Scarlett gave Lunatic a pointed look, "I think you should apologize a bit more *sincerely,*" she said with a smirk.

Lunatic just shrugged, giving a smug smile. "Why should I? Your clothes were already torn up, so what's the harm? Anyway, this is one of the changing rooms in the red-light district. There are loads of outfits here—pick something to wear!"

"What do you want to wear ? ", Lunatic questions.

Scarlett raised an eyebrow, clearly unbothered. "Honestly, I don't care much of how I look. I never even thought about changing until you brought it up." She shrugged, brushing off the situation.

Hearing this, Lunatic's eyes sparked with excitement. "Well, if you're giving me the freedom to choose…" She practically pushed Scarlett onto a nearby stool facing a full-length mirror. The room was stocked with an assortment of outfits, from traditional to outlandish cosplays.

"Alright, let's start!" Lunatic clapped her hands, pulling out the first outfit: a *sheer orange Chinese-style dress.* It left very little to the imagination, practically translucent, hugging Scarlett's form in a way that highlighted her every curve.

"Uh… no. Too revealing," Scarlett muttered, crossing her arms in discomfort.

"Didn't you said,You don't care how you look? Fine!" Lunatic pulled out the next outfit: a classic *maid costume* with ruffles and lace. Scarlett's chest pressed against the fabric so tightly that it looked like it might tear at any second.

"Definitely no cosplays," Scarlett said flatly.

Lunatic grinned mischievously, undeterred. "What about this?" She pulled out a *bunny costume* complete with ears and a fluffy tail. Scarlett's face twitched, an irritated vein appearing on her forehead.

"I said, *no cosplay.* You want a punch in the face?" Scarlett muttered, clearly losing patience.

But Lunatic couldn't help herself. She picked out more outlandish costumes—a *pirate outfit* with an overly tight corset, a *nurse outfit* that was more impractical than professional, and a *cat costume* complete with a tail. Each time, Scarlett's reactions ranged from disbelief to outright frustration, but Lunatic was having the time of her life.

Finally, Lunatic paused, laughing. "Alright, alright, I'll find something a bit more…sensible." She dug through the racks and finally made Scarlett wear her last clothe.

Scarlett glanced at herself in the mirror, taking in the outfit Lunatic had chosen—a bold off-shoulder crop top that revealed nearly her entire upper body, covering just enough to leave her guessing if it'd stay in place. The fabric grazed her shoulders and barely stretched over her chest, leaving her midriff and well-toned abs completely visible. It was one of those tops where even the smallest movement might cause it to slip up, revealing more than intended.

Below, the high-waisted black pants sat loosely around her hips, clinging just enough to give a tantalizing hint of her form but so loose that they seemed ready to slip. The high cut around her waist and the almost invisible thong beneath left her hips bare, adding a suggestive edge to her already daring outfit, Although Scarlett resisted ok wearing it so much but aftera long fight, Lunatic won and made her wear this. She couldn't help but notice how the slightest movement might reveal the slim straps of the underwear clinging to her.

Scarlett groaned, exasperated. "Seriously, why are all these outfits so... revealing?"

Lunatic scratched her head with a grin. "You did say you wanted something easy to move around in. This is perfect for that!"

"Perfect, huh?" Scarlett muttered, testing the outfit as she moved side to side. Admittedly, it was easy to move in, and the loose pants allowed her a full range of motion. But she couldn't deny the strange feeling it brought, making her cheeks flush as she squirmed a little in discomfort.

She shifted her thighs, glancing down as she felt the unusual fit of the thong and thin bra. "This is my first time wearing anything like this," she thought, feeling awkward and exposed. She took a deep breath, forcing herself to focus on the comfort. "Well… at least it's easier to move around in," she admitted, stretching her arms above her head with a long yawn.

The crop top slid even higher up her toned midriff, giving Lunatic a clear view of her sculpted abs and a peek of her lower chest. The outfit's casual allure had Lunatic's eyes glued, shamelessly admiring Scarlett's figure.

"Can I squeeze them?" Lunatic asked, with absolutely no shame.

"Definitely not!" Scarlett shot back, rolling her eyes.

Lunatic watched as Scarlett adjusted her blindfold, tying it securely over her eyes once again, hiding their intensity. She'd taken it off earlier when she was changing, and now that she was ready, she seemed back to her usual self.

Scarlett exhaled, feeling a sense of closure. "Alright, two things settled," she said, satisfied. "But if you've got any other unique skills, now's the time to spill! Don't hold back," she added, her tone light but curious as she prepared to leave.

Lunatic pondered for a moment, her brows furrowed in thought. Then, a small glint sparked in her eyes as an idea came to mind. "Well…" she said slowly, a bit of excitement creeping into her voice. "I do have *something*—but it's not exactly a skill."

Scarlett raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "Oh? And what's that?"

"It's called 'Dream,'" Lunatic replied softly, as if sharing a secret.

---------

After talking at length, Scarlett decided to invite Lunatic to join the journey to Gwarga Kingdom, explaining the situation with Lórien and his father in detail. Lunatic listened attentively, giving her approval with a thumbs-up. She also mentioned Yumi Yamamoto, whom she had put to sleep earlier; Yumi was still resting, with Lunatic's people looking after her.

With everything settled, Scarlett and Lunatic stepped outside, feeling the warm sunlight spill over them, casting a glow on their skin. They were about to part ways to handle their respective tasks when someone suddenly appeared in front of them.

"I finally found you! I've been looking all over!" said the woman, whose shadow loomed over Scarlett and Lunatic.

The woman was striking, with neon-green hair and lips and a tanned complexion. Standing much taller than both of them, she was unmistakably Reiza.

Scarlett's face brightened at the sight of Reiza, as they hadn't crossed paths much lately. Lunatic, on the other hand, scowled, as though she'd tasted something bitter. "Why is Scarlett so happy to see her?" she wondered, feeling Scarlett's joy through their heart pact. Although Lunatic could sense Scarlett's emotions, she couldn't access her memories, so Scarlett's connection with Reiza remained a mystery to her.

Since Lunatic's arrival, she hadn't had in-depth conversations with anyone but knew Reiza's name and her reputation as one of Dreadhaven's elite soldiers.

"What's going on?" Scarlett asked, looking between Reiza and Lunatic with a hint of curiosity.

Reiza chuckled, then got serious. "Well, I've split the ogres into two groups, and I'll be leading one of them. But I can't decide who should lead the other. I've chosen a few candidates, but I could really use your help to pick the best one," she explained, looking hopeful.

"Got it! I'll go check them out!" Scarlett replied cheerfully, quickly heading off to do the job. Reiza stood watching her leave, a big smile spreading across her face as Scarlett disappeared from sight.

Lunatic, however, was visibly annoyed. She glared at Reiza, mumbling, "What's with that huge grin? Is there some show I'm missing?" Jealousy simmered in her tone.

The moment Scarlett was out of sight, Reiza's smile faded, and she turned sharply to Lunatic. "Hey! What were you two doing before I showed up?" she demanded, crossing her arms. But her face soon flushed red, and she stammered, "Not that I'm, um, suspicious or anything. I totally trust Scarlett! It's just that… uhh…" She trailed off, her cheeks glowing red.

"Hehehe... I'll destroy their relationship before even it can begun! ", Lunatic thought in a evil way.

Lunatic, sensing an opportunity, smirked mischievously and leaned close to Reiza's ear. "Oh, it's a secret, okay? But… we were, uh… having a little fun, You know what I mean right? ," she whispered.

Reiza's eyes widened as she stared at Lunatic, who was now grinning wickedly, throwing out whatever nonsense she could think of. "Yeah, yeah, we're in a *deep* relationship—"

Before she could finish, Reiza's hand clamped down on her shoulder, the grip firm and clearly angry, despite the smile plastered on her face. "What did you just say? You were having… *fun* with my wife?"

Lunatic's jaw dropped. "W-wife?" she stammered, eyes widening as she realized she might have pushed things a bit too far. Reiza's smile grew, but her fingers dug in even tighter, sending Lunatic into full-on panic mode.

Reiza's grip strength was so strong that, Lunatic's feet was slowly burying inside the ground with just slight force.
