[8]Romania

"hey Dulio, what do you think looks cooler, green or blue?" I asked

"Blue or green?, hmm I guess I would choose green" Dulio answered me.

"Why do you ask?"

"Oh no reason" guess I'll make you my Hersher of wind.

It's been a week since Dulio joined the orphanage. He was quite shy at first but he managed to fit in.

His kind personality was the main factor besides his aura that made people naturally like him.

He has also integrated himself into my group that includes Dulio, Lavinia, Welt, Himeko and me.

Of course he doesn't know that we have powers and stuf like that, not until he awakens [Zenith Tempest] that is.

We are currently going through the back to the school so that we could go to lunch, the period that we just came out from only has me and Dulio so we have to go to the other side of school to meet up with the others for lunch.

We continued to walk through the halls while we idly chated.

*Trip*

As we walked Dulio suddenly triped over his own foot. I was about to reach out and grab his shirt but a gentle breeze passed by me.

And to my surprise he began to float with air just before he hit the ground.

"W-what?" He seemed baffled as to why he was floating, the wind that was carrying him suddenly disappeared and dropped him on the floor.

The dumbfounded Dulio stood up and looked at me.

"..."

"...well it seems like we need to have the talk"

"The talk?" He asked in confusion.

"Yup the talk" I answered back

----

"So the supernatural is real!?" Asked Dulio with excitement.

Yep I just gave him the basic rundown of the magical world and about his sacred gear.

He was quite scared at first but once I told him that the gang was the same as him Dulio immediately calmed down and became exited.

"Yes, from now on you will be training with is on the weekend" it's better if he trains with us, I don't want him creating stuff by accident.

"Yes let's do that" he said enthusiasticly, he's still a kid I guess. Any child would be exited to have coolpl power.

Dulio might not understand how important his sacred gear is right now but I'm sure he will in the future.

we went back on track and arrived at the rooftop of the school were we usually hang out.

"You're late" said welt, we did take a while to come here especially since I explained the supernatural stuff to Dulio.

"We got held up, a thing or two happened but it's nothing important" I answered back, I'll tell them latter about Dulio having [Zenith Tempest] but not right now since we are in public.

I won't reado the same mistake I did with Ms. Scot.

"Whatever you say Otto, hurry up otherwise the girls will eat up all the food" Joked welt, we usually bring a whole ass picnic to school and eat togheter.

"Hey, I don't eat so much!" Exclaimed Himeko in indignation.

"Mou, Don't make jokes like that, welt~" said Lavinia in an annoyed tone.

He only rolled his eyes at them and returned to eating his sandwich.

Me and Dulio joined them in lunch as we continued to talk.

"So what Sacred Gears do you guys have?" Asked Dulio casually.

I could see the group stifen up from surprise. Then Welt looked at me as if asking me for an answer.

"Hehe well, Dulio awakened his sacred gear a few minutes ago~" I answered wrily.

Looks like I'll have to teach him to not talk about magic and stuf in school.

2 month later-

It's been two months and it's finally winter break, why is that a good thing you may ask?.

Because I finally have time to go find Gasper and Valerie.

I will be going to Romania soon to check out some locations that I think the both of the might be in.

Of course Ms. Scot is aware of this, it took some convincing and it was very hard to do so since I couldn't just tell her that I'm going to get two Longinus welders that I absolutely shouldn't know about.

Luckily she respected my secret as she trust me, I really am lucky to have her.

She also gave me some money so that I can make the travel Wich will last me a weeks time, enough time for me to check things out and come back.

Of course this trip is also for training, just spars with the gang isn't enough for me s I need some real life experience.

I'm sure there's at least one pedophile bloodsucker that will try to assault my 12 year old body for it's blood.

It's already around 7 of the morning and I've already prepared my bags Wich are in my system storage, the thing is pretty dam convenient.

I am also wearing my S-Rank Luocha suit along with the strap under my belt, [Lumina].

Gotta stay straped in the streets.

Oh yeah by the way, despite mainly using [Kaslana Style Gun-Kata] I've also been training in the ways of the spear with Ms. Scots guidance. I really really want to use [Spirit Spear: Chastiefol] since it's a extremely good weapon. I could probably move it through the air like King with honkai energy while using gun-kata but it's to taxing to do to many things at once right now.

It's harder than you would think to controll a weapon through pure energy control while fighting at the same time.

I'll get there eventually but not right now.

After making sure that everything was ready I headed out towards the entrance.

As I made my way there I was greeted by the sight of the gang and Ms.scot waiting for me, probably to wish me goodbye for now.

I approached them and Ms. Scot spoke "Alright Otto you know the rules, if somebody tries to do something bad to you-"

"Blast them into oblivion" I finished her sentence.

She only chuckled and gave me a kiss on the forehead l "be careful sweetheart"

"Yes don't worry" I reassured her.

"Be carefull Otto" said Himeko as she gave me a hug Wich I reciprocated.

"Come back quickly ok!, it's hard to sleep without hugging you~" Said Lavinia with a smile.

I could only smile wrily at her as Himeko gave her a glare.

As Lavinia finally got comfortable with me, she seems to have slipped into my bead to sleep with me, no horny btw were 12, or me at least.

Of course she wouldn't just slip into any bodies bed but she trust me the most out of all people, she's attached to me like a puppy.

Lavinia is like a golden retriever that likes to use me as a bodies pillow. She also passed the 80% relationship score a while back allowing me to turn her into my Hersher of ice, when using her hersher powers Lavinias Ice powers can be greatly boosted if she uses her sacred gear while using ice Hersher powers.

With a nodd I set of to find Valeria and Walmart Dio.

Somewhere in Romania-

Well it was easier than I thought it would be.

I've already arrived in Romania in about half a day thanks to my powers and physical strength.

Of course I wrapped my chains aroud my body and [Sealed] my precense so that I could get past checkpoints.

I basically speed blitzed the whole trip.

Currently I am scouting one of the castles on my list.

As I searched around the outer walls I didn't see nothing or no vampire so I got close, i also deactivated my sealing since I've been using it for half a day. It's a waste of energy and I can just look around as a 'tourist' while just [Sealing] my mana instead of my whole being.

I got down the building and into the alley, coming out of it I blended into the streets filled with people.

Although the sun is setting already, the people on the streets taking pictures of the castle haven't decreased.

Of course the reason people are taking pictures from outside is because it's private property thus they can't enter.

But that's perfect for me since I'm just scouting.

And with the winter snowfall, I'm even more concealed.

As I pushed through the sea of tourist I finally managed to get the the front gate or should I say front bridge?

The thing was really huge.

It looked like one of those bridges you would see in medieval movies Wich could be moved down and up.

I continued to take pictures of any entrances or crevices I could find. Anything that could get me inside or could tell me that this was a Vampire household or should I say castlehold?.

"Whoa!, what's with that resolution!?. I bet anime would look better with that!" Said a childish voice behind me.

I was to focused on what I was doing so I mindlessly answered "Of course it's great, this camera has 48k resolution" For a world as advanced as the Honkai universe, having 48k resolution was the 'common' resolution or at least that's what the science for dummies book showed us.

I can wait to get my hands on the more advanced one.

"really?,let me see!" The person behind me yanked the camera off my hands.

"Oi fucker!, who do you think you...are" as I was a out to yell at the person who took my camera without permission, I suddenly realized who was in front of me.

Delicate yet soft looking skin that looked like porcelain, beautiful dep blue eyes, and the most prominent of her features would be the crimson hair that flowed down her shoulders. She also looked about my age.

'Rias Fucking Gremory' I though, if she's here than it means that her meeting with Gasper is close or she hasn met him already and reincarnated him into a devil.

I Snaped out of my daze and snatched the camera out of her hand.

"Hey I was looking!" She pouted,

'god she's truly a child' I thought as I looked at the spoiled princess.

"And?, you don't just snatch other people's stuff" I retorted.

She winced at my response but soon recovered, reaching I to her pockets she took out...10 bands each worth 10,000 dollars...

"Here, you can have this and you give me the camera" she began shoving the money at my chest as her hand slithered towards my camera but I backed off.

"No!, I don't care about money, Scram" I told her off she seemed shocked as I had just rejected as to what most humans would instantly accept in a heart beat.

But I'm not giving it, the 'camera' in my hand is CENTURIES ahead of its time. And giving it to a child that doesn't even knownits worth is something I won't do even if I can make more with [Reason].

And sending such high technology to the Lucifer is dangerous since he himself can probably see it's worth even if it's just a camera.

Wait... If she's here than anything least Grayfia should be with her-

"Lady rias I've been looking for you!" Said a voice behind me

My body tensed as I slowly looked behind me.

In all her glory a beautiful silver haired maid rushed towards us in a calm yet elegant manner.

'shit I need to get out of here' I thought as I felt an impending crisis was about to happen.
