418 - Not really but yeah
“Oh, I don’t expect you to ask that this early in the morning,” Gilbert smiled as he checked in letters that had just come in.
“It’s not way past early in the morning, Gilbert,” Mika put a batch of letters on the counter and patted Darrion’s shoulder. “Welcome back, little brother! How’s your morning? And Jai too, hello!!”
Jai responded with a wave and Darrion grinned at her. “Hiya, sister Mika! Very good! We got to see a beautiful orange bird flying above us today. How about you?”
Mika smiled happily. “Oh I also feel great today! I got to see a parade of kindergarteners taking a stroll near my home. They’re all so cute!” Then she saw Shoru on Jai’s shoulder and her eyes sparkled. “They’re cute like you, Shoru-chan!”
Shoru looked confused and she instinctively leaned closer to Jai. This action made Mika giggle.
“To answer your que

The Last Thunder 419 - Meeting Baji
Jai walked up the stairs of the second floor. He had heard about this Baji from Kotori and she said he was someone nice and welcoming. He expected him to be like what she told him, but he was prepared if he wasn’t.When he reached the second floor and turned around to the manager seat he saw in the previous day. He saw a man writing something on a paper. He had thick, long hair, that was currently tied and thick eyebrows. He was wearing the same brown themed outfit with the others, but he was wearing his pants like a khaki and he was also wearing a pair of dark military boots.The man had big, olive colored eyes which soon came into contact with Jai’s own ocean blue. The man smiled. “Oh, hello. You’re Jai, right?”Jai smiled back. “Yes, I am. You said you wanted to talk to me?”“Yes. I can’t believe they got you so fast. I mentioned you only slightly later than the office’s entry hour,” Baj

“Forgive me. I was only taking precaution since you didn’t seem to want to ask,” Baji said. This man was cautious of him a second ago, but now, his whole demeanor had changed. He seemed calmer and he was more welcoming.Jai didn’t think that he would do this though. It was the first time they meet after all, and he had already pushed Jai to tell him his real intention visiting this kingdom by just… What? A single lie?“Did you tell from my lie about the hunt?” Jai asked.Baji nodded. “And Gilbert’s assessment on you. As I said, it’s weird that Carrola mentioned you by name and asked us to protect you. We’re just windlets here, boy. If he wants someone to protect you, he should’ve asked someone from the Adventurer Guild, not us. But since you also don’t know why, maybe he was just worried for the two of you.” The man smiled.Jai thought that made sense. Whenever he was tog
The Last Thunder 421 - On the way to the café
Jai and Darrion hung around the place for a short while. Shoru was being fussy that Jai left her, so they were trying to make her calm down.She instantly hid under Jai's scarf when he held her again, and she didn't want to go anywhere. Even if Jai pulled her down, she would be noisy and insisted on hiding there. So he stopped trying.Since they weren't in a hurry, Darrion managed to squeeze in some mail delivery with Raul while Jai helped with listing the letters that checked in. It was an ordinary morning compared to yesterday. There was no robbery or anything. They were short staffed because four of them had to help in the celebration day, but nothing they couldn't handle. And with Darrion helping them around the neighborhood, they could manage just fine.They left an hour before the clock strikes mid day. Jai didn't think Shoru would appreciate the dash after her scare, so he insisted they walk to the café rather than dashing there with Darrion's wind
The Last Thunder 422 - Akamine Brothers
“Heey~!” Ruta greeted as he approached their table.“Hey Ruta!” Darrion greeted back.“Hello, Ruta-san.” Jai greeted.“Aww, call me Ruta too, Brother Jai!” Ruta giggled.Jai chuckled. “What would your brother think of me then?” Jai gestured him to sit beside him, and Ruta did with an excited giggle.“You’re not from around here, you don’t have to follow our rules.” Ruta said.Jai smiled. “It’s the fact that I’m not from around here that I have to play by the rules. I want to be polite.” Jai poked his nose.Ruta frowned in confusion. “I don’t understand…”“You’re still too young to understand.” A handsome guy with redder hair appeared beside their table. “Hey.”“Oh hey, you must be Ruta’s brother.” Jai stood up and offered his hand.Yuta
The Last Thunder 423 - Okay?
“Hey, is it possible for you to come and give us some tips about fighting?” Yuta asked after swallowing his food.“Hmm. I don’t know. Where would we be training though?” Jai asked.“Oh, is it the training ground in the southeast? On the way to the Windlet Post Office?” Darrion asked.“No, Brother Darrion! That’s the one used for grown-ups.” Ruta answered.“Well, your brother ‘is’ a grown-up, isn’t he?” Darrion smiled.“But what about me?” Ruta pouted. “I want to be trained by Brother Jai too!”“Are you also thunder elemer?” Darrion asked.“Eh?” Ruta frowned. “No… I’m a water elemer…” The little boy seemed to have just realized the difference, and he looked sad.His reaction made Jai and Darrion chuckle.“Don’t worry, Ruta-san. I have one or t
The Last Thunder 424 - To the hospital
Blood dripped to the ground below as the world seemed to stop.Jai stared at the two unknown men beside him. One of them was wearing ragged outfit. He was dirty and bummer looking, shaking, and fear was visible in his eyes as he stared at the other man in front of him. The other man, a young man, who was standing between Jai and the bum, was fairly familiar with his flame-style brown hair and neat looking appearance.The young man’s hand was holding a knife. No, the correct description would be that his palm was stabbed by a knife that it went through from one side to the other. That would’ve hurt like hell, but the guy who was stabbed didn’t even wince or flinch. Instead, the young man glared at the hooligan and held the man’s hand tightly, not intending to let go.“Claude?” Jai whispered in surprise.Claude turned his head slightly and his eyes locked onto Jai. The same sharpness that Jai saw in their last meeting was
The Last Thunder 425 - Not for now
“Thank you, Jai-san. You may visit Claude-san in three days, and if there’s anything happening to Claude-san, we will notify you immediately.” Said the nurse in the A wing receptionist after Jai had filled in the form for Claude.Jai nodded. “Thanks.” Then he turned around to the Akamine brothers. “Alright, we can go now.”“Jai-san, your scarf’s down.” Yuta reminded, immediately helping Jai with the scarf from behind.“Ah, thanks.” He noticed the people in the lobby were looking at him and that was sure because his scarf down. But he didn’t feel like talking to other people right now and he wanted to get out from there to avoid making commotion. “Let’s go, Yuta, Ruta.”The two boys agreed and immediately left the place. There were some people that followed them to try and talk to Jai, but Yuta helped him turn them down and told them that they really needed to g
The Last Thunder 426 - Dinner with Baji (1)
While waiting for the sun to set, Jai and Darrion rested at their room while reading some newspapers they requested from Hinako. Around dusk, Jai bathed Shoru.It would be a bit risky for her health to bathe her again today since she had her bath just the day before. But Jai remembered the doctor said that her kind lived in the mountains where it’s cold. He thought she just needed something to cool her off due to her blood, so another bath would at least be alright.Besides, she kept staying around the pond outside of their room and playing with the water. The pond was deep enough for her to drown, so giving her a bath would be a better option.A knock came to their door when Darrion was drying the little one, and Hinako’s voice spoke behind it. “Ano… Brother Jai and Brother Darrion? This is Hinako…”Jai put on some clothes before opening the door. “Yes, Hinako-san?”“Etto, are you expecting s
