— What grievances are you talking about? It's all in good fun! — Stefania exclaimed with a smile. — In that case, I shall take my leave of you for now. But soon enough we will reunite at the nearest competition. I wish you the best of luck from the bottom of my heart!
With these words, Stefania left the chocolate shop and made her way to Adalard:
— May I speak? — the girl saluted out of habit imposed by her father and Amelia, as if they were in a work setting.
Stefania reported on her observations. About how the foreigner had been conversing with Aldelion the entire time, how he had shown the young lad his bow, and about the part of their conversation she had managed to overhear.
— I draw your attention to the fact that this foreigner has apparently impressed and greatly endeared himself to your son, — Stefania concluded. — I cannot say whether that is good or bad. Otherwise, nothing unusual has been observed about him.
Having finished her report, the girl stated that with her lord's permission she would like to conclude this assignment. She justified this by her desire to take part in all the upcoming competitions.
— As the only Knight representing our precious Gildaria, I intend to try to uphold the honor of our region in all the proposed trials. Even if I do not win, I will at the very least not retreat until the very end. I also hope to learn the combat tricks of my colleagues, and later compile a detailed report on my observations. I hope you will allow me this?
