Episode 15 – Good Night (1/2)
“What better way to train your ownthen to try to survive and eventually break out of prison which has an anti- artifact?”
Eeeh?! Kiel’s face paled, and he blurted out “Who would do that?! Isn’t that too extreme?!”
His words brought her out of her strange ely She pressed her lips into a thin line to keep her mouth shut
Oh for the love of fate… she couldn’t be talking about her own experiences… could she?
Kiel closed his eyes and rubbed his temples What kind of… I don’t even… what?
Elaru finally noticed that her speech didn’t have the desired effect, and she coughed to attract Kiel’s attention before waving it off and changing the subject “My point is, I a to papa”
Kiel’s eyes flashed with cold light “Do not change the subject!” He lowered his voice to be barely audible “I thought you said you aren’t a wanted criminal!”
She looked at hiht face “I am not” He expected her to continue, but she didn’t When she noticed the chilling aura that started spreading from him, she decided to elaborate
“Don’t be silly” She rolled her eyes with mirth “I wasn’t arrested and thrown into prison”
Kiel let out a breath that he didn’t knoas holding His lie sense wasn’t tingling Thank the Gods! He noticed his lips were dry and he took a sip of his honeymead
“Papa sled me in”
The honeymead that just entered Kiel’sliquid creating a colorful rainbow in the soft light of the tavern
It spilled all over his meat and even dripped down the sides of the table to the floor He quickly covered his nified noble But suppressing a coughing fit while choking wasn’t easy His lungs burned, his throat itched, his eyes teared froht face and not choke on his own spit
Yep Her father is definitely the one to bla
Kiel didn’t knoas worse, the pain he was feeling, his dignity going down the drain, or that his spit didn’t e to reach Elaru and pull her doith him
Elaru seeaze aiers creating a sound barrier around thenity in death, e, you’ll choke”
Kiel couldn’t hold it in any longer and coughed it all out He still did his utmost to cover it up Luckily, they had chosen a secluded spot of the tavern, where they wouldn’t attract , Kiel orried they would stand out like diaular stones and not have any peace and quiet
Since no one could hear hie
He wanted to ai at Elaru this time, but the vixen must have had an impeccable sixth sense because she quickly moved behind him (out of reach) and patted hi a baby about to burp
“There… there”
“Don’t… touch… hs
She let hiet over the experience
It would have been better if the expression on her face didn’t clearly state: “Let's have a ic fate”
Kiel moved his hands to rub his te holes into Elaru, he covered them with his hand He stood there frozen for a while
After another few er had passed, she spoke up “Are you alright,fit! Should I cast soht that on?”
“What do you think was the cause of that?! Breaking into prison is just as illegal as breaking out of it!” Kiel hissed from between his clenched teeth
“Not if you don’t get caught doing it” She smirked
“That’s not how the laorks!!” He barely ainst the table
She chewed on a piece of her ic to heat it up, but you shouldn’t be spoiled and do everything with ic”
I don’t need you to tell me that!!
“Oh wait, I guess it already got cold That honeymead you spewed over it cooled it down”
Kiel felt like banging his head against a wall, repeatedly The last amount of restraint he had evaporated, he didn’t even care about being in public anymore He couldn’t even re like in this moment
In a swiftof honeymead and spilled it over her plate of meat
Elaru gaped at hi” and “Who are you and what did you do to Kiel?” was splattered all over her face
Kiel couldn’t re sense of self-satisfaction than seeing Elaru’s stupefied expression He finally ed to usurp that calreider and wider, the previous anger and humiliation evaporated into thin air without a trace
After recovering fro voice “Why did you kill my meat?! And why did you use my honeymead to kill it?”
Kiel snorted, stifling a laugh “Why would I waste my own honeymead? You killed my meat, I killed yours Noe are even”
Elaru pouted, feeling wronged “So petty! You were the one that spewed your honeymead all over your meat!”
Kiel’s eyebroitched “You made me spew it out”
“I can’t be blamed for that If you accidentally ran into my fist, would you blame that on me too?”
Kiel raised his eyebrow “The only way I could accidentally run into your fist would be if I was alreadyand you formed the fist and put it in front ofme You’d definitely be the one to blame”
She refused to give up “What if it was an accidental injury? You’d make me suffer too?”
“I a a female”
As soon as he said that, he felt a sharp pain on his shi+n Son of a… !!! The little vulpy kicked him!
Alht back But she was ready for it and quickly dodged while whining “You said you’d pardon it”
“I said I would pardon it if it was accidental”
“How do you knoasn’t? You didn’t even give me a benefit of the doubt!”
“I am not bloody stupid!”
Elaru pouted and gave hiot her sweets stolen Her ears drooped down pitifully as she looked back at her plate “Such a waste of finehad to die for this”
Kiel rolled his eyes at her antics She didn’t feel bad when his ot ruined, and only when her own suffered did she startin honeyo”
“Spoken like a true alcoholic” She continued pouting and looking at hily
“Except honeye” Kiel’s er to her lips and shushed him “Shhh! Let’s have a moment a silence for our fallen comrade”
How childish!+ What brought this on? Where did the cunning de “It’s a piece ofwith the honeymead in your stomach anyway It makes absolutely no difference”
