Chapter 185 Perks of being attractive
Az was apparently more attractive to the birds than any of them present there.
"Muuu~! Muuuu~!"
It was jumping around the place, and there were around a dozen birds following after them.
Miu inside of him was having fun since the friend that she had been with for so long was just running around and trying to get away from these birds that seemed to be interested in them.
It was strange seeing Flins showing direct interest in someone or anyone for that matter, especially a Slime.
Most of them present there didn't understand why it was happening or why they were following Az around or why they were so interested in them it seemed like they were in love with them or something.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
But Alex knew exactly why this was happening…
"Since Az is a Mana slime with Elemental affinity with water and light, the ones that are following him around are the Flins that were highly trained for the dark environment.
They are also attracted by the Mana that Miu has, and since the two of them are together, there is something unique going on with the birds."
"Gruuuug~. Thy think thee slime and thai friend isha torch~."
As Bald said, the slime and gecko had become the torch that these special Flins were trained to follow.
They were trained by the tamers using some special methods that were established and worked well in a diverse variety of beings of the Flin category.
And, unlike the unique method of Elio, this taming methods were used with various objects that were used in training them.
One of them being a torch that was used to teach them how to find the sources of fire, light, water, and Mana in a forest or cave environment.
These birds were then conditioned to follow these things and find them, or be attracted to them.
"This is funny, haha~."
For Elio who understood how troubled his little friend was and how the other little one was enjoying the misery of her friend, this entire thing was just fun.
He was sitting on one side with Misha going around to various birds with her mom and Odin to see how they behaved around her.
But, unlike the slime, she was treated coldly by the birds that didn't find anything special from her.
They could sense Mana but since they weren't creatures born from nature, they weren't something that could perceive her special Ichor.
They were simple birds that thought she was also a simple being and mostly either ignored her or showed only a little interest in her.
On the other hand, they were all afraid of Alex as well as Odin who were either Aura users or were affiliated with a certain power that didn't go well with these birds.
Odin especially was terrifying some of the birds and had to go to the other area where the birds that actually worked with the Dark knights were.
So, he was there, and Misha was with her mom who was pretty attractive to the Birds thanks to her Holy powers.
Some birds that were trained for the light element mistook her holy power as a light element and were following her if they weren't after Az, and the rest of them were gathered around Elio… who was the most attractive to them out of the rest of them.
"You should pay at least some attention to these little ones" There were around three or four dozen birds gathered before Elio.
They were all tamed beasts and they were gathered before a tamer that knew how to treat them.
Thanks to his title, he had even more affinity with these creatures than the simple creatures that could be trained.
These birds, especially the ones who could be called 'Well trained' ones among the others, could tell this person was not just a simple observer.
He was also exuding all kinds of energies, be it the elemental Mana, the energy of a Tamer, or the magic powers of a mage.
They were simply attracted to him, but Elio was just enjoying the show happening with Az.
"Haha, I'm not the one that needs a Flin here Alex, and there's nothing else here for me. I'm just having fun, haha."
She was being rejected by every one of them.
With her Aura frightening them, and and without any kind of Elemental affinity, she was pretty much hated by them instead of just being invisible to them like Misha.
But, she liked these creatures.
They were adorable, and the diverse ones present around him were quite a unique bunch that she would love to have in reality as well. Explore new worlds at empire
But, they didn't like her… he knew if they didn't like her now, there's no way they used like her when she was much stronger, so at the very least, he wanted to let her have a little fun with them.
"You… dummy."
They were gathered around him and were avoiding her since their attraction to Elio was much greater than their dislike for Alex.
They simply didn't want to interact with her so they weren't paying attention to her, however, since they were before her, they couldn't help it when someone as strong as her picked them and played with them.
"Thanks."
She was gentle with them and after a while, they also started liking her soft touch, so it was a fun experience for her who actually couldn't do something like this in the past.
"We should go though… there's a lot to see here and this is just the first area."
"Yeah. Let's go after five more minutes, hehe."
He was still looking at Az who had somehow managed to get away from those birds. But, from beside him, Alex was looking at him with a warm expression.
She was thankful to him and she wanted to say that as well, but she didn't say it.
"Dummy."
She just kissed his cheeks and continued playing with the green crow which had submitted to her gentle touch.
She was a swordsman so she knew how to handle delicate things well.
Especially the living ones.
She might not be a taming expert like him or someone who understood these creatures as he did, but she was still well aware of the uniqueness of these creatures.
Her worldly experiences with various kinds of creatures had made her an expert of her own unique craft…
