Cedric suddenly felt a very bitter taste on his tongue. He scrunched his face and smacked his lips multiple times.
As he did, he wondered just what exactly was making him feel this way. After a few seconds, he finally realized that the source of the problem was that stupid-ass name that Aika had given to the Oni.
So he turned to her and muttered in pure disbelief, "Redd? …Redd?! Seriously?!"
Aika turned to him looking incredibly proud of herself. She nodded, and with her lips pressed thinly in a smile, she raised both hands and gave him two thumbs up.
Cedric's brow twitched.
When she saw his expression, she frowned slightly. "What? What do you think? Doesn't it sound great?"
"Wow. It sounds really great." Cedric deadpanned. Aika's smile returned, but just as she was about to puff her chest in triumph, Cedric leaned closer and added seriously, "Do you really believe that?!"
