Elder Hana looked at the box in front of her with interest. She had not expected to find such kindness in The Hive's motives.
Not only had they given her the option of paying later, but they had also delivered her order quickly. Elder Hana wanted to reward The Hive.
"I understand. Don't be a stranger in the future then. If there is anything you need me or the Tsurugi family to do for you, do let me know. I will be happy to help you out."
Elder Hana promised this with a happy expression. Her elated state was obvious for everyone to see.
"Hmm, I will let you know."
Finally, The Hive member left and Elder Hana decided it was time to open the box. She was nervous and excited at the same time to look at what was inside it.
Once Elder Hana opened the box, she was disappointed to see that there was nothing inside it. She felt scammed and her feelings of good-will turned into anger and annoyance.
