After waiting for some time, Adam was currently enjoying one of the many hot springs in the city. However to his surprise, he looked over to find someone he didn't expect was in the Holy city as well.
Adam: Princess Alexia.
Alexia: A-A-Adam?!
Both sat in silence for a moment. Adam had the hand towel over his eyes as he relaxed. Alexia managed to regain her composure and continued bathing as well.
Adam: I take it you were invited as well?
She nods. She looked over at Adam, she noticed the scar on his arm. He felt her gaze as he removed the towel.
Adam: Curious about the scar?
She looked away, blushing.
Alexia: A little...
He smiled. He looked at the sky.
Adam: I got it from training with Cid one night. By the way he's still alive..
Alexia: Damn and I cut him up pretty badly when I lost my temper.
He looked over at her.
Adam: You even aimed at the head, how'd you not kill him with that swing of yours?
Alexia blushes looking back at him.
Alexia: I didn't really try to kill him! I mean... He did break up with me and all ...
Adam: By the way.. how are you holding up?
She looked at him confused by his question.
Alexia: What do you mean? As you can see I'm perfectly fine.
He chuckles.
Adam: Alright princess.
He looked back up at the sky. Alexia was stretching her arms, she noticed he seems more interesting in the heavens at the moment.
Alexia: You seem dazed? Is everything alright , Mr. Kagenou?
Adam: You can call me Adam, and I'm perfectly fine. I'm just here relaxing in the hot spring before I partake in the trials.
Hearing him say that, she was surprised.
Alexia: You already won your right to partake in the Bushin Festival and now you wanna clash with a heroic spirit? What are you trying to be the next upcoming Hero?
Adam: Nah I'm going higher than that.
After a few moments of silence.
Alexia: Your an Odd one.
Adam: What do you mean?
Alexia held her hand over her chest.
Alexia: I had assumed you would ogle me like you were trying to eat me with your eyes. But I see I was wrong.
