"I think the one who's picking a fight with me is Crimson and not Tteokbokki," she said while glaring at the red egg. "My Tteokbokki is a good boy. Only Crimson will reject me as his boss."

"That's not the issue here," William said, then he turned to South. "Where's Manu? He's supposed to be here until the egg hatches. Did he run away again to sleep?"
