Chapter 36 The Flying Little Fox
Although Elus was only a little curious about the Clothes of Wind, she didn’t necessarily have to try it out.
However, since her wife said so, how could Lonis leave?
Seizing this rare opportunity, on this rare evening, she naturally had to soar with Elus!
However, after putting on the gear…
“So, so high!”
Standing on the high platform, Lonis felt her legs going weak.
Although the height from the ground was not as high as the single-plank bridge Lonis had crossed in the Underground World, it was precisely because it was clearly visible that it made her feel weak.
Elus didn’t force her and simply suggested:
“Hmm, since Lonis is afraid of heights, then let’s not try it.”
“No, no!!!”
Lonis shook her head, trying her best to appear brave.
She came to Elus’s side and prepared with her.
The Clothes of Wind they wore were almost identical in appearance and structure. The shape of the wings resembled angelic wings, making them look like couple’s outfits.
…
“If you two young ladies are beginners, remember not to set the speed to the highest. You don’t need to worry about safety. The Clothes of Wind are all insured. If they detect a height that is too low, the Wind Crystals will automatically activate.”
“Mhm, mhm…”
“Well then, I wish you both a pleasant experience… Who will go first?”
“I, I’ll go first.”
…
Lonis nervously raised her hand, and the Clothes of Wind swayed with her movement… Although it wasn’t bad, when paired with her fox ears and tail, it gave off a strange feeling.
It was like…
“Mom, look at the rooftop over there, there’s a flying fox!”
“That’s not a flying fox. It’s another girl trying to soar.”
“Oh…?”
…
(There are just too many small plugins on me?)
Shaking her fox ears, Lonis sighed helplessly.
Fortunately, the strange little gadgets inside her clothes didn’t activate, otherwise she would have truly become a “technologically modified fox” and appeared too strange.
(Alright, let’s take off like this… to my wife Elus, let me show her my bravery at this moment~~)
Making up her mind, Lonis leaped off the platform.
But then…
“Wuwuwu, why aren’t I flying!!!!”
Lonis felt as if she were a diver, falling straight towards the ground.
“Idiot little fox, your tail is tangled with your wings, shake your tail quickly!”
“Huh… tail?”
“That’s right, loosen your tail quickly!”
…
Seeing Lonis’s clumsy appearance in the air, Elus was furious.
Always so foolish, only knowing how to bluff.
She was clearly scared, yet she insisted on being the first to fly out.
So…
(Hmph, who told this little fox to be my wife? Since that’s the case, then I’ll indulge her a little.)
Elus also leaped off the platform, but compared to the clumsy little fox, the black-haired girl’s movements were much more coordinated.
Like an elegant angel, Elus could always find a way to maintain her balance. The airflow at high altitude was no hindrance at all. Instead, it was like a dancing partner, allowing the girl’s posture to stretch freely in the air.
…
“Wuwu, Elus is so amazing…”
Seeing how amazing her wife was, Lonis immediately felt the stark contrast… Compared to the princess of the Snow Kingdom, she was simply a bumpkin.
She couldn’t grasp the knack at all. If it weren’t for the Clothes of Wind having self-protecting Wind Crystals, she would have likely fallen to the ground and become a pile of fox sauce.
So…
“No, no, I can’t give up!!!!”
Lonis gritted her teeth, trying to flap her wings to increase her altitude.
But her movements were too stiff, or rather… when she was shaping her body back then, Lonis had put all her attribute points into sensitivity and beauty, and agility was almost not added at all.
So now…
“Ugh, I didn’t fly up. I’ve, I’ve hit the lowest point again!”
“Sigh, little fox is such a little idiot, isn’t she? Don’t move, I’ll help you.”
“No! I can do it!”
“Huh?”
“Elus, watch closely, I can definitely fly up by myself.”
“…”
Hearing Lonis’s weak and stubborn words, Elus was utterly helpless.
It seemed that being a soft girl wasn’t a good thing either, because it made Lonis always want to show off and constantly try to be strong.
(Sigh, it looks like I’ll have to go back to my old attitude after today is over, right?)
As Elus was thinking this…
Something unexpected happened.
Because Lonis couldn’t fly no matter how she flapped her wings, in the end, she simply waved her arms and legs around, using them all.
The silver-haired little fox flailed her limbs like a swimming puppy, looking extremely disheveled.
But don’t forget, Lonis had a tail at the back of her tail, right?
Her tail spun continuously, and soon, like a helicopter…
She floated up directly.
[=640,640][/]
“This, this can work too…”
Elus was stunned in surprise.
“I’m flying, I’m flying!!”
Seeing her altitude gradually increasing, Lonis couldn’t have been happier!
Soaring at this altitude, the people below looked like ants, appearing extremely tiny.
Facing the evening wind, she could see the city lights coming on… bustling with activity, the setting sun was sinking into the sea, and the vast night was just beginning to unfurl.
She could freely go wherever she wanted against the wind, no longer rolling around in the air like she was just now.
“Elus, I told you I could do it~~”
Lonis flew to the black-haired girl’s side and soared with her.
Under the cover of the night, Lonis could see the girl’s flawless profile and her slightly surprised, yet feigning composure, eyes.
“Hmph, I’ll consider you to have some skill.”
“Hehe~”
“But, can you keep up with my pace?”
“Huh?”
“Idiot little fox, I’m going to accelerate now… Well, if you can catch up, I’ll praise you then.”
“Wuwu!!!”
Seeing Elus fly straight away, Lonis was in a panic… After all, it was quite discouraging for the wife she had just caught up to to slip away like that.
But Lonis?
She had a strength…
That was, no matter how mysterious or incomprehensible Elus was, she could always understand her!
Even if she couldn’t fully understand her emotionally, she could accompany her by her side and comfort her wife’s soul with her body…
So…
“Wife Elus, don’t run… you can’t run away!”
“Why can’t I run away? Little fox, you’re simply too slow?”
“Not slow at all, watch me go to full power, even using my fox ears!”
“Huh… how can that be effective?!”
Elus’s eyes widened in astonishment because with the twitching of her fox ears, Lonis’s speed actually increased a lot!
In just a moment, she…
“Haha, I caught up~~~ Elus, little soft girl, surrender quickly and let me capture you!”
“You…”
“I caught my wife!”
Lonis thus happily hugged Elus’s body.
“Hmph, who is your wife? You’re too slow.”
“Wuwu, she slipped away again… But I won’t give up!”
The two girls thus happily teased and chased each other in the darkening sky~
