When we entered the entrance hall, I was hugged by Rafael who was waiting.

He seems to have apparently already been contacted regarding the carriage being attacked.

I wonder if the coachman is alright.

[I was worried. Are you hurt anywhere?]

[Nicole protected me so I'm unharmed.]

[I see. I can't keep calm here so let's go to my room.]

He puts his arm around my hips as always as Rafael invited me to his room.

Nicole said he needs to contact a lot of people so he entrusted me to Rafael and hurriedly left the dorms.

There's a separate place exclusive only to the royalty, and although we're going towards Rafael's room through the junction passage, but when we arrived instead of saying it's a room, it's more like a mansion.

Even though we've already passed the entrance hall, there's another entrance hall ahead of the junction passage.

[Waah...]

A chandelier is decorated on the ceiling, its glimmer is incomparable to the one I saw at the salon that I couldn't hold the voice I leaked out.

[I remember this is Sheryl's first time here. The bedroom is on the second floor, but do you want some tea in the meantime?]

[Yes, please.]

I don't know why he told me where the bedroom is, but we decided to stay in the living room to talk.

Not only the furniture in the room, but also the paintings and vases decorated in the hallway exudes a majestic atmosphere.

Rafael pulled my hand while I was overwhelmed by its luxury, and made me sit on the sofa so that we're sitting side by side.

I somehow feel like the degree he glues himself next to me seems higher than usual...

[When the coachman sent news to me about you, I thought my heart would stop.] 

[So he was alright.]

[Yeah, it seems like the assailants retreated the moment they realized that you're gone. How did you do it? I heard that the cabin was completely separated from the carriage.]

As I thought, that's what he's curious about.

But it is related to the Cadir Family's secret art so I just vaguely explained it as Nicole's wind magic.

[Although I can't deny that Camille could have been the target, it's also possible that it's you they're after. Do you have idea about it?]

[It's not that I don't but...]

It was my transfer to the dorm that was made an opportunity to attempt to kidnap me.

But the ringleader of that incident should have already been captured by Bellom-sensei.

Although it's hard to say that there is no other person that doesn't have the same idea, I wonder?

Thinking that it won't cause a problem even if I told Rafael about it, I decided to share with Rafael the circumstances during my transfer.

[A madman, huh...]

[Yup, but Bellom-sensei has already dealt with him. It's uncertain if the incident this time is related to that.]

[Fumu, I'll just gather information on my side just in case. We can't let anything slip at any cost. Sheryl should also refrain from going out until the assailants' purpose is known.]
