Chapter 58 - Are you serious? Ryu?
Noah despised this behavior...
Meanwhile, after confirming that Ryu was safe, the members of the Astraea Familia began to criticize her.
"You idiot Ryu! Were you just asking for it?"
"A useless elf is a useless elf! Is she out of her mind?"
"If this continues! I... I'll ignore Ryu for three months... um, three days!"
Faced with a storm of scolding and concern, Ryu stood quietly like a tree, not reacting violently as usual, but just staring blankly ahead. This quickly caught the attention of the Astraea Familia members, and the various voices gradually fell silent.
Kaguya, Alise, and Lyra were more perceptive and instinctively followed Ryu's gaze to see the boy who was talking with Riveria.
"Is that person a member of the Loki Familia?"
"That person wasn't in the Loki Familia before, right? Hmm, I don't think they're from Orario either. Could they be a rookie?"
"Noin, how can you be so sure?"
"Wow, such a handsome guy! I'll never forget him once I've seen him!"
"You infatuated Noin! Are you kidding? That guy just single handedly defeated Goliath!"
"They probably just transferred from another Familia, why are you so excited?"
Amidst the discussions, only Kaguya and her two companions displayed unusual glances. The Kimono-clad beauty first approached Ryu, revealing a sly smile usually reserved for the pink haired Pallum.
"Oh, you useless elf, did you fall in love at first sight because a hero rescued you?"
Although Lyra and Alise were somewhat dissatisfied with Kaguya's actions, teasing the useless elf like this would likely cause another dispute. In particular, it involved topics extremely stimulating for Ryu, and it probably wouldn't end without a big argument.
However, after realizing the situation was beyond repair, both of them revealed sparkling, gossipy eyes. Since an argument is inevitable, why not have some fun?
However, what happened next disappointed them.
Ryu grasped the cloak at her chest and wiped it across her slightly flushed cheeks, her eyes glancing at Kaguya calmly, though they were moist. "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just a little dizzy from the shock of the explosion."
As a result, Kaguya and the other two's expressions went blank. The Kimono-clad girl stared wide eyed, unwilling to give up, scrutinizing the blonde elf from head to toe, trying to find a flaw.
"Are you serious? You're not lying?"
Although she asked, Kaguya actually believed most of it. As Ryu's most frequent bickering rival, she considered herself the one who understood this useless elf the most. If the conversation really turned to the topic of the opposite sex, given Ryu's usual nature, she wouldn't be as calm as she was now. The expected reaction would be to shout loudly with a flushed face, fall to the ground, and roll around.
Maybe just seeing the other person would make her dizzy.
"Idiot!" Although the sound coming through the cloak was somewhat distorted, it clearly conveyed the elf's disdain.
