章 95: Old Crow
I look at my spear that glows with power. The silver light the spear releases matches my hair. This spear not only can summon five elements (Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, and Lightning), it also can pierce a dense metal like Mithril from my world.
The rune from the Suikoden World is really a wonder. If used correctly, you can use the Fire Rune to do two things. Summon a fire to attack the enemy or to burn your enemy every time you hit them. I call it the passive and active effect of the Fire Rune.
While not as strong as the one you attach to your body, the rune is still powerful enough to create a torrent of fire that can melt rock in a few seconds. Sadly, it needs to recharge every time it makes a strong attack like that.
Luckily four other elements can replace it while it is recharging.
Anyway, the spear changed color from purple to silver because of the rune I carved on the spear. It was the one that increased the piercing ability of the spear to a higher level. Not only that, but the rune also binds the spear to me, making it basically indestructible. Well, not indestructible, but rather as long as I'm alive, it will self-repair. It can take from one second to one month. It depends on the damage it receives.
This self-repaired rune is the one that makes it change color from purple to silver. It changes according to my mana, and it looks like my mana has a silver color, which is good. I like silver.
"Cookies"
I snap from my thoughts when I hear Ophis's voice. Ah, that's right, I promised her to make cookies.
"Sorry about that, come on. I will bake you some cookies."
"En"
Lucina and I walk to the kitchen, followed by Kuroka and Ophis. I cast a cleaning spell for both Lucina and me before we arrived at the kitchen.
~A few minutes later~
"You know, you could become a famous blacksmith if you decide to sell your creation."
I look at Kuroka, who is sitting in front of the kitchen counter while eating the cookies I just baked, and says.
"Well, I don't want to do it. My wife and I are content with what we have. We don't want the fame that will ruin our peaceful life."
"Huh. I guess some people only want peace in their life."
"Yup, we only want to be left alone. However, don't see our passiveness as a weakness. We will fight anyone who tries to destroy our peace."
Kuroka nods her head in understanding and says.
"Yeah. I can relate to that."
I nod my head as I know she also has the same experience. Kuroka only wishes to be left alone with her little sister, but sadly her so-called master did not acknowledge her wishes, and he paid the price.
"That is your wish, huh, Kuroka?"
"Nya?"
"That is your wish to be left alone with your little sister Shirone in peace."
Kuroka looked at me with a surprised expression before nodding her head.
"Yes. Sadly reality decides otherwise."
"So now, you are separated from your loved one because of the decision of the other, not of your own."
"Yes"
I nod at her in sympathy before passing another batch of cookies to Ophis and Kuroka. That dragon really likes to eat.
"You know~ If you keep feeding me cookies, I will get fat, nya~."
"Heh. I'm not feeding you. I only bake the cookies. You are the one that cannot hold your urge to eat it."
"Because it is so delicious, nya!"
"Thank you."
I ignore the purring sound of Kuroka every time she takes a bite of my cookies. I know that my cookies are delicious, but I never thought that they would make her purr like the cat she is.
"Anyway! Can I ask the reason why you and Lady Lucina came to Japan?"
"You don't think we are natives of Japan?"
"Fufufufu, while Vali-kun keeps saying I'm an idiot cat, I'm not an idiot, you know? You have the face of European people, nya~ You and Lady Lucina. Maybe from Sweden or Finland?"
"Nope."
"Eh~ Your name is the name of British people, but your face is the face from Scandinavia. It isn't very clear. Maybe from Norway?"
"Nope. Sorry, I cannot tell you about our origin."
"Mou~ Can't or Won't?"
"Yes"
I chuckle a little when I see her pouting.
"You have not yet answered my question."
"We come here for vacation."
"Vacation?"
"Yup. We want to have time relaxing and enjoy the peaceful time we have here."
"I can show you guys around if you want?"
I look at Lucina, who nods her head, saying that she doesn't mind more company, especially with Ophis that, for some reason, is really attached to Lucina and me.
"Sure. We don't mind. However, before we go, are there some places where you can buy an exotic metal?"
"What kind of exotic metal?"
"The magical kind."
"Well… There is one person that might be interested in that. However, I must tell you that he is… an odd individual."
Who? I begin to think about who Kuroka is thinking right now. An odd individual that Kuroka knows… Azazel?
"Azazel?"
"You are correct, nya!"
"I guess we can meet him. Is he in Japan right now?"
"Yup. He is the teacher at Kuoh Academy right now. We can visit him there, nya~."
"Are you okay with that? You are a wanted criminal, you know? For your past and for joining the Khaos Brigade."
"Don't worry. Even when Vali declares he is a Khaos Brigade member, Azazel still sees him as his son. He can hide me or the other from the devil and angels. While he is a pervert, he is a genius."
"Fair enough. When do we go?"
"Up to you."
"How about now? Tomorrow I want to visit a local hot spring."
"Sure!"
We then walk to the exit outside the mansion. While it is a bit risky meeting Azazel when the canon is already starting, he is the only person I can think of to teach me the teleportation spell. I can also ask him for other spells as well.
Anyway, after we walk away from my pocket dimension, Kuroka creates a massive magic circle that shines for a second before I can feel my body being pulled in by something.
A few seconds later, we are in a different place altogether. Look like we are inside a mansion of some sort. However, I stop looking around when I see a man in his twenties with black hair and golden bangs. He also has a black goatee.
However, what makes Lucina and I gaping at him is that he gropes a pillow with the face of a woman on it. It was a body pillow of Gabriel, one of the seraphs in heaven. When he notices our presence, he hides the pillow behind his body and looks at us as if nothing is wrong.
"Kuroka! What can I do for you?"
If not for my knowledge of this world first hand, I would think that the man in front of me is nothing but a perverted old man. Sadly, he is a powerful perverted old man. He is still a pervert, but at least he is powerful enough that many people will not question his fetish.
