After their discussion Sofia went towards the balcony where the hero is said to be at the moment.

Even though she wanted to do some research, as the princess of the Albanian kingdom it was her duty to greet the legendary hero summoned by the goddess "Aqua" that her kingdom worships.

She swiftly moved through the long hallways of the castle heading straight towards a door that connected to the balcony that towered over the garden of the castle grounds.

Sofia squinted her violet eyes as the dazzling sunlight shone through her pupils. She adjusted her clear glasses as she scanned her surroundings.

There seated near the edge of the balcony beneath a shade umbrella a woman with pearl white skin who seem to be 16 or 17 years old with long waist length glossy black hair that was tied with a single red ribbon sipping her tea.

Her eyes were as dark as the starless night sky, and her clothe were clothing that weren't originally from this world. She was the embodiment of the word beautiful.

There were two knights standing a few meters behind her as guards, when they notice the presence of princess Sofia, they both bowed their heads showing deep reverence.

It didn't take too long for the black-haired woman to also notice the presence of Sofia as well, her black eyes looked warily towards her, seeing that Sofia slowly walked towards the black-haired woman with an unbothered gait.

"Hello there, it's nice to meet you. I am the princess of this nation, Sofia Albanian."

Sofia said lowering her head towards the black-haired woman. Hearing the introduction of the princess the black-haired woman's wariness faded by a small amount.

"It's nice to meet you princess, I am Katsumi Aiuchi."

Katsumi introduce herself with a bow of her own. She was from a very influential family back in Japan, so she was already use to such formalities.

Sofia showed a warm smile from her introduction and opened her mouth.

"Do you mind if I sit here?"

"Oh, not at all, please go ahead."

Katsumi replied, gesturing towards the empty seat.

"Please excuse me then."

Sofia sat on the opposite side of Katsumi; they were now seated before the other. Katsumi promptly poured out the black tea from the metal container into the teacup for Sofia.

A pleasant fragrance whiffled through the air creating a nice atmosphere.

Sofia inhales the fragrance of the tea while admiring Katsumi's skills, the way she moved her hands were beautiful and graceful at least it was clear to Sofia that Katsumi is used to using her hands for these kinds of things.

"I must say your tea skills is really great."

Sofia commented.

"Hm? oh, this well... back home there is a friend of mine that always invited me for tea, so I picked up the skills from drinking with her."

Katsumi replied nonchalantly. Though for a faint moment her eyes became gentle at the mention of her home. Though, it was brief Sofia's sharp eyes had caught sight of it.

".... I see."

"Let's give it time to cool before we start drinking."

"Okay, got it. In the meantime, is there anything you want to ask me? please go ahead."

Sofia said prompting her to ask away. Hearing her suggestion Katsumi placed her right hand beneath her chin and hummed in thought with her eyes close before opening them up again.
