Chapter 132: Chapter 117- Passing the Time with Conversations

[Luna POV]

After the night we practiced stellar magic, nothing of note happened for a week.  We did see a merchant caravan going in the direction of Beria and were told to be wary of a large monster that was reported in the area about two days ahead of us.  Today was the day we entered that area.

 

“I wonder what it is that has been reported around here?” (Soleil)

 

“Well, with how it is around Luna, we’ll probably end up encountering whatever it is, so all we have to do is wait and see.” (Velvet)

 

“Hey, at least it might be more exciting than just walking on the road all day.” (Luna)

 

“This has already been exciting, master.  I haven’t ever seen this much open area with nothing around except when we were by the sea.” (Ophidia)

 

“Well, this area is called the grass sea for a reason.” (Velvet)

 

“Where did you hear that from?” (Luna)

 

“One of the other merchants from that caravan told me when I bought a mask from him.” (Velvet)

 

“What kind of mask is it this time?” (Luna)

 

Velvet pulled it out of her item bag and showed it to me.

 

“Ooh.  A plague doctor mask, how interesting.” (Luna)

 

“A what now?” (Velvet)

 

“Don’t worry about it.” (Luna)

 

She shrugged her shoulders and put the mask away.  After a while, Soleil transformed into her fox form and jumped into Velvet’s arms.

 

“What brought this on?” (Velvet)

 

“Just felt like being close to you like this.” (Soleil)

 

“Hehehe.  I would complain if it was anyone but you.” (Velvet)

 

Soleil then wrapped her tail around Velvet like she was giving her a hug.

 

‘Showoffs.’

 

{Now, now, the full moon is close, so we can do the same then.}

 

‘That’s true.’

 

I ignored the couple and looked over to Ophidia.  She kept taking glances at Velvet and Soleil, then got a contemplative look on her face.

 

“What’s up Ophidia?” (Luna)

 

“I was just thinking.  Looking at Soleil like that makes me jealous of the fluffiness of her tail.  I won’t mention yours since I know nothing can compare to them, but it makes me feel like I’m the odd one out.  I mean sure, Velvet doesn’t have a tail, but the other two people in the party do, and they’re extremely fluffy.  Me, on the other hand, can have one in my lamia form, but it’s scaly.” (Ophidia)

 

“Hmm.  Well, are the scales on your tail rough or smooth?  I read in a book that you have pristinely smooth scales when I was looking for information about the island.  Not to mention that they can’t be worse than wyvern scales.  I mean really, I almost changed my mind about keeping some wyverns alive when I felt their scales.” (Luna)

 

“Though I don’t want to boast, my scales should be just as you described, pristinely smooth.” (Ophidia)

 

“Then you have nothing to worry about.  Sure, I’m biased toward fluff, but smooth scales are fine as well.  If you’re worried about someone not liking that in the future, then that person isn’t right for you.  They would need to accept every aspect of you, scales and all.” (Luna)

 

“That puts my mind at ease, thank you master.” (Ophidia)

 

“Any time.  If you ever feel insecure about something, you can always ask me or any of the others and we’ll help out.  This party is more than just friends, we’re all family.” (Luna)

 

“I see.  Then I thank whatever it was that allowed me to meet all of you, be it fate or something else.” (Ophidia)

 

“I don’t know if Atmos had anything to do with it, but I can pass on those thanks to her the next time I see her.” (Luna)

 

“I’ll thank her myself when I become your Apostle.” (Ophidia)

 

“Sure thing.  Oh, on the topic of Apostles, I think I figured out the conditions for you to become one.” (Luna)

 

“What are they?” (Ophidia)

 

“For you, reach level 10 space magic and reach S level Int.” (Luna)

 

“I hit level nine in space magic the other day, so I’m close to that, but my Int stat is only B+.” (Ophidia)

 

“Don’t worry, we’ll find some items to raise it to S.  I’ll make sure of it.” (Luna)

“Thank you master.  I look forward to the day I become your Apostle.” (Ophidia)

 

“What about me, big sis?” (Soleil)

 

“I’m not completely sure yet.  I think getting level 10 stellar magic is one condition, but I don’t know if there are any others.  The good thing about that is you are the only person with stellar magic that can actually level it up for now.” (Luna)

 

“Then I’ll try my best to level it up quickly.” (Soleil)

 

“If you keep squirming like that you’ll fall so stop.” (Velvet)

 

“Hahaha.  Ok, though you could hug me tighter too.” (Soleil)

 

“I was going to anyway.” (Velvet)

 

Watching the two of them like this, I couldn’t help but grin.

 

“Hey Soleil, whenever we run into the mongrel’s brother, are you going to start flirting with Velvet to spite him?” (Luna)

 

“I was just going to turn him into a pile of ashes, but that sounds so much better.  Of course, Velvet would have to go along with it.” (Soleil)

 

“If it’s to spite that arrogant piece of trash, then I’m all for it.” (Velvet)

 

“Hehehehehehehehe.  And I just got the perfect idea to do just that.” (Soleil)

 

“Mind filling us in on it?” (Luna)

 

“I’ll keep it to myself.” (Soleil)

 

“Ok, though I think I have an idea of what it is.” (Luna)

 

“What is it?” (Velvet)

 

“I’m not telling.  Just make sure to make it a memory that he will see even after he dies.” (Luna)

 

“Got it.” (Soleil)

 

-Meanwhile in the town of Mid.

[Mordred POV]

 

*Crash*

 

“What’d you do this time you stupid idiot?” (Mordred)

 

“Shut up.” (Mortem)

 

“Oooh.  Someone’s extra angry today.” (Mordred)

 

“I said shut up!” (Mortem)

 

“Why don’t you calm down, you’ll get us both kicked out of here if you don’t.” (Mordred)

 

“Grrrrrrr!  I hope that damn party gets here fast, I want to take my frustration out on the one that thinks she can take Velvet away from me.” (Mortem)

 

“Pfffft.  That’s what’s making you so mad?  How hilarious, I bet Velvet would rather feed you to goblins than have anything to do with you.  I know that’s how I feel.” (Mordred)

 

“One more word and I’ll tear your throat out.” (Mortem)

 

“Try it and I’ll serve you up like a suckling pig at a grand feast to you brother.” (Mordred)

 

Mortem turned away in a huff and I could hear the sound of him grinding his teeth.

 

‘While I hate the guy, he is right about hoping the party gets here quickly.  I want to know if they can help get rid of him and Beryl.’

 

Chaos Realm:
I guess Mortem has some kind of weird sixth sense that makes him angry every time Velvet and Soleil start flirting.

Atmos: Isn't it hilarious?  I'm tempted to throw a cake in his face right now, just to see his reaction.

*In my best Palpatine voice* Do it.

Mortem: GGGGRRRRRAAAAAAA!  WHERE THE HELL DID THAT COME FROM!?

Mordred: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHA!

Grey: That will never not be entertaining.

I agree.  *I then look over to Tamamo and Skadi*

Skadi: What is your opinion Lady Tamamo?  Are smooth scales just as good as fluff?

Tamamo: Well, I, like Luna, am biased towards the fluff side, but they can be nice I guess.

Skadi: Hmmmmmm.
