...Huh?
This "Skeleton Duke" actually initiated a conversation?
Had such an exchange ever occurred before?
Longjing Tea looked up in surprise, finding that the others were just as astonished as he was.
— That meant it hadn't happened.
Strange, what exactly triggered this dialogue...
Longjing Tea pondered, yet his face immediately showed a kind smile that was convincing, "We do indeed have a small favor to ask of you... "
"Oh! Please go ahead," the youth confidently said, "I happen to be very free today!"
"Then let's get to know each other formally."
Longjing Tea extended his hand and shook hands with the youth, putting on a serious and stern face for show, "I am Longjing Tea, Assistant Inspector and also a 'Special Spell Advisor' for Angus City."
"...Oh!"
The white-haired youth became somewhat nervous upon hearing this.
