Athena: Ding! New mission (special)
Kasper: (annoyed) A mission at this moment?
Athena: HELP DEMON QUEEN IN REPAIRING HER MANA BOWL.
Rewards: Alchemy skill, +1 Lv, +50XP, +3 Intelligence, +2 Mana, +10m wide system storage.
Kasper: (paused and analysed then turned to look at the shivering Lyrixa) I have to this. Lyrixa...(Called out in a soothing voice)
Lyrixa: Fa... father? (Relaxed a bit)
Kasper: Yes Lyrixa
Lyrixa; Is that you father? (Trembled)
Kasper: Father? (Muttered to himself) Yes. Dear. C'mon now. Come, come...come over (reach out his hand to her)
Lyrixa: (stared at the hand then the one before her with teary eyes) Where have you been father? (Placed her hand in his and fell into his embrace) I was so scared. I was so scared father. Why did you leave? (Teared up)
Kasper: (stunned by her outburst) It's fine. I'm here now (gently stroke her silky purple hair) But I won't be for long.
Lyrixa: (released him from the embrace) But why father? Can't you just stay with me? Do you have to go?
Athena: Judging from the situation, I looks like she has lost her father. Something probably trigger her seeing you as her dead father. (Whispers)
Kasper: (stared at the teary figure before him) She must have gone through a lot. Losing her father, taking over the throne, putting on a fierce and cold face meanwhile broken and longing for someone's embrace inside. She's so fragile. (Thought quietly) Lyrixa look at me.
Lyrixa: (slowly raised her head to look at him)
Kasper: (held out her hand and gently felt her pulse as he spoke to her) I have to return to where the dead are, I can stay on the mainland. Do you understand?
Lyrixa: (hesitated but then nodded) Hmm
Kasper: Guess I'll just take advantage of this moment. (thought) I need to you trust the human man you keep. There is a mole in the kingdom that I can't really lay my hands on. I want you to believe him, is that okay?
Lyrixa: Hmm (nodded agreeing)
Kasper: That's good. (Let go of her wrist after feeling her pulse)
Athena: Health stats, scanning
Name: Lyrixa
Rank: Legendary rank
Mana: 150 (-350)
Strength: 15 (-35)
Speed and endurance: 20 (-30)
Intelligence: 10
Kasper: (dumbfounded at the results) she has real lost some of her power drastically. (Frowned)
Lyrixa: (eyes widened and stared at the one before her) Sir Kasper?
Kasper: (put on a confused face as an act) I'm sorry your majesty, I'm sorry if my request startled you. I accept any punishment. (Fell on his knees)
Lyrixa: (stared emotionlessly at him) Did you see me talking to anyone?
Kasper: Talking to someone? No your majesty, when was that your majesty?
Lyrixa: (narrowed her gaze at him) Nevermind. Just forget it.
Kasper: oh ohk.
Lyrixa: I sent for you sir Kasper. (Put on a serious face)
Kasper: Yes your majesty. (Conducted himself)
Lyrixa: There is a great mana wave energy approaching the kingdom. It's been 3 days now and they will get here sooner or later.
Kasper: Mana wave? So I wasn't the only one who felt it.
Lyrixa: You felt it?
Kasper: Yes your majesty. Sir Plagg and Khaos were next it me but felt nothing.
Lyrixa: (narrowed her eyes) He's just a human with big brain. But he was able to feel the strong mana wave from miles. Just who is he? Only cultivators in human realm have the ability to sense mana wave. And from my keen observation, he's more stronger than when he was sent here for trial. Could he be a cultivator? (Thought)
Kasper: What's with that piercing look? Do I have something on my face? Or did she find other about me taking advantage of the moment as her father, Athena? (His mind screamed in fear) She's going to kill me right Athena? (Concealed his fear)
Athena: "_" (stayed quiet)
Lyrixa: it's fine anyways, We have to strengthen the force around the kingdom. Do you have any ideas you can bring up?
Kasper: (thought for a while)
Athena: Ding! Bonus mission
1. Help demon queen (pending)
2. Save demon plants (new)
3. Strengthen the kingdom force (new)
Kasper: (speechless) Yet another task (rolled his eyes) I currently do not have any idea in mind, but I'll do well to visit you first thing tomorrow once I come up with one.
Lyrixa: Hmm (nods then stretch her wrist) Father told me to trust this human. He's the only one I can truly rely on now. (Thought)
Kasper: Uhn? (Stared at the wrist)
