Chapter 1183: Meeting Old Friends 1
To have some fun before departing, Maria and company decided to go visit the Dwarf Kingdom again after a long while, bringing forth new faces that had never visited the place, such as Fabian and his friends, and also Nia, Celes, and Eustace.
"Woah, what with this place?" Fabian gasped. "So many things... and steam?!"
"Why is that carriage moving on its own?! It has no horses?" Beery jumped out of surprise.
"Look! Look! They're selling some weird fluffy colorful thing, it smells sweet! What's that? they're making it using a machine!" said Spectra.
"It looks so colorful, but smells like sugar...?" Nick asked.
"This place's so incredible!" Garon said.
"That's cotton candy kids," said Maria with a giggle. "They make it using a special machine, it's really tasty! Do you want to give it a try?"
"I want too!" Celes jumped, grabbing Maria's dress.
"Of course dear! Let's go have some cotton candy then!" Maria nodded with a giggle. "Nyx, want some too?"
"Oooh, cotton candy?! Yeaah!" Nyx came running towards Maria after she was called. She was mostly distracted from looking everywhere.
As they all ran to buy cotton candy for the kids, there was a couple here that were having a date together amidst all the chaos.
"This place is so amazing... I never visited this place before, Veredorr..." Tear smiled as she looked around, holding the hand of her boyfriend.
"It is a pretty amazing place, yeah!" Veredorr nodded, his pale skin was growing red from all the steam everywhere. "Really hot though... I visited it when I was a ghost, so I didn't feel it at all, but yeah, this place's really something... How can dwarves just be fine in this heat?"
"Haha! I guess we're the weirdos here, we're too used to the cold," giggled Tear.
"I suppose so," Veredorr smiled, looking at Tear's adorable attire, she was wearing a very beautiful white summer dress, and a comfortable-looking straw hat for the sun that was rather strong in the mornings here. "You look beautiful today as well."
"E-Eh?" Tear was caught off guard with the sudden compliment, growing as red as a tomato, her blue skin turning red was also a very cute thing. "Geez... I am not that pretty... Seriously, I don't know what you find cute about me..."
"Everything?" Veredorr laughed. "You're the most beautiful woman in the world, Tear."
"V-Veredorr, you're embarrassing me...!" Tear covered her face with her big hands, as Veredorr smiled happily.
He never thought that after his sacrifice he would somehow come back to life, even after everything that has happened, even after Tear became what she did...n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
It was all thanks to her, to Maria, that he and Tear could now share a walk, like a normal couple, flirt with one another, and smile carefreely.
"Sorry, maybe I went a bit too far..." Veredorr sighed. "I'm just... so happy to be here now, with you. I know it sounds ridiculous but, every time you caressed my Soul Core, every time you talked to me... I heard it, I always did."
"Really?" Tear skipped a beat.
"Yes, and I felt relieved you were there for me, even when I had died, even when my own existence... was barely a fragment of my own self," sighed Veredorr. "Your words, your warmth, your caress... I still remember them, and I also remember hearing you and everyone else, through the many adventures you had. A lot happened, isn't it? You've changed too, Tear. Those adventures, those hardships... They've made you stronger and more dependable than ever before."
"Heh... W-Well! Of course! I did a lot, right? I grew stronger, and I am still trying to redeem myself, but with you at my side, I know I can do it," she smiled. "I-I... I love you Veredorr..."
"Tear..." Veredorr felt shocked by her confession out of nowhere. "I love you too!"
"Veredorr!"
"Tear!"
Veredorr's big giant girlfriend grabbed him with her hands and lifted him up, as she carried him the two kissed lovingly.
It was a rather unusual scene, the size difference was very apparent, and many of the citizens watched with surprise.
Most of the dwarves laughed a bit at it, some smiled, others felt embarrassed, but they couldn't care less about what the world had to say about their relationship.
Right now, the two were together, and that's all what mattered, they were happy together, in their own world.
"Want me to buy you some cotton candy? I saw that you were eyeing it for a while," Veredorr sat over Tear's shoulder.
"E-Eh?! Ah... well, it does look a bit interesting..." Tear gulped saliva.
Veredorr knew from back then when they lived close to one another, that Tear would devour any sweets he would rarely find, fruits, little candies, anything would do for her.
As everyone continued their day there, Maria and her family finally reached a friend's house, a dwarf mother of many, married to a Majin man.
Knock, knock!
"Hello! Is someone there~?"
She knocked the door very loudly, until someone came running to open the door angrily.
"Okay who is it?! Who is knocking the door so damn hard you piece of shit- Ah, Maria?! Long time no see!"
It was a beautiful dwarf woman with red hair made into braids and freckles, with a tomboyish attitude and a motherly smile.
"Helga! I brought the whole family today! Can we fit inside?"
"Woah, what in the world?! You sure got a HUGE family!" laughed Helga. "Good thing we got a larger house now! Lucifer! Emeraldine, Partner! How have you been?!"
"We've been good, thank you Helga, a lot has happened," Lucifer smiled warmly.
"Yeah, too much I would say!" giggled Emeraldine. "Glad to see you fine and healthy!"
"Yep! We fought a few monsters here and there, a few gods... but it's alright," Partner nodded. "Honest to god work."
"E-Eh? Wait, what?!" Helga gasped. "Okay, you gotta tell me all of that right now! Myriad! Kids! We've got guests! Maria came back!"
"Wait, what? Maria?!" Myriad responded from afar, Maria assumed he was on his workshop
most likely.
"Auntie Mariaaaa!"
"Uncle Lucifer!"
"Auntie Emeraldine is here?"
"Auntie Partner looks so beautiful!"
And also all five of Helga and Myriad children came running, it was a big family, but even
then, they were very welcoming.
