Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 179 Yet



Krune turned to Feifei and said that he had to talk with Lofa first. Feifei, of course, narrowed her eyebrows. She then looked at Lofa and tried to check the changes in the Destiny Energy, but because Lofa had been close to Krune for so long, it was very hard to verify.

Still, she was able to see a little. It was then that Fefei showed a smile and asked Krune to call her later.

Back at Krune's house, he invited Lofa in to hear what she wanted to talk about.

Lofa looked at Krune and then took a deep breath.

"Do you remember when I said that I wanted to be with you before the exchange program started?"

Krune nodded.

"Yes. That's why I asked Master if he could make an exception and let you guys participate too. I remember that you looked to want it a lot."

Lofa then sighed.

"So, it was really that the reason. Have you ever thought that it had nothing to do with the exchange program?"

Krune was surprised at that.

"Nothing to do with that? But then why would you ask me to stay with you? Could it be that you are having problems in your element control and need more teaching? If that's the case, you could just say it straight away. I wouldn't mind giving a few more pointers. But I believe that Yusa also isn't that much behind if you consider your Water Element control alone, though."

Lofa felt gloomier the more Krune spoke. Yusa and Shinja had alerted her countless times that Krune was blind to those kinds of things, but to think that it could reach this extent.

"It had never been about cultivation or training, not at all. What I meant was something completely different."

Krune then showed a puzzled expression. As expected of the 'eyes for Feifei only wisp.' When it has anything to do with love, he is totally clueless to anyone other than her.

Lofa finally lost her patience and said out loud!

"I wanted you to choose me because I love you! I wanted to stay with you because I wanted you to marry me instead! That's what I meant! That's what I always wanted ever since that time back in the Garmon Planet!"

It doesn't matter how clueless Krune could be. When it is put that way, even he would understand.

"This..."

Krune felt that it didn't make sense. After all, he is a wisp, not a human. Why would Lofa give birth to this kind of feeling for him? But after looking at Lofa's expression, he could at least tell that she wasn't joking.

"Why?"

Lofa shook her head and said.

"There is no why. It just happens. You like Feifei, don't you? Then let me ask you, do you need a reason to like her?"

Krune was taken aback with that question. If there was a reason, Krune would say that it was because of their promise, or because she saved his life. But when he thought about that, he felt that at the moment, whether she had saved him or promised anything, he wouldn't care. He just wants to stay with her. Indeed, at the moment, Krune noticed that he really didn't need a reason to like Feifei.

"I see..."

Krune then smiled bitterly and said.

"I'm sorry."

Lofa also smiled back at him.

"It's okay, I already expected that answer. I just wanted to hear it from your mouth."

Lofa continued.

"The reason I took so long to confess is that I was expecting Feifei to not care about you anymore. I mean, how could that even work, right? Although we didn't know that she was the daughter of the clan head, we knew that she was from their family. How could she care about a promise that she made with a wisp when she was a child?"

"That was why I decided to wait, wait for the day that you would receive her denial so that I could have my chance. But after finding out that she was coming, I got afraid. Still, I had some hope that it was just a coincidence. But that hope was shattered when I saw how she treated you on the first day. Others might not understand since they don't know about your relationship with Feifei. But how could I not?"

Krune didn't say anything and just listened.

"After we got to train in the Spiritual Pool, I saw how now and then, Feifei would look at you, and you did the same back. It was at that moment that I knew that I really had no chances anymore. So I decided that I would put an end to it after the Spiritual Pool closed. Now, here I am, making my confession."

Lofa then laughed a little.

"To be honest, I was still a little hopeful that after I confessed, you would change your mind. But of course, that was not the case."

Krune felt somewhat gloomy, but he soon recovered.

"That is right, I really can't think about anyone else, so once again, I'm sorry. Still, I do consider you as important as everyone else. So I hope that you will still help me with cooking in the future."

Lofa heard that and was taken aback. Then, she started to laugh.

"What is it? After so much is said, we went back all the way to cooking again?"

Krune noticed that it didn't seem right either, and showed an embarrassed expression.

"I... am not used to this kind of situation."

Lofa then shook her head.

"It's okay, that is the Krune that and everyone else knows, after all."

In fact, that is the Krune that Lofa fell in love with. But she didn't say that this time.

"Sigh. Anyway, I won't get on your way anymore. I will take my leave now, too. I need to think alone for a while. Also, the teaching schedule is going to start in two days, so I need to get back to make sure that I'm ready for that."

Krune nodded and bid farewell to Lofa. For him, there was nothing else to be said. He likes Feifei, and he doesn't have any intention of changing it, so any further words would be futile.

Lofa then started to fly back to her own residence in the outer sect, but when halfway there, she found Feifei blocking her path. She didn't know how Feifei knew that she was going to pass through this place, but she didn't mind much either. They are in the Divine Path Sect, so there is no way that Feifei will try something to her. Lofa then approached Feifei and said.

"You don't need to worry, I just got reject by him. In fact, I knew that it was going to happen the moment you played that scene with Krune at the Spaceship Port. I was just too stubborn to accept reality."

Feifei then sighed and shook her head.

"I already know about that."

Even though Lofa's destiny energy is hard to read due to her proximity to Krune, it was still possible for Feifei to see a little. When Krune said that Lofa wanted to talk with him, Feifei had tried to look at Lofa's destiny energy. Sure enough, she was still able to see that Lofa would pass through emotional distress that day. It was then that she was certain that Krune would not break their promise.

If fact, Feifei was pretty sure that Krune wouldn't disappoint her anyway since she trusts him. I was just that, as a woman, she still felt somewhat fearful.

Lofa was taken aback, though.

"You know?"

Feifei nodded.

"Would you be able to keep a secret?"

Lofa was surprised with that question but nodded anyway. Other than the fact that they like the same wisp, Lofa had nothing against Feifei to start with.

Feifei then explained to her about her Major Core. Of course, she didn't say that her Destiny Core was different from the others, just that it was a destiny core, nothing else.

"I see, no wonder you knew I was going to flying past this place when I did."

She then looked at Feifei and asked.

"So, why did you come? I don't feel like you are the type that would add insult to the injury."

Feife then shook her head.

"You are right, I'm not this type. I just wanted to talk to you for a while. Although we both liked the same wisp, it doesn't change the fact that you were able to see Krune's real worth. As you know, before that battle against Wang Ting from my territory, almost everyone only thought about him like a wisp, nothing more. Even as the Sect Master's disciple, it was evident that no one thought much about him."

Feifei continued

"But you and your friends were different, especially you. You loved him even though you knew he was a wisp. Just how many would have the courage to do that? Some might say that it was because Krune was the Sect Master's disciple, but I can tell that your feelings come from way before that happened."

Lofa heard all of that but felt even more puzzled.

"In the end, what you want to say?"

Feifei then got close to Lofa and gave her a hug.

"What I mean is that even though we were rivals for a short amount of time, I still like your personality."

Lofa was taken aback and immediately got away from Feifei.

"Stop it! I don't need your pity. Just... leave me alone for a while."

Feifei then nodded and said.

"Very well. I just wanted you to know that you, who didn't look down on Krune for his race, will always be someone I respect. I also respect you as someone who loved him too."

Feifei then turned around and was just about to leave when suddenly, Lofa made her a question.

"You keep talking in the past tense. Loved, liked... Just so that you know, I haven't stopped liking him yet, okay?"

Feifei then paused for a second and then continued to move forward, but she still left a sentence behind.

"Haha! It's as you said... Yet!"

Lofa felt puzzled with those last words, but before she could ask, Feifei had already left.

She then sighed and kept on her way back home.

When she arrived there, she noticed that someone was already waiting in front of her door.

"Tasier, why are you here?"

Tasier then looked at her and said.

"Isn't that obvious? I came to know what happened after your confession."

Lofa was surprised.

"How did you know about it? I've never told you when I was going to do that."

Tasier then started to laugh.

"Have you forgotten who spent more time with you than anyone else? Even more than Krune, Shinja, Ao, or Yusa? I might be a demon beast, but I'm not an idiot. I dare say that I know you better than you know yourself at the moment. Hahaha!"

Lofa felt a little embarrassed with that answer.

"Is... Is that so?"

Now that she thinks about it, she did indeed spend a lot of time with him. It was then that she remembered Feifei's last word: Yet!

She then looked back at Tasier and shook her head.

'It couldn't be, right?'
