"W-What are you talking about? Why are you making that face?! I have nothing to hide." Vera panicked, her speech becoming extremely rapid.
Auric smiled. "Don't worry. I have my brother's back on this! You said your family wants you to pursue me. If necessary, I can be your shield for the time being so that Eric can come and take you later."
"Really? Eh, I mean, what the hell are you talking about?! This is a matter of importance!" Vera glared at Auric.
Auric just chuckled, noticing how much Vera had fallen for Eric. He couldn't help but think, 'Damn, Eric moved so fast. No wonder you showed me that kind of illusion back then, Lindwurm. Tell me, what the hell did they do?'
Lindwurm laughed. "Sorry, but I need to respect their privacy. However, I have reasons for everything I do."
Auric's eyebrows twitched as Lindwurm just made him even more curious.
"Maybe if you get a girlfriend right now, I will tell you about it." Lindwurm grinned, teasing Auric back.
