Chapter 9 It's Strange Enough
During Leolu's rest, he saw Yuto again, and he took away the Flame Orb that Leolu had lied to Leolu and put it in Ima, and then news came from Mishima that it was Ash and the others who succeeded in calming Lokia, and I don't know what they did, but anyway, it's good.
Looking at the clear sky outside, Leo Lu took a deep breath.
"It's still a comfortable day like this!"
Celia, who was holding him beside him, was not happy when she heard this, and pursed her lips angrily.
"Brother...... He's a slacker!"
After that night, Leolu's physical condition was almost recovered, but his legs were still a little weak, and according to Miss Joy, it was a nervous disorder caused by fear, and it was good to rest for a while.
Leolu originally wanted to catch the crutches provided by the Elf Center, but those crutches were designed to be used by elves and humans over one meter away, and he couldn't even reach them, so he had to let Celia move with him.
I thought it would be very inconvenient, but after a little try, Leolu found that Celia knew him very well inexplicably, and even if he acted, he would move forward at the same time, which was really tacit in the eyes of others.
But Leolu, who was just recovering from his injuries, didn't bother to find anything to do for himself, so he first asked to go to the beach to take a look around, at least relax first, and think about the rest later.
"I'm sorry La Selia, I'm just feeling a little after a series of events, I'll do it myself in the future. ”
Thinking of the time when he was lying in bed before, Ikki advocated that he should do everything for him, even if Leolu could do it himself, Ikki also helped him do it, saying that he would let him rest well, and leave the rest to him or something...... There's enough chaos to make of it.
Selia silently took Leolu's paw and walked slowly, not noticing the love that flashed in Leolu's eyes.
"Selia, would you like to come with us to Kanto?"
Thinking that they had met the child in the Orange Islands, they wanted her to travel with them...... Leolu really didn't know if it was good or bad.
"Of course...... Brother, wherever he goes, Selia will follow, this is a good thing that has been said a long time ago!"
The girl's delicate eyes looked at Leolu's scarlet eyes, but somehow, Leolu laughed.
"It seems that future trips will be very interesting. ”
At this, Celia stopped as if she suddenly remembered something, and even Leolu, who was grabbing her palm, stopped.
"That ......," Celia swiped lightly on the ground with one foot, her eyes a little frightened, and from time to time she looked towards Leolu's feet, "that state...... Will it happen now?"
"Oh, that's what you mean," Leo Lu raised his leg, "It's all right!"
Even if he couldn't bear it, he said it anyway.
"Really...... That's good. ”
"Well, let's keep walking. ”
Leo took Selia's hand and began to leave his footprints on the sand once more.
——————————————————————
"What? You showed that rock to Dr. Ohki?"
As soon as he returned to the Elven Center, Leo Lu saw Kazuki running towards him with the treasures of the Calrest family that he had "salvashed" on the Ice Island.
It was indeed a stone, an ordinary square slab, but one of the corners was missing, and it was unknown if it was due to Leo Road that had caused the damage to the thing.
"Don't worry, listen to me first," Ikki shoved the stone into Leolu's hand, and took out the small notebook he had been using to memorize from his pocket, and said as he flipped through it, "I did show the stone to Dr. Ohki, but he didn't know what it was." Leolu, what the hell did you get back?"
This time it was Leolu's turn to not speak.
"This ...... I don't know very well. “
Who knows what the Carest kid wants, but it's better to be something important. It was an important treasure that they had paid a great deal of money to get their hands on, if it didn't have that value...... One can imagine Calrest's fate.
"Hey...... I really can't help you, so I'll put it here first. ”
Ikki took the stone from Leo Lu and put it in his backpack, rummaging through it for a while before taking out the black scarf he had given Leo Lu earlier.
"Hey, it's done, Miss Joy has helped a lot!"
Looking at the black scarf in his hand, which had been fitted with a metal box, Leolu really didn't know whether to wear it or not.
The gray one before was fine, at least it could still be worn out, but this black one was different, the scarf alone was okay, and Leo Road looked pretty cool on it, but if there was more of this box that didn't match, it looked too unusual, and it was hard not to attract the attention of others.
No, Ikki couldn't help but turn his back and snicker when he saw Leo Lu wearing a scarf, and looked back at him from time to time.
This...... Isn't it really intentional?
"Hug ...... Sorry, it seems that not only the scarf, but also the box will be replaced together...... Poof!"
Leo Lu shrugged his shoulders and looked at the silent Selia beside him as if asking for help: "Is it really funny?"
Leolu didn't have much hope, but Selia's words directly crushed the last bit of luck in his heart.
"It's weird, it's like...... Fire dinosaur、Sent out a ...... The cry of Soloam was the same...... Very inappropriate. ”
Leolu didn't know how she managed to look at herself like this with such a blank face, but since she had said so, it must be right.
"Hey, then I'd better put it away first......"
Even though he knew that Ikki was kind enough to help him, to be honest, Leolu couldn't afford to lose this person......
"By the way, did Nazi tell you when we're going back to Kanto, and I'm kind of tempted to go to that forest. ”
Carefully folding the scarf and putting it in his bag, Leo Lu said as he looked up at Ikki.
"Sister Nazi said we were leaving today...... Actually, I was quite anxious, Dr. Ohki refused to talk to me on the phone, I had to talk face-to-face, I really don't know what he was going to do. ”
But complaining is complaining, Dr. Ohki has said so, it must be a very important thing, it is better to hurry over.
"Okay, then I'll clean it up," Leolu nodded and said to Selia, "You go get your own things too, and if you can't do it yourself, you can ask Nazi to help you." ”
Selia nodded, and didn't say anything, but the small hand holding Leolu's claws never let go, as if it was engaged in a psychological struggle, and after a while she left very reluctantly.
"Celia likes you very much. ”
Kazuki looked at Selia's back as she disappeared into the hallway, and laughed with interest.
"It's not a bad thing, but it's not a good thing to be too clingy. ”
“…… That's right. ”
For this, Ikki has a lot of feelings about Zoroa.
"But I still have a lot of things to ask you, I didn't have time to ask on Ice Island before, you have to tell me everything on the way back!!
Kazuki's expression changed, and he put on a threatening look to intimidate Leolu, and said in a pretended vicious tone.
“…… Uh, well, I'll just tell you. ”
Anyway, he also wants to become stronger, and since he is going to travel with Yihui, he must have a good relationship with him, so there is no need to hide the previous secret.
Other words...... This journey back to Kanto was destined to be difficult for Leolu.
Leolu shuddered at the thought of what might happen next.
