About 30 minutes after momma Maybelle got back, pops walked through the door. “I have got bathing suits for the both of you. They will change color and size based on the wearer will. Please keep them. We are all going to relax in the hot springs together. Please join us. Also, I made this for you earlier with wolf meat. Please enjoy.” Alfred handed over the suits and the wolf steak he made. The wolf king had to different rankings, one was its fighting level and the other was the grade of meat. It was a lean animal to begin with. And out of F through SSS rank this wolf was 2 grades ahead of its underlings. A regular wolf was D rank the wolf king was B rank. But I wasn’t going to tell them that. They accepted the food right away, but George was busy with the shop. He had a big order from the town behind them. He was half through with his work and mamma was helping him with the easy bits. She could be considered a master blade sharpener. Both momma and pop left after meeting my friends, but not before giving me long lasting hugs. I knew momma was pregnant and needed rest. I could smell the scent buried within her unique smell of sunshine. “congrats mom” I said in her ear. The magic I used kept my voice quiet to where only me and her could hear. “the family is going to be bigger in a few months, best to prepare pops for the new arrival. And keep me updated. I know enough of the healing to help your midwife with your health.” To say mom was speechless was an understatement, but the look of utter joy on her face was well worth it. I knew that in this world, the sooner you know you would have a child, the better the chances of death not occurring would be. Soon momma and pops left and all 5 of us relaxed and ate the rest of the meals. I had already sent 2 of them each to the chief and his wife and the elder and his wife. I had also just sent 2 with momma earlier. “alright guys, this is the last of the steak from the wolf. I can make a roast or some ground wolf meat for a hamburger.” Of course, everyone chose the food they never heard about. “hamburgers it is, but I will need some eggs and garlic. And lettuce. As well as a few tomatoes and onion. We can grab it as we go through the market tomorrow, before we get picked up but the carriage.” Alfred’s friends nodded their agreement. They would get it themselves. Let’s head out now. I want to go to bed now guys. Well go to the forest outside of Capitol City with Gate and use the dragon home to sleep tonight. That way even if we wake up late, we can just leave the dragon home and head into the city.” Everyone agreed. Soon we were changed and used gate to leave. Outside of the city all 5 of us used Dragon Home, we walked in and was in our rooms. Everyone went to sleep and had a restful night. The next morning, Early in the morning. Alfred knocked on the doors of his friends’ rooms and said “wake up guys, rise and shine. Let’s eat and train.” Groans were heard. Everyone came out of their rooms slowly. After seeing the breakfast Alfred got up to make, they were happy enough to comply. “pancakes, because it makes the world go around.” After their first bite, with the syrupy goodness, no one could refute his words. “eat up. After this get the new training gear on and meet me out the door from the kitchen. Were going to train until 12. For 4 hours until I stop the training to make the lunch, you will be doing the routine I set the last day. Adding 5 more laps.” My training grounds at the Dragon Home was just as big as the one at the Margrave Malacre’s house. The 5 extra laps were for increasing stamina and endurance. They would hate it, but they worked hard all the same. Later after training and an extra shower for everyone, they all headed out to the forest to hunt some easy prey. A third would be sent to the village, the rest would be supply for their food. Since the storage made food stay fresh, Alfred could keep it until they needed it. ‘when you have time, Kiri, can you make seasoned skewers?’ Kiri agreed. “let’s go everyone. Well head to the guild and then go shopping.” Alfred gated to the forest entry about 200 yards from the nearest person, they all walked out and walked to the gate and showed their guild cards for free entry. They were recorded and entered. Alfred being silent was hardly seen. Walking to the guild hall was fun since they had extra coins, they got some material for some crafts for their rooms in Alfred’s Dragon Home. They got cured bamboo grass to make baskets, and Ki-alla even got some materials to make her and Safrina some underclothes. They made it to the guild by 1:30 and went to turn in their quest, but a burly man with a scar on his shoulder stood in the way. “looks like you guys didn’t return successful. I though the B-rank would get you something good. Turns out trash can do nothing”. Alfred mumbled to his team loud enough that the man could even hear it. “guys, just ignore him. If he wants to act my age then its really not worth the time or effort.” “oooohh, the tiny baby has much to say, why don’t you say it louder.” The look I gave him let my aura out. It seemed to scare the pee out of him, he kept silent for about a minute, “you don’t scare me pip-squeak. A baby like you can do nothing about it.” We made it to the desk and said “we would like to turn in our d rank mission, Giant Wolf Quest. Also, there was a Giant Wolf king in the pack too. Please process the extra from the rewards.” The front desk lady was silent. She heard from the guild master that a child joined the guild at B rank. But may join group quests at a higher grade. The kid had 1 king wolf ear and 24 pairs of its subordinates. “the reward for the completion of the quest is 24 gold, with the added King wolf it will be 103 gold coins. Shall I add them to your treasury?” “yes ma’am. That would be great. I don’t want people that think I didn’t earn the money to take it from me, not that they could even if they tried.” This time the look that I gave the ignorant man a new look, it said try if you want to lose your life. I knew the man would try other things to make me mad. He left the Guild and walked off mumbling. While the money was stored in the Treasury, a man from the Margraves house called out “Alfred are you ready to go. The carriage is here to take you back my lord and lady want to know how you did, they are anxious.” “yes, we are ready. Let’s go everyone. I’m tired and wish to nap.” Everyone loaded up in to the carriage and off we went.
