Chapter 192: Orphanage visit (2)

3rd person view

"Greetings, your Majesty" One of Cordelia's friends greeted

"No need to be formal" Queen Ziya responded "You are my daughter's friends, you can address me normally"

"Cordelia is apparently visiting an orphanage with her boyfriend and her mother"

"Good, it seems that arriving early isn't a mistake" Ziya commented

"We aren't just a normal wealthy family Albert" Count Golds said "It is now time for you to know the family secret"

He then pulled a book and opened a secret passage.

"We know about this secret passage" Aenon said "But we never explored it"

"Well it is now time" Count Golds responded "You are at the right age after all"

"If you have children, will they be vampires, humans or a water spirit like us?" Marella asked

"Oh I get why Cordelia was blushing earlier, you were asking her to have a child, weren't you?" I facepalmed "Let me guess, you see your friends have grandchildren and you got jealous, am I right?"

"Very perceptive" Marella nodded "So when are you going to have one?"

"We're not at that point yet, so let's not discuss this"

"Would you all like to stay for snack time?" The caretaker asked "The kids would love it if you stay for a bit further"

"Sure, I don't mind at all"

*****

The caretakers then brought the children and us guests a lot of snacks.

"Wow, dragons eat cookies too?" A kid asked in amazement

"We can, we just usually don't" Damon replied "Here I got more in my spatial storage, and it's just as delicious as the ones the caretaker makes"

"The kids are more energetic than I thought" Cordelia commented

"Well kids like these always tend to look for the bright side, life goes on before you realize it. So you gotta grow up and be mature faster than the others since life doesn't revolve around you, if you don't move on, you'll be left behind with no one to help you."

- 'Life doesn't revolve around you' - Dabria repeated mockingly -That's rich, especially coming from a self-claimed protagonist-

-Touché-

-But it did make him sound like one for a bit. Ow- Siege was still getting his fur pulled

"Wow, you really are like a prince" One of the kid said "You sounded really mature for a moment"

"What? I am a prince"

"We know, you just don't act like one" a vampire kid said "You act like one of us"

"But this is how I always act"

-Well that's the opposite of how a vampire prince would act- Ace pointed out

-Yeah, they're supposed to dignified- Dabria added

-Surprised that they made you prince?- Dabria asked

-Yeah-

-A man mentally in his 30s but acts like a child, a true protagonist alright- Damon chuckled

"Don't worry, I also don't act very princess-like" Cordelia reassured

"Oh I hear a lot of voices" I said as I focused on the sound "Heavy amour, and a lot of chatting"

I then used my eyes to see a bunch of life forces heading our way. One life force was in the middle protected by the rest.

"Say, does the queen like to come earlier than schedule by any chance?"

"Ah Ziya, long time no see" Marella then greeted her with a hug

"Marella, how nice it is to see you" the queen said as she hugged her back "You look well"

The 3 friends of Cordelia's were surrounding Perseus. As a 3rd-person view narrator, I would love to describe them but the author is too lazy to write out the details, he said 'wait for the anime'. So there's green hair, black hair and pink hair. I really don't get paid enough for this, so I'll go along with it.

| That's because I don't pay you at all |

Yes and you are totally not locking me up in your basement.

| That's what I like to here, you'll get a half slice of pizza today |

Help me.

"So this is the boyfriend?" Green hair leaned into Perseus "I like his dragon, Damon, better"

"Come on, , he's not that bad looking, I'd give him a 7.5 out of 10 when I saw people's drawings of him" black hair said "But I'll make it an 8"

"What?" Perseus looked confused

"You should make it a 10" Pink hair argued "How many people do you know would be able to bond with a dragon or a phoenix, much less, both of them at the same time. Besides his phoenix is kinda cute too"

-My bonds are more popular than me...? But I'm the protagonist!- Perseus shouted in his head

-Deal with it- Siege responded -Ow, I really want to eat these kids, Eliza's hands are rough but at least she does it lovingly, these kids are just torture-

-I like these kids, they are very gentle- Ace said as he was being played with by the children

"He's the boy?" The queen asked

"Yep" Marella answered "He has a great future ahead of him, as long as he uses his powers wisely"

"I heard about his strength, and from the looks of it, you already approve of him"

"Indeed I have" Marella nodded "His past is even more extraordinary than you think"

"Coming from a seer, that's high praise" Ziya commented "You usually would give out a rant about it, is there something holding you back?"

"I would be erased from existence if I do so" Marella laughed "Even so, I barely know his past since I'm not allowed to know"

"Who will? The boy?" Ziya asked shockingly "His bonds or his parents?"

"No, someone else of very high power" Marella corrected "Even the boy and his bonds isn't powerful enough to compare. That includes Neelofar's guardian too, she would be dead in a heartbeat"

"You saying that as if a god is going to smite us all" Ziya laughed

"Well they sure are powerful as one" Marella laughed along nervously

-I'm listening- Nova said telepathically in her head -I maybe a remnant, but do not underestimate the power of a god of life, I have giveth and I shall taketh-
