"Wh- what the fuck are you doing?!"
Lairs cried out in anger, reaching back with her hands to pull the hood back on to her head to cover her hair and face but it was already too late as the curtain of her long jet-black hair was already unleashed.
For someone who thought that she was abandoned simply because her hair had a different color than normally without knowing about the actual meaning of the curse she had on herself, Lais was sure taking great care of her hair as in terms of length it was easily reaching her calves.
"...where did you hide all of that under that hood...?"
Zombie wasn't particularly bothered by the cursing elf and asked tugging on her cloak and leaning down to have a better look at the piece of clothing.
"...fucking...! Can't...! Breathe...!"
...but since the cloak was still under the elf's neck, that action ended up resulting in poor Lairs getting unintentionally choked...
"Whoops..."
Zombie raised his brows and raised his hand once he noticed and sidestepped towards the red-haired girl glaring at him.
"...was it a bad idea to try and lighten the mood...?"
The blue undead leaned down and whispered in Cranberry's ear.
"Zombie, you aren't supposed to be a comedic relief in the second playthrough."
The red-haired girl whispered back, rolling her eyes.
"...aren't you baffled by those cloaks though? How can they hide so much – I mean look..."
Zombie smirked mischievously and grabbed Cranberry's cloak just to pull it open revealing the incredibly voluptuous curves of the red-haired girl's body.
"..."
"..."
Both Mason and Lairs ended up staring at a certain region of Cranberry's body completely smitten by the sheer size and allure, which brought any sort of a conversation to a halt.
"Oh, hey – at least we now have proof that they are siblings – look at those faces."
Zombie scoffed carefully wrapping Cranberry's body back in the cloak and hugging her from behind in both jealous and protective hug – even though the initiative to partially disrobe her came from him alone – while pointing at the two half-siblings.
"...alright, now you two are staring too much – this is a private property!"
Even after getting covered, the certain area of Cranberry's body was continuing to pull the eyes of both the brown-haired young man and the black-haired elf and ended up making the blue undead knight jealous enough to actually pick the red-haired girl up and walk with her to the armchair and sat down while putting her on his lap – facing him.
"...just so you know, I knew that's how you would react - this is how I feel most of the time when you fool around..."
Cranberry snorted mockingly into his ear before leaning into his embrace – the siblings ogling her weren't the only ones who forgot why they arrived at the room in the first place.
"Hey! You two! The show is over! Get back to the matter at hand – cursed sister quest! Mason Envy this is Lairs, she's Salak's daughter and is a full elf, so she might look your age but is in her thirties. Lairs, this is Mason Envy, he's the child that your mother had with the former head of the Envy family, Rambutan Envy. He is a half-elf and a current avatar of envy."
Zombie frowned and declared in a cold voice that worked like a bucket of cold water dumped on the heads of the listeners.
Of course, getting their heads out of the gutter wasn't the only reason that the blue undead began the information dumping - although it was his personal main one – the problem was that even though Mason and Lairs were in the same room and confronting each other per se – the system message showing the secret quest progression didn't show up.
And that meant only one thing – they were still missing something...
"Nice to meet you."
"Likewise."
The half-elf and the black-haired elf bowed their heads towards each other and exchanged polite greetings – which was already something almost unheard of from Lairs.
"Lairs is an adventurer from the party known as the Dandelions..."
"Ah! I heard of them! Aren't they the best adventurers in the kingdom?"
Zombie said and instantly got interrupted by the overexcited Mason.
"...Nah, you're fucking with me – we are not that good...!"
Which was definitely a nice ice-breaker because it made the black-haired elf fidget with a very happy expression blooming on her face despite her words.

She definitely had no immunity built up against getting sweet-talked, but on the other hand that definitely wasn't Mason's intention here – the green-eyed young man was genuinely impressed.
"Well, the thing is that might not be the case for much longer, since the curse sister quest activated because of Rambutan and Salak's death - which means that the curse Lairs has on her will start working its foul magic, and living will start dropping like flies – starting with the one's closet to her – which means the four other Dandelions. That's why we can't just sit around doing nothing."
"...!"
"!!!"
Zombie frowned, hugging Cranberry a bit tighter and declaring in a grim voice.
"...what happened to you wanting to actually lift the mood? You just brought it down to the ground and started digging..."
Cranberry snickered into the blue undead's ear.
"...I am a hypocrite, and since you own me, I own you too – and that's why I got jealous."
Zombie responded grumpily, feeling the very satisfied red-haired girl nuzzling against him.
"...that said – why the quest isn't progressing...? Do we have to actually make them fight or something...?"
He added furrowing his brows over the lack of any substantial progress.
"Haa... now you remember to ask me? Alright – I will handle it from now on."
The red-haired girl smirked and pulled away from him to turn away – but in the showcase of petty jealousy, the blue undead turned on the armchair so that he was showing his back to the half-siblings while Cranberry's fae was peeking at them from above his shoulder.
"...pffft...!"
Cranberry barely contained her laughter – at the end of the day, she knew that the blue undead was mostly acting overly protective and extremely jealous because he wanted to redeem himself after what he had done under the influence of Caramel's suggestion skill...
...although even while knowing that, Cranberry couldn't just stop herself from enjoying the situation...
"...ehem...! Haa. Mason, you have received the quest, and Laris, we have told you what the quest is about. Are you two okay with working together – Mason, that would require you take a little break from the official duties of the head of the Envy family, alright?"
The red-haired girl cleared her throat, breathed out, and asked after adding a few important details to everything that was already said by the blue undead knight beforehand.
"..."
Mason lowered his head and looked away, deep in thoughts.
"...?"
His silence made Zombie furrow his brows and glanced back as considering their conversation form before the girls have shown up, the green-eyed capture target seemed all up for ANY task that Zombie could come up with...
"My private library doesn't have any books on curses... I suppose we will have to check the archives first..."
Suddenly, Mason murmured under his breath with concern.
"The fuck?! So you are okay with helping us in the end?!
Lairs gasped in disbelief, unknowingly voicing Zombie's thoughts.
"Huh!? O-of course I agree!"
The brown-haired young straightened his back, staring at the others in confusion as if they were the odd ones for not figuring that out.
"For fuck's sake... yeah, there definitely is a blood relation between the two of us, fuck..."
The black-haired elven mage sighed and shook her head in disbelief before patting Mason's back with her open palm.
…at that moment...
