A child suddenly appeared in front of the door, that made Aella and Noella tremble and fear the child. Seeing the child, I stood up and walked toward him, Aella was confused. Because it was a child, I crouched down in front of him, and said.
“Where’s your parents, my child?”
I saw his face and he was so irritated about it, suddenly I was being grabbed by Aella behind me. Aella leaned her mouth to my right ear, and whispered.
“What is thou doing?”
“What am I doing? There is a child of course, I want to help him..” we exchanged whispers.
“And she is not him..”
“Really? I thought he was a boy with that attire.”
“And once moe, thou better not causes her irritated or an–”
Suddenly, the child shouted at me fiercely.
“WHO YOU CALLING A CHILD?”
“Ah! Methinks it’s too late to say to thou about it” Aella whispered to me “Thou better be prepared..”
“What prepar–”
Suddenly she pushed me to the child. The child just stared at me fiercely in front of her..
…
..
There was only silence, in some moments.
Finally the child opened her mouth “YOU, BRING YOUR FACE HERE!!”
I leaned down at her face.
“WHO YOU CALLING A CHILD?”
I answered “You?”
“AM I LOOKING LIKE A CHILD?”
I observed her from bottom to the top, Yup she is a child.
“Yes, you do?”
“DO YOU NOT KNOW WHO AM I?”
“I don’t have any clue..”
“REALLY?” She looked at Aella “YOU PLANT LOVER, TELL HIM WHO I AM!”
“I’m at thy command..” Aella walked toward us. In front of me, she started to introduce the child to me “This is almighty varania, the mighty red dragon from dragon race, she is the dragon that demon lord rides, argal she is the only creature that can alongside the demon lord, and she hath lived longer than I am, so she is not a child.”
“GREAT PLANT LOVER, YOU CAN GO BACK..”
Quickly, Aella went back to Noella behind us.
“So you are a dragon?” I asked her.
“YES I AM..”
“Can you not raise your voice every time you speak?”
“THIS IS HOW I SPEAK.”
“RAISED YOUR VOICE DON’T ASSERT YOUR DOMINANCE, SO DON’T RAISE YOUR VOICE WHEN YOU SPEAK, PLEASE.”
Her face suddenly baffled, and I looked behind, Aella and Noella’s faces were astonished, I turned my gaze at her again, and she showed her grumpiness.
“WHO THE HELL ARE YOU? TELLING ME WHAT TO DO, ARE YOU SORT OF MY MOTHER OR MY MASTER? THAT CAN TEL—” She immediately stopped talking, I looked at her and seemed to stare at something in my hand, I followed her stare and she gazed to my finger where there was a ring in there. She suddenly turned her face up to me.
“WHO GIVES YOU THAT RING?” pointed the ring.
“Lilith the one who gave me this…Is this ring the reason you came here?”
“WHAT!!! SHE GAVE YOU THAT RING…”
“Yes she did, now you want to talk while you are standing, or taking a seat?”
She just nodded, therefore I led her to the front seat with Aella and Noella. She took a seat beside them, she glared at the dish of Aella and Noella and the pillows beside them. Before I went behind the counter, she said to me,
“WHAT ARE THOSE BESIDE THEM?” Pointed at the pillows.
“It’s a pillow, you can look at the behind, there is plenty of it..”
“I WANT ONE..”
“Right..” I went to get a pillow for her..
After I got it, I handed it over to her, and immediately she hugged the pillow fiercely. I went back behind the counter, took the kris on the table to the back of the counter, and after it, I asked her.
“The blast earlier, is that what you were doing?”
“THE BLAST? AH! YES, I KEPT RAMMING TO THE TREE AND THIS BUILDING, BUT THERE IS SOMETHING THAT PROTECTED IT.”
“Why did you do that?”
“BECAUSE I SENSED MY MASTER SCENT IN HERE, SO I RAMMED IT.”
“Your master???? You mean Lilith?”
“YOU HUMAN, SO CASUALLY CALLED HER NAME, YES SHE IS MY MASTER..”
“Is that really a big deal?” I looked at Aella and Noella, and they immediately nodded. “Well I don’t know about that…..so do you want the one your master drinks and eats?”
“WHAT YOU MEAN?”
“Your master drank and ate in here…” Without paying…
“SO WHAT MY MASTER EAT AND DRINK?”
“If you want, I can bring it to you..”
“BRING IT..”
“Right on…”
I immediately started to make Cappuccino. When I prepared the ices from the freezer box, she immediately said,
“YOU HAVE ICES, AND WHAT IS THAT?”
“About that, you can ask someone beside you, she already knows what it is. So I can prepare your drink.”
Aella suddenly bursted her mouth while drinking…
“YOU PLANT LOVER, KNOW WHAT IS THAT?”
“Yes, I have heard the explanation from him..”
Aella immediately explained what she heard from me to her, while I was making the drink. When I turned on the espresso machine, Varania’s reaction was the same as Lilith. Aella explained to her. The drink was done without any disturbance or question like before, I served it to her with a straw not like the others. Aella again explained to her, about the small glass, that it was sugar. She was immediately shocked and surprised. But Aella was confused about the straw.
“Darya, what is that thing in her drink?”
“Ah!, that’s a straw…It helps you drink…so you just sipping at it…”
“Is that so? may you grant me one? I do want to try..”
I gave Aella and Noella the straws, immediately they sipped the drink with straws.
“HEI PLANT LOVER, CONTINUE YOUR EXPLANATION!”
Aella continued to explain about the drink, Varania took a sip of it, and the reaction was the same as Lilith. Immediately she poured all the sugar into the drink. After she drank her drink, I served her the chocolate cake.
“This is the cake that your master ate.”
She was confused about the fork, but Aella explained it to her, and demonstrated it. Immediately she did what Aella demonstrated, yet she did it like a child, and the cakes dripped over her mouth like Lilith.
While she was enjoying it, I asked her.
“You come here, because you sensed your master’s scent, is it what you do every time your master goes off?
“I AM NOT FOLLOWING MY MASTER BECAUSE MERELY HER SCENT, BUT I SENSED SHE WAS IN DANGER TOO..”
Aella said “Methinks it’s impossible, the demon lord was in danger, right Darya?”
“What does this danger mean?”
“I SENSED HER WAS IN A DEEP PRESSURE FROM SOMETHING THAT MADE HER UNABLE TO MOVE.”
Aella turned her face to me “Is that ludicrous? something stronger that can compose the demon lord unable to move.”
“AHHH!!!!” I realized it.
“Don’t say to me thou are the one that made the demon lord unable to move..” Aella said to me.
“WAHHT!! YOU THE ONE WHO MADE MY MASTER SUFFERED” She immediately jumped off from her seat and threw the pillow at me. “WHO ARE YOU, HUMAN? SO THAT RING, YOU TOOK IT FORCEFULLY FROM MY MASTER, WHERE IS SHE NOW?”
“Just calm down…It was just a misunderstanding.”
“MISUNDERSTANDING? YOU HARMED MY MASTER, IT IS MY PLACE TO ERASE SOMEONE LIKE YOU..”
Immediately Aella and Noella took some steps back.
“VARANUS FOTIA” There was nothing happening from her, and suddenly, the forced went to her.
She was being pushed down, making her kneeled. Aella and Noella were shocked about it..
“It’s done again..”
“WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?”
“Nothing, I don’t do anything…It’s just what have you done..”
“PERIFOUR” again there was nothing happening, and the force being more powerful than before, she lost the kneeled, and made her sprawled around.
I turned my gaze to Aella “Do you know what spell she used?”
“The first one is her breath spell, and the second is the protection.”
I looked at Varania again “Okay, I will release you from it, but you need to calm down, this is what your master experienced, I think you have found the answer why your master was in danger.”
Varania didn’t open her mouth for a single word, but seeing her on the floor being pushed down, like being pushed with tons of weight, made me feel pity for her. I immediately canceled the skill of the shop, from what I had learnt from Aella. In a second, Varania freed from the force, and stood up again. She walked toward the counter, and took a seat without any words, and took a sip of her drink.
Aella and Noella suddenly put 5 gold coins at the counter…
“Methinks we shall excuse ourself…” Immediately they went to the front door, in front of it Aella said “Next time, I will bring mine master in here..” and closed the door.
I took the gold coins, and cleaned the dishes on the table. While I wanted to take the dishes, Varania opened her mouth with a small tone.
“You better mop the floor too.”
“Why?” I asked.
“They leaked some of it..”
“Leaked? You mean they were sweating..”
“No, I mean leak on the bottom..”
“Leak on the bottom?” Don’t tell me they..
I looked at the floor, and it was true like she said, not just on the floor, it was on the chair, they sat too. When I wanted to grab the mop from the back, I heard something disturbing and unbelieve from her.
“You don’t want to lick?”
“WHAT!”
“I thought humans had fallen in love with elves. So they did not waste everything from them. And the elves before were the special ones, they were priestesses, even the high one, you know that priestesses always protect their chastity. Therefore, the water from them was being chased a lot humans.”
“I am not a freak like the humans you told…” I grabbed the mop and the cloth for wipe the table, especially the chairs.
After it, I mopped the floor, wiped the table and the chairs with the cloth. Again she said something disturbing.
“You really wasted it..”
I ignored her, and kept wiping it.
