“Maybe, it was a misunderstanding” Said Hex.
“I hope so” Said Aurora.
“He is really bad at showing how he feels after all,” Said Morrie “and that's coming from me”.
“We are meeting them at that taco shop right?” Asked Allison.
“Yeah, speaking of that what is the taco shop called anyway?” Asked Raven.
“No idea” Said Scarlet.
“Anyone know?” Asked Aurora.
Everyone shook their head. They walked to the taco shop with Athena as a guard. Aurora could see the crowds of people and found Atlas holding a hamburger.
She walked up and asked “Why do you have a hamburger?”
“I got it from Not a taco shop” Said Atlas.
“What” Asked Morrie.
He pointed at the sign and said “It's called Not a taco shop, they sell hamburgers but I just bought a bun”.
“Who wants to go to a park?” Asked Athena.
Her golden hair making her eyes look like sapphires in a sea of gold.
“That would be fun” Said Everyone.
Aurora looked at Lucius and felt a bit of joy and sadness. She walked beside Hex and Scarlet. They got to the park and looked at the new equipment that had been placed there about five months ago. Lucius sat on a swing and looked at the world. Aurora notice he looked sad, she decided to get him ice cream to cheer him up. She ran to a small ice cream machine and got chocolate heart. She had heard from Scarlet that he liked the flavor. She didn't like the flavor much but she got two of chocolate hearts anyway.
She walked passed the trees and saw Lucius. His arms were placed around a girl with ashy charcoal hair and a tan that Aurora though could only be obtained on Mars. Her milky coffee cream color skin looked just as flawless as Athena's skin. The girl had her lips on his. Aurora dropped the ice cream and was frozen with rage and sadness. She burned with envy and walked towards Lucius.

They pulled away from each other and Lucius said something to the girl. She smiled in response to whatever he said.
They kissed again and Aurora yelled “What do you think you're doing!”.
“Kissing him” Said the girl with a soft, calm voice. Her lips so close to his they might as well have been kissing.
Aurora wanted to punch her pretty little face. Her light green eyes seemed to shine. She still had one hand on Lucius’s shoulder. Her shirt covered half her chest and her shorts seemed like underwear.
“Sorry, is he your boyfriend?” Said the green eyed girl.
“No…” Replied Aurora with great hesitation.
“Good” Said the girl before turning and kissing Lucius once more.
Athena walked over and said “Get away from my brother”.
“Sorry but he's my boyfriend. So I get to be as close to him as we feel like” said the girl.
“Why didn't you tell me you had a girlfriend!” Said Athena.
“Because he doesn't have to tell you everything. But mind giving us some privacy I was… but I don't want to go!” said the girl talking into her bracelet.
“Can I keep this one? It's the only one I've ever wanted. Please, it's really cute” Said the girl.
She pressed against Lucius and said “I am pretty sure he would want to join me. Wouldn't you Astraeus. Fine I'll come back for him later” the girl kissed him one last time.
“I'll be back for you. And don't worry I'll kiss you the next time I see you” She placed something in his pocket and reached up his shirt with a wink.
“I love your skin” .
She ran off and Lucius said “She’s pretty cute”.
His facial expression said he had enjoyed every second of her presence. Aurora felt angry and had no idea why. Aurora hadn't even noticed that everyone else had also seen the event unfold with the exception of Hex. It was more than possible that they were all angry or jealous.

“Why did you let her kiss you!” Said Morrie not having a sleepy voice for the first time in what seemed like forever.
She had a beautiful voice. It seemed more enlightened and joyful than mad.
“Who kissed who?” Asked Hex. “Some girl kissed Lucius” Said Allison with scorn.
Aurora didn't feel like staying and grabbed Hex before leaving with Scarlet.
“So what exactly happened?” Asked Hex.
“I don't want to talk about it” Said Aurora with a hint of sadness.
“Wait a second, are you sad!?” Said Hex.
Aurora knew she wasn't sad, she was depressed. She had known him for over a year and he had only raised her hopes to bring them down on her.
“No” Said Aurora attempting to sound more joyful.
Hex and Scarlet hugged Aurora. They had only seen her sad once before. That day was the worst day her life. She dared not recall what happened that day. To many demons lay there ready to rise again. She did have four angels in the battle field of demons. Her sister Evelynn and Sam were her first. Sam was just over nineteen but had been there for her and Evelynn. He adopted Aurora in order to keep her with Evelynn when she was still too young to take care of Aurora herself. On Marz sixteen was when people were considered a legal adults. Sam had gotten a job rehabilitating soldiers when he was seventeen to support Aurora and Evelynn. The war had left no shortage of injured. Evelynn and Sam both worked hard to give Aurora an easy life. Evelynn brought in more money than Aurora thought possible for a nanny.
“Let's go cheer you up!” Said Hex.
Scarlet gave her the smile and she knew they were up to no good.
“By the way I got this card and according to this card that I got from you know who's uncle. I can get people to help with anything we want” Said Scarlet.
She had a wicked smile was more than enough to let Aurora know they were going to do plenty of mischief.
“Can I see the card” Said Aurora.
“Yeah” Replied Scarlet.
“That makes one of us” Said Hex.
“Adriel’s Odd jobs service. This card entitles the owner to a gold membership job” Said Aurora.
Aurora looked at the back and read the phone number.
“Should I call?” Asked Aurora.
“Why not” Said Hex.
She dialed the phone number and heard a feminine voice.

Rise of the Weakest Summoner
One fateful day, a caravan was passing by the village of Teira, which had been raided and set ablaze by bandits. Within the burning rubble, a young woman found a baby, a sole survivor of the attack, and decided to take it with her and raise as her own. As she was leaving with the little child in her hands, two falling stars lit up the night sky, and she named the boy Asterios. Years passed and he grew up in a caring and warm home, developing a passion for all magical beasts, choosing the path of a Summoner as his way of life. While his love and knowledge also grew boundless, his practical abilities clearly pointed out his complete lack of compatibility with that school of magic, but he never wavered in his resolution. Follow Asterios as his life of perpetual failure and bullying suddenly takes an unexpected turn, after just seconds short of his death, a powerful summon answers his call and saves his life. Wait... doesn't it look like... A GIRL?! Are those animal ears and tail?! ★━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━★ Release schedule: Two times a week is the goal. Most likely Tuesday and Friday. What to expect:A quite chill fantasy adventure with an MC devoted to summoning magic and fantasy beasts, slowly getting rid of his title of the Weakest Summoner (sudden strength gain but with progressive development), lots of exploring, magic, encounters, lots of character development, quite some fluff and feel-goods and perhaps a lovely harem of Monster Girls (not too many). It's a quite light story.
