38 Emergency (1/2)
Just when he had properly put Iiana on the bed, he heard a ruckus around the house.
Walking briskly downstairs, he saw the whole family were looking kinda frantic.
”How can this be??!”
”Those double crossing Sol family!!!!”
”What happened?” He asked. Grand Elder Sei look at him, giving him a knowing look at him which he doesn't understand at first.
”The Sol family suddenly attack three of our branch family estates ten minutes ago. They declared a war against us!” Grandpa Oki said in irritation.
”Then why not attack them back?”
”They hold some of the heads of family as their hostage”
”Coward, they are coward!”hissed Mio. ”They choose the cowardly way.”
”And they shall die, as a coward” said the other elder.
”I am sorry, Kuro but it seems that we had to cut our stay short. We had to go. But we'll come back later.”
Kuro nodded in understanding. Ailee and Miya had woken up, rubbing their eyes.
”What's wrong?” Asked Ailee.
”They're going back”
”So fast???” Miya eyes were wide open now, in disbelief. She look at Ailee in exasperation.
”They don't like this place? Or was it because of us?”
Seira look at both of them in pain. She swiftly envelopes them into her embrace and rain them with kisses.
”Never, my dear. Who would have the heart to hate both of you?. You guys are gift sent from heaven” she snuggled them even closer.
”Then.. is it our mom? She can be rather strict sometimes but we promise that she is not a bad person. She's the best!”
Tooga laughed and patted at Miya that was trying her best to convince them about their mom.
”I am sure she is or this one over here won't fall for her.. but I'm sorry, dear. We have an emergency and we must to go back to settle these matters as soon as possible”
Miya and Ailee face turn to gloomy but nevertheless, they nodded.
”Please come again and visit us. Or better yet, maybe we'll visit you guys later” that prospect suddenly made them excited. When was the last time Shoa tribe had welcome youngling into their family? It was a known and sad fact that Though Shoa had flourish in wealth, fame and status.. they child birth rate had gone down the drain. Not for the lack of trying. It doesn't help when younger generation such as Mio and Kuro won't settle down and build their own family. Most of them prefer solitude and the life of bachelorette which appalled the older generation.
Both of the little girls look at Kuro with their puppy eyes and he look at them, while folding his arms. He was weighting down the pro and cons of bringing them to his family's main house..
A great place to train but dangerous the same.
”Only if you get to level up your beast pet to 20.”
”But, that's like a long long time. Mine is just level 5” said Ailee with exasperation. Miya grabbed Ailee arm as if signalling her to stop. She gave her a few blinks, which He doesn't get.
Ailee eyes widen and then nodded. Miya look at me with her cheeky smile.
”Okay, daddy. Level 20. Deal”
Tooga and Seira laughs at him, as he was sporting a dumbfounded look.
”What just happened?”
”You just got conned by your daughters” scoffed Mio. She walked toward the kids and gave them sweets.
