The two of them, Elena and Kai go through the forest to find Kai's sister who first passed the path there. Still the same as before, this forest was relatively peaceful and had no problems whatsoever. The two of them did not meet any ferocious beasts at all or needed to do a fight. There are only trees and small animals that seem harmless.
“Your goal is to find Penther for your sister, ‘right? As it were, it could be obtained in a peaceful forest like this?” ask Elena who is walking behind Kai.
“As you know, there aren't too many animals or strong Penthers in this forest. But, just a moment ago, we saw one that was quite strong and promising,” Kai replied flatly while remaining focused on the road ahead of him.
‘Intinya, all animals in the world can use Centher Energy although there are differences for each animal because of different skill levels. Animals that can only use low Energy Centher are still called “animal”, while more expert ones are starting to be called “Penther”. Actually, this is not about the nickname they have, but rather leads to how the habit of people in this world call them.’
‘According to the little history I got from Kai during this talk, Penther had just appeared in this world a few hundred years ago, so some humans may still be used to calling them using the designation “animal”. If you use the standard language of this world, it seems Penther is used more often.’
“By the way, I forgot to ask you yet what your sister's name is. Can you tell him?” ask Elena to come up with a sweet smile.
“He is Pyro Leon, a few years younger than me. Sometimes, he does become a bad boy and likes to interfere with other people's affairs, but I guarantee he is actually a good boy. If you are not strong to be around him because of his energetic attitude, it is better that you stay away from him without saying anything,” replied Kai flatly.
‘Ah, she didn't even turn around in the slightest while answering.’ Elena's smile dried up, and she continued, ‘Aren't you supposed to be more friendly to the person you're talking to? I know, I am only 9 years old and will be 10 years in using the count on this body, but please pay attention to me better.’
‘But, I started to realize something from this conversation. The people of this world have a surname that lies ahead. Maybe I should call myself Madison Elena so as not to cause misunderstanding in the call. To be honest, I don't like to flip my name like that, but since it's customary in this world ...want how else, ‘kan? Where the earth is trampled, there the sky is revered.’
‘By the way, the previous boy's physique cannot be underestimated. Although I hate him, but I cannot ignore his physical strength that managed to survive falling from a height of several meters. I could have easily done much better than that when I had enough natural energy or wore psychic abilities, but it would be hard to just use raw physical strength.’
It took a while until the two of them finally found Kai's younger brother-Leon-. Elena and Kai just took a leisurely walk in the forest and they also did not expect to find Leon in such a short time in this vast forest. Being able to find it before it became dark had become a fortune to the two of them, especially Elena wanted to quickly get out of this forest and rest.
There, Leon is putting his head in the bushes so it only shows his back. He was looking for something intensely and was unaware of the arrival of Elena and Kai who were right behind him. Previously, he also did not realize that he had stepped on Elena's face, indicating that he was not a sensitive person.
“Kakak!” Leon turned around and continued, “Unfortunately no. The penther we saw from the previous height seemed to go deeper into the forest and I lost track of it. I thought, I could find it if I ran as hard as I could to it.”
While the two of them were talking to each other, Elena noticed the stature of Leon who was Kai's younger brother. She was the same age as Elena and had a stature similar to Kai. But unlike Kai who wears a jacket, he wears a white shirt with no sleeves and red pants down to the knees.
“Hmm, who's the girl?” Leon looked at Elena up close and with his eyes narrowed.
“No need to stare like that either, ‘kan? You are right in front of me, and I can see your face too clearly,” Elena replied coldly.
“He is the person you previously stepped on his face when forcibly descending from a height, it is better to apologize to him or myself who will give you punishment.” Kai gives a gripping laugh around him as he looks deadly at Leon.
“Ma-Sorry. I wasn't focused at all and didn't see anyone there. I'm so sorry for my previous behavior.” Leon bowed his head to Elena from feeling the bloodthirsty air of her deadly brother. Then, he again raised his head and said, “I am Pyro Leon. You may have heard it from my sister, but I want to introduce myself. You can call me Leon and let's be good friends from now on.”
“Hmph! I will see your attitude towards me for the future. I can't just trust the person who just stepped on my face while walking through the woods.” Elena folded her hands together with her closing her eyes and turned her gaze in the other direction.
Seeing that, Leon's eyes were fixed on Elena's left arm. But after a while, he shook his head and said, “I'm really sorry about what I did before. Please don't sulk at me for the future. Although all the friends in my hometown mostly prefer to stay away from me, I think I am a good person.’
‘How can you judge yourself! It is precisely others who will judge you and give their views about your place in society! Judging yourself only from a personal point of view, doesn't that mean you are very insensitive to something around you? Do you want me to hit your head a few times, ha! After you said about this, I instead became unsure of making friends with you.’
Elena opened one of her right eyes and glanced at Leon, then said, “Hah. After all, I have no acquaintances around here. The more people, then this will be the better, ‘kan. But, if you do a no-no to me in the future, I will hit you hard and make you regret.”
