Chapter 1293 Side Story: Fairy Dragon III
"I wish to acquire a bottle of your Pure Water. I wish to get it because I need it in order to evolve." Peridot stated with all honesty.
The Water Elemental King looked at Peridot with scrutinizing eyes and he could tell that the Ryujin before him is speaking the truth. Unlike the ones that approach his lake with bad intentions or even asking for permission, these youngsters have respect, and he should at least hear them out.
"Explain why my Pure Water makes you evolve?" King Adamsale asked Peridot.
"According to my master, I will need Pure Water Blessed by the Elemental Kings in order to become a Fairy Dragon." Peridot answered truthfully which shocked the Water Elemental King as he suddenly remembered something long ago.
"What a cute fish. You make any water around you inhabit clean which is why I shall take care of you until you are strong enough to defend yourself. You make nature clean which is why you are the most beautiful thing that I have gazed my eyes with." A beautiful voice that came from a woman that has a bead on her forehead stated.
"King Adamsale? If you do not like to help us, then what can we do to have you give us the item?" Levin Cloud asked but he was suddenly sprayed with lake water.
"You are very harsh child! You think I will not help you when such a pure being like her is asking something from the bottom of her heart. Tell me, Ryujin…what is your name?" King Adamsale asked.
"I am called Peridot." Peridot answered.
"Well, Peridot. I have seen your intentions. I just need you to answer my question. What do you think about my appearance?" King Adamsale asked.
"Your appearance?" Peridot asked to verify if she heard it correctly.
"Yes, my appearance." King Adamsale stated.
"If you mean, appearance wise…you look normal. You are a bit unique, but you do not look bad." Peridot answered honestly as she used the basis of what a catfish looks like.
She called him unique since she has yet to see a blue catfish in the real world. Levin Cloud was about to scold Peridot for saying that because he forgot that the Water Elemental King Adamsale is very sensitive about his appearance, but he got surprised. King Adamsale suddenly laughed out loud which made the lake shimmer.
"Is there something funny with what I said?" Peridot asked as she did not know why King Adamsale began laughing.
"Nothing! I just thought you resemble someone that I know from long ago. I shall give you a bottle of my Pure Water and I shall bless it as well." King Adamsale stated.
"Thank you very much!" Peridot replied in excitement as she jumped.
"You are lucky that you answered honestly without hiding anything or else I would have blown you away. If you want, I can tell you where to get the blessings of other Elemental Kings. I am sure you already know that Elemental Kings are not that fond of each other but the ones I will tell you will help you as long as you pass their tests." King Adamsale stated as he told them of the locations of the remaining five.
"Thank you very much! You are already helping us so much. We cannot impose in you any more or else we would be overbearing. Ah! Please have these sweets as compensation." Peridot stated as she gave King Adamsale a pouch of sweets.
When the three left, King Adamsale turned into a humanoid appearance that looked like an extremely regal looking man. He picked up the pouch that Peridot gave him and opened it up. The stoic expression of the Water Elemental King suddenly curved into a smile as he suddenly cried tears that became pearls when it landed on the grass.
"Here, Adamsale! I got your favorite Moondrops! Better eat one or two a day or else you will finish them in a day." The voice of a beautiful woman in King Adamsale memory stated as he remembered her first master who was the Fairy Dragon.
"To think that I met someone that shares the master\'s personality. What will the others think when they see her?" King Adamsale told himself as he went back into the lake and vanished.

Levin Cloud did not think it would be that easy because it was never that easy when talking to the Elemental Kings. Even the elders of the Faekin told him to be wary of the Elemental Kings because they are moody. The Elemental Kings that are very sociable with the Faekin are not sociable with their fellow Elemental Kings.
Each of the Elemental Kings that Levin Cloud knew are either recluse or hate other Elemental Kings. King Adamsale, who he thought would be the most difficult to handle, basically gave Peridot what they need without much effort. He only attributed it to Peridot\'s personality of being truthful and sees the beauty of anyone.
"That was easy. I thought that we were going to fight but we got the item that we need." Kabrakan stated.
"It was only easy because of her but I am not sure about the other Elemental Kings as I have not heard of them or barely heard of them." Levin Cloud stated.
The names given by King Adamsale are Elemental Kings that are unfamiliar to Levin Cloud, but he knows where they are. From what the Water Elemental King stated, the five remaining elemental kings will bless the Pure Water as long as they answer their tests.
