"Irus came to see me so early in the morning. Maybe something happened?"
"Hey~, you're as sharp as ever. Don't be so defensive. I'm not teasing you this time~."
“… …”
(stare--!)
"Gu, such a look of distrust."
Irus covered her chest and fell backwards looking "hurt".
"I'm so hurt, my heart is about to break!"
"... Irus, the play is almost over," Hulim said helplessly, "Let's get down to business."
"Eh, so boring~."
Irus pursed her lips in boredom.
Then her casual expression subsided.
The whole person became serious.
"Hulim, there is indeed something very important now, and it concerns you."
"I?"
Hulimton was puzzled.
"Yes, originally, I should have come to you after the World Tree War, but considering your recent S-rank status, doing so might be a burden on you, so I postponed my observation for a while."
"Now it seems that you should be able to bear it."
"?"
What is this talking about.
... ...
A long and winding underground passage.
Tick, tick, tick...
The footsteps of two people kept echoing in it.
Hulim looked at the surrounding walls and couldn't help but say:
"I didn't expect there would be such a place under the World Tree."
"Well, after all, that thing is so dangerous and important."
Hearing this, Hulim looked at Irus who was leading the way and asked:
"So, what exactly is it? It's about time you told me, right?"
"Don't worry, you'll know when you get there."
That's the answer again.
Hulim stared at the figure in front of her with resentment.
Why are you being so mysterious? Why don’t you just tell me directly? You also like to play tricks on people. You are really a guy who always makes people angry and helpless.
Thinking of this, she narrowed her eyes slightly and spoke in a deliberate tone:
"Irus——"
"What's wrong~?"
"Honestly, sometimes you can be really annoying. You're just a pain in the ass."
"puff--!"
Irus staggered and almost fell down the stone stairs.
She turned her head, her cheeks puffed up, and a look of grievance swirled in her eyes.
"That's too much! If you say something like that again, I'll cry in front of you. I'll really cry in front of you!"
“… …”
This person is such a hassle.
"Woo woo."
"Ah, sorry, I was just kidding!"
Hulim hurriedly apologized.
“… …”
"So, it's just a joke. Can you please not actually cry? It's so embarrassing!"
"...Is this really just a joke?"
“Really, really.”
"Don't you think I'm troublesome and annoying?"
"Well... ..."
"Ah, I'm really a nuisance—"
"No, no, I don't think so! I-Ilus is the best."
Hulim's smile was very stiff.
After all, I said something against my will...
"Really?"
"real."
"Hey~! Then I forgive you~!"
After saying that, Irus continued walking down humming a song.
Hulim was stunned by the light-speed change of his expression.
After realizing that he was being teased again, he became extremely angry.
This guy——!!!
She has it in her hands, absolutely in her hands!
