"What do we have here?"

Scaramouche's eyebrow quirked up, his voice initially sounding disinterested before the curiosity started bubbling within him. Seated inside the Shouki no Kami mech, he watched through the screen as your figure inched closer to him.

"Did you miss your Archon that much? I didn't think there would come a time when you would seek an audience with me first without me having to use our contract to blackmail you."

The mech's hand reached out, its fingers wrapping around you before it lifted you up towards the cockpit, the ground under you growing further and further. Opening the cockpit, he graced you with the chance to speak on the same level with the Archon himself—a sign of affection to his devotees, he presumed.
