Chapter 15 - chapter 3: commissioned

Kyle, Vayleen and the twins leave their respective rooms while Lloyd is still sleeping and Mio is similarly exhausted but for different reasons. Aki Jr is floating alongside Aki while pawing at her face.

"What's up? Are you hungry?"

"Nyaa!"

Aki grabs Aki Jr and holds it in front of her.

"No, I think it's bored."

"That so... Vayleen go play with Aki Jr you're both cats so you gotta like the same things right?"

"That was kinda... no nevermind, I'll play with her."

Vayleen has a troubled expression from Aki's words but quickly recovers and transforms into her cat form and swats at Aki Jr antagonizing it causing it to chase after her.

"well, that was easy... anyway i'm hungry what about you two?"

"No we ate plenty last night, though maybe too much."

Kyle stops walking and looks at Aki with a suspicious look.

"She's still alive right?"

"Obviously, we would never kill our own wife. Like who even does that?"

Ryuki responds while walking past and giving Kyle a sidelong glare as he passes him. As the three were walking down the hallway they run into another group of three.

"hmm? is that Jack?"

"Yes, it appears to be. We could try and befriend him, it would-"

"shut it holy man, I don't care. I'm more interested in that arm of his and see if he could tell me where he got it made."

The trios talk caught the ears of the other three and they turned around when they noticed they were talking about Zain. Zain squints at them from behind his mask and the eyes of the mask let out a faint light before dissipating.

(Kyle's purge and cleanse evolved to holy land during training. Vayleen got sensory enhancement after training. as said before the twins got charm, perfect vision and stealth after killing the hydra which is also when they hit level 500. Perfect vision lets the user see perfectly up to 200 miles away and stealth does what it says it erases the users presence completely including scent, sound and body heat. they also got 2 more goddesses protections when they joined Lloyd)

[They're strong and its best not to too involved with the blonde cant let the goddesses know i'm still alive.]

Zain whispers to Kel and Emma who whisper back.

[Yes master.]

[I won't do what you say but if something did happen to you my lady will be sad so i will not speak a word.]

Kel gives a nod while Emma crosses her arms and turns away from them. Kyle and the twins advance towards them.

"How can i help you?"

"Uhm hi i-"

"Shut up holy man."

Ryuki interrupts Kyle and pushes him to the side as he and Aki walk forward and both grab Zain's left mechanical arm and start inspecting it like it was the most valuable thing in existence. Zain removes himself from the twins and takes a step back.

"Oh sorry, I was wondering where you got your left arm made and if you could tell me what its made of. it looks very well made and durable."

"Are all dragons like this? Anyway I made it myself and its made of dragon scales, orichalcum and zethiam."

""So cool.""

Zain muttered under his breath then answered Ryuki's question who, along with his sister kept staring at the arm as Zain flexes his fist.

"why are you so interested?"

"Because, it's super cool"

"I lost my left wing in a fight and i've been wanting to see if i could go to the dwarven continent so i could find a mechanical one or ask some artisans to make me one. But i saw your arm and was wondering who made it because it's such high quality."

Aki keeps staring at the arm and drooling like a dog does with a delicious piece of meat while Ryuki straightens himself out mostly except his tail is giving away his excitement and hits Aki over the head causing her to come back to reality and clears her throat and looks away with an embarrassed look.

"I see. Yeah, i'm sorry but i mad this myself but for the right price I'd be able to make you a wing."

"That's fine, money isn't an issue. i'll pay you twenty stellar gold coins. I would also like you to put these along with the orichalcum and zethiam in the wing."

"T-twenty stellar? i was only going to charge one stellar. Are you sure?"

"yes i'm sure, this price is nothing if i could fly again."

Ryuki responds as he pulls out a pouch filled with various scales, his, Aki's and the hydras, one of the hydras magic stones, two artifact stones which is the rest of them and they have minor gravity control and minor wind control and a pouch filled with coins from the magic bag. The reason that's all that's left is because Mio was experimenting with her creation master skills and made the earrings with a telepathy stone, a mind protection stone which protects the mind from mental attacks and control type skills and a temperature regulator stone which makes it so the user is always a comfortable temperature. Mio also made the barrier artifacts and the time control artifact into a remote type thing and has buttons per barrier and a button to activate them all at once.

Zain is momentarily dumbfounded from the amount of money in front him along with the materials, then he straightens himself out thankful for the mask hiding his expresion.

"... Alright i'll make you a wing. I need you to model for me since I need to see your wing up close and make sure i get it perfect, I'll get you tomorrow which is the rest day between rounds of the martial arts tournament as today will finish up the first round and the day after tomorrow will be the start of round two."

Zain and the two girls with him turned around and kept walking the way they were going before they were stopped. The pushed aside Kyle has been squatting on the floor drawing on the carpet with his finger while mumbling to himself.

"Why am I being ignored this so cruel. goddesses why must I be tortured so?"

{...}

"YEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH"

Ryuki shouts loudly as he pumps his fist in the air, an action he has never once made which is a testament to how excited he is at the thought of flying again. His shout snaps Kyle out of his depressed state and look back toward them and notices the other three walking away and he gets up and chases after them.

Shortly after Kyle left the twins were still in the hallway and Mio came stumbling out of the room wearing a plain t-shirt and shorts while leaning on the wall and a hand on her back and she slowly made her way to the twins and Aki who noticed her first walked over and picked her up in a princess style carry with a smirk on her face.

"What's wrong?"

"You know exactly what's wrong, now where is the bathroom here? I need a bath."

Aki's smirk grows wider as she walks down the hall in the opposite direction towards the baths and Ryuki who recovered from his joy high follows along with a straight face as if what he just did was an illusion.

There are four different bathrooms, two per floor. The twins and Mio go into one of them and start preparing the bath while they undress.

"I can bathe by myself you know..."

"yeah, but we want to be with you."

"Besides it's easier to bathe together, takes less time and reduces our bill."

The twins shoot down Mio's statement with reasonable rease and she can't argue which frustrates her even more than she was when she woke up moments ago.

"Damn it you two can't i get moment of peace? I'm a girl that was sent to a fantasy world, aren't I supposed to be like, I don't know, a princess with a heartthrob of a prince for a fiance that ultimately chooses to dump me and has me exiled then i meet another prince who's cold but caring towards me? fuck my life."

Mio rants under her breath and lets out a long heavy sigh as she sinks into the bath water with the twins sandwiching her between them.
