Chapter 231: Chapter 208- Special Event

[Luna POV]

Waking up the next morning, I immediately noticed something was weird.  The light coming in from the behind the shades on the window was a reddish hue.  I got up and opened the shades to find that the outside was way darker than normal.  I looked up to the sky to see the start of an eclipse.

 

“Oooooh.  Is this the surprise you were talking about?”

 

{Ufufufu.  Yep.  It was about time for one, so me and Quetz have been preparing to make it happen.}

 

“It’s pretty.  By the way, is there any significance to this?”

 

{These happen every 50 years or so.  We make them so that the cycle of day and night is kept on track.  That’s the simple explanation, it way more complicated than that, but that’s all you need to know.}

 

“I see.  How long does this last?”

 

{Not long, a few hours at most.}

 

“Hmm.  Another question, do these only ever happen during the day, or are there lunar eclipses as well?”

 

{There are, but those only happen during the full moon, so that won’t happen for a while.}

 

“Fufufu.  I get you.”

 

I left the window and room.  When I entered the dining room, I saw the others standing beside the window and looking outside.

 

“Heya.” (Luna)

 

“Hmm?  Oh, hey Luna.  It’s eclipse time.” (Skadi)

 

“I saw.” (Luna)

 

I joined the group and looked up again.

 

“Tamamo, if you and Quetz have to work together to do this, does that mean she is there as well?” (Luna)

 

{No, she is making sure the sun is doing what it needs to.  Eclipses are somewhat tricky to manage, so we’re doing what we need to to make it go right.  I’ll have to stop talking with you shortly so I can do my part.}

 

“Ok.  Good luck.” (Luna)

 

{Ufufufufu.  Now I’m motivated.}

 

As the sun and moon slowly crossed paths, it got darker and darker outside.  After about an hour or so, they finally looked like one object.  Instead of going completely dark, everything got tinted in a shade of red.

 

“Ooooh nya.” (Mio)

 

“Indeed.  It’s an interesting sight.” (Velvet)

 

“It’s been a while since I saw this.” (Ophidia)

 

“Yeah.  It’s always interesting to watch.” (Skadi)

 

“…” (Soleil)

 

I glanced at Soleil to see her sitting down with a canvas in front of her.  She was painting away as fast as she could.  This gave me an idea.  I held my hands up and formed a square with my fingers and created a domain between them with the image of what I was looking at.  I then moved my hands away from the view, but I still had the image in the domain.

 

“Hehe.” (Luna)

 

“Tch.  I didn’t finish it.” (Soleil)

 

“Soleil, look here.” (Luna)

 

“Oooh.  Thanks, big sis.” (Soleil)

 

As Soleil was finishing her painting with my help, I turned my attention back to the window to see that the sun and moon were separating.  After another hour or so, the eclipse was over.

 

{*Sigh*  That was tiring.}

 

“Want me to give you a massage once I’m done with this?” (Luna)

 

{I’m tempted, but we can save it for another time.  I think I’ll just go and take a nap.  Talk to you later, Luna.}

 

“Have a good rest.” (Luna)

 

“Big sis, I’m done, so you can stop that now.” (Soleil)

 

“You sure?  Once I stop, we…actually, we’ll probably be able to see this any time, so never mind.” (Luna)

 

The domain popped like a bubble when I lowered my hands.

 

“So nya, what did you do there nya?” (Mio)

 

“Hmmm.  I made a small domain between my fingers with the image of the full eclipse inside it.  Basically capturing the scene inside one so Soleil could finish her painting.  Also, with that, I can also recreate it at any time inside a domain now.” (Luna)

 

“Couldn’t you do that before though?” (Velvet)

 

“No, I could change the landscape with illusions, but the sky was different.  I needed a reference of an actual eclipse if I wanted it to seem real, and now that I’ve seen one, I can.  If I tried before, it would look fake.” (Luna)

 

“I see.” (Velvet)

 

“So, what do we do today?” (Skadi)

 

“I’m not sure.” (Luna)

 

While we were trying to figure out what to do for the day, Lia came into the room.

 

“Hello everyone, did you all watch the eclipse in here?” (Lia)

 

“Yeah.” (Luna)

 

“What’d you think of it?” (Lia)

 

“Interesting and beautiful.” (Luna)

 

“Same.” (Velvet)

 

“Yep.” (Soleil)

 

“Indeed nya.” (Mio)

“Now, on to other business, Luna, a letter has come for you.” (Lia)

 

Lia came up to me and handed me a letter in a fancy envelope.  I opened it and read the letter that was inside.

 

“I see.  Guess I’m going to the Academy today.” (Luna)

 

“I know you’ve been wanting to check it out, but who sent you that letter that made you decide to go there today?” (Skadi)

 

“The princess from the Beast Kingdom.  It seems like she knows my secret to some extent, so I need to tell her what’s what.” (Luna)

 

“Now hold on, when did that happen?” (Velvet)

 

“Same day we met her.  I think Pneuma has been running some interference for me while they were waiting for a good time and it seems like that time has come.” (Luna)

 

“Then let’s go.  I want to take a look around the Academy as well.” (Soleil)

 

“Anyone else coming?” (Luna)

 

“We all are.  There is a small shrine dedicated to my mother there, so I’m going to go and introduce Ophidia to her.  We won’t be able to see her in person, but we’ll be able to talk to her.” (Skadi)

 

“Alright.” (Luna)

 

“Eh!?  Ah, um, um, ummm.  Master, what do I do?  Do I bring something to offer?  Do I just tell her that her daughter is mine now?  What do I do?” (Ophidia)

 

“You calm down and let me do the talking at the beginning.  After that, we’ll explain everything to her.” (Skadi)

 

“B-but she’s my mother-in-law!  I have to make a good impression on her or she’ll hate me forever!” (Ophidia)

 

Before Ophidia could start to freak out even more, Skadi kissed her and she immediately calmed down.

 

“Ophidia, you’ll be fine.” (Skadi)

 

Ophidia took in a deep breath and let it out.

 

“You better keep that up later, Skadi.  Don’t toy with me.” (Ophidia)

 

Ophidia’s eyes got sharper for a second when she said that.

 

“Hahaha.  Don’t worry, I wasn’t planning on toying with you.” (Skadi)

 

“Hey Velvet, will we also get like that?” (Soleil)

 

“While I would like to say no, we probably will be.” (Velvet)

 

“I don’t know whether to look forward to it, or not.” (Soleil)

 

“Just let me know, and I’ll send the two of you off to be alone for a week whenever you want.” (Luna)

 

“Luna!” (Velvet)

 

“…” (Soleil)

 

“Soleil, this is where you say something as well.” (Velvet)

 

“Fufufufu.  There is my cute, flustered Soleil.” (Luna)

 

Soleil’s face was crimson and I thought I could see steam coming off of her head.  Velvet turned to look at her and she froze.  A gleam started to appear in her eyes for a second before she snapped out of it.

 

“*Cough* Soleil, snap out of it.” (Velvet)

 

Velvet touched Soleil on the shoulder and she jumped.  She looked at Velvet’s face with an expression of embarrassment with a hint of desire mixed in.  She then shook her head to clear her thoughts.

 

“Big sis, that wasn’t nice.” (Soleil)

 

“Hey, I was only stating the truth, all you two need to do is ask.” (Luna)

 

“Big sis!  Stop it now, or I’ll get mad at you for real.” (Soleil)

 

I went stiff at that.

 

“F-fine, I’ll stop for now.” (Luna)

 

“Good.  Now let’s go, we shouldn’t keep a princess waiting.” (Soleil)

 

Soleil started to move towards the door while everyone else looked at her in shock.

 

“I said let’s go.” (Soleil)

 

The rest of us started to move.

 

“Luna, why did that scare you so much?” (Velvet)

 

“You don’t get it, Velvet.  She can be worse than me when she’s mad.  And when I say worse than me, I mean her mischievousness.  When we were younger, I got her mad at me, and that started a prank war between us that lasted almost two months.  I lost big time.” (Luna)

 

“So, what I’m getting here is that I should never let Soleil get mad at me, right?” (Velvet)

 

“Don’t let her nature take hold of her is what I’m getting at.  She actually controls it and puts it to work in helping her improve herself, unlike me.” (Luna)

 

“Noted.” (Velvet)

 

Like that, we left Lia’s home and headed to the Academy.

 

Chaos Realm:
Order: I'm back.

Welcome back.  How was it?

Order: Good.  Less insane than I was expecting.

That's...good?

Order: Yes.

Fenrir: *Cough* Lady Order, may I have a bit of your time?  I'd like to ask about some things.

Order: That's fine.  Do you want this discussion to be private or is he allowed to be here?

Fenrir: Private if neither of you mind.

Alright, call me if you need anything. *Leaves the room*

Order: Now, what did you want to ask?

Fenrir: Well, you see...
