Chapter 258 Aquarina Keeps Coming To My Bed
Chapter 258 Aquarina Keeps Coming To My Bed
-----
It has been a week since that day when we all ate roasted wild boar with carnage bird stew, and we had managed to cross the grasslands at long last, it was a lot of kilometers, hundreds of them, but in three weeks, we managed to do it quite smoothly, even with all the stops we had to take and so on, but the important part is that we did it!
Last night, we arrived in the area past the grasslands, called the rural areas, they're behind all of the grasslands and the jungle, and are a peaceful area where many small villages of humans inhabit in harmony, there are some tribes of beast-kin people as well. Beast-kin are people with ears and tails of animals, sometimes they even have anthropomorphic features, but they vary a lot, according to my mother.
My father said yesterday that today in the morning we were going to go visit a nearby town for provisions and to meet the place around, my parents wanted to show us what a normal human village looked like before leaving the continent for perhaps many years… They also said that we would make another stop in the coast where there is a middle-sized port city, we'll buy a big vessel there and carry all the amazon through it, crossing into the Atlanta Continent.
They said that the seas are quite calm for the most part, although those that connect to the demon continent are more savage. The sea connecting the Human Continent of Gallatea with the Elf Continent of Atlanta is called the "Calm Sea" while the Sea Connecting Gallatea with the Demon Continent is called "Chaotic Sea"…
Very original naming, I suppose. Although it is called calm, there are still dangerous monsters, so every time they go out into the sea to bring tradeable items and resources from continent to continent, they usually bring mercenaries and adventurers, so they're well paid there. They also protect vessels from pirates that seem to plunder the ships with a lot of resources and seem to inhabit small island archipelagos connecting Gallatea and Atlanta named "Orchid Archipelagos", some are inhabited by pirates, but others make small towns and there is even a nation in there named United Nation of the Orchid Archipelagos.
Pretty interesting! I wish we could make a stop there, they said that we might need to do it to get more food and other things, resources such as food are scarce in the sea for the most part, unless we decide to just eat roasted fish meat all the time, which is not that bad, seeing what sorts of varieties there could be out there.
So today in the morning I wanted to jump out of the bed with all my energies, today we'll visit a new town and I want to take a bath and get pretty so I don't look like a wild tribe girl or something…
"Sylphyyy… Sleep some more with meee…"
However, Aquarina was dragging me back to the bed with her hands, without letting me walk outside.
"Geez, Aquarina, today we are going outside, don't be like this now!" I reprimanded her. "You also gotta take a shower so we can go to the town! Don't you want to meet new people, new things, and new places?" I asked happily.
"…No." Answered Aquarina, rubbing her face over my cushion. "Come on, let's snuggle…"
"I am going to snuggle your belly!" I said angrily, as I began to tickle her belly, Aquarina quickly jumped out of the bed in laughter, as I realized how weak she was in that area.
"Heheh, stop!" She cried. "Don't do that! That's unfair!"
"Well, I could stop if you come take a shower." I said.
"Okaaay… Let's take a shower then…" She said while pouting a bit, but she was also blushing for some reason.
We quickly moved out of the tent, as I finally convinced her to walk outside, the moment we showed up outside, my mother was there.
"Aquarina! This is already like… the tenth time this week? We told you NOT to go to Sylphy's room! And Sylphy! You should tell her to go back to her room, you're way too lenient, my daughter." My mother said while crossing her arms and looking at us from above while furrowing her eyebrows.
"Uuueehh… S-Sorry!" Cried Aquarina, hiding behind me.
"Mom I don't really mind, don't get so angry with her…" I sighed. "I am like her sister, and she's like my sister, I don't know why you get so angry over it!"
"SIGH… You'll understand when you reach puberty." My mother said, walking away while giving up on us. I really didn't understand what she meant by that, but I appreciated having my little sister Aquarina sleeping with me. I used to also sleep with my sister in my previous life as well… In fact, Aquarina is so adorable that she reminds me of her.
"Okay, calm down, don't get like that, she's gone now." I said.
"Sylphy…" She sighed. "Is it really bad for us to be together?" She wondered.
"Huh? What? No?" I said while tilting my head. "Why would that be bad?"
"B-But my mother and your mother get angry that I come to your bed at night…" She sighed. "I-I… I just feel lonely…" Aquarina began to almost cry while hugging me, breaking my heart.
"Awww, no, no, dear…" I said while petting her head and caressing her beautiful silvery-white hair. "It is okay, those two are a bit grumpy, but it is okay… You're my beloved friend, and like my sister at this point… So we'll be together forever."
"Forever and ever?" She asked while her eyes shone, I cleansed her tears while smiling.
"Of course." I said, as Aquarina hugged my chest.
"Sylphy, don't leave me ever, okay?" She said.
"Okay, sure… I wasn't planning on doing it any time soon…" I giggled. "You're so clingy… You're a needy girl, aren't you?"
"I just like to be clingy with you…" She said while looking at my eyes.
"A-Ah… I see…" I said. For a moment, my heart began to beat quite fast as I looked at her adorable face. "A-Anyways! Let's go take a shower, I'll wash your back!"
"Okay!" She said cheerfully. Her smile was all I needed to be happy.
