Chapter 112 - "A Soul From Another World
Just because those two had complete opposite powers, Aetheria was a bit 'reluctant' to see Chronos.
One controlled time and the other controlled space.
The two elements were so strong that if they wished to, they could destroy the entire planet!
That's why the elders didn't wish to see the two of them getting closer. Chronos couldn't do anything but just watch Aetheria getting further away from him.
This mission to help Ainsley required him to ask for Aetheria's help. He was naturally excited to do that, but what if the lady rejected his plea?
Chronos twisted his tiny thumbs. He didn't wish to get rejected. His heart was frail. He was still a teenager at heart.
"Fin, can you change your request? It's not that I can't help you, but to contact Aetheria...I…" Chronos mumbled with a dark face.
He wanted to meet Aetheria so badly that he didn't mind offending the fairy elders. But to face her blatant rejection…
Seeing his best friend was in a pinch, Finley laughed bitterly.
"I know it's hard for you to ask for Therry's help, but can you please try?" Finley mentioned Aetheria's nickname so casually, inciting Chronos's jealousy.
"Describe the situation and tell her I will pay her the price for asking her help." Finley didn't mind paying prices to help Ainsley.
The moment Ainsley contracted a sacred guardian, her path would be smoother. In the future, she wouldn't need his help to acquire the other two guardians.
It's not like he intended to give this help for free, anyway. He also wished to get something from Ainsley.
"How is it, Nos? I can give you all that you want. Or maybe should I ask Athe instead? If you're too shy…"
"Okay, go ahead. You invite Aetheria to help you right here, right now. If she agrees, I'll ask you to pay the price for her help and my help." Chronos didn't reject Finley's offers.
It's better to let the boy handle this matter.
"Mm, alright. The price is like the usual? My lifespan?" Finley looked down at his hand, and with a wave of his palm, a silver ring emerged on his ring finger.
It was a communication device to contact the royal fairies and he had Aetheria's contact number.
"...no. This time, I don't want your lifespan." Chronos looked at the smooth silver ring on Finley's ring finger with a complicated gaze.
"Just...make an arrangement to let me have a date with Aetheria…" Chronos flushed red as he flung his face away from Finley, not wanting to look at his bestie's face.
He knew that Finley was quite close to Aetheria and was the only bridge to let the elders give Aetheria permission to meet him.
Finley was a precious wingman!
"Okay, okay, that's not hard. Therry will not object to that either." Finley smiled confidently. Though he didn't tell Chronos that Aetheria might demand the same payment…
That's right. Those two weren't in an unrequited love! They just misunderstood each other and of course, Finley wouldn't be so kind to resolve the misunderstanding.
Else, how could he contact Aetheria and use Chronos's help to his heart's wishes?
Finley was indeed a devil.
"I'll contact her now." Finley waved his hand and rubbed the silver ring. He sent his thoughts into the ring, mainly asking Aetheria to help him.
He didn't need the fairy to come to this place. The lady could control space from far away. This fairy could just locate Ainsley's soul and help with the transfer process.
Soon, the silver glowed brightly, and a feminine, shy voice of a young girl resounded in Finley's mind.
[Finnie, I can help you with your wish. But you know the price…] The fairy mumbled. Her voice grew even smaller as she spat the last few words.
[A-arrange a date with Chronos. D-don't let him know that it's my request, and please convince the elders…]
Finley couldn't help but broke into an evil grin.
[Of course, I'm close to your elders. I'll help you in exchange for your help.] Finley smirked.
Those two thought that the other party hated them because these two were too prideful. Whenever they met, they would always look hostile.
Only Finley knew the truth from both sides since he somehow became the favourite of royal fairy's elders, thus naturally became close to Aetheria.
As to why the elders liked him…maybe because he's the only human with a striking resemblance to the royal fairy. He's also obedient and had a few powerful abilities to amaze these fairies.
[Rest assured, Therry. I'll drag Chronos to meet you. Ah, right, can you locate Ainsley's soul...she's at…]
Finley described Ainsley's appearance and her aura. The moment he mentioned Ainsley, Aetheria's voice sounded excited.
[Fin, is this your little lover?] Aetheria's voice went up a few octaves. [I thought you're not interested in any girls? Ahhh, Fin, who is this girl? Introduce her to me!]
As someone who required Finley's help to meet Chronos under the pretext of being 'forced to', Aetheria also became Finley's best friend.
Now that her bestie went to such a length to help a human baby...how could she not feel interested?
Finley instantly had a headache coming from Aetheria's excited probings.
[No, she's not. Just check her soul and see if it's suitable to enter Code-C's memories– ] Finley had not finished his words when Aetheria suddenly gasped.
[Eh..? This girl's soul…] Aetheria's voice inside Finley's mind turned solemn. Such an abrupt change alarmed Finley.
[What's wrong? Is it not strong enough to move around? Should I cancel the plan?] Finley grew anxious.
However, Aetheria didn't answer. She just observed Ainsley's soul using her space ability.
This girl's soul...how come it's not something from this world?
