Chapter 27: Erika Red

Unexpectedly, Sara was already home. Beside her was someone Miguel did not expect to see right now.

It was Marcel.

Beside him was a beautiful girl with dark-red hair. She has a gentle look on her face as her eyes lit up when it met Miguel's eyes.

Miguel knew who this girl was.

The most beautiful and precious girl of Peach Village. The genius of Peach Village. The girl who awakened with a powerful Innate Skill and a powerful Bronze Grade Innate Beast two years ago.

She was Marcel's only daughter, Erika Red.

Aside from what he heard in the village from the fool Miguel's memory, he also became even more aware of this girl's existence after his last interaction with Jonas.

Jonas was hired by someone to kill him. And the motive was that, apparently, this Erika had taken a liking to him and it was found out by the brat who had taken a liking to Erika who then issued a secret order to kill the fool Miguel.

BAM!

The heavy Old Fire Yak was dropped to the ground with a loud bang.

A mixed reaction was seen among the three people in front of him.

Sara who was in awe and worried, Marcel who was secretly shocked and then Erika who was pleasantly surprised.

"Are you the one who killed this Level 3 Old Age Yak?" Marcel said, breaking the silence.

Miguel nodded his head before saying, "Yes, but it was already badly injured when I found it and it was already on its last breath."

What she did not know was that it was Miguel himself who killed Jonas. Of course, there were things that were better left unsaid.

Only two people knew of this information and both of them doesn't have an intention of revealing this to a third one.

"Miggy, are you alright? Are you hurt somewhere?" Sara's concerned voice rang after a moment of silence.

She walked towards Miguel and began checking his body thoroughly.

All she knew was that Miguel just fought an intense battle with the beast who killed Jonas. She was extremely worried about his well-being.

Miguel smiled at her regular behavior.

"Don't worry about it. This beast was already on its last breath when I found it so I only needed to deal the finishing blow to kill so I was not injured or harmed in the slightest."

Sara finally heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing his assurance. She then jolted as if she remembered something and said, "Right, the Branch Head is here to inform you of something important. By the way, this is Miss Erika, his daughter."

Miguel nodded his head indicating that he knew. He then turned to look at Sara and said with a light laugh, "Right, mom, can you please call our neighbors and let them help you prepare this yak and hare? Let's celebrate with a feast tonight, shall we?"

Upon hearing that, Sara was instantly delighted. She had also become some sort of little celebrity in their community of servants lately due to Miguel's grimoire awakening.

With this feast that they were about to do, her 'status' and popularity would surely rocket even more. Not to mention that this feast was obtained by Miguel. She could not even be more proud of it and she could use this opportunity to boast Miguel's ability to the others.

The phrase that says 'the happiness and sadness of a parent always stems from comparing their child to the neighbor's child' was indeed true.

On the other hand, upon hearing his words, Marcel and Erika both had their eyes widen in surprise, especially Marcel.

"Wait, are you sure about this? Maybe you didn't know yet, but the meat of Level 3 Old Fire Yak can actually be sold for 2 Gold Coin per kilo in the city. Its meat is very valuable, especially to Martial Artists as Beast meats, especially the high level ones that are very rich in nutrients that can help them strengthen their body."
