But after returning here, Ranni started showing off her "presence" again.
"Ranni?" Asuna held the tiny Ranni, who had crawled out from her chest, in her arms.
"Blaidd won't be coming over. He can't come either," Ranni said again.
"Is that the Eternal City below us?" Kiriko felt her heartbeat quicken.
Since they had already come this far, they were close now.
"Is the Elven Forest over there?" Kiriko murmured.
"The elves' homeland," Ranni said. "Elves are distant relatives of the Rare People. Some also say elves come from a very distant place... Elves are protected by a special power. If you intend to go there, I cannot offer much more advice."
Ranni did not know the specifics.
But what Ranni said did have something to do with the elves' origins, because the elves themselves were a "legacy" from Aincrad.
Calling it "a very distant place" was not wrong at all.
As for calling them distant relatives, under the new setting, they really were "distant relatives."
"I've got it! Melina might know something!" Asuna suddenly thought of something.
Ranni: ...
Asuna:?
Asuna did not hesitate. She immediately sat down at the Site of Grace and began calling for Melina.
Melina had always been "following" Asuna, so as long as Asuna called her at a Site of Grace, Melina would appear.
"I hope I haven't interrupted your honeymoon trip."
Melina was rather "humorous."
Asuna did not know whether to laugh or cry.
It seemed Melina was even "jealous" about something.
But there was no time to worry about that now.
"Melina, do you know about the Elven Forest?" Asuna asked.
"So, you're going there for your honeymoon?" Melina nodded.
"That's not it."
Why did Melina seem a little like a tsundere young lady?
Melina, that wasn't your character setting!
