Both Vivian and Matteo were dumbfounded.
What's going on? Why is she ignoring me? When Vivian turned toward Matteo, she saw him shrug his shoulders in response.
"Perhaps she can't hear us?" Matteo speculated.
Glancing at Lucy, who was not far away, Vivian figured it was impossible that she did not hear her.
Finally, she took Matteo's advice and ran up to Lucy to stop her.
"Lucy" Vivian called again in a crisp and delighted voice.
At that moment, Lucy was dressed up as a girl from the tribe.
Instead of demonstrating any familiarity, she jumped back in fright.
"W-Who are you? How do you know my name?"
Hearing her question, Vivian was stunned.
When Matteo came up to them and saw what happened, he scanned Lucy from head to toe and smiled.
"Come on, it has only been two days.Why are you pretending not to know us?"
"What do you mean...pretending? I don't know both of you at all.We should leave now and ignore them.The feast is about to start."
Having barely said a word, Lucy wanted to lead the girls behind her away.
However, when Matteo noticed how desperate Vivian was, the smile on his face was gradually replaced by a grim expression.
"How dare you play dumb just after two days? Lucy, let me warn you.Before we run out of patience, you better tell us where Kurt is.Or else, once the matter escalates, no one will be able to save you."
At that moment, no one had expected the most jovial out of the triplets to emanate a terrifying aura in place of his usual cheerfulness.
After all, something terrible would have to happen to cause a person who loved to smile to suddenly stop smiling.
Taken aback, Lucy finally stopped in her tracks.
"I...really don't know either of you.Also, who's Kurt? Just who the hell are you?" She maintained her stand, even though her eyes began to redden after the scare Matteo gave her.
Matteo and Vivian were stumped again.
Finally, unable to control herself, Vivian caught up with Lucy, tears welling up in her eyes.
