Changing Perspective --- Kori
Master told me to gather people. So I had done and I expected him to pat my head again.
However, it was so hard.
“Tell me. Kori-chan. Where is White-sama? Pyon~”
“I –”
“No, tell me instead mee~. Kori-chan. Where is White-sama?”
“Wait, I –”
“Kori-chan. Shampa-Onee-chan give you candy, so come here and tell me quietly about where White-sama had gone to.”
“Just wait for minute, Sly snake. What do you think you’re doing, Pyon~!?!”
“Yeah, where do you think you can take Kori-chan to? Come back here mee~”
Muu – let’s me answer. Don’t push me around!
“Tsk! Going Pyon~ Pyon~, Mee~ Mee~. Aren’t you tired? White-sama isn’t even here, and you’re going all cheesy. I’m sick of hearing it, you know? It’s creepy.”
“As if you can say!! Going Nya Nya the first time you see him. Know some shame!”
“Heh? Shame? What do you about shame? It’s funny coming from the slut who jumped at him in every chance.”
Ano – didn’t you guy asked me a question?
“Hah! So what?! At least I have the sex appeal.”
“HAHAH! He brushed you off, but he kissed me in front of everyone!!! HOW’S THAT?! HAHAHAHA!”
“I know he was treating you that time! I know too well, but what’s with feeling of defeat??! Damn! However, it’s fine. I’ll overlook some accident like this. I’m a big heart person after all!”
“You’re trembling, you know Pyon.”
“Oh yeah. I got you! Gosa. We’re the same, right?”
“Well, Actually. I was princess carried by him. Sorry, Pyon!”
“You Traitor! I hate both of you. Uwaaa~”
“Hahahahahah! Let’s ignore her. Kori-chan. And tell me where White-sama is. Hmm?? Kori-chan?”
I ignored her and walked toward Karara. I patted her head, and then she turned to me while tears falling from her face.
Muu – Karara is like a child. She’s always cry to every little thing related to Master.
Gosasa and Shampapa are bully, so I won’t tell them. I’ll tell Karara instead.
“Kori-chan!”
*Sob*
“Karara. Master call you to meet him in his room.”
*Swoop*
Karara revived and hold me tight.
“Really? Is that really true??!! Mee~ White-sama really called for me??!! What did he say? Did he say he miss me?? Mee~”
“He didn’t say anything.”
“Umumu! He must want me to hear that by himself!! White-sama!! I’m coming~”
*Fishu*
Like that, she dashed off while leaving a trail of smoke behind.
“Ano, Kori-chan. What about me? Did master white said anything to Shampa Onee-chan?”
*Hmph*
I ignored her and turned away. I won’t talk to bully! Hmph!
“Uwaa~ you’re so cute. Kori-chan. I’m so love you!! Waaa!”
Shampapa came and hugged me. She started swinging me around. Waaaa~ it’s like flying!!
“Say tell Onee-chan, ok?! What did Master White say?”
Hmph! Don’t think that you can fool me with this.
“Hmm… you won’t talk? Let’s see how long you can hold.”
She started swinging me again. Waaa~ it’s fun. Let’s do it again!!
In the end, I ended up telling Shampapa and Gosasa. They had a strange glint in their eyes. Muu~ they’re gonna bully Karara again, I’m sure.
After that, I started looking for other people. Master said to gather everyone, but who should I gather? Muu~ I can’t think of anyone at all.
Master said that when I don’t know about what to do, I should ask TinTin. Let’s look for her.
*Tatatata*
Running is fun. Master’s house is really big. I can run all day without running into dead end. Ever since, I can turn into a human like Master, I began to think more, talk more, feel more and run more!
Oh no, I’m getting too excited. I’ll almost forgot my mission. I have to find TinTin. However, where is she?
*Tatatata*
*Tatatatata*
*Tatatata*
Hahahaha. It’s fun running in this place. I can run on the wall and ceiling however I want!!
Oh there’s a stair. Let’s do the stunt that Aja-nii showed me before. I began running faster, and then I flipped myself few time, and when I reached on the stair, I made a jump and I somersault and span myself in the air.
I landed safely on the ground.
“Kyaaa~”
Arh~ I didn’t know someone is on the stair. This is bad. TinTin and Baka is going to scold me again. Let’s ask her to keep it a secret.
I turned around, and my fear is gone. The girl is my friend.
“Lily-chan! Are you alright?”
“So it’s you. Kori-chan. I thought a big cat was jumping over me.”
“It’s no cat. It’s my stunt! Want me to do it again?”
“It’s fine. It’s fine. Kori-chan. You don’t have to do it again.”
“Lily-chan. Where are you going?? Let’s go together!”
“Hmm! Ok! I’m going to bring this to my dad.”
“What’s this?”
“It’s bandage. It’s used to cover wound and stopped the bleeding. Dad and other uncle have a lot of injury in their training.”
“Wound?? Then let’s ask Master to treat it. Sparkle Sparkle and wound’s gone!”
“Hehe~ I saw how White-sama treated me and Shampa-nee. It’s really amazing. However, since this is just a small stuff. I don’t want trouble White-sama over something like this”
“It’s nothing. It’s alright. Master is kind and he loves helping people so it’s fine. Let’s go to Master right now.”
“No, Kori-chan. It’s not ok. My dad said that he already saved us and gave us a place to live. So it’s not right to impose on him anymore.”
“Complicated thing, I can’t understand. All I know is that Master can do anything!”
“Hmm! I think so. There’s nothing White-sama can’t do.”
We laughed and walked together toward the training ground. Hmm~ I feel I’m forgetting something. I can’t think of it.
Whatever! Let’s go and ask TinTin later!
After awhile, we reached the training ground.
“DAD!”
“DAD!”
Lily and I ran toward the old man in light armor.
“Oh. Hahahah~ hearing you calling me like this. I feel like I have 2 beautiful daughters hahahahah! But, wouldn’t White-sama angry if you call me like this?”
“Hmm? Why?”
“Hahaha. A father would always protect his daughter. And a father have his own pride. When his daughter call other father, he would be angry!”
Father? I don’t have something like that. Master created me after all. Then Master is my father?? Would he be happy if I call him Dad? Let’s try later!
And so I nodded to the Lily’s dad. He laughed once again. I wondered why people always laughed and smiled so happily when they see me. Is it because of master? It must be!
“Dad. Muu~ look how badly you’re wounded again. Do you believe that I won’t treat you next time? Hmph!”
“Hahah I’m sorry. My dear. It’s just small scratch, but I’ll promise you to not overdo it again.”
“Muu~ always, empty promise! Do you know how many time is it now?”
“Hahahah~ my daughter is so kind and forgiving. So she wouldn’t be mad at the old man. Right?”
“Hmph! I don’t care!!”
“Hahaha!”
Lily acted like she doesn’t care, but I wondered why she is so happy.
“Orlando.”
“Oh, Baron-sama”
“Stop that. I’m not the Baron anymore. Pristin is the Baron now.”
“Hahahah. It’s my old habit. I couldn’t never thought that Ojou would become the Baron and most of all inherit the Heart of Venolia.”
“Fate is a mysterious thing after all. Even I never thought she was the one who save everyone as well and to found such a powerful ally.”
“Certainly.”
The old man is talking to a man with blue and white hair. I remembered him being near TinTin all the time. What was his name again?
“Pantsu!”
“Pericel! How many time have you mistaken my name for? Kori-chan.”
“So it’s Pericel!”
“Hmm! Good girl! You got it right. So how is White-sama? Is he fine living alone? If there’s anything he need, I can order some maid to serve him.”
“I don’t know. Ask Master yourself. Pericel. Where is TinTin?”
“TinTin? You meant Pristin, right? That’s a cute nickname. I’ll maybe start using that as well. Well, if you’re looking for her, I can take you there.”
“Really?”
“Yeah, I’m on way to flirt her as well. So let’s go together.”
“Hmm!! Thank you! Lily, old man! Bye bye!”
“Have a nice trip, Kori-chan.”
Lily waved to and the old man also bid me farewell.
Pericel talked to me and asked things about Master. However, I could only answer some of them. I don’t understand some of them at all. Talking about master, I feel like he asked me to do something. What was it again?
Whatever. When I asked TinTin, I’ll know.
*Knock* *Knock*
“Come in.”
It’s TinTin’s voice.
“TinTin”
“Ara, Kori-chan. How rare? Did you come to see me?”
“Hmm!!”
“Ufufu~ How cute. Come, I’ll have some snack for you.”
Yay! Snack!
“TinTin”
Pericel appeared from the door and called TinTin. Muu~ A copycat! TinTin froze when she heard that, and she shivered all over her body.
“What are you doing, Pericel-nii-sama? Calling me like that out of nowhere?!!”
“Did you surprise??! I thought it was a pretty good name. Don’t you think so Kori-chan?”
“Copycat! Hmph!”
“hehe. So Pericel-nii-sama is copycat. Copycat is no good. Only Kori-chan can call me like this, right? Kori-chan.”
“Hmm! Copycat is no good!”
We stuck out our tongue at Pericel at the same time. Seeing the dejected Pericel, we both laughed silently.
“Hohohoho~ brat, you came again.”
I heard some annoying voice in my head. It’s the necklace-san on TinTin. It’s so cheeky when it’s just a necklace! It always tease me, so I don’t like it at all. Hmph, let’s ignore it. Master always ignore annoying thing.
“Did you think it through of what I told you? So what’s your answer?”
Think of what? Kori doesn’t remember at all.
“Tsk. You must forgot what I said, right?”
Kuh! How can you be so cheeky! You’re just a necklace!!
“An insect to be able to shapeshift, work under my successor, I can make you a splendid entomomancer.”
Hmph! Kori belong to Master and Master only!!
“Hah! I admit that saint is strong. However, he can’t possibly make you strong. I can help you.”
Kori is angry! How dare you say that to Master?
“Cheeky! Cheeky! Cheeky!...”
I repeated that word and then I hit the necklace on TinTin’s breast.
“HOOOO! Kori-chan. I’m seeing what you’re doing right now, but what’s kind of game is it you’re playing with Pristin’s 2 golds like that??!! It’s too destructive, I’m feeling blood rushing my head.”
“Kyaa! Wait. Kori-chan. What’re you doing?!! And Pericel-nii-sama, Don’t look!!!”
*Blood Spill*
“Pristin…. It’s more destructive…… than I ever imagine. Nii-sama never regret it…”
*Collapse*
“Pericel-nii-sama??!!”
Arh. Pericel’s down. Muu~ this always happened when I’m hitting that cheeky necklace. I know I shouldn’t do that, but that necklace is so cheeky!
Muu~ this is troublesome. What am I doing here again?
TinTin has already went to check Pericel. He’s down, but I wondered why he’s looking so happy. Is it good or bad? I don’t know. TinTIn is busy now, I should leave them alone. Master said so.
I walked out of the room, but then I don’t where else to go. What should I do? I looked and thought for awhile. And then I feel restless in my feet. Ever since, I become human like master. This always happened when I’m standing. Still, I can’t run. I need to remember what I need to remember.
Muu~ Muu~ Muu~
Whatever!! Let’s run!!
*tatatatata*
Stair!!
Tou! (Jump)
Safe landing!
It’s two ways. Left or right?
Muu~ RIGHT!
*tatatatata*
It’s people. Greeting!
“Hello!”
“Ara~ Kori-chan. Are you running again?”
“Hai!”
“Take care and be careful ok?”
“Hai. Good bye.”
*Tatatata*
Arh! It’s open room. What should I do?
PEEK!
Sorry for intrusion~
Hmm? This sound~ Fight? No good! Must stop!
*Tatatatata*
This is bad. Aja-nii is fighting against a walking armor and he is being cornered.
Must help! Battle Station!
With a thought, the dress I had changed into a dress suited for battle, and then my whole body is covered in pale blue mist. This is my skill. This skill is very useful and strong. When master and Baka fought with a group of bad men, I helped! I saved Baka many times. I also broke that strong old man sword with this skill.
With this skill, I’m not going to lose! Like Baka, I’m going to save Aja-nii!
“Reinforcement!!”
“?? Hah? Kori-chan?”
Aja-nii is surprise. The walking let out a strange sound and it stood still too. This is my chance!
Tou!
“Wait!”
“Kori don’t listen to enemy! Kori attack!”
The walking armor is trying to fool me. Fat chance! Take this.
Hiyaah!!
*Clang*
Hard! and it’s tingling! Why didn’t my kick work? I saw master did the same with the little flying demon before, but he sent it flying and it was so cool. Why can’t I do the same? What’s missing?
Muu~ don’t think! Enemy ahead. Attack again. Take this.
*Clang* *Clang* *Clang* *Clang* *Clang*….
It didn’t work. All of them didn’t work at all. Why? That armor is only avoiding and not attacking as well. What’s going on?
What’s should I do? Enemy is too hard. What did master said?
Muu~ OH! The floor! Slippery time! Take this.
I used a magic I just learnt before to freeze the floor. The walking armor slipped down. Chance!
Tou!
“Wait! Kori! It’s me.”
Muu~? This sound. Similar!
The armor take off the head? Oh! It’s not the walking armor. It’s –
“Baka!!”
I jumped into her embrace.
“Waa~ I was really surprise. Kori-chan is really strong. I can’t handle your speed as well.”
“It’s also Baka’s fault! Why Baka is wearing this? Is Baka a baka? I almost attack you!”
“You already did! I already tell you to stop many times.”
“You can’t blame Kori-chan for that, Shifun-san. It’s normal to focus on the fight. Enemy might try using distraction, so it’s important not to fall in it. I worked as an assassin before so I trust my gut to make decision. I was surprise to see that Kori-chan is a natural born for it.”
Gut? I looked at my belly and touch it. What’s my belly has to do with fighting? As usual, I don’t understand what Aja-nii said. It’s better for him to show me! Like the stair.
“I’m sorry. Aja-kun. Our sparring got interrupted. Kori-chan just jumped out of nowhere, I was really surprise.”
“Well, it’s couldn’t be helped. Sooner or later, I’ll lose. I don’t have lasting stamina like knight anyway. So Kori-chan came to save me in time. Thank you. Kori-chan.”
Aja-nii said and patted me. It feels good, but not as good as master!
“Since Kori-chan is so strong. Let’s come and do it again next time all together.”
“Fighting is no good. Master said so!”
“Hmm, it’s not really fighting. It’s like playing.”
“Playing? Ok!!”
“Hahahaahah. Kori-chan is so cute.”
Baka said and embrace me harder. I hugged her back, but the armor is really too hard.
“Muu~ I can’t accept this. Baka’s armor is too hard. What is it?”
“Hmm. I don’t know too. I don’t know how I get it too. Maybe White-san gave it to me.”
Master? Yeah. It’s sound right. Master is kind and he gave weapon to other and Pericel.
“Wait a minute. Shifun-chan. Are you saying that this armor is the magic armor that White-sama gave you? And you’re using in this spar?? How can I win??!!”
“There’s no rule in it.”
“Use your common sense!”
“Well, why don’t you also use the magic dagger that White-san gave you as well. If you used that, then it’ll be fair.”
“Why would I use that?? It’s just sparing, you know??”
“Because it’s sparing, that’s why I go all out. it’s about respect for your opponent, you know!”
“Don’t try to gain advantage over that reason. You’re just cheating, and you’re not admitting it you know!!”
“I didn’t cheat. You never set a rule or anything.”
“YOU!”
“Hmm. Baka, Aja-nii. What’s going on. Kori doesn’t understand. Are you fighting?”
I asked them since they were arguing. I didn’t forget to tilt my head a bit to the side because Master said it is best to stop a fight like this.
“Ahaha~ it’s not like that. Kori-chan. We’re not arguing. Aja-kun is just being silly.”
“Yeah, it’s not fighting. Kori-chan. It’s just a spar?”
If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.
“Spar?”
“It’s like training. You and your partner fight to improve each other.”
“hmm. Spar, get stronger?”
“Well. That’s right. The stronger your opponent is, the faster you might get stronger as well.”
Amazing! I didn’t know that. I should tell master about this! And then we later have a spar!
Come to think of it, master seem to ask me to do something. Muu~ what is it again. I can’t remember~
“What’s wrong Kori? Why are you making face like that?”
“Master seemed to ask me to do something, but I can’t remember what it was. Baka, can you help me?”
“Hmm!!! I’ll help you since you’re too cute!!”
Again, I wondered why people like to hug me like this. Who care, it felt good too.
“Lets see. Aja-kun. What do you think?”
“Don’t ask me!”
“Who can I ask?!”
“Why me? How can I understand someone like him? I can’t understand his thinking at all. It’s too mystery and scary. To be honest, I haven’t gotten used to that night yet. Looking at him, I felt cold all over my spine, and I couldn’t move at all in his presence. In front of that demon, I can struggle to move, but in front of White-sama, I just gave up. I felt like I had seen the real demon incarnation. And this is sort of the feeling I had.”
Aja-nii said while looking down. He was talking about that night. I was scared as well. When I tried to speak to him in his mind. Something dreadful tried to evade my mind. It was too scary!
“You’re right. I think everyone is affected by that night. The lucky one are the people that he save afterward. They didn’t witness anything. At first, I was scared out of my wits as well. But then I spend time thinking about it. He did save us after all. And looking at his expression, I wonder what kind of dream that he went through. He had always been smiling, positive and mischievous. That’s what I like about him. He always risk himself to save other, like a hero out of the fairy tale.”
“Hohohoho~ I think I just heard an unrequired love confession.”
“What!! The hell, Aja! What’s the hell are you talking about?? T-t-t-t-that’s not true!!! It’s not something like that. I just felt respect and look up to him!”
“Hahahah~ what’s the harm? It’s natural to fall someone like that. My 3 sisters are head over heels for him. You won’t believe what they are doing at night. They always – ”
“WAIT STOP!! I don’t want to hear it!!”
Baka stopped Aja-nii from speaking. Why? I was interested as well. Muu~ it seems that I have to visit Karara, Shampapa and Gosasa at night. I wondered if they had any snack for me.
Suddenly, there is a large tremor on the ground as if the land is about to break.
“Kyaaa!”
“ArrG! What’s the hell is going on??”
Seeing that both of them lost their footing. I used my magic to plant myself firmly on the ground and grabbed both of them.
‘Kori. Take care of everything and I’ll tell Tilan to return as soon as possible.’
Master??? Is that you?? Where are you??
‘Don’t worry. Yuichi is going to help me a bit. Tell everyone that also.’
Master?? Why? Where are you going??
‘I’m going to save bell. Hurry up and bring everyone to my chamber. Tilan will handle the rest.’
Master??!! Master!!
I called out to him, but I no longer felt his presence. Our connection was snapped and suddenly, I felt the darkness. It was as if that he had gone far away.
Why? Where did master go? Why didn’t master take me with him? Why? We always had been together. Master~
Is he going to leave me? No, Master. Don’t leave me. Kori doesn’t like this feeling.
For some reason, water is coming from my eyes, and I can’t stop it. What’s this feeling?
And then, the tremor stopped. I dropped both of them started wiping the water in my eyes.
“Kori-chan. What’s wrong? Why are you crying?? Are you hurt somewhere?”
Baka hurriedly hugged me and wiped the flowing water on my cheeks. So this is crying. I don’t like this feeling at all. Every time I think of it, my chest swelled up and I can’t stop the water from flowing from my eyes.
“Baka. Baka. Master is going away. Master is leaving Kori behind. What should Kori do??”
I choked on my word when I’m trying to speak. It’s hard. Crying is hard and bad. I don’t like it at all.
“It’s not true. Kori-chan. White-san isn’t going to leave you. There is no way that he is going to leave you.”
“But why didn’t master take me with him? He said that he is going away, but he didn’t want to take me with him!! So he is leaving Kori. Uuuuuwaaaaa!”
“Wrong. Kori-chan. That’s not true at all. White-san love you like a daughter. There is no way he would leave you. It must be dangerous, that’s why he didn’t bring you. Remember that night, he must been mad because that demon hurt you, that’s why he went rampage. He must not want you to get hurt again.”
Baka comforted me and I can feel better. The water had stopped flowing already. I thought about that night, and I was really scared. So master was mad because of me. It must be true. Master promised that he won’t show that face again. Master must not want me to get into danger again.
However –
“Baka, what should I do?”
“Hmm. If you’re feeling sad, then try to imagine White-san face. If you see his smile or laughter, I think you will feel better again.”
Master’s smile, master’s laughter. I thought hard, and then I remember the first that he held me up. He opened his eyes wide and checked me. And then he laughed and swing me around. It was fun. That time was also the first time I got my name as well.
Thinking about that moment, I felt better and I can smile again. I can smile big like master!
“Hmm!! I get it! I’ll think of Master when I’m crying! Then I’ll stop crying!”
When master come back, I’ll make him pamper me. It’s the revenge for making feel crying!
“Hmm. Good Girl!”
“Hmm. Sorry to break your mother and daughter moment –”
“Who’re you calling mother?!!! I’m still young!”
“That tremor earlier –”
“Don’t ignore me!”
“–must have scared a lot of people. I bet that some people will hurt as well. So I suggest to go and check everyone.”
“You’re right. Let’s go and check on everyone.”
“Wait!”
As Baka and Aja-nii was about to go. I stopped both of them and told them about what Master told me.
“Ok. I get it. I’ll inform Pericel-sama and Pristin-sama real quick. I leave other important personal to you, Shifun-san. After I informed them, I’ll go and checked everyone situation. If it’s not grave, I’ll be back in White-sama chamber ASAP.”
“I understand. Let’s do that.”
Aja-nii said, and then he disappeared like smoke. It was cool. He was so fast, I barely saw him. After that, Baka took me by hand and ran toward Master’s room. Baka said that we should contact other, but then it was unnecessary because everyone is heading toward Master’s room as well.
While running, we ran into Lily and her dad. Lily’s dad ask Baka while taking lily by hand as well. Lily seemed scared as well, but I comforted her like Baka did to me. When I said to imagine Master’s smile. She turned red. I wondered why.
“The Saint Beast is acting strange. Do you know anything about? Shifun-san?”
The old man asked Baka. I wondered why everyone call Yuichi, ‘Saint Beast’.
“I don’t know as well, but White-san had given an order to gather in his chamber.”
“I see. White-sama is alright. I thought the saint beast went uproar because something happened to White-sama. Did he has something to tell us?”
“No, apparently he has gone away.”
“Then, who will give us explanation?”
“I don’t know as well. Kori-chan said that she need to gather everyone in White-san’s chamber, and then Lanlan will handle the rest.”
“Who is this Lanlan?”
“Imouto!”
I answered the old man immediately. He replied ‘I see’ and added that Lanlan must be beautiful and cute like me. Well, Lanlan is beautiful, but she is bad. Master got angry because of her many times. While talking and running, we reached Master’s chamber.
There are a lot of people inside already. When we get there, everyone turned to Baka and asked her of what is going on. They all had the same idea like the old man. They were worried that something must have happened to master for Yuichi to act that way. Master said that they are good guys, I see that they really good guys.
At last, everyone all came, and we were all waiting for Lanlan. Aja-nii also came back reporting that no one got hurt. It’s a relief. If Yuichi hurt someone, Master would have been sad. He saved them after all. I wondered if he felt crying as well.
Bored with waiting, I played with lily and other kids. And then suddenly, I felt Lanlan presence.
Lanlan, is that you??!!
I called out to her immediately.
‘WA!! Is that Kori-chan?? You surprise me! How did you do that? Master White also did the same! How could he and you get into my mind so easily?’
I know how to do that. Even Yuichi know how to do it.
‘I see. Then I’ll trouble you to teach me later on.’
Enough of that. Hurry up back! Everyone is waiting for you!
‘huh?? Everyone? Who everyone? What do you mean?’
I explained to her what’s going on.
‘WHAT!!! MASTER WHITE SAID THAT??!! DAMN THAT GUY!!! &^%*^&ZX%*C^&’
I wondered why Lanlan shouted at me. Is she mad? I don’t understand that. I listened and she is still saying something I don’t understand. I’m bored of waiting so I urged her.
Anyway, hurry up back. Everyone is waiting for you.
‘Even if you ask me that. I don’t know what to – arh! Wait a minute. I have an idea now. Since Master White asked me this anyway, I can’t refuse. Ufufufufufu~’
She is laughing creepily inside my mind. She is acting bad again. I bet that she must have a bad idea!
‘I’m coming now. Tell that I’m coming.’
I told everyone that she is coming, and everyone seemed happy about it. They were anticipating for Lanlan. Some people can’t wait to see how cute Lanlan is.
Muu~ don’t be fooled, you know. Lanlan is bad!
Suddenly, the window burst opened. Someone flew inside and floated above everyone. I sensed that it was Lanlan, and I was happy to see her again. However, when I saw her, I was shocked. I mean, she smelled like Lanlan, but who is she?
“Lanlan??!! That’s Lanlan?? That’s Kori-chan’s imouto??!!”
“Angel!”
“It’s really an angel!!”
“It’s strange. I think she’s the one-san instead!”
“The heck, is she even White-sama daughter? He looked so young!”
“In anyway, she’s damn beautiful”
“Mama, Angel!”
Everyone made an uproar the moment they saw her. The smell-alike Lanlan now has long white hair, a beautiful child-like face with crimson eyes like mine. She wore white dress that is similar to mine, and the important thing is the wings behind her back. They are pure white and have feather like chicken wings rather than her normal wings.
Muu~ she must have used that skill to change the way she looked.
Lanlan descended down from the sky and then she retracted her wings.
“Everyone. Sorry to have you waited for a long time. My name is Lanlan and I am the third daughter of White-sama.”
After she said, everyone made an uproar again.
Muu~ she even changed her voice. She must up to no good. I mean, she is currently laughing creepily inside her mind and said pathetic human are too easy. As I thought, Lanlan is very bad!
As I wanted to tell everyone about her, Aja-nii stepped forward and then he arrived in front of Lanlan. Hmm? What is he doing? He looked serious. Did he notice that Lanlan is a demon?
“Lanlan-san. No, Lanlan-chan. The moment I saw you. I felt that I have known you before.”
This is bad. Aja-nii must have noticed her. I can feel that Lanlan is in a panic.
“I t-t-t-think you are misunderstanding. We – ”
“Wait, please lets me finish. The moment I saw you. I know that you are the one!”
“I a-a-a-a-am??”
This is bad. I can sense that Lanlan wanted to run away. She is breaking cold sweat right now. I should help her!
“So – ”
Aja-nii said and then he bow down to the ground.
“– IT’S A LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT!! PLEASE MARRY ME!”
Huh?
Everyone is like me. We were speechless. And then the silence’s over. Everyone caused an uproar again.
“Damn you!! Why are you making a move on our angel??!!”
“That was cool bro!! Fight for it byon!!”
“That’s unfair!! Making a move like that!!”
“Damn, popular guy! I wish lightning strike you here and now!!”
“Kyaa!! It’s a proposal!!”
“Hohohoh! Young sure is lively. It’s remind me of my time.”
“Angel Lanlan, don’t accept him. Please reconsider. There’s a lot more better guy than him.”
“Shut the hell up!! I didn’t ask any of you. If you make another sound, believe or not, I will kill you!”
Aja-nii shouted and released his killing intent. Everyone shut up and he went back to the ground waiting for Lanlan’s answer.
Lanlan recovered from her shock a minutes late, and then she held her put her hand on her mouth and looked away. Water even come out of her eyes.
“Maa. It’s troublesome. I was completely surprise by that. I’m happy for your thought and feeling, but I’m sorry that I can’t accept your proposal.”
Muu~ what’s with the fake acting and looks?? I feel the urge to kick her now. I wondered if Master felt the same way.
“I understand. But can I know the reason why you reject it?”
Aja-nii asked her in a firm voice. Lanlan turned back to him and everyone. She had water in her eyes, is she going to cry.
“How could I, a daughter enjoy the happy occasion like this when my father is in danger??”
Master?? Master is in danger?? Everyone was shocked by her as well. Everyone started to wonder and asked her about Master.
Lanlan made everyone stopped with her hand.
“Today, the reason, my father had request all of you presence is because he needs your help. My father is being trapped in Topel because they use our relative as hostage.”
She said that, and everyone made an uproar again. This is bad. Master is in danger! I need to save him.
“This mission will be a dangerous one. I won’t force anyone for it. However, please I implore you to save my father and free the army of the Venolia that is held captive inside Topel as well.”
Lanlan bowed to everyone. Everyone was quiet, but then everyone stomped the ground. It got louder and louder as everyone got into the same rhythmed.
“FOR WHITE-SAMA!!!! FOR VENOLIA!!”
Everyone shouted the same thing, and I can feel that everyone is really worried about Master. A certain feeling welled up inside my chest as well, but it was different from crying. It’s like happiness!
Lanlan is crying, and then she held her mouth. I’m confused. Is she really crying? It looks real. However, I changed my mind because I heard she was laughing inside her mind saying that it’s a revenge on Master.
Muu~ I know it. She is really bad!
“Thank you. I, Lanlan. No. We the sole survivor of the lost kingdom ‘Jade Chrysanthemum’ thank you from our heart.”
Lanlan said something weird. Jade Chrysanthemum, it’s the first time that I heard it. I wondered if Master really came from that place, but knowing that it came from Lanlan, I decided to ignore it.
Muu~ when Master come back, she is going to be in a big trouble.
“For Father-in-law!!! Come on, you guy!! Let’s fight!!!”
Aja-nii is having a strange look in his eyes. He is more fired up more than usual. Karara, Shampapa and Gosasa are assessing Lanlan.
“Daughter. It’s a relief. Not a rival. Mero~”
They all nodded at the same time.
“Everyone!! I thank you, but let’s waste no time. Father might be in danger.”
“Alright, you all heard her!! It’s a war! So get prepared!!”
Aja-nii shouted. His 3 sisters and Baka nodded and changed their atmosphere.
“Orlando and everyone. White-sama is a powerful ally and our savoir. Consider this as level 5 danger and immobilize all of our personals!!”
Pericel is worked up as well.
“All mage squad are coming with me!!”
TinTin is acting cool too. The cheeky pendent-san is shining unlike usual.
“Everyone! Today, we declared war against Topel! We’ll attack right now when they aren’t prepare for us. And then we’ll save White-sama and everyone!”
“Arrhhhhhh!!!”
“Kori-nee-chan. Please get ready as well.”
“I’m ready!!!”
I answered her immediately and changed into my battle suit. Lanlan nodded lovingly to me.
“Yuichi!!! MARCH!!!”
*Roar*
Yuichi roared loudly and then he charged forward in full speed. Everyone got ready really fast, and we had already waiting at the front yard where we could see where Yuichi is going.
After a few moment, I can see the city.
I’m getting excited.
Master!! I’m coming!!!
