Divine Protection: The Pride System

Episode 33: Habits In The Morning

The place looked very old, the walls were made of solid wood.

The tables, chairs, windows, everything there is made of wood so it looks very unique.

But, even so, at least the place was still worth living in.

The window opened and sunlight entered the wooden house without permission.

The sound of birds and insects singing in the morning.

The sun has risen to welcome a new day. Today, what good thing is going to happen?

“Meily-chan, make your darkness even stronger!”

“Umm~ It's hard.”

“Ahaha, fight. If you can strengthen your darkness again, then you can hurt me.”

Two silhouettes were seen in the front yard of the wooden house.

One was a little girl with darkness dancing around her and the other was a woman with nine tails shining a bright blue behind her.

This morning, Kizuna and Meily were training together in the forest.

As an experienced person, Kizuna taught Meily how to fight better using her powers.

“Aaah~ This is impossible for Meily.”

Dropping her petite body to the ground, Meily grumbled with breathless gasps.

Seeing that, the tail of nine Kizuna who had been standing with a blue light began to look down with the light that disappeared.

Walking in her perverted temple girl clothes, Kizuna looked at Meily who had fallen on the ground with a tired look.

Sighing her breath, she said in a seductive voice to the little girl.

“Meily-chan, do as directed. Not that Meily-chan wants to be stronger.”

“Hey, stop calling me with the addition of '-chan'. Meily is not a child!”

“Hmmm, instead Meily-chan is still ten years.”

Kizuna tilted her head and closed one eye as she said that in a seductive style.

Hearing something that could not be ignored, Meily jumped from her fall and snapped at the fox woman.

“Meily this year is already thirteen years old! So, Meily is an adult!”

“Ahaha, Meily-chan is really adorable. Alright, we'll continue the exercise.”

“Hey, did you listen to Meily, Kizuna?!”

Something black and dark emerged from behind Meily's shadow and lunged at Kizuna who turned her body.

But, she gracefully dispelled the darkness with her nine bright blue glowing tails.

Seeing that, Meily was completely shocked. But other than that, he was only getting more and more annoyed.

“Look, you haven't even been able to fully control your power and emotions. Meily-chan, need to be trained again.”

“Hmph! Although Meily does not exercise, Meily remains strong.”

As Meily said, even though she wasn't practicing. Meily's strength was already equivalent to a thousand adults.

She is a rare user of Unique Bless, but that doesn't mean she is very strong.

Meily is still a child. He lacked fighting experience, he was too young to be strong.

For example, Meily can not beat Kizuna who is a fellow user of Unique Bless.

Not that he won because he had the power of light which was the natural enemy of darkness.

Meily just lacks experience and strategy alone in fighting. Well, after all the age difference between Meily and Kizuna is also far away.

Between two digits and three digits, there are still many shortcomings of Meily if she wants to beat Kizuna.

Meily's fighting style is also very different from Kizuna's. Meily was too rough in the fight and always carried away with emotions.

While Kizuna has elegance in her battle techniques. As expected of one of the great creatures.

As they continued to fight and train, someone with plain white hair like moonlight continued to look at the two of them from the window of the wooden house.

With a gentle smile, Rogant greeted the morning with a cup of milk coffee.

“Well, Pride-chan. Do you think Meily has fighting talent?”

Sipping his milk coffee, Rogant asked someone. No, rather than being called someone, it was more precisely something.

Rogant asked something inside his head.

Then suddenly the voice of a woman was heard inside Rogant's head.

[Although it is still not yet, if Meily-chan can control her emotions. I think he has potential.]

“... Emotions yes?”

It was obvious it was impossible for Meily, if this was the case.

Rogant is convinced that Meily will always kill whoever upset her.

He even killed someone accidentally. It was obviously impossible for him to think calmly and coldly.

As Rogant thought about it, he sighed softly and drank out his milk coffee.

“Well, at least he's still useful to me.”

[Master is really mean to a little kid.]

“Is that? I just do things for happiness. There is absolutely no crime in it.”

Raising his body from the chair, Rogant walked towards the door of the wooden house.

The moment he opened it, a beautiful forest scene was instantly caught in the sight of his two eyes.

The morning breeze immediately blew and stroked Rogant's brightly glowing white hair,

His soft smile filled with innocence and evil seemed to underestimate everything.

Waving his hand, Rogant called out to the two of them who were still training.

Feeling themselves called out, the two turned their gaze toward Rogant.

Meily looked cheerful and immediately ran towards Rogant. While Kizuna looked troubled, her face flushed slightly.

He had tried to hide his shy expression to Rogant, but when Rogant mentioned his name somehow his heart was always beating fast.

The feeling always torments him, but it seems Rogant doesn't care about it at all.

“Oy, Kizuna. Hurry up, or the food will be cold.”

“Hmm... Y-Well, I'll come, Mr.”

Taking a strange little step, Kizuna walked over to the wooden house.

“Hei, Kizuna. It's not like I told you to call me 'Rogant. You don't need to use formal language.”

“Eh? Umm~ Ta-But..”.

Speaking agitatedly, Kizuna lowered her eyes with a face blushed in embarrassment.

His tail swayed to the right and to the left quickly, his ears stiffening with a blushing red color.

“What's up, Kizuna? Your face is red, are you okay?”

Tilting his head in confusion, Rogant said that without any intention.

However, suddenly the words made the nine Kizuna stiffen, he lowered his face even more.

“Ugh...! Tu-Master, sorry! Looks like I'm already hungry, so can I eat first!”

Because it could not stand it anymore, Kizuna immediately hurriedly went inside the wooden house leaving Rogant outside.

The atmosphere became quiet again, but Rogant was still confused by Kizuna's previous behavior.

He put his thumb and index finger on his chin and made a style of someone who was thinking.

“Did I make a mistake? Kizuna's behavior is a little strange, is she still sad because Reyna died.”

[Master, I think you need to learn more about women's feelings.]

“... Hm? I'll try.”

Grunting softly, Rogant stepped into the wooden house.

He closed the door slowly and walked towards the two people who were already sitting at the dining table.

Luxurious food that has been prepared Rogant using materials from another world is located on the dining table neatly.

There are a variety of foods that Rogant makes. There is milk, bread, rice, miso soup, and grilled fish.

Rogant nodded in satisfaction with what he made. Although he rarely learned to cook, now he is great.

Well, at least the food falls into the category of foods that can be eaten.

“Alright, happy dinner~”

Sitting halfway between Meily and Kizuna, Rogant picked up his chopsticks and devoured his food.

Her feelings were filled with happiness as she ate them little by little, others also ate them after Rogant.

“This is delicious.”

“Really? Well, thank goodness..”.

“Umm~ Y-Yah.”

Getting a gentle smile from Rogant, Kizuna turned her face away with a face that blushed in shame.

However, other than that, there was a faint smile on her soft lips. He was happy to be on Rogant's side.

While Meily greedily continued to eat her own food ignoring the rom-com scene that had just happened.

Finishing their entire meal, Rogant sighed with satisfaction.

Others are satisfied too. Kizuna neatly arranged her cutlery, while Meily still remained a mess.

However, Kizuna stood up and cleaned the dirty dishes belonging to Meily and Rogant.

“Yeah, I'm sorry for bothering you.”

“It's okay, Sir. I also like to do it.”

“Is that? Can do something you like it's good.”

Kizuna's eyes widened in astonishment, she immediately regained her senses and thought of Rogant's words.

Back when she was a prostitute, she never did this at all.

He simply cannot do something he likes, his duty is only to serve and serve the men.

All his daily life is also always taken care of with his servants.

So he did not expect himself to be this happy while doing the task that the servant should have done.

A happy smile was seen on his smooth and snow-white face. Red also adorns her beautiful face.

Warm happiness soon flowed into her, with Kizuna's spirit going to carry the dirty dishes and wash them.

After finishing washing, Kizuna returned to the dining table again. But this time the atmosphere changed.

The air is getting tense, Kizuna has trouble taking a breath in the room.

However he was already used to this kind of atmosphere, so he immediately with a serious gaze walked towards the dining table.

Meily with a seductive smile played around in her chair, while Rogant just looked at her gently.

Kizuna took a breath and sat back at the table gracefully.

Seeing that everything was gathered, Rogant nodded with great satisfaction.

He turned his gentle smile into a mysterious smile filled with happiness.

Squinting his eyes, Rogant moved his lips stringing up a few words.

“Alright, give me all the information you have about >Temple of Life
