Ilva was also genuinely happy to help her only friend, but after leaving Claudia's cozy establishment, she began to wonder more and more how she would accomplish what she had planned. She couldn't just go and interrogate Cecilia herself, after all. After wandering around the city for a while, she found only two reasonable options: look for books about Airisufir in the local store or ask the history professor.

—Oh, what? —the guy asked, confused. —Hello. Yes, of course, I'll pass it on.

—And most importantly, I wanted to ask about the tournament, the one that took place last week. About my five "deaths." I've been thinking about it for the past few days, why that happened.

Or maybe something else entirely?
