(Rina Pov)
"*Bow* His Grace wishes to speak with you immediately."(Butler)
Pfft, seems like typical dad behavior. I wonder how Mom, Dad, big sis Lyra, big sis Cary, Lucas, and big brother Cole will react when they find out we all have partners or soon-to-be partners? Meh, let's think about that later.
We then started walking towards the mansion. But just as we got near the actual mansion, I felt something.
(Surprised) What!? A clan Leader is nearby!? But which one? Ahh, I'll figure this out as I go!
We then entered the mansion where maids were cleaning. We then walked up to the second floor and started heading toward the Clan Leader I was sensing.
(Frustrated) Ahh, nothing's making sense anymore!! Selen is clearly a True Fenrir and we're heading towards her father's office and the closer we get the stronger I can feel the presence. But aren't I the Clan Leader of the True Fenrir!? What the hell is going on dammit!?
We soon reached a double door where I felt the presence at. Confirming to me that Selen's father is the presence I was sensing.
*Knock Knock*
"I have brought them your Grace."(Butler)
"Let them in."(Selen's father)
We then walked in and found a man in his late twenties to early thirties. He had sharp golden eyes like Selen and snow-white hair. He had serious look on his face which seemed to make Selen tremble a bit.
We couldn't really care less about that stare as we've gotten even more intense stares from Ella and she's way stronger than him. That's not to say he's weak. Cause he definitely isn't. If I had to guess his level is at 500 putting him at Greater Demon rank.
He was wearing a black suit and tie that kind of reminded me of the stereotypical office worker in manga. He then looked straight at Selen.
"Selen..."(Selen's father)
She then looked down.
"*Shoots up* *Teary eyed* Selen my baby girl you can't marry yet!"(Selen's father)
Where did the dignified person just now go!?
"(Embarrassed) *Blush* Dad!! Not in front of them! Please!"(Selen)
"Aww, my little girl is rebellious now."(Selen's father)
"Stop!! I'm not a little kid anymore!"(Selen)
"*Sniffle* I remember when you used to come crying to me when Celein was bullying you."(Selen's father)
"*Covers face* Kill me now. Dad you're ruining my chances at a relationship right now!"(Selen)
""""No, he's not.""""
"(Confused) What?"(Selen)
"Trust me when I say things can be way weirder and embarrassing back home."(Hail)
*Nod*x3
He then stiffened up and got a serious look on his face.
Heh, since that didn't work, he's probably go-
*Shatter*
Guessed it!! And why the fuck did you shoot an ice spike at me!?!? I'm not even the one who was trying to marry your daughter dammit!
He then had a shocked face at the fact it shattered upon let alone leave a scratch.
"(Cold) I assume since you're shooting ice spikes it's fine that I do the same."(Rina)
*Shatter*
I then shot my own ice spike which shattered on impact like I thought it would. Selen had a shocked look as if to just realize what exactly we were.
"*Glare* So, what's more True Fenrir doing here?"(Selen's father)
"*Glare* That isn't something you need to know."(Rina)
"*Glare* You dare speak to the Clan Leader like that!?"(Selen's father)
He then tried to force me to talk using the authority of the Clan Leader.
"*Glare* I do dare."(Rina)
I then released my own presence as a Clan Leader. He then had a look of shock and confusion.
"Pfft, you seem very confused. You probably thought you were the only Clan Leader. Well, so did I but, it seems we were both wrong. So, let's give formal introductions.
I am Rina Frostfang leader of the Frostfang clan."(Rina)
He then took on a look of deliberation.
"I... am Alen Frozeneye leader of the Frozeneye clan."(Alen)
*Ding*
System announcement
Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on the original website.
Clan Leader Rina Frostfang of the Frostfang clan has made contact with Clan Leader Alen Frozeneye of the Frozeneye clan. Clan-specific unique skill unlocked. Collect all clan-specific unique skills to acquire ****** ****** *****.
*Ding*
[Unique skill Frostfang acquired. Skill Rend level 5 has been absorbed.]
"So, I assume you too just got that notification."(Rina)
*Nod*x5
So, how do you collect the skills?
[You must subjugate the clan leader of the clan.]
You mean I have to kill them?
[Negative. You must subjugate them. Killing is one method you could also have them willingly surrender. At which point they lose their title as Clan Leader.]
Is that really it?
[Affirmative.]
Heh, well let's do this.
*Snap*
I then created a shadow blade out of his shadow and put it against his neck.
"Rina! What are you doing!?"(Hail)
Hail was about to jump at me but, Izz and Snow got in her way.
"Look I'll make things simple. You can surrender you-"(Rina)
"Alright."(Alen)
"(Confused) Really? Just like that?"(Rina)
"*Shrug* Meh, I can tell you don't want to kill me and it's not like this title does much for me."(Alen)
*Ding*
[Unique skill Frozeneye acquired. You are now the Clan Leader of the Frozeneye and Frostfang Clans.]
I then dispersed the shadow blade at his neck.
"Well, that was anti-climactic but, well I'm glad I di-"(Rina)
"*Snap* That's where I heard of you from! Shit."(Selen)
We all then gave her a confused look and she started to shrink down blushing under our gazes.
"(Confused) What?"(Rina)
"(Embarrassed) N-Nothing."(Selen)
"*Eyeroll* That's a whole can of worms I don't want to open. So, let's go back on topic which somehow never actually started."(Rina)
"Ah, r-right. U-Um I-I wan-"(Selen)
"No, you can't marry her. She's a child."(Alen)
I then threw a dagger at him knowing he was talking about me. He then caught it but, since it was covered with paralytic poison, he went mostly limp.
"I thought you said you weren't going to kill me!"(Alen)
"Ah, uh that was just a reflex for being called a child. While I may look like this, I become an adult in a month. And I'm not interested in her. If it wasn't obvious the 1 looking for your permission is my younger sister Hail."(Rina)
I then pointed to Hail who was standing right next to Selen.
"While that's all swell, do you got the cure for this?"(Alen)
"*Nod* I do. The poison that was the dagger wasn't that strong."(Rina)
I then took out a small bottle full of yellow liquid. I then took the cap off and shoved it in his mouth.
"Drink."(Rina)
He then began to drink and looked like he was about to vomit once it hit his tongue but, he powered through.
"*Cough* *Cough* Gaah, that was terrible!"(Alen)
He then stood back up.
"*Nod* Yeah, I feel you. As goblin parts were used in making that."(Rina)
"What!?"(Alen)
"Yeah, that there is a low-grade paralytic cleanser which uses goblin materials to make."(Rina)
"(Upset) Couldn't you give me something else!"(Alen)
"*Nod* I could have but, I'm not wasting a higher-grade paralytic cleanser on low-grade paralytics."(Rina)
"Rrr, *Sigh* fine. Still, you can't marry her."(Alen)
"What!? Why not!? Is it because Rina tried to kill you!?"(Selen)
"First, that sounds like you care about her more than you do me and second they aren't even old enough yet."(Alen)
"(Confused) What?"(Selen)
"*Sigh* Do you even pay attention?"(Alen)
"(Confused) Huh?"(Selen)
"*Sigh* She said she'd be an adult in a month."(Alen)
"(Confused) Okay?"(Selen)
"(Annoyed) He means that we're not at the age of our first heat cycle. Or in simpler terms, we're not even 1 year old yet. Though his point makes no sense as for our species we're fully grown adults by 1."(Snow)
"(Shocked) HUH!?!?"(Selen)
"(Annoyed) Yeah, yeah, we aren't even 1 ye-"(Snow)
"I was an adult when I turned 1!? How come I wasn't told this!?"(Selen)
"(Dead Pan) You really didn't tell her."(Rina)
"*Looks away* W-Well you know. Pups are usually immature at 1 a-and your usually officially an adult at 16-18 years old. Speaking of you're really mature for your age."(Alen)
"*Shrug* Seeing all the ones you love killed in front of you and having to fend for yourself does that to you."(Rina)
"Ah, sorry for your loss."(Alen)
"I don't want shallow pity. Now back on topic, why can't she marry her? From all your points they are almost all invalid. Sure, maturity might be your concern but, well as you said. At 16-18 and well I doubt that she's below 14. It just seems that you're being stubborn now."(Rina)
"Of course, I am! I don't want my little girl to leave already!"(Alen)
"(Embarrassed) Dad! You're ruining my love life!! I-If you don't approve I-I'll run away with them!"(Selen)
"(Amused) Oh, and where too?"(Alen)
"She'd be going back to our place either way but, well let's just say finding us is going to be... very hard for you."(Rina)
"*Glare* Is that a threat?"(Alen)
"Hm, no I was just stating a fact. If we really wanted to, we could leave right now without anyone being able to stop us."(Rina)
"You seem pretty confident. Why don't you tell me your masterful way of leaving this place without being stopped."(Alen)
"*Shrug* Sure. It's magic."(Rina)
He then looked at me like I was delusional.
"Magic doesn't exist."(Alen)
I then gave him a look like he was the dumbest person ever.
"I just had a blade made out of your own shadow held against your throat and shot an ice spike at you. How the fuck are you going to tell me magic doesn't exist!?"(Rina)
"That's just a manipulation skill. Which also reminds me, how did you get darkness manipulation?"(Alen)
"*Facepalm* I was using fucking primal darkness magic. *Sigh* Fine, I'll show you more magic."(Rina)
*Snap*
I then created a ball of light, fire, earth, wind, blood, magma, lightning, void, and death.
"These are all balls of magic. Each with a different element. They range from fire all the way to death. Each unique in its effects on living things."(Rina)
"Okay say I believe you. Why does the system not show anything about magic?"(Alen)
"*Shrug* I don't know. On mine it does."(Rina)
"Th-"(Alen)
"""Huuh!?!"""
"(Confused) What's up with you 3?"(Izz)
"Um, well it says that the hidden magic stat has now been lifted from us. Which means magic is real and our magic is called Primal Tundra magic."(Alen)
""""Huuuh!?""""
"(Confused) Why are you 4 acting like that now?"(Selen)
"Um, well you see we have Primal Winter magic not Primal Tundra magic."(Hail)
"(Confused) Is that bad?"(Selen)
"Uh, no. It's just weird. Why do you guy's only have Primal Tundra magic while we have Primal Winter magic?"(Snow)
"Uh, I'm lost here."(Alen)
"Basically, why do you only have Primal Tundra magic a plane base element, and not Primal Winter magic which is a fusion element."(Rina)
"Does it matter?"(Alen)
"Uh, not really. Just Winter magic is somewhat stronger than Tundra magic. You know what. Let's get back on track. So, marriage."(Rina)
"*Sigh* Alright, but *Cold Smile* if she breaks my little girl's heart, I'll break every bone in her body."(Alen)
"*Cold Smile* And if she breaks my little sister's heart, I'll make her regret living."(Rina)
"Hail dad and Rina are scary."(Selen)
"*Nod* Yeah, I think I'm actually a little scared of your father now. Big sis was always scary though."(Hail)
"Let's agree never to piss them off."(Selen)
*Nod*
Me and Alen both had a vein bulging from our heads.
""We can hear you.""
"*Clap* Now that that's settled let's go! We have our own thing to do, don't we?"(Snow)
*Glare* You're saved this time.
"*Nod* Let's go."(Rina)
"Ah, shouldn't you introduce your girlfriend to your mother?"(Alen)
"Ah, right! I forgot! Where is Mom?"(Selen)
"I think she's in the garden."(Alen)
She then dragged us to the garden where her mother who's named Sylphid. She was ecstatic at her daughter finding a partner. Though she did give a similar warning to Alen's, and I did the same. We then teleported back to her apartment because I didn't feel like walking there again.
