Elven Legacy (Part 2)

Chapter 278: Leaving The Training Grounds

"EH!? L-Little sister!?" Exclaimed Comet in shock as he constantly glanced between Elif and Elaine, only now noticing their apparent similarities.

"B-But what about the star symbol?" Asked Comet with an unsightly expression as he looked at Elaine's golden star symbol and then Elif's.

"Mutation." Replied Elif pridefully as he glanced at Comet before wrapping his arm around Elaine's shoulder, causing her to smile while snuggling into his embrace.

"So, what's been on your mind, Elaine? You've been awfully quiet since I arrived; what's wrong? Did Comet do something? If so, I'll kill him right now." Questioned Elif softly with a lovely smile as he ignored everyone else and looked down at Elaine, who faintly smiled before shaking her head.

"I-I'll tell you about it later, Brother." Muttered Elaine quietly with a slightly depressed tone as she shook her head, causing Elif to frown and furrow his brows.

Nodding at Elaine, I leaned down and kissed her on the forehead while affectionally rubbing her shoulder; something to do with Comet had clearly made her upset, and while it angered me, she must've thought it wasn't a big enough deal to risk killing Comet right now.

'Hmph, now I've got another reason to kill him; how dare that bastard upset my precious little sister.' Thought Elif in slight anger as he glared at Comet, who was still hiding behind Renata, only to scoff while dismissively waving his hand.

"Seeing how I got my point across, I shall be leaving; it's getting rather late anyway, so Elaine and I will be retiring to our residence." Said Elif as he glanced at Spica, Renata, and Comet before turning around and walking the way he and Illumia initially arrived.

Renata hadn't said anything, still too angry to risk opening his mouth; Spica was too busy hugging Comet while he, himself, might've said something, but I had promptly ignored the fool; he wasn't more important than my Elaine. With Maxim and Illumia following from behind, Elaine and I walked past the crowds of people, who were all giving me annoyed looks, smiling, having not taken my threat very fondly, which was understandable, and while it may have been a threat, it was also me warning them as well since I was merely informing them what would happen.

'Well, only the men are upset with me; my charm is too much for these women to change their minds.' Thought Elif faintly with a smirk as he glanced at the numerous women, who all seemed unbothered about what had just transpired between him and Renata.

I wasn't flirting with them since Elaine seemed rather downcasted; I didn't need to ruin her mood further, so we just calmly walked through the training grounds before eventually reaching its end, only to fly into the air as we headed back towards our residence.

'Hmm, how should I cheer up, Elaine? Well, she does enjoy drinking my love, so I might offer her that.' Mused Elif softly with a thoughtful expression as he flew through the air while hugging Elaine, leaving the training grounds behind.

"Tch, bastard! He's always behaving so arrogantly; just wait, I'll put him in his place!" Stated Comet angrily with an ugly expression as he watched Elaine and Elif fly through the sky, leaving behind a streak of silver tainted with gold and Purple.

'I'll also steal Elaine from him and make her my woman!' Thought Comet with a lustful glint in his eyes as he stared at Elaine before shaking his head and glancing at Spica and Renata.

"I know you will, dear, but you can't, not right now. Prince Elif, he's too strong for the current you, though I'm sure after bathing within Flame of Rebirth, you'll receive a massive boost to your strength." Said Spica with a confident and lovely smile as she looked at Comet, who nodded before suddenly kissing her, causing her to blush deeply.
