"Ah, thank... you..."

Her voice was so faint it was nearly drowned out by the sound of the galloping horse and carriage as she, caught in the red net, murmured.

However, her small voice, her tearful face, her moist eyes... all of it reached Coai clearly.
Confirming her safety, Coai felt a sense of relief, as if all the tension and strength had drained from her.

The horse pulling the cart continued to run as if nothing had happened.
It showed no signs of slowing its pace, running faster and faster.

Coai commanded the blood rope, pulling the girl's body closer to her.

"I don't... really get it... but, wow, you're amazing... Thank you."
Snow gazed at Coai with wavering eyes, her words coming out in broken fragments. She probably hadn't calmed down yet. It was understandable.

"It might shake again, don't let your guard down."
Coai said this to her and was about to have her sit beside her again... but she felt that wouldn't do.

She might be thrown off again. Next time, Coai might not be able to save her.
That wouldn't do.
But... what should she do? If possible, she wanted to protect her from the shaking itself.

...And then, Coai had an idea.

In that case... just like that time?
