Capítulo 55: chapter 55
' this is my chance!!!'
Now that her brother won't be able to chase after her, Maitea can take this one in a life time opportunity to shake away the weakling man holding her and flee.
If she managed to reach the nearby city, then using a crystal gate to teleport to some other cities, her brother can't stop her.
As Jennings let his gourd down, dumbfounded to see his used-to-be friend turning to a mist. Maitea easily pushed Jennings and instantly dashed away toward the other side of the forest.
"NO! Maitea wait!!"
He lost her....
' WHY IS EVERYONE SO STUPIDLY FAST?!!!!!'
For being the only normal main character in this novel, Jennings will suffer a lot.
He quickly stood to follow behind her, but his steps came to a halt after hearing the little girl's screams from the direction she fled to.
"Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"
As if her life depended on that, Maitea ran towards Jennings with her eyes tightly shut and her head hang down. Jennings did not have the chance to be surprised as Maitea launched at him like a bullet, causing them to fall again in the river.
' I don't understand anything anymore.....'
The nine years old child escaped from her home to god knows where, turned her brother to fog and now clinging on the man she was supposed to run from.
" a Roro jumped on me!!!!!!"
Maitea cried as clung to Jennings's waist with trembling hands.
'Roro? What is that?'
Jennings patted the shivering young Love on her back trying to soothe her, and then, he could see the so-called Roro crawling on her back.
'a lizard. Roro is .......a lizard?'
With a blank expression, Jennings caught the green lizard and was about to toss it aside when a thought crossed his mind.
'Wait! If I just removed it then she will run again..'
He looked at the struggling lizard in his hand as he asked:" by the way little Ma, what happened to Bernard ".
Shouldn't they start panicking? A whole person has turned to black fog in front of their eyes while they were calmly chilling in the water.
" brother Ba is fine. Please take it away!"
Well, if Maitea said he was fine then he is fine. After all, Bernard was her martial brother, she should be the person the most worried about him.
Jennings fixed Maitea in his embrace, and stood while still holding the lizard. He walked towards the dark cloud and grabbed the black ball that was imitating that fog.
' I guess he is trapped inside or something. For now, I need to make sure Maitea doesn't escape'
Noticing his actions, Maitea asked bewildered:" your majesty, won't you throw the Roro away?"
"I will shove it inside your clothes if you tried to run again "
Maitea instantly flinched. With the little on his arms, a black ball in his hand and a lizard in the other, Jennings headed back to the house at the top of the hill.
******
It has been a while since they returned back, Jennings placed the lizard under a cup on the dining table next to Maitea, as he peeled some fruits and fed the young girl that hadn't eaten anything for a couple of days.
Although, she doesn't have an appetite, with the threat of a gross ugly green lizard can Maitea afford to be stubborn?
-Poof!
Suddenly, the black ball that was placed on the couch at the living room imitated a thicker wave of dark fog, revealing Bernard after it cleared a bit.
" I fucking hate worms!!!"
He was gasping for breath, covered in sand with his clothes half unfastened. After cursing certain worms for a few moments, Bernard finally realized where he was. He quickly walked to where he can sense the presence of living beings.
"Little Ma!!"
Maitea did not answer, as she settled with lowering her head and avoiding his eyes. Seeing her reaction, Bernard was filled with uneasiness.
< baby Ma.....why are you doing this>
' eh?..'
< I, I just want master back >
' WHAT ARE THEY SAYING?!!!'
For some reason, these two siblings started talking in a foreign language. Even for an Emperor that is supposed to know many languages, this one was completely un-understandable.
< but Maitea, this was bound to happen! master has been preparing us for this from the beginning >
< no! This is too early, we could have avoided this- I could have! Aren't I supposed to die first!! Then why is master leaving before me! >
< MAITEA!!>
He couldn't understand what they were talking about, but Jennings could see from their faces that Bernard was trying to talk some sense into her, while she said something she should and now he is angry.
< I was happy that until the end I will live with brothers and master together. But what is the point now! if everyone is leaving, then I will just bring them back! >
< baby girl, this is master's decision, there is nothing we can do >
< I won't believe that.....until I hear it from his mouth, I won't believe that!! >
How can she accept the fact that her master decided to not stay with, even though he promised to stay to the end?
< I can't let you go there, it's too dangerous. Even if I were to protect you, your body won't be able to handle such high mana pressure >
The Dead Land, the centre of the black snow incident. A place where mana pressure was too high for sensitive living beings.
< but I can't ignore a chance that a gate could be used >
< then I will go by myself, you trust your brother, right? Won't you entrust this task to me? >
< what about brother Ba's work?! I can't let brother leave his work! >
Bernard's hand were already full with all the responsibilities he was assigned to. Where can he find the time to satisfy a whiney girl's needy request?
< then, what do you think? Can baby Ma do them for me? >
