Chapter 101

‘Wh-Why is this happening?’
Her heart began to race rapidly, even though she had simply invited him to go with her. Delphina couldn’t understand her own reaction.
On the other hand, Kalliant was lost in deep thought.
‘A play…’
The citizens of Isilia, where culture was far more developed than in other nations, enjoyed reading literature and listening to music. Consequently, theater—which entertained both the eyes and ears of the public—was flourishing.
Since this was a precious opportunity that would be hard to find once he returned to Altair, Kalliant had no reason to refuse. However, he looked at Delphina with a skeptical gaze.
‘It seems more like a benefit for me than a fair price for a favor.’

As the silence stretched on, Delphina’s embarrassment turned into a fear that he might refuse. Tears began to well up in her eyes.
“?!”
Thud!
Kalliant’s eyes widened in surprise, and Bagrova struck his leg with a front paw.
“I’ll hear the details first.”
“Phew.”
Only after his short reply did Delphina’s lips twitch as she let out a sigh of relief. Kalliant twitched an eyebrow and asked for her true intention.
“So, why a play all of a sudden?”
Delphina answered with a bright smile.
“A dear friend of mine landed the role of the female lead in this production. I received an invitation and wanted to go support her. She told me to make sure to come with a wonderful friend.”
