The Crazy one of the Twins (Trash of the Count's Family)

Chapter 8 - Departure & Fight?

Recap:

Once the interrogation was done, I picked the still unconscious wolf in my arms and headed back to my room. Only to have Count Deruth arrive to see the mess. "Why do you have a wolf in your arms?"

"... You do know that there were only 2 humans in my cottage, right? One is Gloria and the other is me... everyone else aren't human." I answered coolly before leaving his side. When we reached, I set Blake on the bed and everyone who needed to rest from the fight we had just now. Not long later I had Gloria bring food for them, as I joined my family on the dinner table.

It was a relatively peaceful dinner as Basen and Lily asked me all sort of questions. While Violan, Cale and Deruth listened to this conversation.

As the preparation for the departure was on the way, there was only 1 carriage and an odd extra horse in the group which made everyone confuse. Everyone thought the horse was originally for Choi Han. "It will be a tight squeeze." Cale noticed as among the whole group, there was a sole maid coming along, along with the kittens. In fact, Hans was going to sit inside as well. "The horse was meant for you, right?" the short haired red head asked.

"Well, I'm find without it. I will just nap on the roof." the long haired red head commented, before he jumps onto the roof of the carriage. "Take care of Gloria for me." he smirked before fox and ferret jumped up to join their master.

"Is he always like that?" Cale asked the sole maid.

"Of course. It would be strange if master isn't like that." Gloria answered and Hans agreed.

"Yup. That was how he is the whole time. Even when he saved us." Hans added, "Yup. Young master Cale and Lance saved us from that day."

"Witnessing Master Lance use magic to slow the flood and Master Cale reaching out for us. We are always in your debt." Gloria said with sparkles in her eyes.

"Yup. We will serve you, even if you throw stuff at us." Hans agreed.

"Well, Master Lance doesn't throw stuff at me. He just sleeps in and never feeds himself. Then when he woke from the last wipe, he started eating more and making weird things. Especially food and his sweet tooth is gone. But it's still master, so there is nothing to worry about."

While the maid and butler talked about their past with both masters, Cale realized that his brother is more than meets the eye. And the said brother is napping on the roof with a magic device which dispense out cool air. After he was told not to wear his temperature altering coat. "It's hot."

On route, Lance had created a tent which won't be blown off by the wind of their speed and it is producing very cool air, while many soldiers are taking an advantage of. He had even occasionally popped his head down and offered them some iced snacks, before sharing it with everyone. It was only when there were bandits, then it got noisy. As the knights went to work, the sole mage created a barrier around the carriage while everyone worked.

"Hey coward on the roof. Fight me!" one of the bandits yelled out and both Gloria and Hans face palmed.

"They have a death wish don't they?" Hans asked out.

"Indeed they do." Gloria agreed.

"What? What do you mean?"

"Does young master not know? Master Lance is the strongest person in the county, both in magic and combat. When you were younger, someone purposely pushed you down. And master Lance pushed the person off a cliff. But they didn't die."

"They never stepped foot in the county again." after the pair explained there was a cold breeze and scream, before the whole fight ended. "as expected of master Lance."

As the bandits were dealt with and they continued on with the said mage going back to sleep and with that ice tent still working it's magic. When they set up camp for the night, Lance finally moved from his spot on top of the carriage roof.

"We setting up camp? Right, I want to sleep some more." they yawned as their exclusive maid pushes him off to set up a complicated setting, while the others tend to the other master. After the set up was done, with the help of a more proactive Lance, dinner was served and it was rabbit soup. A rabbit the abnormal raven haired teen caught.

The soldiers were fed first, and Lance was eating a lunch box which appeared out of nowhere. "Where did you get that?" Cale asked.

The other just answers with a smirk, but not saying anything else other than that. As everyone prepared to eat and rest, but Choi Han wanted to train more, after Cale gave him full faith that everyone will protect him, even if he doesn't know how to fight. "Lance nim, can you spar with me?" Choi Han asked long haired red head, who is playing with the little red fox.

"I don't mind." they smirked and pushed themselves off the ground as Akatsuki skipped over to Cale and the kittens. As Blake arrived with dinner made by Beacrox in hand. Everyone just backed away from the mess. "Dear Misty, Jean, if you don't mind." they asked and the ferret and crow created a barrier around the place. "So, how are we going to do this, Choi Han san?"
