Episode One Thousand Twenty-first: Asio and Melba

But they just made their faces tense and never tried to open their mouths.

"Hey, what are you gonna do? You're gonna do it? You're not gonna do it? Which one?"

Gaius said as he approached the Asios even more slowly.

But the Asios only made his face even stronger, so Gaius shrugged his shoulders in a sigh and quietly shrunk further toward them.

Azio frowned and looked at Melba sideways as he pulled his cheeks.

Then Melba, too, lurked the shadows in her usual calm appearance, and put a great deal of sweat on her forehead.

"I don't care either way, do I? I haven't had a battle with magic lately, so I can do it for a while, and I don't care if you follow me like this... apparently you're not willing to do it that way, are you?

Gaius said in front of the Asios, just a meter or so away.

Then Asio finally opened his heavy mouth.

"... ok. I surrender. Not very much, but no enemies... I will obey you very much..."

Then Gaius smiled with a grin.

"Yes. That's good. But what about your neighbor? Do I look dissatisfied?

Gaius said so and looked at Melba's face tilting his neck and peeking in.

Then Melba swallowed a large spit and nodded as she had no choice but to exhale a deep sigh.

"... ok. I will obey you, too. Fighting without winning is not a winning battle..."

Hearing Melba's answer, Gaius finally grinned in full.

"Yes. Then why don't you let me confess to you as an adult?

Gaius asked lightly.

Then Asio opened his mouth slowly, feeling like he didn't accept it.

"... as Mr. Shester said earlier. I've known Brother Melba for a long time now..."

Then Elba, who had watched the change for once until then, suddenly shouted and said annoyingly.

"It's Brother Melba! Oh, my God, that! I knew you guys were working together, right? So, what were you gonna do with us? Say it!?

Then Gaius turned around lightly hiking his cheek.

"E ~ L ~ BA ~ Hmm... I told you to keep your mouth shut ~? I already forgot ~?"

Gaius said against Elba in a slightly hung up manner.

Then this time Elba slightly hiked his cheek.

"... Oh, you did. It just happened... I didn't just say it by accident. So it's okay now. Because I don't speak anymore. Go on, go ahead..."
