The narrator tells us that in the forest, there is a flower called the garuda, which is believed to be the source of magic. The garuda juice is a magical training tool for mages, who can use it to advance after absorbing it. The narrator says that if he were a descendant of a tulip family, he would use the juice to stab the current duke of the family. He also says that he almost killed the duke when he asked him about the promise he had made with the tulip family. When the narrator asks why he is staring at him in such a daze, the elf replies that he is growing up in the church, and that he does not know how to judge situations. He feels guilty, but the elf says that she is really amazing, and he is not excited about going back to the church. He gives her some soap, which she will use when she needs it, and she asks him if he plans on going back. He says that his mind is blank, and the elf asks if he can bother her for a bit.
