485 Picnic at the Bulian hills.
After hugging Blake to her heart’s content, Tessie finally let Blake go and walked over to Camilla with her hands open.
“How have you been?” Tessie asked with a brimming smile as she hugged Camilla.
“Stressed out by the development of the city but I am okay.” Camilla said. “What about you?”
“Life has been quite boring for me, but I have no complaints.” Tessie said with smile that could light up the room.
“Nice house you’ve got here.” Tessie said to Blake as she began to move past the sliding double glass doors and into the kitchen.
Sure enough, Blake began another home tour which ended in the master bedroom, in front of the full glass window.
“The view is magnificent; I wish I could have one in my room.” Tessie said as she appreciated the view.
“With so many people complimenting my house, it is safe to say that Earth’s architectural designs would be popular here. This is an opportunity for another business idea.” Blake thought.
He had learned so far that nobles always made use of any chance they had to display their wealth and put others in their place.
.....
So once again, he could use this to his advantage and begin making custom renovations and redesign for them.
‘Nah.’ Blake quickly discarded the idea when he imagined something unexpected delaying a mission, and he ended up missing his appointment with a client.
His life in the ash corps, coupled with managing the affairs of his company, didn’t leave him with much time to do the things he usually did in school. So, adding renovations and architectural customizations to his to-do list was not possible at all.
‘If I didn’t have a mission, then I wouldn’t have hesitated to indulge in all types of business ventures, but I don’t belong in this world.’ Blake thought.
“What’s the plan for today?” Blake asked as he sat on the sofa. He didn’t feel comfortable staying idle, especially when he had a thousand things he could be doing.
“The plan is to have a picnic at the Bulian hills. Also, we brought food and drinks from our family kitchens, so you don’t have to spend.” Camilla said causing Blake to smile.
‘The best combination, food and no bills!’ Blake thought with a brimming smile.
“Alright, let’s start heading out.” Blake said as he stood up from the sofa.
“Hold your horses, Tessie just arrived. Besides it’s too early for a picnic, we have till waiting till noon. ” Camilla said causing Blake to let out a low grunt.
After hours of chatting or torture in Blake’s words, the girls decided it was time to get going.
They boarded a carriage that transported them out of the city, and then from there they began making their way to the Bulian hills on foot.
“In situations like this, having a personal carriage isn’t a bad idea.” Tessie said as the thought of walking and killing beasts just for a picnic made her tired already.
“It would have been perfect if not that adding a carriage to the lists of things to be protected puts the owner at a disadvantage.” Camilla said.
“True.” Tessie said in realization.
“No need for a personal carriage with them around.” Blake brought out Ebony and Ivory from his dimensional pocket.
With the presence of Ebony and Ivory in their Haiti and Skoll form, not even king rank beasts would want to attack them.
“Are we riding them?!” Tessie asked in an excited tone.
“Yes, but both of you would be on Ivory. Ebony isn’t a fan of people.” Blake said causing Ebony to furrow its brows and grunt.
“He reminds me of someone.” Camilla burst out in laughter causing Blake to furrow his brows, forming a perfect resemblance between the beast and its master.
With 3 of them holding tight to the wolves, they quickly began weaving through the trees at astonishing speed.
In less than 15 minutes they were already in the Bulian hills, but it was only because they had reduced their speed to make sure their riders didn’t fall off.
The only problem now was selecting a hill for the picnic. The girls wanted to stay on top of a high hill for a very nice view, but the tallest hills were at the deeper parts of the Bulian hills which were more dangerous.
“Moving any deeper would turn the picnic into warfare.” Blake alongside Ebony and Ivory were annoyed by the indecision of the girls.”
Although Ebony and Ivory could handle most king rank beasts, it didn’t mean Blake would want to stress them, and the situation could get out of hand if multiple or more beasts were to appear.
Besides, the deeper they went into the Bulian hills, the higher the chances of meeting an emperor rank beast, and Ebony and Ivory were no match for that.
“Alright.” The girls finally a hill which Ebony and Ivory carried them to.
They spread the picnic blanket before taking out the food baskets from their dimensional amulets, while Ebony and Ivory remained in their Haiti and Skoll form as they stood watch.
“The atmosphere is so peaceful.” Camilla let out a long sigh as her nerves relaxed and her mind was free from all burdens.
“I still wonder how you do it?” Camilla said to Blake.
“Do what?”
“You do basically twice of everything I do, but you never get tired or need to relax.” Camilla said.
“Yeah, even back in school, not only were you completing adventurer commissions, but you were still ahead of the class.”
“The crazy part was that you maintained the same energy for 3 years without showing any weakness or breaking down. You act as if you have only 5 years to live.” Tessie said.
“Well, it’s because I feel empty whenever I am idle. I always have this feeling that I am not doing enough, and when I don’t accomplish anything I feel depressed.” Blake said shocking Camilla and Tessie.
