WAY OF AN OMEGA

68 - To the Ruins

The morning came by fast like a blink of an eye. Surprisingly, the group had comfortably slept all throughout the night and woke up vitalized. Actually aside from being vitalized, the group had woke up with stupefaction and shocker.

"Y-yo-you! Who are you?" Valmont cried out with mouth gaped open.

Yulrir who had his hair down all throughout his waist and half-wet due to recent bath had tilted his head confusingly. He was also wearing his casual white inner robe and the usual overbearing cloak that hides his upper torso was completely absent. His fox mask that is not recognizable when cloaked is now also bare, completely complimenting his milky white skin. It was indeed a long time before he showed himself without the black cloak since the ancient realm opened, ah, well of course except for the times he is alone with Theo.

"..." Laur is similarly dumbstruck as he looked at Yulrir from head to toe.

Eavan pointed her finger out at Yulrir and gawked out. "Junior Brother Yulrir?"

Yulrir nodded softly and gave a reassuring smile to the group.

"T-th-this!!!" Fenella who was long incapable of speaking out finally let out a word.

"A GUY CAN'T BE THIS CUTE!!!" Valmont exclaimed not caring whether he just spouted out something out-of-his-character and held Yulrir's shoulder with his two hands.

"E-eh?!" Yulrir stepped back as he tried to get a hold of the situation right now.

"Say... Junior brother Yulrir, can you remove your mask as well?" Valmont said right off the bat.

"W--waiit!!! I take back my interest! I shall be pursuing you from now on instead of Brother Theo!" Fenella boldly stepped up and pushed Valmont's face away from Yulrir.

"G-guys... I- I don't think it is a good idea to say that when brother Theo is behind you..." Laur said nervously.

"!@#$%^&*(!" Fenella and Valmont screamed in silence.

"Why are you holding my wife so closely? Do you really want to meet with King Yama at the Yellow River so badly?" Theo said coldly with a bright smiling face.

Fenella and Valmont slowly look at their back only to find Theo who was carrying a torso of a dead cow-like beast on his back and a bloodied spear that he had lent from the weapon rack in the cave.

"B-brother! Your face is too handsome, it'll be bad if you get angr--- FUUUUUUUUUU! AAAAHHH"

That morning, the group had experienced the screams from hell.

"Wuwuwuwuwu... I can't believe brother Theo is this savage... mhhm mhmm!" Fenella cried while eating the roasted beast that Theo has brought.

"Stop acting.! I was the one who received the 'beating' the most!" Valmont who was sitting extra farther than the rest of the group had gawked out while eating his fill as well.

"Wuwuwu...Why do you keep such 'beauty' for yourself?" Fenella threw a pout at Theo.

"Pfftttt..." Eavan was trying so hard not to burst out laughing while looking at Fenella who had just had a 180-degree change of interest. She just can't believe that the Theonatic had been converted to Yulrirnatic just like that.

Theo instinctively tucked Yulrir in his arms who was now again wearing the gloomy over-sized black cloak. He then looked at Fenella with a frown and reprimanded the all-so-pushy petite woman once again.

"Let's head off after this breakfast." Laur said with a laugh and the group nodded at him. He is after all the leader-in-charge on their party.

It is safe to say that the atmosphere within the group is now pretty much a bit natural now.
