Chapter 527 Beginning Of Ideas
"Well, that is what I always aim for in a fight. To show respect and use my power without going overboard," I said, and then looked up at the sky. "I think it's time for me to get going, but thank you both for the sparring match!"
I hugged both women, and then flooded them with healing magic, making them both let out a long sigh, hugging me back. Once they let go, I went over and said my goodbye to everyone and then opened a port back to my house on my Astral Island in front of my teapot.
I walked through and saw Cancer and Lexi as I let the portal close behind me, but I frowned at Lexi. "What happened to Karine?" I asked, and Lexi smiled.
"I was getting tired trying to keep up with Eliza, so Karine stayed with her and the others while Cancer Brought me back to rest. She had been telling me stories about you," Lexi smiled from where she was sitting on her coiled-up tail on the open of the large cushions I had borrowed from Nya.
"That makes sense. I am actually surprised that Eliza is still here, and she hasn't called me once. I would have thought that she would have wanted me to at least join her and the others," I said as I made a cup of coffee.
"I think that it is because this is the first time that she has ever been able to explore a place on her own. She is also having an amazing time with all the girls and seems to love leading them around. Not to mention that you have so many interesting things on your island that I think they might be busy for a while," Cancer said as I walked over to sit on the couch beside her. I would have offered both women a drink, they had my cat wine glasses, and one of the ever-flowing wine bottles.
"I can understand that. I did put a lot of work into place, but I don't see time the same way that you do, and the other Zodiacs or any mortals. I lived 500 times just to get to this realm for Tallia, but even that number of lives is a pinhead compared to the number of lives that I lived before that. I have enjoyed every part of this island a thousand times over, so I don't even consider any of it even interesting. Knowing that people are enjoying it, especially Eliza, puts a smile on my face," I said, leaning back and putting my arm around Cancer.
"That is what they are doing. We should just let them have their own fun," Lexi said with a smirk, and I nodded my head. 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺
"I think that you are right. It's best not to interfere with those that are enjoying life," I said, and Cancer smiled and snuggled against me.
"That is true. Just let them be for now," she said, and I nodded my head before taking a sip of coffee.
"Yeah, I didn't come here to bother them. I actually came to talk with Lexi about the Elves. Listenia and Elfinia are not really that knowledgeable about the Ranks and their elders," I explained, and Lexi nodded, but Cancer pulled away from me slightly.
"Do you want me to leave so you two can talk in private?" She asked, but I shook my head no and pulled her back, kissing her forehead.
"No. There is nothing that we are talking about that is private, and I am enjoying having you close to me," I said, and Cancer smiled before snuggling back into me.
"So, if you are interested in learning more about the four elders, then I am sure that I can be of assistance. The Goddess and her daughter seemed to only care about what they had to do from what I know about them. They are normally too busy competing over small things, but I saw them more recently in Northwall at Listenia's shop. I was more than surprised to see Elfinia there with her, and then not sure if I was even talking to the same person. Never in this lifetime did I think that I would ever get to see her act so calm, and genuinely nice," Lexi explained, and I grinned.
"I won't lie or even pretend like it was easy to get her to where she is now, but the person you see now even seems like a stranger to me. When I say that, I mean that she has become someone that I never imagined she could, and I love her and this new leaf. I am sure that attitude is still there, but I think she will be more selective about it," I said, and Lexi nodded.
"I am just happy for both women. They both were always at each other's throats, and it was clear that it was slowly tearing them apart until it finally did. Now, Let us talk of the four High Elf Elders," Lexi said, and I nodded.
"Yes, I am trying to think of gifts for them, so I was wondering if you could tell me a bit about each woman? What do they take care of, what are their priorities, and if you might have any suggestions for gifts, what might those be?" I asked, and Lexi nodded as she took a deep breath before speaking as Cancer cuddled in closer to me.
"Well, Wendria might appreciate something that relates to hunting or gathering. Maybe a really fancy bow or arrow set or a new spear or something of the sort? Litany loves technology, so maybe something like an advanced gizmo or gadget could get her attention. Selvena is all about flowers and herbs, so something she can use in her garden or with her plants would show her your appreciation. And Airoyal's domain is avians, so anything related to birds would be great for her!" Lexi said, trying to think of ideas as Cancer started purring more loudly in response.
