Lucas pov :
" Long time no see my friend " I said to her .
Flashback :
" Ugh " I groned as someone woke me from my sleep . " You puny beast ! Wait- Now that I think about it I am quite hungry . Should I eat you hmm ? " I spoke as I caught that mana beast in my hands .
I sensed someone's presence which had the same essence of this beast ' I guess that person is the owner of such a pure mana beast . I hate to admit it but this is the purest mana I ' ve ever seen.'
" Blackie !! If Athy doesn't go now Lily will be worried " the little girl who seemed to be the owner of this mutt had sparkling jeweled eyes and shimmering blond hair tied up in a ponytail .
" Oi you " that girl seemed to have heard me turned towards me and pointed at herself as if to confirm it was her who was being called out .
" Yeah you "
" Umm ..... Big brother what are you doing in the palace ? Not many people can come here . " Suddenly her eyes brighten so I followed her gaze to my hands in which I had caught the mana beast.She said " oh blackie- big brother !! The pet !! You found it for athy ! "
I stared at her with interest and asked ,
" Jeweled eyes ......... Are you atherenatias ' s daughter ? "
The girl looking confused asked ,
" Big brother , are you sure you are not mad ?"
" Huh ? I ' m not ?" I answered not being sure what she meant ." Oh wait big brother Athy doesn't know who you are ? " she said as she just reliased .
' idiot '
" Of course . I am the most powerful and handsome magician in the world lucas." I said with pride ' heh ~ wait ? What ?! ......... Disgust ?!?!'" Ha ! Your an interesting one " I sensed my eyes glowing as I held her chin .
" Anyways are you atherenatias's daughter ?" ' It piqued my interest just thinking how that that atherenatias had such a powerful daughter with such mana .'Instead looking bewildered and answer ,
" Brother lucas , did you have a memory loss ? Atherenatias died 200 years ago , athy's papa is the emperor his name is ' Claude de alger obelia ' and my name is Athanasia de alger obelia ." She explained' Did I sleep through a revelution the emperor' s certainly does not mean ' Immortal 'or something ....
" Brother lucas ...can athy get blackie back ? Athy wants to go home now .... "
" No .I found it so it's mine now ."
" B- but , big brother .... athy loves blackie sooooo much ........ "
' what's with this ? Acting cute ? Hahah ... This is troublesome ....'" Listen ' athy' . This is not your pet . It's a mana beast ."
" A .... mana ...... beast ? What's that ?"' she doesn't even know that . If not for her jeweled eyes , I'd doubt she is a part of royalty .
" You don't know what a mana beast is ?"
I unconsciously bent down to her level and pat her head ." Your are Athanasia . Right ? "
She nodded ." Which palace do you live in ?"
" Ruby palace "' huh? What ? Ruby palace isn't that the palace for the emperor ' harem ? ........ Did that change too ? Ugh just how much did I miss ..... This annoying ..'
" First let's go back and I will explain on our way ."
" Okay " . She smiled .
' hmmm ...... This isn't so boring after all .
On our way I briefly explain about mana beast to her ." Ehhh ?! Blackie will disappear ?" She said sounding sad .
' Is she that attached to that lump of mana ? "" How about a deal ? " I suggested .
" Deal ? What deal ? " She asked still looking sad .
" I will take care of blackie or whatever is that until you grow up ." I explained .
" But what will you do with blackie ?" .
" U see . I don't have enough mana right now so I will use your mana till I have enough ."
" But then what will athy get ?" She asked looking innocent .
' she is smart ' I thought to myself .
" Attachment " I answered .Some minutes have passed and I asked ,
" So ? What is your answer ? "
" ......... Okay "
' great '
Now where is the soul contract ......." Put a drop of blood your blood here "
She looked scared at the mention of blood but still , said nothing as she pricked her finger .
* Kringggggg*" Brother lucas, must return blackie to athy "
" And if I don't ? "She started sniffing but still did not cry .
" bu-but blackie is athy's o-only fri- friend ......... If u don't return it .... athy will b-be alone ....at-athy heard fr-from li-lily that pa-pa will come b-but he he never came athy waited from him till now bu- but he naver came uwahhhhhhhhhhhhhn !!! "
' I have seen man brats crying but he felt annoyed .nothing more nothing less .but seeing this particular girl ,I panicked.'' maybe because of the soul contract ........... though it was only the consent of using her mana , the connection was inevitable formed .
I explained to myself , but still was at loss . '
" H-hey .... I was kidding . I'll return the mana beast to you . Okay ? "
But she still did not stop crying .
"Uwahhhhhhh ...... Brother lucas must return him ! Otherwise athy will be alone again ! "
My panic elevated to another level as he frantically summond something .
A chocolate cake .
" Here , now stop crying ."
And sure enough , Athanasia instantly stopped crying as she took hold of the cake .
" Choco cake !!!!"
End of the flashback .
