"What do you mean why? I did it so that we could be together. Aren't you happy that my plan succeeded?"
"No. I'm not happy, and I think this is the most foolish plan you ever had," she retorted.
"Ivy, what's wrong? This is not like you."
He tries to take a step closer to her, but she yelled, "Don't come near me!"
Her sudden yell startled him, and he took a step back with a worried face.
"Ivy, tell me, what's wrong? You're not acting like yourself. Is someone bothering you?"
"N-no. There is no one. I'm just angry that you did this without telling me, and I'm furious that you risk your title to start this battle."
He froze with his eyebrows raised, then chuckled, "Haha. Is that it?"
"It's not a laughing matter, Leon. You shouldn't have proposed this battle if it's going to risk everything you have!"
"Haha. Sorry. I'm laughing not because I'm not taking you seriously. I'm just happy to see you worry so much for me."
