175 Lily 1 After they were sent away, teleported by the headmistress, Lily secretly hoped to get paired with her sister or someone she was family with, and being someone who had gotten almost everything she ever wished for since the day she was born, Lily thought this time it would be the same thing. She was humming happily when she opened her eyes after getting teleported but she stopped humming when she saw who gonna be her partner. ”You must be joking with me. Why I must be paired with an oddball like you.” She complained, visibly not happy to see him here. She was even showing signs of hostility toward the man. However, facing her hostility Orpheus was relatively calm as he said. ”I have somewhere to go, you can start without me.” ”What?” Immediately after saying those words he spun around and started walking in an unknown direction and Lily who was expecting something else was dumbfounded. Judging by his obvious interest in them, she thought maybe he would try to convince her to be his partner, he would be gentle with her like he seemed to be with her sister but apparently, she was having a quite big misunderstanding, he didn’t even blink before turning his back on her and began walking towards the unknown. Lily became irritated at the huge difference in treatment and wanted to curse him but stopped when seeing that the other party had no intention of stopping. At this rate he would disappear completely from her sight, something for some unknown reason she didn’t want, so she began to run after him. She would stick with him and annoy him to get a little revenge on him, it was what she thought, how she convinced herself to follow after him. Unaware that the moment she started following him, Orpheus’s mouth curled up slightly into a smirk, the fish had been hooked. It was time to spend some time with this little girl he found quite intriguing, he must confirm how it happened, how two different bodies share the same soul wavelength meaning they are two bodies but it was the same soul. He had never expected to meet Lily here but the moment he met her, this plan, the plan of spending time with Lily was decided on the spot. As for their mission, the expedition inside the ruins, he cares less, he was not worried because it could be accomplished in the blink of an eye, spending time doing his things was more important than some academic’s activity. After she caught up with him, Lily questioned Orpheus while crossing her arms. ”We are we going?” ”To a city.” ”To do what?” ”To have fun.” Upon hearing his answer, Lily’s ice-blue eyes trembled, visibly moved by the word fun. She momentarily forget about the expedition and the only thing she could think about was which city it would be and how fun this was going to be. Orpheus said nothing but transformed his appearance to that of normal-looking youth, Lily nodded and also changed her appearance. After putting on their respective disguise, Orpheus took Lily’s hand which she reluctantly let him handle before they disappeared. ‘You are more mysterious and interesting than I thought. Let me use this opportunity to thoroughly investigate you and show your true colors.’ Lily secretly decided. °°°°°° Borderline the demi-humans continent is a small country. The country of Covina is a huge country with a population of 600 000 people. Bordered by rough beaches to the North, a large mountain to the South, a jungle to the East, and a jungle to the West, the country of Covina mainly lives off the carpeting, wood production, and tourism. This country had a long story. Covina itself is mainly covered in shallow rivers and has a dry climate, which has led to a compactly concentrated population, despite the number of people, which means most of them to live in big cities. The country’s landscape is gloomy; wild, overgrown forests, rushing rivers and icy springs are just a sliver of the foulness Covina has to offer, which is why the country is a skipped destination among foreigners. The people of Covina are kind towards foreigners and tend to welcome them with companionship. They feel foreigners could raise the country’s well-being. Covina has pleasant laws and law enforcement, which is to be expected. The people are happy due to their rich lands, thanks to constantly improving themselves. This is also reflected in the country’s flag, which has a large star in light gold, dark bronze, and white. Their coat of arms is two feathers on top of three small circles. The capital of this small country shared the same name as the country’s name and unlike most of the cities, this city was beautiful like any normal city of the continent. The city of Covina, the capital of the Covina country was built amidst the lush grasses of an evergreen pasture and is truly a contemporary curiosity. Its charm is matched by the backdrop of cascading waterfalls which have helped shape the city into what it is today. The climate these waterfalls brought were of great importance, but they were also influential when it came to architectural designs as the vast majority of buildings mimic the falling waters of those waterfalls, sometimes by having their man-made waterfalls. The skyline is scattered with luxurious medium skyscrapers and many show their age and rich history. Parks and gardens are flourishing in Covina and it has attracted a lot of attention. Many different cultures have left their mark not just on the city’s history, but also on the city’s identity. What historically was a city of few differences has grown into a fusion of everything and it’s this that unites the 200 000 people to this day. It’s this multicultural identity that has truly left its mark. Hundreds of food carts, gastropubs, and bakeries offer a plethora of culinary choices and those who feel hungry for something else can enjoy tours, arcades, the national park, or one of the many other recreational venues. Orpheus choose this city for a reason, this city was his birthplace, at least the city he first opened his eyes in. Back in the day, during the war, he did everything in his power to minimize the damage to this city, maybe in the hope of one day finding some clues. The moment they entered this city, a feeling of nostalgia hit Lily, she frowned as she couldn’t remember having ever set foot in this city, they must be a reason and she was hell-bent on finding what reason it is. The Novel will be updated first on this website. Come back and continue reading tomorrow, everyone!
