Episode 93 – Anti-theft

Previously:

Elaru gives Kiel the ring she had o It had now been enchanted with the spell she had designed andand no one would be able to tell that his artifact was fake She also claims that Venric Rroda won’t take this artifact away fro “What do you…” Kiel tugged on his ring “… and instead concentrated fully on taking his ring off He tugged, pulled, and twisted for a whole minute before his hands stilled

He turned to Elaru and looked at her with his signature ice cold glare “El…a…ru…why… can’t… I… take… it… off…?” He pronounced every syllable clearly in a ot to mention! It also comes with anti-theft function” Elaru’s face blossomed into a most wonderful s directed her way

“…in other words… no one can take it off… including me?”

“Handy, isn’t it? Since even you can’t take it off, it ”

I should have known!! She always has a trick up her sleeve! The te, the air turned stifling, yet Elaru still continued sht hand to their eye level, showing his ring Through gritted teeth, he spat out “‘Handy’ isn’t the word I’d use”

Seeing Kiel’s twitching hand that seele her, Elaru unexpectedly started giggling “It’s about your hand, so I think ‘handy’ fits quite nicely”

The relatively calm atmosphere in the rooainst the table “I can’t believe you thought that ood idea!!”

“It’s not that it can’t be taken off… I rowled

Elaru scratched her head sheepishly

“Like having so my “divine artifact”?!” Kiel spat out If eyes could kill, Elaru would have been deader than dead

The red-headed troubleitated She rubbed her chin in thought “Easier said than done It is stuck to the base of your finger It’s practically ier off All atte instead of your finger”

Kiel stared at Elaru in a coobsh, to be honest, if so that badly, it would be easier to just cut off your entire hand at the wrist” She then proceeded to rate the hand, leaving only the ring behind”

With a violently twitching eyebrow, Kiel stared at Elaru in silence for several seconds before he finallya single finger, I lose an entire hand…”

Elaru atte pat on the back, but when she saw his expression, which looked like that of a rabid lupax that would bite her hand off if it caainst it “I hate to break it to you, Iceblock But if you run into soh to cut off your hand, the chances are that they are crazy enough to kill you too If you’re dead, it would er or a hand”

Control yourself Don’t strangle her You can do it Self-control! “Great That ood to know that they’ll have to pry the ring offfroave hiet ahead of ourselves There wouldn’t really be any prying involved here I ain repeated the chopping motion

Kiel, whoseElaru, didn’thimself a facepal the ring to rave? Fantastic!”

“Oh, co to an immature child “If you’re dead, you’re dead What does itto your grave? Dead people don’t have feelings”

“I bet that’s what graverobbers tell to theuess, ‘papa’ made you try that line of business as well?”

Elaru’s nonchalant behavior suddenly disappeared, replaced by an aard cough “Touché…”

Seeing Elaru’s visible eer suddenly dissipate into thin air He lifelessly fell back on his seat like a deflated balloon I can’t believe I just said that He looked up towards the ceiling and let out a sigh That was a lo…

He looked at Elaru from the corner of his eyes, but she didn’t seee of embarrassment quickly passed, and she was back to nor by her aura, Kiel could tell that she wasn’t mad at him at all

He closed his eyes tiredly and let out another sigh “What if one day Aetherneal bond gets broken? Aer for the rest of my life?” After all, his initial intention was to find a way to sever this bond

“If Aetherneal bond gets broken?” Elaru rubbed her chin in thought “You erated motion “Oh, how cruel! Your soul she left you How heartless, my only token of affection! You can’t even wear it to honor my memory? Why not just rip out lare at her “Continue down this line of thinking, and I just iant pest”

Elaru stuck out her tongue cutely

Kiel’s glare deepened “But now, even if I get rid of said “giant pest” I will never be able to forget it, for I can’t get rid of what it left behind” Kiel, once again, brought his right hand to their eye level, showing off the ring

“A sweet! You won’t be able to forget e eyes and exaggeratedly started fluttering her eyelashes, then she proceeded to sigh in a sickly say

“Arrrgh! Or I’ll just cut the finger offredhead

Elaru too, could take it no longer, and she finally burst out inwith you! Of course, there is a way to reot to include a way out in my spells? I’m not an amateur “

“ELARU WAYVIN!!!!! This is not funny!!!!”

The le that couldn’t be more pleasant to the ear echoed inside the rooht this instant!”

“Nope” Elaru shot it down instantly It’s better if you don’t kno to remove it That way no one will be able to force you to hand it over”
