Chapter 1254: Waking Up Late
The morning finally came, and I lazily woke up, slowly opening my eyes.
That dream I had; it was quite realistic.U//ppTodated fr/o/m nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)\/m
Was that a premonition of the future too?
Or perhaps not, it didn't feel as strong of a dream like back then.
I don't know if Aquarina will remember it though, she's the type of person that doesn't remember her dreams.
"Good morning everyone, how are you today?"
I asked all my familiars, my other friends, those that will probably never leave me, or at least for a long while.
Most of them were inside of my Soul Scape, but quickly appeared out once I called them.
"Fine, it is an okay morning..." Ignatius groaned, looking through the window. "Are you prepared, Sylphy?"
"More or less, yeah..." I nodded, sighing.
"You don't really look that prepared..." Beelzebub sighed, sitting over my head.
"Hey, I'm just... Well, yeah, I'm not. I just pretend. Most of the time, we always just pretend to be brave, to be strong, to be mature..." I said. "It's always about pretending, eventually, you slowly become similar to the persona you've built around yourself."
"I think you're just talking nonsense, but whatever..." Ignatius yawned, a bit of flames coming out of his jaws. "I'm hungry, when are we eating?"
"Here, you can eat some of these at least," I took out of my inventory a few fire spirit stones and threw them at him, which Ignatius happily caught and started eating.
"You're always spoiling him! Why can't I have some of those too?" Beelzebub complained.
"I already gave you plenty the other day, mister butterfly..." I sighed. "Anyways, Alice, Yggdra, Naturia, are you girls ready?"
"I... Well, I am quite sad. I have to admit I've grown attached to the family..." Alice confessed. "But as long as I am with you, it is fine."
"I'm ok~!" Naturia said adorably.
"I have grown rather used to the feeling of being alone and departing from those I love," said Yggdra. "It is fine, I will be with Sylphy after all."
"I also had a similar dream, ahaha," I giggled.
"Wouldn't it be nice if it was like that in the future?" Aquarina smiled, sitting down over the bed. "We will, right?"
"I-I mean, sure...?" I said. "It is a bit too early to plan such things I think, but its not like I
plan to do something else..."
"Yaay~" she hugged me tightly, dragging me back to the bed. "Let's sleep a bit more, it still early I think..."
"It's already like past ten in the morning Aquarina..." I sighed.
"Eh?!" Aquarina panicked. "Shit, we have to go take a shower..."
"Yup, or we're definitely going to be late, and I think the airships we'll be taking are
scheduled for like 2 PM..."
"Ah, okay, let's hurry then," Aquarina sighed.
We decided to take a relaxing bath together, where we made sure to wash each other thoroughly, especially our hair.
"Make sure to bring all these shampoos to maintain your hair," I said.
"Yeah, yeah~" Aquarina nodded, as she packed them inside a storage ring she was gifted
recently.
"And these soaps," I said, giving them some of them too.
"So many..." Aquarina laughed. "Did you make these with Alchemy?"
"Yeah I've been mass producing a lot of hygienic products, so everyone can bring them
along," I nodded. "Now let's go have breakfast, hurry!"
After taking the bath and getting dressed, we rushed downstairs, our families and friends
were already having breakfast.
We were indeed a bit late!
