[64] Tiona, Who Doesn’t Know How to Speak!

[64] Tiona, Who Doesn’t Know How to Speak!

As night fell, the Loki Familia's dinning hall was filled with members who had worked hard throughout the day and had returned.

The entire dinning hall was now crowded with people—some in small groups and others alone. However, this atmosphere was indeed what many familia members had longed for.

At one table sat Tiona, Tione, Lefiya, and Akii.

They were all core members of the familia, including Aki, who was a logistical member. Both she and Raul served as Gareth's assistants.

"These days, Lady Ais is always with that man. It's really infuriating."

Lefiya tightly gripped the fork in her hand, her face full of envy and jealousy.

How much she wished to be close to Ais like that. Unfortunately, before she could act, she was beaten to the punch.

Aki, who was eating on the side, silently agreed. Since Ais suggested teaming up with August last time, she hadn't gone to the dungeon with him.

At this table, two people were dissatisfied due to another couple.

"Speaking of Ais, Lefiya, there's something I don't know if I should tell you."

"What's the matter, Miss Tiona?"

"It's just that, Ais and August, their relationship has become quite close. If you really want to pursue Ais, it's best not to harbor too much hostility toward August."

Tiona said tactfully, as she couldn't directly say, "The person you admire is already sleeping with him."

"This is impossible! That bastard and I have irreconcilable grievances. I would rather die than be with him!"

Her attitude was extremely firm, and because of this, Tiona began to sweat profusely.

On the other side of the table, Lefiya, who was just starting, didn't notice Tiona's odd behavior. However, as Tiona's older sister, Tione, noticed it keenly. It seemed like Tiona was hiding something.

"Hey, are you hiding something from us?"

"No no, how could I."

"What's wrong, you seem suspicious."

Under the intense gaze of her younger sister, Tiona's cold sweat flowed profusely.

And it was this behavior that made Aki and Lefiya also look at Tiona.

This immediately made Tiona panic. She wasn't a person who could keep secrets well, and being stared at like this, how could she endure it?

"Tell us what's going on."

"Really, there's nothing."

"Huh? Nothing~?"

"Alright, now that everyone's gone, you can say it."

Watching this scene in front of her, Tione nodded and sat down, no longer angry.

"Ah~ Ah~, that was truly a decisive measure."

"Don't waste words, say it quickly."

"Well, it's actually not a big deal. It's just that the relationship between August and Ais has become very close."

"Are you saying they're together?"

Tione said slightly surprised, getting together so quickly seemed unbelievable.

And beside her, when Lefiya heard this, tears welled up in her eyes.

"No, no, no~."

"That's great, Lady Ais hasn't been touched by that man."

Lefiya heaved a sigh of relief, her face full of post-crisis joy.

Seeing Lefiya's reaction, Tiona really didn't know whether she should tell her the truth.

"So, what do you want to say, Tiona?"

"They're not just together, this morning, Ais was supported by August when she came to the dinning hall."

"Supported to the dinning hall? How...?"

Halfway through, Tione suddenly froze, then widened her eyes in disbelief.

"Hey, you're not saying they...?"

"It's just as you think."

"That's too fast."

Tione was extremely shocked, with a hint of envy. She had been lusting after Captain Finn for years, but had never succeeded. Now, there was a new couple, and in just a few days, they had reached this level. Naturally, she couldn't help but feel envious.

"Miss Tiona, Miss Tione, what are you talking about?"

The pure white elf girl was completely confused.

Tione didn't know how to tell her. If she knew about this, the impact would undoubtedly be significant.

On the other hand, Aki, the catgirl, lowered her head, her eyes flashing with disbelief. This progress was indeed too astonishing and surreal.
