Chocolate and The Magical Blue Bird - Chapter 9

[yumemory]

Bradley: Kiddos, show me both of yer hands.

Children: Like this?

 

Bradley: Yeah, that’ll do.

Bradley then snapped his fingers swiftly.

What followed was the chocolate appearing from nowhere, filling up the children’s hands

Riquet and Akira: Amazing!!

Children: What’s that? So cool!

Children: It’s like magic!

Bradley: Ya happy now? Later, then.

Riquet: No, you should stay!

Riquet:  I commend your effort to entertain the children, but slacking is a form of procrastination. We will do this to the end!

Cain: Here, gramps. There’s two orangettes and two truffles for you inside.

Arthur: We used wizards’ sugar for it. It has magical protection and physical recovery effects.

Arthur: Please eat it with your treasured friends and families.

Person from City of Glory: Nice, thank you!

Person from City of Glory: Wait a second, have I seen you somewhere…?

Arthur and Cain: !

 

Arthur: Y-You’re mistaken, I’m Cain’s disciple in swordsmanship, Arty!

Arthur: Isn’t that right, Master?

Cain: ...Y-Yeah! I’m his master, but really, all I wanna say is that he has great potential.

Cain: So great that I can’t even let my guard down when we spar, lest he’ll have my head.

Arthur: I-Is that true?

Cain: What, you don’t believe me? This is not a flattery, I’m just saying the truth. You’re getting better day by day.

Cain: So come on, you should hold your head up higher.

Arthur: Thank you, Master…!

Person from City of Glory: Ahahah, you master and disciple sure get along well!

Arthur and Cain: Of course!

 

Rutile: Would you like chocolates to convey your gratitude and feelings to your loved ones? 

White, inside the frame: Children get the sweet, sweet milk chocolates!

Snow, inside the frame: The grown-ups may have the bittersweet dark chocolates!

Snow, inside the frame: My, festivals are exuberant, indeed. I wished I joined you sooner and aid with the preparation.

Young Man: Excuse me, please give me some of the chocolates! Today I want to confess to my childhood friend, with this flower bouquet.

Rutile: Oh! how romantic and wonderful!

White, inside the frame: Why, the youngbloods sure are adorable. Let us aid your endeavor.

Snow, inside the frame: Rutile, dear, come closer. Here is what we are going to do….

Rutile: Hm hm. I understand, please leave it to me!

Rutile: < Ortonik Setomaouge! >

Young Man: Whoa! The chocolate is decorated with flowers, and my chest pocket too…!

White, inside the frame: ‘Tis too soon to be amazed.

Snow and White, inside the frame: < Noscomnia! >

Young Man: Amazing! My bouquet is all the more splendid now!

Snow, inside the frame: Young man, do your utmost. May it turn out the best.

Young Man: Yes, thank you very much!

Rutile: I hope his confession goes well.

Snow, inside the frame: Yes, we do love those who give their best effort!

White, inside the frame: Hohoho. Shall we be on his tail and see?

Snow and White, inside the frame: Kya kya!

 

Akira: Heath, Chloe, I brought more chocolates.

Heathcliff: Thank you for the help, Master Sage. We were just about to run out of them.

Heathcliff: Look, Chloe has been giving out chocolates like that for hours.

Chloe: Sir, Madam! How about a chocolate to convey gratitude to your loved ones? It’s tasty! 

Person from City of Glory: Oh, how long has it been since the last time I ate chocolates? Thank you, Mister Wizard.

Person from City of Glory: Say, that’s a really nice outfit. Do the Sage’s wizards have a fine tailor among them?

Chloe: Huh? Uhm, that’s….

 

Heathcliff: Yes, you are right. They are kind-hearted, and have an impeccable taste; simply the best tailor in the world, I must say.

Person from City of Glory: Oh, how lucky! Darling, how about you give me a nice outfit too?

Person from City of Glory: No problem, dear. Let’s go get you a beautiful dress right now; t’s my gift of gratitude.

Heathcliff: I’m happy for you, Chloe.

Chloe: Stop, I’ll blush….

Children: Mister! Chocolates please!

Children: Me too!

Chloe: Yeah, okay! ...Ah, that’s it! Hey, Heath, this chocolate….

Heathcliff: ...I got it. I’ll help you out.

Chloe: Master Sage, can I have all of the chocolates in this basket?

Akira: ? Sure, but will you be okay? There are still a lot in this one.

Chloe: Yeah! We can make it more fantastic that way!

Akira: Fantastic?

 

Chloe: Here I go! < Suispicibo Voitengok! >

Heathcliff: < Repsev Aivulp Sunos! >

As they cast their spells, the chocolate soared high in the sky, and fell in sparks like fireworks.

Each spark was palm-sized. Even so, the sight of so many chocolates shining was as fantastic as a starry sky. 

Chloe: Those fireworks won’t burn you, so go on and touch them!

Children: He’s right!

Children: A firework went off on my palm, amazing!

The kids became all jolly, and the adults around were infected by the laughter. Looking at them, we exchanged smiles.
