"Hahaha… hey! No~!"
"And then, the warrior fell asleep."
"What? Hey! Hahahaha~!"
We were just coming out of the haunted cave that Sir Quesnel had opened up for the people.
It was a fun place. Instead of being afraid, both of us had a good time there, and while we were inside, he was telling me about a certain warrior who journeyed through the east along with a pig and a monkey.
The story was simply a comedy and since he was being playful, it was even more fun.
'I almost fainted while laughing a few times~.'
It was amazing.
The fun we had inside there wasn't simply a mix of horror and laughter, but also a lovely mix of joy and masked tension.
"Hehe, it was fun~."
We walked to the other side, to the benches set to the side of the path leading to the academy castle, and sat down with a smile.
Then we looked at one another, in each other's eyes, and broke out laughing once again.
