Uncle Jermine

"Welcome back Master, Young Miss." Jermine's voice was chipper and surprisingly youthful considering it belonged to what looked to be a middle-aged man. Though Lexa knew not to compare the age of Magician to normal people, as Magician's had extended lifespans starting at the Inner Haven Rank. The age of Magical Beast's similarly expands with every breakthrough in Ranks, only, a Magical Beast's lifespan varies per their race, giving a wide spectrum that is impossible to generalise like humans.

Jermine was a small but burly man with grizzled features and had long, pulled back white hair that extended into a bushy beard. Overall, he looked like a hardened warrior who had seen his fair share of conflict and came out on top, which Lexa expected came with the job of a Beast Tamer. That could not be a safe job, having to be around several vicious Magical Beasts everyday and trying to handle them, it was inevitable that more than a few Magical Beasts would lash out. For this reason, most Beast Tamer's were well trained in the art of battle along with their main trade as a Tamer.

"It's been a while!" Alexander greeted the short burly man with a warm smile, even leaning in to give the shorter man a strong hug. From this, Lexa could gleam that the relationship between the two could be considered really close, as she had yet to see the cold faced Alexander act as such with any other figure other than his family, which Jermine was certainly not.

"Hey, Uncle Jermine!!" Andria was also full of smiles as she rushed forward and leapt into Jermine's arms with abandon.

"Hahahaham, you little troublemaker!" Jermine laughed brightly as he caught her and pulled her in for a hug, his hand stroking her hair as she laughed happily into his chest. "You never change, child. Someday you're going to send me straight on my arse. Hahaha!!"

Andria laughed sweetly at his words, feeling giddy for hearing a bad word. A second later, Andria's extensive hug was cut short by Alexander pulling her back as he gave Jermine a (fake) stern look. "You're being a bad influence on my girl."

"Hey, I can't be as bad as her grandpa! Hahaha!!" Jermine quipped back, causing a grin to creep up on Alexander's lips and he could only helplessly agree.

When his laughter ended, Jermine finally turned away from his old friend and the young girl he considered as much a niece than any of his other nieces by blood and turned to look deeply at the cat standing by her feet, looking innocently at there whole exchange with mirth in her eyes.

Now looking at the Magical Beast proper, Jermine still found it difficult that a Magical beast like this one before him could even exist, but through the power of his Conscious Eye, he could not deny the flowing aura in the silver cat's body. It had to be understood, that there has never been a Magical Beast he has heard of, even in legends, of Magical Beasts that look exactly like normal everyday animals. Usually, Magical Beasts would have some kind of mutation; an extra tail, a fiery mane, extended fangs. But the cat in front of him looked exactly like a normal house cat, and this fact bewildered him, and he could only come up with several theories.

Snapping out of his hazy inner thoughts, Jermine finally bowed towards Lexa, giving her respect as the Tamed Beast of his Young Miss as he introduced himself. "As the Wilderwolf Family's personal Beast Tamer, Jermine, I would like to personally welcome the Young Miss's Tamed Beast, Lexa to the family."

"Hmm, it is nice to see you too." Lexa smile as she greeted back, and an excited glint could be seen twinkling in her green and red eyes as she drooled in thought secretly. "…And thank you very much for all the future Magical Items you will give to me!!"

Lexa was rather excited at the prospect of gather more Magical Items, her use of the Crimson Iris Bangle in recent days shining a light on how useful and powerful a Magical Item can be, especially one's of Gold Rarity like her own bangle.

After a little more casual conversation between the four, Jermine eventually lead the three into the confines of the Tamer Building. Jermine personally lead them forward, highlighting to Lexa the fact that she could not see any servants littering the building's long halls unlike in the main estate where servants were at every corner. As Jermine lead them forward, him and Alexander began to talk amongst themselves while Andria leaned down to pick Lexa up into her arms. Making sure to continue following her Daddy and Uncle, Andria began to talk with Lexa, creating a conversation of their own.

"Uncle Jermine is Andria's favourite Uncle! He's nearly at Aunt Lea's level, and that's rather hard; Aunt Lea's so cool after all." Andria gushed about her Uncle and Aunt, giving Lexa some new insight into the dynamics of the Wilderwolf family. "Andria likes Uncle Jermine because he's so kind, he lets Andria play with all of his pets!"

Hearing and seeing how Andria's eyes lit up as she spoke of that last part, Lexa began to ponder if Andria actually liked Jermine as much as she actually liked his Tamed Beasts. Lexa never got to ask this thought out loud as at that time, the four of them had just arrived at their destination.
