Chapter 58 Ren is what?
Lucy woke up earlier and found her dear brother sleeping soundly. It was fun to experience new things and last night was sure very interesting she thought while caressing his hair.
She could still feel his thing inside her as he hadn’t taken it out yet. She didn’t move much and waited for Lith to wake up. Lith woke up after a little more than an hour and he found Lucy looking at his face lovingly with a smile. Lucy kissed his forehead and hugged him. Lith snuggled in her arms and lay comfortably like that for a while.
“So, where are we going today?” Lucy asked after a while.
“To Red Leaver city. We’ll go have fun near the lake and then stargaze later at night at Queen’s peak which is outside Langerhan city.” Lith smiled and said.
“Hmm? Red Leaver city? Are you sure it’s only for the lake?” Lucy squinted her eyes and cast a doubtful look at Lith.
“Not really.” Lith said smiling.
“Then what else is there?” Lucy asked with the same look.
“Isn’t it obvious, big sis.” Lith smiled and teased.
“Wait. You really want to go there for their brothels?” Lucy said in a little shock.
Red Leaver city was famous for only two things. Minerals and brothels. It had the biggest red light area in the whole continent as the city was the richest and most populous.
Lith laughed at her sister’s thinking. He gave her a peck on her lips and then said
“It isn’t for the brothels, big sis. I want to be there in the middle of the red lake and enjoy the view with you. Also we can find a place near the lake and…”
Lith was about to explain some naughty things when Lucy covered his mouth with her hands and said with a red face
“Okay, okay, I get it. No need to talk more.”
Lith simply smiled and got out of bed. He and Lucy both had a bath together and didn’t do anything naughty in it, though Lith still took some advantage. They dressed up and Lith was back in his disguise and was wearing a white shirt and black pant with a black jacket. He wore black shoes and tucked his shirt in and then buckled his belt.
Lucy was wearing a simple black gown and she too was in her disguise. The clothes were simple but it looked elegant on her.
Lith then got Ren out of his ring and patted on his head. Ren looked like a dark golden retriever right now but he knew he would transform into a humanoid form after he reaches Saint rank. Lucy looked at Ren and at Lith who was patting him and asked
“By the way, why did you name him Ren? Isn’t Ren a male name?”
Lith looked at her in a confused way and said “That’s right. I just named him because it felt convenient to say his name like that.”
“No, what I meant was, Ren is a male name whereas the baby wolf you are patting right now is a female. Did you think it was a male from the start?” Lucy asked, bewildered. Had her little brother not known this? She thought.
“What?!” Lith said in surprise.
‘Ren was a female? Wasn’t short dark purple fur indicate that it was a male for a Purple Night Wolf? Did I mistook it? No, not really, Ren still has short purple hair. So why is big sis saying that?’ Lith thought to himself.
“So it was true.” Lucy chuckled at her little brother’s dumb mistake. She then said “so what made you think that Ren was a male?”
“Wasn’t short dark purple hair meant to be only had by males in Purple Night Wolf? See, Ren still has short hair.” Lith explained.
“That is correct but, the one you have right now with you, is a baby wolf. All baby wolf have short purple hair.” Lucy giggled and explained.
Lith was even more shocked now. How did he make such a stupid mistake? He thought to himself. He then looked at his big sister and asked
“I was observing Ren from afar and only noticed the short fur and thought it was a male. I didn’t cross check later for it either. Big sis, how did you know it though?”
Lucy chuckled and said “Isn’t it obvious? The ears are a little more pointy than normal. It’s a trait of a female in Purple night wolves.”
Lith looked at the pointy ears of Ren and then asked Ren
“Ren, are you really a female?”
‘yes, master.’ Ren said via mental transmission. Lith had told Ren that he was it’s master and should be addressed like that.
Lith sighed in his mind. Was it a careless mistake or was it a dumb mistake? He thought to himself.
“Don’t blame yourself, dear. It was a honest mistake. It’s alright. You can still change Ren’s name if you want.” Lucy helped Lith alleviate his guilt a little.
“Sorry, Ren. I thought you were a male. Anyway, how does Rena sound to you? Do you like the name Rena?” Lith asked.
Ren, now Rena, nodded her head giving her approval.
“Good. Rena sounds nice too. Alright, let’s go now.” Lucy said.
Rena shrunk in size and became a baby golden retriever and got onto Lith’s shoulder. Lucy hugged Lith and cast ‘Provincial Jump’ and teleported with him to the Red Lake in Red Leaver city.
Red Leaver City, Nightingale.
In the outskirts of the city was a big Lake which was red in colour due to certain phenomenon. It was very big in size and could have been considered as Sea, had it not been for the world having enormously huge Oceans and Seas. The lake was just an average size lake as compared to the world’s standard but it was beautiful due to it’s red glow in the ever lasting darkness of Vampire continent.
Two figures came out of nowhere into a certain spot. One tall and the other, half the size of the taller figure. There was a small dog like animal on the shorter figure’s shoulder. They were none other than Lucy, Lith and Rena.
“No matter how many times we do Space Jump, it still amazes me that we can teleport to such vast distances on our own and also in an instant.” Lith said to Lucy who was hugging him via his waist, in amazement.
Lucy chuckled and ruffled Lith’s hair. She too knew how amazing it was but didn’t comment more on it. She would’ve liked to brag about her mom, because of whom they got such abilities but she didn’t. She would let Lith himself discover the facts about how great their mother was. He would feel much better that way and it would in turn bring him closer to his family. Those were the thoughts hidden behind her small chuckle which she didn’t say out loud.
They walked towards the lake and found a very amazing sight. In the darkness of night where only the silver-crimson moon emitted it’s brilliance, the lake was glowing crimson. It seemed as if there was a great battle done over it and the blood of the participants had dyed the lake a forever shade of crimson. This creepy colour only increased the charms of the lake to the Vampires who were very fond of blood. The lake was a perfect spot to come and hangout for lovers, friends and family alike.
Though it seemed to be dyed by blood of people, it was in fact red because of a certain natural phenomenon in the lake’s bottom. There was a spot in it’s Central area which emitted the crimson dye due to some unknown reason and made the whole lake red. People have indeed found out about it but because it didn’t harm the water life or the people and it was safe to even consume the water directly, people didn’t bother with it. This lake had been present here since a long long time and many have drunk it’s water and had no problems. Thus, it was deemed safe.
There were boats available for rental near the Red Leaver city to hangout on the waters but Lith and Lucy didn’t need it. They had their own ways to enjoy this place.
They were currently standing at the shore of the lake where behind them was a dark forest with dark vegetation everywhere and in front was a red lake which seemed as if it didn’t have water but blood. This sight along with the abnormal moon made Lith’s heart beat in amazement. He was mesmerized by this scene and he had never thought something so beautiful could exist somewhere.
He had read it online that this place was an amazing spot to hangout but who would’ve known that the comments greatly underestimated the beauty of the lake.
Lucy looked at her little brother’s amazed expression in amusement. Although it was him who made the plan to come here, the roles have been reversed now. Lucy was like a guide who was enjoying the reactions of the tourist visiting the unknown places. She had not been to this place before but the look on her little brother’s face was much more better than the scenery for her.
Lith looked at the scenery and then at his big sister and was amazed yet again. This silver hair and purple eyes beauty seemed like a goddess in the mortal world. If before the scenery felt nice, it felt complete now. He kept staring at her and then he then he thought how beautiful it would be if his mother was here too and they could enjoy it together as a family. He then made a bucket list in his mind to come here again with his mother and big sister.
“Are you going to keep staring at your big sis or can we get moving, dear?” Lucy smiled and said.
“I was amazed by your beauty, big sis. It’s only natural for me to keep staring.” Lith smiled and said.
Lucy blushed a little but it wasn’t visible on her face due to the darkness. She didn’t say anything and took his hand and walked forward on water. She cast a low rank spell that didn’t even need to be chanted or thought for too long. It was a blend of wind and earth element and it created temporary steps for them to walk on water. They walked holding hands for a while and then Lucy cast Short jump and they came at the middle of the lake.
She then cast a low rank spell again and a little piece of land was formed above water which laid there stably without moving. They sat there together without any care. Lucy had her King rank aura released a little and no creatures from the lake dared to approach them.They sat there and happily talked and ate food. They were on a picnic and they were enjoying it.
…
Meanwhile, far away from where Lith and Lucy were.
In a small town in one of the small cities of the Lupin country in the Human continent,
“Young man, I have seen your stars and you are going to die today.”
The old man, holding a flag, showed a carefree smile to the youngster and said that in the voice of a normal old man. The only word on his flag was,
‘Destiny’.
