Now, if you'll excuse me.

"Yeah, I'll see you later. I'll see you again, Shelly!

"Yes, excuse me."

Me and Shelley leave the Sixth Frontier City when they lower their heads.

Since then, nothing has happened in the Sixth Frontier City, and we have to do our job and leave here as usual. Sheila took good care of her, but there was no evidence that she was not a traitor. I really hate it when I have to doubt that this is all I can take care of and that it's good for people...

Then, at dusk again, we head to the fifth border city. I'm familiar with the world of dusk, but I can't afford to be distracted just because it's a safe zone.

"Speaking of which, Shelley was pretty good with her sword."

Really?

"Yeah, I don't think it's going to compare to before."

"... I hope so."

Shelley and I fought together in the battle of the Sixth Frontier City for the first time in a long time. And I was stunned. I wonder how strong it will be in this short period of time. Shelley was completely different from before. Its abilities are among the best of the first class versus magicians. I'm fighting in Squad Seventy-One, but none of them are better off. [M] No... I felt it might be more.

I may have switched to a weapon called a sword, but more than that, Shelley's growth has been spectacular. It wasn't that I didn't believe Mr. Bell, but it was far above my expectations. But Shelley didn't seem to be satisfied with herself.

"I think it's really getting stronger?

"Hmm... I don't know what to say, because the strength of the teacher and Julia is the role model... maybe I'm not satisfied."

"... that's probably what I think based on the Premium vs. Magus."

If Shelley were to ask if she could reach the Premium vs. Mage right now, I would say that I can't reach her yet. I didn't have an absolute criterion, but I still thought it was intuitive. I wonder if it is the same for Shelley. That's what she wants. But I didn't feel any better. [M]

This is her problem and Shelley should face it.

"Old man. Yulia, it's been a while."

"Mr. Gill. It's been a long time."

Arrive at the Fifth Border City. It was Mr Gill who welcomed me there. Looks like it was just off duty today and the timing was good. I shook Gil's big hand and exchanged greetings.

"Your daughter is Sherry. You've grown a lot more than you've seen before."

"Um... I'm really tired of it."

"Ah, I'll give my daughter my regards in the future."

"Yes"

Shelley also seemed to know Mr. Gill.

Shelley and I will greet each other and be guided straight to the base camp. Along the way, Ms. Gill asked about Sofia.

"What do you think? Is he doing good?

"I think we're doing it right. But I think Shelley knows her better because she's on the same team."

"... um, I think Sofia is doing that well. But... maybe it's still a little dragging on."

"... about Raul. Julia, are you listening?

Maybe you're talking about oniisan?

"Ah. Sophia's brother, Raul, went missing at dusk...."

"... Sofia is trying to get over it. I'm confronting the past."

"... I see."

We had nothing more to say about the matter. [M]

"Well, you left your luggage. In the meantime, Julia, go to the lab. He's calling. Shelley's training with me."

I wonder who he is. By the way, Shelley looked surprised and said, "Eh!? I said, well, if you say so, I can't help it.

Research department, right? What's his name?

"Premium vs. Mage, 10th Place in the sequence. His name is Ellie."

"I understand."

"Well, I guess I'll see what Shelly's capable of."

"... oh, soften your hands"

Sherry is completely atrophied, but it's going to be a good experience.

That's what I thought. I broke up with the two of them and went to the lab alone.

"I'm sorry, I came to see Ellie...."

When I entered the lab, there were people doing deskwork and research everywhere. But when I tell that name, everyone looks bitter. [M] Is there something wrong?

"If you go down those stairs, you can go to her lab."

That's what the woman nearby told me, so I thanked her and went down the stairs. [M]

"... that's a long time."

How long has it been since I got down? The stairs seem to be longer than I thought... but the door appears in front of me and I'm relieved for now. Then I knocked with Concon, but there was no reaction. I wonder if he's not here...?

"... excuse me!"

It may not be good to get in on your own, but it is not locked, so I tried to open the door for now. What spread there was a messy room. There were a lot of documents scattered around the desk, but the lab apparently was well placed. When I look at it, I can somehow predict the other person's personality... but where is Ellie?

"Uhh... uhhhh... uhh..."

Huh?

Yes, I heard that voice under the paperwork. Perhaps... I thought, when I slightly retreated from that massive pile of paper, there was... a woman there. Her long, blonde hair was spread out to the desk, and her beauty was seen from her long, closed eyelashes.

"Um...."

"What!? What time is it!?

"... before 10 o'clock"

"Hah... good. I wasn't sleeping too much. Who are you?"

When she wakes up lightly dressing her white coat, she stares at me. [M]

"Um, it's Julia Curtis. Well, I've seen you before, haven't I? In the First Border City."

"Ah! You're Julia!? I'm Ellie! Nice to meet you! Oh, by the way, you're a 24-year-old sister! You're young!"

"Ha... yes"

All of a sudden, he grabbed my hand and shook my hand. No, it was no longer one-sided... but if you're welcome...

"Hmm. Hmm... hey, that's interesting..."

"Um, what is it?

"Actually, I've been wanting to talk to you for a while... just lie there."

"What?

Just hurry up.

"Yes...."

I was swallowed by the way I didn't tell you, and I lay down on something like a bed for the time being. [M] Then she puts her hand against me and feels something. [M]

"Yeah... I knew it. Hmm."

Ellie takes notes on the paper when she says so. That's a lot of speed, too.

Eh?

Yeah, that's good.

When I get out of bed, I peek into her hand. [M]

"What are you doing?

"Discussion of Twilight Syndrome." Because my major is the study of dusk. But after all, I haven't been in Date for two years. The dusk concentration is incredible. Other Premium vs. Mages, too, but you're special. If you're a normal person, you're dead. "

"... do I have something?

"... there are several possibilities. Even the hypothesis I've been thinking about lately... fits. But, well, I'll tell you that one day. I have a case of a traitor."

Really? I understand. "

After that, we discussed dusk with Ellie for a while.
