After Rasmus told Erlina the reason for his visit, Erlina told the servants to lead them to the guest rooms to let them rest before they continued their journey. However, she was interested in Daryus and asked him to stay because she wanted to know more about him. They were the only ones left in the meeting hall, and Daryus was a bit nervous because of how intense her gaze was and how it affected him like never before.
"Be at ease, Doctor..." Erlina said with a gentle smile and soothing voice. "I'm not like him. I'm not that terrifying, and I'm not going to make you feel uncomfortable with words," she chuckled softly.
Daryus forced a smile and a soft laugh as he fixed his glasses. He didn't expect that someone could portray Rasmus that spot on with a single sentence. He began to notice that Erlina might have the same view of the world as Rasmus, but her personality and the way she placed herself in the world were different.
