Valendna stared blankly, her big pretty eyes blinking, a bit of almost-melted ice cream still clinging to the corner of her mouth. Leon was also momentarily stunned. He looked at the bewildered Valendna, then up at Isha.

“…You’re serious?”

“Of course I’m serious. What? Don’t underestimate our Valendna.”

Isha started introducing her treasure like she was talking to some old-timer who didn’t know any better (if you thought there was no such thing as perfection):

“Even though she looks like an elementary school kid on the outside, her mind is no different from that of any normal Dragon King!”

At those words, Valendna slowly lifted her gaze toward Isha.

“Isha, I honestly can’t tell if you’re complimenting me or roasting me right now.”
