Now Alicia viewed the knight's helmet as a frightening item. After hearing Belle's story, now she could even imagine that there was a severed head inside the knight's helmet.
In order to keep her shadow from getting wild, she had to prevent Belle from continuing the story about the knight helmet's past. The more scary stories she knew behind the knight's helmet, the easier it would be for her to imagine scary things around it.
"I admit that I am indeed afraid of things about supernatural things like that, especially seeing the remnants of the dead people near me. So please don't continue the terrible story behind that knight's helmet." Alicia does not intend to cover her fear in front of Belle, she admits that she is afraid of things related to death or the supernatural. She was indeed embarrassed to admit it, but if she didn't admit it, maybe Belle would continue to tell her until she was satisfied because Belle looked enthusiastic when she told Alicia.
