Chapter 50
Love is a feeling that makes you change. Change the way you talk.
Change the way you eat. Change the way you dress.
But above all others, change the way you life.
Myself
SORRY ABOUT SOME OF THE SEXUAL CONTENTS IN THIS CHAPTER. IT'S MERELY FOR COMEDIC PURPOSE, TRUST ME.
Later that night, Frea and Elraven are enjoying some cups of tea before doing their 'ritual'....
"Hm, your tea is good, Elraven. I never knew that you're such a good tea maker" The soul linker praised her lover, who could be seen smiling. "Why, thank you. Whenever I had time, I always try to practice making tea. Although it's merely because of a...memory, I guess" The gunslinger replied.
The answer makes Frea curious, "What memory?".
Before telling his story, Elraven took a deep breath, "Well, around three years ago, during my training as gunslinger, I fell asleep after a long day of combat trial. During that sleep, I dreamed about the temple in the sky again. I was preparing a tea for the white haired girl. She took a sip and told me it was good, just like you did just a while ago. Since that day, I tried to make a tea as...good as possible whenever I had a free time".
Elraven stopped the for a second to gave his soul linker a passionate look and said, "Come to think of it...the white haired woman kinda look like you. But...she's a bit younger and her hair is not as long as you are now". Frea giggled listening her lover honest comment.
"Wow.....that was an honest confession from you. Do you remember when I said I dreamed about a temple in the sky too several days ago?".
"Yes, why?"
"Actually, although I said to Fiorentin and the other I only saw a temple shined by the sun's bright light, I...didn't tell them the real thing I saw. Actually, I also saw a...valkyrie"
"Valkyrie? The messenger warrior of gods?"
"Yes. I saw a Valkyrie standing in the temple with her weapon on her hand. It seems as if...she is ready to fight someone. I don't know who, though".
"Wow, it's weird how we dreamed of almost a same thing, huh? It's as if you and I have known each other before in our previous lifetime".
"Who knows?" Frea giggled before her eyes meets Elraven's and then they.....(Can't be said here. This story is rated T not M, sorry ^^).
At the same time, in the outside of the temple....
Kirigi, Wendy, Sasha, and Clyde are sitting quietly behind the trees, hanging out.
"Hey, since your vice-captain and our leader is....well, you know....doing the so called ritual, does that mean a join forces between Midgard and Schwaltzvalt Republic is not a mere dream?" Kirigi opened the conversation.
"Well, yeah. I don't see why not. If I'm not mistaken, before the fall of Rachel six years ago and Valdomir started attacking Midgard five years ago, Juno and Midgard were on a good terms and ready to talk about alliance, but Valdomir pretty much ruined that plan" Clyde answered seriously because Sasha was too busy imagining things about Elraven, so she's currently unavailable to answer any kind of question.
"If that is the case, I wonder why Alexandria didn't quickly ask for the alliance from Juno?" Wendy voiced her question.
"It's because of the elders of Juno, and mainly the higher ups in Schwaltzvalt Republic prefer not to lend the military of Einbroch's power for some reasons" Clyde answered again.
"What reason?" The stalker replied.
"...Well, this is going to be a long story so just listen, OK?"
The ninja and the stalker nodded.
"Alright. In the land of Juno, among the countries up there, there is no doubt that Juno and Schwaltzvalt Republic are the two most influential countries in the sky. While Juno lies their power within their role as 'The Mediator' among the countries in the land of Juno itself, Schwaltzvalt Republic power is mostly based on their military and advanced technologies, mainly within the Military of Einbroch. Thus, making the two countries as the 'de facto' rulers in the land of the sky" The young gunslinger started his story.
"This status of being the 'de facto' rulers had been maintained ever since Schwaltzvalt Republic won the Andromeda, battle of the sky millennium years ago. For generations, Schwaltzvalt Republic had been successful on giving prosperity for their own people. Of course, having been in a proper life for so long, Schwaltzvalt Republic eventually planned to bond an alliance with Rune Midgard, in order to avoid several unnecessary occurrences in the near future, such as war".
Sasha finally paid her attention on her brother's explanation.
"But the two things I mentioned before pretty much ruined that plan. Right now, Schwaltzvalt Republic
are concentrating on strengthen ourself rather than making an alliance. How unfortunate...." Clyde closed his story, much to the dismay of Wendy and Kirigi.
"Oh, by the way, do you think our leader and your vice-captain will eventually married?" Kirigi tried to break the silence.
Sasha stood up and shouted, " What?!!! Married?!!!".
"Yes. They pretty much enjoying their time together, right? I wouldn't be surprise if they eventually come into marriage and live happily ever after" Wendy continued. Her statement made Sasha trembles. "Hey, hey! Sasha, calm down, OK?" Clyde tried to comfort his sister, but much to his surprise, Sasha quickly pulled her Gate Keeper-DD.
"I won't let the marriage happen!!! I don't care if she is as beautiful as a goddess, Frea will have to cross over my dead body if she wants vice-captain Elraven!!!! I will stop the ritual, right now!!!" Sasha roared as she rushes to the temple. "For god sake!!! Sasha, stop!!!!" Clyde quickly chases his sister, leaving Wendy and Kirigi all by themselves.
"100,000 zenny the ritual is off" Wendy said.
"OK, 100,000 zenny they will finish the ritual" Kirigi replied.
At the exact same time, in Fiorentin's room....
Fiorentin buried her face down to her pillow, trying to find an explanation for herself. She could hear her heart beating so fast. Her face is red like a microwave.
"Why is my heart beating so fast? Just because a dance?!! A dance?!! Damn you, Elraven!!! Ever since meeting you I've got this heady feeling all over the place in my head!!! Aaaaarggh!!!! Think, Fiorentin!!! Think!!!! It's not like you to be annoyed just because one man!! ".
Fiorentin slowly cool herself down and dawdling on her bed as her mind wonders.
"I wonder if I'm experiencing a coming of age? Maybe that's the logical reason? I've been busy with Sagramore in the last five years. I've never been so close to a man before....but, wait!!! What am I thinking? I have Sir Alphard, right? He's at my age. He is so gentle, caring, handsome, strong, and dependable. He is prefect!!! He is different with Elraven. Although Elraven is insanely strong, he is ignorant!! He is stupid, he has a goofy face whenever he smiles. And not to mention he often acts like an older brother to me!! Meh, what kind of older brother are you?!! Yeah, screw Elraven!! He is busy making love with Frea anyway!! Yes, that's right!!".
Fiorentin puts a winning smile on her face proudly, but her face began to turn sad when she realizes something.
"But...even if I say so...why is my heart feels so much pain just because thinking of that two lovers together? While it's true that Sir Alphard is perfect, I always feel that I couldn't become myself whenever I see him. I had to act all loyal and mighty. But Elraven....I feel free whenever I was near him. I hate to say this, but he's right, I could act bratty near him. It's as if...whenever I see him I would want him to pay his attention to me...".
Fiorentin stop the dawdling and slowly tries to fine herself a conclusion.
"What is this feeling? This feeling....makes me unable to forget his face. Is this....love?....NO! NO! NO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! No way!! No chance in hell I fell for him!!! That would be the last thing ever happened in this world!!!".
Fiorentin, with fire on her eyes, trying to ensure herself of her feelings. She rose and bashed her head to the pillow several times, trying to regain control of herself.
"No way!! I'm not in love!! I'm not in love!!! This feeling...I believe I was just confused, but how do I prove it?.....Wait a second!! He..recited me a poem, right?! If I ask him again and he accepts, and I don't feel anything after that...that means I'm not in love!! Yes, let's do that!!!".
Having settled her feelings (for now), Fiorentin rushes to Elraven's room.
Meanwhile, in Felicia's room....
George, Felicia, and Olivia are resting after enjoying their dinner. Felicia was reading a book while George and Olivia, who supposed to be on the monks class, having their dirty talks.
"Hey, George. What do you think Elraven and Frea are doing now?".
"Er...doing their so called ritual, I believe. God, why don't they just say it, making love or making out?"
"Yeah, or soul linking!"
George and Olivia burst into laughter as Felicia shakes her head, trying to get her attention out of her sister's and the champion's conversation.
"I hope they won't make noise, George"
"No, their mouths will be busy doing something else"
Again, George and Olivia let out a long laugh. Felicia tried her best not to listen.
"Say Olivia, if Frea has a baby.... do u think El will take full responsibility?"
"Well, Frea told us Elraven already has pledged his responsibility if their 'ritual' resulting in something"
"Something? You mean pleasure?"
The high priest and the champion laughed again. Felicia started to grow weary of their conversations.
"But Olivia, I kinda wonder in one thing, to be honest"
"What is it?"
"Frea can't see anything, right?"
"Yes"
"Does that mean Elraven has to do all the deeds to...please her?"
"Well, I don't think you will need to see to please yourself, you don't need your eyes to do your natural skills"
"What skills? Sex skills?"
"Sound like sex kills!"
The two childhood laugh again. Felicia starting to lose her patient.
"But I'm not sure....George, I've got an idea!!"
"What?"
"Let's peek on them!!!"
"What?!!!" Felicia was the one who shouted and widened her eyes in disbelieve. "That's awesome!! Let's do that!! I'm sure Elraven won't notice since he will be busy!!" George responded enthusiastically.
"No!! This has gone far enough!! I won't let you do that!!!" Felicia, with a red face, trying to stop her sister and her comrade.
"Ow, come one, Felicia!! You've never done it, too!! Just like us!! We only want to have some 'preview' of making out, you know?" Olivia tried to reason with her sister.
"No reasoning!! Sharing love is a sacred ritual. No one should interfere, much less peeking!! That is disgusting!!!" Felicia roared her ideals.
"Well, but I don't think so! George, get a rope!!" The high priest ordered her friend as she readied herself. George grinned and quickly got a rope as ordered. Olivia and George slowly cornered Felicia.
"What? What are you two doing? What are you going to do?" Felicia asked in worry.
"Well, since you won't let us go, I guess we don't have any other choice than...rendering you powerless, sister. Don't worry, it's not going to hurt that much" The high priest devilishly explained.
"We know your lance is broken and you didn't bring your saber with you, so...." George and Olivia looked at each other, and nodded. "Attack!!!!!!" They shouted in unison as Felicia dropped her jaw and
get knocked to the floor. George quickly tied her legs together as Olivia tied her arms behind her back.
"Stop it!! Stop it!! This is ridiculous, Olivia!!! Untie me!! Untie m..mppphh!!!" Olivia gagged her sister's mouth before Felicia could plead. "I'm sorry, Felicia. I'll free you once we're done" Olivia and George lift the paladin and hide her in the closet, leaving her struggling for her freedom.
"Now, let's go shall we, George?".
"Absolutely!"
And there goes the neighborhood.....
Meanwhile, in the barn....
Willy, Salvador, and Devi are sharing their thoughts.
Willy : Is it just me or our masters will have another chaos tonight?
Salvador : They will. Everything involving them is chaos anyway.
Devi : You know what? They really need to get laid, all of them.
Salvador : Damn right.
****

Will Kirigi or Wendy win their bet? Will Devi, Willy, and Salvador have anything to say? Stay tune for the next part of this story!!!
