'Time to go back inside, Topaz.'
'Kyuu…'
Topaz was reluctant, but she still obediently returned to Vaan and disappeared inside his body after he gave her the order.
Shortly after, Vaan stepped outside his room after organizing Lady Solana's books and research papers into a neat stack and leaving them on the bedside table.
"Quite an early bird you are, Sir Vaan," a voice directed at him as Vaan exited the room.
"I believe the term 'early bird' is inappropriate when neither of us had gotten any sleep, Lady Solana," Vaan calmly smiled at battle-ready Lady Solana, who leaned against the second floor's balcony.
At that moment, Lady Solana's ashen hair was neatly tied up, and a long sword was strapped to her side. The innkeeper vibe was gone. The air around her was replaced by one who had mastered the sword.
"I've neatly placed your books and research papers on the bedside table."
"How was it? Did you find anything useful?"
