Philia didn't expect Noland Lee to remove the face towel.

With a look of surprise and admiration, she took a step down and came to Noland, extending her right hand to greet him gently.

"Welcome, Ray Lee. We are delighted that you accepted our invitation."

The distance between the two narrowed, and Philia noticed from Noland's facial expression that he had made modifications to his appearance.

Philia didn't find it inappropriate, as covering one's face is common among wandering wizards.

She maintained her composure with a smile and led Noland up the stepstone.

The two walked into the spacious castle hall, strolling on the mirror-like marble ground tiles and passing through several exhibition rooms displaying Alchemy work of the Cat Society.
