Although the strange Wax Stones Violet made could simplify the conditions for Shade's use of the Words of Sublimation, the Words of Sublimation were still the Words of Sublimation. Even if Shade found Wax Stones again, he could not use them to summon Witches for dates. He would only save them for critical moments when he needed their help.
Therefore, to date the ladies of the Fifth Epoch, he still had to rely on the [Time Transfer Station].
After Violet left, Chloe came over to Shade. Though the silver-haired Witch Emperor was not very tall, she carried herself with great authority. Her body had also become translucent, but Chloe did not mention the "Moon Mark." Instead, she asked Shade:
"Do you know where the Castle Key is now?"
Shade naturally understood. He held out his hand to Chloe.
"There is only one answer left: the key is on you."
Chloe revealed a satisfied smile, took out the key, and placed it in Shade's hand.
"Hmph~ If you hadn't summoned me this time, I wouldn't have given Winnie to you completely."
Then she embraced Shade as well. Though reluctance filled her eyes, she said nothing more.
Chloe held Shade's hand and looked at Ellie beside them. Ellie, who had been idly blowing at the wind, immediately looked over. There was not much difference in their heights, but standing together, Ellie's timidity was easy to see.
"Chloe, are you leaving?"
The Ice Witch Emperor patted her Little Unicorn on the head.
"It must have been hard on you, coming to this spacetime alone. Remember to listen to Shade, eat properly, and I'll come visit you again."
"Okay, Chloe~"
The young lady with streaked hair at her forehead reddened around the eyes, so Chloe gave her a hug as well—an oddly strange sight.
