Scarlet
Im quickly yanked out of the crazy ladys arms by my bodyguards who pull into their midst while surrounding as Vincent says with a hint of warning in his voice, Clan Head Amaterasu, please keep your impulses under control.
The woman pouts at for a mont before turning her gaze to the guard, the gaze shifting to a cold one in the process that has shivers running down my spine. And when she speaks this ti, I swear I hear thunder striking sowhere the mont the first word leaves her mouth, Duke Vincent Lacroix de Argus, I very well understand the consequences of going too far. Please mind your words when youre speaking to . She then turns her gaze back to , softening again in the process as she continues, And I know very well that I cant have the Princess, no matter how much that pains .
I feel a shiver run down my spine. Again.
This woman is even more terrifying than her daughter. Can I go choose a different clan now?
They would take that as an offense, Tar comnts, sounding slightly frightened himself.
Right. Of course they would.
And offending the woman who is even stronger than my own mother is not a good idea. Not as strong as Leonidas though, nor anywhere near as strong as Gramps.
Also, the leader of the Succubi Clan is only about a couple dozen levels below her anyways, Tar comnts, giving pause for a mont. And as for the oni clan, here if the demons lose control to their instincts all you have waiting for you is being hugged and treated like a dress-up doll. Over at the oni clan you could be killed if they lost control of their Wrath. Like that arachne did before.
Ugh. Youre right.
Doesnt an I have to like this.
Maybe I shouldve gone to a different continent after all
The ghouls would eat you if they lost control, and the arachnae live in spiderwebs, Tar continues, crushing that thought. And unless you want to live in magma-filled volcanoes, I dont suggest the mindeaters. Those demons tend to live in caves.
Yeah, I doubt the mindeaters would be very happy to help anyways considering that it would interrupt their sleep.
Your Highness, it is lovely to et you, Raiden Senior says with a terrifying smile on her face. And its only now that I start paying any attention to her attire, which is kind of like a cross between Japanese traditional clothing and armor.
Not sothing I expected to see on Tartarus, thats for sure.
I put on a serious face as I nod and return her greeting, I appreciate you letting stay here, and you letting use your Clans hunting grounds.
Her smile grows wider, and she spreads her arms out as if welcoming in for a hug, but doesnt approach, instead just saying, Why, of course I would help a little cutie like you, Your Highness! She closes her arms again, crossing them under her chest as she tilts her head. And dont worry, I wont let any of my little kits lose control of their Greed. You have my word.
Raiden Junior clears her throat, bringing both of our gazes to her as she says, Excuse mother, but I will be handling the Princesss wellbeing in the palace and the other clan mbers. There is no need for you to step in yourself.
The two then start staring at each other with smiles on their faces that look a tad bit too forced, making glance at Vincent and Seraphina, who are standing in between and them, the two of them both frowning. But they just mouth later without giving a hint at whats going on.
I look back at the Raiden duo again before focusing on Raiden Junior, whose smile has returned to normal again, no longer seeming forced.
Why do I get the feeling this mother-daughter pair doesnt like each other?
Well, it would certainly explain why the daughter of the head of the Kitsune Clan is acting as the Demon Kings head maid, Tar comnts, making subtly nod my head in agreent.
I return my gaze to Raiden Senior to find her staring at with that creepy smile of hers again. One that looks like a mothers smile, but with a bit of greed and so longing mixed in. And I cant help but notice her hand twitching slightly.
Okay, yeah, the other demon clans have it worse in terms of their curses.
Although why do I get the feeling she thinks of as a pet of sorts? Or a plaything that she wants?
Because she probably does, Tar says, almost making grimace. But I hold it in. She clearly thinks youre adorable, and judging by the staff in the building
Right. All of the staff mbers were cute and young looking girls. Not a single older looking person in the castle that we passed by.
Although I just kind of thought that was because of coincidence. Since all Class II and above humanoid beings improve their appearance to what they and reality believe to be perfection for their body.
But the fact that theyre all cute girls without any that arent cute in particular.
Guess we found her Greeds fixation, Tar mutters, making wish that I didnt look as I did.
Am I really cute though? I never really thought of myself as cute.
Cool, definitely. But not cute.
Tar snorts in my head without saying anything.
Hello?
He still doesnt say anything.
I hold myself back from crossing my arms under my chest and frowning. Specifically due to the pervert staring at .
Well now that greetings are over with, Raiden Senior says with a light clap of her hands, apparently noticing that and Tar are done talking considering her repeated looks towards the tanuki. That or she is just interested in him too since he is rather cute. A thought that has the tanuki shivering slightly on my shoulder. Lets head over to the hunting grounds, shall we little one?
Damnit, she thinks Im cute because Im short, doesnt she?!
Scarlet Tar mutters, only to sigh and not say anymore.
Wait, so thats not it?
He doesnt answer.
