With the noble and the church official being tied up and put with the anti magic chain, they were brought to the prison by the soldier under the surveillance of Aurora and Albert, Clair on the other stay behind as to guard and help Alfin if any problems were to arise
Those in the captive were freed one by one and were given food and drink as its obvious they doesn't have anything nutritious given to them ever since they were captured
With the people one by one thanking Alfin and the other for their effort, Blanc and Lydia nervously look around. Emma knew what they are looking for and scan her eyes to help them, and when notice the person that Blanc and Lydia are looking for
"Blanc, Lydia, over there" [Emma]
""That's..."" [Blanc, Lydia]
"What are you hesitate for!" [Emma]
""But..."" [Blanc, Lydia]
"Come, I will go with you!" [Emma]
""..."" [Blanc, Lydia]
"Blanc, Lydia, don't hesitate. If you want, Emma, Rais and I can go with you" [Alfin]
""Princess Alfin!"" [Blanc, Lydia]
"I believe what princess Alfin and Emma want to tell is that just go, both of you make too much assumption, how sure are both of you they will hate you" [Rais]
"But because of us..." [Blanc]
"""JUST GO!!!""" [Alfin, Rais, Emma]
With the three of them encouragement, Blanc and Lydia brace themselves and go. Clair which have a confused face about what just happen ask Emma about it
"I see, well it's as Rais said just now, they make too much assumption. There's no way that they will hate both of them after what they have done" [Clair]
"True enough" [Alfin]
With each step, both Blanc and Lydia breath become heavier and heavier and their heart pump even stronger due to the anxiety. All that were playing in their mind is how to ask for forgiveness because of what happen. They approach a family of dwarf, with the wife having a scalded left arm and the child having a burn mark on the right side of his eye. The husband on the other hand can be seen with multiple bruises
""Excuse us"" [Blanc, Lydia]
"What is it young student?" [Father dwarf]
""WE ARE SORRY"" [Blanc, Lydia]
"""huh???""" [Dwarf family]
With the sudden apology from both of them, not only the dwarf family, even other become confused
"You see, because of my inexperienced, your family got burned!" [Blanc]

"Not only you Blanc, even I was responsible for it" [Lydia]
"No Lydia, you have done nothing wrong!" [Blanc]
"But!" [Lydia]
"Umm... can you explain properly" [Father Dwarf]
""Well..."" [Blanc, Lydia]
Both of them, with face of full of regret begin to explain about how they are the reason the guard thinks that those people in the captivity were planning to escape. About how Lydia shout (in the mind) cause Blanc to suddenly burst more earth mana into his earth sonar magic and how all of that cause the dwarf family to become the victim. As the dwarf family (and those around them) listen on about it, their eyes begin to change. The husband dwarf then speak
"So you guys are..." [Father dwarf]
"Yes, because of us, you got hurt the other day" [Blanc]
"Forgive us, we really are sorry because of how stupid we are, your family became the victim" [Lydia]
"Nonsense!" [Father dwarf]
""Ehh?"" [Blanc, Lydia]
"If those are the price to be paid for our freedom, then it's a small price, plus let me said this on behalf of my family, no on everyone around here, thank you for saving us" [Father Dwarf]
"But..." [Lydia]
"Young student, you guys are still learning so its only natural that you guys make a mistake. But I can assure you one thing, our family have nothing but gratitude to you!" [Father dwarf]
"But your wife arm and your child arm!" [Blanc]
"We can always see a doctor since we are currently free, who knew what will happen if you guys haven't done anything at all" [Father Dwarf]
""But still..."" [Blanc, Lydia]
"You guys think too much, all of us here have nothing but gratitude towards both of you" [Father dwarf]
"Yes that's right!" [Mother dwarf]
"Thank you so much" [Dwarf son]
"Because of you, we are free!" [other]
"Thank you!" [other]
"You guys are without a doubt the reason all of us are free" [other]
"You are right!" [Alfin]
"""Princess Alfin!!!""" [Other]
"Blanc and Lydia are the main reason to your freedom, the information that they collected over the past few days were vital for us, without them, we won't be here today" [Alfin]
"I agree" [Clair]
""Lady Clair"" [Blanc, Lydia]
"See young student, you guys have done very well, don't worry about us, we can see a healer or dictor to treat my wife and my son" [father dwarf]
"I will pay up for it" [Alfin]
"Are you sure Princess Alfin?" [Father dwarf]
"Definitely, I am their teacher and by acting on behalf of their teacher, I believe their guilty feeling will slowly reduce" [Alfin]
"If its truly help to relieve the young student, then we will accept it. My family and I would be forever grateful for it!" [father dwarf]
With that, the other begin to said thank you to Blanc and Lydia. One by one, the people that were saved show their gratitude towards them, until they are overwhelmed by it
"We worried for nothing huh..." [Blanc]
"I feel as stupid as Blanc!" [Lydia]
"What do you said" [Blanc]
"Sorry, I forgot that none can rival you in that aspect" [Lydia]
"Why you tomboy!" [Blanc]
"What's that!" [Lydia]
With that, they regain back their confidence and sworn to to better next time
