AFTERWARD: THE GIRL AND THE WOLF
“Ohh, you’re so rough, Bete Loga! Dragging me along with no explanation! Mm, but I like that forceful side of you!”
“Shut up, you stupid kid!”
The sun had set, the full moon shone high in the sky, and the voices of an Amazon and a werewolf echoed through the streets of the Pleasure Quarter undergoing reconstruction in the southwest of the city. The girls of Loki Familia followed alongside them.
It was the fifth night after the Kingdom of Rakia attacked the Labyrinth City, and Loki Familia had chosen to retreat, but Bete decided to bring Lena Tully with him. This was because the issue of how to get into Knossos had not yet been resolved, and Lena was the key to unlocking it all. Right now, the group was heading to Belit Babili, where Lena claimed to have spotted something that would help.
However, Tiona and Tione were making heckling comments from the back of the group.
“Keep it down, Bete, or Guild security is going to figure out we’re here!”
“Is it just me, or is he enjoying it?”
“Why don’t you two just get married already? She’s a little weird, but she’s the best you’re going to get!”
“Yeah, you’ll be lucky if you ever find anyone weird enough to fall in love with you after her and Leene!”
“Thank you, sisters! Rest assured that I shall marry Bete Loga one day!”
“Shut up, you lousy Amazons, before I kick your heads off!”
Unable to take any more of this, Bete ran ahead, leaving the whole group behind except Lena, who managed to catch up to him. Once the two were alone, the Amazon’s playful nature went away. She leaned against Bete and whispered with a faint smile on her lips.
“Hey, Bete Loga.”
“What?”
“Thank you for the flowers.”
Bete’s ears twitched.
“I’m so happy you remembered.”
“Shut up.”
“When I saw them there, I wanted to cry.”
“Shut up.”
“Thank you. I love you.”
“…Shut up.”
