Before the Final Trial

Scarlet

Looks like this is it.

Scarlet

For a Dragon like me, passing the trial will be a piece of cake! Khah-ha!

Scarlet

Before that...

Scarlet

Captain, I have something to show you.

Huh?

Scarlet showed me a Bella petal in a box.

Unlike last time, luxurious embroidery adorned it.

Scarlet

After I saved Sophia, I gained confidence and decided to try.

Scarlet

I felt like I could handle it this time!

Scarlet

And the results were as expected. This time, even if I pierced it with a needle, it didn't break.

Scarlet

It's still dangerous if I lose focus, even just a little. But if I take my time, it's fine!

Scarlet

So I've been making a charm.

Scarlet

A charm embroidered with the crest of the Bellarmini clan.

Scarlet

When it's finished, I'll gift it to you, Captain.

Scarlet

Aren't you excited? Hahaha!

...Are you sure it's okay to give me something so precious?

Scarlet

It's fine.

Scarlet

One petal isn't enough to make a whole garment anyway!

Scarlet

Ultimately, it's my responsibility to find a whole Bella flower.

Scarlet

And more importantly... Ahem!

Scarlet cleared her throat and spoke.

Scarlet

Chance is but a mask of truth, inevitability its unveiled face.

Scarlet

It's a well-known proverb among Dragons.

Scarlet

Captain, do you know when I left the Valley of Dragons with Tailion, determined to become a Grand Couturier?

Scarlet

That was probably before you were even born.

Scarlet

Even so, until now, I didn't even have a clue which direction to go.

Scarlet

But this past year, just this one year of our Journey together, I've found the way to go.

Scarlet

This is absolutely no coincidence!

Scarlet

It's inevitable. You being by my side made it so.

Scarlet

And... there's another Dragon proverb... Inevitability begets further inevitability!

Scarlet

Somehow, I have a feeling that being with you will lead to another inevitability that will guide me on the path to becoming a Grand Couturier.

Scarlet

That's why...!

Scarlet

You deserve this.

...

Scarlet

...Is this how I say it? Ahahah! Putting on a serious act like this after so long feels... strange!

Scarlet

I'll give it to you as soon as it's done, so look forward to it!

Scarlet

If I win the trial, how about pancakes for dinner tonight? You're making them, of course!

Yeah.

Scarlet

Alright, Good!

Scarlet

Now then! Let's get started!
