Chapter 22: Family Battle

After I woke up I got out of bed and went back to my house. I had money for food, but to tell you the truth I am not hungry. After seeing the insides of so many demonic beasts. My appetite for meat has gone in the gutter. I can see why Luna is a vegetarian. 

I am sure I will get over the disgusting images eventually. I just wanna go home and relax today. Maybe go to a brothel or two. Is the mindset that I have. I need to go after those damn bandits that took Fu Xien. Bring her back to Decomia. First things first is to find out where they possibly took her. 

I will ask my dad and Luna. My father knows about things, Since he is a person of influence. Luna maybe knows things since adventures and information gathering are their bread and butter. Speaking about Luna. I need to go to the Adventuring Guild. I should turn in my jobs and sell the good parts of the demonic beasts. 

I opened the doors of the guild and I saw everyone running in panic. There were a lot of worried looks. I walked in and I heard murmurs of dragon sightings. Oh, crap I think they are freaking out because of me. 

I didn't fly that close to the city. It took twenty minutes to get back into town. I thought they wouldn't notice the dragons. When I got to the front desk Luna ran over to greet me. Her hair was all frizzled up. She actually looked kinda cute with hair that looked like she just got out of bed.

"Sephker I am glad you are safe! When someone said they noticed dragon sightings I got really scared. You were gone for so long." Luna said on the verge of tears. Damn, it all! I need to tell them about my skill. 

Now Luna will know it was an SSS-ranked skill and not a low ranked skill. Well, these are the consequences I have developed since I lied about my skills. I have to let them know about this skill so every time I fly with dragons an uproar doesn't start. 

"Um, that was most likely my fault." I said with sweat rolling down the back of my neck. I am really nervous to talk about my skill. 

Luna stared at me with an awe in her eyes. She then frowned her eyebrows and jumped on her desk landing on her belly. She grabbed my vest below the collar and pulled me forward. She then yelled so loud it made my ears ring.

"Explain yourself! How is the dragon situation your fault?"

I proceeded to tell her about the Card Caster skill. A skill that allows me to summon demonic beasts that are called Monsters. I haven't seen an actual demonic beast in my hand yet. I only call them demonic beasts since explaining what a monster is hard for me. If you ask me I could just call demonic beasts monsters. 

I explained how I could summon these creatures from cards that are in my . The cards that I have floating in front of me are what the skill calls my hand. I did this while doing some actions. I said that summoning a dragon in a building wouldn't be a good idea.

So I did this while summoning a human from Warrior world. I summoned the card and everyone in the room started spreading rumors. Did I enslave him? That is what some are saying. Am I a summoner? In a way I am, but this is more of a cast says my skill information menu.

I can summon Barbara but not everyone needs to know that. After Luna listened and compartmentalized what I could do. She still refused to believe the dragons were mine entirely. She said she would need to see a dragon being summoned before she believed the dragons were my doing. 

So the dragon watch is still up and everyone is alerted. I guess I will show them my dragon summoning later. The monster I summoned, New Recruit, Yogen. Was not happy being seen by non enemies. I guess I should ask my monsters about that stuff. Never would I ever think I would have to ask for a monsters' consent.

 After I traded in my materials and job requests. With the signature of the owner proving I did the job. I received a good amount of pocket change. 10 Gold, 2, Silver, 34 Coppers and 600 Iron Ingots. 

When I left I saw Luna leave through the back door. She was running towards the direction of her moms work. Oh, no this is not good. She is going to talk to Mariella about my strong skill. This is going to be bad. 

When I arrived home the entire family was outside in our front yard. Ziba and Lafker were hurt. I wonder if they were sparring. I walked up to my dad to ask him a question. I stopped after I felt the pressure of a high ranking demonic beast. I turned around to see a smiling Mariella. 

No, still a high level demonic beast. That smile is faking and not even hiding her true intentions. She opened her mouth and I could have sworn I saw souls leaving as fast as they could. 

"Hello, dear Alhpor family. I would like to discuss something. A new skill that Sephker obtained that turned out to be quite a good skill." Mariella said. 

My brother snickered and spoke rudely to Mariella. "You're telling me this pip squeak little shit got a good skill? So what, he has many low ranking skills. He is lucky to have so many, but they are all shit skills." Typical Ferin. Any and all breaths he does. Has to have a negative comment about me. 

"Oh, yes it is rude, young, bed head, acne, brother of his." Mariella the trash talker said.

"What did you say Loli Grandma!?" Ferin said.

I noticed a vein becoming noticeable near her right eye. Yeah, calling someone a small grandma is usually not a smart Idea. I decided to keep quiet since my comment would not be necessary. 

"I said, Sephker obtained a SSS-ranked skill. Were you aware of a family minus one that I care about." I think I like Mariella more now. She is not nice to people who aren't nice to me. When she dropped that information. Everyone in my family made a noise of confusion.
