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
The rest of the afternoon went just like the day before. However, due to the parlor having so many customers because of them, they couldn’t send the letters that very same day.There were two windlets visiting the parlor too in one of Darrion’s turn, and when the blonde asked them about the letters, they told him to just come the next day to the branch to send it also meet up with the others.Our lovely windlet overjoyed when he heard that, and he made sure that he would visit the branch nearest to them the very next day. Besides, they didn’t have anything to do other than searching for Alex, and if he could have a talk and make friends with his fellow windlets, they would be inclined to help him in this search.Of course, it is without saying that he would not disclose who Alex is. Just that he’s looking for someone with red hair that’s probably not the Akaito guy everyone had mentioned.Seen from any perspective, asking hel
After some check-ups, with Jai holding the pup for it to allow others to touch it, the wolf puppy was discharged by the doctor’s permission.“Why is it clinging to you?” Darrion looked at the pup climbing up to Jai’s chest.“I don’t know. Maybe it remembers me from our fight?” Jai wondered.“Then shouldn’t she be scared of you since you fought her?” Darrion frowned.“Err… Yeah…” Jai frowned as well. “Now that you said that, yeah, it’s confusing.”It does make more sense for the pup to be scared of him. But the pup didn’t seem like it was scared of him at all, it even hid its snout under Jai’s scarf and closed its eyes, making Darrion reached in to rub her back because of how cute it was being.They then walked out of the chamber and saw Ruta, coming out of a room as well while holding a piece of paper. The boy was wearing the s
After dropping Ruta off at his school, Jai and Darrion backtracked to the hospital and made their way to the southeast part of the town. They’re going to one of the windlet branches in Fire Kingdom.“Our windlet service expands throughout the continent, Jai. So we’re everywhere,” Darrion said, trying to make it sound mysterious.“Like the wind?” Jai smiled while rubbing Shoru’s back softly.Darrion laughed. “Just like the wind!”Darrion seemed very eager in coming to the windlet branch, so Jai agreed to go since he didn’t see the harm in it. He was also considering whether or not he should agree with Darrion’s idea about asking the windlets’ help in the search.It certainly sounds like a big help. And he already ‘asked’ the help of the first customers in Haku’s parlor as well. So maybe…Jai hummed and thought. ‘But… There’s no
"Why don't you come straight here, Darrion? We can take care of your lodgings, you know," Gilbert said as he continued his envelope stamping. "I didn't know that I can just check in here and you would help me care for the rest," Darrion scratched his head nervously. Mika and Arata had returned to the back room and continued their work, while Jai and Darrion stayed in the lobby to talk with Gilbert. "Sir Carrola didn't tell you that?" Gilbert looked at him with a frown. "Err... " Darrion looked up slightly, as if trying to remember. "I don't think so... Or, maybe he did... But I don't remember?" Gilbert chuckled. "You probably forgot. But I'm surprised that it took you quite long to reach here. What happened on the road?" "Oh you know~ A couple hindrances.... Monsters... All that good stuffs," Darrion answered, not really giving away the truth. Gilbert looked at him funnily. "Monster hazards is good stuff?" Jai chuckled
Our two favorite boys decided to stick around the post office because mainly, they got nowhere else to go, and nothing else to do. When Gilbert mentioned that they’ll be having a gathering here at lunch and share some stories, the two of them were interested. In Darrion’s case was ecstatic, and Jai was rather excited.He really didn’t think that the windlets in the Fire Kingdom would be as welcoming as the ones in Aeronvein. Those in Takenoko were welcoming either, and he thought that it was just professionalism at first. But their interaction with Gilbert made it seem like it was just a normal thing between windlets to be friendly to others.Even that Mika and Arata didn’t seem to mind that Gilbert invited him and Darrion to their said daily gathering. Instead of showing their disinterest, they asked the two of them if they have any food allergies to avoid the foods they can’t eat at lunch later.This was of course, a nice gesture
Jai met two windlets that he had also met at Haku's parlor previously. They were the ones who insisted that Darrion and him visit the post office to meet the others.The first one is an energetic teenage windlet with messy auburn hair while the other is a young man with black hair combed neatly and wears glasses."How do you like our office, Jai? Pretty neat, huh?!" asked the teenage boy windlet that looked like the hat less version of Daichi from Digimon. He was the first one to approach them too in the parlor, and, it was quite an interesting interaction. The boy shook Jai's hand while talking excitedly, unconsciously shaking their hands for a bit too long until the windlet's partner stopped it.And it was currently happening again.Jai chuckled as he let their hands shook longer once again. "It's very neat and comfortable, Harris."Harris grinned. "I'm glad you like it! We want to make it friendly to others, so I suggested to Manager Ishida that
Jai kept his letter in his pocket and followed the windlets to the back room.There was a small hallway on the right side of the work room (the one where Jai was helping before), that leads to the restroom and pantry. The rest of the windlets gathered here, and Jai followed because he was also quite curious of what that was all about.He reached the pantry after the five windlets, and stood at the doorframe while the others flockong over the female windlet with the headband on the pantry's couch."Man. What a rush... How Harris do this everyday is beyond me," Kotori, the female windlet with red headband said as she left herself sink into the couch.Gilbert came over with a cup of water. "Here, have some water."Kotori immediately took the cup and drank the content, sighing in relief after that. "Thanks, Gilbert.""What happened? Who died?" Mika took a seat beside Kotori and looked at her with curious eyes.Jai lowered Shoru into
Lunch quickly rolled in and the whole gang of South Branch Post Office arrived for the daily gathering. It was just like Gilbert had told them.Other than those who had been introduced, there was another addition, named Raul. He was a kind young man with curly hair and a bright smile. His skin was darker tan and he had big onyx eyes filled with mirth.He was also wearing Shouha themed windlet uniform which comprised of light brown shirt for tops with two pockets on the chest. He was also wearing ¾ sized pants in dark brown color which ends were slipped into a pair of dark brown boots. His outfit was the same as Darrion, minus the ¾ sized pants and boots, as Darrion was wearing a pants that’s just slightly past his knees and he kept his lightweight shoes.Mika and Kotori also wore this kind of brown themed outfits, but Mika was wearing shoes with short heels. Their outfits were actually simple except two people, Gilbert and Saburo.Othe
