2 Lira

Inside the castle-like building on the top of Laira Village, a man can be seen inside. He was putting his gold-colored and dragon-shaped bow at his back before then walking out from that place.

He was wearing a jet black modern armless shirt that revealed his muscular arms and short pants that revealed his muscular leg.

As he walked out from the building, he passed a large metallic and black colored gate guarded by two lion beastmen who wore some knight armor and a helmet on their head as an exception.

This man has a pointy nose and colorless lips adorning his face, with a pair of petite ears and a thin beard just below his lips to the chin. Overall, his appearance was quite decent. As he passed the gate, he told the guards there.

"I' ma out, don't randomly eat Metoria Sphere anymore, get it?"

They both nodded in unison with their face turning blue as they knew what that man was talking about.

The man left them with a helpless sigh coming out of his mouth. The memories come back to him that he was late. The man who had eaten the Metoria died. But he managed to complete the signing of the autopsy process to retrieve the Metoria sphere back.

He walked slowly as his short white hair similar to his older twin brother fluttered in the air.

He kept walking with the destination being the guildhall at the center of the Laira village. The area which had been focused on Lex and Kiana's side once again.

Lex asked her again.

"Do you know what's on his mind by any chance? Father once asked him to rule the empire, but he let his servant do his job instead."

As he asked so, he stared at her unique breast's unique size that had moved around as she cleaned the table that she had to clean up after dealing with the Ginkgo tea.

Looking at his lecherous look on her breast, she responded.

"I know you're my master, Lex. But I'm a thousand years plus older than you!! people will think that you are some weirdo to stare at a breast from a female elf, 'who is millennia years older than you.' So please..."

Lex smiled at her. In reality, he was doing it on purpose to test if she was faithful to his twin brother or not. Then he said,

"You're lying. But I can tell it as well that you loved my twin brother, name what you want. I will give it to you as long as you are willing to take care of my troublesome brother. Anyways, cold water, please."

She sighed tiredly, and then, she took a transparent colored glass.

She poured some cold water into the glass as the water was sourced from the tap water in front of her in the middle with a white label sealed on it.

She gave the glass to him with half-closed eyes. Full of cold water. 

He took that glass of water and saw the reflection on it before….well, drank it.

Glup glup glup glup glup glup...

"IM THERE, MADAFAKA!!"

A familiar voice sounds out from a random man who had said that word. At once, everyone there silenced with Lex as exceptional.

SPRUTTT!!

Lex spurted out the water he's now drinking as he knows exactly who that voice belongs to.

He placed the glass back quickly and then looked at his behind. There appears a man wearing a modern shirt on his body, with a face that looks almost exactly similar to him. But their difference could be seen when he greeted Kiana.

Smiling, that man then walks to the chair near where Lex had sat.

And he called her name as he came closer to her before he sat on the chair.

"Hey, sweetie..."

And then he kissed her chin. 

No matter how long they've known each other, it still feels a little weird for a mortal who was his younger twin. But still, nobody cared if it's him.

Kiana happily responded with a hug, and she said,

"You're back, Lira."

That man who called Lira replied wryly.

"Well. You know, that man really ate my Metoria sphere and was killed over its stupidly sweet taste!"

She laughed at that and said,

"Well... So it's real?"

Lira nodded.

As the younger twin and the female elf doing their lovey-dovey routine, Lex beside them then said.

"Stop with that cinnamon roll crap kid, and I have no interest in that!"

As he said that, the younger twin who saw his expression then realized that his face now was the kind that he used when he pretended nothing had ever happened.

And then, he loosened the hug with Kiana and then sat near him.

"Just tell me straight away, bro... you're just jealous." He said.

Lex turned his face from him with a scoff.

"Ah, as if!" He said.

Both Lira, that younger twin, and the female elf then chuckled together.,

"Give me a jug of bubble tea, can you?" Lira told her.

She nodded as she had already prepared it.

She took the jug of orange-colored bubble tea.

Lira took the jug in exchange for her as she seems to be having a hard time dealing with it.

And then, Lira happily drank the liquid on it while a smile was made on his face as he did it.

And seeing him drink it in one shot, Lex asked him.

"Do you have any plans for the Seikara Empire?"

And the one who's being asked responded,

"Well, Lex. The reason why I actually let Mari govern cuz of her nice decision making. So yeah, I have no plans of getting out of Seikara Village until I find out where dad and mom are."

Lex, who heard that, replied to him.

"They're dead, Lira. Don't bother to find them anymore since they are on the grave anyways."

Lira didn't believe him. And he also doesn't want to bring up that topic here. So, he said,

"You know, Lex, they kinda revived. So, I will try to find them. Of course, it doesn't mean that I will stick to that plan since God knows what will happen in the future. Anyway, how about you, Lex? do you have any plans in the future?"

Lex smiled at his obvious attempt to change the topic, as he said.

"Well, It's time for me to resign from my knighthood. And I want to use my power. To open everyone's eyes about race neutrality, I've seen so many slaveries. And... I wish I could stop them, but I'm not a superhuman. I am just a mere Dragon Mortal... Still... I don't know if I could achieve it, but Let's try it out. Are you in for helping me with that, Lira?"

Lira, who heard this statement of his, then responded.

"I'm down with you."

He smiled at that, and then. He told Kiana,

"I'ma leaving, Kiana. Help me to pamper my twin brother with anything you have. Can you?"

Kiana, who took Lira's glass, said.

"Leave it to me!"

And the story continues.
