《Magic Monsters Money》Intermission: Inside the Second Carriage

Advertisement

After Key gave instructions, everyone started moving. At that moment, Ghena, Lapis, and Jane with Marie went to the second carriage per instruction.

A few moments later, everyone was waiting for further instructions from Key as the caravan started moving. During that time, Ghena, Lapis, and Jane were inside the carriage while looking after the sleeping Marie.

It was very quiet, not because there’s nothing to do nor talk about, but because of the new slave, Lapis. She’s been staring at Jane for a long time since the time they entered the carriage.

Currently, Jane and Ghena are seated side by side while Lapis is on their opposite side. And for about half an hour, both Jane and Ghena are having a problematic situation.

[WHY DOESN’T SHE TALK?!]

Both of their thoughts are screaming out loud from their expressions. Since a while ago, no one dared to talk because of the air Lapis is making. It’s a very awkward air that negates all possibility to let anyone talk. And because of that, Ghena and Jane are too scared to do so. Not to mention, they can even barely breathe.

On the other hand, the carriage moved smoothly on the paved road. The sound of the wooden wheel running above the ground was the only sound inside the carriage. Also, the sound of the leaves clapping on nearby trees was making the awkward vibe inside the carriage worsen.

Lapis’ emotionless stare is giving them a weird sense of pressure that pushes their breath back down their lungs. Ghena and Jane held each of their free hands while shaking unconsciously. While in the opposite side, Lapis is just sitting silently with both of her hands on her knees.

No one dared to speak, not until a certain sound came out that startled everyone besides Lapis and the sleeping Marie.

*Grumble*

A sound that symbolizes hunger roared inside the carriage.

It made Ghena and Jane look at each other. After confirming that it didn’t came from either of them, both switched their gaze towards Lapis that didn’t show any signs of talking nor moving.

Since Jane has Marie on her lap sleeping, it was impossible for her to suddenly stand up. Seeing that situation, Ghena stood up in her stead and talked to Lapis.

“Uhm… Lapis was it? Are you perhaps, hungry?”

And without saying anything, Lapis nodded lightly to her question.

“You haven’t anything yet for a while now have you?”

*shakes head*

Since Lapis responded expressionlessly but energetically, Ghena assumed it that this was her way of communicating normally to other people.

Just what was Key thinking when she bought her? Were the thoughts running through Ghena’s mind.

After that, Ghena then walked to one of the crates that contain food. There, she took out a brown bread and poured milk from the jug beside it.

“Please, eat it.”

When she handed over the brown bread to Lapis, Lapis didn’t receive it and tilted her head while looking at Ghena. Because of that, Ghena herself imitated Lapis and tilted her head.

“She’s probably thinking why you took it without any consent from Sir Key.”

Jane let out her thoughts on the confused Ghena. After that, Ghena couldn’t help but smile at Lapis.

“Don’t worry. Your master is a nice person. He wouldn’t get angry over something like a piece of bread.”

Ghena shook her hand that is holding the Bread as if saying that Lapis should take it. And of course, Lapis couldn’t reject such good will and received the bread.

When she started nibbling unto the bread, for some reason, Ghena and Jane can imagine Lapis having cat ears. Because of her soundless actions and emotionless responses and if you add the way she nibbles the bread, anyone would without a doubt see Lapis as a cat.

“Cute…”

I wasn’t known who muttered that word. But since both Ghena and Jane’s attention are at Lapis, they probably have the same thought.
