Rex, or rather, the Invincible Apparition, was appalled at the audacity of Althea asking him to have the Reaping Seed when all she did was meddle in something that doesn't involve her. She was sent here only to check, but demanded the most precious thing from this incident.
He stared at her as if she had grown a second head.
"This fucking—what a noble woman you are..."
"You owe it to me!"
"Aren't nobles supposed to be graceful? How exactly do I owe it to you?"
"Because you slapped me two times! Even my husband never got the privilege to slap me before!"
"I'm surprised," Rex cackled. "From how noisy and loud you are, I thought it would be normal for your husband to slap you. In fact, I'm surprised you even have a husband. Poor guy must have been forced to marry a big-mouthed witch."
Althea was silent.
