A Monster...?
Was that directed at me?
Hearing the turtle's words, I couldn't help but look dumbfounded.
"Who's calling who a monster here?"
From my perspective, the other guy looked way more like a monster, yet he had the nerve to call me one. It was absurd.
"Hmmm."
The turtle looked at me, its gaze peculiar.
"Master. Where on earth did you pick up something like this?"
"Hey, that's a bit much to say right in front of someone."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Finally, unable to tolerate the constant rudeness, Shin Noya spoke up to the turtle.
"No matter how monstrous this kid may lookâ"
"Noya?"
"Calling someone a monster, that's incredibly rude! Even if they look like oneâ"
"Hey."
"After looking closely, you've gone too far. If that's the case, perhaps I should cut your plum tea quota to three monthsâ"
"Donât try that, Master."
"Tsk."
"You damned bastards..."
