Chapter 155: A different person (2/2)
came up with a Superior Air Mobility additional stats. And increase the Deity and Owner's air maneuverability. In that sense, it was a good upgrade for some owners who could fly.
After they ordered it, Yman asked sistela 'why she chose this type of wings and not the Fairy-Like Wings or the Nix Series Wings.'
She told him that it could make her fly faster. She always lost when she tried to chase something.
Like for example the water sprite in the academy, and then the little Xelestial bird of Cinder. Sistela felt she was bullied by those creatures. Now she can show off when they meet again.
And that's her reason.
”I-Is it your first time here?”
Suddenly, the silence between them was cast away when Ella unexpectedly asked him. Though Ella was still shy because of what happened last night. She needed to distract him from the thought of meat and remind him that she was the priority here.
In any case, this person would not even bother saying a thing! She already forgets if this person was capable of talking or not.
After hearing her question, Yman glanced at her and saw her glancing at him while slightly bending her body forward with her hands on her back. Some strands of her hair dangled on her face. While warm sunlight caressed her skin. Paired with a white dress which was adorned with small crystals. She even more dazzling this morning.
He could not help to be in trance for a moment before opening his mouth.
Seemingly, she was peeking at his face.
”Mhm, it is.” His response.
”Hmph,” this person is too measured with his reply. She thought after pursing her mouth.
He noticed her slight irritation from his reply but did not give much thought to it. He then opened his mouth once again when he remembered he forgot to ask why she needed a large number of potions.
”Uh, by the way, My Lady, what is—”
”Oiii!”
”Ha?”
Before he completed his words, he was stopped when she suddenly called out with an uncertain call at him.
”I-I mean just call me with my name. I-It's more casual that way and… no one will figure that you are my bodyguard in that sense.”
He thought that she was right. After all, they would be attending the academy soon, and he would be going to be an undercover agent bodyguard. At least they needed to act like a friend. (LoL)
”Ah, I see. You're right. Sorry, that was careless of me… er… Mad—Miss Artist?”
'Regardless, what's her name again?' He thought with a puzzled face. He forgot as he used to call her Mad lass artist inside the painting!
”.....”
Ella fell silent. She couldn't believe that someone had dared to forget her name. And it was her bodyguard to boot! On top of that, he slipped his tongue. She was 101% certain that she heard the word 'Mad' before the 'Miss'.
With a face beyond crying, she was looking at him with an angry face.
”Aaaah, this going to be troublesome,” he mumbled while scratching his face. In any case, he could not let her get angry with him.
'My Deity help! I need backup pretty fast!' He used thought communication with his trusted partner.
Sistela who was currently enjoying herself flapping her wings suddenly went to a stop.
she asked via thought process also.
He told her the situation which Sistela understood and told him her real name based on what was recorded in her data.
'I see, thank you, My Deity!'
”Then, I call you Rea then…”
”.....”
'Is he a shameless man?' Ella was surprised. This person went directly into asking of calling her with a shortcut name which only applied to someone very close to her. Or know her from childhood.
For Yman though, 'it is convenient to call someone in an easy to remember 'name'.No need to waste more brain juices just by remembering someone's name. And Rea was a good name. I believe.'
Sighed.
She didn't argue any further and agreed as they already in front of the stall where potions lined neatly depending on color. However, that 'Mad' he said still bothering her.
”Oh, a handsome Young Man and a beautiful Young Miss. Are you perhaps looking for high-quality potions?”
A middle-aged man said while keeping his composed smile on his face.
Seeing the two rich-looking young people in front of him, the vendor secretly grinned.
