"Last moment, huh." Noel muttered and said, "I guess I can say it's been a while, right? Kirika, so I should say Miss Loetzel?"

"How—" Kirika was stunned, staring at the wall as if 'looking' at Noel.

Even Lokhar was stupefied and asked, "Loetzel? A family name? You're a noble?"

"I have just realized it not long ago. I guess, you are the girl that I met almost a decade ago."

"A decade ago? You still get to know that person?" Lokhar became even dumbfounded. However, it wasn't over because Kirika was going to drop bombs after bombs.

"Yeah, I remember. It was as simple as changing yourself."

"Those words meant a world to me back then. I started training my body and changing for the better until I became like this. And before long, those people who looked at me with contempt had to flock around me."

"Wanted? You didn't plan to do it anymore?"
