Since Dowd didn't even know how to respond to Iliya's words, he just gave her a blank stare.

Iliya didn't even wait for his response before immediately firing off her next words though.

"Anyway, you're my fiancé, Teach! Everything will be okay as long as you listen to me!"

"...Um, excuse me...uh...Ms. Iliya—"

Before Dowd could finish his reply, Iliya cut him off sharply.

"T-That's why, g-get some more rest! I'll see you at the next ordeal!"

Just like before, her words came out rapidly.

It was almost as if she heard his response, she wouldn't be able to control herself from doing...unspeakable things...

With her face flushed red, she dashed out of the room as quickly as she spouted out her previous words. Leaving Dowd, who was watching her leave, slumped onto his bed dazedly.

"Excuse me, Caliban."

[Hm?]

Caliban barely managed to respond, as he desperately suppressing the nausea he felt.

'I can't believe this...'

'To think that I'd directly witness my own sister falling to such depths...'

'Is this karma for all the times I made fun of this guy...?'

"...MHow can this be possible? My goodness!"

[Mm.]

Caliban could understand his shock.

If he were to be confronted by a woman he had never seen before, then she claimed to be his fiancé while making absurd demand like he could only survive by listening to her alone, even he would be dumbfounded by—

"How could I forget my own fiancé? Was I out of my mind?"

[...]

Caliban barely held onto his fading consciousness.

'That's...not it...'

'Seriously, that's not fucking it!'

'Yes, you are out of your mind, I agree with that!'

'But that isn't the point! It was so obvious that Iliya was trying to force her way to create a relationship with you!'

'Also, you were literally the one who said that you wouldn't get into a serious relationship with anyone until the matters with the Prophet and the Devils are resolved!'

[...I dunno.]

"But, didn't you say you knew me before I lost my memories? Did you really not know anything about me having a—"

[If I said I don't know, then I don't know, you fucker.]

"..."

He disliked lashing out at someone who was asking a genuine question, but this was unavoidable for him.

'Fiancé, my ass...!'

Caliban internally screamed, grabbing at the back of his imaginary, nonexistent neck.

'There's no way I'd admit out loud that my sister was so blinded by greed that she resorted to deceit—!'

[...But, I do have a piece of advice for you.]

"Yes?"

[You might want to...double check at whatever words a woman told you. Just to see if it's genuine or not...]
