Chapter 24: Fill It Out

As soon as we got outside, Mei started to complain.

"My head feels funny and big, can I ride on your shoulder? Not like this, but sit on them? I've never done it before, but it looks like fun!"

I let Mei down and looked to Lesha for some help, but that was not a good idea. The look she gave me was so damn mean, that I scowled back at her obnoxiously adorable face that said for me to just give in. That just got me an even brighter smile that ruined my resolve.

"Yes, Mei, you can ride on my shoulders, come here," I said reaching forward, trying to hold my annoyance of it all back.

Mei squealed in excitement and ran to my arms, and my annoyance drifted away. The way she was so excited for something so simple broke my heart; I would really have to work on my attitude, at least for the girls. Everyone else would still feel my wrath, but Lesha was right. I needed to save my anger for those that earned it.

I turned her around before lifting her up and over my head, setting her on my shoulders, her legs straddling my neck. Then I remember and felt that Mei had no underwear on, another shop we would stop by on the way to the dungeon. At this rate, we were going to get home quite late, but maybe I would take the girls out for a meal after.

We started down the street towards my father's work; dad would make us something, but for now, he would have a shield for me. Mei was wiggling and she kept sticking her legs up and partially flashing them. I turned to Lesha and she smiled but started to explain to Mei about making sure others don't see her private parts, and to keep her legs down, or I wouldn't be carrying her anymore.

With that somewhat settled, we arrived at The Forge, and Gastbo was waiting outside, not for us, but just sitting on a crate outside of his shop. He looked over at me and scowled, but then saw Lesha, and rushed back inside, and my father came out right after there was some yelling.

"K! Two days in a row? Do you miss me that much? I'll be home tomorrow night don't you worry! Hey! Who's the little squirt on your shoulders? Are you sick?"

"Oye old man! One at a time, I'm here to make some plate armor orders for us, and I am missing you a lot less with all these questions! This is Mei, she will be staying with us, and I can help out more with food and such. Why would you ask if I'm sick?"

"You can't take a swing at me for this, but, K, you don't really like people...Yet there is a smiling little girl on your shoulders…" James tried to continue, but Mei cut him off.

"Hey, I am twenty-six!"

"Hunh? Really, well Leana will have to get some more baking into you to add a little weight to you."

"I also wanted to ask you if you thought Leana might mind spending a couple days a week with her to teach her to write and such?"

"Her? Pft, as long as she doesn't mind Leana fussing over her and making her try on outfits, BWAHAHA. You know, I think she would love it, considering you were pretty much my fifth son, hehe!" My father laughed at me, but that actually made me feel good even if he was joking.

"Outfits? What are those? Who is Leana?" Mei asked from up top.

"Leana is my step-mother, and she is a really nice lady. Maybe she can tackle your rat's nest without having to shave it all off! Anyways, father, can I go and make those orders? I also need to buy a good shield that would be suited for an emerald to Ruby Class adventure, do you have one?"

"Wait, Ruby? Which one of you...no way, K? Come here! Why didn't you tell your old man!" My dad said, pulling me into an awkward hug with Mei on my shoulders, and then pulled back, looking up at Mei. "How about I show you what I do? Come with me while the girls get what they need, okay?"

I let Mei down and she was excited to go off with him. My father had a way with all kids, and even though he knew she was older, he knew exactly how she wanted to be treated. Lesha came over and took my hand in hers and squeezed, cheering me up a bit more along with a kiss on the cheek.

I took her back with me to the fitting room and closed the door and locked it. I turned back to Lesha, who was about to take her shirt off, but I stopped her.

"No need, you can do that when we get home later, that is, if we ever get to this dungeon. This shouldn't take too long, just hold your arms out for me and I will get your size written down on this paper."

"Size? I can just fill it out, let me see...see there!" Lesha said handing the paper back to me, then I looked at her and then the numbers.

"Well, this actually saves a bunch of time. Let's go talk to Gastbo about my shield and then we will collect Mei from my father, then we can go to the dungeon and pick something from a vendor on the way for lunch. I am starting to get hungry," I said, starting to slide my hand under my shirt and then pulled it back out quickly.

I had forgotten about how cold my hands were, we needed to hurry, I could take some of the girl's blood, but without anywhere for them to point their energy, I would end up the target.

"Okay, let's go, my hands are getting colder!"


Chapter 25: The Blood Queen

After I dealt with Gastbo and got a decent shield for fifty gold, we collected Mei and said goodbye to my father. I was starting to feel the cold now, whatever it meant, it couldn't be good for me, and even my covered skin was starting to get cold. Lesha was getting concerned about my color, and I couldn't blame her, Mei was even behaving and staying quiet; her hand Lesha was holding hands as we walked, I could give frostbite at the current moment.

We stopped and quickly grabbed some BBQ meat sticks then headed straight for the dungeon. We lived and worked on the dungeon side of the city, and I hardly ever found myself even needing to go anywhere else. Not that I hadn't been around the city, this was just the place I spent the most time and...my mind was a wonder, not good.

'Stop messing around, girl. You need to refill or you will go feral, and you don't want that! Pick up your feet!' -Drania.

She was right, the cold was starting to really get to me, and no part of feral sounded good for anyone. I ate my two meat sticks fast, the food was good, but not what I needed. I tossed the sticks in the bin, and then looked at the girls.

"Let's move a bit faster, I need to get into the dungeon before something bad happens. Come girls," I said, starting to pick up my pace, and the girls agreed and started to move at a jog.

The dungeon wasn't that far from the city, but the five-minute jog felt like an eternity. I wanted to run ahead, but then I would just have to wait anyways for them to catch up, if we didn't go in at the exact same time, then we wouldn't be together. That was not what I wanted, I should be able to hold on; I thought the system was supposed to help me, this seemed like quite the disadvantage.

'This is a safe protocol placed in the system for if you are to be captured. You will switch to a mode called The Blood Queen, and then you will turn midnight black, and then kill everyone within your range for thirty seconds. Nothing short of a god could stop you, but the only ones safe from your wrath will be the girls, everyone else will die. Later you will learn to control this, but for now, it is too dangerous and should never be used; if it happens, it should be because it is your last resort. Don't think that being in a dungeon will be alright either, the system prefers human blood over a monster, and a dungeon will not hold you inside.' -Drania.

'So, a bit of a disadvantage.'

'Only to start out with, and you need to be more mindful of your supplies. The last thing you want is to go feral in the middle of the city, or in your Guild Hall. This is your system, you will learn how to use it.' -Drania.

We were at the shimmering wall that was the entrance to the dungeon, and the girls and I didn't hesitate to enter. Once inside, I made sure they were both through the portal and with me, and then I ran as hard as I could ahead. I could see the first room's entrance up ahead, so I redoubled my effort, and charged into the room that had four massive Dire Wolves waiting for me.

As one, they all lept, but the girls were close enough, and I pulled, then everything happened in slow motion. The second the blood hit my tongue, I started to warm up, and instantly all four were pinned together from every angle by trunks of trees a third of the size that hit Healia. Next was Lesha, and ever in slow motion, it was hard to follow her with her blinding speed, as she lopped off the four heads.

The blood didn't spray, instead, this time, each body leaked one red and a thin clear stream of fluid. I pulled them directly into my body, not being able to wait for the balls to form. My body finally filled with warmth again, and the trees dispersed in blue smoke, dropping the husks of the dead wolves.

"K, are you feeling better now?" Lesha was, with still a tint of red in her eyes.

"Much better, now we can go at a normal pace, but you guys did really well! I didn't do much."

Lesha just laughed at me and gave me a shove.

"Oh yeah, nothing? You just didn't make it so we could do that? You're the tank, you rushed them and distracted them, we are the damage dealers. I think you did your job well," Lesha said smiling at me.

"Do I always have to go crazy to make the trees? I mean, it's fun, but can't I grow a tree, just cause I want to? Or does it work only if I'm crazy?" Mei asked, coming up to my side, look at the ground.

"I don't know, but I will find out from Healia since I have no idea how to even use my own magic. Don't worry, we will figure it out," I said while ruffling her hair.

'It is time to create Gobby. Place your hand forward and call out Blood Gobbler.' -Drania.

'That's a cute name, but what is it?'

*silence*

I deserved that, I was the queen of giving people shit for asking stupid questions, and low and behold here I am stepping on my own toes with Drania. Fine, I will summon whatever this thing was.

"Girls stand back for a minute, I am going to try something with some of the blood I just got."

I stuck out my hand in front of myself and called out the weird name, no wonder It had a cute nickname, the first was horrible!

"Summon Blood Gobbler!"
