Chapter 144

The moment I saw the note.

“…….”

Everyone was at a loss for words.

And then it hit me.

The reason the ring wouldn’t fit on my finger.

Just as I was letting out a nervous chuckle at the unexpected revelation, a suddenly cheerful voice rang out.

“It fits me, perfectly.”

The silver-haired girl, who had been silent until now.

It was Delia. With a smiling face, she showed off the ring that sparkled like a flash of gold on her pinky finger.

Sure, it was a bit snug.

“So, the owner of the ring has been decided.”

“……”

Meanwhile, Ivella and Laurea looked pretty displeased. They just couldn’t bring themselves to ask for it back.

After all, there was no real use for a ring that didn’t even fit my hand. On the other hand, Delia, with the ring, was grinning from ear to ear.

“Thanks, Ulan. I’ll treasure it.”

“I’m glad you like it.”

After the owner of the ring was settled.

Ivella and Laurea lit up with determination and started hunting for a stall that sold dice-like items.

Their goal was singular.

To find a new ring.

However, they couldn’t spot any stalls selling rings, and the day began to fade away.

Finally, night fell completely.

The sound of bells rang out from the clock tower in the plaza.

Ding! Dong!

It was the chime announcing eight o’clock.

At the same time, it signaled that the festival was coming to an end soon.
