The Last Thunder 544 – Making up for cancelled session
The windlet chief didn’t give them clues on what Darrion will be assigned to. But he said that he would inform at least Darrion. When that was done, the two left the second floor.Jai then got a letter from the none other than Akamine. While yes, he also got letters from his fans, and also the girl, Hotaru Bukubukucha.As Jai read her name on the envelope, he wondered whether he should ‘expand’ his connection to the Bukubukucha clan. If his memory is correct, the Bukubukucha is among the Ten Guardian Families of Pyreblair Kingdom. One of the Founders. Maybe their family is connected to the missing Alex? It’s not impossible, but at this point, since anyone can be the suspect, he didn’t want to assume carelessly.The letter from the Akamine brothers are the other interesting one. He had not been able to be in contact with them ever since the first training. He felt bad because it seems like he was hanging up on them. It wasn’t his intention to be taking that long to recuperate. He hoped
The Last Thunder 545 – Patient blonde
Baji had told them that they would be given new task for each of them. Jai’s task had been given right that day, and he started working on it the day after. However, Darrion’s task was still unclear, and that made the young windlet anxious.“Jai, you can start tomorrow. Ask Gilbert the details, he will tell you what to do.” Baji told Jai. Then he turned to Darrion. “We will wait until the weekend for yours. Just stay around.”“Umm… So I just wait?” Darrion asked with a confused look. Baji nodded. “That’s it?” The man nodded again. The young windlet was still curious and confused, but he would endure it. After all, how bad is it to wait for several days?He took his words back. Staying around with no idea what to do is just SO BORING. He thought when the windlet chief said to ‘stay around’, he was still permitted to go with the others to deliver letters. He usually tags along with Saburo, Raul, Kotori, and mostly with Harris. It was so he could remember the ways around. It was hard for
The Last Thunder 546 – Flowers To Say
The next weekend rolled in soon, and Darrion was finally given a task by the windlet chief. Although, Jai wasn’t able to accompany him to the post office, because the Akamine requested that this weekend was the day that Ruta’s next session should be. Although Jai wasn’t able to accompany him to the office, Jai went to the Red Manor Hotel area with him. After bidding each other good luck, they both separated.Shoru ducked her head back after she barked a ‘See you later!’ to Darrion, and Jai fixed his scarf back. He still needed to cover his face. This particular area is very busy, and he would be uncomfortable with many attentions. He glanced briefly at the famous hotel. The meeting with Akaito Fuuji flashed through his mind.‘I don’t know why. But I feel that the guy isn’t what he looks like…’ He thought. There was just something, although he didn’t know where it came from nor why. But he ignored it because he feared his feeling might be wrong.Leaving the hotel area, he went to the h
The Last Thunder 547 – What compound is
The Waka bird wasn’t going very fast like how Jai would think it would. Since his friends at the windlet post office bragged about this bird being one of the beasts that can run fast, he was expecting both edge of his lips to be pulled backwards by gravity. Apparently, that only happened in movies.It wasn’t fast as expected, but it was surely faster than the lizard mount back in Aeronvein.“I think my family will be glad when they know you’re not upset.” Yuta said as the carriage made a turn.The carriage is a closed one type, so no one would be able to see Jai here. Jai lowered his scarf and raised his eyebrows. “Why would I be upset?”“You gave my mother Blue Sendai bouquet last time.” Yuta said.Jai nodded. “Yes… I bought that flower for her. And then?”“Do you know what that flower represents?” Yuta asked.Jai nodded again, however, slower this time. “I do. It’s trust. And I really mean it.”Yuta smiled and nodded. “Good. If you really mean it, then that means you’re genuine. My
The Last Thunder 548 – The second session
Upon going inside, Shoru immediately poked her head out of the scarf and sniffed.Yuta snickered softly. “Oh you can smell it from here already, Shoru-chan?”Shoru turned to Yuta who was standing on Jai’s right side. Her eyes were full of curiosity. But instead of explaining, Yuta only chuckled. “Let’s go.” The guy said.Jai was also curious, but Yuta encouraged them to go, so he would. He let Shoru come out of the scarf before following Yuta deeper into the mansion.He didn’t quite remember the way inside of the mansion, but the inside looked like it doesn’t change at all. He didn’t know what kind of decorations are there in traditional Japanese houses, but he saw some of those here like rich people’s house would be. Though he didn’t think these decors are extravagant.There is a wooden carving that depicted the tail of a dragon, it was put on the wall near the waiting room from the last meeting. Then there were some paintings that are picturesque—mostly about nature. There is a smal
The Last Thunder 549 – Just warming up
After they separated, Darrion made his way to the post office. He pulled a folded paper from his vest pocket and stared at it. This was the letter Baji gave him this morning. The man told him in the letter, that he has a task for him. He immediately overjoyed because he was thinking of getting into new areas that he could use his Windtalker ability to scrap infos.Since Jai was going to the Akamine’s house, they would surely serve him meals. So Darrion had to have his meal alone this time.He thought of buying a snack on the way. Just enough to fill the stomach until lunch comes around. While money isn’t a problem for them, he would like to press their expenses to a minimum. Who knows if they would need it someday?At the same time, he heard sounds of metal clashing on his right. The sound was faint, but he could hear it clearly echoing in the wind. He glanced to the right and saw the locked gate of the training ground.He was then reminded of Jai wanting to buy a sword. No, not for h
The Last Thunder 550 – Eustema
“Have you delivered all the letters in the bag?” Baji asked.“Yes. But you didn’t check.” Darrion said.“I value truth. Why should I check the bag when I can ask you?” Baji replied.Darrion bit back a smile.“Gilbert will check it for me as per his task to report the office log to me. So I’ll know the truth sooner or later anyway.” Baji said. Darrion’s smile fell into a flatline, that small bud of happiness in Darrion’s little heart was just destroyed. He thought Baji had trusted him to that extent, but probably not yet. Or, probably, the older man was just messing around with him.Baji stopped the two of them before they crossed the street. He looked at the blonde up and down before doing something with his hair. Then Darrion felt a slight chance in the wind and something stung his cheek. He reached up to feel it and felt his fingertip wet, when he looked, it was blood.“Did you just Windcut my cheek?” Darrion asked with a frown.“Yes.” The man didn’t even deny it.Darrion’s frown d
The Last Thunder 551 – The Dragons’ Names
Ruta sat on the ground with his legs stretched forward. Jai was crouching across from him, massaging the boy’s feet.“Does it hurt?” Jai asked.“Nope. It feels like when my grandfather gave me a massage.” Ruta said.Jai looked at him strangely. “Really?” The boy nodded, and it somehow made him smile curiously.“Actually, he’s going home today. That’s why I can’t train for long.” Ruta said. The boy leaned forward and whispered. “I actually want to train longer, but honestly, I missed him.”Jai’s smile widened. “How long has it been since he last came home?”Ruta leaned back and stretched his hands up, grunting. “Hmm! Months. He takes care of the dragon’s needs. He rarely comes home because he had to take care of many things.”That got Jai thinking.He wasn’t into superstitious things even though he believed they exist. Sure, there are a few exceptional things like when someone who had their spine cracked and should’ve died but they didn’t. Miracle as they call it, but Jai called it ano
