The sound of cutlery softly rang out in the Guild hall's dining room. A small group gathered to enjoy a festive dinner before the day passed.
"Psst. Can you taste anything, Bianca?" Charlotte asked.
"Yep! When I am using Chiara's body, I can. This dessert is sublime, Lottie!"
Hearing Bianca's positive comment, Ned chuckled in satisfaction, "Haha, if you only knew how much Lottie worried about this dinner, Bianca. She was a nervous wreck."
"Neddy! You promised not to tell!"
Despite Charlotte's outburst, her partner simply smiled and massaged her hand. Like magic, she settled down and murmured, "Hmph! I will definitely complain later!"
Those around them laughed awkwardly at the exchange. Despite it being a dinner, only a handful were eating food. The rest were instead eating various monster cores.
