Upon reaching the eighty-third layer, Tsutomu ignited a flare. The team swiftly dealt with the gathering monsters before catching sight of two figures in the distance — Rara and Riri, two Birdkins, their red and blue plumage striking against the sky. With their arm-wings spread wide, they glided through the air with effortless grace. They each carried a person, clutched tightly in their talons. Below them, a Conykin raced ahead, leaving a cloud of dust in her wake.
“Ah, Tsutomu! And your comrades too, I see — good day to you all!” Lorena greeted them with a beaming smile, her breath not the least bit labored despite the distance she had covered.
“Hi. Looking forward to working with you,” Tsutomu replied.
“Mm-hmm! Likewise!” she chirped back, her energy infectious.
Tsutomu’s eyes shifted to the two who had descended from the Birdkins’ talons — Misil and a Sorcerer shrouded in shadowy robes.
“…lo…”
“That was a ‘hello,'” Misil interjected with a grin. “This is Madeleine. Not much of a talker.”
“Oh, yes, I see,” Tsutomu responded, nodding.
