Summary[]

In her memories, Ais recalled that she had a burning black flame inside of her that sought strength. She recalled how Finn, Riveria, and Gareth helped her. However, her meeting with Revis rekindled that flame. Riveria helped in putting out the flame, though the existence of Revis prevented it from completely dying out.

Ais then recalled that Riveria instructed her to give Bell a lap pillow. She was slightly embarrassed, but it was a peaceful, however in reality she was scared. She was scared that Bell might view her the same as the monsters with her desire to continually grow stronger. As she gave him a lap pillow, she noticed the damage to his armor, analyzing from what and how he received the damage. Ais even noticed that he took care of his armor daily, something she used to do. Being with Bell made her feel a white feeling that helped extinguish the black flame.

At the Loki Familia home, Lefiya reported to Riveria that Ais had returned. She expected her to be in good spirits, but to her surprise she was in a bad mood, enough that Tiona was unable to try to talk to her. Ais informed Riveria that the boy ran away again. To everyone's surprise, Riveria burst out laughing which annoyed Ais. She pushed her, then lightly punching her over and over. However, her actions did improve Ais' mood.

The next night, Riveria brought Eina to the Loki Familia home. She was still depressed about being run away from and blamed it all on the lap pillow. Loki suggested updating her status after the meeting was over, expressing her desire to touch Ais all over. She immediately got rid of any of those thoughts when Ais threatened to cut off her fingers. Even during the update Ais thought about Bell and wondered if she really was scary. Loki announced Ais' level up and explained everything including her new ability, Spirit Healing. Loki sincerely congratulated her although she was concerned over the possibility of Ais being interested in a man, however Ais simply ignored her.

The next morning, Ais met Eina again. Eina asked Ais to save Bell due to possible trouble with his supporter. She accepted her request and was in high spirits upon hearing that Bell was grateful. She asked several parties of his whereabouts, learning that he was on the 10th floor. Ais was shocked that Bell was already on a floor that she took half a year to reach. As Ais reached the 10th floor, she noticed Bell surrounded by several Orcs and rushed to help him.
