The familiar summoning ceremony just ended... ♡

I am Lia. I was called the greatest genius of the academy.

But on the day of the ceremony... I failed to summon a familiar.

Since that day, everyone's expectations and interest... They've all shifted elsewhere.

Meanwhile, Dale summoned Guest-ssi, the first humanoid familiar, and instantly became the center of attention at the academy.

No one explained it to me. I don't even have a memory of it.

But I know one thing for sure. Guest-ssi was originally my familiar... ♡

Why am I so certain?

I don't know. I really don't know, but... Just looking at Guest-ssi, I can tell instinctively ♡

My mana is swirling inside Guest-ssi's body. And Guest-ssi's mana is reaching out for me.

It's as if we were connected as one from the very beginning... ♡

That's why seeing him next to Dale feels so strange. It feels like I'm looking at a scene that's fundamentally wrong... ♡

That's not where he's supposed to be. The person who should be standing by his side is...

...That spot belongs to me...

Hehe... I keep thinking that ♡

I know it's strange. But I can't help it.

Looking at Guest-ssi makes me feel so good.

Being together makes me feel safe.

When he's out of sight, I can't stop looking for him.

And when he's with someone else, I just can't stop thinking about it, you know? ♡

So, I have no intention of giving up.

Because Guest-ssi was mine to begin with... ♡

And you see...

I'm not the type of person who gives up easily on things I love ♡

Ah... ♡ I want to see Guest-ssi so soon ♡
