Recovering (Family Outing) Part 12

Yumie screamed out she didn't even wait for anyone to respond as she was already way ahead of them to start the search. Everyone was shocked to see Yumie lose her composure since it was a pretty rare occasion, but they then remembered her words saying something about Blood which all of them had also smelled and when they took a closer look, they then saw that it actually came from where Yuki was sitting. It has stained the beautiful green grass with her crimson-red blood.

"She was actually suffering when she was telling her story, but none of us even saw it. Do we really deserve to be with her if we can't even understand how she is feeling?" Anna knelt on the ground helplessly as she begins to be reminded of the past of how they would always get from Yuki without her expecting something in return from them because in reality what she only wants from them is their company, she only hopes that none of them would leave her. But what have they done for her? There was nothing even worth mentioning other than them saving Yuki when her Soul Realm got badly injured and after that, there was nothing more, it was always Yuki helping them in all sorts of ways.

"Let's settle this matter later when we find our Daughter, but it seems that is not going to be that easy since that kid actually knows how to hide herself with her abundance of Mana and because she was born here she practically knows this area like the back of her hand. Let's only hope that we can fix our situation because if we don't…" Ayame, who was trying her best not to burst out in tears, said with a heavy voice as she stood up and began to think of ways she could find her daughter. And because she was very limited, she was just like a Mortal who has no powers, all she can only do is fly around and be lucky if she can find Yuki.

"Don't worry Mother, I know a way to find her. But if it may be rude for me to say this, can I ask all of you to keep this a secret?" Anna said as she removed her necklace that hides her real appearance and after she removed it, they finally saw her true appearance which was something they would never think of as a possibility. A living vampire was actually in front of all of them, the Race who was rumored extinct, but it turns out that it was wrong since how would it be able to explain the Vampire who was in front of them? But not only that she was an ethereal beauty who would make anyone in the Realm of Gods to be envious of her, also with the necklace losing its effect, they were also able to see her true Cultivation Level which was surprisingly at the Spirit Lord already.

Kurokami ignored all of their stares as she walked up to the blood-stained chair to get some blood on her fingers before she licked it after tasting it, she still that it was the most delicious Blood she has ever tasted in her whole life, nothing could compare with Yuki's Blood for her. But tasting it so she can enjoy it was not her intention, she drank it so that she can track her location because it was most likely that Yuki's hand is still bleeding or had some blood in it that she can sniff out.

"I know where Yuki is now… She's on the very top of the mountain that is at the deep end of the Moon Rock Forest. Let's go now, also inform Yumie." Kurokami said in a tone full of worry as she can only hope that Yuki is safe and that she wouldn't do anything that can hurt her especially now that she is emotionally unstable. And without wasting any more time, all of them had to quickly leave the area to follow Kurokami.

Meanwhile, on the top of the mountain, Yuki was sitting there motionless as if she was a robot, but if someone takes a better closer look at her they would sympathize with her and try their best to comfort her. A cute and beautiful little girl with a pale face and a pained expression was enough to make anyone who would see her give her a hug to try and comfort her. But it looks like there was already a person who would fit that job.

The little Phoenix who was snuggling in Yuki's sleeve was finally awoken and flew outside to only see his Master with a pained look and looking at it made him sad. So without any hesitation, he flew towards her chest and spread out her tiny wings which were just a few inches long, and hugged Yuki who was suddenly brought out of her daze before looking at the tiny creature who was trying its best to hug her.

"What are you trying to do?" Yuki asked in a slightly cold tone, but even so, she didn't stop the little phoenix from trying to hug her because she felt something different in her heart after being hugged by him. And it wasn't any unpleasant feeling at all, in contrast, she felt herself slowly becoming better, even if it was just a little, she still felt more at ease with him hugging her.

"Chirp!!"

"Fufufu~ Are you trying to comfort me?" Yuki asked with a light smile as she slowly began to calm down, after her emotions went wild she couldn't seem to control it anymore as she was slowly getting devoured by her own emotion which made her unstable. She doesn't even know why she was feeling so pained even though she was uninjured, the hand that she injured doesn't even hurt, but compared to the pain that she was feeling in her chest, it was not even comparable at this point.

"Do you know why I feel this kind of pain? I know that I don't have any injuries in my heart, but does it feel so painful here?" Yuki asked a pointless question as she knew that there was no way that the Phoenix who was not even a month long could answer her question.

"Chirp! Chirp!" The Phoenix did understand her question, but just as expected he doesn't know the question that his Master asked him. So it can only flap both of its wings and try its best to comfort Yuki in other ways.

"Hahaha… I would like to pet you if I can, but I can't because I don't have my right arm, and on top of that my other hand is messed up and full of blood." Yuki said in a deep sigh, she didn't want to dirty the cute little Phoenix by staining him with blood. But to her shock, he shook his head and flew straight towards her hand ignoring the fact that he was sitting in a pool of blood, what matters to him is the feelings of his Master, and if his actions would make it better, he would do it without hesitation.

"You…" Yuki was speechless, she would never think that he would actually dive straight into her arm so that he can rest in her hand. But even so, his actions didn't irritate her like what should have happened, but it was the opposite, she was happy but she doesn't know the reason why.
