Chapter 237 - Return To Ishgar {15} Journey Towards The Council [4] (1/2)
”M-Mister, Elfman and I would like to ride them.” Lisanna, Elfman and Amell stood outside the house with the panthers wrestling with each other close by. Lisanna, however, had been working up the courage to ask Amell this favour for an entire hour. She stood and pointed at the panthers while asking him if she could ride them since she didn't know what they were called.
”You don't like walking?”
”I do! But they are so soft I want to ride them, can I, please?” Lisanna pouted her lips cutely. Her childlike attitude won over Amell's steel-like will, even though he had been around kids most of his life.
”Sure, and it is probably a good idea you three do so. We have quite a long distance to cover today.” Amell whistled over the panthers.
”You guys, these three siblings will ride on your backs so we can travel a little faster.” They nodded and bowed down so they could climb up on their backs.
”Yeah!” Elfman yelled and jumped on excitedly and following close behind him was Lisanna. They were gonna share ride while Mira would get her own. Speaking of the devil, Mirajane came walking out of the house with a completely new outfit on. Elfman and Lisanna also had new clothes on. Amell had travelled to Saint City in the middle of the night and bought new clothes for them, The previous outfits they had were complete rags that covered barely anything, so Amell bought some real clothes for them.
”Looks like I got the right size for all of you, lucky me!” Amell breathed out a sigh. Mira had slightly rose-coloured cheeks. She wanted to thank him for the nice clothes, but she didn't wanna be indebted to him either. She wasn't a fan of either idea.
”Yeah, T-Thanks, I suppose,” Mira quickly walked past him but stopped when she saw her siblings sitting on top of those cat animals. ”What are you two doing?” She questioned with a slight head tilt.
”Mister said it was okay!” Lisanna yelled happily. She sat there and swayed back and forth behind Elfman.
”You three do not have to call me, Mister anymore. If you don't wanna call me Amell, you can just call me an old man. That works too.”
”Okay, old man! I understand!” Elfman yelled with an equal amount of excitement as his sister.
”Little Mira, hop on that panther, they are gonna carry you, so we can travel a little faster.” Amell's second panther walked up to Mira and bowed down. They were quite big animals, and both of them were bigger than Mira and she was the tallest of the siblings.
”No way! I can walk by myself!”
