Chapter 39: Moon Festival Preparation...
1156 Words
"Uggaaah!!!"
Thrown to the wall by Mashura power... I was tired as hell... It's already Eight AM... It's already breakfast hour... We woke up at Six. And we go straight to training together...
"Not bad Alfredo. It looks like you're really improving."
I take her hand and then look at her with determination.
"Thank you. But it's not enough. I need to be a bit more stronger without relying on my equipment so much."
"I know. You need protection against hand to hand martial artist... And I'm here to train with you!"
I'm thankful that Mashura is here for me at all the time... Since she's a really good mentor when she is serious about teaching me something...
"Speaking of which! Let's go eat breakfast and go on our own way for today. I want to visit some places for the Moon Festival Preparation!"
Mashura want to split up? Okay then. It's fine. I want to make some preparation as well....
"Yeah. By the way, Where are you going for today?"
"Well, I'm planning to go and attend some matters. You know, we're in the capital of Alkem. And we've killed the Orc Lord... And during my time as a knight... I actually have some acquaintance that I can talk to, to reach the royal family."
"I see. Good luck with that. Bring Kylus and some of my Grenades with you. If danger comes, don't kill them."
Mashura nodded. Of course, we can't kill people if things got worse in here... So I want her to bring some of my grenade so that she won't waste the Kylus Energy Shot.
I give her a weak Flashbang and Sound Bomb... A couple of them, so that she can use it continuously if she needed it to be used like that...
And with that...
"I'm off!"
"Take care! Be back before lunch!"
"Yess~"
And now, I go straight to the Forgery... I have some things to make...
I bring the Sea Dragon Magic Stone with me and then go to the Three Dimensional Printer... I make two Chains made out of Mithril and then started printing it...
I want to make some necklace for us both. Just as a proof of my love. Rather than giving her a ring... I want to give her a necklace...
For now, our relationship remains hidden. Not even us know what we are to be honest. We're not a fully pledged couple... But we act like lovers...
People probably thought us as Brother and Sister. And for the time being, I'm fine with that, and Mashura is fine. Because it's what other people thought. Not what we thought about each other...
Of course, we thought of each other as someone important to each other already. More than Lovers. But not a Fiancée as well. Maybe... Husband and Wife? Wait... What?
Do I really think of her as my wife? And does she really act like I'm her husband? No... It couldn't possibly it... We're too green to act like that.
And also, why the f**k am I going against my own thought?! Screw it.
"Laser Cutter... Laser Cutter."
I turn on the power for the Laser cutter and then put the Sea Dragon Magic stone on the table... At first, I split the Sea Dragon Stone in half. So that I can use this other half for something later on. I split it right on the center of the stone, from the side...
And now, I have two identical but smaller stone... I can make two jewelries with it...
Anyway... For the Necklace... I just make quite a big heart shape with the Sea Dragon Magic Stone...
And then, I make a smaller one out of that particular Heart...
Now I have two Heart. If I put them side to side, it's easy to recognize that the Smaller heart goes on the Hollowed heart...
And this is just what I think of our love... I'm going to take the hollowed one and she's going to take the smaller one...
Since her presence really fill me with her love... It's her that makes me who I am today...
I make a small hole on our Sea Dragon Stone...
With that, I go to the Three Dimensional Printer and grab the Chains... I quickly assemble the necklaces and then immediately wear my part... I try to put her Sea Dragon Stone. And of course, it doesn't fit because the Chain is obstructing its way.
But that doesn't matter. Because it's still easy to see that, Mashura Necklace is a part of Mine, and mine is a part of hers... We fill each other roles...
"Yup. Perfect."
I put her necklace on my pocket and hide my necklace. And then, I go out to the city to grab some material to make our own shoes. Because, why not!
While Alfredo is out there doing and searching his own stuff to make another present for Mashura... Mashura is also busy with gathering information regarding what the Royal Family think of this Orc Lord and Aligh Nobles Betrayal...
She goes to the bar. A Certain Bar in the slump side of the City...
She's wearing a coat, so that no one knows who she is. The reason being, because she's pretty famous with the people around here. They know here as the Lawless Knight. Even though she's a knight, she doesn't care about the law around here. And that's because she's a girl, she usually get hit on by men. And she hated it and destroy them.
Anyway... She take a seat on the bar and then look at the Bartender. The bartender is also a lady... And recognizing the bartender... Mashura say a code.
"Bones for Bones, Money for Information."
The Bartender slowed down... She look at Mashura and continue making her order, which is just a normal water, because she's here for information, and not to get drunk. Beside, she's worried that Alfredo might get angry if he caught her drinking in daylight.
"So, Have the Royal Family say anything regarding the Attack of the Orc Lord and the Betrayal of Aligh Nobles?"
"Yes, They have. It seems like the Royal Family is going to search for the fighter that hold the Orc Lord. The Four unknown Adventurer that protect the City. From what I've heard, some messenger has been sent to search for them."
"I see... Thank you for your information."
Mashura was satisfied with the information. She drink her water and then give the Bartender Money for her information... She immediately get out of the bar.
'So they already sent someone huh... Knowing the Royal family... They're probably sending some normal messenger to Raemond, Hinata and myself. But they're probably going to send the Princess straight toward Alfredo...'
Mashura let out a really cold smile thinking about it...
'Cheeky buggers... I won't let you have Alfredo. I won't let you steal my Alfredo!'
