Chapter 179 - You Saved all of us

Under the sun...

In the streets that were full of people everywhere...

A few figures stood there in front of each looking at each other with different reactions...

"Tauriel... Baccarat...." Gray looked at the two redheads that were standing in front of him and finally called their names softly...

While the red bird on his hand turned into a piece of paper between his fingers...

"...." Both Tauriel and Baccarat showed amazing eyes...

Looking at the small elf standing in front of them, they naturally recognized who he was... But this...

"Gray!" However, Baccarat reacted faster and didn't care that the adorable thing in front of her was the same perfect man she kissed a few days before and directly hugged Gray with explosive emotions...

No one knows how she felt at this moment...

Seeing Gray in front of her calling her name again, finally, she couldn't hold her normal smile anymore and showed her real emotions hugging him happily...

This time, even Tauriel didn't say anything and the last wire of worries inside her heart also disappeared...

"Yes... It's me..." Gray saw Baccarat's reaction and panicked for a second... But then... He calmed down and smiled gently and touched her head as if calming her down...

He understood how Baccarat felt the most... Before coming back to this world before, it was him who told her that everything will be alright... Yet he almost lost them... He betrayed his own words...

He understands that all this was his fault... So Gray feels that he owns her so much...

Thinking of this, Gray eyes became more gentle...

It's just... The current Baccarat was taller than him... So the picture looked a little weird...

"Yes, it's him... It's hard to believe... But this the truth... Our Gray actually became he..." Mary walked to their side and put her hands on their shoulders and said as if she was telling a sad truth...

But before she could continue her words, Gray waved his second hand and threw a spell removing her mouth from its place...

"MMMM" Mary touched her mouth trying to speak, but she found, her face missing a mouth...

Like... Really missing a mouth...

"Well... A lot happened these few days... So..." Gray looked at Taureil and Baccarat and said to them...

Yup... so much happened...

Tauriel looked at Mary's sealed mouth and nodded her head...

Hearing this, a panicked look appeared on Baccarat's face, she realized what she did, but soon a smile of relief appeared... thought she usually acted easily and knew that they were safe... Now seeing them in front of her gave her a completely different kind of relief...

So she stepped back calmly and looked at the others around who were also looking at her with a smile...

"Glad to see you safe Tauriel, Baccarat...(Elvish language)" Legolas saw Tauriel safe and sound in front of him and said with a strong smile on his face...

While Tauriel replayed with a similar smile...

Just like Legolas, Tauriel's relation with this cute prince was quite deep... A simple nod was more than many words, to both of them to understand each other...

"Baccarat, Tauriel!" As for Perona, she still acted the same and flew around the two happily after seeing them after a very long time safely...

There were thousands of words in everyone's mouths...

But seeing everyone was safe, Nothing matter anymore...

*Jiiii* While Niala on the side saw the picture in front of her and stared at them blankly...

Unlike usual, she didn't join in her funny way but looked from the side not knowing what she was thinking about...

"Come, Let's find a place to stay in first..." Gray looked at the crowd around them and said...

All of them knew that they shouldn't talk here... After all, many people were paying attention to them around...

Baccarat and Tauriel looked at Gray who somehow dodged their sharp eyes, with many question marks, but held themselves and didn't say anything for the time being and looked at Perona who's sound appeared on their mind...

.....

.....

In an empty house.

The houses in the empire can be used with enough price...

It happened that there was an empty one close to them, so Gray and the others choose one to stay for the time being...

"Not bad..." Legolas walked into the main room in the house and sat down on the big couch comfortable...

While the others also followed and started talking together about everything...

The most active one was Mary who got her mouth back and Perona who was surprised how smooth these two women's journey was...

They almost lost their lives, while Tauriel and Baccarat actually didn't even meet one zombie along the way...

What kind of unfair treatment was this... Are looking down on this apocalyptic world!!

"So you suddenly became like this for no reason?" Baccarat beside Gray suddenly asked while looking at his face...

"Well..." Gray helplessly nodded his head.

"Can't you think of any reason? I mean... We suddenly separated like this, and what happened to you, there should be an explanation..." Tauriel also couldn't help but ask...

For Gray's situation and the others, Baccarat and Tauriel already knew...

Along the way, Perona knew that Gray will have trouble explaining everything to Baccarat and Tauriel so she silently used magic and sent her memories to both of them to explain everything which directly solved most of their doubts...

Realizing what happened, both of them had weird faces... For the handsome perfect man in their mind to turn into such adorable thing all of suddenly...

However, knowing this both of them only smiled and accepted it... At least, he was safe... Gray was Gray after all...

For elves, a few years doesn't really matter... Well... At least for Tauriel...

In fact, she even felt luck somehow...

"I really don't know... What I knew is that our world travel is not as safe as it looks like... The sad thing you were talking about before probably the reason for all of this... So you actually saved us from the worst Baccarat..." Gray shook his head for what Taureil asked and looked at Baccarat while saying this to her...

He really doesn't know...

He thought about it many times before and tried to find the reason, but nothing could explain this weird accident for him...

However, Gray made a few guesses... And his guess key should be linked with his Dark shadow source problem...

Everyone else was separated only but didn't receive any damage... While only he was abused like this, lost his power and body age...

From what happened with him when he saw that mirror reflection in the wizarding world, Gray also knew that his source still works... But for some reason, he can't control or activate it...

But more like sealed inside him...

And the reflection source was also from the mark that appeared on his face when he wore the Crown...

Which ultimately links everything to the crown on his head...

So what happened with them might also be because of the crown...

"Yeah, Baccarat! Not only did you saved us... but you were also the reason we gathered again!" Perona heard what Gray said, and jumped to Baccarat hugging her as thanks...

As Perona said... Baccarat not only saved them but even lead everyone silently to each other through the luck paper she handed them before leaving the sea world...

Perona's card led Gray to her which saved her life...

Gray's card helped him for four years and led him to many things, including finding Nagini, and with the last little piece, he was able to see the empire side which led him to Baccarat and Tauriel...

Mary's card was also used by Gray to led them to Legolas...

While Legolas's card led him to where Gray will jump to, and the place they will jump from toward the empire side...

If one thought about it... From the moment they came back from the sea world, most of their action in this world was indirectly led by Baccarat!

As Perona this, Everyone nodded their head agreeing to what she said, and also showed a thankful smile...

Legolas and Perona still remember how unusual Baccarat actions that she even hunting fish luck in the last few days before leaving the sea world...

Even Luffy was caught by her strapping out of his Luck every few minutes...

Though they don't know if *Luck* really saved them from something they don't know or not... But they believe so...

Seeing all of them looking at her like this, Baccarat blinked her eyes with a confused look...

"Well... Actually, I mostly did this for myself..." But after a few seconds, Baccarat showed a calm smile and said to them...

She really did this for herself... Baccarat felt the disaster that was about to happen before and tried to tell Gray... However, she herself didn't know what it was...

Feel sad for no reason? Who could guess this will actually happen!!

Because of the division skill, she got before, Baccarat got that feeling... So she worked as hard as she could to dodge this disaster...

However, after getting so much luck, her heart wasn't able to calm... So she did what she could do...

Knowing something will happen, but not knowing what it is, was how she felt before... So she could only do her best...

And her motivation was more to let that sadness that held her heart tightly lose and go away... She doesn't want to feel it again...

And all she can do was to use her ability... So she really did all that she could do to save everyone in case something happened...

So in the end, she did was really for herself... To not be sad after...

"Either way, You did it and saved us Baccarat..." Hearing what Baccarat said, Gray smiled and said...

"@#$%@" At this time, Nagini who was hiding inside Gray's hair came out and looked at Baccarat and Tauriel suddenly...

"So she's Nagini... So nice..." Seeing Nagini, Tauriel's eyes brightened and said...

From Nagini, she felt a familiar feeling... Not sure what it was, but very familiar, as if she had a connection with her.

While Nagini was also observing both Tauriel with curiosity...

For Nagini... This wasn't her first time to see Tauriel... The Arkenstone took her shape when it saved Gray in the crown awakening before... So she knew that it was Tauriel who saved Gray...

And just like Tauriel, she also felt very close to this woman... Tauriel was the [Reality modifier Phoenix] source owner, while Nagini has [Phoenix Bloodline] in her Cursed Bloodline...

So for them to feel like this was quite normal...

"Ara... What a beautiful thing... " And Baccarat eyes shined seeing Nagini's look...

Hearing Baccarat words, Nagini also looked at her

For Baccarat, she doesn't know much other than luck, and luck... And a lot of luck...

Being with this woman, one will become the luckiest lucky person... Sounds suspicious...

"Hmmm... Where is Niala?" Suddenly Perona looked around and found someone was missing...
