Kapitel 251: I'm shaking it off with Tenebrous Slade?

Naked Diplomacy Arc I

(POV: Lumiere)

As I gazed at them, a perplexed look crossed my face. 

"So let me get this straight," I said firmly, my eyes narrowing. "You came all the way here just to see a Curse King?"

I know they're "extinct" and all, but still. 

Dendrossa nodded in response. 

"Yes, but it's not as simple as it sounds," she replied. 

"Go on," I requested. 

She paused, deep in thought, and then rubbed her chin contemplatively, her eyes gazing upwards at the twinkling night sky. 

Suddenly, she submerged herself back into the soothing hot springs water, releasing a heavy sigh that caused bubbles to dance to the surface. 

With a burst of laughter, she admitted, "Humu, I apologize, I seem to have forgotten what I wanted to say."

My left eye twitched in annoyance. "Typical," I muttered under my breath.

Interrupting the silent tension, Abaddon spoke.
