The Last Thunder 553 – Darrion, Observation (1)
Darrion left the Adventurer Guild and followed the direction Lesley had given him. The directions led him a bit far. The Guild is north from the post office, slightly to the east. But the direction Lesley gave him led him a bit west. It led him to a district which comprises of small businesses, like small restaurants, snack shop, accessories store, and so on.He also realized that as he went to this direction, the buildings became more modern. Wooden architecture becomes less and less as he went to this direction. It led him to think that the center of the kingdom should be a very busy business district, and surely that’s where the average and richer people are living.That makes sense since their castle is in the middle of the kingdom. It was near that tower like structure that they saw at the Entrance Gate. He also realized that the residential places are a bit closer to each other rather than in their inn’s compound. Probably because it’s in a livelier area. But he’s not sure. He
The Last Thunder 554 – Darrion , Observation (2)
It took around a minute or two before the door was opened though. He could hear a female grunt in the background before someone came to the door. When it was opened, there was a woman there. She seemed to be in her 40s, looking at how some parts of her face skin had wrinkled.“Hm? Nani?” She snapped at him. She didn’t yell or what, but she raised her chin slightly when she said it.‘This lady doesn’t seem to care if I’m a windlet at all. She does not want to be bothered, at all.’ Darrion thought. He didn’t need to know what that word she just said, he was certain she doesn’t like him there at that moment.“Eh!!” the woman exclaimed, calling Darrion. Her brows were frowning as she asked. “Nani shiteru no?!”Darrion forced a bright smile. “Ah, konnichiwa! Erm, I’m looking for this address.” He showed her the paper.She took the piece of paper and read the content. She then huffed and returned it to him. She pointed upstairs. “Inu boya was…” She said something fluent in Shouha. He couldn
The Last Thunder 555 – Unstable Fangs
Darrion sat across the teenage boy in the living room. The kid was more presentable now. The kind woman helped in treating his wound, also in cleaning the boy because it turned out, he had a few bruises that wasn’t treated yet. The woman ended up helping the boy clean up, and now, he was fresher than before Darrion took him in this house.The man behind the woman before was also one of the tenants in this house. The man entered the living room and put a tray on the coffee table between the two.“Here, warm tea.” The man said with a smile. The man’s universal language wasn’t very fluent.Darrion smiled back at him. “Thank you. Arigatou gozaimasu.”The man nodded. Then he turned to the boy. “Ashi ga mou ittai? Nonde. Nah. Nah.” The man pushed the teacup closer to the boy. But the boy ignored the man, he was still looking down with slight frown and pout.“Ah…” The man glanced at Darrion, who glanced back at him with equal helpless look.The man forced a smile still. Then he spoke somethi
The Last Thunder 556 – About Kuroda (2)
Darrion was brought to the kitchen and served a cup of warm green tea, since his cup was left in the living room of the house where Kuroda was in.As he held the cup, he asked the woman. "Pardon me for intruding, but what did you talk about with him? Why does he look so angry?" Darrion asked, looking at the woman. After saying about hatred, Kuroda and the woman were talking in Shouha, so he had to find out from this woman.The kind woman prepared another cup before sitting down by the dinner table across from him."That boy... Arimura Kuroda-kun... My husband and I knew him as our cheerful teenage neighbour." The lady said."Is he the only teenager in this alley?" Darrion asked."Well, no, but the teenagers who lives here are..." She struggled to find the words. "Not quite."Darrion confusedly looked at her. "Not quite what?"The woman looked at her reflection on the tea surface. She had troubled look "Their social circle is not very nice. They're brash, knuckle heads, impolite words
The Last Thunder 557 – Tracing Kuro (1)
He’s not full-time Adventurer, nor is he the police or military. He also didn’t have permission to search his room, but Kuroda needs help, and he would be the one to help.Coming back to the house, Darrion saw a young man and a woman walking from the center hallway—the one that leads to the stairs. The woman was the same woman that opened the door for him before, while the man, he looked around 25 or so. Both of them noticed him entering and Darrion swore the woman looked surprised. Probably, she didn’t think he would return at all.Darrion greeted them politely. “Excuse me. Konnichiwa.”The woman swallowed and looked to the side. From her expression, she seemed a bit annoyed and nervous. Both edges of her lips curved downward and she tried to act nonchalantly. But Darrion noticed her body gestures were a bit different from when he met her the first time. While the young man, he immediately approached Darrion.“Yes? Hai?” His voice was heavy and slightly breathy, but he replied in uni
The Last Thunder 558 – Late breakfast
Shoru hid under the short table in the hang out room. Her eyes were looking brightly at all four sides that were open around her, in case the one she was trying to hide from would come to find her.No, she knew that one was coming to get her. That’s why she’s hiding.But she’s not scared at all here. Her lips twitched to a smile, if only she could, she would look very adorable.Even though there are many people here unlike in their inn, she was getting used to it quickly. It must be because there are two other lesser beasts in here that are very friendly towards her. Moreover, they easily get along with one another. Probably because they’re all small in size. Other than the pink dragonfly that was currently Shoru look out for, both Rita and herself are palm sized. But Sakura isn’t all that big either, she’s only a bit bigger than her.Talking about the pink the dragonfly, she had just flown into the room and perched on the very table Shoru was hiding under. But the little wolfy did no
The Last Thunder 559 – Crash Course
“So, Jai-san, are you still curious about the Ten Guardian Clans in Shouha?” Yuta asked.Jai paused his meal. He swallowed and put his bowl of rice down as he stared down at the guy. “Yeah. Also about the dragon. Can you explain all of them to me?”Yuta smiled and nodded. “Sure. So we’ll start with the guardian clans. The first is us, the Akamine. We are the attendants of our great dragon’s needs, Lord Homura’s needs. The second is the Momoshima. They handled the agricultural of the kingdom. The third one is Iwaizumi, they’re the ones who help with royal affairs. They’re like the helpers, but most of them are very strict individuals.”“They work with the Hirabayashi clan, also one of the guardian clans, and the keeper of the law. The Hirabayashi are also a bit uptight, but not as strict.” Yuta explained.Jai frowned when he heard the fourth name. “I’ve heard of that one.”“Oh which one of has you heard of it? Takeshi Hirabayashi or Satoshi Hirabayashi?” Yuta asked him.“The latter one
The Last Thunder 560 – Tracing Kuro (2)
Darrion went back to Kuroda’s room to do some tracing. Now, he knew just how hard it would be to trace something a few days back. He figured it would just be like in the Parlor. But that place is familiar territory, and he had Jai and Arata around to watch out for him in case anything happens. But there’s no one else here that knows about him.Moreover, the only one left in the house were himself and that despicable woman downstairs. He still had his suspicion on her after he found out she had stolen Kuroda’s wallet.It was quite obvious now that he thought about it again. He had just banged the door open, the sound would obviously attract them to check. He didn’t actually know she had stolen the wallet, he just felt something different from her previous behavior. Thankfully he listened to his instinct this time. Because he could salvage one of the crucial things needed for the investigation.However, he would keep the wallet for now and focus on Windtracing. He would have to do it fa
