Larus, on the other hand, was controlling himself very carefully. His legs were pressed completely together, his head was lowered, and his face was completely red as he said in a soft voice with a nasal tone, "No... I'm hungry. Can we eat first?"
Hearing that, Heena looked at him with slight concern and said, "Oh really? You should have said so at the start. But how about we ride quickly and then go eat something? It's just a short ride—"
