Chapter 155 Pats And Praises

Silver stood in front of the corpse of the knight, catching his breath.

Grabbing onto his scythe he pulled it out of the knight's skull and helmet, but upon pulling it out, the helmet crumbled to pieces. Now that he could get a proper look at the knight's face, he was surprised to see it looked like a normal human, which confused Silver as he didn't think humans could inhabit dungeons.

Shaman and Elysia had come out of hiding, approaching Silver in their fox form. Once they got close though, both Shaman and Elysia transformed back into half humans and thankfully the system put their clothes back on.

"Mother! Mama!" Silver threw his scythe into his inventory and then ran up to his parents.

Shaman opened her arms and gave Silver a hug alongside Elysia.

"You did such a good job, I'm so proud of you." Shaman started to pat Silver's head, glad that he wasn't injured.

"I have to say, for someone who's been in his new body for under a day, you got some nice moves." Elysia was rather impressed with how Silver was able to adapt to his human body.

"Hihihi~ thank you~." Silver was extremely happy and proud of himself for what he accomplished.

"Now let's head back home, I'm sure you are exhausted." Shaman was super pleased with Silver's performance and could not wait to do some fighting with him.

"Mhm, but what about that knight? He is human." Silver was rather curious if it would have been someone from the outside.

"Hmmm let me check." Shaman let go of Silver, leaving him in Elysia's arms and approached the body. Kneeling down on the floor, Shaman used [inspect] on the body.

[Beast tamer]

[Tier 4 leader]

[A human that has the power to control beasts to his will.]

[However due to him dabbling in dark arts in order to control other humans, he was exiled from his home and was forced to survive on his own.]

"I see." Shaman got the answer she needed and thanks to her being a higher level than the boss, she could even get a bit of his background.

"He used dark magic and was casted as an outsider, so I guess he built his own castle using beasts as his servants." Shaman explained it to Silver and Elysia, giving an explanation as to why he was a boss.

"Oh so he was a bad guy, okay then." Any shred of sympathy Silver had vanished in only a few seconds.

"Aha, he must take after you Elysia." Shaman was a little surprised how Silver took the news and it reminded her of Elysia.

"Well you are both my mothers, so why wouldn't I?" Silver looked up at Elysia who was struggling to deal with the cuteness.

"You're so sweet." Elysia was close to tearing up as what Silver said meant a lot to her. Elysia hugged Silver even tighter, now suffocating him in her chest.

"Careful, don't want to kill our son now." Shaman smiled, seeing as her plan of getting Elysia to be Silver's second mother was progressing smoothly.

'Elysia seems to be much more accepting now.' Shaman could tell Elysia was a bit reserved, as if she was unsure if it was something she wanted. However, with Silver hitting her in the heart with his words, Elysia has now become a lot more attached to him.

'I wonder if we could do the same with Clara.' Shaman still had no idea how to deal with Elysia's obsessiveness, but considered trying to extend it to also include Clara.

'That's not really fixing the problem though, but it can also be useful.' Shaman suspected that when Elysia goes into a very emotional state, it enhances her power quite a bit, so by taking advantage of that she could take on entire armies.

'Hmm, I need to talk to Freja about this properly, I can't figure this out on my own.' Shaman did not want to rely on others, but the situation was too complicated.

"Shaman?" Elysia was finished pampering Silver and was ready to go back home.

"Oh yes, let's get going." Shaman and Elysia grabbed Silver's hand and they made their way out of the dungeon.

<Clara POV>

Clara had found her way to a hall meant for training and was practicing some of her movements.

Clara spun in the air with her blade whips extended and upon landing retracted them into a sword. Continuing the chain, Clara used her whip blades as dual swords.and stabbed into a dummy target.

*Clap* *Clap*

"Well done, I have to say, your fighting style is quite unique." Kiruya stood at the door clapping at Clara.

"Aha thanks. What brings you here today Kiruya?" Clara holstered her weapons and walked up to Kiruya.

"Since Shaman and Elysia are out with Silver, I have come to tell you your next mission." Kiruya reached into her inventory, pulling out a piece of paper.

"So soon?" Clara thought they would have had a little more time to themselves before going out again.

"Oh you don't have to leave straight away, but it would be good if you could prepare before going."

"Oh, that's understandable." Knowing this Clara hoped to level up a bit more and get closer to tier 6.

"So, your mission is actually to make your way to elfheim and head to the capital." Kiruya started to read the contents of the mission to Clara and so far nothing seemed to be dangerous.

"You are to deliver a few items for Freja to the King and Queen."

"Hold on, what's so dangerous about this mission that we would need to prepare for it?" Clara so far thought that this mission was just a postal service.

"I'm getting there."

*ahem* "The reason why the mission is dangerous is because in order to meet with the king and queen you need to clear a tier 6 or 7 dungeon just so you can get the chance to see them."

"But couldn't Freja give us something to avoid this?" Clara figured they could be given something that would allow them to bypass the dungeon trial.

"Aha I would say yes, but Freja wants you to fight for it." Kiruya felt a little bad for them, but it was ultimately Freja's choice what they had to do.

"I guess there is no changing the mission if it was Freja's decision." Clara wasn't against the decision as it would let them grind some levels to reach the next tier while also visiting a new place.

"There is also no time limit so you can take as long as you want and once you are finished with the mission, use a communication talisman to let us know you are done." Kiruya closed the piece of paper and handed it over to Clara.

"If you can also inform the other two, that would be great and you can all leave once you are ready."

Clara nodded and stored the details of the mission in her inventory.

"If you need me I will be around the mansion and if not…. You know where." Kiruya went a little red as she did not want to openly admit where and hoped her implication was enough.

"Aha I don't think I will be disturbing you if that's the case, but thank you Kiruya." Clara knew exactly what she meant and blushed a little thinking about it.

"Anyway, bye bye~." Kiruya quickly ran off, leaving Clara behind.

'Well back to training I guess.' Clara shook her head to get rid of stray thoughts and went back to training.

<Shaman POV>

Walking back into the mansion, Shaman and Elysia were chatting away.

Once they reached the top of the stairs, they saw Clara standing in the hallway by their rooms.

"Oh hey Clara, what's up?" Shaman was curious what Clara had to say, as it looked like it wasn't small-talk judging from her demeanor.

"We were given our next mission, I just came here to pass you the details." Clara pushed off the wall she was leaning on and pulled out the paper she received from Kiruya.

Shaman grabbed it and had a look at the contents of the mission.

"Oh, I see it's just a delivery, but with a little challenge before we can actually deliver it." Shaman did not mind the mission as they got to explore a new major territory.

"We don't have a time limit so whenever we are ready we can start making our way over."

"Sweet, thanks Clara." Shaman put the mission information in her inventory.

"Well, I'm off to sleep, it is rather late now." Clara was rather exhausted as she had been training the entire day and felt her body aching.

"Alright, goodnight then, I have a little Wolf to feed and put to sleep." Shaman put her hand on Silver's head, giving him a pat.

"Night Clara." Elysia reluctantly spoke to Clara.

"Oh, haha goodnight Elysia." Clara was surprised, but was glad to see that Elysia looked like she was improving.

Clara walked off to go to her room.

Shaman and Elysia led Silver into his room so they could use the kitchen to prepare some food.

Elysia cooked up some meat for Silver as a reward for his effort.

"Thank you Mama." Silver's face was brimming with joy while devouring the food Elysia made for him.

"Well me and Elysia are going to go back to our room now, to get some rest." Shaman walked to the side of Silver so she could give her goodbyes.

"Yeah I know Mother, go have your fun with Elysia." Silver took another bite out of his meat.

"Ah." Shaman had no words as indeed Silver had been present for their activities and is regretting that she did not think much of it.

"Anyway, goodnight Silver." Shaman gave Silver a kiss on the forehead before quickly rushing away.

"Heh, goodnight naughty Mother and Mama." Silver wore a cheeky grin, wanting to see the reaction of his Mothers.

Shaman halted in her tracks as she felt her image as a pure mother was at stake.

Taking a deep breath Shaman turned to face Elysia who was blushing.

"Let's leave before he makes it worse." Shaman whispered to Elysia while grabbing her hand.

"Goodnight sweetie." Elysia quickly said goodnight before Shaman started dragging Elysia.

Exiting the room, Shaman quickly walked back to theirs.

"Okay, I'm hungry." Shaman was hoping Elysia would cook some food, but Shaman also was really eager to get started.

"Hmm? Well isn't your meal right here." Elysia took advantage of the situation and slightly lifted up her skirt.

"Oh, fuck it." Shaman found it unbelievably cheesy, but it worked as she pulled her in for a kiss.
