*Shini immediately clung onto him as tightly as possible, light dust particles fell off her occasionally as soon as they took flight.*
A-Are you sure it's safe?
ใ ค
โ Alright, I'm gonna fly you there so hold me tight ~ โ
He then proceeded to float after he princess carried her upon heading to their destination.

*Shini pulled her hand back for a moment, darting her head between him and his hand silently, before slowly nodding while gently wrapping her hand around his.*
I-If you say so...
ใ ค
โ Trust me, it wouldn't be a waste.. let me be a gentleman. โ
Soft chuckle from him, which is a bit rare to come by, especially with that smile he had curved up from his lips, he'd then gestured for her to take his hand.
ใ ค
*Shini's eyes immediately sparkled slightly in excitement before quickly turning her head away to hide it.*
A-Are you sure? I mean, you don't have to...I don't need...Any...
...Some...Food does sound nice though...But I don't want you to waste your money on someone like me!
ใ ค
โ Come with me, let me.. at least buy you a meal, miss Shini, in these darkest times there has to be something that would brighten our lives yeah? โ
He offered a hand with a slight smile and gestured for her to take it.
ใ ค
*Shini twitched around slightly before slowly turning her head away silently.*
Y-You don't have to apologize...If anything, I should be the one apologizing for being in such a state...
...I just...Wish I had a better role in life...
ใ ค
โ You really don't have to, but.. I appreciate it, Miss Shini...
Grim Reaper? I've encountered the angel of death before, Azrael, perhaps you might be acquainted.
Forgive me for bothering your business. โ
He said as he bowed slightly as a sign of apology.

*The girl remained silent for a moment, her eyes darting away quietly, before eventually lifting up her head.*
...Well...If you're going to be so honest, then...It's probably right for me to do the same...
...My name...Is Shini, daughter of the grim reaper...
ใ ค
โ Perhaps.. I'm not, as human as you think.. โ
He said as he landed on the ground after he had floated in mid air, he approached her once more.
โ I was a test subject when I was a kid, I have the blood of a holy, omnipotent Templar Knight.. โ
ใ ค
*The girl gently rubbed her cheek for a moment before slowly pulling her hand back, the mist slowly evaporating back into her cheek. Before long, the girl slowly stood up while bowing slightly.*
D-Don't be! It's just...It's been so long since I last...Even talked to a human...
G-Gah!
*The girl flinched at his touch, dark mist spewing out slightly from her cheek. She hasn't been touched for a long time, so how close they were made her panic.*
A-Ah! I...I am sorry!
ใ ค
โ .. Ma'am,.. I can't leave you alone here like this, let me.. help. โ
His morals won't let him just go away, caressing her cheek as he leaned closer.
ใ ค
*After a moment of silence, the girl slowly shifted away, lifting up her head with a small tear running down her cheek.*
...P-Please...Leave me alone...I'll deal with this...
ใ ค
His eyes began widening slightly, with a rather concerning expression while still being a bit confused..
โ Ma'am... โ
He said as he knelt down for a moment and looked at her.
