Just Once, Looming Danger!

...

A few moments later, Menerva managed to calm down.

Not too long before she did so, One Shot Brick's group arrived on the scene, and Meng Jiang left to greet them, leaving Izroth alone with Menerva.

In the end, Meng Jiang was too far away to hear what Izroth and Menerva were discussing; however, she believed that it was for the better that she did not know. After all, based on Menerva's previous actions alone, it was not difficult to understand a thing or two.

"Have you calmed down?" Izroth asked.

Menerva gave a slight nod in response. She remained silent for a while before finally speaking out.

"I have revealed to you an unsightly blemish. I am aware that my present position is not ideal when it comes to requesting a favor. However... I beseech Palace Master Izroth to retain the accounts of my life nearer to his mind than to his lips." Menerva spoke softly.
