Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System Chapter 13: Calling His Sister

At that ti, the top 1% had been busy fighting among themselves and had not yet reached an agreent.

This allowed so people to grow.

"I don't care about that, Alex, as long as you have sothing to do. Just don't do it half-heartedly; do the best you can," Luca said.

"Of course, Mom, don't worry. You know ; if I decide to do sothing, I'll make my way to the top."

Luca then transferred the money to him and left him alone.

'I should call Sis then. Mom only said I couldn't make my own Guild, but if it's my sister, there should not be a problem,' he thought.

Alex had a few friends from college and high school who had beco hunters, but he had barely talked to them after graduating.

He needed soone he could trust to handle the Guild, as he planned to fake many items they brought back from the dungeon.

He also needed to find people from the Dungeon Association to help manipulate the information.

As the phone started connecting, Alex said, "Sis, are you busy?"

He could hear ragged breathing from the other side. "Just... say what you want."

He had wanted to ask more about her situation, but he knew Emily would just get annoyed.

After that incident, her personality changed completely; she was cold and spoke harshly, and Alex had gotten used to it.

"What hunter rank are you now?"

Emily felt it was odd, as Alex usually never cared about it, but her situation didn't allow her to think much.

BANG! BOOM!!!

Alex could hear explosions from the other side.

"Just what are you doing, Emily? If you're busy, I can call again later."

BANG! BANG! BANG! KA-BOOM!!

Alex heard machine guns firing in bursts, followed by a big explosion.

The connection then beca static for a while before being cut off.

Alex looked at his phone screen with a raised eyebrow, his eyes filled with worry.

'Just what is she doing?' he thought, imagining various possible scenarios, each making him worry even more.

Just as he was about to call the hunter association to find out Emily's location, the phone rang again.

"Sis, are you alright!?" Alex quickly asked.

Heavy breathing ca from the other end, followed by a sigh.

"I'm fine. I'm just doing so stupid cheap mission that isn't worth the pay.

I'm still a two-star hunter; you know it's insanely hard to raise our rank, right?"

Hearing her words, Alex was surprised. He had heard about the difficulty before, but he had thought it was just a rumor.

His sister had an S-Grade ability, and it had been five years; Alex thought she should be at least a three-star hunter by now.

"Well, I need a guild. I had planned to make it myself, but Mom forbade it. You know how she is after that day.

So, I was thinking of you being the one to establish it."

"You what?" Emily then laughed, doubting what she had heard.

"You're saying you want to build a guild? You, who always spent all day at ho reading novels and playing gas?"

She had expected Alex to laugh with her, but when he remained silent, she added, "You're not joking?"

"I am serious! Why would I joke about sothing like that, Emily?"

Alex felt wronged as everyone seed to act like he had never done anything serious.

"And why would you be serious about that? I know you, Alex; you just love wasting away at ho all day. So tell , why do you suddenly want a guild?"

Alex then told her what had happened, of course, modifying it beforehand to hide the part where he had gotten the system.

He did this because he didn't want the hassle of convincing Emily that he wasn't lying.

Even in a world filled with superpowers, the existence of a system that often only showed up in novels and ani would not be taken seriously.

"So, who is this Faerith? Do you like her? I never knew you were into older won," Emily said with a chuckle.

"I told you I'm doing that because of the artifact she's researching. I am sure it will bring our family to new heights!"

"Yeah… yeah... And the artifact you're talking about has shown no results until now, right?

Who are you trying to fool, my dear older brother?

There are tons of artifacts with no results, each claid to have a lot of potential, and you know that none give results!

In the past, I already told you to use your abilities to help with the guild, but you kept making excuses!

At first, I thought you were just coping with the incident, but after 5 years, I realized you're just being lazy, Alex!"

"Hey, you say it like I didn't miss Dad at all," Alex retorted back.

"Hmph... and? You don't need to mince words with like with Mom, Alex. I know you think he's already dead."

Alex sighed, "You know why.

My ability makes think everything is based on data, and the highest probability is..."

Emily cut him off with a stern tone. "Shut it. I'm not stupid. I know."

"But just like Dad, who also had abilities with his brain, he should have known if things beca problematic.

The other guild mbers weren't weaklings either."

In the Suzaku Guild, Alex's father had recruited two three-star hunters with SS rank abilities.

The only other possibility was that they had sohow entered a portal and gotten stuck inside.

However, Alex never shared this with his sister or mom. He was afraid they would recklessly run into the portal.

"Let's not talk about that. I also hope Dad survived. So, what do you think about my offer?"

"We need another hunter to be the face of our Guild, Alex."

"If the Campbell group decides to create a new one after the Suzaku incident, we can't do it half-heartedly.

If only a two-star hunter like is inside, it will give us bad publicity, you know," Emily said.
