Although Bettina was now a senior in high school, her height remained around 155 centimeters and hadn't grown much. Back when she worked at 'Dream of Glazed Glass' as 'Deklabi' alongside Tilan, there was only about a 2cm difference between their heights—not significant. But now that Tilan had reached 165cm, Bettina had hardly changed.
"Go ahead and laugh, I really don't feel like moving," Deklabi felt that the two-hour hike that morning was equivalent to half a month of her exercise routine.
"It seems that I have no choice but to indulge you," Seraphiel said as she lifted Bettina's legs, then supported her lower back and cradled the petite girl in her arms. She then unfurled her broad, white wings and easily caught up with Tilan and the others ahead.
Gently landing in front of the group, Seraphiel set Bettina down and steadied her.
"Sorry to keep you waiting." She then patted Bettina, who was still pretending to be asleep, and got her to talk with Tilan and the others.
