“Leave this household!” Christela yelled whilst chasing after Mon’Ter.
Mon’Ter jumped on top of the table and moved farther away from the woman, still munching on a freshly roasted steak that was half inside his mouth and half outside.
“Hahahahaha! Oh gods! I can’t! I cannot!” Sereia held her belly whilst laughing like a lunatic, “This is way better than I expected!”
“Barbaric cretin! Get off the table right now!” Christela glared at Mon’Ter whilst shouting and trying to circle around him.
Mon’Ter slurped up the rest of the steak and quickly devoured it, “But if I do that, you’ll... Slap me again...”
Yes, she had slapped him.
“You’d better believe I’ll slap you again! The audacity of eating like that in front of me and my daughter! Have you no shame?!” Christela bellowed at the top of her lungs.
“Well, I don&rs
The day had passed and night had descended, Sereia was already sound asleep in her bed, with a large cylinder-shaped pillow tucked between her legs and drool running down the normal one she was hugging. Her blanket was off her body, but that didn’t seem to bother her deep blissful slumber at all.Mon’Ter still couldn’t get a proper read on Elyenora’s location, and that bothered him. He couldn’t sleep and had thus exited the room he was given, instead moving up to the rooftop of the mansion where it was quite calming.‘What could she be doing with that Lord Gaia fellow...’ he thought whilst gazing at the incomplete moon surrounded by stars, it was a pretty sight.“Can't sleep either, huh?” Samuel’s voice came from the side.“Sam...” Mon’Ter turned to look. the young knight was walking towards him from the roof side, he’d apparently decided to climb up the roof too.S
As the group made their way through the hallways, the awkwardness which Mon’Ter and Samuel felt didn’t wane in the slightest. Sereia was still walking with puffed up cheeks, quite annoyed with her father, and he didn’t give her the time of day to start an argument she so desired to make.Minutes slowly passed, until eventually they arrived in the room where Elyenora was staying with her uncle. She held his hand at his side and seemed to be in deep thought.“Princess Elyenora,” Randus called out from the doorway, “I do so hope you’ve found enough time to bid your farewells for the time being?”“I have, thank you for giving me some time,” Elyenora said whilst standing up from her chair. She turned towards the group with a resolute stare. Her eyes were sharp. “Shall we head out then?”“Ely... Have you eaten?” Mon’Ter asked worriedly. He wasn’t sure if she’d
The group of four stood on the white platform in the center of the room. They were right atop the magic circle which would send them off, all the way to the far side of Benulis. It was a three layered circle with four individual smaller circles on each side. One for each person.“Good luck. I wish you save travels, you four,” Randus said, his gaze stern.“No matter what it takes we’ll bring the sacred tree sap back,” Elyenora nodded at him, “If it means saving grandpa Leo and you, sir Gaia, then I’ll stake my life on it.”“Me too,” Samuel assured.“Me three then,” Sereia added, grinning as she stretched her arms, “I ain’t letting you croak at sixty, old man! You haven’t seen the best of your daughter yet!”“Ain’t you a funny one,” Randus smiled, suppressing a chuckle, “Go and make me proud then.”“Well, me four
Mon’Terran on all three of his limbs along the edges of Sereia’s range. He was just close enough so thatElyenora’ssilent wind rapier would be able to keep her light as a feather, and they would stay dry due to the racer girl’s own silent rain sword.“Woooooohooooo!!” Sereia shouted at the top of her lungs. By using the sword at her side, she was able to command that one little wave like a surfboard with how light her body was, not to mention that, she was doing tricks and hops all around hills and trees.Simply, she was having fun.“Hey! Sereia! You’re going to get out of my range, slow down!”Elyenorayelled towards her, but it didn’t seem like she could hear.She was going fast, too fast, but she wasn’t the only one capable of such feats.“Mon’Ter, can you get closer?”Elyenoralooked
Days of travel passed, but the colorful forest seemed to never end. The party had already enjoyed a few comforting nights in the forests of Evelune, known as the Everlasting Bloom. It is where the country gets its name from, whereas ‘Eve’ means ‘forever’ and ‘Lune’ means ‘blossom’.Nothing much had happened till now, not worth mentioning at least. The roasted pig had been served to Mon’Ter steaming as promised. Elyenora’s ring kept everything in a stasis, so it’s all basically prepared mere minutes before its serving at all times.Like promised, Mon’Ter did share his winning pork with the loser and even the knight who bickered with her, it saddened him greatly, but he lived with it. Much to Elyenora’s amusement.Now as they walk, cyan mists cover the majority of the forest which they roam. The mist gave a mystical feel to it all, almost like a fog of the unknown. The flora flourished,
After Elyenora had displayed her now indominable skill, one comparable even to Mon’Ter’s own prowess, the party was moving quite leisurely and at ease. Going through the Everlasting Blossom Forest through the path they were taking certainly was not the safest of routes. But considering their starting, point it was best and fastest.Having three lord class combatants and one noble class mage also brought about great flexibility. It was what gave the opportunity for this route in the first place, as no spirit could possibly threaten them. Most of the rouge ones were between the peak rankings of rare class and champion class, while a few were noble class, either low or mid rank. However, they didn’t get to encounter another Lord class spirit since the first instance of combat, which was great.Another week had passed, but the scenery never seemed to change. It was beautiful but by no means did it help the minds of the party. Sereia even felt like they we
The party of four was soon escorted by the guard through the main street of Almira. The roads were paved with marbles of different colors and the houses were still made from exotic wood. Some even appeared to be of stone, but in reality they were simply a different type of plant used in construction.Even all the way here, inside the city, you could still see the lustering lights which fell from the titanic tree above and its leaf crown. They kept it both bright at night and even now in the daylight when the shadows of above cover the land below. It was too colorful not to watch on in awe.Elves crossed the road, carrying baskets of fruit, pulling carts of valuables and or other miscellaneous items. Whether it be for their jobs or for their livelihood, or even just people going about aimlessly, doing their personal hobby or hanging out with friends, there were all kinds of people moving about.“This city is truly beautiful,” Elyenora couldn’t h
Minutes slowly passed and the party waited patiently for the king’s word. Would they be granted passage or be forced to leave? It would be quite difficult on them if it were the latter. Time is not a friend. And yet they sorely needed it.The gate of vines soon opened and the guard from earlier walked back outside, he motioned to the group to come closer and told them solemnly, “His majesty has agreed to see you. He has said that he was interested with what the young princess of Benulis has to say.”“That’s great, thank you for your help, sir knight,” she said with respect to the man, then walked forth to the wooden door.The two guards opened it for her, sitting at the sides in an orderly manner. They waited until all three of the princess’ companions followed after her too, before closing them inside.“Whoa,” Samuel started darting his gaze from place to place, “It’s even more colorful on
