Chapter 20

As I left the table, Nofice appeared behind Bai Feng and unfolded a magic formation at an incredibly fast speed, although no one knew exactly what kind of magic it was. However, everyone could sense that it was a deadly magic formation that could take lives with just a single movement.

"If you dare to disrespect the master again, I will make sure you lie in darkness forever." Nofice bent down, his silver bell-like voice and icy tone right next to Bai Feng's ear, enough to freeze anyone in minutes.

"Nofice, this is my home!" Hanya said helplessly.

"Alright, I won't joke anymore~~" Nofice quickly switched modes with no gaps and a bright smile appeared on his face, making him resemble a gentle girl next door. Nofice sat down without any manners and the moment he picked up his chopsticks, he knew exactly whose dish it was.

"Qin Ying and I often eat the dishes made by the master!" Nofice remained kind, and the previous expression was difficult to recall. Even this smile wiped it away completely.

"Are you showing off, Nofice?" Hanya said indignantly.

"Hanya, is this person your classmate? Introduce him!" Hanya's aunt noticed that Nofice and I were wearing clothes with the same school emblem, so she guessed that we were classmates.

"Nofice is Qin Yang's familiar."

"I am the master's body pillow~~"

"Nofice, don't say things that could be misunderstood!" Hanya led me to the balcony. Before closing the balcony door, I had to stop Nofice from talking nonsense. I felt that Nofice's words would make Hanya jealous, and jealousy would make her feel down, making it difficult for me to have a conversation with Hanya's uncle.

"Whoosh!" I hadn't even started the conversation yet! Several surgical scalpels flashed like lightning into the wall. It would take many years of holding a surgical scalpel to be able to use it like this. However, the technique was strange, different from the usual medical scalpel usage, or rather, it had some fancy moves within, and it looked familiar. It was very similar to Hanya's master's swordsmanship, almost like an evolved version.

"Why didn't you dodge?"

"I could see! Your knife and Hanya's mother's sword are the same." I wasn't pretending to be calm, I could truly see it. With a human body, some training or magic augmentation was needed. In past battles, there was always magic augmentation on my eyes, but after all those years of fighting, I no longer needed it.

"Have you seen my sister? Did Hanya take you to her?"

"Yes! Just a moment ago, she used the same technique on me, but I thought it was her brother."

"Hey hey, how could you think I'm older than her...... Never mind, don't change the topic! Now, it's between you and Hanya. I don't know what is going on between you two, but I do know that Hanya is not interested in any males, even despising them. That includes me. But today, she said the words 'fiance', so I want to know if you can protect her from harm."

"I have proven my ability to Hanya's mother, and I successfully left her martial arts studio unharmed."

"I'm talking about her emotional well-being. I want you to know that whatever we do to protect is Hanya's heart. But Qin Yang, I seem to remember you having many girls around you, and they are all very good. Am I wrong? The little prince of the Qin family!"

"I feel like our conversation is biased. You might think from a man's perspective that I have many girls around me, therefore Hanya might be harmed by me. On the contrary, she feels being with me is enough, regardless of anything else... In the end, men can never understand a girl's thoughts." The last sentence was whispered to me privately: Never try to guess a girl's mind.

Hanya's uncle paced back and forth, finding it difficult to accept such sudden news. "But I'm worried!"

"Let time prove it." I needed to end the conversation and I was really hungry!

"Let me calm down!" Hanya's uncle took a deep breath and leaned against the balcony railing.

I really don't know why today has been so difficult, but I do know that I have learned a lot today and gained insight into Hanya's family.

"By the way, why does your family hunt vampires?"

"We are the first family born from the union of humans and demons. Our ancestors believed that we had stronger abilities compared to ordinary humans, whether it be affinity with elements or the manipulation of magic. We wanted to prove our worth and assert our dominance over other humans. In doing so, we ended up fighting against the vampires, who survive by feeding on human blood. We have continued to grow despite the battles with vampires."

"What about your reason for becoming a veterinarian?"

"Because I don't like this kind of life. I believe that most humans are not belligerent, including me and my daughter."

"I don't like it either, but there's nothing I can do."

"You sound helpless. We humans are always helpless."

"Indeed, humans..."

Coming back from the cold outside, I felt more at ease. Finally, I could enjoy dinner with pleasure.

"Nofice, you should be at school!"

"Master, everyone is looking for you!"

"Looking for me?"

"Because the student council members are looking for you. We received a tip that you and Hanya have been going in and out of a lingerie shop. Also, the vice president assigned you a task but you had someone else do it. So the student council unanimously believes that you and Hanya are having an affair!"

"What? Tip? Affair? What's going on?"

"Everyone is rushing here!"

"So, Nofice, did you come here to let them know I'm here? Don't play tricks on me!" But I thought it didn't matter since Nofice and I haven't done anything.

Three minutes later, I made a decision. I resolutely entered the kitchen and prepared a sumptuous dinner for everyone. Since the girls came looking for me, let them all enjoy a meal here, as if it were a family dinner. Hopefully, Hanya's uncle won't mind having more people for dinner.

But suddenly, I realized that I seemed to be getting used to being surrounded by girls. I make decisions based on the situation without needing Black's guidance.

That night, I still appeared somewhat restless, but it didn't cause much disturbance. Everyone sat together, laughing and having a good time. It felt really nice. With a hint of jealousy from the girls, it's better to just let things happen naturally, or maybe I should learn from a majestic lion and exude an aura of dominance, making the harem more stable.

And when midnight arrived, it was time for Black.
