It Wasn't What It Seemed To Be

Chapter 36 -The Welcoming Village-

"Mafu!" A ravennette called out, trying to see if he could get a reply from the albino male. Which he did actually, but you might be asking why exactly. Well then, you see, a certain angel had previously wanted to go to the village. And well, Soraru had wanted to go with him. Though to be fair, he did want to spend time with the albino at least for a little, but not just him. He wanted to talk with Eve and Sou very much as well since they never talk a lot compared to others, and so he wanted to change that really.

"Alright, I'm ready now~!"

Looking over to see the door from the bedroom open, the albino had put on some comfortable looking clothing. His wings on the other hand was at question, because this time, they weren't anywhere visible at all. Soraru began to tilt his head a little as he continued to look at the angel.

"Why are you tucking in your wings? Isn't it uncomfortable?" The male asked in curiosity since by now he's usually used to seeing Mafu with his wings out. Smiling, he simply started to give his little response, "Well... I feel like my wings could give away which side I'm on." He said, but the older male could only lean over to the side.

"Though, I'm not sure if it'll help much Mafu. I mean, Luz is here as well, so you might get caught sooner of later."

He was right, the blonde is in fact here as well. If people see him, they'd immediately recognize him. Though Mafu probably knew this very well, the ravennette had guessed that the angel wanted to try newer things without anyone having possible fear of him. Especially of they find out that he's on Luz's side. The side of a Lord who's taken away countless lives before.

Even so though, the younger started to move up front before looking back at his friend, "You're right... But it's worth trying don't you think?" The expression from the ruby-eyed male had yet again, caught the swordsman off guard. For some reason, there was just something about him that caused the older to simply agree with whatever the other said. Was it the determined tone?

Was it his expression? What was it?

Snapping out of his thoughts, he simply gave a nod, "Sure. If you think you can pull it off, go ahead." He said, smiling to the other ever so slightly as he began to walk down the hall before seeing a few of their good friends.

"Ah, good morning you two~ Did you two sleep well?" Amatsuki asked as he started setting down the plates. Though of course the other brunette was there, for he was always helping his dear beloved in the kitchen. But from looking over at the wooden table, he noticed Sou and Eve already sitting down. The two turned to both of them as well before giving off a gave. Of course smiling, they returned the wave before stating their good morning's to each other. Of course Soraru though was the first to respond to Amatsuki's question without any problem.

"We did, what about the rest for you?"

Sou gave a happy nod before pulling the male next to him, "We did! Right?" He asked before Eve could only give a nod for response. Though the silence was still there, they could still tell that Eve was excited for the day as well. Before anything though, the brown-eyed male pull two of the wooden chairs as he then gestured towards both Mafu and Soraru, "Well-? Aren't you both going to eat? Me and Amatsuki prepared breakfast after all."

"Oh right! We're sorry!" Mafu said before quickly sitting down, though compared to him, the ravennette had taken his time to sit down, not wanting to accidentally fall over like a certain angel. Because it has indeed happened once where the younger male would just quickly sit down without giving it a thought most times.

And had he learned his lesson?

Obviously not-

Seeing the plates in front of them, they gave their thanks to the two males before they began to eat their meals. The food was well, once again amazing as ever. Though it was expected, the cooking was made from the motherly brunette himself after all. Though of course from the help of Kashitarou. So whenever it came to cooking and such, the two would always make the best dishes while still keeping the kitchen clean. It was truly a miracle that the two could do that, especially for the number of people like themselves.
