บท 77: Ch. 75 - Officially Hired!

The next morning, Leo opened his eyes slightly as the sun's rays flashed his face, letting him have a feel of the sun's heat.

At the same time, he was met with the system's panel screen, more specifically the Quest function screen.

[New Quest received!]

'What the hell is this, Genesis? I just woke up and now you blasted me with a new Quest? This is new...' Leo yawned, while mentally he was complaining to Genesis. It's similar to having a good nap and suddenly being woken up by your mother to do a house chore.

[I'm simply helping you, Leo. You may not understand now but you will, in the future.]

'I'll wait for that then.' Leo monotonously answered and was about to get up from the bed when he felt something heavy on his chest.

Looking down, he saw Luna's black hair sprawled all over his chest.

"Luna..." Tugging her slightly to wake her up, Leo called out to Luna's name several times and after almost 2 whole minutes of calling her, she finally showed signs of waking up.

"Hm?....Papa, you're back?" Lifting her head slowly, Luna's eyes first darted towards Leo and she asked with a short cute yawn.

"Sorry for being unable to be there with you yesterday Luna." Leo apologized, patting her head on the process.

"It's okay, Papa. Luna forgives you. As long as you play hide and seek with Luna today!" Luna gave a small smile while declaring quite loudly, as if she wouldn't take 'No' as an answer.

"Well what are you waiting for! The last to arrive there will be the seeker!" Surprising Luna, Leo dropped her on the bed and started running downstairs.

It only took a few seconds for Luna to recover and register Leo's words.

"What!? Papa that's unfair!" Not wanting to be the seeker as it is the most boring and less thrilling role in the game, Luna didn't even bother fixing her unkept hair and directly chased after Leo.

That morning, a few early birds witnessed once again a spectacular scene of a small girl chasing after a blind man who constantly taps his cane on the ground, making a rhytmic sound that gathered attention.

"What are those father and daughter duo up again?" The 'big-tittied' auntie, who was busy walking her dog around was also one of the few to witness this scene and she can't help but sigh at the quirk family.

***

Eventually, Leo arrived first at the forest and it was his turn to hide from the grumbling Luna.

In order to appease her 'anger' and so he could also arrive early at his new 'babysitting' job at the royal castle, Leo never bothered finding a good hiding spot, instead he just simply searched for a large enough tree and leaned against it.

Thanks to his bland hiding, it only took Luna 5 minutes of walking to find him.

5 minutes and the game of hide and seek was finally finished.

Back at their home, Leo opened a golden portal and gestured for Luna.

"During the whole day, how about you play with Auntie Ann for a while? I'll make sure to fetch you later at night so we can sleep together." Leo crouched and fixed her unkept hair. Hoping that Luna would accept. After all, he would be staying at Elsa's place for almost the whole day, he doesn't want to leave Luna in anyone's care, his trust issues contributing to it.

He'd rather let Anna, a fellow Black Panther, take care of Luna, and besides, during the whole year, many things have changed in the black panther tribe village, all thanks to him.

Sure there's his Ringer Clone skill but the skill is too valuable to use due to its high cooldown time and not to mention, the distance limit of not being away from the original body beyond 1 kilometer.

It would be better this way.

"Luna understands Papa, there's no need to worry for Luna! Luna is a big girl now! Take care of your body Papa!" After flexing her 'muscles' to Leo, she then planted a soft kiss on Leo's forehead.

Luna smiled and grabbed her miniature duffel bag and walked towards the portal without looking back. In her mind, being away from Leo just for a single day means nothing to her.

Watching her disappearing back, Leo silently chuckled while shaking his head.

'I'm such a bad father, aren't I, Genesis?'

[....There are far more worst fathers out there, Leo. Compared to those, you're already considered kind enough.]

'Wow, you have your way with words. You sure you're not some kind of devil? A succubus or something?' Leo teased, though a small part of him is thankful for the kind words, this is the first time he was comforted like this and he was never expecting it to come from his system nonetheless.

[...Are you still insisting my gender is female, Leo? Do I have to knock out some sense from you?]

'Saying that all while you were comforting me earlier makes you less scary, Genesis.' Leo mentally stuck out his tongue in a playful manner.

[...]

Unfortunately, he received no more response from Genesis, ending their short but fun conversation.

'Well, let's continue this conversation in some other time.' Leo said for the last time even thought he was expecting no response from Genesis.

"Hmnn." Opening her eyes slightly, Elsa saw a familiar ceiling as if she had seen it in the past.

Suddenly, she was snapped back to reality when she felt a weight on her breasts. Remembering what happened last night and how she lowered her guard against Daredevil, who turns out to be the blind guy with a daughter, her eyes widened in realization.

Combined with the feeling of heaviness on her chest, a bad premonition suddenly dawned in her mind.

'D-Did he do s-something last night? I-Is he sleeping with me on the bed right now?' Silently praying in her heart that she's just being delusional while slowly looking down at her chest, she was met face to face with her sister's mouth open and loudly snoring face. Her unkept hair sprawled all across the surface of her chest, some part of her hair are even levitating in the air as if she was electrocuted.

Elsa took a sharp breath, holding her breath, not knowing whether to sigh in relief that she still retains her innocence or laugh at her sister's funny sleeping face.

Moving her hand towards Anna's face, Elsa removed a small portion of her unkept hair from her smooth beautiful face and caressed her cheeks before closing her eyes.

With a soft tug, Elsa engulfed her sister with a warm sisterly hug.

Oh how she missed this.

Hugging her sister like she used to when they used to be children, without having to face any problems.

While hugging her sister, Elsa also noticed a small string of white hair on Anna's head, and flashbacks of what she did to her flashed within Elsa's eyes, fear quickly overtook Elsa's body and she softly pushed Anna away from her, no longer hugging each other.

Even though the frozen Heart curse that she accidentally placed on her was put into halt thanks to a wise old troll, the curse is still on

"Hmnn..." As if Anna doesn't like being away from Elsa's warmth, she silently complains despite being asleep with her hands finding its way towards Elsa.

"Sigh." Seeing his Anna is still being stubborn even though she's sound asleep, Elsa could only endure the guilt in her heart and hug Anna once again.

***

In Agnarr's office, the king himself can be seen drinking his morning coffee once again and reading the script that he wrote overnight, the script that would supposedly expose the malicious deeds of the Duke to the Kingdom of Arendelle.

*Knock!* x2

Suddenly, the door to his office was knocked.

"Come in." Without looking up and still focusing on the script, Agnarr heard the metallic sound of a Knight's armor walking inside and stopping in front of him.

"Your highness! A man outside the gates wanted to have an audience with you!" The knight reported after giving a short salute to him.

"Reject it, I'm busy as of now." Agnarr answered without looking up.

"I'll relay the message!" The knight saluted again and turned around to leave, however his next words surprised Agnarr.

"What the?! How did you get here? You're not allowed here! Who let you in!?" Unsheathing the sword, the knight pointed it at the newcomer.

Looking up, Agnarr's eyes widened in surprise at seeing the familiar figure of Daredevil, wearing his iconic red tight suit except that this time, his face is exposed.

"Hold on! I know him! You may leave now, thank you for doing your job!" Quickly stopping the knight, Agnarr dismissed him.

At first, the knight was confused but after seeing the serious look on his King's face, the knight nodded his head and sheathed his sword back before walking towards the door.

He gave Leo a last look before leaving.

"Well, I'm here now. Am I hired?"

"....Yes. yes you're hired!"
