Chapter 132 : Do me next.
The table was lively despite the fact that it was far from full. Liam kept glaring at Kancor from across the table as he sat next to Axis. Nichole sighed as she pulled at his sleeve, " Are you even listening Brother Li "?
Liam sighed as he nodded [ What's gotten into me lately? ] " So sorry Nicky, do come again ". Nichole pouted, " Not fair ". Liam laughed, " Well, have you thought of what you want your mana stone to be "?
Nichole made jazz hands that matched the energy of her excitement, " It should just look really pretty, like Sister Reli's hairpin or that earring you always wear ". Liam smliled, touching it " You know, sometimes I forget it's there ".
Nichole tilted her head to the side, " Really, how "? Liam rubbed his chin with a smile, " I've never taken it off, it's basically a part of me ". Nichole blinked a few times, obviously surprised then smiled " That's amazing ".
She put a hand to her chest, " When Sister Qidu makes mine, I'll never ever ever take it off just like you ". Liam nodded, " That sounds nice. But if you're gonna have it on forever, make sure it's extra pretty ".
The table cloth was hit lightly by Jewlica but still attention catching as she held out her mana stone to Liam, " Look what Sister Qidu made me "! It seemed to be a pair of matching bracelets made of poppies.
Nectar smiled, putting Jewlica back in her lap " And you can wear it as earrings when you're old enough ". Jewlica stuck out her tongue as she put it to her ears and frowned when it didn't stick, " It doesn't work ".
Nectar smiled, " I'll show you how silly ". Gus raised up his hand as he held out his mana stone with the other hand, " Do me next ". Nectar took the stone from him and turned it over in her hand, " What would you like me to make for you "?
Gus rocked in Kancor's lap, " I'm not sure, what kind of jewelry will you make me "? Nectar shrugged her shoulders, " Would you like a pendant you can clip to anything ". Gus smiled, " Whatever you decide, it should just be super shiny. Is that possible "?
Nectar nodded and again engulfed it in the water, Luscious had a slight smile as he watched Nectar cut into the stone, he sat next to Bonsi and everyone was so focused on what Nectar was doing, they didn't notice the tender look on his face.
At first, the water was clear but then the cutting began and slowly turned a greenish black color. When she was done, she somehow managed to separate the dirt from the water and threw it out into the grass. She smirked at August, " Now, were gonna make it shiny ".
August nodded in agreement and held out his hand, " And super smooth too ". Nectar nodded and somehow began doing just that. When she was done, it seemed as smooth as marble and some parts had lost color, making it even prettier as the green color turned white in patches.
Mario had been standing next to Nectar the whole time, " I didn't realize powers could be used for more than just fighting ". Nectar smiled, collecting his mana stone, " Their your powers to discover and your imagination to use to find out how ". Mario nodded, " Okay Sister Qidu, I want mine to have weapons. Whatever you decide ".
Nectar nodded and again engulfed it in water. The cutting sequence began again and Mario watched it slice and somehow drill into the stone. Looking up at Nectar who had a peaceful expression on her face, Mario nearly thought she looked sad.
Nectar suddenly opened her eyes and smiled at him, " I hope you like it though. It seemed like two bows that had a shield with an R on it. There were arrow heads protruding out of it.
Mario titled his head to the side, " It's truly amazing Sister Qidu but how am I supposed to wear it. You know how careless I can be ". Nectar smiled, " Hold out your arm ". Mario compiled and Nectar rolled up the wine sleeve of his shirt easily.
She placed it on it and they all gasped in surprise as links similar to those on Lucy's hand appeared and formed a complete arm brace after looking like arrows that found their way back to their bows. Both Jewlica and Archie reacted with excitement as they hit the table, " That's amazing ".
Mario tapped it lightly, as if expecting it to suddenly break and looked up at Nectar, the surprise on his face now gone. " This is spectacular and all, but can we still use it as a communication device "?
Nicole and June groaned, Jewlica shook her head and Gus knocked his head. Mario refused to be made public enemy for an obviously important question and pointed accusing fingers everywhere, " It's not my fault you didn't think that far ".
The adults laughed and Nicole held out her stone as well, " My turn. Do me! Do me "! Nectar was about to reach out for it when someone touched her shoulder. Her mood visibly became worse as he leaned in closer to her cheek, " Maybe after, lunch's already here ".
