Chapter 817: Miwa In The Squad
Chapter 817 Miwa In The Squad
Before Miwa got too annoyed and threw hands at them, Lith and Dennis stopped with their teasing.
Once they were done, Miwa sighed and asked, "Can you take me back now?"
Though the city was really nice and it was fun to hangout with this group, it was time to go back and take on the responsibilities again.
Lith, standing around her, asked, "You wanna go back so soon? There's a lot of things to do. Plus, we haven't even sparred yet."
Miwa shook her head. "There's no time for all that. I have a little brother to take care of."
Dennis, sipping on some milkshake he stole from Ralph, asked, "How old is he?"
Miwa felt it was a reasonable question and answered, "Eight years old."
"Hmm..." Dennis began pondering things upon hearing that.
Lith and Ralph too began pondering, making Miwa confused.
"What are you three thinking of?" Miwa couldn't help but ask, looking at their strange faces.
Lith rubbed his chin and answered, "Your brother will be thirteen in five years. That means, he'll end up spending his time in an academy until he's eighteen. From then, he would be recruited by some powers if he's strong enough and wouldn't really need you."
"What the..." Miwa was dumbfounded. She didn't think that these three were planning to give her an existential crisis out of nowhere.
"Your little brother can take care of his own self in a while. Come, let's spar in the meantime." Dennis suggested.
He really wanted to fight this short gorilla. She seemed powerful and could be a good challenge.
"But—" Miwa chimed and wanted to say something, but got interrupted.
"Don't worry, everything will be fine. Your brother needs to learn a lot of things and build his foundation before awakening his Magic Core. I'll have someone arrange things for your brother. You need not worry." Lith stated.
Miwa didn't understand him and asked, "And how exactly are you going to do it? Do you think there's someone better than me who can raise him?"
"Yes." Lith replied without hesitation. "You yourself don't know many things, it's better to leave things to experts."
"Huh?" Miwa was confused. "What expert? What exactly are you saying?"
The trio sighed together, looking at this country bumpkin's dumbness.
They knew Miwa was somewhat slow in analyzing things, but couldn't guess that she was this slow.
Lith looked at her and asked while shaking his head, "Shawty, who do you think we are?"
Miwa scrunched her nose as she cringed at being called that. "Don't call me that again."
"Just answer already." Lith repeated.
Miwa thought about it and replied, "You three are some rich nobles?"
The trio nodded their heads.
"That's right." Dennis answered.
Miwa shrugged. "It wasn't that difficult, was it?"
Ralph, in a calm tone, said, "You haven't guessed the whole thing, don't get cocky."
Miwa tilted her head in confusion, not understanding what Ralph meant.
The whole conversation seemed so stupid and so pointless that even Dennis was having a headache.
What Ralph was suffering through at this point, it was something only he knew.
Dennis was already too much for him to handle and now there was someone similar in the group again. It was simply testing his patience at this point.
Lith chimed in to end the conversation and said to Miwa, "I am the Vampire Prince, he's..."
He began introducing himself and the other two, making Miwa widen her eyes in shock.
When Lith finished, Miwa was so shocked that not a single word came out of her mouth. She just stood there, dazed, as if she had heard some out of this world news.
"You're what!?!" Miwa snapped out of her daze and asked in shock.
The three simply nodded their heads.
"You heard it correctly." Dennis answered.
"Holy shit! How did I— No, wait. What are you three doing in the Human Continent? What ulterior plans do you have!?"
Miwa immediately raised her guard and took a defensive stance, realizing that these guys may be enemies.
Even though she enjoyed her time with them, there was no saying that these guys weren't harmless. She was a human, their literal prey, and it was only natural for her to act in such a manner.
Looking at her get so defensive, Dennis got in an attacking stance. "We fighting? Cool!"
"No fighting." Ralph smacked Dennis's head and said.
Dennis clicked his tongue and got up.
Miwa was surprised, but continued to be in her position nonetheless.
Lith walked up to her and shook his head with a sigh, as if he had just encountered an unruly toddler.
He rubbed Miwa's head, making her annoyed, and said, "Your brother will be taken care of and don't worry, you're going back to your home too. We can spar later together."
Saying so, Lith made her teleport back to her home.
"Wai—" Miwa wanted to say something before disappearing, but couldn't do so as Lith's magic was too powerful for her to resist.
"We should go back home too, lads. We need to train ourselves as well." Lith stated.
The two nodded their heads and eventually, they all left to go back to their places.
.....
A month passed.
After the shenanigans with Miwa, Lith had gone back to working and training.
Miwa was a sweet countryside girl, despite appearing so unruly and carefree.
She had somehow become the newest addition to this trio, but would take some time to properly assimilate and join them.
Lith really didn't know that such a strange human lived in this world. There were no mentions in any records and it was a total accidental find.
Lith hadn't met Miwa again and she was busy doing her own things in her town, but just by looking at her from afar, he could tell what sort of special talents she had.
Miwa had pretty little affinity to magic and only possessed only one elemental affinity, which was Destruction.
Though such was the case, she was really formidable in the ways of physical battles. She was a literal tank and on the brighter side, she was actually somehow immune to all sorts of aura.
No aura was enough to scare her and there was no amount of killing intent that could do so as well.
While it was a good thing she didn't feel anything, it was also somehow bad on its own.
One's body, after perceiving a dangerous aura, would feel chills and trigger flight or fight instincts.
But, Miwa didn't possess such a thing and this was dangerous for her. If she couldn't assess how strong her opponent was, she was bound to die someday soon.
Though such was the case, she was really strong in all physical aspects and may not really go down without an actual fight.
Miwa was a literal beast and her joining him, Ralph, and Dennis was actually a very good thing.
Ralph and Dennis alone would be really lonely. Lith couldn't always be there for them. But with Miwa in the squad, they would make a new friend and chill with her.
Miwa had similar potential and strength as those guys. In fact, she had a slight edge over them as she didn't need to train in multiple elements.
These two would need to work really hard if they wanted to catch up to her, but that also wasn't a problem since both were cultivation freaks.
Lith was ahead of everyone by leaps and bounds. There was no competition and it was sort of sad to see himself charge so ahead in the frontlines.
Lith hoped to grow together with the rest of the three, but that was just a passing thought. He knew something like this could never happen.
Lith didn't have any problems regarding this, to say the least. He was actually quite happy.
Miwa, Ralph, and Dennis could work together and grow together. They would prosper and this was something Lith wanted to see.
Miwa could stand in front of literally anyone. She could also see anyone and hear them as well.
It didn't matter if the opposite party was a strong God or an immortal, Miwa could face anyone and everyone due to her special ability.
This was going to be of great help and how the future would hold, that was something Lith was looking forward to.
In any case, Miwa aside, while in the Royal Castle, Lith was actually doing something productive for once and not perving on his ladies.
He had inserted himself into the administration and was learning all the little details of the Vampire Society.
The Vampire Society was really fascinating and much different than the rest of the world.
People in this society were actually happy to be ruled and liked the nobles and the royalty ruling them.
The Vampires had long lives and they naturally got stronger as time passed on. With this fact in consideration, they could easily become strong enough to challenge noble clans.
It was due to this that the noble clans always ensured to be in power and never slack, thereby making the whole Vampire Society be productive.
Another important thing about them was that...
