As we were all sitting there I filled in Claire

 

¨So in resume, she has trauma, was hypnotized, and didn't actually want to bully you¨

 

Claire responded

 

¨I see...¨

 

I gave a look to Julia

 

¨Even if I was hypnotized, I'm still sorry for how I treated you¨

 

Claire got up and took Julia in a hug

 

¨Shhh, you don't have to apologize, truth be told, I thought something was off about you for a while and it all makes sense. And if you ever want to talk about your childhood you can count on me¨

¨Thanks...¨

 

Claire returned to my side and cast another healing spell on my leg

 

¨Now that you have awakened, it's finally time for me to create my pack¨

¨What do you mean?¨

¨Well I have a skill that let me create a pack but I need at least one other member to create it. To add someone to it, the person needs to be awakened and I need to have had sex with it so since you weren't awakened I couldn't yet¨

¨Oh! cool! But why didn't you add Julia then?¨

¨Well, you are my first mate so I wanted you to be the first¨

 

Yeah no I just kinda forgot, also, I wouldn't be surprised that's there a title link to the first member and I prefer Claire to have it than Julia

 

¨Anyway I'll try now, Form tribe.¨

 

^Activating skill: Pack leader^

^Creating tribe....^

^To create a tribe you need at least one other member^

^List of possible members:

-Claire Gray 

-Julia blade  ^

 

¨Add Claire Gray¨

 

^Invintation sent^

^Pending.....^

 

¨OH!¨

 

Claire exclaimed

 

¨I got a notification¨

¨Well, accept it. Unless you don't want to be part of my tribe¨

 

She waves her finger in front of her

 

¨Ehh, how do I do it? It's not a touch screen¨

¨Try vocal command¨

¨Ok, Accept¨

 

^Invitation sent^

^Pending... Accepted^

 

Suddenly, both me and claire started faintly glowing white

 

^Pack created^

^Awarding title^

^You have gained the Pack leader title^

^Member Claire Gray has been awarded the title: First mate¨

^Title: Pack Leader (F)^

Description: The leader of a system assisted pack

Effect: Let you teach your skill to a member of your pack

The time needed to learn the skill depends on the rarity of the skill

Cannot teach the pack leader skill

Effect 2: Decrease pregnancy duration by 75%

Effect 3: Remove the disability effect of pregnancy

^                            ^

 

Oooh, that's a pretty nice title. Won't make me any stronger but with this effect, I got an excuse to monopolize all skill cards my future tribe will find. Also, as I suspected, Claire got a title

 

¨I got the pack leader title and it says you got the First mate title, what does it mean?¨

¨Ehm... Well...¨

 

As I was wondering what it could possibly be, another window popped up

 

^Pack screen^

^                                                ^

 

Oooh, well let's try it right now

¨Eek, What?!¨

¨You can see my status?¨

 

Claire asked

 

¨Oh, yeah, Since you are part of my pack I have a skill that let me check members' status but it uses the majority of my mana so I cant use it regularly¨

¨Oh, so you saw the title?¨

¨Well, yeah. I don't see what the problem is? Why didn't you want to say it?¨

¨W...well, it's a sex-based title, of course, I would be embarrassed.¨

¨Uh... If you say so¨

 

Yeah, I would've been embarrassed too if I was still human, but I'm not so I can't help finding it stupid

 

¨Anyway, I'll add Julia now¨

¨Add Julia blade¨

 

^Invitation sent^

^Pending... Accepted^

 

Julia, who was just silently sitting there awkwardly and looking at my broken leg, didn't even flinch and rapidly accepted

Like the first time, we both glowed white for a few moments. The only difference between the one with me and Claire was that the glow was barely visible and way shorter. There wasn't any notification other than confirmation that she joined so I guessed that the first guardian title is for the first male.

 

¨Since we're done with that, how about a brunch or something? I haven't eaten since noon yesterday¨

¨Leave it to me, I'll make you something to eat¨

¨Thanks Claire, make sure to have lots of meat¨

¨No problem¨

 

Claire got up, kiss me, and walked to the kitchen

 

¨Now, Julia. What do we do about tonight's supper with your dad? he told you to go at around 15h00 and it is currently....¨

 

I checked my phone

 

¨9h35, so we got more or less 5 hours to prepare something and heal my leg¨

 

She looked at me while her hand were tugging her shirt

 

¨W...well, don't I just have to go?¨

¨Erg, I hate to admit it but you are right¨

¨What does that mean?¨

¨What?¨

¨Why do you hate admitting it? You think I'm stupid?¨

¨Uh?¨

¨Or that I'm so apparently traumatized that I can't think for myself?¨

 

It seem that I was wrong in thinking that she was only a stuck-up cunt because of the hypnotism. Since she is a member of my pack, it's my role to educate her now, trauma or not

 

¨Yes¨

¨What?¨

¨Yes, I think you are stupid and that your judgment is clouded because of your trauma. I've been treating you well because I pitied you but if you lash out like that at every snide remark I make at you don't expect me to stay gentle. Am I clear?¨

 

I didn't up to my voice or anything and said all that with a smile. She looked disgruntled but she still nodded her understanding.

 

¨Good, Also, the reason I said I hated to admit it was because that means I cant intervene or anything since I'm not invited and there's no way I will be¨

 

She now looked ashamed at her allegation.

 

¨For now, just set up the meeting with Ren. Call him and put it on speaker¨

¨But what do I say?¨

¨Just tell him your father wants to meet him¨

 

She pulled out her phone and dialed Ren's number. I quickly gestured for her to come to sit next to me. After only a few ringtones, Ren answered.

 

¨Hey babe, what's up?¨

¨Hey b...babe, I got a call from my father this morning¨

¨And?¨

 

He doesn't even sound surprised by the fact her father called her? Koff, I bet he didn't even take the time to learn about Julia 

 

¨Well, he told me he wanted us to go and meet him together today at 15h¨

¨Really? Did he say why?¨

¨No¨

¨Uh. Well ok then, I got nothing to do. Do you want me to go grab you now or later?¨

¨Um um l..later.¨

¨What time?¨

¨Well, the mansion is more or less 30 min away from my home so come get me by 14h30 ok?¨

¨Just before the meeting? you don't want to meet beforehand?¨

¨W...well¨

She gave me a glance asking for help

¨*wispering* so tell him you need to pay special attention to your make-up to meet with your dad¨

¨I... I need to prepare myself. I don't see my father every day so I need to put special care into my appearance. You should too¨

¨Urgh, you are right. Well, if there's nothing more, I'm gonna go, see you later¨

¨Y...yeah, you too¨

 

And at that, he hangs up. Julia seems to deflate for a few moments before she starts speaking

 

¨UUURRGGH, I hate speaking  him. He is so arrogant and narcissistic while being such a douchebag. I can't imagine someone like me being ever with him if it wasn't for his power¨

¨Someone like you?¨

¨Yeah, even if he is the brother of a powerful guild master, he has no class and is closer to a hooligan than a noble like me¨

 

Yep, she definitely needs training. As I was considering how to reign her in and train her, Clair pop her head out of the kitchen and called

 

¨It's ready, come eat! Oh no, Natasha waits for me to help you. Do not walk with that leg you hear me?¨

 

Oh well, I'll think about that later, for now, let's eat the first meal my mate ever made me.

 

This is Natasha current status
