Kapitel 95: Chapter 95

Startled by the sudden noise, Maxi looked up. Fireworks shot from the festival tents, lighting up the whole sky. She watched the magnificent sight in a daze before she heard Riftan groan next to her.

"Goddammit, Agnes…"

It seemed that the colorful display was the work of Her Royal Highness.

Maxi pushed him away. "S-Something must have happened… We should go…"

"She's just trying to enliven the festival. The woman has a fondness for loud amusements."

As if his desire had not yet waned, Riftan let out a shaky breath and ran his hand over his flushed face.

"Damn it… Why the hell didn't Elliot stop her?"

"I-I think it would be best to go back…"

Another round of fireworks erupted into the sky. Riftan swore in frustration and knocked his head against the tree. With his burning body pinning her in place, Maxi did not know what to do. Reason returned once she heard the loud cheers coming from afar, and a wave of embarrassment washed over her.
