Irene Leeway, 3rd child of Elric Leeway, cousin of Bernette Leeway and the younger sister of Elaric Leeway, the guy I fought on the rooftop after returning from Avalon.

Her green long luscious hair that reached her waist gave her an ambient look when gazing at her from far away, sitting in this garden. Getting a proper look, her green eyes, behind those circular glasses, were currently engrossed in the book in front of her.

'If I am not wrong, she is currently enrolled in the first year of Arcadia Academy and her exams are really close… now that makes me wonder,' I thought before speaking,

"Shouldn't you be in the Academy, studying for your exams?"

She turned at me with a not so surprised look as she spoke,"Yeah. That is true." Her voice was tired, to say the least, as if she was in distress or something.

"You don't look as energetic anymore," I walked closer as I remarked before reaching closer to the bench on which she was sitting and sat beside her.

She turned to me for a few moments before speaking,"Well… you look unusually free for someone who has such an important task to do, " and I looked at her with a small smile before speaking.

"I have my ways to create some time for relaxation."

She looked at me before speaking,"then have your break. I won't be disturbing you anymore," and then moved away from there as I kept gazing at her.

'It won't work, if I can't even initiate a conversation… is there something that I can collect based on previous memories? Hmmm… now that I think about it… there really is nothing that I know about her,' I was lost in thought before I saw her vanishing from my eyesight.

Well… looks like I need to look up some information. Hmmm… there must be something that I can use…

I then stood up, sighing, before sauntering towards the outside area. Since there is nothing I can do here, I might as well go look at the town nearby. I heard there are herbs here that are quite rare… maybe I can find something special…

A few minutes later, I reached the outside gate and bumped into Irene here once again as she was on her way out. Watching me coming towards her, she narrows her eyes before asking in a doubtful tone,"are you by any chance following me?"

I look at her and think a little before speaking,"does that bother you?"

Her serious expression returns and she speaks in a dominant tone,"it does."

"Then I am probably not following you," I spoke with a slight chuckle before moving towards the gate and then walking outside. The castle was a bit inside the forest with only one way towards the market, so all I could see was a single way out with forest all around.

There was a car parked not too far from us and I saw Irene passing by me before reaching the car and leaving the castle. The car left in a few moments and I sighed before my eyes turns red as I mutter,'Blood Sacrifice: Zeroth Moon'

Then I enhance the mana in my foot and around my eyes before taking a deep breath as I mutter again,"Shallow steps" as I begin walking as fast as I can without making even a single sound.

And then…

I kept running as fast as I could. At first there were some instances of my steps leaving behind traces, but later on, even those vanished as I adapted to the road and its structure.

It took me about 15 minutes and I saw Irene's car almost reaching the town and I ran even faster before reaching the town's gate where the guards were present. I stopped at a little distance from the guards and slowly began walking towards them from there onwards.

The guards examining me were a bit alarmed before one of them came and asked for my identity. I showed him my ID card, which I got from Bryxton, and he nodded before letting me in.

'Hmm… they aren't bothered by me coming from the forest area… or more like they aren't really that interested, huh?' I thought as I looked at the guards as they hurriedly approached the car coming in their direction.

Irene got out of the car and the guards bowed to her before letting her get in safely inside the town. I moved in silently as I saw the billboard of the town with 'Rosemary Town' written on it.

It had a western village type look, with mostly wooden houses preserving the ancient beauty of this place. Though that doesn't really interest me, so let's move to the herbs and see if we can find something that we can use later on.

"Stop right there!" Though before I could even take a single step, I heard a familiar voice from behind and surely enough, it was Irene with a slightly shocked look before she moved towards me.

The guards, hearing her voice, looked at me before they surrounded me immediately. One of the guards even tried to touch me, however,

"What are you doing?!" Irene, a bit baffled at the guard's conduct, shouted at them, making them take a step back with a confused look on their face.

"You aren't really familiar with how things work outside, huh?" I spoke with a slight smile as I looked at her half confused face before moving towards her and speaking,"for now, order them to go back to their own work. And let's get something to eat nearby, all right? Is that fine with you?"

Though a bit reluctant, she still nodded before ordering the guards to go back to their work. The guards, though a bit reluctant, still left without uttering a single word. Well, they were looking at me with complex emotions all right, so there was that too…

Then Irene and I moved towards the nearest restaurant.
