The soft, golden rays passed through the window, illuminating the dark room, welcoming a new day, and forcing awake.
’What a wonderful day.’
No nightmares, no hidden truths, and no strange man entering my dreams. Yeah, it was indeed a wonderful day.
Selene was right behind , sleeping peacefully without a worry in the world.
I smiled as I rembered my confession. ’It was better than I expected it to be.’
After telling her about my ability, she surprisingly didn’t show the reaction I expected. Instead, she was excited and asked many questions about my spatial awareness and what it could do.
It was either she loved so much that she trusted blindly even in the sensitive matters... or Aria was a genius!
Maybe a mix of both, all I did was repeated everything that Aria said in my head.
’Wait, today is Saturday, right?’
I suddenly rembered sothing as I checked my bracelet, and indeed, it was Saturday.
My expression turned grim.
Seraphina and Silas were supposed to visit today, but unlike the last ti, Aria wasn’t coming with them.
I had no choice but to rember how Silas knew that I killed soone, which made a little worried about today’s eting.
For the past few days, I kept thinking about sothing to say, any excuse that could save from that, but nothing ca into my mind.
I could only hope they’d ’respect’ my privacy and let the matter go, though it was unlikely to happen.
’Well, there is nothing I can do at this point.’
Imdiately, I teleported away, leaving Selene alone in the bed and going to the kitchen. My plan was making sothing delicious to make them forget about everything else.
As I was busy making waffles, I couldn’t help but give a glance at the red coffin in the corner of the kitchen.
Glutton and I tried many tis to understand the chanism of the coffin and the runes inscribed on it, but we couldn’t even find anything similar in the library.
Of course, we could have copied the runes to test them, but we’d be stupid if we really tried sothing like that. Sotis, an unknown rune can be dangerous.
That was also why I didn’t do anything with the cube that I took from Taigo. But now that I knew a potential truth about Lunara and the governnt, I started to feel more urgency to find a way to understand these runes.
I wasn’t planning to fight her, but to escape if I ever needed to.
A few minutes later, there were 5 plates with delicious waffles on them in front of .
’Now, for the top.’
I smirked as I took sothing special out of my storage.
In my hand, I held a small box filled with small, juicy, red fruits, their appearance was close to that of blueberries. They were called bloodberries.
Only judging by the na, it was obvious that they contained blood. I was surprised to know that so trees had blood on them, but, well, it was a magical world, so I should have expected that.
[Cough... can’t you buy so of them later?]
Hearing Glutton’s request, I refused imdiately. Did he think they were cheap?
I placed the bloody fruits on top of 4 plates, and put 4 blood cups beside them. For the fifth one, I put strawberry juice beside the waffles, and so fresh strawberries on top.
With everything ready, I went to the living room and found Selene already waiting for with sleepy eyes.
"Good morning..." Selene yawned softly before her eyes landed on the waffles.
She squinted her eyes. "You got used to blood rapidly."
Placing the plates, I shrugged. "You may understand if you have a vampire tongue, as well."
I waited patiently until she finished her food. Noticing my silence, she frowned. "Is there sothing you want to say?"
I nodded. "Sorry, but... can you leave for a few hours? There is sothing I want to discuss with my family. I don’t know if they will be comfortable with you in the suite."
Obviously, I didn’t want her to be here in case I suddenly got another sudden punch on my face. Although Aria said she wasn’t coming today, Seraphina and Silas might have so shared genetics.
I even drank painkillers... just in case.
Selene looked at in a daze for a mont before nodding in understanding. She smiled and said: "It’s okay, in fact, my father told that he is coming back today, so I think I’ll have a private family eting, too."
As she stood up and went to take a shower, I stayed looking ahead in daze.
’Kyle is coming back?’
I imdiately rembered the wish he promised to give, and now, I felt more urgency to ask for it.
....I also felt a little grateful that I had to et my family today. I could imagine Kyle cutting my head the mont he saw beside Selene.
But wait, when did he tell her that he was coming back? Did he use an illusion, sohow?
[I suggest buying another bed.]
Hearing Glutton’s suggestion, I nodded in agreent. Maybe it was finally the ti, I was rich enough now to easily buy a bed.
As Selene dressed in a normal outfit and stood before the door, she waved to and opened it.
Just then, she found Seraphina and Silas standing as Silas said: "Oh, little Selene? Are you going sowhere?"
Selene nodded. "Yes, I’ll leave you have your private eting. I know that you barely spoke to each other last ti, so I can understand that you didn’t explain so sensitive things yet."
I watched silently as Silas smiled and Selene passed between them going to the elevator. Just then, Silas’ eyes landed on .
He went inside with Seraphina and closed the door, then, a red barrier ca out of nowhere, covering the entire room.
I stomped the ground lightly, and using my spatial awareness, I noticed that the sound couldn’t leave the room.
I sighed inwardly as I forced a smile. ’Couldn’t they at least start eating before doing that? I worked hard to make the waffles!’
Silas and Seraphina sat on the other side of the table, then finally, Seraphina opened her mouth:
"My lovely grandchild, I stopped Aria from coming with us to confirm sothing... did you kill anyone?"
’Fuck that!’
Of course they would ask about that imdiately, why wouldn’t they?
I stopped smiling, my expression turned cold and indifferent as I calmly answered:
"Yes, so what?"
