221 - Miria meets Darisha (2)
Last Updated:
2021-07-12 22:06:55Usha looked at his female human and was a bit confused by how red she had become. She was only kissed by another female human after all. He kissed her many times on her hands and both her cheeks, but she didn’t respond like that. He narrowed his eyes as he could feel a small spark of jealousy coming from deep inside him.
The minutes passed by with Barun and Miria talking to each other about Darisha, while Usha focused his attention towards the kitchen where the fat human, the twin boys, and the female human were currently cooking something. Delicious aroma permeated the air and Usha couldn’t help but feel his mouth watery from the smell. He didn’t eat human food that often, but human food tastes delicious to his tongue. Just, they’re probably too… Something they call salty, and sweet, but at least Usha could stand leftover fried potato sticks back then.
Ten to fifteen minutes later, their order was ready and Da

Their time in Darrion’s house was fun. Darisha seemed to like Miria a lot and wasn’t hiding it at all. The woman even told them that how she would love to take Miria out on a walk together, just the two of them. Miria was delighted, but she had to refuse because she got tired easily and their walk would be ruin.Darisha told her that it would be just fine since it’s just a walk, so there’s no rush. Miria was still uncomfortable with the thought, but her face showed that she would want that too.Darrion had to leave because he had work to do, but he promised Jai he would tell Carrola and then inform Jai. The three villagers of Letush stayed for lunch at Darisha’s house before then leaving. Darisha made the two men promise to bring Miria for a visit every week, and as usual, she never accepted a no. Also, since they were stuck with Darisha until almost three PM, they had to cancel their shopping plan which no one regrette

He made his way south from Atla Square. The second person he’s consulting this time was Doctor Tate, a vein doctor. Jai asked Carrola what a vein doctor is and the scholar told him that the doctor deals with the muscles in the head. Jai guessed he must be some kind of neurologist because it involved people’s head and neurons are similar to vein. That made Jai wondered if the term nerve system had been found here.Jai adjusted his scarf to cover his head like a veil before crossing the East Main Road and walked to the southeastern part of the kingdom. He remembered this was near the Southern Market where they went to in the second race. He checked again the address on the paper and it said that the doctor’s place is near the market. Since Jai wasn’t familiar with the kingdom yet, he knew he’s vulnerable and more prone to get lost, so he asked some people on the way that didn’t look like hooligans or anything similar. Some house

Because the sun was still high in the sky, Jai chose to visit Doctor Prime right away. But since his grumbling stomach asked for food, he considered buying snacks in the market to eat on the way. He decided to go to the food stand he came to before. He considered that as an exchange for the direction the owner had given him.“Here you go, sonny!” the owner said after handing Jai the meat bread and fried potato he ordered.“Thank you, sir,” Jai replied, receiving the food.The meat bread was wrapped in a brown paper and was warm, while the fried potato was put in a container made from a thicker paper. The meat bread was almost similar to a burger, but the meat inside was cooked with spices and seasonings that made it smell so good, and the bread was softer. Jai’s mouth became watery by how good the meat bread smelled like, and he decided to just eat the foods right then and there. When he was done, he bought a drink for take away and

Jai had this small light of hope in his heart when he left Doctor Prime’s office. The way the doctor told him about how he’s going to examine Miria first somehow indicates that this doctor is serious about his job. To him, being a doctor means saving life of others, and how they treat those lives who need their help determines how serious they are in the expertise.Of course, there are also wicked doctors like in the movies or real life experiences, and that also concerned Jai for a moment. Like, what if this is a scam? Or what if this doctor turned out to be a psychopath and Jai indirectly helping him get his next victim? But Jai erased those thoughts aside. From their interaction today, Jai assumed that Doctor Prime is legit.‘But the real question is, how can I coax Miria to have another checkup with a different doctor?’ Jai thought as he jogged around the village.He had woken up early, right

Miria hugged Usha as they entered the kingdom, with Jai right beside her. Barun was in front with Rugard and Wen, pulling the wagon filled with goods. They separated almost immediately because the warehouse and Doctor Prime’s office are in opposite sections of the kingdom. Miria waved her hand to her grandfather before she went with Jai.Barun waved back at her and saw her off before going back to Rugard and Wen to submit their goods for the day. He had no qualms that Miria is going with Jai. The first time they went together, Jai almost killed someone because they were harassing his precious granddaughter. Knowing that Miria’s safe in good hands, he could avert his attention to their shipment.‘I hope that doctor can tell something is going on with Miria. Hm… I know I shouldn’t be getting my hopes up, but, just it will be okay for just a little bit, right…?’ –was what inside the old man&rsqu

“Why don’t we take a back trip first, alright? Let’s remember back to when you were young, Miria. You were suffering from cold and your grandfather gave you a medicine made from Glaucus flower, which is commonly used to treat cold. Isn’t that right?” Doctor Prime asked.Miria nodded. “Yes.”“And then you started having these strange symptoms after you consumed the medicine. You started feeling cold all of a sudden, mild headache, tired easily…” the doctor mentioned.Miria seemed to realize as something seemed to dawn on her. “Could it be the medicine…”Doctor Prime smiled solemnly, tilting his head a bit. “Not the medicine, but the ingredients to make it.”Jai widened his eyes a bit. “The flower.”Doctor Prime smiled and nodded. “The Glaucus flower.

Jai and Miria had lunch at the small kiosk and then spent their time after buying groceries in the South Market before going straight home. On their way home, Jai was quite a bit distracted by how he could convince Barun to give his consent. Well, the old man was cooperative about the checkup, but Jai wouldn’t be as sure with the expensive treatment. And unfortunately, since Jai didn’t manage to fish the price from the doctor, he also wouldn’t have the answer should Barun asked him about it later.‘This is actually a bit shady, but if this is passed, there might be no other chances… Maybe I should ask Darrion for help, digging information about this doctor to see if he’s true…’ Jai thought as he walked, ignoring a small kitten jumping up to his shoulder and up his head.Usha had to scratch him a bit on the head before they entered the forest, just to get his attention straight. This was the k

The next day, Jai departed early because he wanted to give Darrion a visit and also ask for a favor, yet, again. He felt that this blonde would get over him by that point, but he hoped not, because he would really need his help on this one.“JAIII!! Oh man! I missed you!” Darrion exclaimed excitedly before hugging him right there in front of his house.‘So he’s not over me yet,’ Jai thought, patting the blonde on the back while chuckling. “It’s always nice meeting you, Darrion.”“Aww~ You don’t miss me?” Darrion faked a pout.Jai chuckled and hummed. “Hmm, naah, I’ll say no just to tick you.”“You dog,” Darrion grinned. “You’re so early, what makes you come here at this hour? I was just about to leave for work.”Jai grimaced a bit. “Oh sorry

The Last Thunder 611 – Baby Shower (2)
Jai felt something wrapped around his stomach from behind. He immediately looked down to his waist, spotting two smaller sized hands coiling on his waist.‘A kid, obviously. But who is it?’ Jai wondered. This was a baby shower event, so he wasn’t feeling weird if children attend too. The question is, who is this kid?He tried to turn around to look at the hugger, but the kid was hugging him tight. It wouldn’t be hard to push it, but he was reluctant because it’s a kid. He knew there’s nothing he could do but ask.“Oh? Hello? Is there anything you need?” Jai asked with a friendly tone.He could hear giggles, but the kid didn’t answer his question.“Oh are we playing guess?” Jai asked.More giggles.“It’s a boy.” Someone whispered from his left side. A familiar voice yet he could not name.“Hey!” The boy protested.But from that tone alone, Jai could already figure out who it is. So he said. “Hello, Ruta-kun.”The kid let him go and Jai could finally turn around. True, it was Ruta. The
The Last Thunder 610 – Baby shower (1)
On the day when the baby shower was held, Jai arrived at the place with Baji.The venue is in a mansion in the North Town. Jai hadn’t been in that certain neighbourhood, but he finally understood that the North Town is the place for the riches, and the neighbourhood they were in is probably among the richest. The mansion building is tall, and the garden is so wide. There’s a medium sized pond with two gazebos on the side, and then there’s also a small orchard on the right side of the mansion.Baji leaned in to whisper something. “The party is in the back garden. And keep your mouth shut, please. You’re a famous guy and I don’t want you looking stupid.” Then he leaned back.Jai immediately closed his unconsciously parted lips and recited the plan. He couldn’t, of course, confront an important figure of a clan in a crowded venue. So Baji and Gilbert had made a plan to help him talk alone with Fuuji Fu in the venue. He just have to make sure he could deal with the ‘fans’, though he hoped
The Last Thunder 609 – Invitation
It isn’t a doubt that Cynthia was reluctant to share that information with Harris because Jai was there. So Jai proposed to the brunette to re-visit the place later in the day to ask about it.Baji was there when they returned, and Jai immediately told him about the findings he got also to consult about the Fiery Lotus.Baji crossed his arms on his chest and nodded in acknowledgement. “It’s fortunate that a promising lead is finally here. We’re sorry for the late initiative from our part. We should’ve worked harder.”He didn’t think that he would receive an apology from Baji. But it showed that the man is a responsible person. Jai shook his head. “It’s alright. From the start, it was already a scavenger hunt. But do you know anything about either of those?”Baji fixed his seating before he explained. “Well about the Chief of Fuuji, he’s a strict person on males. He’s nice to females, and he’s really into babies. There’s only one male person he had shown his friendly side to in public,
The Last Thunder 608 – Not on the first one
“So uhh, this person whom you mentioned before with Tsubasa is a very important person. And you want to ask him about Alex?” Darrion asked when they were in the carriage, heading back.Jai narrowed his eyes. “Why aren’t you being straightforward?”“I’m a bit tired from today. There are so many deliveries like yesterday. But ahh… I’m more tired in trying to understand what they say.” Darrion said with nervous smile.Jai forgot that his friend is not adept in Shouha language, it must be hard to work without understanding what anyone is saying.“Sorry.” Jai apologized.Darrion nodded. “It’s fine. Let’s just stick to no name for now, if possible. I… Can’t really erect a barrier right now.”“Sure.” Jai nodded. “The… Family, you know, told me about him. Saying that he is the first person we can ask about Alex. But he has a very high standing, as you’ve listened to me and the father talked about him, so it won’t be easy to talk to him.”“I see. So that’s why you go to them. They can be consi
The Last Thunder 607 – A Favor
"Sorry if it's too much of me to ask." Jai said."Oh no, no. It's fine. But my mother is not at home though, is that alright?" Yuta asked as he turned to Jai and Darrion behind him."It's alright. It's very sudden after all." Jai said."Alright then. Would tea be alright?" Yuta asked."Yes. It's fine. Thank you." Jai answered.Fu Fuuji is the head chief of one of the notorious Ten Guardian Clans, the Fuuji clan. After leaving the Komatsu’s residence, he was thinking about how to get in touch with this person. And the Akamine clan is the first thing that came into Jai’s mind.While they don’t really owe him a favor, this family is the closest connection that he has to the Fuuji clan, because they’re also one of the Ten Guardian Clans.Also, he knew that it’s not guaranteed that he would get an audience with Fu Fuuji through the Akamine. There’s a possibility that they are enemies with each other. But he would at least try to ask. So here they were, in the Akamine clan’s residence.Yuta
The Last Thunder 606 – Arrangement
Returning to the present.“Little Sparks. Fiery Lotus. What the hell are those?” Jai asked as they left the compound.“Quiet down. You’re gonna get us killed for that.” Claude remindedJai turned around and talked in slight whisper. “If it’s associated with the Queen, that means it’s very private. In the North Town, in a community place like thing. It doesn’t ring any bells from the previous search. Do you know anything about it?”He saw an empty horse mount coming in their direction and waved it.The mount stopped in front of them and they immediately climbed in the carriage. “Southeast Windlet Post Office.” He told the horse mount driver.Weaving the air barrier thicker, Claude replied. “I don’t. I’m a hunter, not a mercenary. How do you suppose I know these things?”Jai smiled shortly with a shrug. “Maybe? Ah… But this is a major progress in the case. At least we know he’s not dead, and it will take more effort to rescue him now.” Jai smiled.Claude stared at Jai suspiciously. “Why

They were led to a corridor which have several doors across from each other. Alex immediately knew they are resting rooms, because he could see a bed from one of the opened doors.One of the committees, the previous guy who shot the Cloud Viewing Rune in the ceremony, pulled his hood down, showing his blonde hair. Then he turned around while the other committees went past him, leaving him to deal with the new freshmen batch.“Good morning. My name is Liam. I am one of the guild members and I am one of the supervisors of the freshmen. Well, not really supervisor, but I’m the one they put in charge to look after you when the super seniors are out. Like right now. Oh and umm, I’m not alone. I have my friends with me to look after you. So please don’t do anything rash, because we outpower you by a lot. And we prefer not to hit you, because you’re a potential junior. Please be nice to each other, okay?”Alex didn’t really pay attention. He stopped listening when he uttered the fourth sente
The Last Thunder 604 – The ceremony
That morning on the day when Jai went to the Komatsu’s house, Alex had already settled in ‘the place’.He wasn’t familiar with the kingdom, as such, he didn’t know where he was taken to.And since he was late, he was grouped with those who were also late. Many eyes stared at him when he entered the room—it was an average room with beds—reserved only for those who arrived late.Apparently, those who arrived first had attended the ceremony and the first phase—and those who were late had to attend on their own. But they would be gathered together after that, and he would be able to meet his roommate. That was what Master Fu said yesterday when he dropped him off. But the old man wasn’t lying.He went through a sleepless night—because there were many others here that he didn’t know and he wasn’t keen on getting surprise attacked in the middle of his sleep. But the night went by uneventfully, fortunately.He and the others were given a tray of scone and tea to start the day. He didn’t eat

“Don’t. Test. Me.”Jai’s eyes glowed brighter for a second as he emphasized the last words.The civilians, of course flinched at his threat. All of them knew him as a humble and righteous young man. Always smiling and looked very kind. They never knew this side of him. That’s why they were very surprised. The Kizuato group wasn’t included though, they were there exactly to prevent Jai doing what he planned to do.Akane, who had have enough of her parents’ plan, stood up.“Akane-chan!” Rio tried to stop her, but she went anyway and spoke.But instead of retaliating at the guest in their house like the rest of her family, she was looking at her mother instead. “Just tell him, mother!”Rio frowned deep at her. “What are you saying, Akane?”Akane gritted her teeth. “Just tell him!! If you tell him, no one will be hurt!”Rio shut her mouth and swallowed, but she didn’t say anything.Akane looked at her mother with bewildered expression. “If you don’t, then I will.” She turned to Jai.
