Chapter 183: Awkward Reception

(He went straight for that?!)

Akuma shivered in his seat.

"W-we're really just… classmates. But Yuurei-chan and Okaa-san both have been good to me, that if I could make them happy by obliging to their invitations, then I would do it. Although, I am aware that I have been abusing their kindness…"

Angelie looked at Mazoku directly with all the conviction she had.

"I see… To be honest, I wanted to meet you since Sourei told me you'd be here during my son's birthday. If you say that you’re just classmates, I am inclined to believe you, but the fact that you call my wife 'Okaa-san' seems to counter your point."

Mazoku continued to eat casually.

"Of course, she's going to be a bit shy. She's meeting her father-in-law for the first time—"

"Please, don't tell him something that's not true, Okaa-san!"

Angelie looked at Sourei with her face fully flushed.

"Do you mean that you're not shy right now, or…"

Sourei had a bit of a faint smile on her face.
