Couldn't Believe...

Chapter 140

Meanwhile...

"My second item is 'a wizard's magic wand'..."

What is this... am I supposed to fight a wizard?! Where do I find one anyway?!

"You know what, I'm done. This is bullshit, and I'm sure someone has already lost."
'Who said that?'
"!"

He scared me!

"Wait, what do you mean?"
'Who said that someone has already lost?'
"... Nick already left."
'What if he's still in the competition, but working alone?'
"!"
'Look, you have two options. Either you stay in the game, or you leave and risk to stay here all night long alone.'
"Alone?!"
*nod* 'You're on your own now, aren't you?'
"..." *gulp*

To be honest, I don't trust him, but...

"I'll do it."
*smirk* 'Let's go, then.'
*woosh*

...

In the training ground...

"Why are we here?"
'Don't you want a wizard's wand?'
*nod*
'Okay!'
*woosh*
"!"
*transforms into a wizard*
"Holy moly..."
'You want my wand? Come and get it.'
*frown*
'What is it?'
"... Can I use my magic?"
'Sure.'
*woosh*
"I order you, spirit unkind,
By my power, be pushed behind!"
*woosh*
*BAM* "Ouch!"
"Yes!"

I got him!

"Let's end this quickly."
*woosh*
"With the power of magic, I thee demand,
Come to me, wand that I need, obey my command!"
*wand starts moving towards her*
'Not quite.' *catch*
"!"
*woosh*
*appears behind her*
"What-"
*kick*
*BAM* "OUCH!"
'You think you can win? Alright! Then, show me what you've got.' *glow*
"AGH!"
*smirk* 'Let's start.'

A few minutes later...

"STOP! ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT! I GIVE UP!"
'You sure?'
"YES! JUST PLEASE, LEAVE ME ALONE!"
*smirk* 'Deal.'
*woosh*
*transforms back*
'You lost.'
"I DON'T CARE! I CAN BARELY MOVE NOW!"
*sigh* 'You'll go back to the courtyard, okay?'
"Whatever."
*woosh*
'Pathetic.'

...

Meanwhile...

"What's the last item?"
"... 'Fairy dust'."
*sigh* "Where does Eluma get these ideas from?"
"Like hell I know, but he's starting to piss me off."
"Luka, calm down. It's our last task, so let's finish it successfully."
'The Miss is right!'
"AH!"
*sigh*
"You're in charge?"
*nod*
*woosh*
*forest appears*
"Wow!"
"That's beautiful!"
'You see this castle over there?' *points at the castle*
"Yes."
'That's where you'll get your fairy dust. Go in there and they will tell you what to do.'
"Alright."
"Thanks."
'Good luck!'
"Let's go."
*enter the castle*
"Hello?"
"Is anybody here?"
*woosh*
'Well, well, what do we have here?'
'Human! What are you doing here?'
"A human and a spirit. We're here because we have a favor to ask."
'What favor?'
"We need a little bit of fairy dust. Is it possible to get some?"
'... Follow me.'
*nod*
*walk behind the fairy*
"So where are we going?"
'Don't you want some fairy dust?'
"Yes."
'Then you will be talking to our Queen about it.'
*clack*
'My Queen. Some adventurers are here to see you.'
*turn* 'Well, hello there.'
"... Beautiful."
*chuckle* 'Thank you, dear. What are your names?'
"My name's Luka."
"Mine is Diane."
'Such sweet names. So, tell me, why are you here?'
"... We have a favor to ask."
'Which is?'
"We humbly request a supply of fairy dust, Your Majesty."
'And why would I give you that?'
"..."

She's right. What would she gain from helping us?

*sigh* 'You two seem genuine, so I'll do you this favor.'
"Thank you-"
'On one condition.'
"What is it?"
'If you make me laugh, your wish will be granted.'
"Eum, okay."
