"I want you to keep an eye on him" He pointed with his finger to Malum.
Malum was on the ground in a dream like state currently. The black goo that was inside him had put him in sleep. The two looked at each other as they didn't understand why Gluttony would want that the two of them watch over Malum.
"Why should we"
Lara asked as she had of course no reason to do it not like she was a friend of Malum. Kris was friend of Malum, but they were not close not yet. Kris got simply curious about Malum which is why he came close to Malum, but he had no expected that something like this would happen.
"If you don't want to become a potential future meal of mine then I recommend you, to do it"
He smiled to Lara. There was a difference between them not only strength but who was the hunter. Gluttony was the hunter, and they were his prey the only reason the hunter doesn't strike his because he is training his successor.
"Don't worry he may be weak now, but he will grow stronger"
"I don't really care if he becomes stronger or not, I became his friend because he got my interest but how are you so sure" Kris said in a serious manner at Gluttony face.
`What a brave idiot or is it rather bold move of him´
It was funny for Gluttony he couldn't keep his laughter. He was laughing aloud he didn't think that he would meet such a living being by following Malum. Gluttony started to float and putting his right leg on his left leg acting as if he was sitting on a chair. He pointed to Kris with his finger Litteral fire is what could be seen in Gluttony eyes somehow.
"For a hybrid you are interesting to the least"
Lara tried attacking Gluttony, but the swords couldn't put a scratch on Gluttony but instead went inside him like slime. Kris seeing that saw that Gluttony had many powers and that may be the reason he has such a powerful aura.
"You are clearly not a vampire"
Gluttony appeared beside Kris grabbing him by his cheeks and turning his head to him. He looked at Kris examine his body in detail.
"As you don't possess the red eyes that the vampire kind possess from drinking the blood of beings. Unlike from the lady there"
He let go of Kris and just sighed.
"Forget it all I want is you two to watch over this idiotic one who is my `Master´"
"There is not what we have to do"
"Fine then don't do it"
Gluttony gave up he could of course just do something on the memories of these two, but he did not want to. That seemed for him like a waste of energy to try and force two people to watch over an idiot by manipulating their memories or something similar. He will neither eat their memories to erase what they had seen.
Gluttony disappeared from the two. The two went on their knees taking a relief breath. Kris leaned on Lara shoulder which surprised her. She looked at Kris watching his white hair was going down. Her red eyes were shining while looking at Kris. She could hear Kris breathing heavily she watched his breathing.
"This will be an interesting year right Lara?"
She had not responded to what Kris said. She was thinking about Gluttony and how he reacted. She could vaguely remember something her father had told her about. Beings that are not a specie but embodiments of concepts. Such beings calling themselves just what their concept are called.
`Informing my father about it would be smart right now but seeing how easily the thing consumed a specie of demon I didn't even see before. Still informing my father about it is the smartest decision I could possibly make´
"Hey Lara, do you really think if we don't watch over Malum that we could become his prey?"
"Don't act like that as if with our bloodline that we two have it would be hard. You also saw that he did that for that boy called Malum meaning he needs him"
"Still that specie was easily beaten meaning Gluttony that being is extremely powerful"
It wasn't wrong what Kris said. To defeat a specie in an instant you need to be powerful but what was done and how they saw it that Gekorno was not beaten but eaten alive then got vomited from Malum out.
The two heard noises coming from the door of the warehouse. A female student with black hair came she was wearing a robe which resembled that of a standard cultivator. She moved fast to Lara and Kris.
"Are the two of you ok. We from the cultivator's section have sent a powerful energy coming from here which is why I was sent to come and look what is going on here"
