(??~??) Chomp!
Today was a crisp, clear autumn day.
So Annie naturally headed straight to the lowest level of Wangshu Inn. There, she openly sat at the enormous wooden lakeside dining platform, where numerous bamboo chairs and tables made the place look clean, elegant, and lively, and wolfed down the dishes she had just ordered as breakfast and lunch.
That was right!
Although it was already afternoon, to Annie, who had only just gotten out of bed not long ago, it was still early. So there was naturally nothing strange about coming down to this scenic open-air platform only now to eat her "breakfast."
At this moment, her little bear Tibbers lay motionless on one side of the bamboo table, completely lacking the mighty, imposing, and savage air it had displayed last night while beating up that "Three-Eyed Five-Manifested Adeptus."
Obviously, at a certain crucial moment last night, Annie really had been the one to act and instantly summon it back. Yet even now, she still refused to mention what had happened, as though nothing had happened at all.
Of course, it was also possible that she knew what had happened last night, but those things simply weren't as important as the delicious food on the table before her?

(Tibbers continued lying on the table without reacting. It didn't mind anyway. In any case, it had been acting under orders to drive away the villain who had come snooping in the middle of the night, and in the end it hadn't even gotten to eat. So the matter could simply pass. Naturally, it would have been even better if a certain troublesome little mistress hadn't casually tossed it into a water tank last night and boiled it there for half the night as a cleaning treatment.)
