"Grandma, I'm going."
"Take care."
"Manma!"
"Take care as well, Eiko," Vera said as she lightly patted the baby Slime, who was on top of Lux's head, while looking at the latter with tender eyes.
"Iris, I'm going," Lux said to the blue-haired beauty who couldn't look at him straight in the eye.
"Un. Be careful, Big Brother," Iris said as she raised her head to look at Lux. Her face was beet-red, which made the Half-Elf wonder if she were having a fever.
"Are you okay?"
"Yes. I'm just sad because Big Brother is going away."
Lux thought that Iris was feeling lonely so she moved towards her and gave her a hug, which made the young beauty's face turn a shade redder.
"Ma!" Eiko said as she slid down from Lux's head and kissed her Mama's forehead to say goodbye.
"Be safe, Eiko," Iris replied as she kissed Eiko back. "Make sure your papa doesn't cheat on me."
"Ma?"
The red-headed teenager lightly pinched Iris' cheeks before taking a few steps back.
