The Last Thunder 573 – Wrong Place
Like he said, Jai didn’t puke when they arrived at the North Branch Adventurer’s Guild. It was as if it’s a normal occurrence to him by now. Although his head is slightly off when they arrived, it was almost the same as the fifth time his dear friend the speedy windlet had taken him to the places in the Wind Kingdom. Though, it wasn’t as bad.The North Branch Adventurer’s Guild is only slightly smaller than the South Branch from the outside. It’s also a two storey building with a balcony on its side on its second floor. Like its South counterpart, the roof is also red in color. There were three different flag colors above the door, just like the South. The only difference is that there’s a logo of a shield with two swords behind it above the entrance door.They entered the building and Jai was taken aback by how different it looked. Unlike the South Guild that felt homey and adventure like, this one is… Luxurious. The walls are in a lighter theme, the guild’s mission board is also ado
The Last Thunder 574 – Seeds of Clues
Darrion dashed back to the clinic after he’s done with his work at the Guild. He didn’t even visit the Post Office first, he just dashed straight to the clinic. He needed to pick up Shoru and checked on Kuro’s condition after all.“Oh, windlet-san.” The other doctor greeted when he arrived. “Doctor Myoga’s out at the moment.”“I want to pick up my dog. Where’s she?” Darrion asked.“Oh she’s still in the Recovery Room. She hasn’t left there at all.” The doctor got up and took him to the room. “I can’t let you be back here for too long though. Doctor Myoga is in charge of this room, and I don’t want to overstep him when he’s absent.”Darrion nodded. “Alright.”The doctor opened the door and Darrion saw Yuzu the lizard and Michi the Mousling in their respective beds, currently sleeping, while Shoru was lying right in front of Kuro’s bed. She had her back to him, and her tail was wagging ever once in a while, which shows that she wasn’t sleeping. Darrion could see two small things on Kuro
The Last Thunder 575 – Following the lead
Jai blinked his eyes and re-read the letter’s content. He wanted to make sure he didn’t misread the entire thing.‘There’s an old magazine shop in the town’s southeast. Just across a field. The owner knows someone called Hayate.’As far as he could remember, Jai had never mentioned the names of the kidnappers other than to the windlets of the South branch. Those two windlets who just left couldn’t possibly know, because the ones who know about the problem are this branch and not the smaller branches.“Who sent this?” Jai asked Gilbert.“A young man. He’s wearing dark outfit. He didn’t seem to hurry but he wanted this letter to be sent quickly.” Gilbert asked.“Did he mention his name?” Jai asked that because neither the envelope nor the letter has the sender’s identity. There’s just a name under the ‘sender’ word, that is ‘Person’.“Anonymous. Could it be from someone you knew? What is it about?” Gilbert asked.“I-It’s a…” Jai was confused on how to say it. “I-It says about a lead. Bu
The Last Thunder 576 – Soccer Playmates
“Are you sure this is the right way?” Jai asked.“I think so. There’s a field around here. It’s just straight ahead.” Gilbert pointed in front of them.Sure thing, after a few meters, there was a field on their right side. They knew this because even though there are wooden walls acting as fence covering some sides of the field, there were a few patches of wooden board missing.The sky had turned darker orange by the time they reached there, but there were still some children playing in the field.They were shouting, laughing, and snickering among themselves as they were playing, sending Jai the feeling of nostalgia as he remembered his elementary school year. He had once played soccer with his friends, and he kinda missed that now. He couldn’t do that now, since almost all of his friends were busy with their own… problems.A ball rolled over to their direction and Jai stopped it with his foot. The children looked over to them and waved their hands with big smiles.“Hey, big brother!
The Last Thunder 577 – Old magazine shop
The old man put two cups of tea on the small table in front of Jai, then he took the chair behind the counter and sat across from him. Gilbert was standing behind Jai, looking as if he was checking out the goods. There were actually some books among the shelves, having its own section. So it wasn’t surprising now that the kids call this a bookstore.“Thank you, Shiroe-san.” Jai thanked the man.The old man, Shiroe, waved his hand dismissively. “Ah. Apology… There’s not much in here.”“It’s alright. I come from a village too.” Jai replied, to which Gilbert faked a cough and tapped his shoulder.“Oh, please, blonde big brother. You’re also welcome to the tea.” The old man said.Gilbert smiled at him with his charming warm smile as he took a magazine out of the highest shelf, him holding Jai’s shoulder as a ruse to hoist himself up.“How long have you been in this neighbourhood, sir?” Jai then asked.The man didn’t seem to notice that exchange between them as he smiled warmly at Jai. “Si
The Last Thunder 578 – A small bird (1)
By the time they reached the post office, it was already dark. The only ones there were Darrion and Saburo. Since Gilbert is one of the two people who hold the key to the office, it’s only normal for Saburo to wait for him. And Darrion obviously wouldn’t leave before Jai arrived. Also don’t forget our little Shoru that was patiently waiting for her dear friend while lying on a pile of shredded papers.She instantly jumped into his arms when he entered the office, surprising everyone because she suddenly barked, also because she jumped so high from the ground she was practically soaring.Jai took her in his arms with surprise, but she didn’t seem to realize the feat she just did right now. Jai let her bask in his affection as he sent a questioning look towards the others, who sent the same look to him. So in conclusion, none of them knows what had just happened.To save everyone from questioning one another, Gilbert started the conversation.“Thank you for waiting for us. Good work tod
The Last Thunder 579 – A small bird (2)
“You alright? You look pale.” Jai pointed out as they had breakfast together in Jai and Darrion’s room. Shoru was so into her own breakfast to notice anything about the senior windlet.“Yeah. Too quiet for you here?” Darrion asked after swallowing his food.Arata slid a look to the side door which was open. He was waiting for that gaze to return and pay attention to them. Weird, yes, but he just wanted to make sure that the person was really targeting these two or him.That gaze made him restless. Arata did not sleep well that night, and that’s probably why he looked a bit pale.Although the gaze didn’t feel as sharp and as violent as the ones directed at him when he was undercover, it’s hard to ignore. There aren’t many things that could intrigue him to ‘watch out’ for something or someone, but this one irked him. And he was feeling as such because he was currently with two juniors that he had to keep an eye on.The two didn’t seem to notice, but he felt it strange because Darrion, a
The Last Thunder 580 – Directions Prep
“Thanks, and good luck, Jai.” Gilbert said as he checked in the 45th letter for the morning.Jai initiatively put the updates on the billboard by himself since the windlets were so busy. Even he didn’t manage to see his friend. ‘Darrion must be away to deliver letters with Harris.’“Oh don’t forget to tell Baji-san where you’re going today. He’s upstairs.” Gilbert said before he returned to the customers. “Hello. Welcome to the South Branch Windlet Post Office.”Jai wanted to go upstairs, but there’s suddenly a loud thud from upstairs before a shout ensued. “WHAT IS THIS!!”The office became quiet then a few angry steps later coming down the stairs, Baji appeared with an upset expression. Jai peeked from doorway.“Where’s Darrion?” He asked his subordinates, still standing on the stairs.Everyone could see the man had some tickets in his right hand, gripped tight, and the windlets knew what ticket it was.Arata didn’t want to be involved, he covered his face with an envelope and prete
