Chapter 31: No One Else... Just You
[TAMIKO]
"I want a name, little love," Igor said as he studied Tamiko's arm.
For a moment there, Tamiko felt like his wrist was getting more attention than he ever thought possible. He had been used to getting such but then seeing someone be that worried and concerned over them was new and it was exciting there.
He was suddenly curious to know what would happen, if he really gave Igor a name.
Earlier, Sadako had also noticed the cuts on his wrists and called them Tamiko's hell, and he hadn't said that in a tone that was warm and comfy. Instead, Lord Sadako had used a tone that, just like Igor's, made Tamiko feel bad for Gabe.
He knew for a fact that the two would probably find out on their own and make Gabe's life a little too hard. But that was Tamiko's job. He was going to dedicate himself to it, and he wasn't even going to pretend.
"Easy there, Kosta. There isn't a name. I did this to myself, like I always do. You worry yourself for nothing. Anyway, tell me about your position in Reynard.
"They say you are the most feared warrior outside of Kawai, is it true?" Tamiko asked like he hadn't read literal books about Igor when he was growing up.
It was however different hearing it from the source's mouth and this was his chance to get that truth, right? Well, it could have been easy if Igor wasn't so determined to check Tamiko's body for any more scars.
