Subaru:  “That’s walking one hell of a tightrope!” Subaru was aghast at learning far too late that he had crossed a more precarious bridge than he had even imagined.

Julius:  Julius turned a look of deep interest toward him and said, “But it is rare for the buds to make a mistake when tuning it. Perhaps you possess an unusually high affinity for spirits… Does anything along those lines come to mind?”

Subaru:  “Sorry, the only spirit I get along with is a mouse-colored cat.” On top of that, right then, he had no confidence that he could ever approach that cat in the same way as before.

Julius:  “If you have an opportunity, you should try to learn the basics of spiritualism from Lady Emilia. If she is resistant to teaching you, I would be willing to aid you myself.”

Subaru:  “I’m not sure what brought on this sudden outpouring of friendliness, but it doesn’t sound like an instant process, so I’ll pass for now.” He didn’t deny that the suggestion held its attractions, but Subaru reflexively declined the offer.

Julius:  His reaction made Julius pull back, seemingly disappointed, when Subaru simultaneously remembered something. Ferris had told him. Subaru was still subconsciously harboring enmity toward Julius—just as he had at that very moment.

Subaru:  “Can’t I do something about that?” The first time, Ram had interrupted, but was it not the time to properly clear up the ill feelings between them? With such thoughts in Subaru’s mind, his gaze caused Julius to incline his own head. Subaru narrowed his eyes at the handsome young man fluent with words, anguished in the attempt to somehow spit out serious words of his own.

Julius:  “—Mmm, understood. If possible, I would like to put Ia on you again. Please grant your consent.”

Subaru:  In the end, hesitation clogged up Subaru’s throat, and all he could manage was to keep his statement inoffensive. While Subaru’s thoughts were elsewhere, the red minor spirit called Ia circled above his head. It proceeded to land on the crown of Subaru’s head, asserting its existence with a faint emission of heat. "Hey, this isn’t gonna make me bald, is it? I’ll have you know I’m trying to go through life without becoming bald or chubby…”

Julius:  “She’s been nestled against you until now without you even noticing, yes? It is especially so for those with a high affinity for spirits. Your Gate will acclimate quickly, and you will cease to notice her.” In accordance with this lecture, Subaru immediately stopped feeling the heat on the crown of his head. The principles were unclear to him, but she had apparently slipped inside Subaru. That faint heat was the only thing he’d felt from it.
