As they got closer to Kalmore, the days started to become colder. The trees started to show branches without leaves, and the blowing wind became a little bit more colder. It wouldn’t be amiss to call it winter. However, the weather wasn’t the one making the party members cold…..

“Irial, dear~ Are you cold? Come here. I’ll make you warm~!”

“Ah-eeng.(TLN:cutesy noise) Really, Harold…”

…the two of them were making them have goosebumps upon goosebumps. Even though the temperature was changing, another factor was making them feel cold. Even I, who can’t feel the temperature, started to feel a chill. As this continued, Matey and Hosane’s face started to turn pale, and I couldn’t blame them.

I let out a sigh at the couple causing a massive disruption. The sight of them bickering and fighting was a distant memory now. After confirming their hearts, the two of them became inseparable like sticky rice.

Dear~ My baby~ They used such goosebump inducing words… They didn’t hesitate to show excessive displays of affection like kisses and hugs. They were rubbing salt on the wounds of the people who were still single. However, it was more of a problem, because they didn’t care if it bothered the other people.

“Hey…Harold, Irial. It isn’t just us, so…Other people are watching, so the kissing is…”

I tried to warn them, while I perspired. However, they replied with an uncaring attitude.

“Usually, couples have to frequently confirm their affection, El! You are a man, so remember it!”

“Ah-haha…is, is that so?”

“Shit. What do you mean by that?? El! Don’t be bewitched by that bastard’s words! You turncoat! Fine, go eat and live well by yourself!! ”

Finally, Matey’s eyes flipped with jealousy, and he continued to cry out. Even Hosane, who was next to him, started to actively nod his head at his words. However, Harold wasn’t someone who would blink his eyes at those word. Instead, he grinned as if he was trying to provoke them. Then he hugged Irial’s waist more energetically.

“Why do you want me to live well by myself? I’ll live well with Irial by my side~ You guys are single, so I should wish you luck~ Mwahahaha!”

“Eeek~ You damn bastard!”

“I want to kill that bastard!”

“Should we throw a spear at him?”

It was lunch time. The procession had stopped for a meal. All the mercenaries started glaring at Harold with cold eyes. However, they had to swallow their tears and turn back when Irial spoke…

“Oh yeah? Why don’t you lower your eyes? Who are you glaring at right now? Ahng?(TLN: SFX a delinquent usually makes) You want to be whipped to death?”

“Ah-ee~ Dear you are so cool~~”

“Oh-hohoho~ Of course, dear~ If they bother you, then just tell me from now on. I’ll beat all of them up.”

“Oong, oong! I’ll only trust you dear~~”

“ ……. ”

My god…Are they the same people from a month ago, who went nuts ,as they went after each other’s throat?  I heard before a relationship could really mess people up, but I could only shake my head with a ghastly expression  when it was confirmed.  Harold and Irial was progressively letting the chicken feather fly, and Sherry could only look on in envy.  I couldn’t understand either of them.  (TLN: the term chicken feather is a literal translation.  I’ll try to explain it more on the bottom if anyone is confused.)
