Chapter 20: Seabed Temple

Yami: Alright, is everyone ready?

Magna: Yes Captain Yami! I'm ready!

Asta: Yes sir!

Vanessa: You know me, I'm always ready

Noelle: Yeah.....

Luck: Let's go and fight some strong people!

Yami: Blue?

Yami looks at me for confirmation, I take my Mask off and place it in the inside of my trench coat.

Blue: Yeah.....

Yami: Alright let's go then

The whole Black Bulls squad get on their brooms and fly to the beach located near the Seabed Temple. Since I don't use a broom, I use my shadows to travel, I create a shadow wave similar to a wave at sea and stand on it as it pushes forward.

Finral: I can't believe we are going to the beach!

Yami: And I said we aren't there to mess around. You fool about and I will kill you

Finral: R-Right!

........did we leave Gordon?

We did didn't we......oh well.

Not my problem, that's either on Gordon's or Yami's.

We arrived at the beach and it was hot, not hot enough for me but definitely for the others. Some people were here and there was even a restaurant.

Yami: Alright, I'm going to look somewhere and find out where this temple is, you do the same.

He leaves and the others clearly didn't listen and went into clothes appropriate for the beach. Vanessa's and Noelle's showed too much skin and that's bad....what if someone grabs them?

Vanessa: Blue! Come, let's play!

Blue: Play what?

Vanessa: Just come

She grabs my wrist and drags me across the sand to some sort of net. On one side of the net was Magna and Luck who had a ball with them.

Blue: What is this game?

Vanessa: It's volleyball, I'll explain.

Vanessa explains how to play this game as we were a team against Magna and Luck. All I had to do was prevent the ball touching the ground on our side but do the opposite to Magna and Luck's side.....

It was safe to say that I dominated easily.

Magna: How?! How is he so good?!

Vanessa: Yay! We won!

Vanessa brings me into a hug and shoves my head into her chest, I couldn't see anything so I tapped Vanessa to let her know.

She.....didn't seem to care as her hold tightened.

Vanessa: Oh come on Blue, enjoy this moment. Any boy would die to be in this position~

Blue:.......Why?

Vanessa: Men love the many parts of a woman~

Blue: I don't think I do

I escape from her grip which caused Vanessa to cross her arms and pout, I walk around and saw that Asta was being attacked by a shark, Finral was trying to talk to other girls and Charmy and Grey (who turned into Charmy) were collecting crabs.

This.....felt nice. Seeing the others having fun.......fun......

When was the last time I had fun?

I don't think I ever had fun, when I played that game with Vanessa.....it felt nice. Maybe it wasn't a bad idea to come here, I.....I want to have more fun.

Noelle: U-Umm Blue

Blue: What is it?

Noelle walks over to me and she was shy for some reason, she tried to look at me but her eyes kept darting away from my gaze. It must be because she isn't used to seeing my face.

Noelle: Wh-What do you think about my swim suit?

I look at Noelle and I didn't know what to think about what she was wearing. It was revealing and she seemd slightly uncomfortable.

Blue:......I don't know....it looks nice on you?

Noelle: Do you really t-think so?

Blue:.....Yeah....

Noelle: [Smiles and Blushes] Thank you Blue

Blue:........

Noelle: Why don't you take that trench coat off? Isn't it too hot?

Blue:......Is it meant to be?

Noelle: W-Well if you're fine then you can keep it on

Blue: Okay......

Noelle: Oh, is there any reason why you kept your mask off?

Blue:......No....I....just wanted to

Noelle: I think it's good you did, y-you look better with it off

Blue: People keep saying that....is it true? Are they lying to me?

Noelle:.....No, they aren't. You really do look better, you can wear the mask but not all the time. The marks on your face are slowly disappearing so try to keep it off

Blue: I'll try

I walk around the beach and approach the sea, I could feel some sort of magic presence from the sea. Is this the Seabed Temple? It must be because what else would be under the sea?

I go back towards the others but saw that they were buried under the sand with their heads just above the sand. Yami was standing before them and he was disappointed.

Yami: I told you to not mess about and you clearly didn't listen. Oh well, it is what it is, where is the kid?

Blue: Here.....

Yami: Oh, where did you go?

Blue: I was walking around, I can feel the mana from the Seabed Temple under the ocean

Yami: You can? Well that's good, I already knew about it. Anyways listen up, I found out that we won't be able to get there because of underwater tornados. They're too violent but in a few days, there will be a full Moon and the ocean will calm down.

Asta: Wait how are we going to get there?

Yami: Noelle will do it

Noelle: W-What?

Yami: You're the only one that can do this, you use water magic. So train yourself for the next few days and surpass your limits.

Noelle: O-Okay.....

Everyone gets out of the sand and we all go to the restaurant to eat. Everyone orders what they want.....but I didn't know what I want.

Magna: Blue are you not going to eat?

Blue:.....I don't know what's good

Yami: Oh right you barely eat

Magna: Alright Blue! I'm going to show the many different delicacies! So get your stomach and taste buds ready!

Blue:........Okay?

Magna orders many different dishes and gets me to try them, there was steak, ramen, pancakes and other many dishes I have never heard of or tasted....

They were......good, they tasted nice. But then there was something that Magna presented to me....it was something called Ice Cream.

Now that........was nice....

I think I had about 10 scoops of ice cream.

Magna: Woah Blue! You really like Ice cream huh?

Vanessa: I mean who doesn't?

Blue: It's....very nice

Asta: I know right!

Luck: Hey Magna, is Blue getting better with us?

Magna: Huh? Yeah now that I think about it, this is the most amount of time he has spent with us.

Finral: Let's celebrate! Blue is now talking with us!

Asta: YEAH!

The others decided to celebrate again but Noelle didn't feel like it, she leaves the restaurant and walks on the beach while it was dark outside. Something told me to follow her, I get up and Asta had the same idea as we follow Noelle.

Asta: Noelle?

Noelle: Hmmm? O-Oh what are you doing here?

Asta: We could say the same to you

Noelle: It's.....nothing

Blue:......You don't think you can do what Yami told you to do....right?

Noelle: H-How did you know?

Blue: You were never confident in yourself or your magic. You feel great pressure on your shoulders.....you shouldn't think like that

Asta: Yeah! You need to believe in yourself Noelle! You can do it!

Noelle: D-Do you really think I can?

Blue: You can......

Before Noelle could thanks us, we heard a girl's voice nearby, she was singing and both Asta and Noelle were interested so they go and check. I follow them and we saw a girl with long red hair tied in a pony tail singing, it wasn't really words but there was a nice melody to it.

Asta: Woah.....

Noelle: She is so good!

???: Oh hello there! Did you like my singing?

Asta: Yeah it was good! What's your name?

Kahono: My name is Kahono, are you three Magic Knights?

Asta: Yeah! My name is Asta! This is Noelle and this is Blue!

Noelle: Hello

Blue:......

Asta: Come on Blue, you've got to say hello!

Blue:....Hello

Kahono: Hello to you too Blue! What magic squad are you in?

Asta: We're in the Black Bulls

Kahono: Oh wow! So cool! 

Noelle: What was that song Kahono?

Kahono: It's my Song magic!

Noelle: Song magic?

Asta: That's a thing?

Kahono: Yes let me show you!

Kahono starts singing again and like last time, it wasn't words but melodic sounds, however, Asta's injuries from the fight against the Eye of the Midnight Sun were gone

Asta: Woah I feel much better! Did you do that?!

Blue: So you can heal?

Kahono: Yes but I also can use it as a support boost in battle! Or for entertainment purposes! You see I have a dream and that is to perform to everyone with my magic

Asta: That's a good dream!

She can....heal with her magic? I wonder......can she heal my eye? Or even my blood somehow? This can help me see if I'm truly a monster.....

Kahono: Thank you! I'm also doing it for money!

Asta/Noelle: EHHHH?!

Blue: Fair enough.....

Kahono: So what brings you three here?

Blue: We're looking for the Seabed Temple

Kahono: The Seabed Temple? Oh okay! You want to go underwater for that

Asta: We know, we just have to travel there with Noelle's magic.

Kahono: Oh you shouldn't a problem then right?

Noelle: U-Umm actually we do, I have until the next full moon to control my magic

Kahono: You can't control it?

Noelle: It's been like this for me ever since.

Kahono: I see....is there a reason for that?

Noelle: I-I'm....not sure

Kahono: I think you can, you just don't believe it. You have to focus on what makes you happy

Noelle: What makes me happy?

Blue: Happy............that could work for you........

Noelle: Y-You really think so?

Asta: Yeah! Your family treated you bad so it made you think badly of your magic, if you feel happy then you can control it!

Noelle: I-I see....thank you Kahono

Kahono: No problem! I'll try and help you in the days you have left.

Noelle: Thank you Kahono

Kahono: No problem! Oh! Blue what happened to your eye?

Blue:.....Don't worry about it.....for now

Asta: For now?

I don't say anything else and walk back to the hotel that we were staying at, we have a mission and I was going to make sure we completed it. To do that, I will help Noelle control her magic and then get the magic stone from the Seabed Temple.
