2 Ch 2: Mixus Family

The crown emitted a light so bright it could blind a person, it was so strong that the light itself stopped the rain. The kid was shocked at the sudden light and closes his eyes.

"W-what is this light!?" asked the kid.

The old man slowly tries to get close to the kid while covering his eyes.

"K-Kid! Calm down, it won't hurt you." said the old man.

As soon as the old man says this, the light dissipates and the kid opens his eyes and now the seemingly a bit large crown has now fitted his head perfectly.

"Ah, it's gone! The light is gone! And the rain too?" said the kid.

After he said this, everyone slowly opens their eyes and was baffled by what happened.

"H-hey, what the hell happened!? What the hell was that light?!" asks the small man.

"I don't know boss! It was so bright that even with my eyes closed it still felt like I was staring straight at the sun!" remarked by the big man.

They look straight at the kid, wearing the crown atop his head.

"It seems the Quiss has chosen an individual worthy enough." said the old man.

All of their eyes wide open, mouths wide open, in absolute shock.

"The kid was c-c-chosen?!" The small guy shockingly asks.

The woman smirks.

"Huh? Chosen? I was chosen? Chosen to what?" confusingly asked the kid.

the small man thinks to himself. "How could the Quiss choose this kid instead of me?! The great Mihikolo!? A kid is more worthy than me?!"

The small man nervously approaches the kid.

"H-Hey Kid!" the small man called the kid.

"H-How bout you joi-"

The old man steps in between them, stopping the small man from approaching the kid. He looks at the small man with a terrifying gaze.

"I suggest you stay put, Mister Small... You and your friends are still not pardoned after stealing the Crown."

The small man froze in his place, he felt as if death itself gaze upon him.

The kid, still unaware of what's happening.

The kid visibly annoyed says "Hey, You still haven't answered me! I was chosen? By what? By who? To what?"

The old man turns his head and faces the kid, changing his gaze to a more friendly one and he approaches the kid and stops in front of him.

"I'll give you the answer you want, kid... You are worthy and now have been chosen by the crown, you are now a user of a Quiss." explained the old man.

"A Quiss?!

What the hell is a Quiss?" asked the kid.

The old man and the woman were surprised by his response and the old man thought to himself "This kid doesn't know what a Quiss is? This is quite a predicament, I'll have to consult the Head about this."

The old man turns around and closes his umbrella and walks towards the path to the left.

"Kid, follow me to my house and I'll answer all your questions there, you wouldn't wanna stay here, where it's still wet. You 3 come along too." says the old man.

"Don't wanna. Why would I follow you? My Mama said to not follow some strangers!" the kid says in a taunting manner.

The old man stops.

"Mhmm? Perhaps I didn't make myself clear, I wasn't requesting, I'm saying you should..." Says the old man in a more demanding tone.

"But I still don't wanna, hehe." The kid taunted the old man.

The old man turns around and faces the kid.

"K-Kid stop taunting him! I don't know who that old man is but he's too powerful!" Said the intimidated small man.

"What if... I still don't wa-"

The old man vanishes in the kid's sight leaving the umbrella to fall to the ground and suddenly appears in front of him with his hand hovering at the kid's face as if he was about to grab the kid's whole head and as soon as the kid is able to react and tries to hop back, the old man's other hand grabs the kid's shoulder, stopping the kid from hopping back.

The old man squeezes his shoulder.

"Kid, I'll say it once more, come with me to my house." the old man says demandingly with a gentle smile.

"Ow! Old man you're hella strong!" remarked the kid.

The kid grabs the hand on his shoulder with both his hand and tries to remove it with all his strength but to no avail. When that failed, the kid tries to punch the old man's face with his right fist but was immediately blocked by the hand that was hovering in the kid's face before it was even close to landing, when even that failed the kid tries to unsheathe the sword in his hip but the old man again, immediately pushes the hilt, sheathing the sword back.

The old man squeezes much harder.

"Ow Ow Ow! Okay, Okay I'll go! I'll go!" said unwillingly in pain by the kid.

The old man releases his hand in the kid's shoulder and moves away his other hand from the kid's face.

"Ow Ow, Yeesh old man! You're crazy strong for someone so old!" says the kid while massaging his shoulder.

"Ahahaha, I guess I am pretty strong for an old school. Now come follow me to my house and you 3 better follow along too..." The old man looks at them while saying this.

The small man gulps and looks at the other 2 and nods and the other 2 nod too as if to say they'll comply. The old man sees this and turns around and heads to the left path again and picks up his umbrella along the way. The kid and the 3 follow along.

While walking on the straight path, the kid curious about something, keeps observing the old man.

"Huh? Old man, you look like an average old man but aren't an average old man, you're so strong! Your hand didn't even budge when I tried to remove it!" curiously asked the kid.

The small man thinks to himself with an angry jealous face "You're not any average kid either, having a Quiss and not being scared of this old man!"

"Oh you praise me too much, I'm just an ordinary old man from the Mixus Family."

The woman flinched when she heard the name.

She whispers to herself while nervously sweating from anxiousness "The Mixus Family...?!"
