"But…"
"How am I going to do that?"
"…"
Shin grinned after hearing that.
"Why don't you join ?", he directly asked her that.
"Eh?"
Now that ca out of nowhere.
Of course, he wanted her to join him but asking her that all of a sudden while trying to show that they had the sa cause seed a bit too weird.
"Join you?", the witch asked.
"Yes."
"…"
"You an to say that the humans are your enemies?", she asked.
Shin didn't reply imdiately because he wanted to think about this carefully.
He was a human and obviously he wouldn't look at them as enemies as long as he remains a human from the heart.
But yes, he had hated humans since the start. He could even recall the mont when he was chased by the humans as soon as he was born.
However, he still didn't consider them as his enemies.
He looked at the witch and said, "I am a predator."
That's all he said to win her favor.
'I am a predator?'
'Does that an…', the witch had tons of questions in her mind.
But after hearing him say that, she understood what he actually ant.
It was as if he was saying – 'Any who oppose shall be my prey.'
This gave her chills and while looking at his glowing green eyes, she trembled a bit because the eyes had no emotions.
"The humans have already troubled so of my friends…"
"Do you think I will let them do as they please after disturbing us?", he added.
*gulp*
But the witch was old and wise, so she wouldn't just join due to such half-assed reasoning.
"No…"
"I want you to tell clearly…"
"What do you intend to do?"
"What is your aim? What is your goal?", she asked.
Alira and Terran weren't speaking anything and were just listening to their conversation keenly because they too wanted to know about it.
Of course, Terran sowhat knew about what Shin wanted, but at the mont he wanted to know more and the very exact reason for choosing that path after all, other than things related to Aella, Shin had revealed nothing to Terran.
"Well…"
"When I ca to this world…"
"I promised myself to be the number 1 predator."
"I don't care if it is a human, elf, or anyone else…"
"If they cause trouble or hurt my family mbers…"
"I'll just brand them as my prey." – he replied.
When they heard this, a sense of fear engulfed them. It was a scary side that the witch saw and that was the sa with Terran and Alira.
*gulp*
'Doesn't that just an that he is a double-edged sword?'
'Won't he kill too?'
Yes, the witch started to think that, and Terran got a similar thought, but then again, he knew how much Shin cared for his own family mbers or friends.
"I just want a place that I can call ho."
"I want to build a kingdom where every monster can live in peace.", was what Shin said after generating fear.
"…"
Silence lingered in the air after he said that. All of them were now thinking about what Shin said.
While the witch got the thought that it was wise not to join Shin, Alira looked towards the witch and said, "Master is a good person…"
"He isn't soone bad…"
"He told that he was my friend."
The witch did feel Shin's sincerity in protecting his family and friends.
"Sigh, fine then…"
"I will join you."
She said that right after Alira tried to side Shin.
"Yes!"
"We have another mber!", was what Shin said with a loud voice.
Terran and Alira, both smiled since their team grew a bit more.
"But I can't leave right now…", was what the witch said.
"Oh ya, you were waiting for soone right?", Shin asked.
"Yes…", the witch's eyes sparkled when she said that.
"…"
"You don't have to wait here…"
"You can actually co with us, aunt.", was what Terran said.
"Eh?", when she heard this, her ears tingled all of a sudden.
"Wha-"
She directed her gaze towards Terran when he said that.
"Aunt?"
"You just called …"
"Aunt?", she was really surprised by this.
"Haha, yes aunt…"
"Forgive for not recognizing you…", was what Terran said.
"You are-", she still didn't know who it was until he revealed it himself.
"Don't you rember your own brat?", Terran smiled while saying that.
"Eh?"
"Brat…?"
"Is that really you?", she was surprised when she asked that.
"Wah-", so new relationship was built all of a sudden which seed fascinating to Shin.
"Yes, it's …", Terran said with a smile.
The witch ran towards him in the sa half wolf and half tiger form and jumped at Terran.
"I missed you!"
"Where had you been?", and like this, the talk started.
Terran revealed everything that had happened and the witch, being no fool, understood everything one by one.
Another hour passed like this in just chatter and backstory.
"Thank you so much master for helping him…", she said with teary eyes.
The witch had started to trust Shin now, at least she trusted more than before after hearing Terran say everything.
"I don't know about revenge…"
"But now I really wish to follow you.", was what she said with a smile.
Although Shin might not know to make others respect him genuinely, his own help and kindness found the way to make others respect him.
"Good to hear that…"
"Welco to the family, Kaily.", Shin said with a brightened face.
"Haha, thanks…"
"Uh…"
"Thanks, master.", she was thinking about what to call when she realized that Alira and Terran had been calling him master.
Kaily wasn't her real na, it was just a nickna that she had received and many had been calling that.
When Shin called that with the intention that she joined the family, it beca a given na and the previous na vanished.
'Ding'
[ You have nad a new beast ]
[ You have a new vessel ]
The Fourth Vessel Of Shin
-> The fourth vessel of Ruler of the Swamps, Shin.
-> Provides 5% boost in all stats.
-> Gives a 30% boost in swampy areas.
-> Can use the skill 'Heal' when the HP drops to 8% to heal itself.
So Shin gained another vessel so quickly.
To make gain a vessel, does Shin only require to na?
Wouldn't that actually make him gain tons of vessels?
Actually no, naming wasn't the only thing that was required to make a vessel.
There was another important thing that was required which would be revealed soon to Shin when he would be put in a dilemma.
Whatever, after getting the notification, Shin showed almost no sign or any other expression because he had already seen those tons of tis.
Of course, he was surprised by the fact that he nad her.
"Ya…", Shin just nodded his head.
And as he accepted her entry to his family, a crest or a symbol got generated all of a sudden near Kaily's shoulder.
"Eh?"
She was surprised by that because she never expected sothing like that to appear.
She felt the change in na too at the sa ti when the crest appeared.
Of course, Terran too didn't expect a faint light that was being emitted from the wolf symbol that was on his forehead.
The cub, Alira, also had a similar symbol on the eye that was slashed – yes, on the right eye, the symbol had appeared.
All three of them started to glow with green light and soon the light subsided.
Neither Shin, nor anyone else had any idea about what had happened, but yes, one thing was sure, they felt a weird form of energy inside them and a strong connection with Shin.
'Ding'
[ You have found four mbers ]
[ Including yourself, you are 5 in number ]
[ You have t the requirent to form a Familia ]
'Ding'
[ Decide a na for your Familia - ]
"A familia?", Shin was surprised to see the new topic.
Of course, he had not once thought about naming his kingdom or family. The system questioned him at the right ti before he could go on while making other mistakes.
"What should I na my familia?", he turned towards Terran and asked that.
The question was ant for others to answer too.
The na of the family was sothing that one should be proud of.
It would be a na that would spread throughout the world so they couldn't possibly have a half-ass na. Also, Shin thought that it was inappropriate to decide on his own.
"How about 'Predators'?", Terran suggested.
Shin looked at him with an awkward expression.
'From master's expression, I can clearly guess what he wants to say – "Are you really suggesting that?" – I better think sothing else.', Terran bowed his head as if he was apologizing and started to think about so other na.
Shin was thinking hard on this too.
He didn't want to change the na later and wanted to choose a na that would be related to him.
'Shishir…'
'That word has 'Shi' from my na…'
'Also, that word actually ans – Frost or Winter!'
Shin actually loved cold things as ntioned earlier so for him, this na seed to be perfect.
"Why don't we na it as…"
"Shishir?", he asked.
Kaily and Terran looked at him while mumbling – "Shishir?"
Well, that na wasn't dominating at all and it didn't terrify anyone with its sound.
Rather, it was funny when pronounced, at least for them.
"Master…"
"That's a bit…"
Both Terran and Kaily were looking at Shin with weird eye expressions.
"…"
To be continued…
