Sadly, although Titan tried to stop me, I still ended saying those rather… selfish words out of the blue. I thought Black Haze would get mad at me and leave, but she giggled.

"I knew that would be your response. Don't worry, I just want to hang out with you." She laughed a lot. "Though are you sure? My guild's super strong, we could help you out."

"Y-Yeah, sorry, I guess that came out of nowhere. Forget it. I will gladly make an alliance, take as long as you want to decide." I smiled back slightly nervously.

I thanked God she was the playful and mischievous type that doesn't mind when others are rude against her.

"Oh, so you've considered it! Good then!" Smiled Black Haze.

"And as for you, Dark Reaper…" I said while imagining her saying she was here just for show or something.

"We want to join your new guild." She said. "My friends are out eating so I came alone."

"Y-YOU WHAT!?"

I felt completely taken aback!

My own daughter wants to join my guild… willingly?!

HUH?!

This was… completely unexpected.

But at the same time, a dream come true!

Like this, she'll always stay with us and we can bond better in-game, hehehe…

"So that's a not? I expected it. Well, that's it. I will come back one day for a rematch. Until then-"

"W-Wait! I didn't meant it that way! You can join! I will gladly welcome you! I was just… surprised. That' all." I sighed while calming down.

"Oh." My daughter's red eyes glowed brightly, an evil smile emerged in her lips, sharp teeth showing menacingly. "Good then."

"But why… why do you want to join our guild, dear?" Lily wondered.

"Yeah aren't you like a lone wolf?" Achlys asked.

"I… I feel the same, why?" Titan wondered.

My daughter glanced back at them, her smile going back to her usual expressionless, yet adorable face.

"Have you never heard of the saying keep your allies close, but your enemies even closer?" She said with a malicious aura. "Planta's my rival. We fought and I won… yet that victory didn't even felt like one, she never truly died, so it feels like she went easy on me. I want to keep her closer to see how she grows, and I'll keep up with her. We'll have a rematch no matter what!"

Geez, I should had expected that response.

Everyone in the room looked at my daughters response in disbelief.

"Are you serious?!" Titania angrily said. "Planta don't accept her! She's too suspicious! Look at her creepy grin!"

"Don't talk to her like that!" I roared back at Titania, who suddenly shut down due to my angered response.

"H-Huh? T-This is the first time you scream at me…" Titania felt all saddened.

Oops, right, she doesn't know she's my daughter.

"S-Sorry! I am really sorry, I let that… heat of the moment get to me. I didn't intended it." I sighed, giving her a head pat and taking out of my inventory a strawberry cake slice.

"O-Okay…" Titania pouted a bit but accepted my token of sincerity.

"S-So anyways, is that it?" The gnome chief wondered. "We should go get that guild thing done asap!"

"Yeah!" Said Angelina.

"Alright then, everyone, let's go." I sighed. "Dear, come with us too if you want to join! Bring your besties."

"Sure." Dark Reaper quickly went to look for Anna and Elisa.

The Vampiress quickly walked to my side.

"Dear, now that you're a World Boss you'll need some protection, even more if we go to the Player Town. I'll come with you for now. But remember I can't be your bodyguard all times." She said. "Also call me Rosemary! Black Haze is just the name I use publicly."

"Okay, Rosemary it is then~" I sighed, feeling the pressure of a high rank player at my side.

Also is she a man or a woman IRL? I can't really tell, but her way of speaking and moving, she's most likely a woman.

"So anyways, what's your gender? You seem to have two names and a male and female persona so…" I asked, feeling a bit bolder.

"Fufufu, you're asking a person inside the game about their personal life? Do you want me to report you or something, Planta~?" She laughed.

"A-Ah! Sorry, I didn't meant it like that!" I said slightly flustered.

"But fine, I am feeling generous. How about a deal?" She asked, my friends were nearby, hearing her words. "Let's meet up IRL in a café somewhere… Ya'll live in Canada right? Then we can see each other then, you'll find out who I am in that moment."

"We do live in Canada, yeah…" Titan felt slightly nervous. "I-Is this okay though?"

"Ah, I would gladly meet you!" Lily agreed too fast.

"Sure girl, if you really want to. But you pay the drinks, hahaha!" Achlys giggled.

"Hmm~! Your friends seem most happy about it. So? Planta?" Asked Rosemary.

"Uuuuhh…" I felt slightly pressured. Mark didn't seem to like this though, and I couldn't help but agree with his instincts.

What if it's a creep or something?!

Well, all four of us will be going, and I've got my magic too.

I doubt any bandit could even do a single thing to me now… but still.

Uuuuuhhh…

Ahh! Well, whatever!

"Sure, whatever." I sighed. "Let's decide the time and place through chat later on."

"Ahhh~! I am most pleased!" Rosemary smiled happily. "I've always wanted to have IRL friends."

"You don't have!?" I asked in surprise.

"Meh, from all my candidates, they're all a bunch of hot-blooded teens so I don't care about meeting them IRL. You guys are down to earth and quite nice." She said, giving me a head pat.

"Don't head pat me!" I sighed.

"Y-Yeah! Don't head pat her." Titan said, suddenly hugging me to protect me from the mischievous vampire.

"Fufu, you're so close! So cute~" Rosemary giggled. "So, anyways! Shall we get going? You friends are back now."

She pointed at my daughter and her friends entering the room.

"We're ready." She said.

"Alright then! Time to make our guild, everyone!" I celebrated. "Guide! Can you teleport us to the Capital of Players with our friends?"

"Sure, all NPC seem willing, so its possible to bring them along! Let's go!"

FLAAAASH!
