Chapter 13: Ice Cream
Koh Peng is a small tropical island, and the entire group of islands of the Orange Islands is located in the tropics, as mentioned before, but when walking in the forest, the feeling of heat does not seem to be so significant. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Leo leads the way for the crowd, destroying some thorny plants that could hurt people. However, these plants don't actually hurt Ikki and Nazi, and Leolu's attention is still on the new Celia.
From the time she packed up the things she needed for the trip, everyone noticed that Selia didn't really know anything about these things, and she didn't quite understand what the so-called trip was about, and her knowledge was only within the scope of books.
So the travel stuff is done by two other people. Zhenghui doesn't understand these children's things, he's just an expert in studying elves.
Although the scope of this island is not large on the map, if you really walk on your feet little by little, you can understand that this is not so much an island as a huge platform, at least Ikki thinks so.
The little fire horse can't advance in a forest with such dense trees, so Kazuki takes it back to the Poké Ball. But if he just walks, Ikki is fine, and what makes him feel tired is the fire dinosaur who says nothing and doesn't want to go back.
"Fire Dinosaur, You ......"
"Roar !!"
Before Ichiki could finish speaking, a pillar of crimson flames erupted towards his face. If it weren't for Ikki's timely response, he would definitely be burned on the outside and tender on the inside.
As a gym trainer, Nazi naturally has indirectly or directly guided many rookie trainers, so even though she was angry that the fire dinosaur wanted to hurt Ikki, she resisted the urge to let Casey come out and teach it a lesson.
The elves still have to run in with the trainers, and this is not something that can be acted or guided by external forces.
Selia had been asleep for ten years, and she didn't understand a lot of things, so she had to be explained by Nazi and Zhenghui. Selia is a very good learner, and can basically remember what she says once, but she doesn't say a word to them except for questions - she only cares about Leolu, so she never takes her eyes off Leolu who is waving her claws to open the way.
And so, they came to the heart of the island.
It's a wonderful feeling to be in the modern city from the primeval jungle, and Natsu just wants to sleep well in a normal house - she barely slept last night because she was thinking about the life and death of Selia in the ice coffin. Even if she can resist the past with the excellent physical fitness of superpowers, if she can rest, she still wants to relax.
"We weren't really here to travel, but the ship had to arrive a little later, so we didn't have much time to rest. “
Zhenghui's subsequent words negate Nazi's fantasy, making her a little depressed.
The group found a public bench placed on the side of the road and sat down, threw all the luggage they were carrying on the ground or on the stool, felt the cool touch of the sea breeze, and passed the time boredly.
Nazi sat in the middle next to Leo, and Selia sat on the other side, also next to Leo. Kazuki is trying to adjust his increasingly rigid relationship with the fire dinosaurs. Zhenghui is assembling a small machine and preparing to study the data.
Although it is said to be an urban area, it is also along the coast, and the pier is not far from where a few people are.
The waves crashed against the beach, and from time to time a few big-tongued mussels washed up, but they quickly fled back into the sea before they could be spotted.
The shops on the side of the road sell the same thing, all swimsuits, swim trunks, beach hats, and so on, as if people from all over the world have enough stock for sale.
Leo Road scanned one shop after another listlessly, but suddenly stopped at one of them, staring directly at the beach shop that also sold ice cream.
He didn't seem to have seen this thing for a long time, and he had a feeling of nostalgia.
"Brother, I want to ...... Isn't that?...... Celia, I want to ...... too" Celia stretched out her little hand and tugged at Nazi's sleeve over Leolu, and whispered, "Sister, can you ...... Give me one, ice cream...... Brother, too!"
As if feeling a little ashamed because what he was doing was discovered, the skin under Leolu's blue hair suddenly turned red, and he coughed lightly to relieve the embarrassing atmosphere, and said to Nazi: "I'm just a little interested, don't worry about me, Celia wants you to buy it for her, I don't need it......" After speaking, he lowered his head, and he didn't know if it was embarrassment or some other reason, in short, Nazi couldn't see his expression.
Nazi nodded first, thought about it and laughed: "Okay, then I'll leave for a while, wait a minute." “
She jumped away, and Leolu sighed, silently raised his head, and after a gesture to Celia, he shifted his gaze to Ikki and the fire dinosaur.
If two people understand each other, then even without verbal communication, both parties can understand what they want to express, but if two people go their separate ways, like strangers who have no intersection at all, even after the most accurate expression, there is still no way for two people to become one.
The current Ikki and Fire Dinosaur obviously belong to the latter, but their relationship is not so pure, so it is more troublesome to deal with. Ikki's words The fire dinosaur didn't listen at all, and when he was annoyed, he directly squirted [jet flame] towards Ikki's face. His hair was already scorched in several places.
"Here, it's for the two of you, be careful, take it!"
Natsu had returned, holding two ice cream cones with different eyes in her hands and handing them to Leo Lu and Celia, smiling at the two of them.
Celia took the green one, which looked like it was supposed to be vanilla-flavored, while Leolu looked at the red one and refused to take it, let alone take a bite.
Who would add something as spicy as eggplant to the cone!
But this is also his subjective definition, after all, the world is different, maybe it is really delicious.
With a gambling mentality, he took the ice cream, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, and after nothing strange, he stretched out his little pink tongue and licked it tentatively.
…… Well, it's not bad.
Anyway, the elf's sense of taste is different from that of humans, and he doesn't know if it's because of the blessing of this body or because of luck.
The ice cream wasn't as good as it had been, but Leolu ate it anyway.
Looking at my watch, there should be two or three hours to rest, so the rest of the time can only be spent shopping.
“…… Selia, too!"
Leo Lu nodded, and while everyone was not paying attention, he quickly turned around and wiped the salty liquid from the corner of his eye, jumped off the stool and said hello to Ikki and the fire dinosaur, and walked towards the city.
The fire dinosaur also wanted to follow them, but Leolu sternly refused.
The most important thing it should do now is to stay with Ikki honestly and not run around anywhere!
