I embraced her as she ran into my arms.
"What happened?" I asked, stroking her beautiful ocean-like hair.
"Sylvie bit me," she cried.
"Hmm… did you try drowning her in her sleep again?"
Immediately as I asked, Selthis puffed out her cheeks and began pouting.
"Are you taking her side? I only did it because she was being selfish. She ate most of the meat we got on our last hunt! Even the ones I was saving. Besides, she hugged you all of last night. She deserves it!"
"Don't worry, I'll take you hunting later."
"Really?!" All her tears dried up in an instant, and it was replaced by a beautiful smile.
"Yes, and also keep your fights with Sylvie in the village. I'm already getting complaints. You should really try to get along with the others."
Her beautiful smile immediately morphed into a frown.
