However, Akane herself did not behave like Kyoka. Instead, she chuckled and replied, quickly came in, placed the ingredients on the table, and then returned.
Alice smiled and nodded, and then the three of them left, leaving only Seven Sins and Kyoka in the room...
"Who is this person, leaving like that? Is there something in such a hurry?"
"Who knows? Maybe it's something urgent. But I'll have to stay and bother you both. Thank you."
"That's alright, it's good that we can stay. But it seems like you didn't buy too much food this time, so if there are fewer people, everyone will get more."
"..."
Not many were bought...
No wonder.
Indeed, from the very beginning, they probably never intended to stay.
Or……
From the very beginning, perhaps they came looking for her?
No wonder...
That Miss Qian harbored a subtle hostility towards her from beginning to end!
------
"Lady Alice, what do I need to do next?"
"No need, Miss Qian, just keep things as they are. Although the 'witch' is an elf, she is currently in a stable state. It's best not to provoke her; that's an order from above."
"...What I do know is that Kyoka-chan doesn't understand these things, so she might get into trouble~"
"Don't worry, the 'witch' won't do anything for that kind of thing. Just observe her actions quietly for now, and report back to us if anything unusual happens. Sigh, this is a critical moment after all, so we still need to be prepared."
"Yes, then may I contact you directly by phone from now on?"
"Uh... cough, let's do the same as before and transfer the call. Also, try to minimize contact unless absolutely necessary. After all, with that 'omniscient spirit' around, even now, our every move is probably being observed by them. Although, we don't mean any harm."
"...But, the elf might have ill intentions~"
“I know you may hate the elves for killing your sisters’ parents, but the plane crash wasn’t necessarily caused by a spacequake, or rather, it wasn’t necessarily the work of the elves.”
"I know~ but before we investigate thoroughly, I feel like we need something to clearly express our hatred for to give us more motivation~ Ahh~ Where are you~"
"Miss Hermit~"
As she finished speaking, an unprecedented killing intent flashed in Qian's gentle eyes!

"Seven Sins, how have you been lately?"
"What else can I do? It's just like that. I study drawing skills and techniques every day, and my progress is not bad."
"Okay, that's good~"
After hearing the calm reply from the green-haired girl sitting opposite him, Bai Ye smiled and nodded, then took a sip of his coffee and squinted his eyes with a look of enjoyment.
The green-haired girl ignored him and continued to quietly paint, making the drawing of the girl on the canvas in front of her even more detailed and vivid...
"Oh wow~ Qiqi's drawing skills have improved a lot, it's getting more and more risqué~"
"Indeed, and there's a strange, astringent smell to it, Miss Seven Sins. Have you become a bit more aroused lately?"
"...Could you two please talk a little less?"
However, facing the two people beside him, Seven Sins could no longer bear it and was forced to stop, giving each of them a disgruntled look.
Can't these two just stop talking? They're constantly chattering in her ear, making her very uncomfortable.
"Well, everyone's pretty concerned about Qiqi's situation, right? It's been a week, and you haven't told us anything. We're all curious!"
"There's nothing to be curious about. It's just drawing, isn't it? You're very familiar with it."
Especially cartoonists in this profession, the harassment against her has been almost constant.
Despite her drawing skills being far inferior to hers, this person still relentlessly teased her, and the teasing wasn't even about her drawing skills; it felt more like simple gossip.
And more importantly...
"If you want to see it, you can go see it yourself. I didn't forbid you from seeing it."
At this point, Seven Sins couldn't help but roll her eyes at a certain old lady with short white hair.
She used to spy on everything everywhere, but now she doesn't need to?
"That's precisely why I want to know—because it's not appropriate to spy on you. But it feels a bit inappropriate to spy on you guys, haha~ I feel a little bad about it, Ms. Akane~"
At this point, Nia scratched her head a little embarrassedly and chuckled, which made Nanami roll her eyes again.
She keeps saying sorry to others, but when has she ever cared about such trivial matters?
"If you really want to know, we can go together today. Anyway, I'm going later."
"Uh, I think I'll pass then. I feel like I'd be under a lot of scrutiny if I went there."
"Then I'm too lazy to say anything."
Nia was probably afraid of being criticized by Kyoka. That makes sense; it seems like no matter who goes, Kyoka will be watching and criticizing them. It's normal that Nia didn't want to go.
And she really doesn't like interacting with outsiders.
But to be honest, she felt that the two Izumi sisters were actually quite nice people.
If I really had to describe her, I'd say she's similar to Mei and the others, and should probably be considered part of Nia's "anime/manga fandom."
Why does it feel like Erya is a little afraid of her?
However, what she didn't know was that Nia wasn't afraid of Kyoka. On the contrary, when she met Kyoka before, they got along quite well.
What she was afraid of was Qian's side...
"Alright, Erya, there's nothing more to ask. If you're really that worried, I'll go and take a look for you. Is that alright?"
At this moment, Bai Ye also spoke to Er Ya.
He wasn't sure what Erya was trying to do either; this time it seemed a bit roundabout and overly verbose.
However, since she insisted on it so much, there was no harm in him going to see her. In any case, he hadn't visited them for two or three days, so it wouldn't be a problem for him to go and see what Seven Sins was doing and how they were doing.
"That's great~ Ah Ye~ You really are my good boyfriend~"
"..."
Is it really necessary to be this happy?
Seeing the silver-haired woman next to him laughingly wrap her arms around his neck and pounce on him, kissing his cheek, Bai Ye couldn't help but silently complain to himself.
But since his girlfriend said so, he figured he'd go help her with something small.
------
"Should we tell them about this?"
After Bai Ye and Qi Zui left, only the two of them remained in the room.
Kurumi slowly refilled her teacup and then softly asked Nia across from her.
She hasn't said much since then, not because she felt she couldn't get a word in edgewise, but because she didn't really want to talk.
Moreover, it's not really appropriate to say that.
"Maybe it's better not to, and there are some things that are harder to say out loud."
Erya then revealed a calm smile, different from her previous shameless one, though this smile seemed to carry a hint of pressure.
"After all, even though this matter has nothing to do with us, I feel that we could have gotten along well, but once we talk about it, we might lose that bridge of communication. After all... we are elves!"
As Erya spoke her last sentence, the bitterness on her face became even more pronounced.
There are indeed some differences between elves and humans.
Even though they were originally human, and can still be friends with Mei, Ayano, and Asahina, lifespan is still a problem they may have to face sooner or later.
Of course, if that time really comes, there might be a way to prolong their lives, or turn them into elves or something.
With her omniscient angelic abilities, finding a way to extend her lifespan shouldn't be too difficult for her.
However, there was a subtle distance between her and Miss Qian.
Ah Ye was unaware of this estrangement.
That is……
She is an elf.
Miss Qian has a grudge against the elves.
The sisters' parents died in a plane crash caused by a spacequake.
That happened six years ago, which is quite a long time ago.
But for her, it might just be a matter of a blink of an eye.
Although they appeared relaxed on the surface, they were actually harboring deep hatred for the elves.
Miss Akane has always been a member of a magicians' association.
Although she herself had no magical talent, she wanted to know the cause of spacequakes; she didn't believe it was just a natural phenomenon.
Then, she found the source of the spacequake and the existence of the elves.
· ······Request flowers· ··
Hermit, the Ice Spirit.
This spirit has appeared only a handful of times, and it has been relatively gentle, never attacking anyone.
...But only once, because there were no witnesses or "survivors," it is unclear whether she had actually killed someone.
That was the time when Miss Qian's parents died.
"Sigh, to be honest, I feel like I've been dragged into trouble again. If we really talk things out, maybe we can clear up the gap between us, but if we've got the wrong person or the wrong target, and it's too late to make amends, then I'll really regret it."
No one knows whether the "hermits" killed their parents.
