Capítulo 34: Promise
The following morning, Ren went to Lexie's house.
Like her Moon Entertainment House business, her house was also located in the Tacend region.
It was two hundred meters from her Moon Entertainment House business.
After stepping into the living room, Ren was startled.
He was not shocked because he saw three of her subordinates standing behind Lexie.
He was surprised because he had seen one of them before.
Angeline Roach, the top auctioneer of the Moon Auction House!
Of course, he did not show it on his face and sat in front of Lexie calmly because he needed to maintain his image.
'Is she lady Lexie's subordinate too?'
A question suddenly popped up in his mind.
'Wait.'
He suddenly remembered that the auction house and the entertainment house had the same name, Moon.
'I see. So, the Moon Auction House is also Lady Lexie's business.'
Angeline was standing behind Lexie like a bodyguard, so he believed the Moon Entertainment House and the Moon Auction House belonged to Lexie.
"Hmm?" Angeline looked at Ren.
Like him, she was also surprised when she found out that the person who would go to the forest with them was Ren.
Even though they had never talked before, but she had seen him once because he went to Moon Auction House yesterday.
'Isn't he that young man from yesterday?'
She remembered him because he had the appearance of an angel.
However, she did not show it on her face and only glanced at him because she needed to maintain her image, too.
"They are my subordinates. They will go to Framingburns forest with us." Lexie introduced her subordinates to him.
The beautiful lady with black hair and red eyes was Julia Shelton.
The attractive lady with pink hair and light blue eyes was Angeline Roach, and the sexy lady with short red hair and blue eyes was Mia Watts.
They were Elite rank awakeners and her trusted subordinates. They had all lost their families, and Lexie took them in when they were ten.
Even though their status was master and subordinates, Lexie always treated them well.
She even always treated them like her family.
This was the reason why they were willing to risk their lives for her because she was their home.
"I see," he responded.
"Have you prepared everything?" Lexie inquired.
"Yes." He responded, "I'm ready to go anytime."
When Lexie was about to say something, Luna entered the living room with a happy face.
The atmosphere immediately became more lively, and everyone smiled softly at Luna, including Lexie's subordinates.
'Hmm?'
Lexie and her subordinates were stunned when Luna approached Ren and sat on his lap.
Not only them, but Ren was also shocked.
Of course, he was thrilled.
A cute little angel was sitting on his lap, so his heart throbbed with happiness.
"It seems like Luna already likes you, Ren." Lexie said Luna had never acted like that to anyone before.
Luna was not even close to all of her subordinates.
She only wanted to play with certain people even when they gave her candies, as if she could distinguish between truly good people and those who pretended to be good.
Ren retrieved a rainbow candy lollipop from his space ring and gave it to Luna.
"Luna, big brother has a lollipop for you." Ren bought a lollipop before traveling to Lexie's house because he remembered Luna after leaving the Gentle Star Hotel.
"Thank you, big brother." Luna took the lollipop happily.
Lexie's face blossomed into a smile when she saw her niece's happy face.
'I hope nothing bad will happen to him later.'
Ren could make her niece happy, so she did not want him to die.
"Big brother, are you going to Framingburns forest with auntie Lexie?" Luna asked as she licked her lollipop.
"Yes. We will get a magical herb to cure your disease." Ren gave an honest answer because he thought Luna had already known everything.
"Can you promise me one thing?" Luna uttered.
"What is it?" Ren asked curiously.
"Auntie Lexie is my only family, so I want big brother to protect her. I don't want something bad to happen to auntie Lexie." Luna loved her aunt very much, so she did not want something bad to happen to Lexie.
Lexie was touched by Luna's words, causing a soft smile to spread across her face.
'Luna…'
She knew her niece loved her, but hearing it directly from her mouth made her happy.
"Don't worry. Big brother will protect her and won't let any magical beasts or bad people hurt her." Ren was not lying when he said this.
As someone who was hired by Lexie, it was his duty to protect her and complete the mission.
Luna raised her left little finger. "Promise?"
Ren intertwined his left little finger with hers. "Promise."
Right after his voice stopped, a notification popped up.
[Ding! Host has made a promise to Luna. Get the Purple Moon flower and return with Lexie safely. Upon completing the quest, Host will be rewarded with 70 points, 70 system exp and one random card.]
Unlike usual, Ren only glanced at his system before finally playing with Luna again.
"Auntie Lexie, big brother said he would protect you later." Luna uttered.
"I heard it." Lexie smiled softly at her niece.
"Big brother, I will give you auntie Lexie if you can protect her and get the magical herb." Luna said shocking things while licking her lollipop.
Ren almost coughed upon hearing her words.
As for Lexie and her subordinates, they widened their eyes in shock.
However, Lexie and her subordinates did not say anything and only stared at Ren as if they were waiting for his response.
Black lines formed on his forehead when he noticed their gaze.
'Hey, stop looking at me like that. I'm also surprised, you know?'
He did not know what to say, so he said nothing.
"Young miss, you should not say something like that." Julia spoke abruptly.
"Why? Big brother is a good person. If he can protect auntie Lexie from bad people and magical beasts, that means big brother is a powerful person. Auntie Lexie will be safe forever if I give her to big brother because, with this, no one can hurt auntie Lexie." Luna was only ten, so her train of thought was still unique.
"Hehe." Lexie could not help but giggle after hearing Luna's words.
'Everything about my niece is so cute.'
She said in her head.
Lexie's subordinates could only sigh and shake their heads.
'My young miss is really something.'
They could not do anything about it, so they said nothing.
After talking for several minutes, it was finally time to go to Framingburns forest.
Lexie ordered thirty people to protect Luna; ten people protected her openly while the rest protected her from shadow.
"Big brother, don't forget your promise." Luna shouted as she waved goodbye.
Ren nodded his head as he waved goodbye to her.
After Ren and the others slowly disappeared into the distance, Luna mused, "Big brother, please be safe and protect everyone."
