After the Meeting

"After the meeting, do you really think we're just going to walk home together like nothing happened?" the woman holding a sword asked. She stood alongside two other individuals, her gaze fixed upon the three figures waiting several meters ahead of them.

The three individuals stood beneath the trees of the Shade Forest, seemingly waiting for them to arrive. None of them appeared surprised to see the opposing group, as though they had already expected this confrontation.

"She must be here to fight me yet again," an elf said, his smile widening. "Do you never get tired of losing, Magic Swordswoman?"

The little girl gaze then shifted toward the two individuals standing beside Eris.
