The suns sets and the sky darken. The lights lit up in every corner of the park. A different stall can be seen all around the place. Children run around excited about the game they going to play. Couples hold hands together as they appreciate the romantic atmosphere. Each stall has flower decorations on it. Nope, most of the stalls have a flower theme on them. From food to games. It's all flowers.
It's the flower festival that is held only in springtime in this city.
Konoha looks very cheerful and energetic.
"Awesome this is different from daylight… Ren, let's have fun.”
“Yup… That’s the main reason I bring you here.”
I said and pushed Konoha’s cheeks with my index finger.
Her cheeks are so soft and mellow.
It's addicting
“Stop poking my cheeks already…”
Konoha and I decided to play in every stall we saw. First, we saw a shooter staff, where you use a cork gun to get the prize.
I'm used to shooting guns,
Konoha didn't know but I have one more reason for coming to this city. According to Kuro, the leader of the revolutionary group and my former workmates. One of the red robe terrorist captains is here hiding in this city. It's not just me who's going for their heads it includes the revolutionary group. I was a part of this group before, I decided to travel on my own because I want the general to suffer from my own hands. Red robe captain Phiton and Louise attacked the island city of Celest but they failed after a powerful noblewoman stopped them. One of the Scared powers is Scarlet Rose. A black cat arrived at the window. behind its back was a small bag where the message of the revolutionary group was delivered. This cat was called messenger cats. Despite going in my ways, Kuro still gives me information about the location of the red robe terrorist members. Using this flaming sword that bastard leaves that fiery night. I will surely burn him into ashes. <
“No, I will protect big sister Seele… Kumaryu! Kumano!” From her call, the bear's eye’s turned red. Their body exponentially grows twice their normal size. Their claws were bigger and sharper. “Raaaawwwllll!” “Grrooowwwlll!” Both bears growled pulling intimidation to Konoha. Those bears must me summon familiars. Two of them and these bars look at a high level. Konoha is in huge trouble. My body is still inside the effect of the paralyzing magic. “Konoha! Deactivate the magic!” I suggested. “No way… You're going to kill them.” “If you don’t kill them, they're going to kill you.” “Believe in me, Ren… Killing will never be the right answer. Any form of violence won’t solve anything.” Konoha said. She sprouted those words with a smile. She doesn’t get the situation she’s in. If she was not careful enough. This day might be the last day of her life. Konoha walked slowly toward
My name is Alicia Noel Archangel, One of the princesses in this wide continent of Arsland. I’m 15 years old and just got my first princess trial. What is a princess trial? Princess trials or price trials are the quests accomplished by the royal family. Each of the members who has a desire to take over the throne should participate in these trials. These trails consist of many different things like helping poor villages or defeating monsters. The list goes on. This is the tradition of the royal family for ages. Because our family believes that the one who should rule the kingdom must be the strongest. The highest count of trails clear will become the next in line in the throne. Big brother Julius and Big sister Yusael are at the top right now. Well, they are both monsters in magic and sword. Some of my siblings have already given up on the competition. It's an option but I can’t just give up. I wanted to become the next king of this kingdom. The reason
I’m still troubled by what happened earlier this morning. To release the stress on my mind. I get a quest from the town guild and do some monster hunting. I don’t want to rust my sword skills, I wanted to continue improving myself. When Seele made her move earlier, there is nothing I could do. If Konoha is not strong enough to counter her. She may be already done. Konoha's strength is unreal. How could she move so fats like that and she tamed a familiar? I can’t read Konoha’s presence properly, but it seems like she is not a bad person. She always retorted to peacefully taking things. Currently, my quest is about hunting forest wolves. According to the guild, there are lots of them lately. From what we saw the other night. I guess the rotten corpse draws the pack of wolves to come to this part of the forest. Carnivore hunts food with their senses. They always look forward to another feast instead of staying in one place. Normal
Luke’s mission was to kill a princess. Valor’s mission always comes from the higher-ups in the royal family. The only shady part was… Why the royal family is targeting its family members? “You must be wondering why?” I don’t put too much emotion on my face but he still can read my thought. Luke you’re terrifying. “It's true, Why the royal family will kill their own family? Are they that cold-blooded?” “I was in shock when I heard mt mission. I questioned the majesty and he answered me quickly. He said Alicia is not of royal blood. Alicia was a mistake from the king's mistress. The real father of Alicia is an ordinary farmer. It was a rumor all around the kingdom. She’s going to be killed for the shame she brings to the country. As far as I’m concerned it’s an easy job, Alicia doesn’t have the great magical ability or combat skills.” “If it's easy why you're the one who took the mission. You are the strongest in the family.” “You have s
“Sorry, we have to tie you down.” Emilco said while looking at the newly woken up blonde girl. The cafe is already closed and no one is in the cafe except Konoha and me. The blonde girl struggles herself and tried to untie the rope binding her both hands behind her back. Her body we’re also tied to a single chair and her mouth was covered by masking tape. She is mumbling words we can’t understand while looking at us with a sharp gaze. “We should at least talk to her.” Konoha said. “Big sister Konoha is right big sister Seele.” “I don’t know about it… We don’t know if she is a top-tier assassin deployed to kill us.” “There is no way she can move from her position right now.” Emilco argues with her big sister. Seele thinks about it and scratches her cheeks with her index finger. She turned her glance on Konoha. Konoha's peaceful mindset is currently influencing them. It's the same for me, I can und
We leave the cafe and go back to Inn. I recommended the same Inn where Konoha and I rented for tonight to Alicia. Alicia’s room is next to us. This is great because I can at least guard her. In case, Luke finds her location and is attacked at midnight. No, Luke will attack at midnight. Attacking at the night is likely for an assassin. Assassins take advantage of the night and darkness to get away from their victims. I get up from my bed and turned my head to Konoha whose sleeping soundly. Her face is childish and cute. It's a shame that I’m not able to marry her. I already decided to marry Tarte instead for the status and money. Konoha deserves a man better than me. Someone who has hands tainted with blood. Don’t deserve to live happily with a nice girl like her. I have my sword and equipment ready. I get out of the room silently. I make sure Konoha wasn’t woken up. I sneak outside and hide in the tree facing Alicia’s room. In this loc
The festival starts in the morning to evening that's the tradition in this town. Just waking up in the morning from the bed you can hear the noise from outside. I was currently in the Inn with the others because Emilco's house is destroyed last night. That does matter, as long as we are all alive and safe. I washed my face and saw Alicia who is started to be clingy to Konoha. "Konoha-same... What do you want?" "Fried chicken. I want fried chicken." Konohais being herself. That makes me feel happy. Still, I killed a person again, If Konohafinds out she might hate me again. I started to have anxiety after thinking that. Someone patted my shoulder. It's Seele and Emilco. "What happening to your face?" Asked Konoha. "Well, the furniture. Television and the expensive cups in the cafe are all destroyed. there nothing left to us." Said Emilco. "That horrible... Don't
