Remembering Leki sitting all alone out in the wasteland, she told Claiomh, “Come to think of it, I saw Leki. Yesterday. I’m not sure about where, exactly, but...it was pretty far from here.”

Claiomh turned to her and opened her mouth, but didn’t say anything. She must have wanted to say something. Lottecia saw her lips move fruitlessly once, twice, three times. It seemed less like she was hesitant to say what she wanted and more like she wasn’t sure what to say.

Lottecia took the warmed pot off of the stove, lining up two mugs she’d brought with her next to the sink. Being careful not to spill any of the drink as she poured it into the mugs, she said, “I don’t know where, but it seemed like he was headed somewhere.”

“He went back to the forest,” Claiomh muttered. Lottecia didn’t hear her very well, so she turned her ear in that direction and Claiomh spoke up again, louder this time. “He might not come back.” Her voice was shaking slightly.

She couldn’t think of any grounds for doing so, but she decided to deny that. Lottecia shook her head. “It’ll be all right.”

Just then, there were footsteps, as if perfectly timed to interrupt them. The grating sound of boorish boots on the wooden floor. They approached the door and then it opened.

Who should appear from the other side of the door but the black sorcerer himself.

“...Orphen,” Claiomh murmured. She sounded less surprised and more taken aback.

The black sorcerer turned to her and nodded. “Yeah.”

“What happened?” Lottecia asked him.

Orphen was looking around the kitchen absentmindedly. He seemed to be in a big hurry about something.

He sighed and said, “I’m looking for Damian.”

He was talking about that ghostlike man—remembering him, Lottecia frowned. Orphen had called him a white sorcerer, but she’d been able to tell he was a sorcerer of some kind from how he seemed to look down on people as if it were completely natural.

Sheesh... Are all sorcerers like them? Lottecia scowled, including the black sorcerer who wasn’t saying a thing to Claiomh in her criticism.

“Well, he’s not here,” she told him, glancing at Claiomh.

She was looking up at Orphen, but she also seemed relieved that the conversation didn’t require her input at all. Lottecia couldn’t understand everything going through her mind, but she thought she could read the girl’s emotions relatively well.

For the time being, Lottecia decided to put the pot back and put out the fire. There was a little milk left that hadn’t fit in the two mugs.

There was no response from the black sorcerer while she searched for a sugar bowl. Eventually, he said, “Right. I’ll try to persuade him to revive Winona again...”

“Revive?” Lottecia asked, taken aback. She knew there had been some commotion, but she hadn’t heard that that unpleasant woman had gotten caught up in it.

The black sorcerer had been about to flee the kitchen, but he stopped and crossed his arms, nodding. “She got really hurt in that attack. Damian’s the only one who’d be able to heal her.
