Alice seriously considered the possibility of investigating that unknown existence and then selling Snake of Mercury's location.
The thought flashed by, and Alice quickly figured out that it was not feasible:
"No... If it could chase an Archangel until he was running for his life, then it is at least an Archangel too. It must want to become a god as well. Uh... that means it just hasn't discovered me yet. Otherwise, wouldn't I be its Potion Ingredient too?"
Alice suddenly felt a little sympathy for Charlie King.
After all, they were both being used as Potion Ingredients. He didn't... Ah, damn it, stop thinking about that!
Alice hurriedly pulled her wandering attention back to the matter at hand:
"Reincarnation... No, rebirth or something. Maybe that's a High-Sequence ability? That would explain why it had been a ten-year-old boy before...
"Judging from its reaction, even if its mother—well, she is its mother now—even if Lady Daly miscarried, and it could reincarnate... no, be reborn again, it would probably be extremely troublesome...
"It's a pity I don't know who its mother is... Still, following it would be too dangerous. It is Sequence 1, after all. Even if it is only a fetus now, it definitely has the ability to strike back when dying. And first, I don't know what High-Sequence abilities are capable of; second, I have no way to deal with them...
"I do feel a little sorry for the stall owner and the coachman."

If You Insist, there was anything Alice was worried about in this matter...
*"Goddess bless them. I hope the stall owner's business
