Her Bargain

A vein bulged in Izanami's head as she watched the scene in front of her.

This pair had been laughing together… for five whole minutes!

Nothing in the world was that funny!

By now, neither Abaddon nor Lailah had any air left in their lungs and simply made concerning wheezing noises as they slapped the wood floor heartily.

Finally, the couple ceased their laughter gradually as they wiped each other of their running tears.

With their sides still aching, they sat up on the ground and tried to regain a semblance of dignity.

"S-Sorry, ancestor. My husband and I just found your words to be quite amusing." Lailah giggled. 

"…Why?" Izanami questioned. 

Abaddon and Lailah glanced at each other before intertwining their hands together in a loving gesture. 

"We mean no disrespect, ancestor, but the questions you asked just seemed so pedestrian that we couldn't help but laugh at them."
