"That's not it," Seraphine said. "That's called emotional intimacy, Greg."
"And that's the base of something more."
"But I don't know if she feels that way about me," Greg said as he looked up. "And even if she did, what should I do about it?"
"She likes to go on adventures. She travels all the time and puts her life on the line in dungeons. I work as a blacksmith, but I won't make weapons. How would that even work?"
Greg couldn't quite figure out why Lylia and Seraphine were looking at each other. And of course it was too late for him to back down now because he just said something that's supposed to be kept as a secret.
Both Lylia and Seraphine giggled, but it had some deeper meaning inside it that they felt a little jealous knowing Marina beat them both so easily like that to grab Greg's heart like that. However, Marina was also their closest friend, so they had to respect her feelings, especially after hearing Greg express them himself.
