188 - Lost, Found (3)
‘If only this wasn’t dirt,’ was Jai’s only regret as he ran. If it was concrete like in the tournament, he might be able to give himself a little boost with the impact.
Jai glanced sideways, but he saw something bright coming and immediately dodged to the side. However, Torfo managed to catch up to him and sent a kick to his side. Jai was pushed back, and then a fiery flame smacked his wounded side and burst in front of him. It messed with his sight a bit and he was attacked with multiple punches right afterwards.
Torfo sent another punch to Jai’s face before giving a spinning kick. His pinwheel kept crashing into Jai to help him stun the thunder elemer from counterattacking, blocking, or even dodging.
Jai grunted as he retreated. Having no chance to attack means retreat. Now, the tables have slightly turned, and now that Jai saw his opponent could use the pinwheel efficiently in close range, Jai had to change his strategy. But Jai needed to adapt. So he chargedRelated chapters
The Last Thunder 189 – “Rest, you”
Torfo had returned to the mausoleum with Jai. The guards were very surprised that they came back so fast looking as if a hurricane of fire had run by them. Nevertheless, they immediately called the emergency. The guards carefully took Jai to the infirmary, and he was treated immediately by the monks. Torfo held onto Jai’s blue scarf as he waited outside.There were quite many people walking back and forth in the main hallway of the Falcon Wing, where the dragon statue was. But here in the infirmary hall, it was quiet. The crowd in the main hall was only faintly heard, and the slight silence somehow led Torfo to retreat to his mind and think.Torfo sighed as he leaned against the wall. ‘This was my fault to begin with. Jai was right. I shouldn’t have judged him being the same as them.’Looking at the blue scarf in his hand, he was reminded of the time when he found it. It was lying around in the garden on the day he helped Jai to
The Last Thunder 190 - Peace?
Unfortunately, what happened next was what Torfo had not hoped but already expected. When he didn’t find anyone in the dorm, he went to the dining room. Because it was lunch time, he thought someone should be there to have lunch. Instead, he found everyone. Plus the children. And he didn’t feel like telling what he was about to tell Darrion in front of everyone, who cherished Jai’s presence so much. He was thinking how should he tell the windlet about his friend when he realized he had Jai’s scarf in his hands. An idea suddenly popped into his mind.He stood by the entrance of the dining room and stood up straight. Darrion was sitting facing the entrance’s direction, so the blonde would eventually see him.Everyone looked like they were having a good time eating, talking to each other, and none of them looked at the door for the first minute. So Torfo waved Jai’s scarf around the top of his head, trying to get their attention.Darrion was looking away from Lemi
The Last Thunder 191 - Getwell Present
Darrion’s laughter signaled the kids to come in unannounced. Even though Torfo told them that Jai was just waking up and needed all the rest he could get, the kids could not, not get excited. They ended up being too loud and the monk who came over to check on his patient had to kick them out. Jai was grateful that they visited him, though he was actually still semi-conscious and it’s questionable whether he know it was them and not just a simple daydream.Needless to say, it was quite a day.Everyone knew about the incident in the main hallway, that the participants had a fight with each other because of the injured one in the infirmary. But the information the people received was that they got into a fight with a fire elemental monster, and Jai was once again being reckless by baiting himself for the others to run away. But the other didn’t run away, and Jai ended up getting hurt instead. It was what the Minister had requested to the Abbott and the Abbess. It was do
The Last Thunder 192 – Acquaintances
A knock came to the door, but it didn’t manage to drag Torfo’s attention away from the book he was reading. The door then opened, revealing Naoki.“Ooh, hello, friend,” Naoki greeted.“Hm, come in,” Torfo answered, not even glancing away from the book.Naoki retreated a bit before he opened the door. “You got a visitor.”That finally got his attention to the door, where Jai was already waiting with a tray of food in his hands. The presence surprised Torfo and he got up immediately from his lying down position. “Jai?” the young soldier called.Jai smiled and waved his hand. “Can I come in?”Torfo looked at Naoki and then at him, before nodding. As Jai entered the room, Naoki retreated out and closed the door behind him. Jai put the tray on Torfo’s nightstand and sat on the bed across from him.A smile perched itself on Jai’s face as he greeted with a &l
The Last Thunder 193 - Gathering a bit
Jai left not long after, bringing the empty tray of food with him. Naoki was smiling so wide when he exited the room, with his own friend standing beside Naoki with indifferent expression. It might be just Jai, but to him, his friend was looking deep in thought. Jai somehow thought his friend was considering about Torfo, which was good. Making friends are always better.Naoki held Jai by his upper arm, a big smile perched on his face as he looked at Jai with those big chocolate orbs of his.Jai wondered why the guy would act like that, but he just smiled back. Naoki patted his shoulders and then entered the room, leaving Jai smiling like an idiot in the middle of the hallway.Jai turned to his friend. “What was that?”“Naoki’s just happy that someone got to be his friend’s friend,” Darrion answered.Jai raised one of his brows, feeling the intentional word play. “Okay?”Darrion narrowed his eye
The Last Thunder 194 - Assembly
Jai had known that they would never be permitted to go in the kitchen even if he goes with the kids. The kids were the red flags anyway. But they still ended up going to the kitchen with the kids. The guard was, unfortunately but as expected, still not letting them in and this drove the kids to plead cutely to the guard. It was a cute sight and Jai and Darrion liked that.Both of them didn’t even try to help at all, because both know the outcome already. But they had to give a salute to the kids. Finding an idea that seemed like a loophole was creative of them. However, still, it was not a good idea, in the sense that they were putting themselves as an excuse. Jai and Darrion both did not condone the action, and they had agreed on that on the way.‘The kids were nice, but they needed to be taught that they can’t use their position as an excuse,’ Jai thought.They did feel a bit bad when they saw t
The Last Thunder 195 - Meet Again
Ina giggled happily as she was floated gently above the ground by Teacher Sora. Hans was beside them, sitting calmly while sipping a glass of orange juice. The other kids were on the long table in the center of the room, where they were making some meatballs. While our two favorite protagonists were by the fryer in the left side of the room, with the Matron behind them making sure the oil wasn’t too hot. Jai chuckled as he turned over the meatballs he was frying. “It’s okay, Matron. I know what I’m doing.” The Matron looked at him with a smile. “Oh Jai, I just never saw a grown up boy cooking in the kitchen. It’s not that I don’t trust you or anything.” “Oh it’s fine! I know it’s uncommon, but relax, I really can fry these meatballs,” Jai tilted his head in a playful nod, earning a smile from the woman. “Alright then, I entrust the meatballs to you,” the Matron said. “How about you Darrion? Do you need any help?” The blonde grinned widely. “No
The Last Thunder 196 - Flaming Quill
“You shouldn’t be here again. This is not your place… Yet,” the soft voice faintly said.Jai whipped his head to his right, the same action he took that time, and he saw the same girl. A girl with long black hair and white dress.He could have opted to think it was someone different, but her face was familiarly similar to the girl from the cave last time. He couldn’t think otherwise.The girl held up something in her hand. “This is the item you’re looking for.”Jai took a second to look at her face before looking at the item in her hand. It was something red and gold, and quite big. Jai took a step closer to take a better look. His eyes traced the outline of the thing and he finally realized it was a feather. The feather darker red in color and the size was quite big, to the point that it covered the girl’s whole hand. There was an orb at the base of the feather that’s gold in color. The gold spre
