ENCHANTER: The Quest of the Remaining One (bxb)

CHAPTER 36: Book of Enchantments

When we finally got the shining book, we made our way back to the entrance-slash-exit of the abandoned maze library and luckily, we made it out of the it quick and unharmed.

"Can we take a rest for a second? I'm spent up.." As usual, Ren stated then slumped down on the ground.

To be honest, I'm really tired as well.

"I'm also exhausted.." I said then also slumped down beside Ren.

Sergio and Fabian looked at each other then sighed but also did the same. Soon, the four of us are all sitting quietly on the ground, Fabian sitting beside me while Sergio sitting beside Ren.

"Let's tell them now..." Fabian suddenly whispered beside me after some silence. I looked at him in confusion but my eyes instantly widened when realization hit me.

Of course.

Now's the Time.

"Eh.. guys? We have something to tell you, well, more like.. confess to the two of you.." I talked, cutting off the silence. Ren and Sergio both looked at me then raised their brows, curiously.

I looked at Fabian then sighed before averting my gaze back to the other two.

"Fabian and I... we are officially a couple.." I revealed in a soft voice.

The two of them did not utter a response for a second and just stared at me. We were then surrounded by silence and no one dared to talk first.

"That's it?" Ren suddenly asked in a bored tone, cutting off the silence.

I raised one brow at him which he just stared boredly at me in return.

"It's not a big deal for you?" I asked, slightly irritated. I looked at Sergio who quickly raised both of his hands in surrender.

"No comment.." Sergio stated.

"That was not what I expected as a reaction.." I heard Fabian said beside me.

"Look, don't get me wrong, captain, Prim.. I just thought that the two of you were already a couple from the time we stepped foot on this land and you shared a flower, so, it didn't surprise me at all.." Ren explained in a matter of fact tone.

Okay?

"Besides, the two of you are always together and are inseparable.." Ren continued.

"Enough of this. We should keep going. We can talk later... or while we are walking.." Fabian stated then stood up. He then dusted his pants then reached his left hand to me to help me stand up. I gripped his hand then stood up and said a little thank you.

"See? that's why I thought you were already in a relationship from the start.." Ren commented then also stood up. Sergio then did the same without saying a word.

Fabian and I uttered nothing to that and just gave Ren a smile. Soon, the four of us are journeying again, returning back to the fairies.

While heading our way back to the fairies, we first stopped at the old tribe of Pana which is abandoned by now. Guess they really evacuated fast and found another place to settle that the westernians will have a hard time finding nor bothering.

"This place is like a ghost town now.." I commented while looking around the area.

"Yeah..." Ren replied while Fabian and Sergio just nodded in agreement.

"Wait.. there are still two necklaces left, right? Why are we returning back now?" Fabian asked with questioning gaze.

That's right.

I sighed before explaining.

"It's because the two necklaces are not in this land.." I trailed then looked at them. I paused a bit to give suspension. "The two necklaces are in Binzacar.." I continued and saw their eyes widen.
