Chester teleported me back to the sect after some time had passed, and was surprised to find out that almost only 3 days had passed, in contrast with the 5 days I've spent in that dungeon!
When I spent an hour in that dungeon, only 40 minutes had passed here. I cursed at myself when I realized that I could've spent a week training there, and only 4 and half days would've passed.
Weirdly enough, only a few noticed that I've been gone for a few days. Most noticeably was Scarlet, who was quite boisterous with her complaints about my disappearance. She complained about how I wasn't there to cuddle with her, or when she decided to break into my house when she saw that no one was answering my door.
By the way, when she broke into my house, she also kicked down my door, destroying it.
And Alice, my sweet, sweet Alice, was worried about me. Sigh… she was so adorable when she was angry at me for making her worry. She cooked for me after my return, had a talk with me to make me feel good, and tried her best to take care of me. She's such a sweetheart, you know?
Unlike a certain red-head.
Randy though… as usual, he is in his house, experimenting on new ways to create bombs. Either by splitting atoms, or creating grenades capable of blowing up entire mountains.
No way am I getting close to his house. I'd like to be as far from it as possible, thank you very much. I'd like it if I can have my life untouched by such destructive things.
A day had passed since his return, and it was now May 14, three days before the start of the rank battles.
I am currently slacking off, eating chips here and there.
You've got no idea how cool it is to be the patriarch's disciple. I can ask for anything, as long as it's not too big. So, I decided to ask for countless amounts of chips and candies! Turns out, I have an incredible sweet tooth that could devour many kinds of candies at all times! And since I am biologically perfect, my teeth cannot decay!
F*ck yeah! I can eat any candy I want!
But even then, I still brush my teeth every day, as to avoid bad breath.
I sat on the sofa, looking at my stats, smiling very proudly.

Now, you might've guessed why I am happy, but it's because of one of my stats, [Fighting Skills].
Since my trip in the dungeon, I have grown quite skilled in the arts of battle, and I've noticed that. My senses have been sharpened far beyond what I could do before, and my battle instincts seem to have improved, my only evidence being when Scarlet tried to high-kick me from behind and I dodged almost instantly.
Normally, that kick would've connected, but since I am now far more superior in terms of fighting experience, I can pretty much solo 10 Scarlets.
I chuckled as I remember her crashing somewhere after failing to do that kick, "Heh, serves her right," I said.
Currently, I am thinking of getting another skill manual, especially for holy magic. I could get light magic, which can be used to form illusions. Though there are many kinds of magic that can be used to create illusions, light magic is where it all started. You can say that it is the ancestor of illusionary spells, like the Everlasting Hell, which is famous for torturing the mind of a person within short periods of time. If I remembered correctly, the Disciplinary Elder has mastered that spell.
Maybe that's why some people fear the 10th Elder (Disciplinary Elder), with the 9th Elder being his assistant. Remember the red-haired guy who tried to detain me?
I dipped my hand into the bag of chips right beside me, with dozens of its kind scattered around my bed, un opened.
'The sofa is, indeed, the throne for the greatest of monarchs!' I said in my thoughts, munching on some potato chips.
This particular kind of chips is a bit expensive, to say the least. Its price, by what my master told me, is 50 Silver Notes, making it one of the most expensive of all time since it is imported from the Platinum Continent. I'm not going to complain though, it's freaking delicious! And, my master was the one who bought all of these for me, and I can't be any more grateful towards him.
But the thing I worried about was how they managed to get these chips across the sea, which is full of monsters that can rip cities to shreds and tear down empires with a single claw. And there are sea creatures who can use echo-location to track down their enemies, and creatures who can shoot down flying objects with their own magic spells, and the sea has millions of them. By god, how could they deliver goods through the sea? It's literally impossible! Many people may have died trying to get these chips to this continent…
I have dozens upon dozens of these kinds of chips in my room…
Anyway, deciding not to dwell on that fact, I'm not particularly keen on cleaning my bedroom, that's why it's so messy around here at the moment. But I do throw away my trash most of the time since they stink, and I can't have that in my house. But regarding my bed or my stuff, I don't take care of them since they're not that important anyway. I would, though, clean my house when Cordelia is here.
I can't have my sweet, sweet cousin to be corrupted by my bad habits.
Yes, Delia is my aunt and Cordelia is my cousin, I've decided. My family is very confusing, you see. My grandfather, the bastard, is Delia's uncle, and since my bio-mother is that bastard's daughter, that means my mother and my aunt Delia are cousins. And, since Cordelia and I are both offspring of the two women, that makes us cousins.
But even then, I don't know if I'm right or not, and quite frankly, I don't really care.
It's better I don't think about my bio-family, lest I get agitated and try to invade the Rock Kingdom alone, which is a possibility at the moment.
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
I was a bit startled when I heard various knocks on my door, so I stood up and walked toward it. I opened it slowly, and peeked at the small gap made by my door and saw a teen with neck-long black hair, a black face mask, monotone red eyes, and black cat ears. She wore a long-sleeved black qipao dress that reached her upper thigh, with knives around her waist and a headband that had the fire symbol on it.
"Hello, human child. I have come to visit you for I find you a good partner for me in terms of being my lover. What do you say?" She said, dominantly, leaving no way out for me.
I stared at her through the gap on my door, a bit confused, then her words kicked in.
*BANG!*
I slammed the door on her.
