Chapter 41 - Seal For Our Agreement

Inside Raine's underground hide-out at a 24/7 minimart…

"Oh my God… Are you sure that it's written there correctly that King Arthur had a son from his second wife that turned out to be a werewolf and not human? And the name of the boy was Nathaniel Yue? A boy that is still missing even now?" 

Levi had burst out in disbelief. He doubted that any of the current generations of the Moon Clan was even aware of such information, maybe except for the people involved in the eradication like King Marcus, his brother Prince Yun, and their Boss, Raine. 

He could never imagine what scene a young Raine had witnessed that day. But above all, he still couldn't believe that there was a chosen historian along with a guardian that had the gift to see and witness all of the important and crucial events that had happened to the Mirage. 

Those Mirage Diaries were like the Mirage Books of Truth! No wonder there were torn pages and irregular attacks these past few months. Those monsters who attacked the Secretary of Defense's vacation house were probably also looking for the torn pages from the diaries aside from the Voyager's Watch.

"Damn! How did I miss this much information!?" Levi unconsciously voiced out.

"It's not your fault. Only the royals of each clan are even allowed to know these things so mommy Raine is surely aware of the Mirage Diaries…" Aire nonchalantly replied.

"Right. But then… according to our files, King Arthur doesn't have a son. He only had two daughters; the twins that ran away from the Clan when they were young. They were soon reported as dead in the same year..."

As he trailed off, Levi quickly covered his mouth and hit his lips as soon as he realized that he had just given out private information about their Clan. It also meant that he also just confirmed the existence of Mirage!

"Well, the details in the torn pages I read were quite different. It said there that King Arthur let the twins go because he didn't want his daughters to become full-bred killing machines for the Clan. You see, the Moon Clan loved to train children as soon as they can move…" Aire corrected.

"Oh my God! What are you? Are you sure you're eight?!" Levi exclaimed in disbelief.

Aire smiled at him and snorted, "Haven't you read enough of the details you gathered about me? I'm turning nine in a week. Besides, I'm a prodigy, so it's pretty normal that I can think ahead of my age…"

"Yeah, right. I bet that's a lot of pressure, so how about you just enjoy your life as a kid, huh?" Levi said with a grin.

"Don't forget about our deal, Uncle, or I'll report you to Mommy Raine and tell her that you struck a deal with me," Aire playfully threatened.

"Oh my Lord! I can't believe that you're threatening your uncle like this!" Levi complained.

Aire clicked her tongue, "It's not a threat, Uncle. It's a warning."

Levi's eyes widened even more in disbelief. He honestly felt like he was debating with the little devil version of his Boss!

"No more steak for you. We'll have all the vegetables for dinner!" Levi scoffed.

"That's okay. Vegetables are good for our bodies. Besides, it's good to try to become a vegan werewolf for a change," Aire casually deflected.

"What is going on?" Mia interrupted as soon as she noticed Levi's flaring nostrils when she entered the dining area.

"Your food's already cold. Wait a bit while I just reheat it…" Levi mumbled. He had no intentions of telling Mia what he just found out from Aire. He would rather let their Boss do the talking if she intended to say anything to them about the matter.

Mia sat back on her chair, "I already sent the Boss a text message. Left a voice call message too to call us back as soon as they land."

"Alright," Levi plainly answered.

Mia then looked at Aire, "Cutie, could you tell me more about what you know?"

Levi paused at what he was doing as he turned to look at Aire.

Aire looked directly at Mia with an evil smirk and said, "If I tell you everything about the torn pages I read, then what can you do for me in return?"

Levi's jaw dropped. Mia looked in Levi's direction, who immediately signaled her to stop. Mia frowned at him, turned her gaze back at Aire, and flashed a fairly neutral smile, "I'll give you everything you want, cutie. Just tell Aunty everything you know."

Levi's face twitched as he wryly interrupted, "How about I tell you about the information instead, Mia? I can just be the one to give you information about it."

Aire shrugged her shoulders and mumbled, "It's up to you, Aunty, but I'm sure Uncle's details are not as precise as mine. I mean, I could've left some parts unsaid to him since I only answered his questions, so there could be more parts of the story that he's not aware of."

Levi blinked in utter disbelief. Meanwhile, Mia chuckled playfully.

"So naughty, but so cute," Mia commented as she patted Aire on the head.

Aire smiled at her and said, "So Aunty, tell me, are you willing to do any of my requests in exchange for the information you want to know?"

Mia looked at Levi, who quickly gave her a thumbs down in disapproval. She shook her head as she grinned before turning back her gaze to Aire.

"Alright. Aunty will do anything you want so long as it won't involve killing someone," Mia said with a smile.

Aire chuckled, "Don't worry, aunty. I won't ask for something horrible like that. So, you have to promise me that when the right time comes, you'll do whatever I want you to do, okay?"

Mia smiled, "Sure, I promise."

All of a sudden, Aire's eyes glowed, the light hitting Mia in a way that made her rub her eyes as she asked, "What was that?"

"Ah, it's nothing, Aunty. It's just a seal for our agreement," Aire said with a grin.

Levi frowned, seeing as the same thing just happened to him a while ago.. He had seen some glow from her eyes that made him rub his eyes, and when he asked Aire about it, the little girl only said the same thing as what she said to Mia just now.
