Otherworld Adventure 26 Abnormal, Uncle? 2

Seeing that he had no reaction whatsoever to her uncle's previous statement and instead was thinking about something else, Lucia because a bit disappointed.

'Odd, normally this should have been a flag. The Guild Master finding out our true abilities, forcing us to do some super hard quest and whatnot, but this sure is unexpected.'

It was odd indeed, normally the guild master would guide and recommend promising adventurers, but all he did was tell Cecil to hide his actual strength.

'Maybe has something to do with Lucia, since he is her uncle.'

"Hey, Cel? What're you thinking about?"

"Just about your odd uncle, can't believe someone like him is the Guild master."

"Eh? Uhh, yeah. I've never heard mom or dad talk about him before."

"Figures, I don't think your parents wanted you to know about such an odd uncle, haha!"

"Hahaha, I guess. Let's hurry and eat. We still have to meet up with Scarlet Blaze after this~"

"Yeah."

'But, hiding my actual strength huh'

Cecil already had the thoughts to hide his actual strength. Since just by using his martial arts alone, coupled with the fact he could now integrate mana into his martial arts to some degree.

It was no problem for him to face G-B ranked monsters single-handedly. And this was him being only 14 years old!

This wasn't the only thing he was hiding. On their way to Forest Hill Town, Cecil had asked Lucia to disguise his human features.

So by using Illusion Magic, Lucia was able to disguise Cecil as a fox-kin just like her. The Illusion spell that Lucia used was a custom-made spell created by Mrs. Anna.

It was a one-time cast spell that transformed the target into what the user imagined when the spell was cast.

So right now, Cecil did not look human.

Instead he was a three-tailed fox-kin just like Lucia. He had black triangular fox ears on top of his head. His tails were also black, but the tips were white in color. His pupils however were gold-colored just like Lucia's pupils.

It wasn't anything special like him wanting to be the same like Lucia, but one time he saw his eyes while activating mana sight and it somewhat scared him.

With mana sight active, his black colored pupils had a gold tint and a gold colored ring in his pupils that constantly pulsed, following his heartbeat.

In order to not look weird, he asked Lucia to change his pupils color to be the same as hers. This way when he activated his partial mana sight, the weird change in his pupils wouldn't be so noticeable.

Of course, Lucia took this the wrong way. The small 'good' misunderstanding earned Cecil a little kiss on the cheek from Lucia, which he of course, thought nothing of it.

Looking at the pair, people from Earth would think Yin and Yang.

With the food finally arriving, they quickly put a halt to their thoughts and started digging into their meal.

"Hmm, taste okay. But it's not as good as what Mrs. Anna makes..."

"Haha, Mama's dishes are always the best~!"

As soon as they finished their meal, they get up and pay after which they quickly head towards the town square.

Reaching the town square, they head towards the Monster Hunting Event, but quickly spot Cathy and Tyr waiting by the side of a stall near the Event Stage.

They head on over to them and greet them.

"Hey, Tyr. h.e.l.lo Cathy."

"Hi~"

"Ah, Cecil, Lucia! Finished eating?!"

"He-h.e.l.lo..."

Tyr was as loud as always and Cathy only greeted them with a small h.e.l.lo.

"Yup, so... where's the other two?"

"They saw you heading over so they went ahead and registered us into a party for the event."

"Oh, okay then."

After chatting for a bit, they spot Milly and Miles heading back over to them.

"Hey! Cecil, Lucia! We took the liberty to register ourselves as a party already, you don't mind right?"

"No, it was our intention in the beginning."

"Great!" Milly exclaimed with a huge smile.

On the side, the quiet Miles speaks up.

"The event will start tomorrow at 9 in the morning. We should all head back and finish up anything we're doing. Prepare anything that needs preparing for the event then get a good night's rest."

"Okay then, Lucia and I will go bring food for our pet. We've already prepared everything we needed for a journey before even going to the guild. So, see you tomorrow."

Cecil and Lucia head towards the gate they came in this morning with some barbecued meat that they bought from a stall near the guild building.

Reaching the gate, they pa.s.s by the guards and notice that they are different than the ones that received them this morning. The guards all worked on s.h.i.+ft so the morning and afternoon guards were different.

They reach the ranch they left Silver at. They greeted the ranch master and headed towards Silver.

Silver seemed to have picked up their presence from afar, so he was already waiting for the two by the ranch gate.

"Hey Silv, sorry we took so long. Here's your food."

Silver replied with a happy bark and started gulping down the meat.

After finis.h.i.+ng the meal they take Silver out and hunt monsters in the forest surrounding the town.

When evening approached, they headed back into the town. They find an inn near the town square that the party Scarlet Blaze recommended to them and checked in.

Although they had a small mishap during the check in when Cecil asked for a single room with a double bed and Lucia over reacting to Cecil's order.

After the small episode the two were now sleeping on their beds... or at least they should be, but Lucia had climbed into Cecil's bed and had fallen asleep clinging onto him.

Even after all her embarra.s.sment the entire day. When it was just the two of them, all the reservation in her heart seemed to have been tossed out the window.

Tomorrow they would be joining the Monster Hunting Event with Scarlet Blaze. Cecil and Lucia were both excited at the thought, but that didn't stop them from having their precious sleep.
