"Like A Dead Log"
"I-I will take care of Blaze!" The blue elf stammered as he blushed. The elf was already an adult even when in the elf's age, but his mentality was no different from children.
"I-I...I want to take care of...B-Blaze. S-she likes me...I-I can't leave her alone..." Axelle mustered all his courage to take the heavy responsibility of raising Blaze.
Somehow, he knew that this was Ainsley's trick to change his personality, but...but he didn't mind it at all.
On the contrary, he felt that...Ainsley trusted him so much until she left the precious baby phoenix to him.
I...I can't let down master's trust and Blaze's affection toward me!
Axelle didn't hate Blaze, who had pure phoenix bloodline but got a wrong mutation to be a water phoenix. If anything, he felt that...the baby resembled him a lot.
Someone with a strange bloodline. Someone not wanted by their own brethren. And someone...pitiful.
