Chương 95: What Really Matters...

"Huh? Hands?" she repeated, looking down at our hands clasped together. Her eyes widened in realization, and a deep blush spread across her cheeks.

"Oh! I'm so sorry!" she exclaimed, quickly letting go of my hands and pulling back, clearly embarrassed.

Girl, why did you do it if you were gonna act this way?

"Pah..." The Fire Salamander, Ignis, let out a small puff of smoke, looking somewhat relieved. But it didn't forget to cast me a warning glance.

Hey, it was your master who did all this, why are you looking at me like that? And, do you think I'm afraid of you? 

"Hehe," While we were doing a staring contest, it was broken by a cute giggle from Irithel.

I turned my attention back to her, surprised to see the amused expression on her face. "You two seem to get along well," she said, her embarrassment from earlier fading into a warm smile.

"...I doubt it," I muttered as our gazes clashed with the Salamander once again.
