The Empire of Reimia (3)

"I am quite popular, after all," Moriner smirked, responding to the knock on his room door.

-Hello. Do you remember when you mentioned that you were willing to provide funds if needed? Well, she fidgeted and started playing with her hair, I heard that the "Magnolia" store has a very useful item for those who want to command in battles. It won't be useful in the Competitive events, of course, but maybe a real war will start soon, and... Can I ask you to lend me five thousand Rumis? I know it's a lot of money, but I will definitely return it to you from my officer's salary!

-Don't worry. Moriner noticed the girl's excitement. -I briefly saw your performances in the Competitive events... If because of my stinginess, we now remain without such an excellent commander in battle, these five thousand will hardly outweigh the price of all our lives. -Having said this, he reached for his wallet. -I hope this really turns out to be a useful thing. -he added, counting the bills.

Xenomia goes back to the Academy. If nothing happens along the way, she goes to Moriner and tells him that in the Enclessian Temple, they promised to cleanse his statuette.

-Wow, is that true? -the student was surprised, casting a sad glance at the statuette. -To be honest, over these months, I have somehow gotten used to it, as if I have become related to it... Just kidding, ahem. Of course, I would be very grateful if you could help me get rid of it. At least I can walk down the street without fear.
