Chapter 16

"Good morning sleeping beauty" Lucy

"I seem to have developed a habit of fainting" jack

"So, what happened to you while you were asleep?" Johanna

"I met the god of death and reincarnation." jack

"Oh, you too?" Johanna

"So how long this time?" jack

"About two hours" Mr Smith

"I want to check on aunty" jack

"Fine, but let’s make sure everyone else’s family are safe first" Johanna

"Are you alright?" Joe

"Never been better. Why?" jack

"You seem kind of, off. I can’t put my finger on it" Joe

"He’s right, you seem kind of shifty, like it's hard to look at you." sally

"Well thanks, at least I know you think I look like a bad person" jack

"I didn't mean it like that" sally

"Of course he’s hard to look at; he’s a shadowling for crying out loud" Mr. Smith

"What’s a shadowling?" jacobe

"It’s a demon class creator that specializes in stealth and assassination, basically the ninjas of demons." Mr. Smith

"It suits you" Johanna

"Thanks" jack

"I’m worried about my parents" Joe

"I am too" sally

"Whose house is closest?" jack

"Ours is a block away from the school" sally

"So yours is the closest, show us the way" Joe

On the way I saw a lot of abandoned cars, and several wrecks. After a while I noticed something was wrong, there are no bodies.

"It’s like everyone was spirited away" sally

"That’s because that’s exactly what happened, I can feel traces of a high level teleportation magic." Mr Smith

After a couple minutes of walking the twins started running towards what I can only imagine to be their house. When we got to the door it was unlocked. Sally was visibly worried, jacobe managed to hide it pretty well but I could tell he was worried.

"I hope their ok." sally

Inside I saw a hallway with stairs at the end, 2 doors on the left and 3 on the right. We were guided into what I can only assume to be the kitchen, where a letter sits on the table. Sally went over and picked up the letter and started reading it with jacobe.

"What does it say?" jack

"That our parents are fine and that they went to a friend’s house." sally

"Where is this friend’s house?" Johanna

"On the corner of XXXXX st and XXXXX dr." jacobe

"That’s where we live!!" Johanna

"To think, your parents knew aunty" jack

"Yeah, she's a really unsociable person so she doesn't have many friends, even back home" Johanna

stats can now be increased manually. monsters will start to spawn in the world.

"I’m starving, got anything to eat?" Joe

"yeah, I’ll prepare something for you to eat" jacobe

"I’ll help you, I have the cooking skill" jack

we made some salad because everyone, except ghost who is a carnivore, was sick of meat. everyone devoured their salad, asking for seconds and even thirds. in the end we had to make more salad, it was that good. while eating with my right hand I put my left wrist on the table then put my pinky finger on the table, picked it up and put my ring finger on the table. I did that as fast as possible with all of my fingers, never letting two fingers touch the table at any time. I ended up gaining 5 points of dex as well as unlocking the concentration stat.

I looked outside and realized that it was too dark outside to leave. I walked around the house and found 4 bedrooms, 1 living room, and 2 bathrooms. one of the bathrooms had a bath that was huge, like one of those pointlessly large Asian style baths.

"so where is everyone going to sleep tonight?" sally

"I would think that everyone would stay with their people. you and your brother in one room, Joe selena in another, and mr smith on his own." jack

"sleep with who were comfortable around, right?" sally

"exactly" jack

after sleeping arrangements were situated, I took the master bedroom because it had the largest bed, the girls went to take a shower.

"don't you dare peek on us" sally

"master can peek on me anytime he wants" ghost

"don't worry I won't peek on you, I’m not interested in humans anyway. but I promise nothing for the others" jack

"and, my entire childhood explained in 1 second" Johanna

not even ten minutes after the girls got in the bath Joe had a completely unoriginal idea.

"let’s go peek on the girls" Joe

"I am a selfish person, if you peek on my girls I will make you wish you were dead" jack

jacobe went over and put his hand on Joe’s shoulders, crying in terror.

"I would join you, but I value my life" jacobe

after that idea was successfully destroyed everyone was quiet for a couple minutes. I spoke first.

"hey, mr smith teach us some magic" jack

"very well, but what branch do you want to learn about?" mr smith

"healing magic, it will be useful in emergencies" jack

after that everyone spent hour and a half learning about healing magic. I managed to get the skill in ten minutes, the others took 3 times that. in the end my healing magic got to superior healing magic. I got 3 int from learning all of this.

when the girls came out I was ready to go to bed. I was exhausted.

"well good night, I’m heading to bed." jack

as I was lying in the bed I felt something warm cling on to my left side. and something that felt like a summer breeze on my right.

your pet/slave Johanna can evolve. chose one: greater wind sprite, wind elemental

"chose the sprite" Johanna

your pet/slave ghost can evolve. chose one: greater demon wolf, Cerberus

'chose greater demon wolf' ghost

and we drift off to sleep.
