<sub>[Getting used to this place isn't anything easy, especially not to Ruca. However after a few days, the boy decides to take a look around the city...

...mainly to look for the library.

But since walking without a clue where he should go doesn't seem like a good idea, Ruca thought it might be better to just ask.]</sub>

...Um, I hope I'm not bothering anyone, but... I'm looking for the library...

I know but I still don't want to hurt you ...even if I have to.

[Action]

[demonicbookworm]

I don't want to fight you either, but... you can't expect me to join Arca, after all what happened until now.

[Action]

[ashihara]

It was worth a try.

But at the moment, we're at a standstill.

[Action]

[demonicbookworm]

Chitose, I...

_{[this is probably pointless but...]}

I know that you don't like Iria, but... Why don't you leave Arca and join us instead?

[Action]

[ashihara]

[Blink blink. Was he really suggesting that?]

And why should I leave Lady Mathias's side to join you? I don't believe in your ideals so why would you suggest such a thing?

[Action]

[demonicbookworm]

...Isn't it just the same with you asking me to join Arca?

[Action]

[ashihara]

[Good point]

Perhaps but I'm afraid I can't join you. I cannot betray Lady Mathias.

[Action]

[demonicbookworm]

...Is Mathias really such a great person in your opinion?

[Action]

[ashihara]

[Before she could answer]

It looks like we're at the library, Ruca. [avoiding one question at a time]

[Action]

[demonicbookworm]

_{[he's not going to say anything about that then.]}

Yeah. It looks like it.

[Action]

[ashihara]

[She waited for Ruca to go to the library first. She would like to answer back to his question but she wasn't so sure herself. She wanted to believe Mathias was a rather kind person under it all but now...she wasn't so sure.]

[Action]

[demonicbookworm]

_{[He goes first, but stops before entering the library.]}

Chitose, are you going?

[Action]

[ashihara]

[She nodded before going after Ruca]

Yes, I apologize for the wait. Is there anything you're looking for in the library?

[Action]

[demonicbookworm]

I was hoping to find some information about this place in the library, but... according to the person who told me where the library is, it seems learning something about the city or this world won't be that easy.

[Action]

[ashihara]

Then doesn't that mean we should try harder?

I'll help you look out for any kind of information about this place. I already talked to some people who are willing to tell me what they have learned.

_{[He looks at her a little surprised at first, but he smiles eventually.]}

Thank you, Chitose.
