Chapter 481 - Durian\'s Mansion (part 5) - Waiting For That First Move

As it turned out, because of their sudden arrival, neither the bride to be nor the groom would be able to meet them the same day – but the maid informed each of them that they will be more than welcome to eat the breakfast together although later on the things might get a little bit hectic because of the preparations.

Although the maid had passed the message in the most timid way possible, it was rather easy to figure out the real meaning...

No. I don\'t want any of you to get involved.

The message that Durian was sending them was clear – and the fact that he couldn\'t find the time for his nephew even though said nephew was the first prince of the kingdom was speaking for itself.

Therefore the group spent the rest of the day in their respective room, mostly.

Cranberry refused to eat alone and demanded Zombie\'s presence with a big old pout, forcing the blue undead\'s hand.

He was too preoccupied with the movement of his two childhood friends, who honestly started acting a little bit frantically – it looked like they tried to check up on the blue undead without actually coming in contact with him.

It was both amusing and slightly concerning to watch – not to mention distracting, so he ended up causing Cranberry\'s pouting to become several times more severe to the point that it looked as if she was storing the food in her cheeks like a hamster.

"Hmph! If that\'s how things will be, then fine! I will get back to my room!"

The red-haired girl declared and stood up from the table after finishing her meal.

"Sure – remember to not do anything stupid, we don\'t want to get Marbie in trouble, right?"

"...!"

The blue called at her back and smirked seeing the girl flinch as if she got caught red-handed.

"...I will do whatever I want – it\'s not like you care anyway..."

Cranberry mumbled, turning her head slightly and glancing at her blue familiar.

"Hmm – is that how it looks from your perspective...?"

Instead of arguing back, the blue undead tilted his head and put up his index finger to his mouth, making himself look deep in thoughts.

"Say... We never kissed, did we?"

"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Zombie asked and saw Cranberry\'s face, ears, and neck turning crimson red at the mere mention of the activity.

|...where are you going with this...?|

The sealed being inside the blue undead sounded as if she jolted up from a nap and asked in a suspicious voice, but was overall ignored.

"How about a deal?"

Zombie asked the blushing girl already on her way to the door.

"I promise you that if you don\'t initiate any trouble tonight, we will smooch~"

The blue undead smirk grew wider as he winked at the red-haired girl who seemed to be considered something of great importance.

|You are playing dirty. You are doing the right thing, but you are playing so dirty...!|

The sealed being sounded as if she was hissing like an angry snake right into the blue undead\'s ear, but that only made the blue undead smirk turn into a full-blown smile – that in turn made Cranberry lower her eyes from embarrassment.

"...the deal is about just not initiating the trouble... right...?"

The red-haired girl fidgeted and asked carefully, peeking at Zombie\'s face.

"Of course. You always have to defend yourself, that\'s not even up for debate – I\'m only talking about you actively seeking confli..."

"DEAL!"

The red-haired girl jumped around and grabbed Zombie\'s hand sealing the deal before he even properly finished his sentence.

"Say... maybe, to make sure that I will keep my end of the deal you come to my room...? Or maybe I will just stay here... Only to make it easier for you to keep an eye on me holding up my end of the deal!"

Cranberry fidgetted and said timidly, gazing hopefully at the blue undead\'s face.

|...I am not surprised, but I am slightly ashamed...|

The sealed being didn\'t leave that situation without comment and sighed in a defeated voice.

As for the blue undead...

He looked away as if he was considering Cranberry\'s proposition – while in fact, he was catching up on the movements of one of the two familiar life signatures that seemed to have been hesitantly making their way towards the guest rooms occupied by their group – before looking back up at the hopeful red-haired girl and shaking his head.

"Sorry, no can do – we need to think about your opinion first – the last time I checked even a well-spoken undead is considered as something unworthy in the eyes of the members of the system\'s faith – we don\'t want want to make the public your enemy..."

He shrugged his shoulders while shaking his head.

"...who cares about that..."

Cranberry grumbled making a grumpy expression, very much dissatisfied with the answer given to her.

"Sorry, but that is my condition for our little deal."

Yet the blue undead was ruthless as he simply shrugged his shoulders and smirked softly at the girl.

"Fine... but you better not try to get away later on! I will not forgive you for trying to blow me off!"

The red-haired girl scoffed and let go of Zombie\'s hand and dragged her feet towards the exit.

"And it better not be just some childish kiss on the forehead!"

She turned around one last time and declared, pointing her finger at the blue undead with a serious face before walking out and closing the door.

|So naive~|

Zombie smirked to himself – thinking especially loud to make sure that the sealed being knows that he is initiating a conversation.

|Ha? What does that suppose to mean? Are you lying to Cranberry?!|

...and not only did she respond – she sounded actually mad.

|Yes. I am a bad bad liar – as proven by one of my titles – thanks for noticing~|

|!!!!!|

The blue undead admitted it so easily that the sealed being became speechless.

|Though, it\'s not really my fault this time. She is imagining some grand kiss, but I only promised her a smooch.|

Zombie explained casually while shrugging his shoulders.

|You...!|

The sealed being gasped in exasperation...

|Do not think even for a second that lying like that will not come back to bite you in your cute cold butt!|

...and shouted furiously.

|Sorry, come again? What was that last part?|

Zombie furrowed his brows and asked.

|Lying like that will come back to bite you in your cold butt!|

The sealed being repeated herself without hesitation.

|Kahahaha! Look who\'s a liar now. I heard you the first time, you know?|

|Shut up!|

The blue undead laughed and pointed out which prompted the immediate and embarrassed response from the sealed being sounding as if she was blushing heavily.

*knock* *knock*

|HA! Cranberry must have realized your puny word games!|

Using the knocking as a distraction the sealed being tried to change the subject.

|Nope. That\'s not her.|

But the blue undead only scoffed internally and shook his head.

"The door\'s open, come in. Mia."

*click*

Zombie called out and the door opened, revealing a tall dark-skinned woman wearing barbarian-style armor set coupled with the intimidating mace at her waist.

"It really is you, Zombie..."

She said with a solemn expression and entered the room, closing the door behind her.
