Lila experienced it from before: An extreme obsession that wished to consume Mel alive.
So she could tell; the bloodlust from before was genuine.
But just as much as the apology afterwards, ironically.
Frowning, Lila merely dismissed it later and asked. "By the way, should I try dispelling the snow from outside?"
Shameless she may be, Lila couldn't bear the guilt of disrupting numerous lives with her rashly changing the climate.
"Oh, no worries!"
Maria beamed as she held up a V-sign.
"Rather keep it up! As many disasters as possible would ensure us the victory we needed!"
"Ha?"
As Lila blinked confusedly, Mel sneakily gazed away to the air, seemingly.
In reality, she was reading a secret message offered by her Partner.
[ Well, the truth was that Envy's little spell had caused numerous disasters. ]
Mel shuddered a little before relaxing as Maria purred into her neck.
The hot, teasing breath showed it all; there was not a bone of tension in Maria right now.
