59 Chapter 59: Meeting The Mother And Daughter Duo

Another day started with Mythander lazily reading a book on his favorite tree branch.

Mythander suddenly looked down from the tree, little Akeno was busy making her way up the tree. Mythander watched her in curiosity, wanting to know what she was up to. After climbing up to one of the lowest branches Akeno sat there while looking very proud of herself.

"Akeno!, What are you doing get down from there!"

A feminine voice called as Shuri came out of the house looking worriedly at Akeno. Akeno was startled and quickly made her way down the tree only to slip midway. Before she knew it she was free-falling and the ground was nearing at an incredible speed. She closed her eyes and waited for the coming impact.

Shuri was beside herself when she saw Akeno slip and fall.

"Akeno!"

She cried out as she rushed towards the tree in a bid to catch the girl, unfortunately, she was only a normal human and had no means to traverse the distance quick enough. She could only watch as her daughter near the ground.

Shuri's dread thought quickly disappeared as her eyes widened with surprise, Akeno, who was a mere meter away from hitting the ground, was currently levitating in place.

Akeno who's eyes were closed felt something was wrong since she did not feel any pain in hitting the ground, she opened her eyes and found herself levitating a meter from the ground. She looks around and found Shuri standing about fifteen meters away staring at her with wide eyes.

"Mommy, watch happening?" Akeno asked Shuri, which brought her out of her shock and she quickly approached Akeno and took her into her arms. Just as she grabbed her Akeno fell into her grasp as whatever powers that were controlling holding her disappeared.

"Never ever do that again, do you hear me?" Shuri said as she held Akeno, Akeno could only nod as she was still in shock of what happened and tears were streaming from her eyes.

Hight in the tree, Mythander watched the two, he was the one that saved Akeno, as he didn't see a reason to let the girl get hurt if he could stop her fall. She wouldn't have been killed by the fall since she was a half-fallen angel but it definitely would have hurt her.

After Shuri was sure Akeno was fine she looked around, she was sure somebody helped Akeno, the girl couldn't have levitated by herself! even if she was part fallen angel she still needed her wings to fly or magic to levitate herself, his wings haven't come out yet and her magical ability was too weak to do that.

"Is anybody out there?" Shuri called out after solidifying her thoughts of somebody helping Akeno.

'Well this is unexpected, well might as well greet them now.' Mythandar thought to himself as he lightly pushed himself from the tree branch and glided down the tree, disengaging his camouflage while he was at it.

Shuri's eyes once again opened wide as she saw a person in a hoody slowly glide from atop the tree, she didn't even notice him before he left the tree.

Mythander landed a respectable five meters from Shuri and Akeno, who was now also staring at him with wide eyes.

'I want to do that' Akeno thought as she saw Mythander glide from the top of the tree.

"Greetings, I do apologize for intruding, but it seemed that the little one needed a bit off help" Mythander spoke in a very ethereal sounding voice, that had a strange accent.

Shuri stared at the man in the hoody for a long time, she didn't know what to say, she asked him to come out but she didn't expect that he would really come.

"Who are you?"

Luckily Akeno was there to come to the rescue, she stared curiously at Mythandar as she asked her question.

" Mythandar at your service, pleasure"

Mythandar gave a slight bow before removing his hoody, showcasing his face in all its glory. The sharp facial features combined with his large forest-green eyes and white shoulder-length hair made a striking and beautiful picture. He would almost look feminine if it weren't for his jawline and nose taking on a more masculine form.

Shuri kept staring at him, she looked as if her soul was taken as she stared at Mythander in a dreamy-eyed way. 'Sorry Baraqiel' Mythander thought as she looked at Shuri's current state.

Akeno also had a very big reaction when she saw him, her eyes were blazing with light as she spoke in shock, "Wow you're so beautiful", causing Mythander to give her a smile brightening his face and making it even more attractive. Poor Shuri who was just about to recover had her soul stolen once more.

Mythander gave Shuri her time, he knew all too well the reaction his appearance had when people of other races saw him or any elf for that matter, they were not known as the children of nature for nothing. They were born with inherent beauty and etherealness, grace that would put even felines to shame and morals as pure as the forest they called there home.

Elves would rarely kill, they were more concerned with protecting live than taking it, there were only a few times that an elf would drive himself to such horror. Unfortunately, Mythander never had a choice.

Shuri finally recovered from her absentness, her face was flushed red as she recalled what she just did.

"Ah...I'm sorry...and thank you," Shuri said as she bowed towards Mythander.

"No matter, and thank you little one, but I believe you are even more beautiful," Mythander said to Shuri and Akeno, causing Akeno to smile as she puffed herself up in pride a Shuri to smile as she looked at Akeno's reaction.

...

"Would you like some tea?" Shuri asked as they sat in her house at the table.

"Yes please", Mythander said as he held out his cup and Shuri filled it with freshly brewed tea.

"Thank you," Mythander said as he siped.

"Delicious"

"I'm glad you like it", Shuri said as she siped her his own cup.

"Hehe... Mommy makes the best tea" Akeno said while giggling.

"I'm sure she does", Mythander said to her as he took another sip.

His eye's caught Shuri staring at his ears but she quickly looked away when she was caught.

"You probably never saw an elf before huh," Mythander said Bemusedly, causing Shuri to go red again.

"What's an elf", Akeno asked

"Well little one that what I am"

After finishing his tea, Mythander stood up a bit the Mother and Daughter duo goodbye. After leaving their house, Mythander's face went dark as he looked back at the little house with sorrow in his eyes.

'No wonder Baraqiel was gone for so long', Mythander thought.
