Chapter 138: Tight Short Pants
Chapter 138: Tight Short Pants
"Nee, how do we get to Leurbost Village? It's not close, is it?" After they had passed through the southern city gate without a hitch, Sylvia asked curiously.
"Well, not too close nor too far. We just need to head south and over the Savannah Prairie, and when we get to Larnwick City, we're close." Martin answered casually.
"No, that's not what I mean. What I want to know is how do we get there? We don't walk like this all the time, do we?" Not the desired answer, Sylvia clarified her question.
"Oh, regarding that. Of course not, young lady Aivlys. Who would walk that far, hehe... We'll use this." Anika took out a magical device like a dark blue bracelet from her Space Bag hidden behind her belt accessories.
"What's that thing?" Sylvia got even more clueless.
"What? Don't you know this magical device at all? Em, well... This is Gravy. We can fly with the help of this bracelet even though we haven't reached the Spirit level like your father." Anika explained with a faint smile as soon as Sylvia shook her head.
Anika thought Aivlys didn't know because her father took care of all their trips with his strength by supporting her to fly. So this innocent girl didn't have anything to do with Gravy anymore.
"Woah! So this is Gravy, is something like this commercially available? Um, how does it work?" The curious girl became interested, Elysia joined in the conversation about the bracelet.
"Well, you can get it at a magical tool store or similar store. For how it works, um, the user just has to activate this bracelet with their magic energy like this. Look, I am floating and ready to fly with speed!" Anika avoided the theory that was difficult to explain. She just put it into practice.
She wore the blue bracelet on her wrist. As soon as she activates the bracelet with her magic energy, the bracelet would take care of the rest to make the user fly.
"See the little Energy Core in the middle of this bracelet? It's what helps us to fly, although we also need to control where we are going with magic because Gravy only makes us fly in a straight direction." Anika pointed to a dark blue Energy Core fragment on her bracelet.
"Whoa, it's no wonder that people can fly easily, and that ability is talked about quite a bit in public. Is it an Earth Grade Energy Core fragment from the Spirit level monster?" Elysia smiled subtly. She satisfied her curiosity.
Flying ability was a remarkable ability for some beings who had reached the Spirit level or above. However, now it wasn't like that anymore.
No wonder when she first came to the capital city, she heard Advanced level adventurers talk about the ability to fly as if they could fly to the sky effortlessly. It was not that difficult, just in practice, it might not be cheap.
"Yup, this is an Energy Core fragment from a low tier Spirit monster. Martin, Franky, we've taken enough distance from the city. I think we're safe to fly." Anika nodded happily. For some reason, she felt like a great person in front of these two young girls.
"Yeah, I guess this distance is enough. Forcibly dropped from the sky hurts like hell." Franky checked their distance from town, then he wore a Gravy bracelet around his wrist.
"Oh yes, how are you going to fly to our destination? Mr. Nalyd took care of everything for your trip?" Martin asked while wearing the blue bracelet. He seemed to care about the man who had to support the two girls to fly.
"Um, Ais, can we get on Vanessa's back again to fly?" Sylvia did not answer that. She immediately asked for her friend's permission.
"Sure, like last night. This is a short trip with the ability of your father, Lys hehe..."
"Uh? Two teenage girls getting on the back of the little kitten to fly? I can't imagine it?" Martin scratched his head confusedly. He didn't understand what the two girls were talking about.
"Huhu~ Just you wait, Vanessa is Ais's magical beast! She can change size!" Sylvia proudly announced as she spread her arms wide.
'Vann, please.'
'Yes, master.'
Elysia took a little distance from the group and then put the cat on the ground. Vanessa's body quickly enlarged, with a bluish aura enveloping her body. The cute little cat as big as the girl's hug suddenly became a five-meter-long fierce tiger.
It was different when Vanessa shrank her body that made her a little embarrassed, and no one was allowed to see but her master. This time she felt confident and proud when she returned to her original form, her most superb form.
"Ow, wha, wow! Little kitty suddenly became an oversized fierce tiger! Wha, but hey, don't try to bite me, you understand?" Franky returned to his true nature, spoke what he thought. However, he became a little nervous when the tiger looked at him.
"Whoa, she also has a pair of beautiful wings... I was suspicious of the little cat with great power earlier, it turned out to be just a disguise, hmm... That's a rare talent." Anika's eyes sparkled a little. Earlier, the young girls were amazed, but it was her turn to be fascinated.
"Come on, Lys, I'll help you up." Elysia immediately climbed onto Vanessa's back and then stretched out her hand to the girl waiting for her.
"Un! I'm sitting in the back seat." Sylvia immediately took the offer by grabbing her friend's hand and climbing onto the tiger's back.
After the two girls sat adequately on her back, Vanessa stood up and moved her wings a little.
"Why are you still gawking like that? Isn't it time for us to fly? Let's fly to the sky! Father, come on, you too." Sylvia cheered with joy.
"Uh, well, let's go." Martin tapped his comrades on the shoulder, and they nodded at each other and then flew into the sky at low altitude, heading south.
Vanessa immediately stretched her wings and shot into the sky to chase after the three people who had flown first. Dylan casually followed suit.
"Ow, be careful, Vanessa. Your master could fall." Sylvia immediately put her arm around Elysia's waist with alacrity. She was afraid her friend would fall because Vanessa was too excited to go up to the sky.
"Um, I'm fine, Lys. I won't fall..." Elysia blushed slightly and smiled awkwardly. She wouldn't fall even if Vanessa flew upside down.
"Hum, what are you saying, Ais? How can you keep your body from falling by sitting sideways like that? We should ride in a position like mine because we can hold our bodies with our thighs or legs." Sylvia taught her friend common sense.
"But we are wearing skirts. Look, your skirt goes up like that and shows off your thighs..." Elysia pointed at the obvious. She didn't dare to be so free, not when she was wearing a skirt.
"Um? That's okay, I'm not ashamed because I'm wearing tight short. See? Hehe..." Sylvia lifted her skirt for a moment, then smoothed it up. She wore tight black short pants underneath.
"Wha, what?" Elysia asked as if she couldn't believe such an object existed. She didn't know it at all and didn't buy it at the department store.
Elena just remained silent and giggled softly. She didn't really know either. Women's business was a bit far from him at that time, so she didn't know everything.
"Huh? Why are you surprised like that, Ais? Aren't you also wearing tight short pants under your skirt? It's a must for girls who want to go on an adventure in a skirt."
"..." Elysia couldn't answer that. She was too embarrassed to admit it. She was just wearing her panties down there.
"What, are you only wearing panties?" Sylvia whispered into Elysia's ear as if she knew the answer to her own question. Elysia didn't answer it and only nodded.
"Oh my! How brave, naughty Ais." Sylvia teased with a mischievous smile.
"Ah, uh, auu... No, I'm not naughty, really. I just didn't know, please believe me. I didn't know about the tight short pants under the skirt was available." Elysia blushed more further when the reality was brought to light. Elena didn't even try to help her. She just giggled as she watched the girl's blushing expression.
"Oh-o~ I trust you, we are both girls, don't be too shy like that." Sylvia covered her mouth with her palm to block her smile from Ais. She was still smiling mischievously.
"Uuu..." Elysia felt that Sylvia was in disbelief. She now had a strong urge to come back and buy some tight short pants for this kind of outdoor activity.
She also wanted regular pants, but Elena forbade it. The reason clearly explained, regarding the woman wearing clothes with a skirt or dress, instead of general pants like a man. The ignorant Elysia simply followed the advice. All her stocks were only clothes with skirts or dresses.
"Hehe... That's fine, no problem. Sorry to tease you, Ais. Tight short pants like the one I wear is not mandatory. Anika is also only wearing panties beneath her mage robe. Em, if you become embarrassed, we can buy it after we get to the city or when we return." Sylvia comforted her friend who was becoming too shy to speak, Ais's blushing face explained it better for her.
"No, I better go buy that myself." Elysia spoke in a mosquito-like voice.
"Hehe... O-Okay." Sylvia smiled then looked towards the front.
The three people in front flew at a slow speed, and they were following the three of them who were leading the way at the same rate. Wasn't this too slow to be called the speed?
