"Alice, do tell me. Why exactly are you calling my sister as yours?"
"Hm? Can I not? Does it make you uncomfortable or something?"
It did not, to be honest, but Leon was genuinely curious about what got them this close in the first place.
Alice blinked, then added.
"It was her who told me to call her that, though? And we do not really mind it."
Looks like Alice understood exactly what he was trying to ask.
"After you went off to the Merlin Kingdom, I spent quite a lot of time holed up inside her office. You could say we became pretty close, spending all that time together."
'Huh… that is new.'
So she was there for a reason and he was right.
"I heard that the Blood Tower had a teleportation gate, so I went there to request her to let me use it, to gather some of my materials for your weapon."
"Wait, you actually used the teleportation gate? Where exactly did you go?"
Alice smirked.
"Not telling."
"What?"
