Chapter- 31

—--------------

[ The Azureon home planet is called Glaciara , Glaciara is a frozen world covered in glaciers, ice caps, and snow. It is home to a variety of ice creatures adapted to living in the extreme cold, including the Azureon, a race of humanoid beings with blue-tinplanterkin, fur-lined clothing, and the ability to control ice and snow ]

[ The Azureon are hardy and resilient people, but they are also very proud and territorial, fiercely attacking other beings and looting resources from outside. Despite their aggressive nature, the Azureon are skilled hunters and gatherers, and have a deep respect for their king ]

'I see then I am guessing this planet must be their next target?' I inwardly asked this since they basically behave like bandits

[ Yes and No, according to my database they don't have any means of travelling through space but still, my current database of this universe is from 200 Years ago, I can't be certain for now ]

[ If you like I can update my database to the current time of this universe ]

'Sure but make sure to be quick I said this in my mind since I need more information to plan out my next move

'Do you know anything about this kid?' I asked this inwardly as I looks at the sleeping bunny ears girl in my arms

[ Yes, she belongs to species known as Hareling belong to this world, hareling are non-aggressive species unlike Azureons who relied on hunting and looting for living, harlings relied on nature for sustenance ]

[ Similar to your kind, this species also possesses unique abilities referred to as 'gifts'. Every member of the species has distinct 'gifts', such as fire, water, earth, wind, and more, which they utilise to enhance their daily lives and make them more convenient. ]

'but even if we presume the Possibility of somehow Azureons managing to travel across to this world, then why wouldn't hareling defend their home when they can do so?' I thought this because even if they are non-aggressive species

it should be a natural instinct for any living being to defend their home, not to mention when the ability to do so

[ I suspect there should be two reasons for this: the first reason is they are very inexperienced in battles ]

[ The planet was nearly impenetrable due to the multiple layers of asteroids encircling it, serving as an impenetrable shield. Additionally, the planet's inhabitants were blessed by nature, with all their needs met seamlessly - from food and shelter to clothing and more. It was a paradise, both protected and provided for by the universe itself. ]

[ Regarding the second rationale, in order to utilise their innate abilities, harlings require access to the natural energy derived from the environment. Unfortunately, the prevailing weather conditions have taken a severe toll on nature, leading to its gradual decay and decline ]

"I see" I murmured as I found these reasons reasonable, but still the question remains about what's happening here.

I felt some movement in my arms, I looked down to see the girl's eyes lashes moving after a moment she slowly opened her eyes revealing her red-ruby-like eyes

"W-where? Wh-where am I?..." She asked in a confused tone, as she regained consciousness

"Beautiful" She unconsciously muttered as she looks straight at my face with her red eyes

*Chuckle* Finally a normal reaction from a person who sees my appearance, after being with that man who always has a stoic face I even began to suspect that my charm has started to decline

"W-who are you?" She asked this cautiously while shuttering as she tries to get out of my arms

But due to her body injuries she falls back into my arms, I can feel her whole body trembling in my arms… I guess she must be scared of outsiders

"It's ok, you are in a safe place now" I spoke in a soft tone as I started to pat her head slowly, luckily I got my fair share of experience in coaxing a child, especially with my little sister

"*Sob* *Sob* *Sob*" Maybe because of my warmth and soft tone, she stopped struggling while her eyes started to become teary as she started crying loudly

After a while of crying, she calm down… in a meantime I kept stroking her back giving her comfort

"Are you ok now?" I asked in a soft tone when she become silent after crying, in response to my question she nodded her head slowly

"W-Where *sniff* is th-that *sniff* m-man?" She looked up at me with her ruby-red eyes and asked me this with her trembling voice

I got troubled by her question, more like I don't know how to answer her back since she is just a child and I can't tell a child I just killed someone, not to mention she was not an ordinary devil's kid but a kid which belong to a race who don't like Violence

When I struggled about how to answer her, she open her mouth again as she speak again but in an emotionless tone while staring straight at me with her eyes "did you kill him?"

I was taken aback by the lack of emotion in her voice. I couldn't help but recall the moment when she screamed about murdering that man. With that memory fresh in my mind, I knew I had to come clean with her. However, when it came time to explain, I found myself unable to form the words. In the end, all I could do was nod my head in agreement.

"*sigh* Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you… " She released a sigh of relief as she kept saying this again and again like a broken record in a grateful tone with her eyes shut

Honestly, I don't happen to this girl, but I can tell it's definitely no good, in fact so bad she can't able to stabilise her emotions

"It's alright now, can you answer my question please," I said in the most gentle tone possible as I patted her head and make her look towards me

"Ok," She said in a cute voice, as she stared at me with her big red eyes
