Chapter 138 --138
.Suddenly, the one to break the silence wasn’t Kyuu, but that little sparrow who had been sulking nearby the entire time.
"Creep!!" he screeched.
(WHAT!)
Kaya rolled her eyes and rubbed her temple, trying hard not to snap. "I’m a normal person, alright? I don’t know what your chirping means half the time. So could you please step aside and let someone else talk for once?"
She was trying her best to stay calm, but her patience was already wearing thin.
The sparrow, however, just kept staring at her like he’d seen a ghost.
And really, he was in shock.
Sure, there were people here and there who were "educated," but that was a word from the past. Long past. Back in the day, there had been schools, scrolls, records... but all of that had been wiped out long ago. Now, barely anyone knew how to read, let alone speak more than one language fluently. And here was this strange woman—fierce, blunt, and nothing like a soft-spoken "lady"—saying someone’s name with perfect pronunciation?
Cutie stepped forward, blinking. His expression was full of confused curiosity.
"Wait... do you... I mean, are you educated?" he asked, hesitantly.
Kaya stared at him, momentarily stunned.
What kind of question was that?
