Scolded Herself

"Then do you want to be partners with me?"

"Huh?"

Lilith widened her eyes in surprise. As her heart raced in her chest, she looked at Amon with eagerness in her eyes as she also felt excitement. Other than worrying about what had happened between them recently, she still had this anticipation in joining the games.

"You... you're asking me?"

"Who else?" The Grim Reaper playfully scoffed, now turning his head to look at her. "I'm willing to play the game with you even though it's beyond my character."

Lilith didn't know what to say. Her heart is racing in her chest, yes... but she didn't expect Amon to be this extra nice towards her.

Why? Is there a reason?

"Well?" Amon spoke again, snapping Lilith out of her thoughts. "They mostly assumed that we partnered up, anyway. Might as well push it."

"Alright then," Lilith replied, clearing her throat. "Let's do our best to win then."
