Chapter 7 - Why Him/Pt 6.

"What do you want." I asked while opening my left eye. The smile dropping on my face.

The cat girl raised her hands and said with a chuckle "Dude you need to seriously chill out. I want to join your syndicate."

"Do you seriously think I'm fucking stupid or something. Oh sure you can joi…yeah no" I thought while waving my left hand. The dice swords starting to vanish into mana particles.

The cat girl looked at her absurdly sharp black nails and said annoyingly "Helloooo…do you speak bullshit or som…"

"If you want to joint my syndicate. First I'll need to verify your abilities and information." I said with a genuine kind closed eyes as smile on my face.

The cat girl froze with a flabbergasted look on her face and said with a snicker "Dude…you need to become a stage actor, you sure know how to change faces quickly."

My lip twitch unnoticeably.

"Sure…so are you going to do some sort of spell on me." Asked the cat girl with a confused look on her face.

I held up my right hand. A dice materializing in it and said calmly "Dice magic, fate reading."

"Hu…" Said the cat girl confusedly, only for her eyes to widen in shock from seeing a transparent screen appear from the dice in front of me.

"Well you have the qualifications to join my syndicate. Although your a little lacking in your magic it's understandable since we're still only 11 years old and will be limited at magic until we get our grimories at 16." I said with a kind smile on my face. It being totally fake and disturbing.

"Unfortunately I can't get any stronger at the moment. I need my grimorie. All my training and gathering forces for my syndicate was all I've been doing during five years in this world but now it feels like it was for nothing if I don't have my grimorie" I thought with the kind smile on my face still being present and not wavering in the slightest.

"WHA…HUH, IS THIS MY INFORMATION YOU PERV." Said nyx loudly from out of nowhere with a whiplashed look on her face. Somehow appearing right beside me and trying to touch the transparent screen.

I Ignored her and read over her information on the system like screen too make sure I didn't miss anything and thought with a pondering look on my face "She is way stronger than 557 of my current syndicate back ground character members, compared to her their just trash that dose not a jack shit but drink booze all day. Well at least their good as meat shields though."

*Pak *Pak* *Pak*

"Helloooo…come back to the present dude." Said nyx as she waved and snapped her fingers in front of my face.

My eyes Immediately locked with nyx's.

"Woah…bruh chill out for a sec…I'm just making sure your straight bro." Said nyx with a tonal whiplash and sighed. Her hands up in a surrendering gesture.

"Ah. Are you able to shapeshift into anything." I asked calmly and curiously.

Nyx'a face turned horrified and crossed her arms over her flat nonexistent chest and said stutteringly "Y…you perv…y…"

"Can you or not. You better answer if you want to be apart of my syndicate.Your highness." I said with a wide inhumane grin widening on my face.

Nyx had a shocked look on her face, the word your highness likely repeating inside her head.

"I can only shift into a cat. It's biologically impossible for a bearskin to shift more than what their race is born with but it consumes a lot of mana to change my size." Said nyx with a sigh. The serious expression on her face hardening.

"I finally hit a nerve" I thought as my face took on a kind closed eyed smile to fit the current mood.

Suddenly nyx snickered and bursted out laughing loudly while pointing at me and saying "GYAHAHA, dude you should see how fake your face looks right now, I totally got you."

I was frozen in place, my kind closed eyed smile completely frozen.

"Your disqualified for treating your boss like a joke." I said calmly while making the status like transparent screen disappear into mana particles with the dice as I walked past her to the dead noblewoman's body.

Nyx's face Immediately turned serious and shocked while saying loudly and stutteringly "W…wait, how am I supposed to eat and where am I gonna go. I have no money."

"Not my problem.You can be dead on the side of the road and all I will see is a door mat to my success." I said with a gentle smile as I licked my lips inhumanly and waved my hand over the noblewoman's body. It vanishing into my storage.

Nyx was silent. Her expression unknown.

I glanced back at nyx and said calmly while walking past her and knocking on the brick wall "Get lost."

*Bak* *Bak*

Suddenly a silver door uniquely designed door started materializing on the brick wall from out of nowhere.

"So convenient. Door portals powered by mana crystals and operated by a meat shield with door magic" I thought while opening the door and going inside, revealing a pub filled with background looking mercenary men and a few women.

I closed the door.

*BOOOM*

A dice sword Instantly materialized behind me my and pointed at the half closed door.

"You don't want to do this nyx. Do you want to die that badly." I asked calmly with a gentle and scary smile appearing on my face as I looked back at the feminine hand with sharp black nails gripping the door.

Nyx pushed open the door and came into the pub swaggeringly and said with a teasing look on her her face as she interlocked her arm around mines "Don't be like that.Your so mean."

I stared down at her and shoved her away from me while saying "leave now before I have my men drag your ass out."

Nyx had a surprised look on her face and said with a giggle "You wouldn't do th…"

"AYY…THE BOSS IS BACK." Said a chubby rugged looking man loudly with with a raised cup of booze in his right hand.

All the men and few women in the pub turned to me. A tall old refined man in a butler attire with a diamond shaped face, one left dark brown eye and a right blind with a scar with white slicked back hair. Coming over to me with a floating silver grimorie with a door designed on in front of him.

"Master david. Who might this be." Asked the old calmly as he waved his right hand. The door portal vanishing as the floating grimorie fell into his left hand.

I looked away from my butler named benjamin and looked straight at njyx who was hugging right my arm with absurd strength and said calmly with a sigh "She's nobo…"

"I'm his mate." Said nyx Immediately With a bright smile on her face.The pub going instantly quiet.

"The boss has a mate. She has to be lying." Said a muscular average looking woman whisperingly.

A man snickered and said just loud enough for everyone to hear "He wouldn't lose his virginity even if he d…"

*SMACK*

The man was smacked by a cloth and fell to the floor from the chair with a groan.

*Boom*

"GYAHAHA. MASTER DAD HAS CAUGHT HIMSELF A FUTURE BEAUTY. When I say HIP-HIP YALL SAY HOORAY. HIP-HIP." Said the chubby man loudly as he stood up with his booze cup raised, his pot belly being very distinguishable.

The pub was silent.

The chubby man sighed and at back down in the creaking chair. It struggling under his weight.

"Prove it then. I don't allow just anyone to get close to master david.Young lady." Said benjamin calmly as he adjusted the monocle eye glass on his left eye. His right hand pulling a blade from his suit jacket.

The atmosphere grew tense, all members in the pub grew quiet as they grab their weapons.

I stared at nyx for a moment while thinking as lecherous grin formed on my face "What will you do now. You pest"

"What's this…your frightening such a little girl like me. Come here david so you can show them your neck." Said nyx with a smile as she pulled me closer to her face. Her fangs sinking into my neck.

I grabbed nyx's hair and yanked her face away from my neck while saying with a scary look in my eyes "I'll kill you if you do th..."

"See my mate mark everyone." Said nyx with a grin, everyone completely ignoring me and getting a look of my healing bite mark on the back of my neck.

"Ah…she was telling the truth. Must be nice to be young." Said a ugly chubby, rough looking woman as she sat her booze cup down.

*Pak*

"Shut it bitch.Their still young." Said a ugly very skinny old man as he threw a card on the table and slid a pile of gold towards himself with a grin.

A young handsome man smacked his teeth and said as he got up from his seat "Tch…I'll win my money back later."

"Dream all you want. Your still wet behind the ears and need your mothers boobies at night now. You'll never pull one over one this old man. Hahaha." Said the very skinny old man as he started bagging the coins.

"Status" I thought as I rubbed the back of my stinging neck with my left hand, my right one grabbing and gripping nyx's tail. Making her legs tremble weakly.

"Make a sound and I'll chop it off you bitch." I said with a kind smile as my eyes glowered from my mana.

Nyx nodded as she grunted in pain and held my arm to not fall over.

I looked over my status screen. Immediately my eyes landed on mate of no nocturne and thought with a twitching eyebrow "Did she just make me her fucking mate. This pest just really made me her fucking mate. Hahaha, is she serious right now"

"I'm sorry master david, I had to make sure that she wasn't a threat since there are no beastkin in clover kingdom in general and are only in south continent across the ocean." Said benjamin calmly with a bow.

"Interesting so the south continent is full of beaskin peipl " I thought with my lip curling up slightly as I rubbed my chin with my left hand. My right hand not loosing it's grip on nyx's tail in the slightest.

I nodded at benjamin and started heading for the stairs and said calmly while pulling nyx by the tail "It's fine benjamin. Good job…"

"For being my meat shield" I thought with with a chuckle as I headed up the stairs for my bedroom.

"Thank you master david." Said benjamin calmly with another bow as he headed back to the bar counter.

I arrived at my bedroom and opened the door and closed it while yanking nyx by the tail onto the floor.

*Booom*

"OWW. CHILL THE FUCK OUT DUDE. IT'S NOT LIKE I'M GONNA RUN AWAY." Said nyx loudly in pain as she stroke her delicate tail with gritted teeth.

I snickered and said sarcastically as I sat on my bed and started taking my bloody boots off "Precisely the point, why are you following me. I don't even know you so what is your agenda."

"Ugh…bro what is that smell." Said Styx with disgust as she pinched her nose. Grabbing my boot as she let gi of her nose and sniffed it.

"GACK…dude are you serious right now. Your feet smells like you haven't showered in years." Said nyx as she gagged and saw her life flash before her eyes.

I stared at her for a moment. Completely unfazed and said with a closed eyed smile "And your chest will forever stay flat."

Nyx's mouth opened slightly in shock. Her feelings obviously hurt.

I took my other boot over and shoved it in her face with a chuckle.

"GAAACK. YOU PIECE OF SHIT. I'LL Kill YOU, DO YOU HEAR ME." Said Nyx loudly with anger as she gasped for clean air. Her chest heaving up and down.

I ignored her and took my bloody cloak, shirt and pants and threw them on the floor and threw myself on my bed face first in my black boxers.

*THUNK*

"Finally. I can…gack…I can still smell it, it's even worse after you took. Wait why are you in your underwear." Asked nyx with a flabbergasted, gagging look on her face, trying not to look at my sculpted body for my age.

I lifted my head from my pillow slightly and said with a sigh. Mentally drained "It's my building so I can walk around however I like. Now tell me why you want to join my syndicate. You can at least brief me on why a princess from across the fucking ocean is in my building at the clover kingdom border, bordering the spade kingdom."

Nyx chewed her bottom lip for a moment with her head bowed and said while raising it to look at me "I'll reintroduce my…"

"I don't care about your name, age, title or if you have a fucking beauty mark under your right boob. Tell me why your in the clover kingdom." I said with a serious look on my face as I leaned up a little to listen.

Nyx had a surprised look on her face and said with a giggle "You perv, you even know where my beauty mark is at."

"Nyx." I said calmly. My eyes glowing slightly with the serious look still on my face. Not bullshiting or playing games anymore.

Nyx sighed and said with her head slightly bowed "I'm being hunted by the crown of alodia, my brother is emperor of alodian empire, head of house nocturne and I was supposed to be mated to him by our parents who wanted the male son to rule instead of the daughter to keep the royal bloodline pure and strong but my brother decided to marry a commoner snake-beastkin bitch. I killed her and the baby she was pregnant with. I don't feel bad at all since I got to experience what commoners live like and I met your edgy funky booty ass."

"I'll let your disrespect slide since I can't sympathize with your story emotionally. You can see yourself out and ask benjamin where the guest room is." I said with a yawn while rolling over to sleep.

"Ok. Good night." Said nyx with a sigh as she start leaving for the door. Her feet not walking in the slightest but making sounds. Her hand aiming and smacking the shit out of my butt.

*PAH*

The room was absolutely silent for a moment.

I got up from the bed like a zombie with the building rumbling from my mana and glared at her while saying with glowing pink slitted eyes "Do you take me as someone easy to mess with. I'll fucking butcher your ass."

"Dude chill out. I only slapped your butt, it's nothing to get pissed over. You have a nice sculpted muscular ass. I had to get a slap in." Said nyx with an unaffected look on her face while shrugging as she grabbed her tail and started licking it with her tongue.

I had a dumbfounded look on my face with two bulging veins starting to appear on my forehead. My mana suddenly dispersing as I fell back on the bed tired and said "Just get out. Your so damn annoying."

"Hmm…uhh…no, your whole syndicate now knows I'm your mate so I can't sleep in another room." Said nyx while throwing herself onto the bed next to me.

I rolled over on my side and closed my eyes to go to sleep. Only to feel arms wrapped around me.

"Now that I smell you, your sweaty scent is actually nice." Said nyx with a giggle, her tail tickling my nose purposefully.

My eyes were wide open and bloodshot with anger and rage as I thought "God I hate this bitch. Weakling david I should have never rid you of this body but instead have you used for situations like this, god I wanna kill her so bad but she's more useful alive"

"Calm down david. Ignore her and replenish your lost brain cells that died because of this bitch" I thought with a sight while grabbing her tail and bit down on it hardly.

"GACK." Said nyx loudly in pain as she rubbed her tail.

"Go to sleep. I have people to murder in the morning." I said calmly with my eyes closed, pulling the covers over myself.

"Yes daddy." Said nyx with a low sultry tone and snickered as she slid under the covers and wrapped her arm back around me and snuggled close.

I drifted off into absolute pitch black.
