The Game Rune System

Chapter 71: A sweet bloodsucker

Tetsuya's purple cube didn't wait for the beast to stop thrashing around.

It went below, shrunken down to the size of an eye, then entered one of those red eyes mercilessly.

Faint screams escaped the bird's beak, but the purple cube didn't hurt at all. It just ignored all privacy and entered the bird's eye!

Then, the game master closed his eyes and waited for connection to occur, "Hmm" Pondering what would happen next, Tetsuya soon got his answer.

The connection with the purple cube allowed Tetsuya to get a detailed location of the bloodsucker! The minimap, which had already been a permanent feature in the game rune system, flashed with a red dot far away in the mountains!

The image of a real bloodsucker also appeared within Tetsuya's mind!

It was a woman with dangerously pale skin. Her red eyes shone far brighter than the silver bird's and it was clear that those were genuine and natural red eyes.

Her appearance was like of the queen sitting on the chair with nothing more but red dress! She had a confused look because Tetsuya's powers couldn't be properly perceived by her, even though her nose could smell something weird.

She could see that one of the birds got seized by an unknown man, so bloodsucker was ready to give up on the beast.

But this man's eyes were as if looking at her and so she kept that connection for a little longer!

It was stupid action, but people often did many mistakes.

After the connection broke naturally, Tetsuya opened his eyes, "It seems like there is deep organization hidden in these areas."

He mumbled to himself as his eyes also looked around the bloodsucker's room. This room was spacious, had a lot of books and old furniture that were mostly hidden in the shadows.

If not fiant candle around the bloodsucker, Tetsuya would need much more time to look out through her room.

But his eyes could also peek outside the window.

He found an underground world here with stone castles and houses scattered around! The whole underground felt highly advanced and its architecture allowed for the castles and houses to blend well together.

Even in such limited space, the castle stood out and other houses didn't get overshadowed by it. Rather than overshadowed, the owners of such houses could be proud to have their territory close to the castles.

It was highly advanced and unique underground world that Tetsuya had been intrigued by.

"How is it going?" Tetsuya stopped thinking about the bloodsucker, but focused on his teammate that had been trying to tame the silver bird.

It didn't thrash around at all and rather enjoyed Millia's hands that had been stroking its feathers for a while now.

The influence of bloodsucker made this Silver Bird different! Though it had been controlled by someone else, the bird could tell what was going on!

The lack of control over its body hurt it and so it was happy that someone finally fred it from slavery!

Millia's hands were also gentle and warm, so the bird let out faint cries that were rather content with her.

"I think I am doing fine" Millia faintly smiled, "I want to be gentle with this bird The moment it stopped thrashing around, I immediately went to hug and I think it works"

[The Pet Game Rune

Silver Bird Leader has been feeling content with your touch.]

Ding!

Quest!

[Be more honest! Touch itself is not enough to tame the beast!]

The quest was brief and simple!

The mini game rune also assessed the bird's feelings through its unstoppable might and passed good tips for Millia to tame it with.

Indeed, she had to be honest with the bird!

"Do you like when I stroke you?" She leaned down and whispered faintly.

Her stroking became even better as Millia folded and unfolded her fingers around its feathers! It seemed like she had some good sense of touch!

However, Millia also attacked with her gentle voice!

The silver bid let out a faint cry that agreed with her.

The moment it did so, Millia whispered her honest desire, "I would like you to be my companion! I will feed you, take care of you and we will together survive in this world" Being honest was really good.

Millia didn't need to think of any underhanded methods and just spoke about her goal with big eyes!

The bird stopped moving and its eyes went up.

Those eyes were back to their natural color, all blue and genuine as well.

If not Tetsuya and this woman, then how long would it take for the bird to taste the freedom once again? It thought like that, then let out shriek!

This shriek had been translated by the Pet Game Rune!

[Silver Bird wants to become your beast companion!]

[Yes!]

[Silver Bird has become your beast companion! Name it]

"Oh Name" Millia hadn't thought about it at all and she got surprised by the sudden quest. She closed her eyes and pondered for a little, then whispered quietly, "Symphy"

The silver bird lear, Symphy, immediately took a liking to the name which didn't have much meaning behind it!

It raised its feathers, then flew up with powerful might! It then landed on Millia's shoulder and pecked Millia's hair a little.

She laughed loudly, "It tickles! Haha!" She was so happy that Tetsuya's lips curled up from her voice alone.

"Congratulations," He added.

"Thank you, Mr. Narashi!" Millia was all smiles!

Ashley also left a nice comment and both of them left the hidden cave.

Their return to the city was undisturbed as Silver Bird's appearance frightened other birds and changed their thoughts about those two humans.

-

Tetsuya didn't share the news with anyone.

He learned that no one knew about real bloodsuckers, but his own rank was also E, so his access to the information was highly limited.

He knew that bloodsuckers had been preparing something, though.

Why? Because they never made an appearance using beasts. There were some rumors about people disappearing from time to time, but those were merely villagers that no one could be bothered with.

It was clear that some plan was being utilized by those bloodsuckers and that those beasts gathering the blood was just one of its parts.

Although it looked impossible for the Rainbow Adventurers to clear the bloodsuckers saga on their own, Tetsuya called Skylar and Marre here through a letter.

It took some time because passing messages in this world had been tiresome ever since old times

"Landlady prepared chicken for today's dinner, Mr. Narashi." Millia spoke brightly.

Since the letter was bound to take some time, Millia and Tetsuya had been together for more than a week already.

She found such a lifestyle really comfortable and looked forward to tomorrow way more than before.

"Again chicken?" Tetsuya rolled his eyes, "We should go to a more expensive inn"

"But it's tasty" Millia interrupted, her eyes going down from this mistake.

Tetsuya was a boss of Rainbow Adventurers, so he expected her to be careful of her words. Though he planned to break that barrier while being alone with her as he never had been in a strict and stern relationship with women.

Even his former bosses from part-time jobs had been close and easy-going with him. The same couldn't be said about other co-workers and jealousy was given back then!

Tetsuya got reminded a little about his past and closed his eyes with slight melancholy.

"Did I say something bad?" Millia misunderstood and felt pain around her heart.

Her Symphy let out a few cries to lend its support, but it didn't seem to help her at all.

Tetsuya belatedly noticed it and just laughed it off, "I thought about my family. Don't think too much about it."

"Yes" Millia still looked down, so Tetsuya decided to just spar with her and her beast companion to brighten the mood.

Some physical activity was always good and they could speak through battle even better!

The duo sparred until dinner, then had a nice rest in their room after dinner.

For rest, Tetsuya used to play with his MOBA Game Board, read books and just practice some swings with his sword! That was his rest that took some time.

On the other hand, Millia took care of her beast companion and also tried to read a few books to enhance her vocabulary.

After some time, Millia finally could reunite with her brother!

"Marre! Eh" What seemed to be a good reunion quickly turned into shock as Marre's beast companion was different.

It was a cub as per Tetsuya's quest, but this cub had been so aggressive that Marre's body was full of scars.

Even now, the small Tooth Tiger's cub hung on Marre's arm with its teeth deeply buried within flesh.

Its tail kept wriggling around with content, but those eyes were narrowed with clear anger!

"Hi Sis" Marre awkwardly scratched his cheek!

He didn't mind much as the tiger cub already got accepted by Pet Game Rune and used its powers to fight together with Marre against Tooth Tigers!

It was a strong cub that had high potential, but it was a cub that had a lot of pride!

"All he cares is strength" For strength, he would go against his own race!

Such a small cub yet he was so gutsy and ferocious!

"Y-You have to take care of the cub and yourself too, Marre" Millia gently reminded her brother, then burst out laughing as Skylar and Tetsuya had been already laughing hard at this sibling reunion!
