Chapter 227 Interlude: The calamitous tea party

(Note: The following excerpt shows what happened on a tea party that occurred between the 50th and the 51st wave)
Astria: Who do you like more? My father or me?
Alex: Um, why are you asking that question? Obviously I like you more. Your father… he's not really a likeable person.
Astria: So you do like me. Ufufufu…
Alina: ….
Alex: Hey, you've been using wordplays on me again!
Astria: Wordplay? Did I really do that?
Alina: …
Alex: Yes, you just did!
Astria: Oh my, I must have not noticed it.
Alex: …
Alina: Quit sniffing on where you should not sniff. Only dogs do something like that.
Alex: !!!
[Asteria]: Oh! It's a fight between two women! This is gonna be good!
Astria: Ara ara, you seem to be angry at me. Do you have any problems with me?
Alina: Oh, I have no problems with you. I just could not help but notice that you seem to covet what is mine.
Astria: Oh, I have no intentions like that. I'm just friendly to everyone.
Alina: Friendly? As far as I can remember, you invited Alex for some 'private teatime' with you. Is that what you call 'being friendly'?
Nero: Hey, you were invited by Miss Astria? Why did you not tell that to me?
Alex: Shut up! Don't interrupt them!
Nero: …
Astria: I invited Alex for some private tea because I have to tell him some important things privately. Surely there's nothing wrong about that, right?
Alina: Are you really only planning on talking with him?
Astria: Yes, that is what I only plan to do.
Alina: (Activates All-Seeing Eyes) You're lying! I can see it!
Astria: Tsk.
Alex: Did you just click your tongue?
Astria: I can smell the odor of burnt fish coming out of your body. You must be really angry at me right now.
Alina: Angry? Hmph, that word is not enough to show how irritated I am right now!
[Asteria]: Fight fight fight!
Alex: Hey hey everyone! Let's all calm down now, shall we?
Astria: You know, since the first time I saw you, I already saw that you are angry at me. Why are you acting like that?
Alina: Hmph, if you could have just learned to keep your hands to yourself, then we will not proceed at this stage. You're acting like you are in heat. Please stop doing that. You're just embarrassing yourself more and more.
[Asteria]: Ohh!! That's a roast right there! 10/10!
Astria: …You went over the line here, older girl. That's not good…
Alina: O-older girl?
Astria: Do you want to fight against me or what? Because if you are only good at using your tongue, then you've got a lot of bad stuff coming to you!
[Asteria]: That's a decent roast attempt for a roast, but that's still not enough. 5/10.
Alina: …
Astria: Hmph, maybe at this point, it's only your tongue that had 'pleased' Alex. No wonder he looks so sad these days.
Alex: Uh oh.
[Asteria]: Damn, that's a nasty one!
Alina: YOU WANT TO FIGHT? LET'S DO IT NOW!
Astria: HEHEHE, COME AT ME THEN!
Alex: Guys, please stop!
Nero: They're girls, not guys, they won't listen to you.
Everyone: Would you please just shut up?
Nero: Ok…
[Asteria]: Fight, fight, fight!
Grand Symbolist: What the hell is happening here?
Nero: Miss Alina and Miss Asteria are trying to fight again! Miss Alina called your daughter as a woman in heat, while your daughter said that Miss Alina was only good at giving blo-
Grand Symbolist: OUT! EVERYONE OUT! GO BACK TO YOUR ROOMS! RIGHT NOW SHOULD BE YOUR REST TIME BEFORE THE NEXT WAVE ARRIVES! DON'T WASTE IN ON YOUR PETTY SQUABBLES! DO YOU ALL UNDERSTAND THAT?
Everyone: Yes we do….
Grand Symbolist: ASTRIA! ALINA! BOTH OF YOU SHOULD BE FRIENDS NOW! HOW HARD CAN THAT BE?
Astria: As long as Miss Alina apologizes to me first, then I shall reluctantly accept her as my friend.
Alina: As long as she begs for my forgiveness, then I shall give it to her.
Grand Symbolist: ….
Alex: ….
Nero: …
[Asteria]: Fight fight fight!
