He coughed up his water with a low chuckle accompanying the chocking he had been experiencing. "Talk about cheesy" Eifah continued to hit his own chest until he felt his throat at ease, however, it didn't prevent him from proceeding with his laugh of mockery.



William laid his hand on the table, his eyebrows lowering to express his unsatisfactory towards Eifah's remark. "I'm not kidding Eifah," He fixed his back in the brink of the moment which had made his vocals all the more clear and understandable. "We should take off." William, at that point, extended his hand to snatch the glass of water, spilling it out on the ground, demonstrating he wasn't messing around.



"Knowing you, you would've said something along the lines of," He stopped to clear his throat, talking in a higher pitch to trade the mockery Eifah had given him recently. "I still have a drink I haven't finished, I wouldn't want to waste it by leaving." William snickered afterward, putting the empty glass back on the table and taking off with a scoff.



"It's fine by me if people believe I'm a demon, I'm still saving their sorry asses, they just don't appreciate it," Eifah said in a composed manner after leaving a tip on the table and chasing after William.



"Besides, for now, it's only gossip, rumors eventually fade away over time." Proposed Eifah, fixing his detailed robe so it wouldn't slip off.



"Not unless if somebody discovers proof of your memories." William reasoned, warily glancing around as to avoid anyone from listening into their conversation.



"Don't be so worried, it's not possible for anyone to hear us. I've put a sound resistant barrier. We can hear the outside yet they can't hear us." Eifah disclosed to comfort William, noticing his frantic movements. Backing up his statement, he grabbed a pebble and tossed it, the rock captured in an invisible field defying physics. With each step they took, the barrier which moved with them had the pebble drifting, glued to it.



"Returning to the subject, they can't find evidence of something that isn't valid." Eifah's voice shifted into sounding reassuring, he was confident with his clarifications making it sound more believable.



William hated to be the downer yet he preferred not to admit defeat, stubbornly clinging to his caution as opposed to tolerating Eifah's explanations. "You have the same abilities just as he had, that is more than enough evidence."



The yale blue-haired man had still looked before him, he wasn't at all phased and appeared to have limitless countermeasures to the blondies warnings. "Simply say the name, Judar, it doesn't kill anybody." He shrugged his shoulders then scratched the side of his cheek. "I may have his abilities, however, I'm still an important member of the magic committee. If I sound logical and explain those specific abilities, I'll get away with it."



"Or they only care about your magic and will dissect you as they did when you were a child" William quietly whispered to himself, however, Eifah still caught what he had said.



"That was Caershire's magic council, you're overlooking the queen of Hillford's love for Judar, she would prevent any casualties as long as we're in her domain." When William looked over at Eifah, he saw that the man's demeanor hadn't been changed to be a smile or a frown, it was only an ordinary relaxed face, he knew by then nothing will get past that thick skull of his.



"Your fault if people start hunting you because they think you're Judar" He directed towards Eifah with a huff.



Eifah grinned in his triumph, finally looking over at William himself "No one said a hero must be cherished by its people."



"And no one said you're a hero boastful bastard." With that stated, they both laughed on queue whilst aggressively pushing each other using their elbows to reflect their bittersweet relationship.
