Legendary Shelter Survival Guide

"Look, I know it seems like an ability that sounds very cruel but you don't have to look at it that way, it's better than you think."

"Then how should I look at it? You are taking so long to get on point!"

"Alright alright, calm down. What I am saying is that... if the soul of the fury always stays with the body from what you said. It means that when you learn the skill which can help get the souls inside the bodies, the fury can come back too."

"Yeah, but it will take a long long time, longer than you expect."

"But you will get there someday, right?"

"Yes, but won't it be too much for this thing? To follow its body every day while not being able to be in control. Won't it be scarring?"

"Damn it, Sandra, you're overthinking. It's going to be near its corpse for as long as it exists anyway. Why do you think this will be any different? You're giving this motherfucker a new chance at life. Someday, you will be able to explain the situation to it. It may be soon, it may be late, doesn't matter, it will come one day.

Got it?"

Her expression changed multiple times, from shock, to sad to even approval.

In the end, she fell silent and only caressed the fur of the creature with a pained expression. There was more to this topic than she was letting out, Lucas could tell yet she was not going to spill it out anytime soon. Explore more stories at My Virtual Library Empire

'I can force it out of her but what will that get me? Disloyalty and spite? No, thank you.'

"You are okay with it now, right?"

"Yes…"

"Then, is the experiment done? Do we go back now or do you have something else in mind?"

"Our agreement is done but if you don't mind, can we try leveling up a little? I want to use him for a battle too."

"Oh oh oh, that's a great idea. Let me find some for you."

Lucas with happiness traveled with her yet something was different. After some minutes of marveling, he finally had to speak up.

"What the fuck, you even got a mount now?" He said with a grumpy mood. Sandra was sitting on the undead's back comfortably while he traveled on foot.

"Hehe~ You jealous?"

"Yes, I am. Damn it, everyone seems to be getting good skills aside from me."

"Ugh, just stop. I don't want to hear a noble's cry about money when he is sitting in a castle."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Do I have to explain everything to you? My god, how does Sarah bear with you? It's annoying!"

"Shut up, I am a catch!" Lucas said a loud in a dramatic tone that came out on its own, even he was surprised about it.

"Ah~ I know that. But you are high maintenance so I stopped trying to get you a long time ago."

'Damn it, why did she have to say that…' Lucas didn't want to get involved in this topic as it was just too much.

He had become one of those guys who are too dense to understand what's happening around them when it comes to girls. He knew that, but this time, it was at an extreme.

"… Sorry about that. Bill told me about that."

"It doesn't matter, we already knew you wouldn't get involved anyway."

"Hm?"

"See? You are too green! Dummy, it was because we wanted Sarah to start taking her feelings seriously. We already knew you were into her. But she was unsure."

"… You sisters are dangerous," Lucas said grimly, yet he was actually pretty shocked.

The ones he felt were the weakest were playing such big games with the leader of such a territory.

'I am late to understand this but I guess it's still early.' He thought while making a mental note to not judge everything by how strong they were.

There was more to people other than being strong that Lucas knew yet still didn't implement in his decision-making.

"I know, you should be careful of us," Sandra interjected in his thought process with a smug tone.

"Right right."

They playfully bantered with each other for a long time before Lucas got the feeling to finally say it.

"Haha… now that I realize, you are like a sister to me. Well, older sister. Hahaha...-WOAH!"

Lucas dodged her speedily upcoming hand toward the back of his head with a higher speed than hers.

"I am not old!"

"Hahahaha…" Lucas couldn't hold himself back from the laughter this time.

Sandra didn't say much for a long time, she was mad, Lucas could tell yet he didn't say anything further. He wanted to tease her too and it was only fair.

She had been playing with him for a long time, what's a little from his side?

"Wow, but to get sister-zoned so blatantly, I am disappointed." She said after some time in an annoyed tone.

"Sister zoned? Is that even a thing? But more importantly, didn't you say you had no intentions of being with me? That it was all to get Sarah's attention on me?"

Lucas proudly looked at her finding his argument quite good.

Yet her ears became red, and her expression looked quite embarrassed.

Before Lucas could say anything, her mount became faster and now they were far from each other.

Lucas stood there for a few seconds trying to understand what happened.

'Was she blushing?' He thought with a hand on his chin. He was standing in the middle of the dangerous forest with no worries.

'Nah, it's one of those tricks of hers, I am sure. Can't believe she almost made me fall for it again.'

Lucas once again proud of his emotions ran with a grin plastered on his face, but was it really a trick from her side? Or the reaction was genuine? Nobody knew.

Lucas couldn't believe the speed of the fury, it was moving even faster than him which had not been the case for a long time.

He looked at his free points that had accumulated quite a lot.

Without a thought, he added two new points in it not minding the fact that it will hurt.
