Speranza sat on the ship deck with a delicious orange-mango juice with a kick of dragon fruit.The four girls also sat with her, and a cheerful atmosphere surrounded the girls.
Saya, Yuya, Sakura and Chie chatted amicably with Speranza.
They looked more like old friends than that of a mistress with her slaves.
All dressed like beautiful fairies and pixies.
Saya made the drinks while Yuya played soft melodies with a flute, Sakura and chi talked about what they had seen in the lands as well as costumes.
Like how in the swamplands it was fashionable for girls to wear plants like skirts!
In some other country, the girls would cover from head to toe in mud to fight the insects from biting their skin, and it became fashionable.
They also talked about little they knew about the abyss and its peoples.
But it came to few lines they are ruthless, sinister as well as hazardous.
The matriarchal society was the worse of the lot. Those evil female elves worshiped nothing but power and were very cunning.
They were racial fanatics that believed in their racial supremacy.
Speranza wondered in what kind of environment her beloved had to grown up inside.
That cursed land, where the sun never reached would likely be very dark and gloomy.
No wonder that the abyssal people tried times and time again to reach for the surface lands.
Drinking her juice, she got lost in thought until a certain elf came next to her comfortable sitting down, kissing her temple he gently said.
"Can I know what you girls are talking about so merrily?"
While he spoke to the group, his eyes were on his little wife.
Speranza smiled at him.
"We talked about foreign customs and habits for girls wish to join the conversation a discussion about makeup and dresses?"
The tone she used was mischievously prankful and teasing she knew that with his extra keen hearing ability he needed not to ask what they were talking.
So she "pranked" him a little, after all, she was a bit bored.
How could he not know her teasing and challenge he had heard them talk about their rumoured knowledge of the underworld.
While, most of it seemed accurate, for the most part, some of it appeared faulted. However, he would let her witness it for herself.
He smirked having a playful mood he joined into the "prank."
"Makeup huh? It seems I really should join in, so I know what to get for myself."
He humoured them into walking into it. After all his little wife seemed to enjoy this why not give her satisfaction?
Speranza resisted her urge to roll her eyes at his comment. Like if he would wear makeup.
But if he did, how hilarious it would be, only at the thought of it she burst into an uncontrollable fit of laughter.
Seeing her hold on to her cramping stomach as she laughed uncontrollably he lift one eyebrow.
"I wonder what wife finds so funny?"
He smiled and leaned his self next to her. How about wife tell, me what is so hilarious?"
He knowingly teased his cute little love.
She glanced at him before erupting again!
This time he wrapped his arms around her and spoke to her ear.
"Now I am truly curious on what is so funny on my face that my sweet wife that it makes my wife roar into laughter"
He patted her upper arms until she finally calmed her bouts of laughter.
"I was thinking on how you would look all dolled up with red blood lips black eyeliners. And I found it hilarious."
She said in an out of breath speech.
"Oh" I see wife finds it fun to make fun of her poor little husband huh?"
Breathing in and out slowly to calm her pounding heart as she laid slightly limp in his arms, finally relaxing she sighed.
Pressing her head on his chest, she closed her eyes.
Lifting her chin, using a sole finger gently, he gazed at her soft, delicate features.
"You should get some rest do not overreach yourself, after all, you need plenty of rest while it is still possible.
Then his gaze swept over the girls that had gone mute quiet.
"You girls better take good care of her. Do not let her exert herself."
Looking at Sakura, he said. "Get a sunshade umbrella for her to rest under it."
Nodding the girl then wordlessly left the group to fetch the required item.
Saya and Chie used full feathered fans to fan the now sleeping Speranza.
A good hour pa.s.sed until the vigil screamed Sea Merge ahead!
Yuya got up to see what he was screaming about but what she saw blew her mind!
The sea water clashed and did not mix but has those ma.s.sive bodies of water converged together waves of two to three meters formed.
She needed to wake her mistress so she could prepare for their first storm.
