62 Mysterious Adult

As he walked through the streets of Elsia beside the girl, he watched her out of the corner of her eye, which she noticed quickly as she huffed.

"...I swore on 'Aerium The Great', didn't I?" Reno asked.

"Well…" He wryly smiled.

"You have no idea, do you?! Children of Aerium can't break a promise like that!" Reno looked at him.

The girl was quite loud in her words, drawing attention from the goers of the city as he glanced around, not much of a fan of all the unwanted gazes.

"Err, sure…" He nervously scratched his cheek.

"Good," Reno held a satisfied smile, "...Still, I think the better question is why I should trust you?"

"Huh?" He raised an eyebrow to the girl.

"I just tried to steal from you, and you're being all nice to me…Fishy doesn't cut it," Reno looked at him suspiciously.

It definitely was an understandable question as he was perplexed by it as well. There wasn't much of a straight, logical answer he could give to the girl as he walked beside her.
