The Dragon'S Blue Gem
Chapter 27 [Cousin Aqua ]
"Ashura?"
Yue tilted his head in confusion.
"Aqua! What is ashura? Yue never heard," he asked.
"Byeah! You don't know Ashura!!?" surprised Lix couldn't believe it.
"If Yue knew, Yue wouldn't. Are you stupid?" pissed Yue.
"..... Ha~ah, Aqua please explain to him."
"Hahaha, okay. Yue, that Ashura is a creature that has the blood of a god, they are one of the rarest races in Demetria. The Ashura have the best human appearance. His men have a strong figure and his women are beautiful. Yet the biggest difference between Ashura and humans is the great physical strength they possess. Plus their appearance is a little different from humans, their skin is dark purple and their hair is very bright and most importantly because they are very big like giants" said Aqua.
"Aqua, Lix isn't strong! Plus not purple! Lastly, he's not handsome! How's different?" confused Yue.
Yue's words seemed to hit Lix with a cruel fact.
"That's because I'm not old enough!"
"So this is Yue, at first the Ashura Race had a human-like appearance. But when they grow up, they can change their shape like that."
"So so! Then later Lix if it's big can be like that?" ask Yue.
"..... Emm. I don't know. Lix said he was only half Ashura. It could be that the change is not perfect, it could be yes, too" Aqua replied rather hesitantly.
"No need to cover it. Just tell me the truth!" lix said casually.
"....... Yue, that not pure-blooded Ashura only had great strength and physical beauty alone. Ashura's giant form and appearance cannot be obtained by half Ashura."
"Why indeed? It's good that Lix remains Lix," Yue replied innocently.
Aqua and Lix were silent hearing it. They did not expect, Yue would respond like that. They smiled and simultaneously rubbed Yue's head happily.
"What's this for?" asked Yue whose hair was a mess.
"Mahaahaha."

TOK TOK TOK
The sound of the door being knocked stopped their laughter. Aqua asked for a moment because they had not changed clothes. Quickly, Aqua, Lix and Yue had already changed their formal clothes into their usual clothes.
Aqua opened the door in a hurry. He thought the person at the door was a guard or a servant. That's why he jolted because the person in front of him wasn't them.
Two Elves with dazzling looks and beautiful silver color hair. Aqua had already seen them earlier while in the throne room.
"Are you guys ready? Let's go!" Bring the Elf man.
"certain."
The five of them were on their way out of the palace, heading to a rather remote place in the Vittacelar Kingdom. On that trip, they introduced each other first.
"So you're Aquamarine! Can I call Aqua?" ask the Elf girl to be excited.
"Byeah," Aqua replied kindly.
"Because I'm older than you, call me Brother Rin, okay?!!" yells.
"Rin! That's not polite! If you want to introduce yourself, that's right!" firm male Elf.
"But brother! I always wanted to meet him. Do we have to do such a formal thing?"
"Should! We are the Royal Family, so before we get close we have to be polite first!!"
The man shook his head.
"Please forgive my sister."
"Ah, I don't mind that."
The two Elves fused their left index and middle fingers (the other fingers on the bend) then placed both fingers on their lips and slightly lowered their heads. It was the style of greeting the Elves.
"My name is Turquoise Caller El Vittacelar. First child of Princess Amethyst Callen El Vittacelar."
"While I'm Citrine Caller El Vittacelar. Second son of Princess Amethyst Callen El Vittacelar."
Aqua mimicked the movements of the two Elves in front of her.
"My name is Aquamarine. The first child of Sapphire Princess Vallen El Vittacelar."
Yue and Lix were silent in astonishment at the sight of the three Elves in front of them. Aqua nudged Lix and Yue's arms, hinting them to introduce themselves.
Lix somewhat flirted with imitating Aqua and introduced herself.
"Ahh.. My name is Feirlyx."
"The name Yue is Yue!" yue said excitedly.
All gazes headed to Yue instantly. Lix and Aqua panicked because of the behavior of this one child. But instead of being angry, Citrine laughed happily.
"What the fuck is this kid? The funny!! Hey, can I take her home?" ask Lix.
"Can't!!!" aqua and Lix replied quickly to the surprise of everyone.
Citrine thought that Yue was so loved that the two boys would not allow her to take Yue. But…
"What if Yue's identity is discovered and she is executed??!!!" panic Aqua.
What Aqua and Lix had in mind was completely different from Citrine's guess.
"Good, fine. Stop talking formally, okay! Like I said earlier, because I'm older just call me Brother Rin!" abugn.
"Aqua. He doesn't seem to be far from you, at least 3-4 years old" seduced Lix.
Aqua and Turquoise looked at Lix in disbelief. Turquoise smiled mockingly at Citrine.
"3-4 years he said.." his ridicule to make Citrine upset.
"?"
Aqua was confused to say or not, but in the end she said it too.
"Lix! Ci. Rin's sister is 48 years old."
Lix widened his eyes.
"48 YEARS?!!!"
"Aunt-aunt dong?!!!"
"It's not polite!!" angry Citrine while flicking Lix's forehead until red.
"For the Elf race, that age is still young. If humans are considered adults at 15 years old, Elves are considered adults at 50 years old. Elves can live up to 1000 years, after all" Aqua explained.
"Ukhh, I'm spontaneous to say, '" said Lix, touching his head.
"Aqua! Why are you friends with such a brash person!!" pissed Citrine.
"Ahaha, please forgive him brother. He's never met an Elf before."
Aqua kicked Lix's leg slowly.
"I'm sorry…"
"Ahahaha.it doesn't matter. Seeing Rin get angry is fun. Not only Rin, but I'm 74 years old" Turquoise said.
"74? Cool!!"
"Why is your reaction different when you hear I'm my age!?" angry Citrine.
The angry Citrine felt her skirt being pulled slowly by someone. She turned to the person who was pulling her skirt slowly, the sweet brown-wheat haired girl looked at her with a sparkling face.
"Sister Rin! Is Yue also allowed to call Kak Rin?" tanya Yue was pleased.
The damaged Citrine Mood was healed instantly seeing Yue's innocence. He smiled warmly.
"Call me to call me whatever you want."
"Unn! Thanks!"
Aqua was grateful Citrine seemed to like children. He stared intently at Lix who was actually putting them almost in trouble. Lix laughed awkwardly and apologized to Aqua.
Not feeling, they had walked quite far from the palace. Currently even the other Elf tree houses were already nowhere to be seen. They had already arrived in front of a gigantic tree that someone was living in.
"We're here! This is Mr. Alesta's house. I'm sorry but we can only get you here" Turquoise said kindly.
"No, this is enough. Thank you for driving us" Aqua replied.
Citrine and Turquoise waved their hands while leaving them, returning to the palace. The three children returned the wave until they were not seen.
"alright. It's time! We should be able to learn magic from this teacher!"
"Good!"
Lix suddenly recalled his secret conversation with Aqua earlier.
"I learned magic?"
"Yes! You will also come with me and Yue learns magic to Mr. Alesta."
"Why? I don't have element blessings!? He's the dark magic teacher, isn't he?"
"You have! Trust me. Although a little different from the others, you still have. Mr. Alesta is indeed a master of dark magic, but I'm sure he can teach you your unique magic element."
".... If you say so. Oh, come on, I'm coming."
