Jennet rolled her eyes at them. "Arro, that is not nice. Please don't blatantly harm others.""But, he disrespected you. I can't let that slide."Jennet knocked his head gently and said, "Young man, you can't do that. It was my fault he got mad. I nearly stepped on him due to my carelessness. It's understandable why he talked harshly with me.""But-""That is enough. Let us continue shopping." She stopped him before he could speak his mind. If she said nothing, he would take revenge on her behalf.Arro hesitantly responded, "...Alright."Then, the twins walked ahead of her as she followed them from behind. She heard them talking, enthusiastically, about the festival that was going at full throttle.Jennet smiled and enjoyed herself looking around the place. Suddenly, someone brushed past her and something pricked her arm."Oww!" She gasped in pain. She looked down and noticed blood bleeding through the fabric on her left arm. Grimacing, she pressed her palm onto the cut to stop the b
The turtle inhaled deeply. He broke into a smile. "Yes, of course, because some of the stuff I sell needs the good deed.""Oh..." Jennet nodded her head. She was confused but she had nothing to ask because she had no idea what to ask. The more she delves into the sensitive case, the more she gets confused about everything around them.After the conversation, Jennet and the twins took their time to see all of the stuff on display. The vast majority of the items were human's everyday stuff and were broken. For example, the quills without nibs, shoes without soles, cups without handles, bows without strings and the list just went on.Jennet came across a hilt, the only one among thousands of items on display. She felt a strange sense of Deja Vu as if she had seen it before."That one is notorious and dangerously powerful, but had a sad story..." The turtle gave an intro.Jennet glanced and asked, "What happened to it?" She was interested.The turtle inhaled deeply. "He was once a powerf
Hue woke up when something buttery and toasty hit his nose. He unfurled his eyes and saw the Smell Folk dancing in mid-air. Their dance was very graceful and beautiful, unlike usual. It seemed as if they were celebrating something that was long forgotten.He sat on the sofa and tied his long hair into a low ponytail. Yawning, he placed the bolster on the sofa bed and approached the kitchen.Standing at the entrance, he eyed his wife, whose back faced him. She was donned in the pink apron he uses when working in the kitchen. She was placing sunny-side-up eggs on a plate."Honey, I thought I would be making breakfast today," he said.Jennet turned around and smiled brightly. "I was up too early today. So, I thought of making breakfast for us since you always made it.""Why didn't you just wake me up?" he asked."You were sound asleep, and I don't want to rouse you from your peaceful sleep."Hue scratched his head and covered his mouth to yawn. "Is this your roundabout way of asking forgi
Hue and Jennet were downstairs when they heard loud bangs coming from upstairs.“What is that?” Jennet glanced in alarmed, half-jumping from her seat. Hue rose from his chair and assured her to sit comfortably. “I’ll go and check,” he said.“Be careful, honey.” Jennet sat down, hoping nothing bad would happen.Hue went upstairs and realised the loud bangs had come from their bedroom. He grabbed a hanger from the laundry basket near the stairs. In his grasp, the hanger morphed into a sabre.“Gomi?” he called.‘Yes, master?’ replied a voice in his head.‘Do you sense something off?’‘Apart from the spirit is ill, nothing else.’Then, Gomi’s presence vanished from his mind. Hue didn’t think much of it because he was sure Gomi and the rest of their familiars were unhappy after the twins placed them under restrained orders. In Fantasy Realm, restraining orders were considered a major distrust of the master towards the familiars. But, if the familiars were innocent, they could refuse to s
"Miss, your stuff has been delivered into the new house. Thank you for choosing our service. Have great days in your new home." Said the delivery men while smiling at Jennet. It was already past noontime when her stuff was fully delivered into the living room. The delivery men had just walked out from her house and she was escorting them to their truck at the front compound of her villa. Jennet smiled back at them. "I will and thank you for helping me deliver my stuff over here. Have a safe trip back home." She said and waved her hand. They said their thanks again before walking towards the truck. The vehicle left the compound and disappeared at the junction heading towards the heart of the city. Jennet turned her body towards her new home. Her dream house, a glassed wall villa in the forest with a private pool only for her to enjoy. She bought this villa after saving money for five solid years. For all those years, she only stuffed her stomach with f
The next day, Jennet woke up when her phone rang. She opened her sleepy eyes lazily. As if remembering something, she immediately ran her hands under the quilt, searching for her phone. When she failed to locate it, she groaned softly.Her long and straight hair was all over her face when she got on all four limbs on the bed, searching for her ringing phone. She looked around with her hair curtaining the sides of her face.Then, the ringing died.As the sound died, she was in a daze on the bed. She looked around in confusion. The room she was in was dark."Where am I?" She mumbled to herself while still feeling half asleep. The surrounding was not the house that she was used to. Her brows furrowed as she tried to remember something.She tugged her hair until she felt pain on the skin of her head. Then, she nodded her head. "Ahh, I remember. I am in my new house."She slumped back onto the pillows to continue sleeping but the phone rang again
Marvina was pulling a long face when Jennet arrived at the promised place. She was standing outside a food stall while crossing her arms over her chest."You're still alive. I thought the reaper took you to their world." She said half-mocking while staring at the gasping friend who came running towards her from the parking area.Jennet looked at her with a guilty expression. "Marvina, I am so, so sorry! I overslept. Last night, I was busy unpacking my stuff and I forgot to set my alarm." She explained while catching her breath. Beads of sweat were all over her forehead and she immediately wiped it using a handkerchief.Marvina glared at her, walked forwards and immediately hooked her arms around hers. Jennet gulped, waiting for her to say words of curses, but…"Hurry up, order something," Marvina spoke. Her voice softened as she smiled widely.Jennet looked at her, still feeling guilty for being late. But, at the same time, she was confused.
After they stuffed their empty stomach at the food stall, the two of them went shopping together. Since Jennet has been moving into her new home, Marvina accompanied her to buy food supplies. It was already late in the evening when they finish shopping. Jennet drove Marvina to her apartment. Since Marvina stayed at the apartment provided by the company, she stumbled upon her other colleagues who had just return from work. They glanced at her with unhappy expression all over their faces when she dropped Marvina off outside the apartment. Their expression showed disgust and contempt when they saw her driving her car. Marvina knew the atmosphere was getting gloomy as seconds passed. So, she immediately spoke out to Jennet, "Ignore them. Afterwards, you just drive straight home and don't wander around and remember to report duty for tomorrow." Jennet nodded her head with a small smile over her sad looking face. "Okay, and you be careful as well." She said
