"Hmm. That ribbon fits you perfectly. Now let's go down, I think it should be over by now." Liz said as she dressed Sylvie in new clothing.

"Un." Sylvie simply said as she nodded her head and followed Liz. Unbeknownst to the others, she had already seen what had happened. She watched all of it using magic.

Tok Tok Tok (sfx for Sylvie's soft walking)

"Actually you know what, let me carry you Sylvie." Liz said as she stopped walking and turned around to pick Sylvie up.

"Alright." Sylvie simply said as she let herself be carried.

"Here we go." Liz said as she carried Sylvie and brought her down to the first floor where she saw an Ilya who acted as if nothing had happened behind the receptionist desk.

"Are you done Ilya?" Liz asked her.

"Mhm, oh my Sylvie! She looks so cute! Hand her back to me!" Ilya said as she reached out both of her arms towards Liz.

"Alright, here you go." Liz said as she sighed knowing what Ilya would not let her go if she had kept Sylvie for a second longer. Thus, she decided to hand over Sylvie.

"Aren't you a cute little one now ah?" Ilya said as she placed Sylvie on the counter and started to give her head pats.

"En." Sylvie said as she let herself get head patted.

"Sylvie, I am home." Ms. Aria said as she opened the door to her own house.

"Excuse me." Two voices from behind her said as they also entered her house.

"Sylvie. There are two guests here, come out and greet them." Ms. Aria said once more inside the house.

After hearing no response Ms. Aria decided to go into the living room where Sylvie was studying. What she saw was the books neatly piled ontop of each other.

She then ran into Sylvie's room and opened her closet and cabinets.

"So you went out without telling me huh?" Ms. Aria muttered to herself.

"Er, Maria are you alright? You've been calling somebody for a while now. But there is nobody in this house." The woman asked Ms. Aria.

"Ah, she went out on her own. Even though I told her about the nobles war." Ms. Aria said as she held her forehead.

"Anyway, it's alright. You can just sleep in the spare room for now. That way you'll be safe unless they go after you two again." Ms. Aria said as she lead them to an empty room in her house.

"Alright, thanks for this Aria." The couple said as they thanked her.

"You welcome." Ms. Aria replied.

"By the way, who's Sylvie? Is she your daughter by any chance?" They asked her.

"No, I am merely babysitting her for somebody. She is also my student at the academy." Ms. Aria said.

"How old is she?" They asked her.

"She is six years old." Ms. Aria replied.

"How could you let her out on her own!? What if she gets in trouble!?" They both shouted at her.

"She's alright. Nothing can stop her if she wants to have fun anyway. Her connections are too strong, that even I wonder if it all came from her cuteness." Ms. Aria muttered.
