"Ah! Clara!"

Even from a distance, Noah Frozenheart’s eyes gleamed with interest.

At the same time, the tiger beastkin girl effortlessly weaved through the crowded street without bumping into anyone.

Then, the moment Clara came into view—

She kicked off the ground, flashing her signature bright smile.

"Come hereee!!"

"Hiiik…!"

Noah closed the distance in an instant, attempting a hug.

But Clara dodged smoothly, positioning herself perfectly behind Rohan.

Noah didn’t insist on a second attempt after missing her initial pounce.

Instead, she turned toward Ichinose, speaking excitedly.

"No-se! Did you see that?! I told you! She’s really fast!"

"Noah… Apologize first. Even if you're both girls, grabbing someone without permission is still a crime."

Ichinose’s chiding tone made Noah pout.

At her insistent glare, Noah sighed, drooping her tail and ears as she muttered an apology.

Clara gave a quick nod, saying it was fine, though her eyes darted around anxiously.

'W-wait… Could she be…?'

The woman standing next to Noah Frozenheart—

Jet-black hime-cut hair, closed eyes, delicate and refined features, a graceful air, and a petite frame even smaller than Clara’s—@@novelbin@@

Everything matched perfectly.

'Ichinose Yui…!'

Like Noah, she was impossible not to recognize.
