Chapter 502 - Why Are Vampires So Stubborn?
-----
Frank noticed what Clementine said and wondered if she could simply end the battles already. It was enough and there were only two battles left, they had won.
However, he didn't wanted to say it because the two girls coming up next were very excited to fight… Cathyl and Vheslia.
Nonetheless, he wondered with Matsuo why the Vampires felt this way.
"Why are Vampires so stubborn?" wondered Frank, as Matsuo laughed a bit.
"Well, this happens because Vampires are not really a fighting race, you see. They don't see the victors as the ones worthy due to mere strength and think of them as if they had hurt their pride. Instead of admiring the victors they tend to just grow angered at them or perhaps grow saddened and depressed themselves…" sighed Matsuo.
"After this is over, I will make them all go through hellish training, so they stop being so gloomy." Said Frank.
"I don't think they'll like that… Vampires are a race of inherently strong beings, due to this, they don't value strength through training as much, as you've seen already, every single Vampire in these fights went through a lot of hardships, something they rarely go through, which made them awaken innate power they didn't even knew they had before. This is all because they don't train well." Said Matsuo.
"You're right. I suppose it will be hard to convince them, although leveling up shouldn't be hard. I also want them to get Mana Cores to get as much of an advantage as possible… Oh well, there's still some things to get done here, so I shouldn't get too ahead of myself." Said Frank.
"You're right." Said Matsuo.
Frank's thoughts were flashing through with many considerations of the recent battle, as he held Orb sleeping over his arms, he began to consider the fight that had happened and what had he seen through it all.
After considering all that Orb had done, he began to ponder the amazing growth of Kamei. And even more, the power she developed using holy light magic.
She also had the power of Earth Magic, which she had also been developing silently. After all, her first spell was an earth magic one at first which Frank had given to her through a grimoire.
However, her strongest magic element was holy light, which she used through this entire fight. The ability to shape and materialize magic was a very high leveled magic conjuration that not even Gods could properly do sometimes, but that she had mastered to completely insane levels.
He couldn't help but feel proud of his little sister as he smiled tenderly at her playing with his son Alexander.
"Baaa!" the cute fox boy was waving his fluffy tails as Kamei petted him and cuddled with him.
"Who's the cutest little fox boy? You are! Yes, youuu!" said Kamei, touching the little nose of Alex as he giggled adorably.
Alex stood up and hugged her auntie as she hugged him back.
"You seem to be growing very fond of my son, huh?" asked Frank with a smile.
"Hehe, he's such a cutie. He's like my new little brother now." Said Kamei.
"Oi! T-That's MY little brother though!" said Annabelle interrupting the conversation.
"Nee-sama!"
Alexander cutely raised his arms as Annabelle was hugged by her little brother, and she carried him around.
"Gah…! I-I guess she really prefers his sister!" said Kamei.
"Wait, is he a siscon?!" wondered Frank.
"Aren't you one too?" laughed Kamei.
"W-What? And you are a brocon too!" said Frank.
"Haha! So we are throwing bombs now," giggled Kamei.
"It was pretty obvious. Well, I still love you a lot, you're my beloved little sister." Said Frank.
"Aww… Nii-sama…" said Kamei, as she hugged her brother tightly.
"You did a good work there. I am very proud of you." Said Frank.
"Really?" asked Kamei.
"Yeah, really! Actually, I am pretty surprised about how you pulled through the victory; you used the same Light Clone I use! But… you can use it so much better… How?!" asked Frank.
"Fuehehe, surprised?! This is what training does! And I have a way better affinity for it, it seems. I also learned Hinata's techniques and al her ways of using it, which enhanced my fighting capabilities greatly as well." Said Kamei.
"Wait, Hinata! I had forgotten that she was the inventor of that technique." Said Frank.
"Yeah, she mentioned how you've ignored her despite that time she offered to teach you! So she avenged herself by teaching me all she knew instead to you, and she's refusing to teach anyone else anymore, so I am inheriting her legacy. She said she's too old to continue doing fighting, so she's just going to do shopkeeping." Said Kamei.
"I-I see… Well, she has been doing that already. But I get it. Hinata is a good girl- woman. Did you see her real body? Was she really a grandma?" asked Frank.
"Not really, she looked almost the same as her clones, but her hair was silvery-white. They said around the Monk Clan that she uses a special technique to maintain herself youthful despite being quite old." Said Kamei.
"I see… Does she has kids by any chance?" wondered Frank.
"Nope, not really… She mentioned she was interested in you and kind of liked you, but you just ignored her." Said Kamei.
"Ugh… D-Don't hurt me like that. I am not that inconsiderate…" sighed Frank.
"Well, its up to you if you want to give it a go or not, but don't feel forced to be with every girl that suddenly likes you, brother, you should choose and take into consideration what you want." Said Kamei.
"I know, I will think about it. At most, I want to be her friend- Oh, I guess you girls are finally going." Said Franke, as he saw Cathyl and Vheslia who had changed attire into armor and magical robes in the changing room.
"Yep, we are ready to fight. I can't wait to show you what I am made of sweetie." Said Cathyl, as she petted Frank.
"It's gonna be fun!" said Vheslia, as she was excited to showcase her monstrous magic.
"Good luck, I am counting on you two girls." Said Frank.
