"So what do you think of the ga so far? I've only played for a few days but it has felt really intense. I feel like I have grown even stronger"
Luna eyes showed just how curious she was about Leos own experience leading up to the village.
Luna then noticed the bloodstains on Leos clothes. Barry and Leo felt the surrounding temperature drop several degrees and a rumbling noise ca from sowhere within Lunas body. The light in her eyes dimd and red trails of smoke rose from her body: Bloodlust given physical form.
"Who... Who.. am I going to have to execute for hurting my baby brother!"
Lunas voice was emotionless as she stared at the blood on her brothers clothes. Leo could feel sweat dripping down his back as he recognized that his sister was beyond furious now. Even with her adorable rabbit ears, both Barry and Leo couldn't help but be a tiny bit afraid.
"Sis it's not my blood! "It's blood from the 5 Goblins I killed. I'm Level 2 now!"
Leo grabbed his sisters shoulders in an attempt to get her to focus on him before she charged off sowhere and caused unspeakable havoc. . Thankfully, his desperate plan worked as Lunas eyes regained so light
"You are Level 2 already?! I still haven't reached level 2 yet. Stingy old man doesn't give much Exp to level up!"
Lunas eyes turned to glare at Barry, feeling wronged that her little brother had surpassed her.
"I'm not an old man! And it can't be helped. You are supposed to gather a foundation before you face off with monsters. Inexperienced hunters may die if they aren't careful around monsters like goblins. Not everyone can be lucky like your brother and survive an encounter with a..Wait a second, did you just say you killed 5 goblins?!"
Barry retorted, trying to justify himself but was instead shocked by the information Leo had nonchalantly blurted out.
"Yeah. It was really rough fighting 3 of them alone at the sa ti but I managed." Leo shrugged.
Barry could feel his jaw dropping as he looked at what he could only describe as a little monster in the making. Luna puffed up her chest with pride, giving the Lumberjack a smug grin as if to show off that she was proud to have such a talented little brother. Her anger quickly fading when she found out the monsters that tried to bully her brother were already dead.
"By the way Sis. What do your stats look like? I didn't really have a baseline to what is considered good"
Leos curiosity rose as he looked at his sister with a pleading gaze. She could tell he wanted to see her stat page. Letting out a sigh conceded to his request.
"Oh what am I gonna do with you~...Alright [Status].
The status screen showed up before Lunas eyes and with a little bit of fiddling, it quickly beca visible to Leo as well.

"So how is it?" Luna asked, eyes shining brightly as she expected her brother to praise her for being so strong.
"It is exactly what I expected from you Sis...."
Leo smile was twitching as he, tried not to laugh . Having grown up with her, he knew that behind her usually calm cool exterior that she showed to others, Luna was in actuality an airhead. While she may be a genius in the sense of physicality, she was a lost cause when it ca to academia.
However, Leo did not have the guts to tell her that as he knew that it would end in one of two ways: He either gets punched or makes her cry again. None of those were ideal, especially the punch since he had almost died from a re hug. The thought of taking a punch from her made him shiver.
'Nope. No way!'
Leo ntally shook his head. It was always better to play it safe and complint her.
"You are really amazing Luna!"
Lunas cheek puffed her cheeks as if she sensed sothing was off with the praise Leo was giving her. She narrowed her eyes, shooting him a suspicious glare
"Is it because of my low intelligence and wisdom stats?"
Leo gulped nervously, eyes trembling as he ntally cursed his sisters senses. Why the hell were they so unnecessarily sharp in cases like this?!
Trying to hide his nervousness, Leo tilted his head and tried to act as innocently as possible
"I have no idea what you are talking about Sis..."
Leo thought that his poker face was pretty good and had hid his expression well but Lunas suspicion beca a fact in her mind as her little brothers tail was tucked close to his body and his cat ears were laid flat against his head, showing that he was nervous just like any other typical cat.
'He's so cute as a kitty!'
Luna ntally took note of that as she glared at him. However no matter how cute he was, such a cheeky brat needed to be punished. She let out a bestial roar as she raised her hand
"Don't you lie ya little turd!"
She quickly but powerfully flicked Leo between the eyes. A short scream ca from Leos mouth as a loud bang akin to a gunshot rang out.
[-19]
[Stunned!]
Leos head snapped back as the finger connected with his head. His feet left the ground and his eyes rolled back and his vision beca white as he lost consciousness. Smoke rose from the spot where Luna flicked his head.
Luna made a 'Hmph' noise as she crossed her arms, sowhat satisfied with the punishnt she had doled even as Leo was laid out flat on his back.
Slight twitching the only sign that he wasn't dead yet. Smoke rose from Leos forehead as Barry panicked seeing his apprentice nearly murder their brother in front of him
Barry pulled out a potion and knelt down to feed Leo. Luna looked on without saying anything but deep down felt really guilty. How could she be grateful that her brother was alive only to nearly kill him herself! However, her pride didn't allow her to apologize. Instead she crossed her arms and growled
"Did you learn your lesson? Don't ss with the majesty of the big sister!".
As the potion rapidly recovered his wounds, Leo sat up coughing a bit. He felt wronged but didn't dare say anything. He had no desire of being beaten again.
'Would there ever co a day that a younger brother could triumph over his elder sister?
He couldn't help but wonder yet he knew today was not that day.
"Thank you Mr. Barry" Leo said, turning back to face his saviour. "You have saved my life again". He said sincerely.
"No.No. There's no need to thank . I can't let a young talent like you die before you have a chance to soar"
Barrys reply was a bit sheepish, not willing to admit that his apprentice was scaring him a little bit as she reminded him of his own older sister.
Despite not saying it, Leo recognized that look in his eyes, having seen it quite often on his own face. Leo held out his hand to Barrys and whispered
"Comrade..".
Barry looked at Leos hand then at the boy himself. When he looked in his eyes, he realized what he ant. He then firmly grasped the boys hand
"Comrade!".
The two of them had ford a bond of mutual understanding: Older Sisters are scary!
Luna looked at the two n bonding and for so reason felt annoyed but chose to not act upon it. Instead she sent a ssage to Lily, telling her that she had found her brother in the ga. Lily had almost imdiately replied and said she would be there soon as her shift at the shop was over so they could party up and go questing together.
With no other choice,she sat down and waited for her friend to show up. Her eyes began roaming over her brother's body, especially in the areas around the ears and tail which looked fluffy and cute even to her eyes.
Leo noticed his sisters gaze and approached her again.
"Sis. I have a few questions I have to ask. I need to know"
he was nervous, afraid to hear the potential worst case scenario had co to fruition. He bit his lips from the anxiety of it all.
"What is happening in the real world? Am I okay? Or am I still going to die? Or....am I already dead there....?"
Luna closed her eyes before replying in a soft voice
" The doctors say that you are getting better. They are seeing noticeable improvents in real ti. Though there was one thing that surprised ."
Relief washed over Leo as he heard what he had hoped to hear. He place his hands over his heart with relief, The feeling of hearing his heartbeat had never been so comforting. A ga had sohow managed to save his life. However, the last part of his sisters statent piqued his curiosity. With a tilt of his head he asked
"What was that?".
"The doctors told that it seems that you are growing a tail"
Luna had a faint smirk on her face as she glanced at Leos tail. .
"Sorry. I dont think I heard you correctly. What did you say?"
Leo blinked his eyes in disbelief. He shook his head thinking he must have misheard her
"No you heard correctly. Sohow you are growing a tail"
She nodded her head confidently, as if it was a matter of fact before giving him a big thumbs up.
"You are gonna be even cuter soon!"
Leo could feel his sanity rapidly crumbling when he heard that.
His mind and expression was left blank, leaving only 3 words for him to say.
"WHAT THE FUCK?!"
