NovelEnglish48 Crazy
As Henry approached Luna's house, he couldn't help but shake his head in disbelief. It seemed like every time he visited her, he was met with the aftermath of some kind of explosion or worse. This time, it wasn't different. The outside of the house was a mess, with wood debris strewn everywhere and half of the house being held up by a single pillar. It looked like a warzone straight out of a comic book.
"It's worse than I thought." – Henry sighed and dismounted the Snowfire Horse.
He gave it a reassuring pat and cautiously approached the door, half-expecting it to explode on him at any moment, fearing for his safety. The young king closed his eyes and took a deep breath, counting to ten in his head before turning the doorknob. However, as soon as he forced it down, the door fell off the hinges with a loud crash.
Henry awkwardly held his hand in the same position, waiting for Luna's loud outburst to reach his ears, but it never came. In fact, he had never seen the confident and rude golden-haired girl act like that. She was always singing about her superiority and constantly demanding more Torch Tree's seeds with a crazy look in her eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLuna was silently watching the vials on her desk in anger and frustration, while her body was covered in dust and her golden hair had wooden shards all over it, concealing her perfect beauty. She had worked on countless experiments, but this one was the hardest and most frustrating of all.
"I see you've redecorated again. Is this the new minimalist look?" – Henry joked, trying to lighten the mood as looked around.
The once neat and organized space was now in shambles, with various instruments and tools scattered all over the place. The shelves were overturned, and books and parchments were scattered everywhere, some torn and charred. The only untouched place in the whole room was Luna's working desk, which she managed to protect with the Ice Wall.
Luna shot him a glare that could have melted the ice in an instant, making Henry immediately shut up – "I thought that I had managed to partially stabilize the seed. However, it went off as soon as it touched the ground."
"That's fine, I exp-" – Henry was about to console his sole asset in the alchemy field when he stopped – "What did you say?"
Henry quickly grabbed a chair from the cluttered floor and pulled it closer to Luna. His intense gaze resembled that of a mad scientist, ready to extract every bit of information from his subject's mind, even if he had to dissect him.
"Why are you making me repeat myself?" – Luna angrily inquired, powerfully hitting the table – "I really hate this…are you making fun of me?"
Henry desperately waved his hands, trying to ward off her anger and explain himself – "Of course not, my beautiful and gentle Luna"
Henry swallowed hard at his own words, his eyes looking at the hand imprint left on the wooden table. – "But did you just say that they exploded only when they touched the ground?"
Seeing that the young man in front of her was really interested and not making fun of her, Luna dropped her hand in frustration as she explained- "Yes, I managed to stabilize it to certain temperatures, but as soon as it touched the ground, it exploded. It was as if the Mana was running rapidly towards the ground, trying to escape."
The more Henry listened; the more beautiful Luna seemed in his eyes. She was a really beautiful asset. She was the answer to solve this war and minimize his losses.
"Then, how much time do you need to fabricate this grena- this exploding seeds?" – Henry asked, almost jumping in happiness, and kissing the girl in front of him. However, he didn't dare to ruin their relationship.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLuna pondered deeply about the question, calculating the most effective way to improve the production of the item before opening her mouth – "It should take one to two days, but it depends on the seed's quality and age"
"That's brilliant!" – Henry yelled and got up from his chair. – "I will ask the masons to fix your house and send more quality seeds. This king will surely help you on your journey of knowledge and development, leave it to me!"
"Wait!" – Luna tried to reach her hands towards the king, but it was too late.
She could only see the mad guy dash towards his horse and wave her goodbye, while telling her to wait for the people coming over.
"Crazy." – Luna shuddered.
Yooo! I am back!
So, I didn't have enough time to edit this chapter and I will probably do it during the weekend as I got no time in my hands to do it. Because of that, the quality will probably decrease a little (or a lot).
And, sorry for the delay! Don't forget to leave your vote!
