Chapter 8 : Cheery Irisblack

  The sky was covered with bck clouds, the wind blew through like madness itself dancing through the streets., the smell of rain interspersed the smell of blood, the red water washed the streets. The one standing in the rain and at the scene is Jack, the man who had been talking nonchantly a few minutes ago, now there was only silence and the sound of the rain around him, who was standing with his hands clenched tightly.

  Should I go comfort him? ...Yeah, I probably should. Skye walked towards Jack who was standing at the scene. Before Skye could enter the scene, Mica grabbed his shoulder and lightly shrugged. It's like saying, "Let it be."

  "But..." Skye said softly. "Not yet...not now. It's none of our business." Mica patted Skye's shoulder lightly before walking back towards Stevphen's cn. "That's right, Skye." Cilly added before following Mica.

  This morning, the atmosphere was still lively with people, but now the windows and doors were tightly shut, and the stalls were shaking because of the storm and rain. There were no people or carriages in sight.

  “Dang it, has this town become a ghost town?” Cilly said loudly before making a pyful sound, jumping on puddles here and there. Like a little kid pying in the rain for the first time

  When they reached the corner of the street, and walked a little bit more, they would reach Stevphen’s cn. After that, they went to find a change of clothes and had dinner, took a shower, and went to sleep, forgetting about things that didn’t concern them…even though it should have been like that. Skye was thinking about nothing and didn’t look where he was going. As they passed the corner of the street. A person wearing a green raincoat bumped into Skye so hard that he almost hit the wall on the other side.

  “Sorry, it’s my fault. Excuse me--Skye?” The distinctive, firm voice could only be “Stevphen, no, Steve.” Skye pushed himself up from the ground.

  “Oh, Steve? Where are you going?”Cilly tilted her head slightly and poked Stevphen’s waist, and it was like Stevphen thought of something. “Sorry, I hurry. be back soon.” Stevphen said quickly. Stevphen's voice trembled slightly before he hurriedly ran towards where Skye, Cilly, Mica had just left.

  "Hmm, Cheery Irisbck? Did he just say that?" Cilly curled her tail slightly and turned to ask Mica. He didn't answer, he just sighed before walking and entering the cn. "Dang it, stop ignoring me." Cilly's tail swung slightly before she followed them into the cn.

  "Fuck that hurt" Skye grumbled to himself inwardly, then slowly walked into the cn following the two.

  It's weird, why is it so dark? " Did no one turn on the lights?" Skye asked curiously, followed by Mica's answer. "There's only nterns or candles here."

  " No matter how many times, I still like this scent of Luny" Cilly rambled on and on. Hmm, the smell? "What smell is-" Before Skye could finish his sentence, the fragrant smell of coffee mixed with the scented candle, like the smell of peace that had been dipped in sweetness. In front of Skye, there was a dim light at the counter, and another thing she noticed was two more people, one sitting in front of the counter and the other standing behind it.

  “I didn’t think Luny would be here yet.” Cilly said brightly, her tail wagging slightly. Mica smiled slightly before replying, “Me neither” Then the two walked towards the counter, leaving Skye standing there in confusion. “You didn’t even wait or expin anything to me, so who knows what to do next?” Skye muttered before following the two.

  When Skye reached a distance that was visible, the person sitting in front of the counter was the same woman who served and washed the dishes in the morning. The other person was a woman with long white hair, silver eyes, wearing a white shirt and a bck vest. Most importantly, she had white ears and a tail like Mica, but her tail was wrapped around her waist.

  “Welcome, all three customers. I wonder what I, Lunicar, can do for you,” the white-haired woman said in a tone that was both sharp and cheerful. She put her right hand behind her back and her left hand on her chest, leaning forward slightly.

  “I’ll have the same menu” Cilly and Mica said at the same time before sitting down on the chairs in front of the counter. “Mocha and Affogato at your way, sir.” Lunicar nodded slightly before Mica interrupted. “Bruh… You know I can’t eat that kind of food, Lu.” Lunicar smiled slightly. And nod her head. "Hehe, Cappoccino, less sweet as usual, brother." Then both of them ughed a little before Lunicar turned to look at Skye. "How about you, What do you want, young man?" Her voice was gentle and friendly, almost making Skye doze

  "Let's say that he doesn't want it, Luny," Cilly said instead. "Shame, How about What's your name?" Lunicar said excitedly, supporting her chin with both hands, shaking her head back and forth. "...Skye R...Rozenlinn." When Skye snapped out of his reverie, he quickly replied briskly. "Nice to meet you, Skye. My name is Lunicar, Sliver Lunicar, Mica's younger sister." When Lunicar finished speaking, she hurriedly ran to the room behind the counter.

  Before Skye knew it, a voice suddenly appeared. "How is it? Do you like this atmosphere?" The woman sitting next to him asked gently.

  Speaking of which, the atmosphere here is a bit strange. Even though it was raining heavily outside, I could barely hear or smell the rain. On the contrary, the dim light in the darkness and the smell of coffee made me feel inexplicably comfortable. It was as if I could throw away all my worries and not think about them anymore.

  “The atmosphere is nice. I quite like it. And you? Miss…” Skye replied gently. But when the woman saw Skye’s reaction, she opened her eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and covered her mouth with her hand. “Oh my, I haven’t introduced myself yet? Sorry. My name is Jessica Menlo.”

  “By the way… Jessica, do you know where Steve went? I saw him rushing somewhere,” Mica interrupted their conversation. “Umm, I don’t know. While he was drinking coffee, he suddenly spite out his coffee and ran out. I don’t know what happened,” Jessica said calmly, while wiping the coffee stains on the counter.

  “Do you know why the atmosphere around you is like this?” Cilly asked pyfully. “Umm, because…..because… the scent of the candle?” Skye replied ignorantly. “Wrong! This is Luny’s ‘Arkend’ power.” She stood up on the counter and proudly said. “Our Luny can create this kind of illusory territory. Her ‘Arkend’ also can Helps create substances that cause rexation. And…and she can also-” Before Cilly could finish, she was pulled leg by Mica, causing her to fall and hit her butt on the counter before falling to the ground again.

  “How many times have I told you not to show off others abilities so easily, especially Lu’s?” Mica said in an irritated tone before quickly clenching his fist and rubbing it on Cilly’s head, as if he was going to set it on fire.

  “Are you crazy, you little dog! If you break my neck, how are you going to take responsibility, huh?!” Cilly tried to struggle, but Mica immediately snapped back. “Even if you don’t fall and break your neck, you’ll still have your neck broken by Jessica. Because you made a mess of the table!” When Mica finished speaking, Cilly’s face turned pale. Cilly froze. Slowly, she turned to see Jessica now standing behind her, arms crossed, and eyes cold as ice. Seeing this, Mica quickly let go of Cilly and rushed towards Skye.

  “W-wait!” Cilly tried to escape from the fate that was about to happen to her, but unfortunately, it was too te. What happened next was that Jassica lifted Cilly up from the ground and delivered a fwless suplex, smming Cilly to the ground. That left Cilly lying still on the ground.

  “That’s it, Skye. This is what happens if you make a mess of this pce.” Mica said with a trembling voice, trying to hold back his ughter. When he saw that after Cilly had been motionless for a while, she was groaning on the ground. However, Skye just remembered one mistake they made.

  “W-we, Wait… we were soaking wet, weren’t we. That means…” Skye said with a trembling voice. His sweat started to flow, his face turning pale. “Yeah, how could-” Suddenly, Mica just remembered. Then he looked back at the path they had come from. It was dirty and stained with rainwater because they had walked in soaking wet.

  "Shit-" Thinking like that, Mica turned his face to get ready to run away, but Jassica was already in front of them. She grabbed Mica's neck and lifted him up, before chokesmming Mica hard, causing him to fall to the ground and groan like Cilly. And it seemed that the next in line was Skye, but before the cruel fate came

  "Affogato and Cappuccino, less sweet, done." Lunicar spoke brightly and cheerfully, coming out of the room, carrying a tray of food, before meeting the sight of Cilly and Mica lying on the floor.

  "Are you guys stupid? If you're so sleepy, go sleep in your own room. Don't sleep on the floor like this. And who's going to eat these things? Tsk." She puffed out her cheeks a little, her voice sounding a little irritated.
