Chapter 834: Did you have fun?
[Zodiac’s POV: ]
“Can you believe that? They just gave him that flower petal. That Bastard.”
“It’s not that hard to believe after seeing him do all that we have alredy seen.”
She was trying to catch a small rabbit baby for a while now, but the little creature knew how to move their feet.
“Hump. He’s just a little better than me in magic and perhaps a little less better to you when it comes to weapon handling.
He just happens to know a few more things than most of us and he had good eyes.
There’s nothing much special about him than that.”
She was complaining how Lucifer was nothing special and still was a lucky bastard, how there were things that he was lucky to get or how there were some things that he got lucky with.
She knew those hurtful words weren’t truth so this was just her ranting about the things that she couldn’t help but accept.
“If you want to see that petal, you can just ask him. I’m pretty sure he’d show it you like everyone else.”
“As if I’d ever do that, hump. There’s nothing special about a fragment of gem. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
It’s not like it’s some amazing artifact that can summon an elemental king or something so I don’t see why everyone is so obsessed with it.” Enjoy exclusive chapters from m-v l’e-NovelFire
Yeah, well. You might have just jinxed yourself but, it’s better if you are wrong.
‘I can’t even imagine what would happen if something as dangerous and powerful as an object possessing the power to summon a sovereign power falls into the hands of evil.’
We obviously know he alredy possesses many such dangerous objects since we have seen him play a forgotten divine artifact by ourself, as well as possessing an artificial being that is almost as proficient with a divine artifact as him.
“You act like a baby sometimes, you know?”
She was one of the smartest and toughest people I have met in this long life of mine, and still… ever since we met the two of them, she has changed a lot more than she did over the three years we attended the academy.
“Say that again and you will receive a smack on your head.”
She gave me a look of disgust while clicking her tongue and once again jumped on the green baby rabbit.
There were six of them and all six of them possessed a skill that boosted their speed by many folds.
Additionally, they were special elemental creatures that could use the powers of the elements so, in a cave filled with spirits of winds, creatures that can use the unlimited power of these spirits were obviously not going to be an easy opponent for anyone.
‘They were one of the cutest and most difficult opponents to get their hands on, and since they were extremely playful, they thought of this entire thing to be a fun game.
She had been chasing after them for a while now and there were a few times she had almost caught them as well, but they were smart.
‘There were six of them so whenever one of them were caught, the others came together and tickled the one that had caught them.’
It simply made their grip lose and since they were in love with these cute little things, they only had one choice if they wanted to get their hands on them.
‘Winning in their own game.’
There were only six of them so, if she really wanted to, as a master of trapping magic, she would have caught all of them a long time ago.
‘But then again, it would not have been the same as what Lucifer did.’
That bastard caught all six of them with his bare hands without using any kind of magic or Aura.
He did not even use his bows and arrows and just caught the six of them with some kind of movement prediction method.
“Haaaa… just come here and sit down for a minute please. You have been at that for three hours now.”
The little babies had tramenious stamina… and it wasn’t because they were rabbits. They were children so they were naturally more active then even ether parents.
They were cute as well, so it compensated for their shrewd personality and playful attitude.
‘They liked winning so they did all that they could possibly think of to not get caught by any of them after Lucifer so… they had a great score until now.
But, they most certainly weren’t the only ones that liked winning against large unknown predators like us.’
They might be playful creatures but there were many that possessed the powers and skills to catch them if they just used those skills and powers.
But, no…
“Haaa… I guess I can take a break. I’m taking a break, everyone!”
It was the morning after one of the most memorable nights I’ve spent in my entire life.
Everyone had already had our breakfast, so they were playing around the paradise now that they had some time on their hands.
“Oh~. I’ll take over there then~.”
Some of them were playing with other creatures, the researchers and the curious ones were researching on the creatures, plant life, and the elemental gateway in the centre of the lake.
Some were playing in the water with the aquatic creatures while some were deep diving in the search of some unique kind of treasures… sad that they weren’t going to find anything there.
‘SanSan already cleared that place up and thanks to him, I now had some good things that I wanted to look at as soon as possible.’
But that wasn’t going to be possible in this place so, I wanted to finish things here and go back… but then again, seeing everyone play so happily, these creatures that were being unusually cooperative with them, and the very nature of this unique place was enjoyable.
Especially, seeing them take turns to play with some of the cute creatures was a sight I had never thought I would enjoy so much.
“Haaaa…”
“Did you have fun?”
Asking her with a smile while handing her the cup of fresh water, I glanced at how our little fairy friend was now chasing after the little green rabbits and a chuckle escaped from me.
“Cute Tia. Reminds me of the fairy we had in our batch… what was her name again?”
“Which fairy?”
There were more than one fairies in our batch, same with this batch, but since Tia was the only Fairy captain, she was a famous one among her peers.
“Right, we had many fairies… hmmm… you know the one that had purple wings and ranked third in the second year’s midterms?”
“Oh, you mean Droplet. Yes, she was quite adorable as well.”
There were quite a few memorable individuals among our batch that we occasionally talk about.
She was also one of those people… a fairy that was perhaps as talented as me in every academic aspect.
‘She was smart, she was cute, she was childish even though she was more than a hundred years old, and she was a crybaby that still sends me letters to this day.’
Thinking back, she was an interesting person that also had a crush on me.
But after I rejected her dating request the sixth and last time during our graduation, I have never had the chance to meet her because of the academy president duties…
“Yes, that one. She was a nutjob, but she was pretty cute like this fairy friend of ours.”
She doesn’t just call someone friend so even among the people present with us, there weren’t many that she called friend.
Calling them that casually was a different matter since she calls anyone anything she pleases. But, friendship used to be a very big step for her.
Though, thanks to the two of them, she had started accepting more individuals as a ‘friend’ in the last few months.
She had improved so much that as the only friend she had before this new batch, I wanted to go and thank the two that changed her so much. And…
“Don’t say that like a child-.”
-Smack!
“I told you not to call me a child or a baby. Have you gone deaf?”
She was still the same old Cradle that I knew well. And I liked that much more than the fact that she had changed for the better in many aspects.
But her hands still hurt.
“You know how strong you are, Del?”
“Of course I know… that I’m not strong enough to have her.”
She had a deep crush on Miss Uriel, I sometimes think it’s actually love instead of just a crush but she knew what was possible and what was not.
‘She restricted herself from loving someone that already was someone else’s. She knew pain and she did not like it.’
She was a pretty and simple person in my eyes. A good friend that had saved my life many times, and a friend I cherish much more than our experience in this paradise.
“Haaa. Come here. Let’s not get emotional, alright?”
Hugging her while sitting down after taking the glass of water from her, we stayed like that for a moment until one of the curious, worried, and confused green baby rabbits approached us from behind.
And, when it was right within the range, she did not hesitate even for a moment, very carefully took head position, and when the moment was the most appropriate, she jumped towards the creature and at last… she was holding what she had been after for last so many hours.
