Book 3: Chapter 13: Lady Sophia's Wish Part 3
“You know, Cyril, I am incredibly angry right now. Do you understand? You do, don’t you? You’re not trying to say that you don’t, are you?”
“I mean… I do understand.”
It was obvious from the kabedon as well, but her eyes looked clearly glassy. This was ‘dark Alicia,’ or perhaps ‘Alicia after falling into darkness’.
This is what she was called in Espressivo of Light and Darkness, and she was a character that one must not anger. This was the reason why she competed for the first place with Lady Sophia.
However, Alicia only became like this when she was sincerely worried about someone. She didn’t become this angry even when she was being harassed by Lady Sophia after she had already fallen into darkness. Therefore, no matter how angry she got, there was no need for me to be afraid–
“Cyril, are you listening?”
“My apologies.”
She was looking up at my face from her lower eye level, still in the kabedon position. Speaking of which, this behaviour was unbecoming of a young Lady. Was Melissa not going to stop her…?
…Nope, Melissa was staring into empty space while smiling as if she didn’t see anything.
