Chapter 151: New Members

"sure, I don't mind you joining"

Finally I spoke my answer, agreeing to Leonardo's proposal, his proposal has a lot of pros and cons but ultimately the pros outweigh the cons, first I would be able to make Leonardo work for me while I reap the rewards of his hard work

In the game there were many scenarios where things got tough for him but he overcame them causing him to get generous rewards, so that's what I would do, I will make him risk his life for those rewards and wring him dry of those same rewards, since there's no player that controls him, I will become that player

Second it's a forgone condition but I will be able to lay my hands on Sonia, from what I know right now she's a shy, innocent and not so out spoken girl, I just have to play my cards right to corrupt this little cute girl and with my hidden worker Clara, I might just know how

Third and the most important reason being I will be able to push the problems that come to me onto him, yeah that's right, the problems that come for me, I am not naïve to believe that I won't be targeted

This is not the game world where it only focused on the part of the Academy arcs but a real world with it's real world bullshit problems, I won't even be surprised if there's a group out there planning my demise

I mean I had shown something that no others could even show, I purified corruption!, something which was said to be impossible but I had done it, I am sure that I might be in a hit list of several hidden powers

Of course with several hidden powers at my arsenal, I am not that worried but I would not count on it completely, after all I am in the open while my enemies are hidden, I could never tell what they might attack with and I must be vigilant

And that's where Leonardo comes in, my very on shield, with his problem attracting halo, I am sure that most of them would fall at him, so while my enemies fight him in the front I would catch them from the back, where I would ruthlessly stab them from the back

'um, sounds good'

Nodding internally to my plan, I shake hands with Leonardo who now was having a happy face, after that I looked towards Sonia as I spoke

"What about you"

"Ah!?"

Suddenly being the focus of attention Sonia panicked as her gaze started wondering left and right, seeing it I spoke in a calmingly tone

"Miss.Sonia, tell me what do you plan to do?, if you want you can join too, I would always appreciate a cutesy like you on my faction"

"Cu-Cutesy!?"

My words caught her by surprise making a blush take her face, she looked at me shyly for sometime before which she took a deep breath and spoke

"Yes, I would join any place big brother Leonardo goes too"

Hearing it I nodded my head and agreed, using my communication device I contacted Alex and notified him about both Leonardo and Sonia, asking him to provide them appropriate positions

With that I talked with both of them for a few minutes before I let them go, I could see that Leonardo was reluctant to leave Elda, well everybody could see that he was interested in her and I could see Sonia hurting at it too

'um, looks like it won't take long'

I thought as I send them out, soon they left, silence descended between us, as only me and Elda was left in the room, feeling the silence Elda spoke

"Big brother, why did you take that talentless girl in?"

"What do you mean?"

I acted oblivious but Elda didn't relent

"Big brother I could feel that you had some ulterior motives for taking her in"

Hearing Elda's words I was surprised but I didn't panic, reeling in my emotions, I spoke

"Sigh....I don't have to hide it from you I guess, well you see that girl's a half vampire"

"Really!?"

Now it was Elda's turn to be surprised, she didn't expect that seemingly innocent girl was hiding such a secret but after some time she frowned

"Even if she's a half it doesn't promise that she will awaken, right?"

"No, I am sure that she will awaken in the coming future"

"Are you sure big brother?"

"Yes, 100%"

"Then, she will be a worthy asset to invest on"

"Yes, she will be"

I inwardly nodded my head at Elda's silence, she didn't ask me how I knew everything I just said, it seems that she respected my secrets and I quickly like that side of her

Moreover I could see that she looks at Elda strategically and not as a resourceful friend, I smirked at Elda as I ruffled her head with a pat, causing her eyes to close as she relished in it

"Look at you little Elda, all grown up, I am happy to know that you have grown up into such a strategic girl"

Hearing my praise Elda smiled proudly, she giggled as she spoke to me

"Of course!, I wanted to help you brother, I can't always have you saving me you know!"

"Yeah...yeah"

I spoke back to her with an indulging smile, after that we kept talking to each other for a few moments after which I went to the recruiting area along with Elda

Knowing that Elda was joining Alex was very happy, with her he would be able to think about many new tactics for future fights, after that I joined the rest as I guided the recruiting

We had actually managed to finds some diamonds hidden in the dust, all in all by night we had a productive recruitment, after that we spent some time discussing the future of the faction

And by deep in to the night, everything was all set, I bid farewell to my teammates as I headed to sleep, since the mansion was bought it became my head office, where I and the rest of the team would spend their time, while I went to sleep Elda begged me with her puppy eyes to sleep with me but I denied her completely, I am sure that if I sleep at the same bed as her, I would definitely eat her up, so I had to resist my urges

'soon Austin, soon'

It was with these thoughts that I headed to bed but just as I was sleeping a knock was heard outside, curious I opened the door, only to meet with the site of Clara with sexy a revealing blue night gown, she had a seductive smile on her face as she spoke

"Master, would you be willing to accept this maid of yours for tonight?"

I licked my lips as I looked at Clara upside down, a chuckle escaped my mouth as I spoke back

"Sure, I would love to discipline my maid tonight"

Seeing my heated gaze, Clara's body trembled with anticipation, Clara's body which I had trained during the last weeks started to get hot just from my lust filled gaze, with her body hot and her mind and heart filled with love Clara sexily swayed her body as she entered my room
