Capítulo 300: A Cry of Help
"Master, why did you not agree? It seemed like you liked the place."
As soon as Bloed and Regina left the headquarters of [Knowledge Seekers], Regina asked that.
"I liked it," Bloed replied with a wry smile. "I probably would have agreed if I don't have a goal already."
"But I think that is a good place to start spreading technology, master."
"Perhaps." Bloed nodded. "However, [Knowledge Seekers] is a club that focuses on discovering the truths about magic. If I want to accomplish my goal through that club, I will have to reform it completely, and it will take a very long time."
"I see." Regina nodded in understanding. "Will you then form your own club?"
"I'm not sure yet." Bloed shrugged. "Perhaps I'll find a small club and turn it into what I need. It depends on the circumstances."
"Well, I'll support you no matter what you do, master."
"… I know that. Perhaps I would have not reached here if not for you."
"Master…" Regina smiled sweetly. She then extended her hand, grabbing Bloed's hand and looking at him with a shy smile.
Her smile was so beautiful that Bloed was briefly stunned.
"… God, you are so dangerous. I thought my heart would stop."
"… You are learning to please women quickly, master." Regina said with a slight snort, but her cheeks were dyed with a slight red.
It was obvious she was rather pleased.
Unfortunately, their intimate moment was quickly interrupted by an exasperated voice.
"Can you two please stop flirting in public? I feel awkward when I have to watch that… And jealous as well…"
"Hmph. You are just envious master pays more attention to me, demon."
"That is not right!"
"Really? We slept together each night. What about you?"
Liu Ying was speechless. She looked at Regina and gritted her teeth angrily.
"Dammit! Bloed, we need to do that as well, now!"
"... Liu Ying, calm down. It's not something you should decide rashly." Bloed sighed with a wry smile. "Also, did you realize other people are hearing our conversation?"
Liu Ying was stunned. Immediately, she turned around like a broken robot, only to see Aya and Prince Calisto blushing deeply and the bodyguards of Prince Calisto looking away with awkward expressions.
Immediately, her expression beet red.
Fortunately, Bloed was considerate of his girlfriend. He grabbed her hand softly to calm her down and shifted the topic to alleviate her embarrassment.
"Right, what did you do while we were away?"
"Nothing much." Prince Calisto replied quickly. "We just observed the surroundings while waiting for the two of you."
"Nn… Bloed, will you join to [Knowledge Seekers]?"
"No." Bloed replied to the cat girl before looking at the rest of the group. "I don't think that is the place for me. I probably will create my own club from scratch or something like that."
"Really? That sounds amazing! Can I join!?" Prince Calisto asked with shining eyes.
"Of course you can. Although I don't know if you will like it."
"It will surely be amazing if big brother Bloed creates it."
"… Nn. I want to join as well." Aya stated with an enthusiast look.
Bloed smiled wryly. He was a bit overwhelmed by the two beastmen's feelings.
He was about to agree when one of the bodyguards spoke up.
"Your highness, I don't think that is appropriate."
"Hm? Why?"
"Your father asked you to go with the [Beasts Brotherhood], remember?"
Prince Calisto and Aya froze. An instant later, the little prince frowned.
"I will not go there. I don't know anyone there anyway."
"But your highness, the [Beasts Brotherhood] is–"
"It's decided. If I said I will not go there, and I will not go there!"
"Your highness..."
The bodyguard looked at Prince Calisto with a helpless look, however, the lionkin prince did not budge.
Bloed, Regina, and Liu Ying looked at each other with confused expressions.
"Beast Brotherhood? What is that?" Liu Ying could not help but ask.
"It's the club representative of the beastmen in the city." The bodyguard explained. "Actually, most of the beastmen princes and nobles that come to study here join that club."
The bodyguard then explained about the club to Bloed and the others.
Only then he learned that although there was no racial discrimination in this city, the different races were not completely united either.
In fact, each race had a representative club, and these clubs had a kind of rivalry among them. They constantly competed against each other in many ways.
And the beastmen's club was called [Beast Brotherhood].
"Prince Calisto and Aya have to join that club, huh." Bloed nodded in understanding.
"Yes." The bodyguard nodded. "It's not obligatory, but that is how it has been for many years."
Bloed fell deep in thought.
He would prefer if he can be together with Aya and the little lionkin prince in the same club, but he did not want to put them in a tough spot. If they needed to go to that club, Bloed did not mind.
But as though understanding Bloed's thoughts, Prince Calisto snorted.
"You don't need to worry. Neither Aya nor I want to go to that club anyway. We will go with you."
Bloed smiled wryly and decided to stop talking about that for now.
"Anyway, what should we do next? Do we find a place to eat lunch? Or do you want to find a place to stay first?"
"Don't worry about the place to stay, Mr. Bloed." The bodyguard of before spoke up once more. "The king gave us orders to let you stay in one of the kingdom's properties in the city. Prince Calisto and Miss Aya will be staying with you."
Bloed, Liu Ying, and Regina were surprised, but they did not refuse it.
There was no reason anyway.
"Let's go to see it then."
The bodyguard nodded and started to walk. "This way."
However, before Bloed could take two steps, he stopped abruptly.
All of sudden, a powerful feeling of despair, grief, anger, and hatred filled his mind.
At the same time, he felt as though he was about to lose something dear to him.
'Help!' A cry of despair reverberated inside him.
Bloed's expression immediately changed.
For an instant, a trace of hesitation appeared on his mind. However, he quickly gritted his teeth and got rid of it.
"Damn it!"
Clicking his tongue, Bloed turned around and rushed towards the place where he felt the feelings.
"Master?"
"Bloed?"
Regina and Liu Ying were surprised, however, Bloed did not have time to explain the situation.
Looking at each other, the two girls decided to follow after him.
