It is impossible to reason with an Amazon(corrected)

(Author: chapter shorter than usual and it's quite relaxing. I'm still working on these kinds of scenes, so I accept all kinds of suggestions.)

--- Pov Tiona ---

"Hmm, finally the meeting is over."

"Did you find it boring?"

"Enough, all I have to do is kill the monster in front of me."

"Haaa, if the world were as simple as your head, it would be a wonderful place."

"Hehehe thanks for the compliment."

"It wasn't a compliment." - Turning my head, I could see Mark shake his head.

The meeting had just ended and we were on our way back to our rooms when I saw Mark and decided to walk with him.

As I walked with him, I unconsciously moved my gaze to his figure. Black hair that moved slightly whenever he walked, gray eyes that initially looked cold, but once you got used to it, they were almost fascinating and had an appearance that could be considered handsome. Maybe Mark didn't realize it, but he had become popular with only his looks among the female members of the Familia.

Perhaps it was for that reason that my gaze always ended in his direction.

'What a strange person.'

Not much was known about Mark, except that he was an orphan, cared a lot about that stone, and was very intelligent according to Riveria, even if he was a mystery, he had never given the feeling of a bad person. He liked spending time alone and his activities were two, training and studying, I've never seen him do anything else.

'Seriously, is it even possible to live like this?' - I thought complicated.

"Hey Tiona, are you going to follow me again?" - Mark said looking at me strangely.

"Eh?" -Recovering from my thoughts, I realized I had arrived at the wing aimed at the male members of the Familia. - "A-Ah right, goodnight."

"...Night." -Said Mark simply, as he walked away.

"Haaa, seriously, what problems do I have?" -I thought as I headed to my room.

Since I saw his battle, I became more and more curious about him, but he always hid everything, even when he was dealing with others, he always seemed to wear a mask. He was always calm and when he laughed, he always seemed superficial, the only times he really showed his feelings, was at the tavern and when he fought that monster.

"Where were you Tiona?"

Looking up, I could see Tione waiting for me at the door of my room.

"Oh sorry, I was walking with Mark."

"Ehhh." -Said Tione with a strange smile. - "So you were with Mark again huh."

"Did I do something wrong?" - I asked confusedly.

"No, I'm just glad my little sister is growing up." -Said Tione, as she pretended to wipe a tear.

Even though she called me little sister, we were actually the same age, but if she liked it that way, I didn't mind.

"Are you okay Tione? You're acting weird." -I told her worried.

"Come on, I know you understand me, you like Mark. Since he defeated that monster, you always tend to look at him, and lately, you always spend time with him. "- Approaching me, she began to nudge me.

"Of course I like him. I like you, Aiz, Lefiya, Riveria- "

"Stop, I'm not talking about that like. Haaa, how can you be so stubborn, go inside, it's time for us sisters to have a serious conversation."

The moment she made up her mind, she took my arm and walked into my room. She sat me up on the bed while she remained standing in front of me.

"Tell me Tiona, do you often think about him?"

"Sometimes."

"Well, would you like to know more about him?"

"I would say yes."

"Would you like him to talk to you about his problems and help him overcome them?"

"I'd like to help him if possible."

At that point, Tione asked me several questions about Mark. He was a member of the Familia and we had to help him if he had any problems.

"Tell me, would it bother you if you saw him with a girl you don't know laughing and acting intimately around her, showing a side you didn't think existed." - She told me while looking into my eyes.

"..."

It seemed almost impossible to see Mark acting that way. I've always seen him be serious, but if such a situation ever happened...

"Maybe... maybe a little bit." -I said in a low voice.

"Ehehe then tell me this, what if you were that girl?" -She asked me sitting next to me.

'If I was that girl?'

I imagined Mark approaching me with a smile, holding my hand while we were walking, then once alone he would hold me in his arms, being able to feel our warmth. Once we embraced, our faces would get closer and closer, until when...

"Uuuuuu" -A strange sound came out of my mouth as I covered my face that was on fire.

"Now you know when I told you you liked him, don't you?" - She told me in my ear, being able only to nod at her words.

"...What should I do?" -I asked her, moving my hands away from my face.

"It's simple, you have to make it yours." - She said putting her hands on my shoulders.

"And how am I supposed to do it, he doesn't seem very interested in others. - I asked confusedly.

'Cough'

"First you have to show your positive sides, then you have to make it clear that you are interested in him, then..."

I listened carefully to all his information, but I had a question.

"Did all these strategies work with the captain?"

"...Well not yet, but determination is the last to fall." -She said confidently.

'I think it's better that I ask someone else for advice.' - That was my thought.

--- General Pov ---

'Noises' 'noises'

Hearing the noise of people talking, Mark woke up and began preparing for the expedition. He put on his armor and sword and put various potions on his belt, including those that reduced pain.

With more money aside, he decided to buy some of those potions and it seemed to have an effect. For 10 minutes, while he kept the 'limit break' activated, he would suffer less pain. The difference might not be much, but it was better than nothing.

"I think I'm ready. Guide, when we are down, let me know if we find a fragment and if it is possible to take it right away. "

[I will do my best.]

After agreeing with the Guide, he left his room and headed for the canteen, where the other members had begun to gather. Finding a free seat, he sat down and happily began to eat his breakfast, which consisted of rice, tender meat, eggs, and vegetables.

'The food of this world is delicious, is it because everything grows without pollution?' - He thought as he ate.

Since he came to this world, he had never had a problem with food, because it was delicious. According to Mark, the quality rivaled that of Earth's high-end restaurants. While enjoying his breakfast, he hoped no one would bother him, but he seemed not to be so lucky.

"Hey hey hey Mark, how are you?" - Tione asked him, as she sat on the chair next to him with a smile.

"...Well I'd say. You instead? You look strangely cheerful. " -Mark asked her strangely. He had seen her being cheerful, but today she seemed so much more cheerful.

"Nothing special, I just got some good news." - She told him, while still smiling at him.

"Ah... I understand, then I'm happy for you." -Mark told her, as he resumed eating.

'Maybe she's happy because Finn has accepted her feelings... I highly doubt it.'

It was well known that Tione had feelings for Finn, even Mark had seen how Tione behaved with the captain, but it seemed that the latter was not interested in her.

It might be a race factor, as they both belonged to different races, but it wouldn't make sense, as there were half races, like half-dwarves, half-elves. The second reason could be his age, because even though he didn't look like, due to his small body and teenage face, Finn was 42 years old.

'Well, it's not my problem.'

Meanwhile, Mark was thinking, Tione was analyzing him carefully.

'He looks good, tends not to look at other girls, has an absurd growth rate, is intelligent, it would be perfect if it weren't for his personality. But let's get to serious things. '

"Mark, do you like girls with big or small breasts?" -She asked him seriously.

'Cough cough!'

Hearing Tione's sudden question, Mark couldn't help but choke on what he was eating.

"What problems do you have?" -Mark asked her without words. He had met women with little sense of modesty, but the women of this world surprised him more and more.

"It's a vital question." - She told him with intensity.

'Do you want to have references, to understand men's tastes and get an idea of ​​what Finn would like?' - Mark thought strangely.

"...Haaaa. From my point of view, evaluating a woman only from her breasts seems to me quite derogatory, there are many more things to take into consideration. " -Said Mark rubbing his forehead.

"I understand, so you like them both." -Said Tione getting up.

"No wait, that's not what I meant-"

"Thanks for the answer Mark, see you later." -Before Mark could finish answering, Tione was already gone.

"It is impossible to reason with the Amazons." - Mark thought wearily, finishing eating.

While Mark finished eating, Tione went to the entrance of the room, where you could see Tiona, who continued to peek.

"So how did it go?" -She asked hesitantly

"Don't worry, he said he likes them, whether it's small or big." -Tione told her confidently, without even realizing that she had distorted Mark's words.

"So now I have to prove my qualities." -Said Tiona.

"Exactly. Mark seems to be a serious person, so if you show the dungeon how responsible you are, you will get his attention. " -She told her with a sly smile.

"Oho you're right." -Said Tiona happily.

This plan could have given a positive result in some respects, but if they had been more focused on Finn's explanation, they would have known, that they would have ended up in different teams.
