Thalia von Ravenfall entered the room and asked something really unexpected.
"Young lord, are you perhaps Naoki?"
Aether's eyes went wide in surprise. Naoki was Aether's name back on Planet Earth.
How does she know that name?
He never used that name on Eloria (the name of this world). Confused by the sudden mention of his earthly name, he narrowed his eyes and spoke in a serious tone,
"Where have you heard that name?"
Rather than guessing this and that, it was better to just ask directly.
Upon hearing his question, Thalia felt awkward and started rubbing her palm while looking down.
"Uhm..... I have been looking for him." Thalia replied in a low voice.
"Why?"
"Because....uh...You remember when we first met at the inn? The reason I took interest in you and sent my escort captain to you was because you looked familiar to this Naoki I know."
"Oh... So what is your connection to this Naoki?" Aether asked.
