"Huh???"
"..................."
".........................."
"So... how about it?"
They are still looking at each other for 2 seconds, Hekmatyar clearly shocked about out of no where question... she still thinking that she was getting deaf for all the sleep...
"Umm... sorry..let me rephrase it again.. You want to adopt me into you're noble family?"
"Yes!! so?"
"Aaa.... .......why?"
Cyril warmly smiling at hekma.....
"To tell you the truth i was an orphan too... i watched my parents die at the hand of politics and greed... i know the feeling to left alone in darkness.... luckily, my grandpa still alive and save me from the darkness... he told me no one even god himself could be happy when they are lonely and without a purpose.... he take care of me, give me a purpose and friends.... and now i saw my past in you... a lonely girl grieving with sadness, without purpose.... that is why... i want to help you...."
"ah...."
hekma still cant bring herself to believe such a young age compare to her who lives millenia years has a great wisdom and compassion....
"and...?"
"...... you are really kind..............................sister...."
"Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..!! One more time please, say big sister!!!"
"Yes big sister....."
"Ufufufuufufufu yesss!!! Now.....FOR THOSE WHO EAVESDROPPING IN THE DOOR.. YOU GUYS CAN GO IN!!!"
Gajeel, Sera and Ryu'uk Barge in... Both cyril and hekma know some people eavesdroping outside.. they were so noisy.. if they did a spying mission, they failed horribly...
"Hahahaha we just pass by u know cyril hahaha.... anyway congrats Hekma.."
"Kyaaaa why so dramatic its make me cried wuaaaaaaaaaa!"
"Clam down sera.... cyril hekma.. Congratulation.."
"ah....Thank you everyone....."

Hekate Pov
ah.. i feel so relief.. it's been so long i has a good friends... now, after i accept cyril's propose to become her family... i feel content...
now we move downstairs at the bar.. laughing about how Ryu'uk was standing in line for so long until he realise he was at the wrong counter and he got sexual harrassment from another female adventurers... apparently she is a macho woman..
" seriously guys!!!! You can not believe how her muscle so much supplex even gajeel would looks like a woman compare to her!!!!"
"ya... WHAT!!! NOOO !!!! GUUUH "
" Hahahahhahahahah gajeel please dont be mad... even u become much like a woman when u sitting next to that macho woman... i still choose you hahahaha"
"hmmmm... hekma so... what did you mean about "choosing gajeeel" ehe...?"
"Oh my...... Gajeel you do has charm if you more woman like hahahahhaa"
Gajeel face becomes red he tried to counter the argument but losing his words....
after that we just talk about how we went to shoping and ice cream... apparently, when i show how i lick ice cream they were laughing and gajeel somewhat become red again... and cyril angry at sera.... and i dont know why... then Ryu'uk ask a serious question to cyril...
"hmm Now what will be doing next cyril?'
"of course give my adorable little sister a new name and purpose!"
"a... new name?"
"yep lil elf! when you adopted you must change your name... just think like a rebirth.. a new life!"
aah... i see... a new begining... a new adventure...a new name...but the past still a part of i am if can...
"if can.. can my name is hekate... so hekate zira'een..?
"Sure! but still need a middle name.. we nobles tend to has much more then 2 words on our name..."
"Icecream!! how about that!!!"
"hahaha i think a food name as middle name is not a good suggestion hahaha"
"Mahalaksmi...."
"Hmm gajeel thats sound beautiful and strong, what its mean?"
"it is our goddess name... Goddess of kindness and prosperity..."
"is it okay to use your race's goddess name?"
"it is fine...hekma"
"then its setelled! Your name from now on hekate mahalaksmi Zira'een!!"
"cheeeeeerrss!!!"
"cheeeersss!!!"
"thank you big sis... everyone.... thank you....."
"now what do you really Reeeeeeeeaaaaalllyyy want hekate!!!!!"
for a while i was silence........I think...about my brother's last word ...eternal peace....my dream..... i would enjoy this eternal peace you sacrificed to make.. and protect it.....
".......enjoy......adventure....to know a lot about this new world... traveling to another land...enjoying the new scenery....and protect it"
"Ufufufufufu u sure? become like us? it is hard you know.. but first you need to learn about this world first... and that is why you need to go to school!... i knew the best academy for you!!!"
"but cyril i think you forgot about the most important think..?"
"ahhh yes... you need to meet with my grandpa! be at ease he is kind just dont be a bad kid! fufufu"
but when she said that i could saw a glimpse of fear with ryu'uk and gajeel... thats strange...
"umm cyril could we just live at tavern when we go to your grandpa place?
"ughh ya i come with Ryu'uk"
"what??? No way we are family dont be shy.. i bet he misses you guys too!!"
"pffftttt.. ehheheehe"
"umm sera why they so scared and what so funny about it...?"
"you will see tomorrow hehehhe... cant wait tomorrow!!!"
"so grandpa house is near?"
"no lil sis.... we will use teleport stone to the capital city of Eiditch kingdom, Ethernia!!"
"so we need to sleep now.. it is already late and i already got permission from the guild, to use teleport stone..."
and thus, we go to our room and rest from this happy night and tomorrow..a new beginning..
_________________________________________________________________________________
Next day, in front of teleport stone of Asthor city
Before we arrived, we has problem about gajeel can not wake up.. he was still sleeping eventhough we already late for our party to go to teleport stone... apparently, gajeel sneakly came back to the bar and drink more beer last night. Cyril go to gajeel room, ask us to leave it to her and command us to go waiting downstairs.. however, before we walk down from the stairs i could heard gajeel scream so.. how i put delicately..womanly... and there are trace some mana inside gajeel room...
Now we walking in line waiting for our turn to cross the teleport stone. Gajeel has burn mark around his face and he seems can't even walk straight, i see a slight burn mark around his crotch.....i bet cyril's spell dont just aim on his head.... ughh.. my new sister kinda sadist...
Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.
"haaaah if we just arrived in time we would not need to que so long!!!"
Sera furiously can't stand to stay and fidgeting her hands....
"Oh well... at least gajeel pay for his mistakes...."
Ryu'uk glance gajeel with a pity look on his face....
"Ughh hrmmm.... arghhh..."
everytime gajeel move he would wail in despair a little
"are you okay gajeel do u need help?"
"Hek... let him be, he deserves it... oh its our turn"
Then we are called... I see five big gates consist of 3 big stones and every gates circling around 1 blue crystal that flowing with alot of mana.... that crystal....
In my time we used that crystal privately to teleport us to one designed place we called teletu... every teletu has 1 designed place to teleport to.... and we needed a small chunk of it.. but now that blue crystal is big and the mana from it connect it to every big gates....
"cyril is it all five gates designed to one place?"
"ah... no lil sis.. every gate were going to their own designed place.. so eiditch kingdom has five major city.. and each major city has teleport stone..."
oh.. so now they has a new method to change the course of teleport.... thats interesting....
Thus we are in front of one of the gate....
"Hek... dont be suprissed when you feel a bit neusea after u cross the gate..okay?"
"Yes thank you for the heads up ryu'uk"
"let me first"
Cyril go to cross the gate then Sera
"Lallala come in"
"It is your turn hek... "
"Ok ryu'uk"
Then i walk cross the gate... i felt nostalgia feeling... has been so long since the last time i teleport....
Then a grand view comes after i teleport.... the city is so big much much bigger then asthor... the road is paved and there are a lot of small statues in every side and intersection of the road...
Many people come and go doing their own bussiness... There are various races.However, human race much more dominated the population... such a busy city... Many houses around but i could see much bigger house in the far north from here,surrounding two grand big castle.. then i look to the east there is a big house with many coloured glasses as its wall surrounded by many big statues... and in the west i could see a lot of big houses circling around...
"GROOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH........"
i jump a little, suprissed by the loud noises in the sky, i look up and there are two no... four big siluettes... each of it looks like a castle but on the end of it there are many big tubes... they are flying across the city....
"a flying castle?"
"no you silly.. that is an air ship.... it is an air transportation for noble and royal family... its soo fancy eh?"
while sera explaining it to me... Ryu'uk shouting at us..
" Guyssssss!!!! lets get going don't just stare there,like a statue come!! you will disturb others to use teleport stone!!!!!"
Now we steps down from the teleport stone and argue a bit with the people who works there because we make a jam in the que...ooops....
after that all, we go to the north....
"so.. cyril... where is grandpa house?"
"......................"
"............"
"umm "big sis" where is our grandpa house?"
"YESSS?? oh there in the north from here... near royal palace.. you will love the place.. grandpa couldn't wait to see you!"
For a while we walk through sea of people... i could sees the changes scenery... the farther we move to the north the more beautiful houses and garden....the paved road changes too... from simple white paved road to beautiful carved road... and soon we face a small but beautifully carved wall with many guards....
"Hold! this is a noble area please state your purpose.."
" Hai sir Dan! how are you!"
Cyril start to walk leisurely to the guards... it seems they know each other...
"aaah LADY Zira'een!!! how are you! Its been so long... and i presume the gentlemans and the ladies are the famed Charges?"
"fufufufu.. yes we are... please could you open the gate its been a while i am coming home..."
"certaintly!... YOU LOT OPEN THE GATE NOW!!!!!! DONT JUST STARE THERE!!!!
after dan said the charges many guards were coming out from their post and stare at us...
"hmph! see hek we are awesomely famous!!! hehehehehe"
"Just don't show a lot of your pitiful smug sera! it makes your "refreshing pretty girl" persona into a cocky donkey"
" HEIIIIIIIIiiiii! Ryu'uk!!!!!"
We walk a little then we arrived at a big white house with big garden at front.... there are gate which guarded by 1 guard...
"Ken!! how do you do!!!!"
"ah sir ryu'uk?... and Lady cyril!!! we have been expecting you... old master has been waiting since you send notice yesterday..."
" I see.. then we will meet him! cyaa ken"
now we cross the garden... many big trees surrounding the small road into the house... the trees protect us from any sun light so it feels so cool and relaxing.... suddenly, we welcomed by a loud sound opening door... a big muscular guy almost like gajeel running at us... he has a short gray hair with long beard surrounding his mouth until his upper body... the most weird is, he has a long white eye brow hair. however he has a piercing green eyes same as cyril and also a bunny ear... kinda weird to see muscular strong looking grandpa with a bunny ear...
"My lovely cyrillaa!! Oh myy... please hug your grandpa..!!!"
"grandpa!! "
They were hugging for a while and..
"its been a while sir regulus" both ryu'uk and gajeel salute with respect and... a little fear?"
"Hmph.... you looks more stronger now eh... after this we could spar a bit !"
"auuuuu...ye yes sir!"
"uncle regulus how are yaaaa!!!!!"
"oh my miss sera you more pretty as ever... hahahaha oh... so this is my new lovely grand daughter of mine!!!"
"ahh hmm ye yes my name is.. ack"
suddenly he is hugging me tightly and crying...
"waaah.. poor girl... hiks.... i will always protect you from now on!! such a cute girl you are.... be at ease now...... your super hero grandpa will always be with you"
"ermmmm......."
