The Last Thunder 491 – Green is here!
The sound of water droplet echoed and a blue mushroom fairy appeared in an area in the ancient forest. The fairy looked around and looked confused. “Eh? Jai is not here?”Another blip sounded and another appeared beside it, its other blue sibling. “He’s not here too?”Anorther blip appeared, but this one was a bit far from the area. “Jaaai?” Another blue fairy called.The three then vanished at the same time and appeared in front of their other blue siblings that had regrouped in a certain area. “Jai is not here.”“Not in this area either?” The other asked.A blue fairy shook its head. “Oh this miasma is making it difficult…”The blue fairies then talked among themselves, trying to figure out how to get to Jai like they had planned.“Why is there miasma in here anyway? Waji’s forest should be free of demonic energy…”“It’s like that time with purple sibling and the wolf.”“Wasn’t Jai also there? He was hurt but he was healed.”“Oh yes… Purple sibling said that there was miasma around
The Last Thunder 492 – The fae’s concern
“Jai had been bitten once? By what?” Darrion asked after the purple fairy had finished explaining why the miasma wouldn’t affect Jai at all. “And by the way, what is miasma?”“Miasma is the bad aura from demonic monsters. It is demonic energy and is bad for both humans and animals.” The purple fairy explained. “That puppy was once demonic, but Waji cleansed it and now it’s free.”Darrion looked at Shoru, who looked clueless of what was currently discussed by the humans around. “What would happen if a human touch it?” Darrion asked.“They will become weak and sickly. They won’t be able to move freely anymore. If they are not cleansed, the miasma will stay inside the body until the human dies.” The fairy explained.“Kind of like a tumor…” Kasuga commented with a hum.“What’s the difference between miasma and that poison in the air that you mentioned before? Because from your explanation, it doesn’t seem like it’s different from poisons.” Darrion asked.“It’s because miasma is magical. I
The Last Thunder 493 – Coming back
Darrion and the red fairy appeared in mid-air. Surrounding them were the ancient trees that grew from far down below. Various faint sounds permeated in the air all around Darrion.‘The whispers of the beasts.’ Darrion thought. These were indeed the voices of various beasts that were caught within his hearing area. He could also hear some whispers, talky-talky whispers that somehow felt a bit eerie. It had almost the same smokey sense to it like that time when he was aboard the flying ship to Corus Mountain.‘Those must be the spirits…’ He thought to himself. He then tried to tune them out from his hearing area to avoid unfavourable things.The fairy hummed and scratched its red mushroom hat with the rose it was holding. “Strange… They were just here.”Darrion noticed its hesitation. “Did they move already?”The fairy lowered its hand and nodded. “Yes. They had moved further… There.” The fairy pointed to their northwest. “They are moving so fast. Sparky is so fast.”Darrion glanced at
The Last Thunder 494 – No More Running
The air around them suddenly became very hot. It felt as if he was standing on the edge of a crater on top of an active volcano. While he had never been a traveller kind of individual, and had never stood on top of any volcano, he said such things because, well, it felt almost like the times he had ever been struck by summer heatwave.“Why is it so hot all of a sudden?” Jai whispered to himself.“J-Just go, Jai!” The green fairy clutched his hair, fearing the snake would get to him but it could not do anything because of the sudden change in the air.While Jai, he knew he was running, but something felt very different from before. It felt as if there are several ropes tied to him and something under or behind him, and it felt like he was dragging something that was so heavy.The thunder boy looked down to his own front body part, however, he couldn’t see anything bounding him to anything like he had thought he would.He was moving, but he was agonizingly slow. He knew he was moving hi
The Last Thunder 495 – Sustaining
“Thunder Spread!” Jai shouted.He stretched his right hand forward and thunder shot out of his palm. The thunder skill spread open like an umbrella on the snake’s face. It was like a flashbang, the bright thunder blinded the snake’s sight for a few seconds. But it also managed to hurt the snake’s face, because it recoiled back after the thunder hit it.“SSHHH SSHHH!!” It hissed loudly. It moved around for a few seconds, blinking its eyes, if it could be said like that. There was this rather transparent membrane in its eyes that helped it blink twice. It didn’t affect it whatsoever though, it was a flashbang like attack and it would render it blind for at least five seconds.Jai knew using this trick on this snake shouldn’t be really effective because the snake tracked him using the heat in his body and… What? 6th sense? He knew snake sometimes read the air with their tongue, and since this was an evolved creature… This is a monster, not an ordinary snake anymore. Everything should be
The Last Thunder 496 – Duo (1)
The snake heard the blonde’s shout and instantly turned to their direction.“Hey there, you ugly snake beast! It’s time to get beaten up for good!” Darrion shouted at it.The snake saw the new human in yellow hair beside its target and glared slightly. The snake rolled out its tongue once before lunging to their direction.Both of them didn’t know whether it was provoked by Darrion’s words or not, but it wasn’t like they’re going to let it go just like that anyway.They had not agreed to a plan just yet. But both of them trusted each other and knew exactly how their small team would work. It was just like when they were traveling to the Fire Kingdom. Jai would obviously do all the slaying while Darrion was the one blasting the monsters away when they wanted to gank his friend or himself.Darrion was also thinking the same. He was used to that kind of strategy anyway. He was never the one putting the damage, it was always Jai. Jai was the one who had fighting experience more than him,
The Last Thunder 497 – Duo (2)
The snake circled the tree down. It expected to see the two humans flying between the trees, but when it should've reached the height where they should've been, the humans weren't there.The snake rolled its tongue out, making sure that the humans were still there. It could sense their heat in the air, dispersing bit by bit, but it was still traceable.The heat is signified by the red mist, and that is what differentiate it from other kinds of signature. Humans are walking heat bags. Their heat is more than what other creature secrete, and it was quite distinguished in the snake's eyes. It swiped its eyes to look up, as both heat signs were going up. It saw the trace and looked up at it, noticing it split up into a branch, with one going upwards and the other going to another direction.The tongue rolled out again, testing to see which heat signs were which. But it wasn't easily differentiated. Both of them were humans and they have the same heat signs.The snake looked between up an
The Last Thunder 498 – Thunder Slash
When Jai was talking with Darrion and examining the sword, the snake hissed loudly again. Its voice echoed in the forest, but it wasn’t as loud as the Gori-gori.Then Jai was put back into the battlefield. But as he was just floating down, he noticed. There were something—no, some things on the snake’s back. They were faint smokes, but it disappeared very quickly and enticed Jai’s curiosity.He kind of had an idea of what it is, but he needed to make sure. So he raised his left hand up and said. “Darrion, take me up for a bit.”Darrion frowned as he heard that. One second he asked him to put him down and the next second he said to pull him up. “Make up your mind.” Darrion told Jai as the blonde took him up again.“I mean, flying around, like a fly on a cake.” Jai said.That comparison wasn’t too hard for Darrion to understand. He complied. He took Jai higher and made him surround the snake in mid-air like a fly checking out foods. The blonde himself flew higher to oversee him and make

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
The Last Thunder 605 – Red meets Red
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
