The Villain's Story Chapter [145]The New Member.

Chapter [145]The New Member.

Alice Thompson.

The daughter of Richard Thompson, and the heir of the third-ranked guild.

And...I don't know her.

She didnt have much of an appearance in my memories.

... let's see...she appeared in a banquet of some sort...her name was recalled when the announcer called the names of the Guests from Twilight.

When was the d.a.m.n banquet?...anyway.

And there aren't any pictures of her on the internet.

So she doesn't have a public appearance...and it's infuriating I don't know much about her.

Well, if she doesn't appear in my memories, she probably isn't strong enough.

"...owww."

I heard Kazikato's cries of pain as he licked his wounds.

"...what are you doing...it doesn't even hurt that much."

"Boss, your more hurt than me."

'I am?'

I thought to myself as I looked at my wounds and then confirmed it.

"I am."

*Knock*Knock*

And it was then that two knocks were heard on the door, and I told whoever it was on the other side to come in.

"Come in."

And then a face similar to Richards came in.

And my dumba.s.s didn't see the difference from my seated position.

I stood up, and then complained to 'Richard.'

"Guildmaster about the raid..."

"Boss."

I heard Kazikato interrupt me, but I ignored him and continued.

"I don't think we can take your-"

"Boss."

"As I was saying...I don't."

"Boss!"

"WHAT?!"

"That's not the Guildmaster."

What?

I turned to look over at Richard...only this time I had lowered my head instead.

Wait...why is shorter than me all of a sudden?

And why is he wearing a skirt?

"Ahem."

And why is his voice so femini-

...oh.

s.h.i.t.

"I don't think I bear 'That' much of a resemblance to my father."

...

...

...

f.u.c.k, that was his daughter.

With pure jet black hair that went down to her shoulders, the same eyes as Her father...and just a slightly more feminine face...and I guess a 'somewhat bigger chest.'

It seems that because of my previous experience of guarding Sabrina Wellington, I have built up a sort of resistance to any woman that isn't on her level of charm...well those her age anyway.

And what do I mean by Guarding anyway?

I haven't been in shield for a month or two, I don't know.

I don't even specifically bodyguard her anymore.

And I am a hundred percent sure that her family is NOT happy.

Probably.

"Ahem! I apologize for my-"

I tried to apologize for my mistake but was cut off even before I could complete my sentence.

"Don't worry, it happens."

...

...

"So you're the rising star of our guild...

The first Spatial Awakened of humanity!

...your much more...bigger than what I imagined."

I heard her comments and stayed quiet.

Well, I do agree I have gotten bigger ever since my evolution.

"Are you using Body Enhancement?"

She asked me a question...and I denied the very notion of using Body Enhancement.

"No."

"What's body enhancement?"

Kazikato Asked, and before 'I' could reply to him, she explained first.

"It's a skill that uses mana to enhance your muscles temporarily. Some Awakened use it to appear bigger than what they are."

"Oh...so are those muscles fake boss?"

"No!"

I denied the very statement of these muscles being fake.

Even though I gained them through not my work, but because of my bloodline...these are not fake.

"Ahem! Now let's begin the introduction."

I sat down on the couch and gestured for her to sit on the couch opposite me.

She sat down gracefully all while showing a gentle smile.

But I, who has been strengthened because of seeing Sabrina for a month or so, will not fall for this!

"Name?"

"Alice Thompson."

I began the questioning.

"Age?"

"16"

"Oooh! Same as me!"

I ignored Kazikato b.u.t.ting in, and continued.

"Elemental affinities?"

"Shadow."

"What's your charm stat?"

She paused for a while because of Kazikato's sudden question.

I, of course, didn't mind this type of question.

"B- rank".

"... it's higher than mine."

'And mine.'

I thought as I heard Kazikato's dejected voice.

"What are your...specialties?"

I asked her...and was somewhat shocked by her response.

"I have none."

"Pardon?"

"I have no specialties related to battle or magic."

....

Ahh...so that's why she didn't have much of an appearance in the novel.

"It's wrong to say that."

I told her.

"Everyone has a specialty, they just haven't found it yet if they claim they have none."

Look at me, my specialty can't exactly be the spear, its this body's specialty, combined with Ara.n.u.s's memories

And speaking of Ara.n.u.s, I haven't heard from him in a month, he disappeared right after the battle with Kazikato.

Oh well, I don't necessarily care.

,m "Anyways, since you want to be a member, I don't care, but if you want to partic.i.p.ate in the dungeon diving, You-

"Have to stay in the back, and not get close to any hunter or monster correct?"

I stopped after being interrupted by her.

"No."

"?"

She had a surprised look on her face as she heard my 'No.'

No way in h.e.l.l is I letting her stay in the back.

She's going to be a team member, and honestly, I and kazikato are enough for anything in low-level dungeons.

She doesn't have to worry about protection if the monsters are dead before they even reach her.

And I hate it when people demoralize themselves.

"Anyways, Welcome to the team."

I don't care if you're weak right now.

It doesn't matter if you're weak.

What matters is if you 'stay' weak.

***

(Alices POV)

All my life I've been sheltered.

I always fantasized about going into dungeons.

But my father has never let me, and i... don't have any talent in... anything except for studies I guess.

Which was why I was surprised by Alan Peccator.

Although many have said those words to comfort me.

I don't expect it from someone so young.

He seems far more mature than he seems to like.

And this...idiot over here as well, what was his name?

Kazikato Shimoshino?

Oh well, at least the leader is dependable.

And considering the level of his strength, I should be okay to explore dungeons.

I've finally had my wish granted.

I'm not going to let anyone ruin this...not even dad.

So, I can deal with these two, even though I might be a burden.

I know that...which is why I intend to carry my weight in the team by my means.

I would later come to think of the mean behind carrying my weight on this team.

Quite Frankly, These two have left me quite surprised.

These two are strong...

And although this might be rude...but it is true.

they are f.u.c.king lunatics.

****

(A/N:I'm going to change the ages of the characters.

Just think of them as one year older than what was originally stated

Alan is 17, while Kazikato and Alice are 16.

The other characters in Shield are also 17.
