Chapter 85: It's the brother turn now.
1146 Words
There's one other person that is close to Lavi that Lavi meant to visit. However, Lavi didn't know where he is so he decided to just wait for his arrival back to Shireno... It was obviously Rin. Although Rin isn't someone that Lavi want to consider as his lover, Rin is at least someone he consider a close brother of his.
Of course, Lavi himself have a lot of brothers and sisters from the Harbingers. However, Lavi doesn't want to bother them right now. Because Lavi knew, they're busy with their own life. Lavi would welcome them with a very open arm if they wanted to meet up with him. But, as long as it's not them who reached out to him, Lavi will hold himself back.
"Damn, Rin, come back soon. I can only have Shireno sunny and warm for 1 more day. After tomorrow, Shireno would be hit with an intense snow storm and the temperature will drop even more." Lavi looked at the sunny Shireno from the balcony of the castle and then sip his tea.
'This power of Creation that I steal from the Ancient One, I still yet to master it. It would take me a long time to completely master the power of Creation as it has its own limiter... And the way to master it is not that simple as well... I need to enter a seclusion and fully focus myself on absorbing the Essence of Creation and that would open up my mind, with my mind fully focused on it, then I can understand it little by little to the point that I fully master it...'
Although Lavi has gotten the power he doesn't want Theo to have, it's now his job to master the power of Creation because it would be a waste to not use it... However, Lavi also knew the fact that the Power of Creation would take a heavy toll on the user body if it were to use to create destruction.
While Lavi is pondering about with the power of Creation, on the outskirt of the Shireno, someone has finished his expedition. It's Rin and his party...
"... Wait, what the hell? Did we get lost on our way toward Shireno?" Rin was shook when he entered what he thought is the Shireno's border...
His party too, doesn't really understand what's going on. It's not the first time that they leave Shireno and enter through the border. In fact, they tend to do that because it felt more fun doing things manually like this. So they're familiar with the map and the geological location that they're supposed to be in.
Especially Rin. His memory about Shireno is top notch. Because he loved the place so much, he remember every single way and monuments that they took when leaving and entering the country...
Rin take another look around but this time, he had cleared his mind and wipe his eyes. Because he thought that his eyes is failing on him. As he looked around, he find the most obvious monument that he remembered clearly that indicates the SHIRENO region.
It is an Ice Spike that ever since the beginning of Shireno, has been there. The Ice was made with Divine Ice that made it impossible to melt no matter what the situation...
"... We are in Shireno... But..." Rin looked at his party and stated the obvious.
"Why is it Sunny and Warm?!" They were all used to the immense cold and eternal darkness of Shireno that seeing it under the scope of normal world is not something within their mind.
However, before they can get even more confused by the situation, their savior, the brother that they wished to appear so that he can answer their question, appear.
"Have a lot of question, didn't ya? Let me answer a few of them." Lavi, out of nowhere, said that to them. It's like he knew what they're thinking.
"Wait, since when are you here?" Rin asked. To him, it's pretty important to ask that because he doesn't want Lavi to see his idiotic state earlier.
"Well, just now. Don't worry about anything. I felt your presence earlier and immediately go here. So, if you think that I've been spying on you, don't worry... I didn't."
"That's good. Anyway, Lavi... You're awfully soft today... What's going on?" Rin notices the difference with Lavi today and that is the weirdest thing that he saw today. Not even Shireno like this can go against the fact that soft Lavi is weird!
"... Well, I'll answer those question of yours. Do mind that those two question correlate with each other so, you have to be satisfied with this answer of mine." Lavi will only give him an answer to the two question. Because, those two question have the same answer.
"Well basically, I had a date with all of my wives one by one... So in order to create the best situation for our date, I decided to stop the Eternal Winter and Darkness for 12 days so that I can enjoy the time I had with those I'm close with. So yeah, that is the answer to your questions." Lavi answer were short, simple yet straight and true.
Rin can only said "Make sense, I guess..." A date with a different wife every day for 10 days straight is bound to make Lavi felt an overwhelming sense of safety and happiness. So it's only natural that he's feeling and looking like a dumbass for now.
"That's good, Brother... Anyway... Care to talk for a bit?"
"Hm? What do you want to talk about?" Lavi observe the situation between Rin and his lovers... They suddenly turn serious and that gets Lavi thinking of a bad thing. 'Did something happen between them? But Rin and his lovers are looking fine... Do they get blackmailed in any way? If so, I need to teach them a bit of things.' Lavi is ready to help Rin clear the problem he had right now.
"I haven't told you but, me and the others, we venture to a place that has been banned by everyone to explore..." The moment Rin said that, Lavi eyes widened.
Lavi was surprised to hear that Rin ventured out to that area that even he himself when he becomes the Harbingers, never want to explore...
"You explore, that area?"
"Yes... The eastern nation that is big and secluded. Filled with tall mountains, dense and thick forest, beautiful lakes, everything that beautiful natural nature can create, is in there..."
"I see... So you explored the area that I don't even explore... The Palacia."
Everyone in the world knew about Palacia, but never once talk about it because Palacia is a place of nature and beauty, but at the same time... Lurking Danger in every single corner of the place...
