Chapter 27 - Reijis predicament

The guildmaster slaps reijis back "I see you have a couple strong ones with ya reiji"

reiji puts his hand up "we have a matter of utmost importance, can we speak in private?"

the guild master nods and brings them to a meeting room.

In the meeting room Rosanna and Rosalie sit snacking on cookies provided by the guild master. reiji and the guild master start their conversation.

" we have a request for the guild for each participant the reward will be based on the amount of beasts slain" reiji explains

" ohoho that's quite a generous reward. With that even a small amount will add up quickly but I can't help but feel your hiding something" the guild master says while rubbing his chin.

" it is as you suspect a horde of six hundred thousand is coming due to the so called heroes actions. that person is imprisoned currently, but it was too late to stop the demon seeds from spreading." reiji comes clean

" DEMON SEEDS!!! the guild masters eyes widen then a grim look disappears from his face as anger takes over.."

Scum these so called heroes always think they are above our laws." The guild master says

reiji stands " this is the end of our conversation at least for now "

the guild master stops reiji by saying " by the way reiji who are these beautiful ladies "

Rosanna and Rosalie respond Rosalie says "his mate" Rosanna says "his wife" The guild master laughs.."I see so Rosanna the scarlet knight has taken to a man."

Rosanna smiles "not just any man prince reiji is the only man for me. I will accept no other."

The guild master stands grabbing his weapon from beside his chair. A huge sword as tall as he glowing in a dark hue like aura barely visible.

:I shall call a few hot shots but I warn you they are...troublesome"

the guildmaster grabs reijis card and pulls out a magic stamp and hits it.

"This will register you 3 as a party. OH by the way i shall get your wives cards soon take care until."

Reiji shouts back" I AM NOT MARRIED" The guild master laughs " try telling that to your brides hahahahaha"

Reiji grabs both the girls hands and ushers them to sit down. they comply and they look at each other confused.

reiji begins "Listen girls I don't know if you are thinking straight. I may have saved you both, or protected you but that doesn't mean you need to marry me!"

Rosalie laughs holding her sides " you think we are so shallow that merely saving us is enough to make us yours hahaha.:

suddenly her face became stern.."reiji I love you because you are a man worthy of love. You cannot force anyone to love you. It is who you are that we have fallen for."

Rosana nods and adds " you are my prince in my time of need you are the only one to have ever come to help. I have almost died many times and all others wanted compensation. when I awoke you had taken me in your home, had someone by my side to make sure I was okay, and on top of that asked for nothing in exchange even though you barely know me at all.

while the same may be true of me to you I am willing to forego that because the moment I awoke my feelings for you became fact. You are a man worthy of respect and admiration strong, smart , honorable and well...you are a true dragon."

reiji looks at them and shakes his head.." um you both are saying you...want me? he says while pointing at himself and they both hug his arms .

They say in tandem " YES"

Reiji sighs "okay but marriage right away is... can we just take time to get to know each other?" the girls nod

reiji exhales and sits back and looks at the ceiling inwardly saying. " so it seems I will have to learn to trust someone sometime his eyes dart towards the door" the guild master gets a shiver down his spine and he closes the door.

" What a frightening young man his eyes towards others are cold and ruthless yet he saves indiscriminately"

"If he had proper training he might actually be a threat to us at some point." The guild master says while holding a sss rank card in his hand smiling. he goes to his office and closes the door.

Upon sitting at his desk he pulls out 7 scrolls and tosses them " whether they come or not will depend on you child of elsha."

that evening as the sun goes down 9 figures appear on the towns battlements along with hundreds of shadows kneeling. the king, the guild master, and the unknown 7 as the horde approaches. they all smirk with anticipation, and turn to the guild master.

suddenly a man among them speaks long blonde hair put in a ponytail with a spear. eyes closed with a leather outfit on made of bearskin. This man radiates danger.

[???] will he make an appearance here you said we may see him here if we come.

a short woman walks up wearing a black bra and a short jacket barely covering her chest, and shorts that look like camo shorts. with many daggers around her belt. she has short black hair and ears with a black panther like tail. she has one eye covered with a eye patch and the other has a silver hue.

[ ???] yes I'd like to see the man who shall finally tame me.

The rest don't come from the shadows, but look at her stunned.

[???] you still go to that fortune teller?

another speaks as the thunderous roar of foot steps start in the forest trees topple. More and more roars echo through the night.

the woman responds " he who has the strength and intelligence of a dragon will tame the jungle empress " is what i was told.

a man with blue eyes in the shadow and slit like pupils walks forward and speaks.

[???] then they are many with that strength

The woman looks at him "yes but no other seems to be of any worth."

[???] watch your tongue wench!!! the man jumps down and walks into a tent.

The guild master sighs and looks at the woman

" you know aisha you should really learn to not just trust a fortune teller. though I can tell you I know of one man with such intelligence his strength is lacking at the moment."

aisha rushes him and the guild master steps back in a instant she appears in front of him.

[aisha] remember caldus.. I am way stronger than you. do not force my hand.

The guild master hasn't really let anyone know his real name and she just spouts it.

[Caldus] "why don't you just take your position back it is a lot of work.

[aisha] it is too tedious
