Nelliel looked at the bird now sitting on her shoulder.
'He really is full of tricks, isn't he?'
Since Nelliel wasn't a cadet, she could go in and out of the academy city without getting permission first. Still, it wasn't that easy. But if this bird could really do what her brother was telling her, then it would help her quite a lot.
Her lips slowly curled up into a smile as she turned to her brother, who was sitting on a chair.
"Thank you, brother. You've made things a lot easier for me with this."
He gave her a nod in return.
With that, Nelliel turned around to leave, but just as she placed her hand on the door handle, he called out to her once again.
"There is one more thing."
'There is more?'
She turned around with a silent question in her eyes.
After seemingly mulling over his words for a few moments, her brother asked in his usual dull tone.
"About that baby serpent monster that you told me about last time, how big is it?"
