The Last Thunder 521 – Stumbling upon (4)
Usha sat on the neat desk while looking around quietly. The room was spacious. There were two desks in the room. One belongs to Carrola, which Usha was currently sitting on right now, and the other that was slightly on the side and near the window. He didn’t know who that desk belongs to, but it has four small flags of different colors that are fancy to his eyes.There was also a set of couch three meters in front of Carrola’s desk, which probably where he had his guests sit. But then why put Usha down on his desk rather than on the couch?The little kitten turned its head to the side again and was attracted to the big window in the room. Since it was almost mid-day, the sun was high, and it illuminated the room with its light. There’s no lamplight needed. The sun’s light is more than enough to illuminate the room. Usha bet even at night, this room would still be very well lit by the moonlight with window that big.“You are a cute and special little kitty. You’ll be sitting here with

The next day, Jai and Darrion woke up in the morning and had breakfast together with the Matsuri siblings. Hinako insisted that they had breakfast because she said that they still look pale.“I don’t care where you stayed at the night before—umm, well, as long as it’s cheaper than us. B-But you absolutely have to eat with us today.” Hinako said with a firm nod. She had stopped their tracks in the lobby, not letting them pass just yet.Behind the counter, Daisuke looked at his sister with mixed feelings. “Hina-chan! You’re being rude to our guests.”But instead of getting upset, her boldness brought smile upon Jai’s face. Luckily, the windlet agency helped in informing the siblings that he and Darrion would be out for some time. However, he could feel how worried she must’ve been feeling when they were gone without notice. He believed that she only wanted to make sure they’re alright.“Of course. We will be there.” Jai said. Shoru’s whining barks echoed in the background as she was bei

Darrion glanced at his friend beside him. The thunder elemer had put on his scarf again because his exposed face turned out to be quite a problem. They were still in a busy street, so people could notice him. He had attracted some crowds (mostly females) just a while ago and Darrion had to bring them out of the street with a dash.They were still walking to the post office, but Darrion couldn't help but find it weird that Jai was acting very calm."Jaai..." Darrion called beside him, wanting to discuss about what had just happened.The one called was busy making his scarf to accommodate both Shoru and to cover his face. Even though the style was just like usual, Jai seemed to have make it somewhat.... Difficult.He ended up bundling the scarf to cover his entire head. Shoru's tail could be seen waggling from the side, but the puppy's body was missing. It was unknown whether the puppy was put under his jaw or somewhere above his head, since his head was all covered.He looked very ridi

Jai and Darrion followed Baji up the stairs. The inn was said to be in this floor. It was built specifically to accommodate the adventurers who were too tired to look for an inn after a long mission.When they reached the second floor, immediately, they could see a counter. There was a cute girl sitting behind it, reading a book. She had dark brown hair with long hair tied up in a low pony tail. Her bangs is hime cut, and she is wearing round glasses for her hazel eyes. Her gaze swiped up and she instantly noticed them. She put her book on the desk and stood up to bow. “T-Tachibana-san…!!”Baji waved his hand. “Please.”The girl stood straight and fixed her glasses. Her gaze turned to Jai and Darrion and she bowed politely to greet them too, which they replied.“I’m here to see your master. Please don’t let anyone in.” Baji told her.The girl nodded and gestured him to go to her right. Baji thanked her and signalled them to go with him. They entered the hallway with two doors. Baji st

Jai thought that since Baji didn’t tell them to wait nor leave, they should just wait for him to finish with whatever business he had with that beautiful knightess. And the restaurant is the best place to wait, because they can eat while they wait.The two of them left the room and went to the stairs. They met the girl with glasses from before, still behind the inn’s counter while reading a book. She put the book down and stood up when she noticed them walking nearby.Jai bowed his head slightly to her, and she did the same. When Jai and Darrion had wanted to step down to the stairs, she asked. “I-Is Tachibana-san still in the room?”Jai was slightly bewildered by the question. But he nodded. “Yes.”“A-Alright… Umm…” The girl hesitated, pausing the guys’ steps once again. “U-Umm… I… I know you two… You are Jai Waetford… A-And Darrion the Speedy Windlet…”Darrion nudged Jai. “What did she say?” Jai whispered. “She recognized us.”Darrion smiled at. “Yep. That’s us!”The girl blushed a
Last Updated : 2022-06-27The Last Thunder 526 – Darrion gets a check-up
“May I have your name, please~?” Asked the nurse with a high-pitch voice. Her voice reminded Jai of the animated characters back then in his previous world. It was high-pitched and adorable. The nurse was also timid and friendly. She was smiling sweetly to Jai, showing the dimples on both of her slightly chubby cheeks that were currently colored by faint, rosy blush.He didn’t have his scarf lowered like he usually does in the hospital, but it seems like the people there already recognize him. Because the nurses in the receptionist were all smiling at him. He didn’t think that saying his name would matter or not, but he said it anyway. “Jai Waetford.”The nurse who was servicing him wrote his name down in the form. She then gave Jai the pen and pointed to the small box at the end of the paper. “Please sign here, Waetford-san.”Jai checked the fillings in the form, when he was sure the data is correct, he took the pen and gave his signature. “How long would the check up take?”“It’s on

They paid for Darrion’s check-up and medicines before going back into the A wing. This time, they went to the second floor, because Doctor Inoha didn’t say anything about Claude’s room being moved. After checking in with the registry’s desk for the visit, they went to Claude’s room. However, there was a person who was already there.It was a female doctor. Her medium dark hair was pulled into a bun, tied with a hairstick with a single green jade ornament. Her eyes are dark green and slightly slanted, but in an elegant way, and with the eyelids touched with thin eyeliner, it made her look beautiful. Her lips that were touched by peach are thin, and she was smiling in a slight smirk.She was wearing a dark green blouse with frills on the collars underneath her doctor coat. From the waist down, she was wearing a long dark pants that fit her, and dark formal shoes.Jai recognized this doctor. She was the one who approached them in the last visit when they were waiting for Doctor Inoha to

“And that sums all, I think…” Darrion said, finishing the story.“Ah so did you guys meet the fairy again to help with the problem? You were running, right? You should be chased by the fairy too and received punishment, just like before.” Claude said.Jai and Darrion immediately looked at each other. The same question was asked inside both of their heads at the same time: ‘How come Claude remembers about the fairy?’‘Didn’t Waji said that no one will be able to remember them unless it’s a blessed person?’ Jai asked to himself. He heard about it, Waji said it himself that there people who are worthy of remembering them and not. ‘If Claude was able to remember he ever met a fairy, then does it mean that he’s blessed?’“Claude. Do you remember the fairies?” Darrion asked.Claude nodded. “Yes.”Jai and Darrion glanced at each other briefly. They didn’t have any telepathic abilities with each other, but both of them had a thought to confirm Claude’s memory of the fairy to make sure if the

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
