Chapter 608 A rare excitement
[Eon’s POV: ]
[{ So master… when is sister Elle going to come back? }]
[{ “Dunno. Well, she should be back anytime soon perhaps? I don’t know what she is doing there but it seems like she is having some fun talking with-” }]
[{ *Ah, master, looks like she’s back.* }]
Lucy spoke up after quite a while and I looked up from the corner of the stage, and she was falling down in that moment.
It was like she had opened her eyes for a moment but then she lost control of her body and started falling… but thankfully I was just beside her so I used {Quick steps} and caught her at the right time.
“Hey, Uriel, you alright?!”
She was almost unconscious and when this happened, the tenth group was just about to start their summoning process but the headmaster stopped midway through the process.
“Hunnnn… what…?”
“Shuuuuu. Don’t speak.”
She seemed to be confused, the look on her face was quite distorted from a while ago.
She had been standing on the stage without moving for more than half an hour after the first group’s summoning was complete but now that I was looking at her, she seemed more worn out and even her face was pale.
Even the Mana in her body was almost depleted. To the point that she needed immediate help or else her body might have fallen into a state of (Mana depletion).
I thought she was fine since she looked and felt fine, but, this was not fine at all.
‘Damn…’
I took out one of my Mana potions and slowly poured it into her mouth. She was good aside from this Mana depletion and since her mana pool was absurdly large, I had to pour three bottles of potions just to bring the Mana levels to a safer degree.
“Haaaa…”
The people in the stands and everyone looking at us were shocked or surprised, our friends were all worried as well, but after I confirmed her condition and confirmed the absence of any possible abnormalities, I was relieved. And seeing me sigh with relief made the others calm down as well.
“You alright ma’am?”
“Hmmmmm…? Yes, I’m fine.”
“It’s good then. Let’s go down.”
“Hmmm?”
I used the movement skills a few times again and moved both of us to the ground below strange in a good place, under a good shade, and signaled at the headmaster with a thumps up.
He knew I would handle this one so he activated the magic circle with eleven people on the ends of the circle and the students who were looking at us at that time looked back towards the stage, most of them at least, Quin, Med, Lizzy, and others came running to the place we were sitting and Quin hugged her with teary eyes.
She was fine like me since she saw I wasn’t worried about her that much, but that sudden fall and what happened after that shocked her quite a lot.
She was worried Rein saw that as well, so when she was hugging her, Rein smiled warmly and patted the back of her dear little friend.
“Looks like I worried you all. Well… I’m sorry. Even I don’t know what had happened. How much time has passed since our turn, darling?”
“Thirty-three minutes and fifty seconds. You were still like a statue all this time and didn’t respond even after I called for you so the headmaster decided to leave you alone and continue forward with a pair of eleven students.
He said it was a rare occurrence where the people whose consciousness has traveled to some other place at the location of the creature that might be their familiar takes quite a long time to come back.
He said it was rare but not abnormal so we continued. This is the tenth group now. And everyone is looking forward to seeing what Princess Luna summons.
There hasn’t been anything too attractive, aside from the fact that Prince Alph bonded with a cute-looking pair of a turtle and snake.
He named him Gen. He’s cute. We all should go see them after this is over.”
Not much had happened while she was in that suspended state. None of the prominent students’s turn had arrived for the summoning after us.
The current turn and Princess Luna were the first famous people after us who everyone was looking forward to seeing the results of the summonings.
“Hmmmm… well, alright. Looks like nearly the same time passed as that place.”
She sighed and caressed the head of her friend, then patted the head of her cute Med who was also in tears, and hugged Lizzy, who had supported these two crybabies in her absence. She was reliable.
“Thanks for worrying about me everyone, but I’m alright. In fact, I’m more than alright.”
She was smiling excitedly. She was happy. I was uncertain before but I knew now that whatever she had experienced in that place, was better than the vague things that I went through.
“You are alright and that’s everything that matters.”
I gave her a warm smile and she smiled bitterly, came back down to the ground, hugged me, and kissed me on the cheeks with her cool lips.
“Sorry to worry you again. But I experienced something amazing. A little strange and frustrating but, amazing.”
She hugged me while we both were sitting and facing each other. Romantic, certainly, even though there were thousands of people around.
“Ummmm…! Ummmmm! You two! There are people watching!”
“Who cares dear?”
Med was as cute as ever. She really said that even though she knew we didn’t care about it. .
“Ummm, guys? Care to look at that?”
A minute passed and there were sounds all around us and they were certainly surprised about something on the stage. And since Carla asked us to look back with a surprised voice herself, we both looked back and a certain creature, a surprising one, greeted our eyes.
“Holy moly…”
“Wow, isn’t that a [Deep Blue]?! A mature one at that?!”
“I thought they had gone extinct already though…”
“Not really. There are currently around five or six packs of them known to be present in the very north of the northern continent. Perhaps more in the unexplored areas but they certainly do still exist.”
A shark-like creature far bigger than a shark, actually, it was as big as some of the biggest creatures present in this garden.
And it looked ferocious, hungry, deadly, creepy as well. Totally different from the turtle and snake.
And still, this was a young one, perhaps one that was just entering adulthood.
It was a (Blue) ranked creature at the moment and their kind was one of the deadliest (Purple) ranked sea predators who dominated the cold seas since the old times.
It was a species that was presumed to be lost but I had this secret information from a reliable source that confirmed their presence around certain hidden islands in the deeper parts of the northern seas.
‘One of those islands was a place we would be visiting if a need for a certain thing ever arose, so there is a chance we would be facing these creatures in their natural habitats. And since I don’t have that deep information about them, this is a good opportunity.’
Titania was our friend. She played around with us most of the time whenever she got the chance and Princess Luna followed her everywhere.
She didn’t have any actual friends aside from us, so she was with us most of the time as well. So, I had a good chance to observe this master predator of old times closely.
“However…”
There was one very unique thing about these creatures that were nicknamed ‘Nightmares of the Old Seas’. They were creatures that respected superiority above everything else.
“Kyaaaaaaaaaa!”
“What’s happening? Why is it…!?”
“What’s it doing?!”
The one that had been summoned on the stage knew what was going on and the fact that the one present before her was the being that its soul resonated with very closely.
She was his master and he had a chance to be her familiar. But, before he accepts her as his master, he has to test her.
And since he was a being of the ‘soul freezing waters’, the method of testing was obviously…
“He’s testing her affinity, right?”
“Yup.”
Quin guessed it right. She was pretty sensitive to the water attribute so she guessed it just like Rein did.
“The Deep Blues possess a very high affinity with water and ice and the ones who have higher affinity are regarded as superior to the others in their groups.
They respect the superiority of affinity so that one’s testing hers. But his actions could only be regarded as cute, haha.”
He was trying to test a witch. A being closer to nature than most other races. She was called the (Witch of Blizzards), a title she stone from an Elder mage with her high affinity and innate skill related to the ice attribute alone.
Even her offensive Witchcraft was considered to be a catastrophe by the powers in the north.
She was a very famous figure, and, there was no way that cute fewer.
shark was gonna win against her when it came to the affinities even if he tried his hardest.
[{ “Well… that’s a pretty rare creature and from that look on your face, I can tell you are interested in it. Good for you, but let’s put that aside. Look here, darling!” }]
She called me out excitedly and looked at me with eyes that were eager to tell me about something that I would undoubtedly find exciting.
‘A rare sight I see…’
There were few things in this world that could excite her this much. Things that would excite me as well were undoubtedly even fewer.
I didn’t know what it was but from that tone, I could tell it was pretty cool, but…
[{ “Yeah, so, I met a dragon!!!” }]
I didn’t think it would be this much cool, or complicated in better words.
