Senja swept her mouth with her sleeve and put down the empty bowl.
"Look. Since I don't know where am I and I don't have anywhere to go. There is no harm to confirm my identity. It will be good if I turn out to be that girl…" Although it was impossible. "It will be really amazing actually if I was her, I don't have to bother myself to think where I have to go after this. But, if I wasn't her you need to help me to find a shelter. Deal?"
A smile spread on Utara's face, he like her direct personality, despite Senja's personalities from his memory didn't match with a girl in front of him, but like she said, there was no harm to have a presumption.
"Deal."
"Good. Then can I have my real meal please?" She said while giving her empty bowl to him.

After finished her feast, to refreshed herself she went to bathroom and take half an hour to take a bath and more than one hour to dry her long and thick hair. In the time her hair had dried she felt like her hands were almost out of commission as well.
Huhuhu… I want hairdryer…
Now, she felt better after wearing the new clothes. Utara said, he couldn't get someone to change her clothes because there weren't any women around.
The scene outside from the window was quite captivating. A mountain as a background and evening wind breeze that bringing along a scent of cherry trees around the field.
It felt like back to nature. Excluding her past experienced, Senja like this place, compared to hustle bustle capital city she lived.
She lets loose her hair and after pondering for sometimes rather she would go out or not, someone knocked the door. She tilted her head and unhurriedly opened the door.
The first person that came up on her sight was Utara that smiling to her. He had already taken off his armor and was only wearing a simple purple robe. To see the color of his robe, she couldn't resist for give him a comment.
"Oh, you want to match your robe with my hair? I thought you don't like the color." She popped out her small head.
Upon hearing her comment he retreated one step with dread expression. "No. I never thought that way!" He waved his hands violently, to prove his innocence, "It is purely coincidence. I am not thinking about matching the color." What he said true, he just wore it without giving any thought of it.
"Okey. It's just a joke. Don't be so serious." Senja shrugged her shoulders because she didn't grasp yet the way people from this world interacting with each other. She only gave him perfunctory comment joke but he showed a face like she stripped him naked.
Utara sighed relief, her comment just now like indirectly interpreted him as a pathetic young adult that want to match everything with his lover.
"I came here to introduce you with…" Utara paused for a while because he caught her astounded expression. "… The commander." When he saw her expression, he regretted that he didn't brief her or at least gave a warned before he brought Xiao Tianyou along.
But now, nothing Utara could do. He wished, Senja wouldn't run her mouth in the wrong way or else, it would implicate him as well.
Senja saw Xiao Tianyao with jaw almost dropped.
There, he was standing there beside Utara. Mighty and full of dignity, his body was perfect beyond words, tall and sturdy. He was wearing a grey simple robe, however the aura that he exuded not lose to the emperor itself.
Well, I never see the real emperor. So the comparison not quite right…
