“Future wife, you seem to have changed. You never used to eat mutton.”

“Ding! Settlement of magic value, the higher the favorability, the higher the magic value. Nero's current favorability is -98.”
Tink · Tink appears above Clola's bed to calculate magic values and report relationship stats.

“Mutt's 98? Did I kill his whole family?”
Clola · Clola reacts in disbelief after hearing Nero's dangerously low favorability score.
