Bab 182: Chapter 176. Spirit Crystal

"Did you see them?" Han Shin whispered.

Abe, who was sitting atop one of the tents squinted to look into the distance. "Yeah."

"What are they doing?"

Below, Julian made a disapproving scowl while scrubbing his shield. "Isn't this peeping?"

"Sush!"

"They're talking--ah, he put his hand on the Commander's neck...I think he's guiding," Abe reported religiously from above.

"Zein guiding through something other than hand?" Han Shin widened his eyes, before whispering sharply. "Scandalous."

"Huh? Commander is...oh--"

"What?" excited, curious heads shot up to give the archer a united eager look, only to have the man sliding down, almost stumbling as he took a seat beside Julian.

"Oh..." his fair cheeks were suddenly smeared with a flush. "I don't think it's right to peek anymore..."

"You don't think it's wrong from the start?" Julian rolled his eyes, before going back to his scrubbing.
