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

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

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

552 – About Kuroda

“This is the token of Apprentice.” Lesley showed Darrion a bar of turquoise iron that is as big as his pinky. “We have a necklace and an earring. Which one do you prefer?”“This one is fine for me. This one is the necklace, right?” Darrion took the token, noticing the long silvery chain embedded on both ends of it.Lesley nodded. “Yes, it is. I suggest you make it so that everyone can see, but if you prefer not, it’s alright to hide it behind your clothes.”Darrion slid the token around his head. He fixed the back side of the chain to be inside his collar while the iron bar could be seen in front. It was made slightly lose, so the iron bar was slightly outside his shirt. “Is this okay?” The blonde asked.Lesley nodded. “Perfect. Alright. So… Actually, Darrion-san—”“Darrion, please.” Darrion smiled.Lesley gave a small smile. “Darrion. Well, actually, this is kind of a favor that we need your help on… To try. It’s alright if you cannot.”Darrion nodded. “Yes. Lady Cronn told me that.

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

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

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

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

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

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
