The meeting with Orphen, taking in Layla, learning the humanization magic—after dealing with all these things, I found that dawn was about to break.
Most of the residents of the Demon Lord's castle were already asleep by this hour, and under normal circumstances, I'd be getting ready to sleep too. But first, I wanted to deal with Layla's Wing Rot curse.
However, since Layla was still in her human form and didn't have wings, Liliana wouldn't know what to target for the curse-breaking. So, we headed to the training grounds to have her revert to her original form.
—At dawn, the training grounds were occupied by beastmen warriors going through their drills. There were no demons or night elves present.
"U-um, are you sure this is okay...?" Layla asked timidly, rubbing her neck where her collar had been removed.
