Chapter 3 (extra): Meanwhile...


While Judgment and Sun were off in their own little world, the fact that they were still on the field where the battle had taken place was the last thing on their minds. This meant the other ten knights were able to blatantly stare at them. Like, really blatantly.

"Did they forget about us?" someone asked.

"They totally forgot about us," another answered.

Ruffling sounds could be heard. "This is even better than the time they tumbled out of the cabinet."

"What are you doing?"

The ruffling sounds stopped. "Looking for something to munch on, of course."

One of them muttered, "Someone give Judgment a shirt already."

Immediately, another exclaimed, "And ruin the view? No way!"

"But he just got healed! It won't do if he catches a cold," came a worried voice.

One of the knights, obviously not Stone, said, "Nonsense, you don't see Stone wearing a shirt over there, and he's fine."

"If they're going to keep hugging, I doubt Judgment will ever get cold!"

The moment those words were spoken, even those whose attention had wandered looked over at Judgment and Sun, who were still hugging. No truer words had ever been spoken. At first, they had been worried over Judgment's injuries, but after Sun had patched him up and the two of them began pouring their hearts out, they'd all relaxed but continued to stand guard, just in case. You never knew what monsters lurked in dark forests like this one after all. It simply wouldn't do for anything to interrupt such a great scene!

However, when ten minutes turned into twenty...

And twenty turned into thirty...

More than one stomach growled.

"Totally should have brought food."

"Someone needs to go hunting!"

Everyone looked around, at the sky, at the forest, at each other… Nobody wanted to volunteer and miss out on watching such an exceptional scene.

"Speaking of which, how long are they going to stay like that?"

"You know them. They managed to stay locked in a cabinet together for an entire day. This is nothing!"

"Hey Roland, move over! Your wings are blocking the view!"

Roland had been watching both Judgment and Sun in concern. When he heard those words, he gave one last look at the duo. Seeing that they were fine, he nodded at Judgment. Then, he very obediently moved out of the way, providing them an excellent view.

A much too excellent view.

Little did they know, those wings that had been blocking their view had also served to hide them from Judgment's view. Now that Roland had moved, there was nothing to keep the others from being discovered.

Dark eyes flicked up.

"Oh crap! Judgment is staring at us now! Abort! Abort!"

"Shhh, quiet down! Do you want to draw even more attention to us?!"

"Wow, that's quite some pledge Judgment is making."

"Captain Judgment~ Please SM me harder when you get stronger~~"

"Metal! You're totally ruining the mood here!"

"Both of you! You're being way too loud!"

"So what? He's already spotted us! Ahh and now he's glaring!"

"You idiot! Can't you see that Sun fell asleep?"

"Wait what? He's already asleep?"

"Well, with the battle and all those heals he cast, it's a wonder he even lasted this long!"

"Everybody shut up! Before Judgment kills us all with that death glare!"

Everyone obediently shut up. They quickly pretended like they were busy doing other things (but what was there to do in a forest, there was only one Roland to go around, and someone was already "busy" checking to see if he was alright after the strenuous battle). They were totally not watching the sappy pair of lovers before them. Now that they were quiet, Judgment ignored them, stood up, and carried a sleeping Sun to their tent.

Immediately, several whispers could be heard.

"Did you see that?"

"Judgment is totally carrying him bridal style!"

A collective chorus of "awww"s followed that last statement.

Judgment paused momentarily at the entrance to the tent. He shook his head but didn't turn around.

It was too bad the others couldn't see the small smile he had on his face.

Much, much later, when Judgment and Sun shockingly announced their marriage, nearly all of them would remember this moment and bet on Sun wearing the wedding dress.

We all know how that went.


The end... for real!
