27 The Pyramid and the Trial (1/2)
[Tomorrow]
Solo, Alice, and Luka were walking towards the Pyramid, yesterday some things happened.
Like when Luka wanted to find informations about Gnome and strangely Solo offered himself to find her, because while he was using Pesquisa in the castle, he found an eerily familiar reiatsu in the dungeons of the castle, it was Amira, and he didn't want to meet her again.
Then Alice became hungry again and accompanied Solo in the bed, to make out for all those days without sex.
And for last thing, Solo bought a cape with a hood because the sunlight was annoying to him and wanted to cover his eyes somehow from it.
Alice: Hmph… Another detour. But I'll tolerate it this time. The Sabasa King doesn't seem like a bad man. If it was done by one of my cute subordinates, I can't overlook it.
Luka and Solo were surprised that she didn't complained, and shrugged before going forward.
[Later]
They reached the Pyramid, which was a fourth of the size of Las Noches.
Luka: This is the Pyramid… It's bigger than I expected!
Solo: You are right…
Solo already sensed someone coming nearby and arrived in front of the Pyramid, near the group.
Female Soldier: this is the Pyramid… It's bigger than I expected!
Solo: 'Heh…'
Solo laughed a bit because both the stranger and Luka said the same thing with the same tone.
Luka: Excuse me… Do you have business in the Pyramid as well?
Female Soldier: I do… Who are you?
Luka: Err… Are you going to help the person caught in the Pyramid too?
Female Soldier: Eh…? There's someone caught inside?
Solo: 'Strange… I sense only monster reiatsu inside… While the girl has half monster reiatsu… Nah, she can't be the princess…'
Luka: Then what business do you have in the Pyramid?
Female Soldier: It's not important to you… Well, I don't want you to think I'm a thief trying to steal from the Pyramid or anything. I want to take the Dragon Seal Trial inside this Pyramid. I want to do it for my love…
Luka: For the one you love? A trial?
Solo: Well, no one cares, let's just enter and do shit and giggles… Alice, you aren't coming?
Solo noticed that Alice wasn't following them and asked.
Alice: There isn't any food inside the Pyramid, it's useless for me to enter.
Solo and Luka facepalmed and sighed.
Luka: Then, shall we go… What's your name, by the way?
Female Soldier: ...How rude. Shouldn't you introduce yourself first?
Solo: Just say it…
Sara: Alright… I'm Sara, I'm aiming to be the top swordswoman. But I'm still in training…
Luka: I'm Luka, I'm a Hero… Apprentice…
Solo: I'm Solo, an Espada, now let's go…
After their introductions, the three people entered into the Pyramid.
[Later]
They were walking in a narrow road, they were getting bored so Sara talked.
Sara: By the way Solo, was that silver haired woman your lover?
Solo: I don't have any idea, well, we reached the stage where we sleep together, but the relationship isn't still clear.
Luka: Now that I think about it… Did you say you were doing some trial for your lover?
Sara: ...Not my lover. It's a one-sided love right now… My love lives in isolation, devoted only to the sword… I doubt they even remember me…
Luka: I see… That sounds rough…
While they were talking, they encountered a Mummy Girl.
Mummy Girl: Humans undergoing the trial… If you wish to conti- OOF!!
