Ch. 148

( Yuto Pov )

" Hahahahaha!!!! Your face was priceless!!" I laughed as I tried walking away.

Atalanta held a picture I drew, which was her spaced out when she ate my pie.

" Y....Yo...You damn bastard!!" She yelled.

" Haha! You looked like you understood the meaning of life. Wait, no, you probably almost acended into God hood. Hahahaha!!....."

* Riiiip *

She tore the paper and tossed it into the ground, and stomped on it.

" Hmph." She started walking away.

" Jokes on you, I still have a copy." I said as I took out another.

Atalanta hurriedly turned around and tried to grab it only for me to dodge.

" Sigh, too slow! You thought you were safe, huh?" I said as I dodged her again.

" I think this is one of my most favorite drawings." I said as I put the picture into the inventory.

" Give me the drawing." She demanded.

" Nah, I'll probably be posting it on a wall." I smirked.

Atalanta could do nothing but give me a death glare.

" Glare all you want. It is my victory."

I walked down the road, and Atalanta followed.

" So where do you think this evil dragon is?" I asked Atalanta.

A few seconds passed, and I received no answer.

I looked back to see Atalanta silent.

" Are...are you giving me the silent treatment right now?"

" Hmph. No. " She turned her head away.

I just deadpanned.

" It ain't really a silent treatment if you responded just now." I spoke.

Atalanta kept silent.

A few seconds later, I grabbed a branch and started poking Atalanta with it.

* Poke Poke *

I poker Atalantas cheek.

" Grrr." Atalanta growled.

* Poke Poke *

" Oh, look! A cool stick!" I said as I grabbed a large stick.

" I shall name it, Stick, the harbringer of chaos." I held up the stick like it was the Holy grail.

Atalantas' eyes twitched.

I started adding runes.

* Scribble scribble *

Atalantas' face started twitching.

Golden runes appeared on Stick.

" We are not bringing that to the fight!" She yelled but soon realized that she spoke.

I gave off a smug aura as I held onto Stick.

Atalanta grinds her teeth as she glares at me.

I gave off a smug smile and held up two fingers.

" I won.....again."

But just before I could celebrate, Atalanta walked up to me and grabbed a stick, and she broke with her knee.

* Snap *

She threw the stick on the ground.

* Thud *

" Stiiiiiiiiccccccccckkkkkkk!!!" I cried out as I held the broken stick.

" You monster!" I yelled as Atalanta rolled her eyes and walked away.

" Stop fooling around. We need to find this dragon." She spoke.

" Sigh, alright, alright, but that was a cool stick." I said as I got up.

I followed behind Atalanta.

/// Bringing you Chibi Yuto in a cat costume///

* Thud *

" Ugh! I'm really arguing to hate walking." I spoke as I sat down on a nearby rock by the river.

" Can't you just teleport us?" Atalanta asked as she filled her water canteen.

" Eh, too lazy." I shrugged.

Atalanta just glared at me.

" Beside the journey would end too fast. Sometimes, you just need to enjoy it. " I said.

" Sigh, I guess you're right....Kya!!?"

* Splash! *

" Hehe." I chuckled as I kicked Atalanta into the river.

* Splash *

She resurfaced soaking wet as she gave me a deadly glare.

I just looked down and responded with a smirk.

" Hey wai....!!!"

* Splash! *

Atalanta grabbed my legs and pulled me into the river.

I resurfaced as I looked at Atalanta, who was already out of the river.

Atalanta looked back with a smirk.

" Are you looking for a fight? Just get in here." I spoke.

" No. I know you'll win." She said as she tuned around and started walking away.

" Sigh."

I got out as I followed after her.

* Squish Squish *

We were both walking, still soaked with water.

" Not gonna lie. This feels nice." I spoke as I swung my arm, throwing some excess water at Atalanta.

" Sigh." She sighed.

" Alright, I'll stop." I surrendered.

" Thank you." She said as she looked at me.

" For now." I said.

Atalanta just deadpanned.
