      MTFBMP Chapter 50

      MTFBMP Chapter 50 Cover
      by Nikiniks “Jade?”   It wasn’t the body lying on the floor, but the ghost bird leaning on my hand that blinked its eyes.    After taking a few deep breaths and puffing up its body, it spread its wings wide and gave a strong flap.   The ghost bird, now fully grown, looked at me and soon brushed its beak against my cheek.   A name floated above its head. It was Jade’s name.   “Jade. From now on, this ship is going to completely collapse. Take Dion…

      by Nikiniks “Adele!”   The massive arrow, loaded but not yet fired, had finally pierced Adele's wing. The impact caused his body to tilt toward the side where the arrow had struck.   “Adele, are you okay?”   I tried to check on him and look behind his back, but Adele immediately shielded me with his wing.    Despite being attacked, his face remained calm, as if he felt no pain.   “I’m fine. Don’t show yourself to the enemy.”   As he…

      MTFBMP Chapter 48 Cover
      by Nikiniks A familiar blue glow surrounded the ghost bird. The ghost bird hovered around me, sparking once in a while, growing a little larger each time.   “It's growing.”   Already, as I stood at the door of the basement prison, people were being attacked, and the bird was growing.   A bitter feeling rose in my stomach.   “I think it's because of me.”   If only I had realized it sooner. No one would have gotten hurt, and I could have saved them…

      MTFBMP Chapter 45 Cover
      by Nikiniks   As much as I wanted to call his name right then and there, I forced myself to hold back.   — We are linked by souls, contracted by name. Call my name if you must.   There was a strange feeling, as if Adele had my back and was supporting me.   — If you call me, I will come.   Hearing Adele's voice was surprisingly calming.   It was probably no big deal that these barrels were stacked here, as Jade had said, but somehow I couldn't help but…

      MTFBMP Chapter 44 Cover
      by Nikiniks “You may recall that this ship had a separate owner, and this is a memento from his wife.”   What do you mean, why kill Iris, who's still alive and well?   Unable to follow the topic, I could barely speak, with a million question marks hovering over my head.   “When you're dressed, I'll reintroduce you to the crew, and we'll drop you off at Pirate Island.”   “What? You said you weren't making a stop, did you change your mind?”   “No, I…

      MTFBMP Chapter 42 Cover
      by Nikiniks   'Next on the list of people I care about is...'   It would have been reassuring to see Dion and Jade's names on the list, but alas, their defenses were too high.   And Dion, despite spending every morning together, hardly ever got the chance.   Bam, bam, bam—   As I stomped my foot, I thought of Dion.   I've been having breakfast with Dion since I got on the boat. Dion preferred to write down the information as I gave it to…

      MTFBMP Chapter 41 Cover
      by Nikiniks There weren't a lot of beasts in the basement prison.    Roughly five. Most of them were flying beasts, and there was one common amphibious beast.   With that many, one might be able to forgive a little grumbling now and then.    But as I followed Adele's gaze..., I realized that it might include the people on the ship, and that terrified me.   'I worked in the kitchen on purpose so I could familiarize myself with all the faces.'    As far as meals…

      by Nikiniks Not wanting to overdo it when the wings weren't even healed.   “We'll save all that for when Adele is better.”   At the sight of the bandages, peeking through the feathers, I told him.   Patting him. After giving him one last pat and tidying up his feathers, I decided to drop the subject.   “Well, since you're up, let's call it a day.”   At any other time, it would have been much harder to get out of his embrace, but the timing was right-until,…

      MTFBMP Chapter 4 Cover
      by Nikiniks My head immediately turned toward the inn.   “Antheia, what, you're not entering? Are you leaving without seeing your grandfather?”   “Not now!”   There was much to be done right now.   Entering the inn through the back door by the kitchen, I headed straight for the storeroom and pulled out all the parchments. I could see the blazing flames of the fire pits in front of me. Without hesitation, I threw the parchments into…

      MTFBMP Chapter 39 Cover
      by Nikiniks “…”   “And why is this a wound from Adele?”   It was a scar from being pushed against a wall the day we first kissed in contract.   Not that the other animals' cages were comfortable, but Adele's was unusually bad.    There were no walls for Adele to run to and fro as a flying beast. In fact, the space itself was a weapon.   And Adele knew it, so from that day forward, he never pushed me against a wall.    No wonder Adele never…
