After paying our respects to God, it was ti to celebrate. There was no business left after that.
The ladies wearing wreaths wrapped their arms around their husbands tightly and cheerfully went toward the flower field.
The rchants, on the side of the road that passed nearby, displayed their goods and began selling them. Their goods included all sorts of stuff including simple ornants, food, and masks.
Luna wrapped her arm around mine as well and we went into the field of flowers. I staggered around as I tried to run in the flowery steppe. Luna let go of and cheerfully laughed out loud. She then jumped into the flowers. I had never seen Luna so excited before. How long had it been since she last saw this sea of flowers?
This land which had once brought her happiness and bliss now only contained damaged fragnts of her dreams. Luna finally got to see this land again. The happy and beautiful monts appeared by her side again. The elegant scents of the flowers and earth floated around her nose. The bliss was enough to make one remove all of their shackles and be as excited as they once were in the past.
I walked up to Lunas side. She tugged on my arm aggressively, dragging onto the ground. I fell on top of the flowers and looked at the dark-blue sky above blankly. The ground was warm, thanks to the sunlight, while the scent of the flowers around was more pronounced. It was as though we had extracted the sweet scents from it as it floated around us.
Luna held my hand tightly, laughed softly and said, My beloved, I used to particularly love taking an afternoon nap here. I would co here when I was free and take a nap in the comfortable warmth of the sun. It has been a long ti since I last lay on these flowers. I feel like Ive returned to the past this ti.
I turned my head to look at her, smiled, and asked, Do you want to have a nap now then?
No. She turned her head to the side to look at . She giggled softly and then reached her hand out to cup my face. With a smile, she said, Of course not. I do not have much ti to be with you, to begin with, my beloved, so sleeping here when you are with is a waste of ti. Being able to spend ti at your side like this is like a once-off short dream, huh?
I didnt deny it. I did look at Lunas eyes and give her a nod, though, because what she said was true. After this matter is resolved, we wont be able to be so intimate. Im going to be marrying Lucia, and Luna must stay by my side as my personal maid. But that is all she will be, a personal maid.
She will forever only remain as a personal maid.
So I really cherish this ti we have.
Luna ca over and gently rest her head on my chest. With a smile, she said, I do not ask for this to last forever. Just this short while is enough. This ti we have together has made happy enough and allowed to move on so that I am no longer tornted by the past. Now I will have sothing I can reminisce on in my gloomy life. In the future, when I recall the past, I will not feel hurt and hopeless again. I will have your warmth and breath at my side today, and that is enough.
I can only give you a mory, but even this mory is fake, you know?
That is enough. Luna laughed softly and continued, It is fine even if it is fake. I am fine as long as I have a mory, as I will definitely stay by your side in the future. My future will be very blissful. I am satisfied with just a blissful past. And thus, my life will be complete.
Dont you intend to stay? Your brother is here.
Luna shook her head as she looked at . She replied, No. I will do my best to co back and visit my brother, however; the vast flower fields here, as well as the village, cannot compare to even a single warm smile you give .
I looked at Luna, and an electric current ran into my heart. That line must be a winner if I used it on a girl. But Luna was the one that said it. The smile on Lunas face also told that she wasnt lying. Luna wasnt sweet-talking . She truly thought that way.
Luna
My beloved
Umm, although I dont really want to disturb you two, the young lady you brought along with you has run into so trouble out front of a store. It is because she doesnt know the language. Just as we were about to kiss, a voice spoke out to us from overhead.
Luna shrieked and jumped up. With her face red, she looked at her brother and exclaid, Brother! Can you please appear in a friendlier way next ti?! You scared to death!
Her brother nodded, and then said to , Sorry. I didnt want to disturb you two either, but your sister is in trouble.
I paused for a mont and then asked, Freya? What happened to her?
It seems like she wanted to buy sothing, only to find out she couldnt communicate and therefore is getting into an argunt at the store.
Ah, I forgot about the most important thing. Luna and I ca over here and got intimate while Freya didnt follow. It looks like she took action on her own.
We felt that we were being watched before, but we couldnt be sure since there were honestly far too many people. While we were aware that the Shadow Squad was definitely watching over us, they would never let us detect them. Consequently, the people watching us definitely had ulterior motives.
After we split up, Freya probably went to go and find a way to deal with it on her own. But I went and forgot, Freya doesnt know the elven language. Its dangerous for her to be in such a situation, but it doesnt look like shes alerted the enemies.
Luna and I headed over and quickly located Freya. She was standing in front of a store and had locked her eyes on sothing inside a cage. I leaned over to take a look and it was a dog.
It looked pretty much like regular dogs, except that dogs here have a characteristic that cats have, and that was tree climbing. I couldnt see anything special about the dog in the cage. Its fur-colour was mixed, too. It was just an ordinary dog, but Freya stared at it without shifting her gaze anywhere else. Her eyes showed that she really liked it.
Do you want it, Freya?
Yes, brother.
Freya then naturally pointed at the dog and said, Brother, can you buy it for ?
Oh I can but I never thought you liked dogs I paid and then brought the cage over.
The dog woke up from its slumber and opened its eyes. It looked at with a lifeless gaze and then lowered its head again.
Freya excitedly took the cage and then checked her surroundings. She then spoke really loudly, Lets call you Prince then. Ah brother, please teach a few sentences in the elven language.
What?
Prince where are you? Prince!, just those two.
Prince where are you? Prince.
Pr- Pr- Pr- where no Prince where are you? Prince! Freya repeated it a few tis. It wasnt hard to pronounce those two sentences, so Freya learnt them quickly.
After finishing her preparations she crouched down on the ground and opened the door of the cage. She then tugged the dogs ear hard.
The dog ran into the crowd due to the pain. Freya quickly chased it through the crowd, shouting, Prince, where are you?! Prince! Prince! Prince, where are you?!
Over ten pairs of eyes imdiately focused themselves on her. Wait, no, the entire venue went quiet and everyone instantly looked over towards her.
Luna and I imdiately knew what she was trying to do.
I noticed that the group wearing hoodies all imdiately looked over towards her when she shouted those sentences. So even reached for their hips.
Ah, prince
Freya picked up the dog from the crowd and then ran amidst the quiet crowd toward us with a smile as she shouted, Brother, Prince! Prince!
Everybody revealed a smile when they saw the dog held up high. But, their smiles were more smiles of relief.
Freya checked her surroundings. She then chuckled coldly and softly said, See now, brother? You can be sure now, right? Those who reacted when they heard prince are enemies
