Chapter 57 (2/2)

“I seeee. I have indeed listened. Well then, time to head to Kain-saGUEH-”

As Fii was about to run off, her collar was grabbed from behind.

“I really didn’t have any hopes for you, but it’s kind of annoying to hear such an unwilling reply,” he slowly said as he held on tight to stop her from escaping.

Fii turned around and replied,

“But I really wouldn’t be of any help anywayy. Please let go of me! I need to go kill some time at Kain-san’s!”

“Didn’t I tell you? Talking to a kid like you was pointless.”

Even though Fii was the one who told Crow to talk about it, she gave such a reluctant reply. So Crow stood up, holding her like a cat. She skilfully twisted this way and that, but with her neck held, getting loose was apparently quite difficult.

Perhaps she eventually gave up because she just went limp.

“Can’t you just ask some girl to go with youu?”

“No way. n.o.body would feel happy about going as a test partner,” he replied.

Fii blinked in surprise.

“To think you were so considerate about that.”

“Exactly what kind of guy do you take me for…”

Hitting Fii on the head again, Crow sighed.

“Well, I guess there’s just winging it on the day, huh. I wanted to at least check the menu to see if it was appropriate.”

Suddenly, Conrad’s voice appeared out of nowhere by Crow’s side.

“My, then don’t I have a plan for you.”

As usual… in women’s clothing. Seeing him, Crow began to sweat uncomfortably.

“Don’t tell me you want me to go with you.”

In response, Conrad placed a finger at his lips and went “Hmmm,” before giving a bewitching smile.

“I wouldn’t mind that either, but I’ve actually got another candidate for you. It’s good practice for them as well.”

With that, Conrad looked right at Fii. As for Fii, she simply stared blankly at him in confusion.
