TBATE Reaction Fic — Starting From Volume 8
A gentle silence settled between the three of them.
They watched Tessia sitting between Virion and her parents. Cynthia and Rinia sat nearby, along with the Leywins and the Twin Horns.
Regis glanced between them.
“Plus, she also has a nice pair of—”
“Shut up, Regis!” the father-daughter duo exclaimed.
“No fun…” Regis grumbled as he looked away.
“On that note…” he said.
Arthur and Sylvie turned toward him.
“Hmm?”
“What are we going to do about that bastard?”
The two blondes followed his gaze toward a particular Scythe.
Nico occasionally glanced toward Tessia.
Those glances did not sit well with Arthur.
Nor Sylvie.
Nor Regis.
Arthur remained conflicted about his former friend.
“I’m not sure yet—”
"First we chastise with a blazing hot iron rod, or maybe an aether stick with destruction, then pierce him through the jaw with a hook and hang him on the Alacriyan town square right after skinning him alive head to toe and scrub a few dozen lemons and sea salt," Sylvie said calmly.
Regis and Arthur froze.
Their heads slowly turned toward her.
Sylvie was smiling.
Calmly.
Happily.
Sweetly.
‘Goddamn…’ Regis thought.
‘I…’ Arthur found himself at a complete loss for words.
Sylvie tilted her head.
“Any problems?”
Arthur blinked, attempting to form a response.
Before he could speak, Regis placed a paw on Arthur’s thigh.
“Nope! Not at all!” he said cheerfully.
He was completely in favour of the idea.
Sylvie’s smile brightened.
“It’s a plan, then!”
Arthur’s eyes darted between them.
‘Well…he does kind of deserve it.’
