Unspeakable bubbles

With a flap of its wings, the raptor sent the man swiftly disappearing into the night.

.................................................. ...

The moonlight shone down, casting a silvery glow over the town.

Bubble was eating melon and admiring the moon, but felt a little bored.

Masumi-neechan and Uncle Jack were so engrossed in each other that they ignored the little girl. When Bubble tried to talk to them, she only got perfunctory replies like "um" or "oh".

Seeing the atmosphere between the two, where they didn't want to be disturbed by outsiders, the little girl wisely didn't continue to bother them.

After finishing the last bite of cantaloupe, Bubble seemed to sense something.

She paused for a moment, then glanced at the southern sky and ignored it.

Seeing that the little girl was unmoved, Rabbit became very anxious.

The black doll didn't care about anything else; it twisted and turned in Bubble's arms.

"What's wrong, Bunny?" Bubble gently patted the plush toy's head.

"..."

Although the rabbit has developed a sense of intelligence, it is clearly not yet able to communicate verbally with its owner.

If it could speak, it would definitely shout, "Baby, little master, hurry and grab the baby!"

Just a moment ago, Rabbit sensed a huge energy fluctuation appearing in the south of the town.

A powerful wave swept across the area, causing the elements in the air to become unstable.

Rabbit was just a newly born familiar, and in its mind, such a commotion must mean that a treasure had been born.

Good things should belong to their little owners!

With this simple belief in mind, the rabbit became very anxious when it saw that its little owner didn't react.

Rabbit jumped up from Bubble's arms, grabbed the little girl's hat, and ran away.

"Oh, hat, don't run away, come back!"

Masumi and Jack were startled and quickly looked towards Bubble, only to find a small, dark animal carrying a baseball cap running on the ground.

"Wait, wait!" The little girl chased after him with all her might.

"Bubble, don't chase it..."

Masumi became anxious. She hadn't been able to see what the little animal was. What if it was a stray dog ​​and Bubble chased it away?

Without hesitation, Jack grabbed Masumi's hand and ran towards the little girl.

However, in just a short while, the bubble had disappeared without a trace.

"Hoo hoo, Ah Chun, let me go, go after him."

Masumi, panting, pulled away from Jack's hand. Now, all she hoped was that without her as a burden, her fiancé could catch up with the young girl.

"..."

Jack looked distressed. Chase him? How could he possibly catch up?

He's not an athlete, well, even if he were, he wouldn't stand a chance.

This was the first time Jack had ever seen a little girl run so fast. No, how could an ordinary little girl have such speed?

'Bubble moving at this speed has probably entered the realm of mystery.'

His thoughts were a bit confused. Jack wasn't unaware of Bubble's situation, but firstly, Bubble's usual words and actions were nothing special, and secondly, Masumi really liked Bubble!

Because Jack loves Bubble so much, he always unconsciously treats her like an ordinary little girl.

The incident happened so suddenly that he was completely stunned.

"Go for it!" Masumi gave Jack a push.

Left with no other choice, he focused on the spot where the last bubble disappeared and ran desperately toward it.

Jack had no hope of catching Bubble; he could only hope that the wild dog or some other animal would get tired of chasing the little girl and let go of its hat.

................................................... .............................................

Outside a cave entrance in the desolate mountains, Andy gazed expectantly at the circle of light before him.

Full moon, cave, Marquis Carmen's family crest.

Once he had gathered all the elements, the gates to the secret realm opened for him.

Just wait a little longer, until the aperture continues to grow to a size that an adult can squeeze into, and then we'll be all set.

The entrance will close the moment you enter the secret realm.

Andy had already looked around on his way here on his griffin, and there wasn't a soul in sight.

He calculated the time; even if someone noticed something was wrong the moment he opened the secret realm, it would be too late.

Unless he has some speed that surpasses the griffin's mount and can pinpoint its location precisely, he might be able to block himself.

But what are the odds? Andy didn't believe he was that unlucky.

That being said, if one's luck is bad, it's impossible to find the secret realm based solely on the information in the notes.

Everything was ready, but Andy's expression gradually turned serious.

The secret realm has been found, but who knows what trials await us?

Andy had worked hard to create a possible opportunity, but when the moment came, his heart inevitably raced.

The griffin circling in the sky suddenly let out a furious roar, and Andy immediately tensed up.

He drew his sword and stood ready.

From afar, a cute voice could be heard approaching.

"Bunny, don't run away, my hat, my hat..."

"Hey, everyone in front, get out of the way! The bubbles just won't stop!"

What the hell?

The moment the look of astonishment appeared, a dark figure rushed into the secret realm with lightning speed.

That wasn't all. Before Andy could react, another dark figure crashed straight into him.

Andy grunted as he was knocked into the circle of light.

"Oh"

The little girl screamed and then followed into the unknown.

Section 145, Chapter 144: Trials

Bubble opened her eyes groggily and saw a group of people surrounding her.

Upon seeing her awake, an elderly man with a full head of white hair, dressed in fine clothes, respectfully said, "My lord, it's time for your meal. Your wife and young master are waiting for you."

"Who are you? Are you talking to Bubble?" the little girl asked curiously.

All she remembered was bumping into someone, and then...

Where's the bunny?

Bubble jumped off the bed, and as she looked around, she inadvertently saw a large mirror.

The mirror itself is fine, but... but who is that middle-aged man standing in front of the bed, looking around blankly?

The little girl walked to the mirror. She reached out her hand, and the uncle in the mirror reached out his hand as well. She shook her head, and the uncle in the mirror shook his head as well.

"..."

In silence, Bubble stared at herself in the mirror without saying a word.

stare----

Gradually, the uncle's face became more and more blurry, the mirror distorted, and Bubble's round face reappeared in the mirror.

The little girl breathed a sigh of relief. Bubbles were fine as long as they were bubbles; she didn't want to turn into an unfamiliar old man.

"Your Excellency Marquis," a voice came from behind.

Bubble's ramblings just now caused a slight commotion among the servants around them. They exchanged glances, and finally the old man stepped forward.

"Sir, would you like to enjoy a delicious meal, or perhaps continue taking a nap in your comfortable bed?"

"Who are you?" Bubble's eyes widened.

This startled even the elderly.

"Uh, I am Warner, your loyal butler."

"Lady Carmen, what's wrong... Should I call a doctor?"

"Carmen? Bubble isn't Carmen. Bubble isn't hungry. Bubble wants to go home!"

She suddenly found herself in an unfamiliar environment and couldn't find her rabbit, so she started to get anxious.

"I'm leaving now, Bunny, Bunny, where are you? Come out quickly!"

The old man was horrified to see Bubble walk straight toward the door.

"Quickly, what are you waiting for! Stop the Marquis immediately!"

"Doctor, quickly fetch the best doctor in the territory!"

.................................................. ...............

"My lord, it's time for your meal. Your wife and young master are waiting for you."

As soon as Andy opened his eyes, he heard this sentence.

He forced himself to stand up despite the aches and pains in his body, and was taken aback when he saw the people around him.

"Um"

Andy gave a vague reply and slowly got out of bed.
