What's with those foxes? The nine tailed fox was super cute, and the shadow fox was super cool. I just wanted to tame them, then pat them and finally just stuff my face in their fur. What's more is that it was super hard to sneak up on them. I almost failed with them both. Well next prey is that way I thought and was going to run of when mom suddenly apaired.

"Oh, hi mom. Totally forgot about you" I said.

"That kinda hurt you know? I have been keeping you safe while watching you hunt and flirt with that guy" she said.

"Eh? You saw that? How much did you see?"

"Everything" Se said with a teasing smile.

"Urgh"

"Well it was fun to see you having so much fun hunting. I'm just glad you enjoyed yourself"

"It was super fun!"

"I could see that. I must say that I'm surprised by how strong those instincts of yours were and how easy it was for you to kill monsters almost 10 levels above yourself. We can talk more in the car. You have been here for almost 8 hours. That's 4 hours outside the dungeon so if we don't hurry we will be late to dinner"

"Ok mom"

After we left the dungeon we stepped in the hover car. I read that they used wheels in the past. It was much harder to steer and navigate back then. Yes you heard right. They had to steer their cars themself. What losers! Today people only have to sometimes steer offroad.

"Guess what mom"

"I don't know darling. What is it"

"When I taste the blood of a monster I know how to smell that specific monster through their blood. Like the striped panther I tasted. Now I can find striped panthers by the smell of their blood. And there more. I can smell how strong they are by how strong their blood smells. Ain't I just perfect"

"..." she stare at me with wide eyes.

"Hmm?" I tilt my head.

"That is pretty handy" she says.

"Yes I know right. Oh guess what more"

"Theres more?!" She looks kinda shocked.

"Yes. I have a theory. If I taste enough human blood from a class and element I may be able to do the same. You know smell what kind of class and element one has"

"That's kinda op" mom says.

"Of course it is. Its me were talking about"

"Yes you're right" mom said as she gave me a hug. Ha. The old cars also had seatbelts or something like that you needed to use to stay safe. They couldn't be huge like we are now. Super losers!

"You are really adorable when you act like that Sophia, but try not to get too absorbed in yourself" she says and I once again find the roof werry interesting. The black and gold color makes it look fancy. I mean it is a fancy car, but still.

"Sophia, what did you do?"

"Uhmm, nooothing" I try to act cute.

"I'm your mom Sophia. I know you well enough to know when you try to hide something.

"Well, ehm, you see…" I get eye contact with mom and can't hide it longer.

"I got the title grater narcissist" I say a little embarrassed.

"... … … hahahah" Mom stares at me for a while before breaking out in laughter. "I don't know if this is funny or embarrassing"

I pout "Ok I get it. I have already been bullied by the system. You don't need to join"

"Sorry about that. I guess it's too late to do anything about it now. I may have a role in it for spoiling you so much. But it was still totally worth it. I love you darling"

"I love you to mom" I lean on her and close my eyes as I feel her patting me on the head. This is the best.

I take off my jacket and hang it on the closet. Then I go to the mirror and inspect my wings and I can't help but feel proud at how pretty they are.

"Dinners reddy" daddy shouts from downstairs.

"Coming"

Yey, it's cheese schnitzel today. I sit at my place and start eating.

"Hey, Sophia. I heard from mom that you got the greater narcissist title" big sis says.

"Urgh. I may have gotten something like that"

"How did you even get it so fast after awakening? What exactly did you do?" big bro asks.

"When I woke up after awakening I startet inspecting my new looks in the mirror. And I may have ended up doing that for 3 hours and praising my new good and cute looks. Especially my wings"

"..."

"What?"

"3 hours!?" sis finally said something.

"Yes, it's not my fault I became so cute"

"Well yes you are cute and you have pretty wings, but…."

"I know right!" They are so beautiful" I interrupted sis and started showing off my wings.

"Sorry if i'm rude but could I touch your wings" sis asks.

"You could help me clean them in the evening. Because your so kind and my sister I trust you" I say

Then the brother asks something "Is letting others touch your wings a sign of trust?"

"Trust and affection. When I let others touch my wings It's a sign that I trust them and care much for them. That they are someone important in my life like family, close friends or a loved one" I answered.

"I'm glad to hear that" sis says.

Time flew by. My sister and I are in the bathroom and she is cleaning my wings after I having shown her how to do it. It's quite relaxing and good feeling her hand stroking my wings slowly and carefully from top to bottom.

"Your wings are so good to touch and work with. A dog is fluffy and nice to stroke, but it's something different with your wings. I can't put my finger on it, but it's something about them that makes them better to touch than a dog. I think it's your wings that are so light, your feathers that are so soft and smooth, the beauty of them and how relaxed you are"

"I'm glad you like them. I could sit her all day, or all night might be more correct. No, I could sit her all night and day"

"Hehe, you're so cute lil sis. I love you"

"I love you to sis"

Sis continued to clean my wing, then switched to the other one.

"There. Done sis. How do they feel" she asks.

"Already? That was fast. Like 15 minutes or something like that?"

"Sophia, I have been cleaning your wings for a hour"

"Really? Well my wings feel amazing. You did a splendid job. You could clean them again if you want. Or was it too much work for your liking?"

"I loved it and would gladly do it again" sis said

"Yey!"

"Now go to bed Sophia. I'm planning to take a shower so I need the bathroom for myself"

"Ok, good night" I give her a hug and leave for my room.

"Yes, good night Sophia"
