Riruru watched him, a hint of amusement dancing in her red eyes, which crinkled at the corners as he tossed a potato chip in his mouth with each treasure he took out.
She didn't get everything he conveyed, but she grasped the general meaning. At least, spending five days with Lorian hadn't been a complete waste. Now, she knew Skyler wasn't a creature but a human, unlike her.
Skyler sighed and slumped back onto the bed when nothing seemed to impress her.
"I need to find better treasures next time."
He muttered, more to himself than to her. A chuckle escaped him as the snake climbed onto his chest, her large eyes fixed on him.
"What? You don't like anything..."
He halted, and instinctively shut his eyes when a brilliant light flashed above him.
One that was brighter than the gold and multiple precious jewels in his room.
