"Hey, Jill. Could you explain to me why you keep calling the dungeon relocation apparatus inefficient?" I said Jill for clarification dreading that she might have done this on purpose.

"Oh, you caught that, did you? For some reason, people choose to ignore it considering it a typo. When it really isn't. I wonder why?" Jill said with a puzzled expression it appeared genuine but I knew better than to fall for it.

"You sly bitch, you did it on purpose. You wanted the dungeon relocation experiment to get more funding, that is why you leaked their premature results to all media outlets," Having grown skeptical of Jill it had become easier for me to see through her act.

"You have a very strong imagination. But those are some absurd claims, why do I want the dungeon relocation research to gain more funding and donations? To give them more funding the university will have to get the money somewhere, that would be by reducing the funding for other research. Why would I do that to myself? " Jill denied my theory calling it absurd. It sounds absurd from the way she puts it. But if you were to wait a minute and consider what Jill stood to gain then things made more sense.

All researchers have the natural fear of sharing credit or people stealing credit for their work, therefore, they never make the results of their experiment public unless they were sure that nobody can prove the contrary or even worse further improve upon what they claimed. So it was not surprising to see the researchers of the Dungeon Relocation research team were not willing to publish their results despite knowing the tremendous help and support it could bring for the advancement of their research at least not until they were certain the results they got would be consistent in further experimentation. Which could take a long time considering that every dungeon relocation experimentation required a lot of funding.

While the Dungeon relocation research team was trying their best to find more funding without making any claims Jill whose research was stuck finally saw some hope because of the breakthrough she stumbled upon while participating in the dungeon relocation experimentation had no qualms about leaking the results of the early-stage Dungeon Relocation to all the media outlets. Now Jill's research was towed to the dungeon relocation research, only if it were to speed up would her research speed up as result. So she did not hesitate to do the devil's work.

"Absurd, huh? Tell me if I sound absurd when I say that you did this to speed the dungeon relocation research up so that you can pursue whatever breakthrough you stumbled upon while participating in the dungeon relocation experimentation more frequently. Isn't that the actual reason why you are here, Dr. Jill?" I debunked Jill's innocent act. This woman was a shark, she can smell blood in the water from miles away. One tiny wound and she will come right for you. She almost had me with her high IQ low Eq routine.

"Yes, high school boy Wyatt, you caught me. I confess I have been a very very naughty gal. How do you plan on punishing me?" Jill spoke in an exaggerated tone and for the last part, it sounded a bit steamy. I bet that was intentional.

"Jeez! I was just calling your lie. What's gotten into you?" The part about Jill leaking the dungeon relocation experiments report to the media outlet had nothing to do with the explanation of her research down here. So she did not break the bounds of the oath she took earlier by lying about the reason why she did it.

"You couldn't have if had it not been for me purposefully leaving the hints. Yet, it took you so long," In a way, what Jill said was right, I did catch her lying based on what she said to me but by now I knew better than to fall for classic play.

"That was you contradicting yourself, not you leaving hints for me to catch your lie. You were hoping I would overlook it thinking that since you are under oath you cannot lie. But this has nothing to do with what you took oath for which means you can lie about it all you want. The question is why are we wasting time on this? I thought you were just talkative but now I think otherwise," I smug smile formed unconsciously formed on my face having called out Jill for what she was doing.

"Wipe that smug smile off your face, as if you are any better. I saw you drool while leering at my cleavage," Jill revealed that she knew about me staring that her obscene body.

"Yes, I was leering at your cleavage and profane body. Guilt as charged, I would continue to if only you had not opened your damned mouth," I confessed, Jill had perfect pair of racks and I was not ashamed of letting my sight linger on them more than they should have. I would be ashamed if they didn't because that could only mean there was something wrong down there or I was batting for the other team.

"Pervert," Jill cussed but the blush on her cheeks yelled otherwise.

"Call me what you will, but at least I am being honest," I yelled, pulling a page right from Jill's playbook. I was playing a genius with perverted tendencies like Jill who played a highbrow with little touch with commonsense. All this just to make your opponent's prescription of you feel that you were harmless. But there was only one problem, I did not know if it was working or if she was using the same on me.

"Idiot," Jill uttered but the blush on her cheeks had grown intense and had reached her ears, they too glowed red.

"If not for me being restrained right now, I would have kissed you."
