On the other hand, Steve and the others went on with their conversation."You think so??? Well, I must say I could also notice as much as that. Have you noticed it as well? As soon as Professor De Belen came in, Madaam Xing invited her inside a close room right away."Jace butted in."Hmm... What do you think they talked about in private???"Nike decided to join the conversation."That, I'm not sure about. But one thing is for certain. Professor De Belen used her class as a pretext to visit Everything Emporium because she doesn't want anyone to suspect her once she met with Madam Xing."Steve claimed with certainty."What are you guys whispering at each other over there???"Niccoli asked his friends when they finally neared them.He noticed that Jace and the others seemed to be having a secret conversation among themselves without him and Audrey."Oh, we were just talking about our speculation regarding Professor De Belen's real intention in bringing us all over here. Don't you find i
[Little lass, get me that RAINBOW PARFAIT as well...]Nero ordered when he saw a giant-like ice cream dessert that came with seven flavors in one serving.The aforementioned dessert consists of seven colors of the rainbow and so that name suggests. At the same time, for every color corresponds and unique flavor of its own. Red for the cherry flavor; orange for tangerine; yellow for mango; green for the matcha ice cream; blue for blueberry; indigo for the black raspberry ice cream flavor; and last was the violet for the purple yam ice cream (ube)"Err??? Are you sure we can eat that whole? That ice cream was way too big! Maybe we can choose something else..."Audrey suggested, but Nero only snorted at her."MEOW"[Gosh, what are you even thinking of??? Of course, it's not for us. It's for Monami! She loves sweets!]"Ohhhhh?????"So her cat happened to ask her to buy a big set of parfait just to impress his lover.Great just great!But as a supportive master to her pet's love life, Aud
"Hmm... Well, if Andrew and Niccoli got the same case, then I think I could understand it now."Steve said before he continued."Well, as we all know, both Andrew and Niccoli own a form changing beast, right? Meaning, their spiritual beast were both from the same race. We should also not forget the fact that form changing beasts were so rare. So rare to the point that many thought that they only exist in legends!In fact, it was only when we saw their pets transforming from being a cat into their beast form did we realized that form changing beasts are actually for real.""Hmmm... I see, so you mean to say that the possible reason why their beast can actually talk to them was that because they signed a contract with a rare kind of beast, to be specific a form changing one??"Jace asked to confirm if he got Steve's explanation right."Exactly!" "Niccoli, where is Monami right now, by the way? Can you bring her out???"According to Nero, the la
On the flip side, it was clear for all eyes to see that both the cats badly wanted to snuggle close at one another. However, due to the awkward difference between their heights, they could not do as much as that.From the distance, Monami look no different from a mama cat nursing her own litter due to her size comparison with Nero the moment. So after settling with a just a high five and a short staring contest with a rainbow parfait in between them Nero finally went back to Audrey's side.Audrey could definitely tell that her cat was undeniably feeling down and in fact it shows by how he carried himself back to where his master was. Nero, at this point was akin to a soldier marching to his own death with his lowered head and tail that has been tucked behind his hind legs."Your back already???""MEOW"[Ohh what else would you think I should we do then, little lass?? Should I just keep on craning my next upwards looking up at her?? It is' hurting my ego, you know.]"Ohhh... So I guess
"It's not as simple as that. Anything concerning the Jar of Misfortune is complicated and believ me when I say you would not like to mess around with it; or better yet, what we should do is to never dream about ever having contact with one. Just as it name says, misfortune tends to lurk around who dare to cheat their way out of what was predicted by that forsaken jar. Whatever they saw inside the Jar of Misfortune was already bound to happen. Meaning, regardless if we tell Professor Sonny about it or not, it will still happen in the end. Now, let us say Andrew and Niccoli really give Professor Sonny a heads up of what was about to happen on the chalice. How could we be so sure that their action would not actually aggravate the situation? How can we be certain that our decision of interfering won't actually be the one to cause the misfortune in the first place???"Everyone fell silent after hearing their friend's explanation because even without him pointing that out, they all knew tha
"Arguing will not get us anywhere. So why don't we just settle this once and for all by voting? I say, majority wins? How about that?"Allan suggested out of the blue to which Steve seconded almost immediately."Sounds like a great lan to me. Nice one, Allan. Alright, who wants to vote against getting involve with Professor Sonny's misfortune? Raise your right hand."Steve did not forget to commend Allan's wittiness, that was rare. Then right after that, he declared loudly and raised his right hand."Me...""So do I"Of course, Nike and Audrey were obviously the ones who voted in favor of Steve's side."Now, raised your right hand if you think we necessarily need to get ourselves involved at someone else's problem."Steve declared while indicating in a roundabout manner that voting for the opposing side was nothing but an act of being nosy He even furtively glanced over at his friend's direction to see their reaction."It's not about getting nosy, It was more about preventing someth
"Can't we just go and tell him straight and get on with it??? I mean, why do we even need to have all this sort of preparations and planning just to tell him??? It was not as if we are going there to visit him for no good reason? We will go and meet him with a good intention in our hearts. We are letting him know about his upcoming misfortune beforehand. He should even be thankful for us, right? What now, can he not even spare us a few minutes of his time, in exchange for that?!"Jace insinuated afterward when he noticed that the others were hesitating to move forward and as result dragging the matter far longer. Judging from the tone of his voice, everyone could already tell that their friend was starting to get annoyed. So it was a good thing that Nike was quick to sense it and acted fast. Before theother party's temper could even get the better of him, Nike already waded into the conversation."Well yeah, we could do that. We could ask for Professor De Belen's help to have us cov
"Come on, Allan. Don't be silly. Not because there is a man and cat involved, it automatically means it will be about our friend right away. After all, they are not the only one who wons a cat in this campus, are they? Stop making everything seems it was all about our group."Jace pointed out to his friend when he heard his deduction. He could not help but find it absurd as such he did not hesitate to speak his mind."Well, yeah.. ahhhmmm. You must be right. But, I am just saying though. Why are you even more affected than them???""TSK!""Anyways, I also think that we need Professor De Belen's help. Let's just leave out the part about the silhouette of a man and cat once we told her about what you two saw in the water."Before their attention could even continue to drift farther away, Steve already decided to cut his friends nonsense bickerings and talked about their next course of action.With that being said, the group change route heading first to the Teacher Hall to meet Profess
