Chapter 28: Chapter 28 – Second Task!!
The next few days Feng kept running into an unwanted person. He kept popping everywhere she went. If this went on, she feared that she might lose control and hit him hard.
After getting ready for the day, she silently peaked out the door. “Coast clear,” she sighed and straightened up. “Kids ready for a walk on this pleasant day,”
Ethan’s eyes narrowed. “Not kids, Ethan and Aiden,”
“Yes, yes, Ethan and Aiden lets go before he comes....” as soon as she said this, a white-haired man stepped in front of her with a surprised expression.
“oh what a coincidence, I believe we are fated to meet miss Feng. I never expected to meet you here, miss,” Yubiri smiled gently.
‘You sure buddy; you have been stalking us for the past two days without fail.’ Feng bit the insides of her cheeks. ‘Calm down, don’t hit him, Feng. Lady Hiliana is fond of this idiot and he might easily kill you with a snap of his fingers.’ She mentally calmed herself. “Sire Yu, I don’t believe in fate at all. We shall be on our way,” she pulled the two behind her swiftly.
“Wait Miss Feng, I have something to talk to you about,”
.....
“I don’t have time today. Maybe later..” Feng ushered the boys who were glaring at the guy to walk faster.
“It’s about you brothers,”
She paused and glanced back with her brows raised. “About them?”
“Yes, I believe they have great talent in magic. Once they manifest, they might even become great mage like Yubiri himself. If you would like, I could help them get into a good magic school to hone their talents.” he said with a wide smile but the way he looked at both Ethan and Aiden was predatory.
Feng noticed all his minute change in expressions. ‘is that why he is so keen on getting in our way? Because he is jealous of Ethan’s and Aiden’s talent. You can help it buddy, they are casts of this game like you are. Wait... Shit, we are in deeper shit that I expected,’ if this image was jealous of the twins he might even try to hurt them. She subtly pulled the boys behind her and glared at him. “Sire thank you for you kind offer but I would have to decline. I have no wish to do so,”
She hastened her steps and literally ran away from him. “shit, shit, shit....” she glanced back to see that guy looking at her with a crocked smile. “We are so in trouble,”
Ethan tightened her hold. “It’s okay, we are here.”
“Yes, we can protect you,” Aiden sweetly smirked at her.
“aww my babies, why are you both so cute?” she knelt down and kissed their cheeks. “But I don’t need you both to get involved. That guy is dangerous, soo dangerous that he can kill me with a snap like Thanos,”
“Thanos? Who is that?” Ethan said with a knowing look.
“N-no one.....” Feng stuttered. ‘Why do I keep messing up again and again? Darn, thankfully I didn’t trigger a self destruct,’ she smiled widely at them both. “Why don’t we go meet Elle?”
“No, spend time with us alone. Don’t want anyone else,” Ethan mumbled, hugging her waist.
“But she might pout and huff if she found out we went alone,” Feng whispered, patting his head.
Aiden glanced up with his puppy dog face. “Please~”
“Fine... you can’t always use your cuteness to change my mind. One day you both will get older.” Feng chided.
“Then we will use our handsomeness to change your mind,” Ethan said confidently.
Chuckling, Feng had a happy time walking on deck. The winds were not that intense today and the sun was hidden behind the clouds, casting bright light without any heat. She thoroughly enjoyed it.
They went to the back of the ship and leaned down. This boat was similar to a modern ship but instead of a propeller, it had a weird sign on the back of the ship. It was slowly rotating, pushing the ship forward. ‘Magic, huh? It’s so convenient, there isn’t much technological advancement, but the magic has advanced a lot here.’
As she was thinking this, a small mechanical chime sounded again. ‘so soon!!’
‘{Adventurer, your next task is here.
Level: 1 [basic]
Task: help Aiden and Ethan manifest.
Tim limit: 3 days.
Time remaining: 23 hrs: 1438 minutes
If this task is not finished in the time limit, then it will directly lead to self destruction.
Good luck}
A small counter started, counting down her timing.
Fen slowly took a breath to calm her mind. ‘First, I need information about manifesting. Maybe Lady Hiliana might have books that might help,’ she glanced at the twins. “Can we go back?”
Sensing her change in mood, they both agreed.
Feng hurriedly went over to lady Hiliana’s room and asked her if she had any book related to it.
“Manifestation? How can I be so ignorant? You are in the prime age to manifest your magic. I completely forget about it.” lady Hiliana ordered her grandson Alvin to bring her some of his books.
Alvin came back from his study with three books in total, “it’s not that hard, but you need someone close when you manifest. So read through the pre manifestation symptoms,” he kindly reminded her.
“Got it,” Feng happily ran back to their room hugging the books to her bosom. ‘I will definitely make sure to help manifest them,’
