An Invitation For A Dance

"Are you completely sure that, 'That Thing' is your son?"

"That..."

"Thing?", Elina was confused when she heard that.

More than that, she didn't understand what Seria was referring to.

'Is she talking about Rex?', was what she asked herself.

'Of course not, she wouldn't possibly call him a thing!'

"..."

Seria continuously stared at Elina and realized that she had no idea about what she was trying to say. However, she wanted to test her thinking because of which she asked her about Rex.

"So tell me, Elina, just how strong do you think your son is?"

"Does he really have no emblem?", she asked.

"..."

For some reason, Elina felt bad when Seria asked that. She thought as if she was ridiculous or making fun of him.

She knew that Seria didn't mean anything in that way but she couldn't stop herself from getting hurt by hearing her words.
