~Babil, 6115 a.d. Day 171~
Maxxy woke up.
Ruby gained some distance before telling the both of them, "If any of those centipedes try to attack me, make sure you wake me up, okay?"
Ruby was not so foolish as to go to sleep without protecting herself first. She cast a spell around her in secret. The spell would create ten metres of space between Ruby and whoever or whatever came in contact with it. She leaned against the wall while seated down, turning her head away from Maxxy and Consisus.
She used her cloak as a cover and pinched her thumb and index finger together to form a circle. She looked through the circle, seeing both Maxxy and Consisus sitting down.
They were quiet for a long time.
After what felt like forever, Maxxy finally spoke. "So... I have been wondering... who is your daughter?"
"None of your business," Consisus grumbled.
"We're teammates here," Maxxy insisted. "We ought to know more about each other, right?"
