394 - Buying Newspapers
Jai and Darrion agreed to go to the small restaurant as suggested by Hinako.
Darrion didn’t really know about this restaurant, which means that it was really a small restaurant. It was true that he had researched on some places in the Fire Kingdom, but certainly, not all of them. But it didn’t matter as they were also trying to widen their area of search.
They went to the area where the Red Manor Hotel was because they were trying to get to the park first. The road here was a Y crossing. From their position to the south was the entrance gate, or the South Gate as Darrion corrected. The other road, that was in front of the famous hotel was the one they had not yet ventured into, so now they’re going there.
They got to see the front gate of the hotel from up close. They could also peek into the gate and see the actual front of the building, and it was, well…
Jai wouldn’t say it was extravagant, as the front looked like that of

While Jai was a little bit concerned about Haku, he respected the boy’s decision. The boy wanted to settle his problem by himself, which Jai considered courageous. Although yesterday was rough, and the boy ended up being beaten anyway, which was why he was concerned in the first place.He couldn’t believe a little boy like him would that kind of personality, courageous and responsible. But the proof was there. The proof was Haku. And Jai would wait until Haku asked him for help.The boy’s class was holding their exercise a bit faraway from where Jai and Darrion were sitting, so they planned on finishing their food and the news digging before moving to watch Haku. But it actually took longer than anticipated because there was so many information in those papers.It wasn’t anything that could lead them to Alex, unfortunately, but it was a progress to widen their search area and knowledge about this kingdom. At least for Jai, since he didn&r
The Last Thunder 396 - What happened
A few minutes earlier…Haku smiled warmly at Jai and said. “Thank you.”Jai nodded. “Now go before your teacher notices you’re missing.”Haku smiled. He wanted to say that Teacher Komatsu was a very understanding teacher that even if the man caught him a little bit late, he would tolerate him. But he decided against it and instead, he said, “See you at lunch!” to the nice big brother.He then ran back to his class group.Their class was only around one hundred meters away from where the brothers were sitting, just beside the lake in the park. There were only a few people enjoying their morning here, aside from their class group of twenty students.When he returned to his class, his teacher was seen talking with an elderly man.Haku knew this old man. He was Grandpa Bato who lived in the neighbourhood near their school. This sweet old man owned a taiyaki shop near their school and he wou
The Last Thunder 397 - Minor Cuts
The doctor rolled the bandage over the toddler’s left arm. “Just a little bit more, Hiroto-kun! You are doing very well,” she praised the toddler.The toddler sniffed with tears-stained cheeks but did not say anything. The boy had been taken to the nearby school’s infirmary, and fortunately, the boy was only suffering from minor cuts.His mother was beside him, holding him softly while the doctor was doing her job. After it was done, the doctor stood straight, making her ponytail bobbed slightly, and clapped her hands. “Well done, Hiroto! Now it won’t hurt anymore! Just make sure to be careful when moving your arms… Also, I’ve put some ointments on your face to reduce the pain,” the doctor pointed to his cheeks that had two, big sized bandages along the side of his face. “Please be careful in your play next time, alright?”The toddler nodded hesitantly. “Yes.”The mother picked
The Last Thunder 398 – Lesson
“Before we start, let me introduce myself and my teachers. My name is Shino Akutagawa,” the principal introduced himself. “They are two of the teachers in this school, Kido Tadahira and Aru Komatsu,” gesturing to the bulky teacher beside Jai and the teacher wearing glasses who was standing between Haku and the ponytail girl.Both men inclined their heads in response.“And these students are from Komatsu-san’s class,” gesturing to the children in the room before turning to them again. “You may introduce yourselves or not, young men. We will not disclose anything to anyone. What is discussed in this room, stays in this room.”Jai and Darrion looked at each other for a few seconds before both of them nodded at the same time. Jai then lowered his scarf. “Hello. My name is Jai and this is my friend, Darrion.”Darrion nodded. “Nice to meet you.”Their introduction instantly got
The Last Thunder 399 – Class-Subtitute
The walk to the class was very quiet and awkward. Haku didn’t feel really bad in the end because he wasn’t blamed for attacking Jiro, because Jiro was the one pushing him to do that. But the principal was right, he should’ve reacted better than throwing ice lance at his classmate in the midst of anger.He then felt a pat on his shoulder, turning his attention to his female classmate beside him.Niina stared at him. “You okay?”Haku pulled his lips into a flatline. “Better.”Niina smiled, saying, “That’s good. Sorry I can’t do much,” to which Haku replied with a gentle nod.Komatsu watched the two of them with a warm look. ‘Haku is not a bad boy. He’s quite brilliant if only he doesn’t absent a lot. It’s just a matter of calming his heart with him,’ he thought as he watched his white haired student from behind. Then he looked at his other student who had
The Last Thunder 400 - Leaving the school
The substitute class was fortunately, not boring. Darrion had thought that it would be boring since Jai had to translate what he’s saying a few times. But it actually went quite well in his part as his part was only theoretical.After his speech about him having to be actively flying in order to rescue Jai who had fallen from a cliff because the thunder boy had just tried to fight a big lizard, Jai took over with fighting tips that got the children’s excitement to stay.Jai gave them demonstration, using Darrion as a dummy. He didn’t punch the windlet for real, but the windlet faked in quite dramatically and earned laughter from the children.When the school bell rang, they wrapped it up with short element review and Jai showing off his thunder to them.The principal came not long after, and stopped their class. “It’s lunch time. We have prepared some food for you two, Jai-san, Darrion-san.”“Oh we actually
The Last Thunder 401 – Next Level?
They entered the tea shop, which name was actually what Darrion had said, the Pao-Pao Tea Shop. This one was traditional looking than the Red Ice Parlor that looked slightly into the 20s. It was also smaller than the Red Ice Parlor, but the arrangement of the furniture wasn’t that packed.The floor was made of timbers and the tables were raised slightly to accommodate the ‘sit on ground’ style. The walls were brown with yellow lights decorating its top. It was not that classy, but it was quite leisure looking.Jai brought his friend to sit in the nearest table and the blonde instantly let himself fall to the wooden seating with a soft thud.“Ah… Let me close my eyes for a few seconds, my friend,” Darrion said.Jai chuckled. “Sure. I’ll order us something,” he then looked around to spot the counter, and then walked up to it. As he walked, he was curious just how much energy does his friend spend every
The Last Thunder 402 - A Warning
Jai and Darrion hung around across Haku’s school, not trying to be lowkey at all. But they did buy a mask in a nearby store to cover up Darrion’s face.His blonde hair might be a stand out, but this kingdom is a place for different ethnicities. The children in Haku’s school have different hair colors and facial lines. Not all of them looked Asian, or, well, Japanese looking. So it shouldn’t be that rare to see a guy with blonde hair walking around. But they were trying to cover his face because Jai had covered his with his own scarf.Even though they did say they’re trying to spread their influence, ehm, presence, they didn’t hope that would happen to many people. Because that would obviously overwork Darrion, and Jai wouldn’t want to do that to his friend.They had agreed to keep it simple. Jai used his knowledge he learned at his crash course for business school, and he would target the children for their cause. Choosi
