BXBX NOVEL Chapter 637 Going Their Separate Ways
‘Oh, now this is interesting.’
Scrawling his finger along Jaela’s scythe Marcus was busily taking in everything he could about it.
It was an expertly forged weapon, and he was gaining insights into its making and powers every minute he looked over it.
‘Wow, whoever made this was a genius. I never even thought to combine formations like this.’
With his eyes glued onto Jaela’s scythe Marcus intently examined the blade and then handle all the way down, noticing all of the intricately etched formations.
Unfortunately, time was not on his side, and after the hour had passed, he felt a hand on his shoulder. He then looked up to see Jaela holding her other hand out to take her weapon back.
Marcus nearly recoiled at this and wanted to yank back and hold onto her scythe, but he knew that he could not keep it any longer.
‘I should have tried asking for more time to look it over. But I did not want her to reject my request.’ Marcus thought as he begrudgingly handed the scythe back over to its rightful owner..
“Thank you for allowing me to look at your prized weapon. It was very enlightening, and I believe that it will help me in creating my next new scythe in the future.” Marcus said, trying to keep up a cordial façade as he stared intently at Jaela’s scythe.
“Oh, and if you ever need any maintenance or repairs on it feel free to bring it to me. I would be more than happy to fix it for a very discounted rate for a friend.” He added.
Sighing Jaela agreed to bring her scythe to Marcus should she ever need it repaired, though she doubted that would ever happen with how well-crafted her weapon was.
“Now since I indulged you this time, next time you are going to tell me everything I want to know about that game I enjoy.” Jaela said with a smirk.
After that she had Boreas warp her out of the castle so that she could get back to repairing the Great Gome Woods.
“I should be getting back as well. I imagine that I will have a lot of explaining and work to do when I return to Tralenstein.” Lyra said as she gestured towards Boreas when he reappeared.
“Yes, I suppose that since I brought you here, I should take you back. If that is not a problem.” He said understanding what Lyra wanted.
Naturally she accepted his help as it would have taken her significantly longer to return on her own, since she could not fly at anywhere near the speed that Boreas could.
In an instant the two of them were gone leaving Marcus all on his own in a completely enclosed room that could only be accessed by those that could freely warp around the castle.
‘Now what?’ Marcus thought as he looked around at the empty room. ‘Do I just stay put until someone comes to get me, or do I try to find my way by phasing through the walls?
Pondering this for a few minutes, he eventually decided to not do anything rash and just wait.
The last thing he needed to do was accidently pass into someone like the king’s room and set off some sort of alarm.
Luckily it was not long until Boreas returned from taking Lyra back to Tralenstein.
“Now I guess you will want to return to your room, but I am not exactly sure where that is since Gwyn brought you here.” Boreas said with a pondering expression.
“If you would just drop me off within the wing of the castle where the rooms for royalty are, that would be fine. I am sure you heard that I was given the status of an honorary prince, so I have a room there.
Of course, Marcus actually had no intention of heading to his own room and instead was going to stop in and meet with Mrazivý as he said he would.
And while he was trying to hide his true intentions, Boreas seemed to pick up on it and gave Marcus a wry smile.
“Sure, I will drop you off right in front of Mrazivý’s door.” He said as he moved over to Marcus.
Another second later he found himself standing in front of his fiancé’s door with Boreas next to him with a big grin on his face.
“Now I would love to be introduced to my descendant, but I suppose now is not a good time.” Boreas said as he moved his eyebrows up and down in a suggestive motion.
Marcus just scoffed at this since he knew Boreas was messing with him.
“After that I may never let you meet her.” Marcus said with a glare.
“Okay I get it. I will leave you alone now.” Boreas said as he put his hands up in surrender.
He then disappeared in a puff of mist likely going to wherever Gwyneira currently was.
Sighing Marcus reached out to Mrazivý with telepathy and contacted her in order to tell her he had arrived outside her door.
A few moments later her personal attendant opened the door with a grin just as wide as Boreas’ and let Marcus inside since she already knew about his relationship with her mistress.
“Thank you, Aisha, I hope that I did not wake Mrazivý up with my sudden arrival.” Marcus said.
“Oh no, her highness did not even attempt to go to sleep last night as she waited for your arrival. And while I normally would not have approved of her staying up like so, I know that she can stay awake for over a weak since she evolved.” Aisha said with a giggle.
Once she had finished greeting Marcus, she led him inside Mrazivý’ suit, and she was sitting on the couch in her living area reading through a number of documents.
Though when she saw him arrive, she looked up and smile at him before putting the documents down.
“That certainly took a while. You four were talking for nearly twenty hours.” Mrazivý said as she got up and walked over towards Marcus.
“I will go and prepare some tea and snacks.” Aisha said, before hurriedly left the room.
As soon as she was gone Mrazivý’s wrapped her arms around Marcus and moved in to give him a kiss which he naturally accepted.
When Mrazivý was satisfied she pulled back from Marcus who was looking down at her in a bit of a daze not having expected her to come at him so passionately.
“I am truly glad that you are back.” Mrazivý said.
While they had already met with each other after the battle with the Doomsday Worm, Marcus had been in his guise as Irene for most of the time, so for Mrazivý it was not like she was able to truly be with him.
“Now since we have some time, I have been compiling a few things together for our engagement party that is coming up that we need to decide on.” Mrazivý said as she led Marcus over to the documents she had been reading.
“Now what kind of flowers do you think we should have present?”
