"I know I said this every time, even to Alfin when I first serve her but house huh?" [Azumi]

"What do you mean teacher" [Lydia]

"You'll see what I meant" [Azumi]

The curious student not knowing what Azumi meant just follow Captain Aurora. They and the people that were save slowly going into the center of the town

The people of the town recognizing who Captain Aurora is were happy to meet him. They make a small talk with him, some children even said that they want to be like him and Aurora encourage them to do so

"What a popular guys you are" [Azumi]

"Look whose talking" [Aurora]
