Food Frist

My stomach made an unhappy noise. I order one of everything on the menu as I had a full wallet for once in my life and I was banking on Benjamin picking up the tab.

Diana was looking at me from the other side of the table. I know I look a mess. I was in the rain. She look as perfect as can be in her tweet suit with the double c logo on the front. I really didn't need to look hard to know that is was a coco original woven with seven color silk.

The set cost more than the revolver and my arrows combine. It was that pricey luxury item that was very functional and useful.

It was a full armor outfit that block most of the blood spells. Something that very few items could claim. Most of us had to make due with tailman and shields.

Despite my rumbling stomach, I didn't rise immediately to pick up the food in my plate in front of me. I looked around the room for a moment.

Murphy's is a famous place both for blood and normals. The normal flock here for the home brew irish beer and we the blood love the place for the security. The mirrors door, the carvings even the seats were arrange into a powerful array that deflects blood spells.

"Look, Gene," Diana said. "I'm not asking for it permanently. I just need to borrow it for a job. I'll be quick. I promise."

I remember that in my first life I let her borrow Hebe. She lost all her tails. I don't think she ever recovered from that job.

My stomach growled again, and I glanced over looking at the empty seat. Her boy was not on time and she wasn't mentioning him.

"You're sure?" I asked her. "This is my familiar you are talking about. One I treat as family and is a bit too young to take big task."

The funny thing is by Nine tail fox standard, Hebe was still too young to be consider mature. So I had a good reason to turn Diana down.

"Cross my heart," she said, doing so.

I frowned.

"I don't know ..."

She laughed at me.

"Oh, come on. It's no big deal. "

I glowered, it was a big deal and Diana knew it. Sometimes, just sometimes Diana remind me of those white lotus in Qidian Romance novels. She was just so stupid.
