255 - In need of windlet
Last Updated:
2021-08-22 23:44:20Upon entering, Jai was welcomed with a warm greeting. Almost everyone greeted him, and it was quite nice to be getting this many attention with no further advances. Although, he was also flocked afterwards by three windlets. Two girls, and one young man, who came to aid him with whatever his business here was.
“Oh welcome, Jai! What brings you to the Windlet Headquarters today? Do you have an appointment with Sir Carrola?” one of the female windlets asked.
“Or you’re here for more extermination mission?” the male windlet asked in excitement.
“Or are you here to simply visit us?” the other female windlet asked sweetly. Her question brought several of her co-workers to laugh.
Jai smiled and politely denied all of them. “No to all of that. I’m here to find Darrion. Have you seen him?”
“Oh Darrion is sending lett

Jai laughed nervously at her reaction and gestured her to the seat next to him. “Um, would you mind sit down? Maybe we can talk and then I can explain? ”Greta sat next to him, across from the boys who were smiling at her sweetly like good boys they were trying to do.Jai looked at the waitress who was still standing beside their table and was watching silently and stoically. “Um, miss waitress, I’ll order one more drink for this young lady please. Put it on my bill.”The bowl cut boy, Mel, looked at the waitress too. “Oh, oh, Tissa! One plate of cookies for us! Put it on Brother Jai’s bill.”Jai frowned at him, but nodded at the waitress for confirmation. ‘I’m asking them to come here after all.’The waitress left after receiving the confirmation from Jai, and the group of four turned the attention to themselves. Jai and Greta talked to each other while the twins started to eat the

Greta looked at Jai with a small smile on her face. She still looked a bit sad, but the mention of Doctor Prime’s name made her brightened up slightly. “He’s alright?”Jai nodded with a smile. “He’s alright.”Greta sighed with a more contempt expression, glad that her friend is alright. Greta was about to say something, but the waitress came back with a tray of food. Greta waited after the waitress finished and walked away before continuing. “I missed him. But it’s still not safe for me to go there right now.”Jai lowered his hand and leaned back on the seat. “I’m sure you’ll get a chance to see him again. But um, Greta, that’s not the only thing I agree coming here for,” getting the matter back on track.Greta seemed to realize that she was leading the conversation astray and not giving him a chance to talk.

"So... What exactly do you want me to do?" Darrion asked as his friend walked beside him. The blonde had absolutely no idea what his friend was trying to do, but he accepted his friend following him for the moment.He was putting letters ino mailboxes when suddenly one of his friends, Nel, came up behind him and asked him to follow suit. He then found that Greta, the Oakshen family member that Darrion was planning to introduce to Jai, had already met the thunder boy and apparently both of them were planning something to get the rare ingredient for Miria's medicine.It was happening so fast that Darrion was still processing the situation when Greta already started explaining their plan. It resulted in Darrion getting lost in the middle of the explanation, and only agreed to do something for them because he thought it was important."Didn't we explain it to you back at the restaurant?" Jai raised one if his eyebrows and frowned the other.Darrion nodded a b

"Here you are, madam. We will send you a letter regarding the approval, so you don't have to come in daily to check it. Just wait for our notification," Greta said as she handed the older woman in front of her a sheet of paper.The woman read the paper she received and looked up at her, a slight confusion in her face. "Um, this paper... Should I bring it with me to get the approval letter later?"Greta nodded with a smile. "Yes. This is a receipt, so we would be able to look for your data easier when you come in here to claim the letter. Please do not lose it, mam.""Oh... Alright..." The woman nodded and folded the letter before putting it in her purse. "Thank you, dear."Greta smiled. "You are welcome. Is there anything else I can help you with?"The woman shook her head. "No, that will be all. I'll take my leave now. Thank you.""You're welcome, mam. Be careful on the way," Great waved at the woman and the woman left.Greta sighed

Taking care of Greta took around twenty minutes. Derra knew how to make her look simple but pretty. She was wearing a yellow floral dress that fitted well with her slim figure. Moreover, she was only slightly below average height which even made her look cute in the dress.Derra accompanied her downstairs to meet with their guests at the living room. Laughter could be heard echoing in the hall. The sound whom belonged to Greta’s father, surprised even Greta herself. Her father had not laughed like this for a few months now. He was barely home before the competition because he had to help with the preparation, helping out the kingdom. But even that still surprised Greta, because he did not laugh that loud that often.They entered the living room, which was a 4x4 meters room filled with couches, a coffee table with a small tea party set on it, and an aquarium. There were also decorations in the room like potted plants beside the couch, another potted plant beside t

Neither of the youngsters looked surprised at the answer, because they had already suspected it. But they wanted him to enact an exchange here, so they needed to act a little bit more.They faked a surprise expression at the same time. Then Jai swallowed his saliva to make it look like he was nervous before looking at James seriously. "I have not mention what kind of help I want to ask of you. Yet you denied it already. I hope it's not rude of me to question your reason of denying me?"James sighed and held his hands together. "There's a bit of a... History... Between me and Doctor Prime. I'm afraid that is a bit of a problem for me to consider helping you.""If I'm not wrong, he was your daughter's doctor. He was the one who cured your daughter. You know his capabilities," Jai said.James nodded. "He was, and I do. However, it’s due to that certain knowledge that I don't appreciate him as much as I was before. And it has put a... Strain, to our rel

Barun counted the stacks of crates in front of him before writing down the amount on the paper he was holding. Around him were many people going back and forth, moving crates and many other things besides crates. There were like, cages of small and average sized beasts, churns containing milk and other kinds of water, sacks of grains and fruits, and a bunch of other things.The old man was in the warehouse behind the castle, already finished submitting the harvest from Letush. Listing these crates was not supposedly his job, but the young man with this job had excused to relieve himself, so he was just helping him for a while. Thankfully, the worker was doing a great work in his job, so there were actually many things that had been listed there and Barun wasn’t having any difficulty filling which.He felt a tap on his shoulder and a voice called him. “Old Barun! I’m back!” the young man who had excused himself had arrived.Barun smi

Jai’s action had shocked the people in the room, and he knew this would happen. He ever saw this in animes and movies where the person doing this was already desperate for help. It was said that this pose shows weakness and humiliation in a man, and Jai could understand why it was deemed as such after experiencing it for himself.But if this is needed to change James’s heart, he would. Miria was an important person to him right now. Not because she’s Barun’s granddaughter, but she was his friend and a sister like figure to him by now. He might not see her that often, but she was always welcoming towards him and looking forward to his stories whenever he’s around. Jai would do anything to help her.However, due to the different culture in this world, the dogeza Jai was performing was not only considered as a pleading gesture but also respect in the most highest order. The exaggeration was necessary as it was a gesture only per

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
The Last Thunder 603 – Fiery
“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. But
