BOTH I AND VAL TURNED OUR HEADS TO HIM, "What's with that reaction?" I exclaimed in shock.
{"If your father had stayed here for a little longer, he would probably have sensed me!"} What?
"Didn't you say no human could?" Val questioned with his eyebrows raised.
{"That man, your father, isn't just a human. He's one of those, as I like to call, rare human monsters. He's probably as sharp as Stradivarius! And if you two turn out to be like him in the future, even spirits will fear you,"} his eyes stared into mine. {"Especially you!"}
I bit my bottom lip, anxiously. "Were you scared of our dad?"
{"Nothing scares me, kid. But he got me wary and on my guard. He's stronger enough to get me to acknowledge him. You are lucky to be his children, not enemies' offspring. That would fuck you up. And I'm pretty sure your dad would be compatible with the water spirit,"} his eyes met Val's. {"I think that annoying hedgehog would be able to bond with you, kid!"}
