4

Duke worries when Alice stops teasing him, but is relieved to discover she just has a cold. After she recovers Alice asks Duke to spend the day in the snow and gives him a scarf she knitted. Returning inside Alice notices she dropped an earring that belonged to her mother. Duke sneaks outside to locate it but passes out in the cold. A nearby bat transforms into a girl and helps him recover. When she discovers he is a noble helping a maid she decides he has potential, uses magic to find the earring and introduces herself as Cuff, a witch. Duke invites her inside where Alice is happy he found her earring. Cuff explains she distrusts humans as witch hunters killed her parents and being half-human witches avoid her so she never learned about curses. She reveals her friend might know something but when Duke suggests she seems to really like her friend based on how much she trusts him, she jumps out a window and vanishes. Alice reminisces about one of the last times Duke was able to touch her, defending her from bullies, and he claimed snow makes her look like a snow-fairy. (Source: Wikipedia)
