Leyland Adventures Chapter Thirteen: Part Four

"Sooo, Nya is a godly princess who used all her power to fight and seal away Diablo and rested for one thousand years to regain her strength?" Susana placed her eyes on his, patiently awaiting a response.

He bobbed his head, following with more compliments about Nya's greatness.

"Hmm, I see why a girl like her would be able to attract you. Elegant, wise, logical, and impossibly alluring to the eyes of anyone. Sounds way too similar to our charming princess , don't you think?"

"Yeah, I've noticed they both have similar behaviors. Honestly, it really helps to see Aradressa as Nya. It keeps my emotions in control while also helping me cope with our separation."

"That's nice, is there anyone you see me as?" She asked with everlasting curiosity.

"I see you as Kustina, my genie friend. You're both incredibly energetic, sweet, polite, and great with social interactions."

"I see, does she like you as much as I do?"

"Heh, yes. Kustina and I have a very odd relationship in which I have to constantly turn down her affections. Besides, Nya doesn't like the idea of having to share me."

"You have such a collection of girls tied around your waist. I bet other guys would love to have a harem like that!" She cheered with her eyes stalking his.

His vocal cords hiccupped at the word "harem." He attempted to fight for his claim of having no harem, though Susana wouldn't let him off that easily.

"Don't you dare deny the facts, Tysashi!  I know many men would definitely want that many girls wrapped around them! Face it, Aerosmith, you're a dreamboat and everyone wants to hop aboard!"

"You're making it sound like I want a harem. All I do is be myself and girls just come running towards me. I couldn't even stop it if I could." He replied, directing his eyes downwards at her.

"Well, you seem to be nearly every female's perfect match of a man. Strong, confident, selfless, and non-perverted. Not to mention unimaginably handsome. You're just a lucky guy, Tysashi. I'm super glad I met you." Her dreamy sigh was now left to the pushing winds.

"Me too, Susana." His lips formed a satisfied smile all while walked closer by him.

Having arrived at P.T.B, the pair hunted for an open fruit hut. To their surprise, Lily wasn't present in her shop as she's gathering materials for her shop. Their eyes took note of the relaxed citizens laying on their comfortable beach towels, soaking in the fresh rays of nourishing sunlight. Seeing the endless satisfaction surrounding her, Susana requested the two should plan a meeting on the beach. He wasn't against the idea, though he did have many plans with others, so that day would have to wait in line. Just as her happiness seemed immeasurable, one character came to turn that smile upside-down.

"Hey, Tysashi! And...Susana." Lily shouted, carrying an assortment of fresh fruits in a basket.

The two had different reactions to her greeting. Tysashi responded with positivity while Susana just gave a disgusted stare, crossing her arms.

"Do you need to buy anything, Tysashi? I've got Tropical Miku Berries, Sangoro Fruits, Funni Fruits, Dango Berries, and Satanri Grapes."

"I just need about five Tropical Miku Berries, please."

Lily grinned as she searched for the items, asking him what he would use them for. He relayed his plans to lure Malodan with them, hoping five would be enough for the gigantic creature.

"Very interesting! How are you, Susana?"

"I was fine until you came," she retorted. "Don't you have more dreams to destroy, Kuma?"

"Heh, I would appreciate it if you stopped calling me that. I understand you're still upset over what happened, but why can't you let it go?"

"Because you never apologized! You knew what I wanted, and you took it from me! I worked my ass off to get that role and the director chose you over me!" She screamed, clenching her fists.

"It's not my fault I was considered better-looking and more accurate than you!" She roared with the potent voice of a lion, drawing her body closer to hers.

Their eyes stared at each other with a look of incoming aggression. The air suddenly gained weight as flames were starting to ignite. Tysashi cut between the two, asking them to calm down. Resuming her business, she sold the berries before walking back to her shop without another word.

With Lily's absence, the air had gotten lighter.

"Sorry about that, Tysashi. If it wasn't already obvious, she and I have history together. I'll tell you everything later. But for now, what are you going to do now?"

"I'm going back to the castle to read these books. Thanks for helping, Susana."

"Aww, I wanted to spend more time with you, but I guess I should get back to work anyway. Bye, Tysashi!" She smiled, waving her hands at impossible speeds.

He waved back, making his journey back to the castle.
