All Chapters of Lockers Orphanage: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

[Nowo's POV] I stood up on the colossal's right shoulder, but his sudden shaky body made me lose my balance. Good thing is that I was able to clasp onto his hair, which is why I am able to sit on it. One thing that surprises me is that when I accidentally touched his nape, he started moving weirdly as if he was about to lose his balance. That's why I tried touching it once again, and then after that, I finally figured out that his nape is his weakness. I can hear his loud laughs as I constantly tickle his nape with my fingers, and believe it or not, he fell to the ground. I stood up and asked the Jotnar that is currently lying on the battle area, "Are you alright?" I saw him blinking his eyes, which means that he's perfectly fine. "Well, I guess you're still alive," I breathed. "Of course. I was just tired of laughing. By the way, I want to congratulate you, female defender," he said with a hearty tone. Adjusting himself into a sitting position, he continued, "You were the first on

[Narrator’s POV] Now, the vision is focused on the pair, where you can't hear anything but their endless arguments. The air crackled with tension as Blaze felt an overwhelming urge to push Jack back to the Dwarves' hidden base, as if erasing him from her world would solve everything. The intensity of their clashes was palpable, each word exchanged echoing in the strained atmosphere. "You know what? Your touch feels great!" Jack teased her. The male orphan had asked her for a massage just as they were about to reach the top of the mountain, where the Jotnar was currently waiting for them. Blaze rolled her eyes, a playful exasperation evident in her expression. Despite her annoyance, she consistently did what she was asked to do. With a gentle slap to his shoulder area, she transitioned seamlessly into deep strokes, resembling the practiced technique of an experienced massage therapist. "Satisfied?" she asked, her expression turning slightly serious, a hint of a frown on her face. J

[Narrator's POV] Helios suddenly felt a strange feeling while he and Cordelia were on their way to the Lake, as if his nose felt so damn itchy. His gaze went back to Cordelia and how the female defender carelessly swayed her weapon as she hopped on their path without even thinking that she might hurt someone. It almost hit him, but then due to his fast reflexes, he managed to capture its handle. "Hey kid. Mind watching your spear?" Helios asked her, and then he let it go after she stopped hopping. Cordelia calmly pulled her spear away from his direction and faced him, "Sorry." She apologized and bowed her head. The spearhead nearly cut the skin on his face the moment Cordelia bent almost half of her body down. "Okay. Okay. Just keep going." He breathed. Helios couldn't help but let out a deep sigh because it seems like this woman will never learn how to be a woman, and then he suddenly remembers about Nowo. They quite had a few moments to share, but still reminiscing those made hi

[Nowo's POV] The air between us seemed to have cleared, or so I thought. Despite his apparent reluctance to engage in conversation, I held no regret for my response to his unexpected confession. I acknowledge that I chose to follow the rational path my brain paved instead of the emotional one my heart urged me to take. After all, what's amiss about making decisions based on what one knows to be right? Beyond the complexities of our interaction lies my profound love for Moha. It transcends the boundaries of mere friendship, companionship, or journey partnership; it extends to a deeper connection, an affection for him as a man. My decision not to reciprocate his confession stems from my desire to avoid the potential confusion and puzzles that can arise in a romantic relationship. How could I give my all to him if I, myself, am I grappling with internal incompleteness? As Moha and Talaa advanced a few meters ahead of us, his Stoic demeanor caught my attention. He neither tilted his hea

[Nowo's POV]A few minutes after the attack by the unknown creatures, I fell down and lost consciousness. I'm not even sure what kind of attack they executed that made me fall asleep. In addition to that, I am unaware if I was saved or not. Regarding Lane, I wonder if she was there with me back then. I can barely remember the moment we faced them and shouted for help, but when I fell down and roamed my eyes around to seek her, I failed to see her.The only thing I wish right before I completely shut both of my eyes is the safety of the rest of our team, including her, Talaa, and Moha."Nowo. Wake up." I heard another familiar voice echoing inside my mind, and when I finally opened my eyes, I saw nothing but the top view of the mountain and the land. My ears remained unable to hear any sounds from my surroundings."Am I flying?" I questioned myself.Maybe I wasn't fully recovered; that's why I wasn't able to hear any sounds. Then after a few seconds, I lost my consciousness again.Ther
