"I really thought I was gonna die."

"Good thing we saved you, right?!"

"… I don't wanna talk about it. I feel like my trust in you guys has gone down quite a bit."

"Don't say it like that. We still have to get the drops from other monsters so that we can get a lot of money…" says Elm while putting his arm around Tatsuya's neck.

"Yes. Yes. I get it… You probably just want to put me on the front lines just so you don't have to fight."

"Ah… you knew my plan. I should've come up with something more complicated. Hm…." Says Elm and Tatsuya asks Sylvie and Kirio, "Is this guy always like this. Dumb?"

"Yes. Dumb."

"Dumb for life."

"Dumb… Oh, now I've remembered that other idiot."

Meanwhile in the Kingdom…

"You caught a cold?"

"No that's not what I was asking. I though you were interested in small kids only… How did you end up falling for…" and before he could complete his sentence Luna punches him in the gut and he falls down in pain.
