Soul Monarch: The Eclipse Feast Online

Small Details, Departure

Fixing my head that was still a little smoky over what Yuma said. I refocused myself on the two people before me now, the party who would later become the Potchi Shop representative to keep in touch with me constantly.

Yes, they were the ones who were together with Yuma before. And as for the problems that might arise because of Edenwood, I will leave it to myself in the future.

They are both human. Yeah, I guess that was obvious even though their appearances were opposite each other.

One is the person who looks like what people would think when they hear the word butler. Looks aged in the fifty year span with similar features to Yuma —had jade eyes and bluish brown hair.

Maybe he's from the Botin family, huh? Moreover, he was the one sitting together with Yuma earlier.

The other, he was a young man. Quite tall and athletic with black eyes, completely black with short bright blonde hair with fair complexion. Well, he looks like an Asian-european blaster.

And also .. okay, I don't know his name. But, he was the first to resist the attack Melg (or Spenta who possessed his body) at that time. I don't know the reason why he's also here but could it be like some kind of promotion?

Yes, he himself looked quite nervous to the point of breaking out in a cold sweat. Maybe because I'm not used to it.

"Alright Miss Dirae. Me, Hold Botin hope to be able to maintain a good relationship with you."

"I am too."

And ...

"S-I Tian Rinum will take care of you Miss Girae!"

... He finally introduced himself. Yeah, with nervousness. Very nervous.

"Yes, you don't have to worry too much, do you?"

"Good."

No. gabe. You're still very nervous and stiff to know.

Well, we discussed a few small things, more like a small talk before he handed me an object.

That's pretty thin. It might be almost the same as the card containing Melg's previous status but, it seems like this isn't something like that.

"This is a contract card from the Botin Family. You can show this card when something happens involving the Potchi Shop in the future. And if there is an urgent matter, you can contact the contact listed there," explained Hold.

Well, from its function it seems that this can be proof that I have a relationship with the Botin family and ... well, this can also be something of a mobile phone kind right?

Has the epoch of enlightenment reached this stage?!

In addition, it seems that Hold will replace Melg's position to take care of the shop in the Houra City branch. And yes, I think the reason why a member of the Botin family to take care of the branch in this small town itself is our existence, the players (indestructible).

With the number of new players continuing to grow along with the popularity of EFO, the interest in the early city also rose. Yes, not only between fellow players but also in the eyes of the Residents.

Like how a family whose activity is increasingly massive to recruit new members.

Be it Familia founded by players (dominated by professional clubs from the real world) or Familia owned by Residents. Yes, however, a player can continue to perform dangerous missions without worrying about their lives.

Something that the Residents cannot do and this is certainly a potential resource.

And with the Familia system where a Familia can not only be chaired or established by a player but also a Resident, it also pushes the competition to another level. Yes, Familia itself is a concept that has been around since the beginning in EFO so it's natural.

Well, I don't want to be bound by anything for now. Just wanted to play according to what I wanted so I didn't know in detail about how the Familia worked.

Then—

"N-Miss Dirae. From now on let me will take care of you,” Tian said firmly.

"Eh?" Why did this happen? And also— "I don't think this is necessary, huh?"

"If you say like that Tian will probably be put away. For whatever reason, we were unable to make him stay in his position for having pointed the sword at a manager he was supposed to protect."

"Yes, did even the previous case not go into exception?"

"It's a pity not,”tandas Hold. ”For his other colleagues may still be able to survive, but for him who immediately acts without hesitation. They decided not to defend it."

Uhh, is this the reason why he was so nervous that he broke out in a cold sweat? Not because of the promotion but Karen risked being let go (fired) according to my decision?

Okay, because of what I achieved because I was able to survive from before, then—

"alright. Tian, you can work for me."

"Thank you, Miss Dirae."

Well, whatever it is, it's just a reply from me. I don't want to be happy above other people's suffering okay? Especially if he is the one who has helped me.

Yes, once again. Tian could relatively be said to be handsome to the point that some female-dominated people occasionally glanced at him, but ..why was he just watching me from afar? Maybe 100 meters away?

You know, I feel like he acts more like a stalker than a guard, okay?

Well, then it's better to go to Ova's now. I thought when I turned. Sure Tian followed me and—

Brak!

I slammed him on the floor as soon as I entered.

"What's going on?!"

"No. It was just me but you were too nervous and stiff, right?"

"Th-that ...."

Alright. I asked and borrowed a room on Grandpa Ova before dragging Tian along with me. He told her to sit on the floor while I picked up a chair and observed her once more.

"Look at me" I said a little coldly (though my tone of voice really did not change).

Making Tian comply immediately before he turned his face back with a cold sweat that continued to pour out. Even his body started to tremble even though he seemed to be trying to hide it.

So—

"Tell me what you think of me."

Well, I think his behavior all this time is definitely not because of just being nervous but ....

"Are you afraid of me?"

Right on target? I thought as I looked at the little moves he made. I don't think I'm wrong about this.

"What could make you that scared of me?" ask me directly.

But before that, is there any good reason to be afraid of me?

Well, I'm not a creepy figure .. okay, forget it. I have a Little Monstrosity Title that declares me a little monster.

Even so, at least I have never acted strange or scary ... or maybe not? When I spoke to Megaera could I be seen talking to myself, huh?

No. gabe. No. gabe. No. gabe. Nah!

I was completely normal according to the standards set by myself so it was wrong. Hahahaha, that's wrong, isn't it?

I kept giving him a sharp look and not letting him run away while I mentally kept falling. Please tell me the reason immediately.

And finally ...

"Wings."

... He put out his first word.

"A-you. Miss Durae, you're not a People are you?"

Hoo. So that's the reason?

I was a little curious about who brought me to the treatment room because she should have known about the wings I had. However, news of it has not spread until now.

I smile. Think of a few small things before slightly widening the two pairs of wings on my back. Showed it.

Well, both of them are quite small but it managed to make Tian's pupils shrink quickly. Whether it's out of surprise, fear or other emotions I don't know for sure.

But there is one thing that is clear.

"You're right, Tian. I'm not a People."

"L-Then what you ..." Tian held his breath while his heartbeat could even be heard. Ticking up quickly before saying—

"...Monsters."
