Prelude to White Labyrinth Exploration Arc.
---
(POV: Akashic Records)
After Ruri bid farewell to Kennedy and ventured into the Dragons' Gate, Kennedy mounted his carriage with Anastasia and made his way towards Ribune, a city in Argentia. It was also where Lumiere and Lucilia, had found solace when they first arrived.
As they approached the city, the carriage came to a halt in front of a magnificent hotel.
Somewhere around the corner, Lumiere was heading back with Lucilia.
"I can't believe those guys were crying... Honestly..." Lucilia felt irritated.
With a nervous chuckle, Lumiere told her, "Maybe if you didn't insult their appearance, they'd still have some dignity left..."
"Insult them? I was simply correcting them," Lucilia averted her gaze dramatically. "Hmph! It's not my fault that they're dirty..."
"Yeah, but calling them 'Dirty pigs' isn't really the best way to yunno... Correct them..."
