“Madam Rissiya, nice to meet you again,” a short haired young man wearing a blue, scale themed scholar outfit, greeted the beautiful lady. He was wearing a Chinese style outfit, with three-four pants and dark pointed boots. A golden earring of an eagle adorned one of his ear, along with golden brooch the shape of a flower pinned on his left chest.

Rissiya smiled sweetly. “Carrola. You called me as I’ve requested of you. My, you dressed up quite nicely,” Rissiya patted his upper arm softly.

Carrola smiled and took her hand before kissing the back of it. “Of course. We are no longer in the battlefield.”

“Oh you. Battlefield is around us. It just needs a trigger. You know that,” Rissiya grinned, clutching his hand with hers. Her reply made him chuckle. Then he turned to the three young men around her.

“Greetings, gentlemen. I believe you remembered me,” Carrola smiled.

“Yes. We me

    An hour before…“Are you sure about this, sire?” a figure cloaked in black robe and pointy top asked. Its face was as black as the night save for the two shiny circles on the place of its eyes. The voice of this figure was unusual. It was like it was hovering over the border of feminine and masculine, indistinguishable and unknown.The sound of painful shrieks echoed from the tentacled bushes in front of them. Those mandrakes, as they were known as, were sitting on the ground and hugging their own leafy body with their tentacles, shivering as they tried to get away from the light balls that were heating them. But their effort was to no avail as the balls were surrounding them. They whimpered as the balls kept on flying extremely closer to them every few seconds. Intense heat could be felt radiating from the balls, warming up the plant monsters to the point of their natural body water almost dried up.Another cloaked figure watched as the light

    “How can Fire Drakes cross into our border? It’s not even that hot in here!” one of the two soldiers exclaimed as they rode their lizards across the plains. The lizards chirped as they ran past the grasses and rocks.“I don’t know. But we have to make sure it’s not bringing more of its friends here,” the other soldier said. “How come the border didn’t tell us anything about this?!”“Man, I’m sure we’re wondering the same thing as the sergeant. That’s why we must hurry to the border to find out about it!” the other soldier replied.“Do you think the sergeant and the others can handle those Fire Drakes?” his friend asked.The other raised his eyebrows in wonderment. “Aren’t those guests we have today are the winners of the competition held by the Minister? They are more than enough help to deal with those pests.”His friend smiled f

    With their joint air current , Darrion and Raka raised the drakes fifty feet into the air while Ruhan and Oki struggled to pull Mugen downward and away from the drakes. Being wind elemers, they must have the ability to bend the air to their will, so they were using their ability to the most right now. Lifting something, apparently, wasn’t something anybody can do. To Darrion, it may seem nothing as he had been doing to Jai several times. But it turned out to be not an easy feat. Because Raka and Ruhan had some kind of trouble keeping up with the windlets. The drakes had somehow realized that their tentacles were being pulled, so they tried to pull back and gave the wind elemers a hard time. However, fortunately for them, Carrola was there, and he was able to support them with more air pressure to keep the drakes afloat while also pulling Mugen down. When both Mugen and the drakes were already far enough from each other, Torfo became ablaze once again. Bara ran below

    Mugen was brought to the infirmary in the biggest windmill. The farmers immediately helped Carrola cleaned the boy up and assessed his condition. After a semi thorough assessment that could only be done with the Seeing Hands skill, Carrola declared that Mugen had a few broken and some cracked ribs, particularly on his stomach area. It was no wonder since he was held by, although not all, multiple tentacles at once. The pressure should be more devastating than that and Mugen might’ve been a dead man if not for the fact that the drakes were already weakened to such a state. Mugen was a lucky man. But he wasn’t lucky enough to avoid some of his ribs broken. At least, he’s still breathing and that’s what matters. “We have to get you to the hospital, Mugen,” Carrola said. His hands were on top of Mugen’s stomach, healing him with his magic. The farmers that had helped him had left the place to avoid crowding the injured man. “I can heal you, but it would take hours to men

    After Carrola had returned, they immediately set off to their next destination, the Erthas Wall. This wall is located before the wall border to the Earth Kingdom and north from the lake. If anyone could remember, this wall was the second place in the first race of the competition where they needed to run under the unending water pouring from jars that were purposefully placed above the wall. The military had removed the jars because the race was over, making Jai slightly disappointed because he was curious about them. The Erthas Wall had received their message regarding the sudden attack from Fire Drakes, and they had sent their help. However, the soldiers sent met the winners’ carriages halfway to the lake. Since they didn’t seem to be in trouble, the soldiers changed course and escorted them to the wall. Captain Flare and Major Kirly greeted them as soon as they arrived, and immediately, they started giving tour around the barrack. “That is very unf

    They were currently outside, above the Erthas Wall. The Major was explaining to them about what happened in their race and what tools that were used back in the race when something flew in the sky. The thing was constantly getting bigger as it got closer to the wall, so it could not escape being seen.“What is that?” Ugi asked, squinting his eyes to south to see something was flying towards them.The Captain, who walked behind him, looked towards the direction he was looking at. He smiled when he saw the thing coming towards them, because he knew what that was. He turned his head to the front and signalled the Major about it.“—rune from the Water Kingdom,” the Major paused when he saw the sign from the Captain, and also turned his head to the thing flying over. “It seems that your carriage has arrived.”Everyone turned to see the thing and found out that it was a flying ship. In fact, it was a very familiar flyin

    Contrary to some of their hope of meeting the king right after they arrived on the ground, they didn’t. But they did meet the Minister there waiting for them with the same calm smile he always had on him.“Oh my apologies for leaving so shortly, children. I have something I have to do,” the Minister excused.“Minister, did you hear about Mugen?” Ruhan asked.The Minister nodded. “I did. It was unfortunate. But we’ll discuss about it later. Let us go to the Greenhouse immediately, the King and some other guests had been waiting for you there.”Bunny carriages were already prepared outside of the gate for them and they immediately got on to go to their last destination.Before they aboard though, Jai saw a familiar person sitting on the driver’s seat of one of the carriages. So he approached the man to see if it’s really the person he was thinking he was. The driver noticed him approaching a

    Jai sat under a very shrouded tree. The sound of wind blowing and the shade the tree provided mad Jai more relaxed. His dark blue orbs that were once focused at the leaves on the tree now distracted to the boy who was crying to his grandfather.“Come on grandpa, let’s go home. Mother will be more than happy to know I caught this fish!” said the little boy. He raised a bucket made from bamboo that was filled with a single fish that was seemed as small as him.The old man beside him chuckled. “Careful, sonny. You’ll trip over your own feet,” the old man said. he was bringing a net that was filled with fishes over his shoulder. But the little boy was happily walking as if he wasn’t listening what his grandfather had said.“Grandpa…” Jai muttered. He then looked towards the sky, reminiscing his past with his grandfather.Once, Jai was very upset with his grandfather who always forced him to train hi

  • 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

    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,

    “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

    "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

    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.
