Chereads / The Rising of Kingdom of Fate / Chapter 13 - *BONUS [Christmas Special]

Chapter 13 - *BONUS [Christmas Special]

The orc village is bustling with activity as Takahiro, Lara, Ryna, and Green prepare for a celebration unlike any the orcs and ultra goblins have experienced – Christmas. Takahiro, adorned in festive attire, stands before the eager crowd.

Takahiro(grinning):

"Today, we're going to celebrate Christmas, a human tradition of joy and togetherness. It's about giving, sharing, and appreciating the bonds we have".

The orcs and ultra goblins exchange curious glances, their interest piqued.

Takahiro(continuing):

"We'll start with decorating the village. Lara, Ryna, Green, let's spread the festive spirit!"

They all get to work, adorning the village with makeshift decorations. Lara uses her magical prowess to create enchanting lights, while Ryna and Green assist with hanging ornaments on trees.

.....

LATER THAT DAY

.....

The orc village is transformed into a winter wonderland. Colorful lights drape from branches, and improvised ornaments add a touch of festive cheer. Takahiro steps back, admiring the result.

Takahiro(smiling):

"This looks amazing, everyone! Now, let's gather around the central fire pit".

The orcs and ultra goblins assemble, their curiosity and excitement palpable.

Takahiro(holding a wrapped box):

"In the spirit of Christmas, we exchange gifts. It's a gesture to show appreciation for one another. Who would like to go first?"

An ultra goblin, Gruk, steps forward, holding a crudely wrapped package.

Gruk(nervously):

"I made this for Green. It's a carved wooden figure of a wolf".

Green, touched by the gesture, accepts the gift with gratitude.

Green(smiling):

"Thank you, Gruk. I appreciate the effort".

The gift exchange continues, creating a sense of camaraderie and warmth among the villagers.

As night falls, Takahiro, Lara, Ryna, and Green gather around a bonfire, the village aglow with festive lights.

Takahiro(raising a toast):

"To Christmas in the orc village! May this tradition bring us closer together and fill our hearts with joy".

They clink improvised mugs together, sipping on a beverage crafted from local ingredients. Laughter and merriment fill the air.

Ryna(smiling):

"This is a delightful celebration, Takahiro. I never thought I'd experience something like this again".

Lara(teasingly):

"And who knew orcs and ultra goblins could be so good at decorating?"

Green(chuckling):

"We have a hidden talent, it seems".

As the celebration continues, Takahiro notices a sense of unity and happiness among the villagers, transcending their differences.

....

....

Under the starlit sky, Takahiro, Lara, Ryna, and Green gather around a festive feast. Barbecued meats, fruits, and various orc and ultra goblin delicacies adorn the table.

Takahiro(smiling):

"Let's dig in! Christmas feasts are all about indulgence and savoring good food".

They share stories, jokes, and laughter, creating memories that bridge the gaps between their diverse backgrounds.

Ryna(content):

"I never thought I'd enjoy a Christmas feast with orcs and ultra goblins".

Lara(grinning):

"Well, get used to it. We're forging a new tradition here".

After the feast, they sit around the fire, enjoying the warmth and camaraderie.

Takahiro(contemplative):

"Christmas is about more than just decorations and feasts. It's about bringing people together, fostering bonds, and creating moments that last a lifetime".

They all nod in agreement, realizing the significance of the newfound tradition in the orc village.

The festive celebration in the orc village is in full swing when, to everyone's surprise, Fate makes a grand entrance dressed as Santa Claus. A bag filled with gifts slung over his shoulder, he bellows a hearty "Ho, ho, ho!"

Fate(laughing):

"Merry Christmas, my friends! I come bearing gifts for each and every one of you".

Excitement fills the air as the villagers gather around, curious to see what Fate has in store.

Fate(distributing gifts):

"For Gruk, a shiny new helmet. Green, a set of enchanted arrows. And for Lara, a magical pendant".

Lara's eyes light up with joy as she receives the pendant.

Lara(smiling):

"Thank you, Fate! This is wonderful".

The gift-giving continues, bringing smiles and gratitude to the orc and ultra goblin villagers.

....

....

LATER

....

....

As the night winds down, Ryna and Takahiro find themselves sitting near the festive decorations, the warm glow of lights surrounding them.

Ryna(looking at the decorations):

"This Christmas celebration has been unforgettable. I never imagined we'd experience something like this in a world so different from our own".

Takahiro (nodding):

"It's amazing how traditions can bring people together, forging new bonds and creating lasting memories".

Ryna(smiling):

"And to think, Fate as Santa Claus – that was unexpected".

Takahiro (chuckling):

"Fate does have a knack for surprises".

They share a comfortable silence, taking in the atmosphere of the orc village.

Ryna(looking at Takahiro):

"You know, Takahiro, this world has given us so many wonderful memories. From battles to celebrations, each moment feels like a chapter in a grand adventure".

Takahiro (grateful):

"I couldn't agree more, Ryna. And sharing these moments with you makes it even more special".

Their eyes meet, and a moment of understanding passes between them.

In that moment, Ryna kisses Takahiro gently, a gesture filled with the warmth of friendship and gratitude.

Takahiro(smiling):

"Thank you, Ryna, for being a part of this journey. Here's to many more memories in the days to come".

They sit together, savoring the quiet beauty of the orc village, surrounded by the echoes of laughter and celebration. As the night winds down, Fate, still dressed as Santa Claus, watches over the joyful scene, content with the magic of Christmas bringing smiles to the faces of the orc and ultra goblin villagers.
