Mr. Pantalone has no crazy plans today.

Looking at the scenery that came into her view, her first thought was...

An unfamiliar ceiling?

Then a sense of bewilderment arose in her mind, in her memory.

She was supposed to be being hunted by others when she once again fell under the deep influence of the demon's power, and then killed even more innocent people...

After recalling what she had done, that invisible fear and panic resurfaced in her heart once again.

She... killed someone again...

Just as she was feeling somewhat lost and fearful, a fiery red figure suddenly entered her field of vision, greeting her warmly with a bright smile on his face.

"Hey, you're awake!"

The sudden appearance of the fiery red girl startled her.

The unfamiliar figure made Cole reveal her fear and unease in the presence of strangers. Noticing Cole's unease, the fiery red-clad girl comforted her while introducing herself.

"Don't be afraid, it's safe here and no one will hurt you. By the way, let me introduce myself. My name is Amber, and this lady next to me is Yura. She's the one who brought you back."

"Speaking of which, the Knights didn't prepare any extra dormitory rooms. This room was given up by Yura herself."

The girl, who introduced herself as Amber, greeted her with a friendly smile as she introduced herself.

At the same time, she introduced to Cole a girl with dark blue hair who was standing to the side with her arms crossed, looking indifferent.

After seeing the girl's face clearly, fragments of her previous memories surfaced in Kolai's mind. She recalled the girl who suddenly appeared and displayed extraordinary strength after she was deeply affected by the power of the demon god.

Even when facing her, who possessed demonic power and was out of control, he was able to control her and suppress her in every way.

After recalling things related to Yura, Kore's face, which had previously only shown some unease, was instantly filled with a deeper fear, which was not only about the suppression of her power by Yura.

What evoked even more was the memory of the inhuman treatment she had suffered in that place, triggered by the Fools' uniform that Yura was wearing.

Even though she had long since escaped from that time, just recalling it briefly made her feel the pain of the scars that had remained on her body.

Even though she wasn't bothered by anything, this made her suddenly start trembling all over.

Yura, who was standing to the side, saw Cole's behavior. As for why she and Amber were here, that needed to be sorted out from the beginning.

After she used the power of the 'Fusion Warrior' and subdued Cole, she brought her back.

He then submitted the mission to the higher authorities as a special inspector acting as an intermediary between the Fools and the Knights of Favonius.

However, considering the special nature of Cole as the arsonist of the 'Blackfire Incident', the Knights and the Fools are currently discussing how to deal with Cole.

Therefore, after Cole's power was properly sealed and processed, it was temporarily placed in the Knights' dormitory, which is why Cole is here.

Because of the danger posed by Cole, no one was willing to deal with or settle him.

Naturally, this task fell to her.

However, she herself was not good at handling such matters, and Amber, her only friend in Mondstadt, resolutely volunteered to help her settle and take care of Cole after hearing about it.

This is why she and Amber appeared in this room after Cole woke up.

In a sense, her only friend could be considered an absolute do-gooder, willing to stand up and help others even if they were complete strangers.

Even someone like her is the same.

It's not specifically targeted at anyone, nor is it because anyone is special.

Instead, she was equally warm and gentle to everyone; that was the fiery passion of the girl named Amber.

After seeing the fear that Cole showed towards her, she understood the reason why Cole was so afraid and hostile towards her.

It's more accurate to say that it's normal for her to be wary and cautious of herself.

However, she was even more aware that, considering her own identity and special circumstances, she was not really the right person to speak to at this time.

She simply leaned against the wall, crossed her arms, and looked at Cole, who was curled up on the bed, and said calmly.

"Don't worry, no one here will hurt you, and no one will hold you accountable. I have already controlled the power within you. You can rest assured and recover here. No one will do anything to you. I can promise you that."

Kola, who had been wary of Yura and was curled up in the corner of the bed, heard what Yura said.

At that moment, she suddenly realized that the power within her body that had been constantly influencing and eroding her consciousness now seemed to have vanished into thin air.

After feeling as if a heavy burden had been lifted from my body, I felt a sense of relief.

While she felt a sense of relief, a new fear and unease also began to arise in her heart.

Even though she had to admit that even though she didn't like that power, it did indeed protect her safety; without that power, she would have been completely unable to protect herself.

This feeling of losing everything made her feel intensely uneasy again.

This caused her emotions, which had finally calmed down, to begin to show signs of instability again.

After seeing Yura's performance, Amber, who was standing nearby, also tried to smooth things over.

"Don't take it to heart. Even though Yura seems like this on the surface, she's actually a very kind and warm-hearted person, so you don't need to be so afraid of her."

"No need, Amber. It's normal for her to be wary and cautious of me. Rather than forcing her to accept it, it's better to just leave it as it is."

Just as Amber was trying to smooth things over for Yura, Yura shook her head and said...

Although Amber voluntarily took on the responsibility of caring for Cole, there were some things that were not to be made public for the time being for both the Knights of Fathom and the Fathom Fools.
