The group has arrived back home, our outfits all have burnt holes in them. Everyone went by their business, some wanted to bathe in a hot spring, some just repaired the equipment. Others however just wanted to relax...
Me and aino are the one's fixing the equipment... aino was originally the one who created all of this. And i will be the one responsible for upgrading them!
When we were finished i increased the defenses of their outfits by 5 defense and a 7% increased resistance for all elements.
As for aino i tweeked it bit, adding an thin reinforced platinum sheet on the left shoulder and a feathery one on the right, adding an extra 10 defense and 10% increased resistance against all elements.
After that we rested for a bit we made tea and drank some tea while eating some biscuits. It feels relaxing and peaceful...
I said to her in a low tone "thank you mademoiselle" she looked at me confused, not knowing what it meant.
So i explained to her "it means my lady" then she tittled a bit and said "my, my, when have i become your lady?" Then after a bit of silence she stood up, went up to me, and kissed me on the forehead.
I looked at her and asked "what was that for?" She looked saddened and said "i know your gonna leave soon, so i just left a mark. A magic circuit to be more precise."
I could feel it glow, i was curious what it could do so i asked her. She replied "don't worry its just a tracker, if you don't move for 3 days straight i will be there to find you!"
Then aino gave me a mirror, the mark isn't visible. I looked at aino and hugged her, then thanked her for caring about me.
Then she hugged me back and said "don't worry darling, it is my job to care for everyone in my territory afterall."
I then pulled away slowly, and then looked at aino, it looks like she is fighting her inner demons from saying something...
I giggled and said "go on say it, i wont get angry" she breathed a sigh of relief.
Then said "its my job to take care of people in my territory, but in your case its my job to take care of the things i own..."
I stared at her eyes, looking directly into her soul, sending a chill down her spine. I smiled and said "my, my, you wanted to dominate me? Silly girl, im dominating you right now."
She sighed and said "yeah i can't win... so! got any plans for today?"
I told her i wanted to go out to hunt a bit, my villain points are running low, i am now half stronger since i last met that magician guy.
Aino came with me to hunt, after all there was a report of a slightly less dangerous but a lot easier to kill monster nearby... geared up the two of us set out to exterminate it!
