The next day, after alchemy class finished, Ard immediately headed to the library because Mirea was usually there. He purposely brought only Eva with him to the library. When they entered, he immediately looked around and found Mirea sitting and reading at a long table with several books piled in front of her. Without hesitation, he walked straight to Mirea with Eva.
"Mirea," Ard greeted.
Mirea looked up, holding the frames of her thick glasses and lowering them. Her face immediately brightened when she saw Ard, then returned to its usual expression when she saw Eva standing next to Ard.
"What is it, Ard?" Mirea asked.
Ard and Eva sat down across from Mirea. Ard then recounted what happened last night when he caught the Durnhill Kingdom's secret forces who seemed to be monitoring Eva. As Ard spoke, Mirea's face became serious and thoughtful.
"Hmm... those forces are the ones who escort Nikolai and Julius. I was going to try and ask Nikolai about this later," Mirea said.
