Chapter 268 - The Twins Meet Xijun
-----
SPLASH!
The massive over 50-meter-long sea snake was defeated by Xijun rather easily.
She used the power of the technique she learned, a noob-level technique she made into an absolute masterpiece by just being used by herself.
The powerful attack blasted the beast's head in an instant.
It is obvious that the Fireball of a Level 1 Apprentice Mage cannot compare with the Fireball of a Level 100 Master Sorcerer, right? Even if it's the same low-grade spell, the one that got the greater base power and technique will make it shine, nonetheless.
We ended completing the Emergency Quest that nobody was going to attend, the Elders were slacking around so it would had taken them a while to move, the ships would had gotten destroyed by then.
So we acted out of purely wanting the rewards and also being nice people overall.
Its honest work.
"Give me the fish." Said Xijun, as she flew towards one of the ships.
"Eh?!"
"You want us to give you the fish we fished?"
"W-What?"
Xijun began to ask for compensation.
"Wait! Xijun, that's wrong! We already got the whole sea snake to eat too, don't be greedy." I said.
"Grandpa always told me to seek compensation when I did something for other people… He said "Nothing in life is for free"…" she said.
"I see. So your grandpa was the one that taught you how to be such a greedy girl…" I sighed.
"Sorry, don't mind her, we are done here." I said, as I grabbed Xijun against her own will and flew away with the sea snake corpse stored inside my Inventory.
We flew back to the sect and complete the quest. Everyone looked at us with surprise.
After only a week of being here we completed an S-Rank Quest.
"W-Wow…!"
"They killed the sea snake!"
"Look at that head!"
"Enormous!"
We put the sliced head of the sea snake over the floor of the Quest Hall to show it off as the proof of our actions, and the receptionist couldn't refute us, quickly giving us the bag of coins alongside a million contribution points for each one.
"T-Thanks for your hard work! The sect is very proud of you! You'll be promoted to S-Rank Members." Said the blue-haired girl.
"No that doesn't matter, it's a hassle." Said Xijun.
"Yeah, we are fine with being F-Rank." I said.
"E-Eh?!" the girl was left shocked as we walked away.
Indeed, being higher Ranked in the Sect only brought more hassle than anything.
You had to do a meeting with the sect master and a ceremony.
And it was a pain.
"But you'll get access to the higher-grade technique scrolls from the library!" said the girl desperately to fulfill her job.
We quickly looked back at her with greedy eyes.
"Really?" asked Xijun.
The girl nodded desperately.
"Yeah!" she said.
"Okay then, where do we do the ceremony? Call that old man of the sect master asap." I said.
"Yeah, hurry, we don't got all day." Said Xijun, slapping the table.
"O-okay!" cried the girl, quickly moving away.
After having to wait a whole hour, we were finally greeted by the old man.
"Congratulations, what you did was commendable and-"
"Yeah, yeah, get done with it." I said.
"Hm, we are in a hurry, and hungry." Said Xijun.
The Sect Master grew paler as he sighed.
"Youngsters these days…"
He ended the ceremony quickly and our insignias were now those of a sharp riding an ocean wave, with a big 'S' on top of it.
Like Adventurer Guilds, there are up to SSS-Rank in terms of Ranks, the higher the Rank, the different the design.
The Emergency Quest we completed gave us a lot of Contribution Points so it was obvious it would instantly rise us from F-Rank to S-Rank. We were actually given the chance to become up to B-Rank, but we ended ignoring it until now.
"I'm hungry, Gustav, let's go cook at the beach!" said Xijun.
"Okay, okay, this time is perfect too, they have recovered too, so I guess I can present them to you." I said.
"Huh? Who?" asked Xijun.
"My family." I said with a smile.
"Eh?" wondered Xijun.
She had seen my summons and was actually riding Cuco right now at my side, but she didn't knew of any other summons than Cuco, Wisp, and Arachne.
"Mrao!"
Cuco nodded.
"You know them, Cuco?" she asked.
"Mrao." Said Cuco.
"Yeah, he's well loved by everyone." I said.
"Ooohh… If Cuco trust them they're nice people then." Said Xijun, petting Cuco's fluffy black fur.
We reached the beach in an instant as we took out the giant sea snake.
"Summon." I said.
FLASH! FLASH!
Two figures emerged from the summoning circles, I decided to only bring my wives and our children for now.
"Oh…!"
Xijun was left speechless as she saw my two very tall wives, their sexy and mature bodies left her speechless, the beautiful fairy and the strong squirrel girl were imposing figures.
And on their arms, there were two adorable babies that looked like me a bit.
"This is Kireina and Anna, both of them are my wives… And these two babies are Fran and Valentina, they're my daughters." I said.
"Ooooh! I didn't knew you even got children! You're a daddy?! I would had never guessed…" she said in shock.
"Fufu, so this is the adorable Xijun? She's as cute as I thought she would be, Hmm!" said Kireina.
"Hello, Xijun, nice to meet you." Said Anna.
Kireina playfully petted Xijun, while Anna smiled gently.
"N-Nice to meet you… You spoke about me to them?" she said.
"Oh yes! All day he always speaks about you, it gave me a bit jealously." Said Kireina.
"Indeed. I guess he sees you as his little sister in a way, or a daughter too." Said Anna.
"R-Really?" wondered Xijun.
"Xixi!" said Valentina.
"Pap! Junjun?" asked Fran.
"Yes, Xijun." I said to my girls.
The two babies then jumped out of their mother's embrace and flew to Xijun.
