ACIEL'S DIARY : INDIGO
SHEET 4.13: PROHIBITIONS & WARNINGS

After returning from the UKS with Mona and Ella, the two of them immediately rushed me to the dining room of the inn. It seems that because I fainted, Mona proposed to wait for me so that we could eat together.

And of course, Ella who was the biggest person in charge of why I fainted didn't have a single vote against it. We immediately headed to the booking table and picked up one table with three seats.

It wasn't long until our order arrived. While discussing the task of observation and the experience of exploration in the forest, we filled the stomach and told some things.

Even though I mentioned the word 'we' here, most of the ones who told me were Mona. I can understand that because of the personality explosion Ella described earlier but seeing it like this is indeed a little surprising.

"Hm? What's the matter, Aciel? You daydream like that."

"uh? Ah, there's no. Just thinking about a few things."

Mona, who was sitting next to me, brought her face closer and made me a little surprised. His expression was completely different.

After hearing my answer, Mona smiled brightly and laughed.

"Geez, you are indeed easy to daydream~ try to notice when someone tells you, ya~ or I will punish you."

Mona blinked her eyes, at first glance I could see a small star coming out from there. He immediately returned to his chair and hummed.

"Ah, yes. Sorry, I won't repeat it."

Really, who is this guy?

My brain is a little hot because it's trying to adapt to this dramatic change. I have to calm down, it's not good to think too much about it. But from earlier Ella also did not speak, what she ... Huh uh?

I looked the other way, where Ella was but all I found was a girl who covered her eyes with blinders, leaned her body on a chair and fell asleep.

This girl ... What the hell is he doing?

It seemed like the expression on my face was clearly read by Mona, she answered my confusion while shaking the spoon and fork in both her hands.

"Hm? Are you curious about Ella? Relax, he's always been like that. He'll wake up by himself when we finish eating later, no need to worry too much about him. That's pretty weird 'cause she's always asleep when I tell her stories."

As expected of his friend.

Ella had adapted from earlier, understanding the situation that would occur and preparing a way to give everything to me who still did not know anything.

Damn delinquent girl.

"Oh yeah about Ella falling asleep, I have some interesting stories!! Try listening!!"

In the end, I was the one who listened to all of Mona's stories while we were eating. He didn't give me the slightest gap to breathe or ask back.

Until thirty minutes passed, the clockwork pointed at the number six, with the yellowish-red sky beginning to darken. And as we started to finish the food and the story, some kids went through the hallway and walked the other way.

Mona raised her hands high and shouted cheerfully towards them.

"Is there something?"

He approached one of the girls and asked her. The girl seemed to be a little confused but she immediately replied quickly.

"Ah, yes. We are asked to gather in the field behind the inn at six in the afternoon, isn't that already on the schedule? The teacher will share the observations we made today and provide another list of objects for tomorrow. Don't be late, yeah."

The girl waved her hand and walked away, Mona waved back.

"Oke~ thanks so much~"

Mona immediately sat down on her chair again and before she could say anything, Ella who took off her blindfold spoke.

"I heard it. Since we've already finished the meal, what if we leave right away?"

"Yes, I agree too."

"Eh? Aciel, are you okay? You have only been aware of the UKS before and may still not be fully healed. It's good to rest and not force yourself."

"Hm? No, it's okay. My jaw hurt a little but that's it. No need to worry about it, after all this is not something serious ... Ah, but I'm going to the toilet for a while so you can just go ahead and not have to wait for me."

"That's how, he said. Mona, let's go."

"Ah, yes ... But if you feel bad, just call us right away, huh? There's no need to feel awkward, after all we're friends."

Just a little.

"Yes, I'll let you know if that happens."

After seeing the two girls turn in the hallway and walk away, I immediately tidied up the dining table, bought some sandwiches and headed for the toilet. When I entered it, I found a black cat sitting while wagging its tail.

"So Master, what do you want? To get into an inn like this, haven't I banned it before? Is that something that needs to be resolved soon?"

The master raised his butt and walked towards me, circling my legs.

"Yes, that's it. It's something very important."

"Hm? What's that about?"

After circling my legs, the cat walked forward and turned towards me.

He looked me in the eye and the gaze he put out slowly went towards my hand, where I held two packets of sandwiches. Realizing that made me breathe.

He's just hungry, huh? It doesn't matter anyway, after all I bought this because I saw Master walking through the hallway earlier.

"This is Master, eat it all."

I unwrapped the bread and gave it to Master, the cat ate it voraciously without leaving a single crumb on the floor. When I saw it like this, inevitably it raised some doubts in me.

Is this cat really a high-level Spirit? I've thought about it many times. But there are in some moments the Master is reliable and the form of both is also quite cool.

I guess it is true that Master belongs to a high-level Spirit group with three different forms.

Speaking of that, I have never seen the third form of Master's.

About what it is, huh?

"All right, I'm full. Then I'll go."

"Hm? Go where?"

"There is a strong spirit of my acquaintance who dwells in the western part of this mountain, I will try to meet him and talk about some things. That's the important thing I want to tell you."

"Meeting with high-level Spirit acquaintances ... I thought Master came just because he was hungry. I'm sorry for thinking about something so disrespectful."

"I don't need that fake apology ... Just leave it aside, for the near future as much as possible do not approach the western part of the mountain. There will be a great feast held by the Spirits, people like you who have great Spiritual Energy will definitely be dragged into it. I came to give you that information, tell that to your friend."

"My friend? What does Master Mona mean?"

"Yes, his Spiritual Energy is indeed not that big but there is still a possibility that he will be dragged into the party. If that happened, then he would definitely be made into a party appetizer. You don't want it, do you?"

"Okay, I'll tell him later. Oh yeah, what about the other kids?"

"Hm? They must be okay, right? There was a standard limit to measuring Spiritual Energy in order to participate in the party. All those ordinary kids won't meet the standard with the weak energy they have, you don't have to worry about it."

"Alright, then I can calm down."

"Hmph, what if one or two kids are missing? That's not a big deal. I'll remind him again, lest you approach the western part of the mountain."

"Yya~ yes~ I understand it~"

"Curtain, damn boy."

The master jumped up in the air and just disappeared. With that, I immediately walked out and headed towards the inn grounds.

The western part of the mountain ... Big party ... That sounds interesting. I also still have the mask that Ebi lent me before.

What if I try a little to infiltrate?

It would probably be a big deal so I better undo it.

For the time being.
