The Dragon'S Blue Gem
(S3) Chapter 145 [Nostalgic Feelings]
"That girl must be very important to you, huh."
I don't know why I said that.
Aqua nodded gently. To be honest it was hard to imagine an Aqua could do such a thing to a woman.
"You must have realized it. She is an angel, her name is. Just call her Mika," Aqua said after a brief pause.
"Mika. Who is he to you?" my many.
Ah, am I not supposed to ask that?
Sure enough, Aqua did not say anything. He just smiled. After slowly peeling the back of Mika's hand, Aqua walked towards me.
"It's time, let's go."
Well, instead I want her to tell me their relationship is that of an outsider. Just a little bit, I want him to be more open to me.
"All right."
We walked side by side to the dining room. There was no conversation between us after coming out of Mika's room. Aqua gave me a key, so I can visit Mika whenever I want. Doesn't Aqua trust me too much? Did he not think of the possibility that I would save the girl?
CKLEKKK
The dining room door opens. There, a long table and the 8 chairs surrounding it had been neatly arranged. Tableware, drinking, not forgetting the decoration has also been arranged symmetrically.
The innermost seat and the 2 facing seats on the left and right of the seat were empty. The outer most seat had been occupied by a handsome young man with red hair.2 adjoining seats on the right of the young man were occupied by twin beastskin women. And the 2 seats next to the left of the young man were occupied by the girl who had ushered me and the boy.
"Fufufu. You may be confused as to why we avoided that chair. In this house, everything is in its place. The empty seat already had its owner" said the pink-haired beastskin woman.
It was as if he could read my mind.
"Who is the owner?" my many.
Not yet had the woman replied, Aqua had already pulled out a bit of the innermost chair and was sitting quietly. His left hand patted the front desk of his left chair. He wanted me to sit there.
Seeing that the others did not protest, I decided to sit down first to eat.
"....... Is the chair in front of me Mika's?"
The others looked surprised. I forgot the fact that all I knew was that Mika was Aqua.
"really. The chair is Mika's chair" Aqua replied.
"So so..."
It's all in its place, huh. Usually the seat next to the owner of the mansion is a lover or his partner. Even if it's just a political engagement, I'm still her fiance. But Mika must be.. kind of Aqua's lover, right?
It was strange to see my body in love with a Hidden target. Hopefully none of this will cause any problems later.
"Before we start eating, why don't we allow ourselves?" haggling girl next to boy.
CLINGGG
Aqua rang the bell in front of her. "Can too. Waiting for the food to come."
"Alright, let's introduce ourselves circularly! Start with me!" said the girl.
His hands stretched out to his chest, "My name is Neelima, just call Eli. You must have never seen anyone like me. That's because I'm an ancient race that's almost extinct, Kynlaus. Technically we're immortal, but you can't really die."
Neelin... Eli. a pretty name. Kynlaus!? I thought they were only in fairy tales. Even in games, Kynlaus is almost never called. So that's why his skin is blue.
"Na-namu! Ah!! My name... Pietro. Pythro Chalcedony..."
Pietro's face flushed. His tongue was tweezered. He must be very embarrassed.
It's cute! This kid is so cute!! Pietro is not a member of Raven, he is famous thanks to himself. Why is he with Aqua now? What was unintentionally... Aqua met and saw her potential?
"I Feirlyx. Feirlyx Harley's. The others call me Lix, so can you. Since you are about to enter Mackenzie Academy as a noble, you better remember my name well because I am your senior!" said the red boy.
Wait up! What's up!? Feirlyx!? That famous informant (of the game) Fox!? Aqua's meeting with Fox should be at the Academy. Everything really changed.
The twin women next to Feir... Lix looked at me a little strangely.
"We are the daughters of the fenrir race who were born twins. My name is Elvira and she's my sister Elvina. What should I say yes. hmm. ah, maybe it's good that you know this. We are teaching professors from Mackenzie Academy," said the woman with soft purple hair.
"It's nice to meet you!!" connect the woman next to him.
Fenrir!?
In this world there is a race called beastskin, which is a race of humans and half animals. Most people, especially humans consider all half-animal creatures to be beastskin. But that's not true, in fact there is a higher level.
⟨ Spirit Beast ⟩
As the name suggests, this race is a half spirit and beast race. Of course the level is different from the beastskin. Spirits are creatures that produce mana and the reason magic can exist. Although they could not descend to Demetria directly, they could still form another form and stay in the world.
The form is divided into 3, namely "human", "animal" and "plant". Their human form was the ancestor of Saintess and Hero. The animal form was the ancestor of spirit beasts. The plant is the ancestor of the Dryad. Each of them held an incredible amount of magic power within them. However the resonance with the "Spirit Beast" was higher so that the race had great power and curse.
It is currently known to only a few subras that include spirit beasts. Examples include Kitsune, Fenrir, Dragonman, Nekomata, Unicorn, Pegasus, Moon Rabbit, Phoenix, etc.
I didn't expect to meet anyone other than Vashlana Magiya.
"But... Elvira Elvina's? I've heard of... But where?" my inner.
Now it's my turn to introduce myself.
"My name is Rubylia Arsilla, the fiancee of Prince Aquamarine. Our engagement is a contract engagement, so please don't misunderstand. In return for Aqua helping me solve the problems in the Empire, I will try to help her save that angel girl."
The others looked at me with a hard-to-understand expression. It feels like they want to say something, but it is not hearty or bad to say it. What's up, huh?
TOK TOK TOK
The door was knocked three times, after Aqua allowed it, the servants came with various foods. All of that in a neat arrangement on the table. None of them are unappetizing. Everything looks so delicious.
Strangely enough, there were 5 servants who entered. But they all have no physical form. Like a shadow in a servant's shirt. It bothers me a little...
After thanking Heolstor Erebus, Aqua ate the food. The others followed well. They all ate with light hearts. Aqua, Lix, Elvira and Elvina look so elegant. Eli and Pietro had difficulty eating with a fork and knife, so they cornered him.
This dinner is better than I thought. Despite eating, we chatted lightly.
"So you know each other because everything is related to the Academy?" my many.
Aqua answered me while cutting her steak meat. "really. Me, Eli and Pietro are going to the Academy this year, we've known each other for a long time. Brother Vira and Kak Vina are good teachers for us, it doesn't feel like the more we get to know the more familiar."
"And Lix..." Aqua stopped talking while glancing at Lix somewhat lazily.
"Why do you see me like that!?" pissed Lix.
"Ha~ahh's... Aqua and I have known each other since childhood. He helped me when I was in the alley by a bunch of assholes" he replied.
So there was such an incident huh. It's not always related to the game. Even without my intervention, the game's flow didn't work as it should.
The small talk continued even when the dinner was over. Unlike what I thought, they were pretty cool. Brother Elvira and Elvina are a little annoying.they also remind me of my sister (woman).
What makes me most nostalgic is Aqua and Neelima. When the two of them threw boos at each other, I was like...
Looking back when brother and sister Kirana had a fight because of trivial things.
"........"
Brother and sister Kirana...
