But the man seemed to genuinely give up on continuing the confrontation and directly asked the fairy girl he called "Penny":
"This… Magical Girl, what did she say to you beforehand?"
"Huh?"
Penny was momentarily stunned, then answered honestly, "She said we must not deal with any Magical Girls who are still alive, and then she was about to take action…"
"I see."
The man nodded, his gaze once again turned towards Cornflower.
This time, Cornflower noticed that the other party was scrutinizing her face.
— "Then stop for now."
The man said this.
This answer not only momentarily made Penny lose her composure, but also left Cornflower even more baffled.
"But, but Elf Chief, the current mission is Her Majesty's…"
"Precisely because it's Her Majesty's order, we must wait for further instructions from Her Majesty."
The man interrupted Penny's doubts: "The current situation is beyond our capacity to continue making judgments."
