☀️ Arselia and Akonia

- As expected of Bors-san. To think that simple ink on paper could influence so many fates! I should thank him too... Hmm, Ayano-sama, do you think your life would have changed much if you hadn't read that book?

- It's hard to say. Perhaps not so much before joining the coven, but once I was in... I think there would have been a much greater chance of my life taking a turn for the worse. And not just mine. Which could have led to a completely different chain of events than what we have now. So, Bors-san's long-term plan turned out to be truly brilliant.

- Assa Kombini, Your Highness... This store used to belong to a man named Darius; perhaps that's who you remember...

- I remember a boy with long hair, another cheerful dark-haired boy, and Revaipe-san. I stopped coming here after they tried to cheat me out of money... But never mind, it's all minor and in the past. Nice to meet you, Assa-san. Did I understand correctly that you are not just an employee, but the new owner?

- I don't like it.

- Okay. Then... - since the stock items didn't have any images, Ayano couldn't determine what would look best on Ahuli. - Which of these do you prefer? Although, probably not every one will suit, it's easier to try them on.
