My Childhood Friends Are Trying To Kill Me

The table was filled with wonderful dishes. 

Kalix wolfed down everything while Romeo slowly savored the food.

The dishes were so great that it felt like it brought back the lost appetite. 

Lelia glanced at the two as she ate.

Come to think of it, she had to do this quest as well..

The contents of the quest were both the same.

Increase the likeability [+10] by more.

She wanted to check the current favorability, but it would be a waste to use the ticket.

After all, the quest completion will appear automatically when the favorability level rises by 10.

She was thinking of saving the favorability check ticket just in case.

“Did something happen?” At the end of the meal, Kalix suddenly asked. 

She didn’t know why, but as soon as she heard the question, Lelia’s nose became red.

What had happened in the day played in her mind. A sudden feeling of relief filled her.

“…….”

“What? Why are your eyes red?”Are you crying?” Kalix furrowed his brows.

Romeo’s eyes were turned to Lelia at those words.

“I think someone bullied her at the tea party?” Romeo grinned and asked in a concerned tone.

Thump!

As soon as the words were over, Kalix punched the table.

“Who bullied Leo’s sister?”

She felt even more emotional about the way he spoke.

Although Lelia didn’t act, she really had a hard day today. Seeing Julianna being bright, Cedric and Damian hostile to her…

Pretending to be a man and hiding her true identity. 

And accepting Ruth’s request for the sake of the Holy relic.

“I should have gone with you. Tell me, who bullied you? I will pull out all his hair.”

“Is that alright? I’ll have to get it for you.”

Lelia burst into laughter after Romeo and Kalix.

However, their faces were serious.

Lelia felt a warm feeling spreading in her heart. 

It was reassuring.

“It was just hard. It was weird pretending to be a man.”

At Lelia’s words, Romeo chuckled, “Okay,” and Kalix’s eyebrows twitched.

So, she passed it off as having a tough time doing that.

“Actually… I need Ruth’s help, so I’m listening to his request.”

“Ruth? Is there anything he can help you with?”

“Leo’s request that you mentioned before?”

“Yes,”

“What the hell are you going to do to give him help?” Kalix asked with a straight look.

“I can’t tell you much about it now. I’ll tell you everything later.”

When Lelia said so, Kalix and Romeo heard no more.

“I just want you to tell me anything you need,” they added.

“Now that we’ve talked about it, if I go to the tea party again, let’s go together…” At Lelia’s words, the two quickly got up from their seats and went to the sofa.

It was a little silly, but Lelia laughed.

Everything that seemed hard today was flying away.

‘Yes, let’s do our best.’

With this motivation, Lelia resolved to obtain Ruth’s Holy Relic as soon as possible, and went to sleep.

***

After dinner.

Lelia spent more time drinking tea with the two of them at Romeo’s suggestion.

Then, Lelia told them a little about Ruth’s request. She had no choice but to help Ruth and Julianna to make a good connection. And that she had to be a playboy for that.

“Flirt? A flirt?”

The two of them exchanged glances as if it was funny. They grabbed their stomachs and laughed.

“Oh, that’s really funny!”

Kalix burst into laughter as he lay down on the sofa, swinging his feet.

‘Yes, as long as you guys like it…’

Lelia had a despondent and expressionless look while staring at them.

Then, suddenly, the quest mark that was floating on Kalix’s head glistened.

Ring!

A rectangular window popped up with the sound.
