Vie greeted his three guests with a flat face, and he told all his servants to leave from there. The servants said, although they were a little hesitant to leave the three ladies who looked weak like rabbits near an evil predator like their lady. But what they can do other than obey the orders given, they are only workers who expect wages and can continue to work to support their families. They are not heroes who can protect others even if they feel pity or heartlessness.
After the servants left, the four of them began to talk. Vie spoke his mind, alleging that one of them hesitated to return, so they still remained here and could not return. An annoyed Lilie kicked the table, saying back that it was possible for Vie to be like that. Indi also agreed to it, is not this what Vie wanted.
Miu broke up the three, there could be a fight that happened if they were noisy like this continue. It was even possible that the quarrel ended up as a war between their families.
After thinking for a moment, it was decided that they would continue to try and try until they succeeded. Vie laughs, grunts and says that he has tried until he is lazy to count how many times he tried.
Again, silence struck all four. If so, then what should they do to be able to return to their original world. That's the only way they know. Will they be able to return if they find another way, or maybe they will be thrown into another parallel world that they don't even know where. Various thoughts wandered, the four were busy looking for ways. Until the tea served even became colder because it had not been touched since.

"Do we have to fight?" lili said as she spoke, she was already dizzy with what to do to be able to return to their original lives, instead of being trapped in a novel world like this.
"I'm the one who's supposed to be the villain, can't stay quiet and have to make trouble, right?" timpal Vie also thought that maybe such a way was necessary.
"There's no guarantee it will work, but it's still worth a try?!" mieu said he agreed.
"Then if it doesn't work, what else do we do?" chirps Indi suddenly. "Can't it be that we keep having meetings like this just to talk about the same thing?" he continued to think about what more reason they should give if they hold a meeting like this in the future.
Vie nodded in understanding, he knew very well what and how people responded to him. So there is no way two different sides can get along and hold meetings periodically without any problems. Even if he can make trouble, but there is no way three other people want to meet again if given an invitation. At least it would look very strange in the eyes of the people as well as the nobles. "At least we have to find at least ten ways to get back!" said the girl. After trying the ten proposed ways and not succeeding, they will then think again about how they met without making the other party who saw felt something strange and astonished.
"Ten at the least? How many at most? Twenty? Fifty? Or do you need a hundred ways?" lili asked for certainty. The four of them, if they need ten ways, does not mean that they at least think of two or three ways per person.
"The more the better!" vie said in reply. "Even if I collect thousands I don't matter" he said again. "It's impossible that among the many ways we've been asked, none of them have managed to get us back!" the girl thought positively.
"Miss Margaritha, your voice is too high! That's very disrespectful, miss," Miu scolded with a smile.
"I'm sorry, I just can't believe it until I let it go" Lili said, apologizing half-heartedly, she had no regrets about raising her voice when she spoke to Vie.
"I'm just saying more is better, miss," Vie said. "I never mentioned the exact number, so give your idea as much as you can and I'll thank you for that" she stared back at Lili. The antagonist's eye gaze is different from the protagonist's, of course, if the good actor who looks sharp still looks ordinary and sweet. But if it's an evil actor who stares sharply, it feels like my fur is standing because it feels a threat just from the look of his eyes.
For a moment everything was silent, only an awkward silence ruled around them. Vie smiled slightly, waving his hand lightly. "Let's think slowly while eating snacks that have been prepared," he acted friendly.
The three guests Vie had followed what the host had said. They enjoyed a sweet snack while thinking hard, roughly what way could possibly bring them back.
After several hours of being missed, they had not even been able to reach the minimum limit of the idea Vie had said. Even Vie, who is the author of this novel, can only contribute two ideas. He even conveyed it hesitantly, too unconvinced that his idea could successfully bring them back.
"Why is this so hard?" lili doesn't like it. "The last time we got through it was so easy!" he said again while grunting. "We just need to ask for san hope before we fall asleep. Then, viola, when we wake up we've got there!" he snapped a finger.
"Maybe it's a rule we don't know about" Vie said. "There's always a price to pay to achieve something" he said. If last time they could easily go back and forth, maybe this time they had to find the key to get back to where they should be.
"Rules are there to be broken?!" tukas Lili pouted annoyed.
"Then what to break if we don't even know anything about this rule?!" timpal Miu followed along annoyed even if just a little. He was half dead thinking, but his friend was busy complaining.
"From complaining, it's better to spend the rest of your time thinking about your next idea!" indi said speak up. Oh, may Miu feel moved because her best friend can know what she is thinking right now. It is nice to have a very understanding friend even before we can say anything, he immediately knows and can guess what we want to say. They were finally busy thinking ria until the sun was right in the middle, the three say goodbye after being invited to lunch together. Of course they refused, there would be no point in showing their closeness to outsiders. In this story, they are hostile to each other. It's not that you're friends and can spend time eating together so easily.
