Maya's hand was subconsciously raised on its own before she tucked the locks of her hair behind her ear. She was taken aback by Eren's ninja way of complimenting her.
There was some part of Maya that was pleased with Eren's compliment. She could only blame Sansara Sage's perfection in artificial intelligence for her self-appeasement.
However, she quickly decided to retaliate against her feelings by criticizing Eren while looking him in the eyes.
"Hehe. Are you trying to flirt with me?
You are a hundred years too young to do something like that, Eren."
Eren's trick worked. Maya's tension was diffused by his comment. The butcher chuckled before replying.
"Heh! As I promised, I would provide you with a variety of life experiences. This is part of my commitment to you.
Besides, age is just a number."
'Yeah… and prison is just a room,' said Alphee in Eren's head right away.
Eren had it with Alephee at this point.
