Deranged Writer's Afterword

" AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

Lydia's screams rang out through the misty hot spring, I quickly reclaim my fallen towel and cover myself up.

" YOU'RE A BOY ?!", Nephyr screamed out looking traumatized.

.....

" OF COURSE, I'M A BOY !.... DIDN'T I SAY THAT MY NAME WAS ADAM ?"

" I THOUGHT THAT WAS SHORT FOR SOMETHING...."

...

What?

What did she think Adam was short for...Adamina?

" NEVER MIND ALL THAT....GET OUT !", Lydia kicked me out of the hot spring, I go back and enter the other entryway, probably used by the males.

Still a little dazed, I enter the hot spring yet again.

....

I think Lydia might be dumber than me, but in her defense, my appearance was more.....feminine due to my [Weak Body] but still, I didn't think that its effects would be this...strong,

Are my skills getting stronger on their own or something?

I spent some time getting soaked, deep in thought.

But after some time, I decided to get out as I wanted to explore this place a little more before calling it a day. Getting outside, I'm surprised to see Lydia waiting for me.

" Uh- did you wait for long ?", I ask avoiding her eyes.

" N-no, I didn't wait that long....", She replied, avoiding my eyes.

The both of us silently stare at the ground for a weirdly long time before Lydia says,

" Well....let's head to my home..."

Lydia slowly started leading me to her house since she's the one that has to keep an eye on me, I suppose it can't be helped...

As we were walking side by side along a rugged path, Lydia says,

" Hey....I've been thinking..."

" Yeah ?", I say walking beside her.

" I know it's a little unconventional but I think it might work..."

" Hmmm....what will work ?"

" Our marriage, dummy !"

.....

" WHAT ?!"

Seeing my adverse reaction, Lydia has a quizzical look on her face,

" Don't tell me you don't know ?"

.....

" I guess you don't, well it's tradition for us to marry the first person that sees us naked."

" I d-didn't know....", I say edging away from her.

Lydia has an ominous smile on her face as she moved closer to me,

" You're going to take responsibility aren't you ?"

I think about what exactly I should say to fix this absurd situation,

...

" I mean....it isn't like there was much to see...", I say my eyes on her flat chest.

" What ?"

...

" I'm sorry....", I say backing away even further.

...

I avoid her eyes and stare intensely at the ground but I'm forced to look up at her as I hear her laughing like a maniac,

" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.....look at your face !"

Oh...she must have been joking...

" Hahahaha...you got me good."

Lydia puts her hand on my shoulder and puts a little too much pressure on it,

" Hmmm...I feel like you said something troubling earlier.."

"Oh no...I would never, you must have been imagining it.", I say sweating a little.

" I'll let you go just this once...hmph.", Lydia says letting go of me.

As we continue with our walk, we're back to chatting normally....

It wasn't that awkward anymore.

" This is my house !", Lydia proclaimed proudly.

We were in front of a shabby little building that looked like it would collapse soon, I suppose she's not exactly wealthy.

" Do you live alone ?", I ask as we entered the house.

" I live with my grandma...", Lydia says taking off her shoes before moving further into the house.

Well...I hope I don't kill Lydia's grandmother during my stay here.

I remove the shoes I had on as well, following Lydia's example.

" Grandma, I'm home !"

'Streak'

An elderly wolf appeared supporting herself on a cane, her appearance was the same as Lydia's except for the grey spots on her body.

" Oh my, they released you earlier than I th-"

The elder stopped speaking as her eyes fell on me.

" Oh my, I heard rumors about a human breaking in.....who would have guessed that they were true."

" I didn't break in, ma'am....it was just a misunderstanding.", I say respectfully.

" Is that so ?"

The woman stared at Lydia and me expectantly,

" Oh right, this is Adam, and Adam this is my grandmother...Georna."

" Hmm, it's quite a pleasure to meet you, young man.", Georna took my hand into hers and kept it there for a while.

I try to take my hand away but Gerona had a surprisingly strong grip, her eyes go completely white and I felt strange.....

" What's happening ?", I ask Lydia who didn't seem that confused by her grandmother's actions.

" She's----"

Just as she was about to answer my question, Georna let go of my hand and her eyes return to normal.

'Huff'

She seemed to have overexerted herself...

" Oh my.....", Georna says catching her breath.

" What's wrong grandma ?", Lydia asked looking worried.

...

Georna stared at Adam, a grim look enveloping her face as she says,

" This boy is dying."
