Chapter 67 67 A kitten and snake

?

[OP: ]

Silver the pink snake was now before them, and she was smiling joyfully, which looked superrrrr adorable~!

Just imagine. A little pink snake with metallic scales shining under the light of the chandelier hanging in the middle of the room smiling at you.

Her deep silver eyes were so pure and filled with happiness that they seemed to spark something deep inside one's heart just meeting them.

They were just too… pretty. And she was too.

And seeing how she greeted every one of them, she knew more manners than their little kitten.

"Sil, help me here please."

<Yei~.>

Nes asked her to help her with the rice box and Silver lifted the box with a telekinesis skill.

"Hello, Mister Raz~!"

And then she rubbed his fur, patted his head, and even wanted to hug him but he was glued to El's lap. He didn't want to go to some strange girl.

<Nyaaaaa! Who's this? Where did you pick up someone like her?! And why is someone like this in such a small place?>

He was examining her for a moment and he was surprised to see her status window, well, anyone would be surprised to see it. She was a rare being in the Worldline and even someone like him had met few of her kind.

So, on a planet without any actual fairies, how can there be a half fairy, was beyond his imagination.

"Our first friend, Agnes. We just met a while ago. Isn't she amazing?"

El smiled at her little kitten and then looked at the new pink snake that was also smiling at her.

"Hello, cutie. You are Nes's friend?"

[ "Yessssss~. I'm her friend, partner, helper, and older sister~!" ]

She was a dimensional merchant and she herself was a very rare case of a very rare species.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt

She was one of a kind in her race since their race itself was centered around death, gloom, and dread. But, she was a stark contradiction to that.

Still, all species had their own language and they couldn't use their skills too openly when they were on some smaller planet like this one.

There were restrictions on dimensional merchants and one of them was when they become someone's exclusive merchant, they couldn't easily communicate with anyone else other than their contractor when they were called by them.

That was the reason Raz couldn't talk with Eva, and he was a lazy kitten so he never even tried using Mana speech like Silver did just now.

It would put a lot of strain on him and shorten the time they could be with their contractors. And, she preferred staying with them more than being able to communicate with someone other than them.

The same was true for Silver, but, she didn't mind the strain or time limits. She could stay for longer than Raz since she was actually the lowest-grade merchant and perticulerly someone that was not closely connected to the market as he was.

These merchants and market stuff was actually a little complicated topic that didn't need much explanation right now so we should leave it to the experts.

She will explain it when she finds it necessary.

"There's no need to use Mana speech, little one. Just speak normally. We will understand."

<Ptsssss? Will you understand my tongue?>

"Yup. I have a special innate skill."

<Ohhhhhhh~! Are you one of those verrrrrrrrrry rare people with universal language skills~? Or maybe someone with an even rare system-supported interpersonal communication skill~?>

[ "What do you think?" ]

El used her link skill's communication ability and spoke directly into her head as she did with the orcs. It really was a very useful skill if it allowed them to communicate with practically anyone in addition to allowing them to understand anything anyone said.

<Ohhhhhhh~! Wowyyyyyyy~.>

Of course, it was at the cost of her Mana that drained depending on the communication target so, just like how those few words to Silver almost depleted half of her Mana, it was obviously not something she could use when dealing with beings on her level. And absolutely not when dealing with someone on their little kitten's level.

<Nya, she's my contractor. She's obviously amazing~.>

He stood up on his back paws in her lap and held his head high with his chest out.

This one was proud of his contractors. And before a fellow merchant, he couldn't help but show it off.

<Hehehehe. Yes~. She's amazing~. And hello~. I'm Silver. It's nice to meet you~.>

She came down and greeted Raz and since the two merchants were talking now, Nes also sat down on their comfortable bed.

<Hello, nya. I'm Azrail. First-grade silver rank. Worldline #369HOA.>

His greeting was the usual way a dimensional merchant greeted another merchant. With their original ID, then their ranks, and then the core area of their activity or the place they lived in.

His rank was good but not that high, a perfect good kind of average would be a good way of describing it. However, the place he lived in could be called one of the core areas in the entire Worldline.

<Oh~! Ptssssss~. You are from Genesis Flux too~? My uncle lives there~!>

From how she didn't tell him her rank and the core area of her activity as they traditionally do, he had at least figured out she was different from the usual bunch of merchants. And, since she was saying her 'uncle' lived in one of the most high-class places of the Worldline, he couldn't help his interest in this little snake anymore.

<Your uncle, nya? Can I know his name? I might have heard of him before.>

Oh he humbly asked that but, this basted knew almost every single person that lived in all the important parts of the Worldline.

He had specifically set aside a time every week in his schedule just to memorize every single person that was dying or being born in those marked places.

There was no way he wouldn't know someone that was most probably also a dimensional merchant.

But… the little kitten was in for a huge surprise.

<Yessssssss~. His name is Reasties~. He is probably famous too from how he boasts things~. Hehe. Mama always says he's exaggerating though. Ptssssss~.>

She was cheerful, her answer was cheerful, her contractor Nes had finished her rice box so she was now also paying attention to what was going on, but… there was a deep smirk on El's face, Lucy was sighing with a smile as if he had seen something funny, and, what he had found funny, was their stunned little kitten's current reaction.

<Nyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…?>

His mouth was wide open as he looked at her still cheerfully smiling face. And it was as if he had been petrified. He didn't move and just continued looking at her with open mouth… until El closed it with her hand.

<Nyaaaaa… the <Merchant of original grimoire> is your uncle?>

He was back to his senses now, and the look he gave to his El, that look of absurdity asking what was all this, and if she already knew about all this or not. And El just gave him a blank calm smile, clarifying nothing at all.

<Ptsssssss~. Yeiiiiiii~. He sells books~. Looks like he really is famous if even a cute kitty knows him~.>

"Ptffff."

Lucy couldn't hold back his laughter when she called him a cute kitty. Cute kitty! Hahahah!

But Raz was even more dumbfounded by how she called one of the leading merchants in the entire fkin Worldline… a bookseller.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

Still, there was a question he had to ask even though his mind had already confirmed it.

<Then… Lady Silver… is <Devourer of infinite elements>, your mother?>

The way he suddenly addressed her respectfully was too funny to not just Lucy but both of them and though Nes didn't know what they were talking about, she found Raz's expressions funny and cute so she just continued watching him play with his cute little partner.

And Eva was out of this entire loop since she already knew whatever was happening, was extraordinary and beyond her understanding. So, she was preparing their dinner table

But Raz. Oh damn, he was almost having another shock of his lifetime and was making a kind of funny faces that were too hard to not laugh at.

Hahaha, just think about a little chubby white kitten almost placing one hand on his heart and the other on his mouth, looking at the joyful smiling little snake.

It was adorably funny~.

<Yessssssssss~. Ptssssss. That's my mama~. I didn't know mama was famous too, hehe.>

As soon as he heard the words 'was famous too', his starry eyes became wide and he was almost about to curse out loud… but he controlled himself, took a deep breath, and looked back at the person caressing him.

<You knew- >

"Later. It's a long talk."

El knew what he wanted to talk about was a very, very long and complicated topic that even she couldn't explain to him alone.

Lucy and her would have to do it together, and in a place that was safe for that kind of conversation.

So…

"Alright, everyone. The dinner is served."

They all heard Eva's announcement and looked back at the big table full of delicious-looking things that instantly made not just Nes, and Raz, but every one of them including their new friend Silver drool with hunger.

It was their dinner time, they would talk for a while, discuss what they were going to do starting tomorrow and share info about this city, the academy, the magic, and the things about each other.

For the following week, they would form a strong bond and even form a merchant contract with Silver.

They would continue their basic daily training, play games, do some research on past events, and prepare for the tests for the Adventurer license.

They had most of the things planned out and most, if not all of it, would go according to what they wanted.

They had just arrived in this capital city of this great empire, so… it was, hopefully, time for coming out of the broad spectrum of the Worldline and see what the world they are in, how it looks, and what the sociocultural elements of it are.

And of course, how the 'people' perceive the Worldline, the skills, the system, and the Magic and unique martial arts.

We had seen the faraway sun on the horizon, but its beauty is only perceived in true meaning when we know the golden light it casts under our very feet.

Right?
