Seed after seed, she repeats her meticulous operation until her little bag is empty. To check how the one who is now almost her first friend is doing, she turns to the teenager.
Seeing the beautiful, relaxed young girl, peacefully leaning against a tree, throwing her precious seeds one after the other into her mouth, Alice thinks she is going crazy and she falls to her knees on the ground. To acquire these precious seeds, she had to spend the equivalent of 2 months of her pocket money and now this kid swallows them? This is not even the problem. Even if she would be a descendant of the people of the Three Moons of Kur, it is impossible that she could swallow these seeds without being instantly burned from the inside.
"Rea.s.sure me, Lucy. My precious seeds aren't not too strong in taste?"
Without even seeming to question this request made in a somewhat ironic tone, the teenage girl throws another seed in her mouth. Certainly to give her an appropriate answer, she chews it slowly, and only when she gets the right answer does young Lucy swallow her sweetness.
"You're a good girl, but don't worry about me. I am in the habit of mixing my chicken wings with all the herbs I can find in the guild of Caius, so even if the taste of your seeds is not frankly very delicate to the palate, I shall not reproach you too much for it. You still have one of those things you call Sushi at Otoro?"
The young woman's eyes harden for a moment, but here she's alone and this kid has something that makes her feel so close to her... It's been so long since she left her land to... Yes, it's already been two year since she entered this world with a false ident.i.ty and a face that isn't exactly hers. Come to think of it, she's not so pretty with green eyes, but when you're on a secret mission, you have to be able to make sacrifices and her beauty is one of them.
"Forget the seeds. Let's go back to town, because I'm feeling sticky. Lucy, what are you looking at?"
Ever since she met that Alice, something's been bothering Lucy. True, this face is only a disguise, but it is nevertheless very close to that girl's and that's precisely the problem. This young woman could be her old twin sister. The hair, the nose, the eyes, everything is the same... Lucy forgets Alice's face a little and looks down to study the young woman's body better.
The teenager suddenly realizes that in some places they are both very different. Lucy puts her eyes on her small chest and for some reason, she feels an immense anger rising inside her. Now particularly upset in her self-esteem, she takes her little bundle of pebbles out of her pocket which is usually reserved for her cat and throws one at this pretentious woman.
"Do you think that because you put your two huge melons forward, I'm going to feel inferior to you? Do you think that because I'm slightly smaller in some ways, that gives you the right to intimidate me like you do? Of course not, I still have many years to properly develop myself. However, as she doesn't like pretentious women, Lucy is offended and won't talk to the fool anymore."
Adolescence is certainly a difficult time, especially when the girl in question is not so smart. Amused, but trying to hide one of her rare smiles, the young woman runs behind the teenage girl who is heading in the wrong direction.
At her level, seeing this angry little rat's head, Alice is suddenly taken by a violent desire to annoy this child who seems to get angry easily. As if her whole body was only pain, in a long complaint, Alice straightens her back and takes out her large bust.
"We must go this way, hollow head. In another equally problematic register: Lucy, if you knew how fed up I am. My back hurts so much... You can't understand how women feel, but wait till you have b.r.e.a.s.t.s and then you'll think back on my words. Besides, I'm not spoiled on this side. You know, I've been to many stores and only two of them sell the very large size bras I wear. Ahhh, I have to admit, I envy you a little. It's true, being as flat as a breadboard also has its good sides. Hey, Lucy? Lucy? Hmm? What's the matter with you? You got a complex about your, um, tiny size, so you're sulking? Oh...
In order to avoid the hand going towards her face, Alice jumps backwards.
...interesting. Come here, little girls with no b.r.e.a.s.t.s."
"You, you're going to get slapped."
Surrounded by a black aura she contains not to reveal her true nature, the bad-tempered teenager rushes towards the young woman.
Watching from afar, the two furies who have already fought six times since they entered their forest, now locally, less leafy than a sand dune, a strange bird whose beak is longer than her body, flees in haste.
(Slap) The teenager's hand strikes the beautiful face of the young woman, who, seeing the girl's foot rising to the level of her belly, was surprised by this treacherous attack. The young woman disappears from her position to materialize a few feet away.
"Do you really want your correction, you flat little girl?"
In these kingdoms where only the weak live, for a warrior like Alice, finding a worthy opponent to spar with is no different than finding Gina's secret drawer for an explorer like Jean.
"(Ascending body)"
As soon as her hearing perceives the air vibrating around her, the teenager panics a little. This technique has already hurt her cheeks twice, and now this girl with an over-equipped bust is doing it again. (Slap), (Slap)
Lucy doesn't have time to figure out where the attacks are coming from. In fact, she can't see anything. (Slap) Slaps come from her right, (Slap) another from her left and yet the annoying young woman stands still 15ft in front of her. Subjected to an endless slap torture, the revelation appears to her when something immaterial crosses her black aura. It is immaterial, but it nevertheless disturbs the energy contained in her aura and thanks to this simple flaw in the technique that prevented her from moving towards the young woman who never stops mocking her, after having extended her aura, Lucy circ.u.mvents the six long invisible tentacles that never stop attacking her and heads straight away towards her enemy of the moment.
"You, the pretentious one, this time it's your turn to have burning cheeks."
…
Blows help build friendships that are stronger than rock. This is Alice's favourite saying as she looks out of town at a pile of branches that Lucy is pulling out and discovers what her new little sister has told her so much about. "Is this your cat?"
Lucy nods cheerfully and throws a small stone that she has just taken out of her pocket, to the unfortunate beast who hides it head between its paws. "Yes, how do you like my cat?"
Alice observes this thing vibrating everywhere and no, it is definitely not to her taste. "Hmm, it is still pretty ugly, right?"
Lucy is sad that her big sister thinks that about her cat, but she must admit that it is true that this animal does not look like much. "I confess it is anything but pretty, but it is very comfortable. Try it on and you'll see That it makes a perfect couch."
Alice jumps where the finger of the beautiful teenage girl point, and it is true that the hair is soft. "It reminds me of my old sofa... It's fluffy and the leather is neither too hard nor too soft, aaah, what a nostalgic feeling..."
Lucy knows how hard it is to be away from home. By seeing the sad eyes of her pretty new big sister, she puts her hand in her pocket and willingly hands her little bag to her. "You want to throw rocks at it?"
