                                                                          Komugi sipped her green tea. "What a peaceful day." She thought to herself.
Although she couldn't see any of her surroundings, the fresh air the outdoors had to offer was a replacement for a nice view her acquaintances were able to see. It was the most refreshing thing a typical day like this had to offer. As she was just beginning to get absorbed in the feel of the outdoors, she felt a heavy tap on her shoulder. "Supreme Leader?" Said Komugi, turning in the direction of the tap. Komugi could always tell if it was Meruem attempting to get her attention. His fingers were the most bulky and heavy out of everyone in the castle. "Hello, Komugi." Said Meruem.

Komugi smiled. "What can I do for you? Do you want to play Gungi again? I suppose we could play another match!"
Meruem shook his head.
"No. I am not seeking to play Gungi."
"Oh! Then...what do you want to do?"
In reality, Meruem had just wanted to check on the Gungi player. He hadn't planned to initiate any activities or conversation with her. But at the same time, she seemed excited to be approached by him. He had to come up with something quick...
"Leader? Are you still there?" Said Komugi.
"I told you to refer to me as Meruem."
"O-of course! Forgive me!" Said Komugi as she bowed to him.
"No need to do that, Komugi."
"Oh! Ok!"
"I was looking to converse with you." Said Meruem.
It was the quickest and simplest thing he could come up with.
"C-converse with me? Really-?"
"Do not make me repeat myself."
"Ok! Sure...!"
Meruem sighed to himself. He realized how rude he had said that.
He sat down next to the small woman.
Komugi opened her light, unseeing eyes to face the king.
"N-nice weather we're having today.."
Said Komugi, attempting to make conversation with the Chimera ant.
"I suppose so.,"
"..."
Meruem took out a handkerchief and wiped Komugi's small nose with it.
"You need to start wiping your nose routinely."
"Thank you! You are so kind!" Said Komugi as she smiled at the king.
Meruem patted her head as she babbled about how kind he was.
He loved spending time with the Gungi player.
