The Extra's Dominance

After immediately dealing with the monsters, Eve and the others continued their advance...

"You should've left some monsters alive for me..."

Alec then mumbled, he sounded slightly down.

"No fair... I want some action too."

Blake then followed with the same energy as Alec.

"..."

Curtis isn't saying anything, but he looks really impatient and fidgety.

And seeing them like that... Eve couldn't do anything but frown.

"..."

She couldn't say anything because she doesn't even know what to say in that situation!

Adelle, Raven, and Aoi are staying silent too as they don't know what to say either.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

So the group just continued marching forward with the awkward atmosphere surrounding them...

*****

Outside the [Labyrinth of the Nurturer].

In Hebriz City, where the Obadiah family is staying...

Alfred and Elaine are in their house, sitting in the living room.

(They're Raven's Parents)

They're facing each other with serious expressions on their faces and not saying anything...

Then after a while...

"Do you think it's true?"

Alfred spoke, asking Elaine a question.

"Probably... Nisha got the information from Raven's friends after all."

Elaine responded.

(Nisha is Raven's, cute lil sis!)

Then after that...

"..."

"..."

The both of them got silent again, seemingly thinking about something.

...

"I... Can't believe it."

Elaine then mumbled in disbelief, shortly breaking the silence engulfing the couple.

"Me too..."

And Alfred spoke in the same manner.

"..."

Not being able to suppress it anymore...

Hup-

Elaine stood up.

"That stupid son of ours!"

Then she exclaimed, sounding slightly annoyed!

"Honey?!"

Alfred exclaimed, he got surprised by Elaine's actions.

But that didn't end there...

Bam!

Elaine slammed her hands on the table between her and Alfred!

Then while still wearing an annoyed expression on her face...

"Our Raven has 2 girlfriends and we haven't met either of them yet..!"

Elaine exclaimed.

"Shhh... Nisha is sleeping upstairs..."

Alfred softly said.

"Maybe he just forgot or they're busy."

He then added to calm down Elaine.

"Busy? We wouldn't even know if Nisha didn't tell us!"

But it wasn't very effective...

"Elaine..."

This time, Alfred called out Elaine's name softly.

Which made her stop and look at him...

"Raven wouldn't forget to tell us something important like that... Maybe he's just preparing or there's a situation that's stopping him from telling us immediately."

Alfred then calmly said.

(Raven actually just forgot...)

"... You're right."

And Elaine calmed down.

After thinking about it again, Elaine realized that Raven isn't someone who would hide things from them.

Considering that Raven even told them about him regaining his past life memories, which is a hard decision for him because they could've reacted in a bad way.

"I just got worked up after knowing that Raven have girlfriends for quite a while now and he didn't even mention it to us."

Elaine mumbled.

"I was too... But let's just wait until Raven tells us about it himself."

"Yeah, let's do that..."

And with that, the couple's conversation about that topic ended...

"Anyway... I've finished dealing with those shits."

Alfred then started a new topic.

"Oh, you mean about Jericho, Jayson, and Prem?"

Elaine asked.

(They were the ones who bullied Raven when he was still unawakened, they appeared in chapters 40-42.)

"Yeah, I made sure they wouldn't be able to go near Raven again."

Alfred said.

"I let them go in the past because they were children, and Raven looked so determined to deal with them himself at that time..."

"But now is different... I don't want any of those vermins near my family."

"Even their parents are trash for not correcting their sons...! Instead, they're even condoning them to destroy Raven!"

Alfred then exclaimed, he looks really angry.

(Jericho, Jayson, and Prem are the only child in their families, and they're spoiled asf.)

"So... What did you do again?"

Elaine calmly asked Alfred, she understands his anger.

Anyway... Hearing Elaine's question made Alfred look at her.

And with a sly smile...

"I planted an unsigned Demon Contract in each of their houses, then I sent an anonymous report to the Heroes Federation..."

"... '3 families are planning to make a contract with the Demons'..."

Alfred told Elaine what he did.

"And guess what, almost all of them were actually planning to sign a contract with the Demons... Idiots."

"Anyway... News about that incident is already spreading in the Human Domain, now they wouldn't be able to go back into society even if they miraculously avoid life imprisonment."

"I'm so glad I held myself back from killing them, now they will suffer from torture or something even worse that they wish they were dead instead in the hands of those federation bastards."

Alfred continued like he was just telling a normal daily story that one tells during family dinner!

"I watched them get taken by the authorities yesterday, their faces are funny..."

And he added with a satisfied smile on his face!

Alfred's face just then would've sent even Raven the creeps if he saw it.

(Remember guys... Alfred has a trait called <Merciless Enemy>)

"Oh, I wanna see it, their faces at that time..."

Elaine then mumbled, seemingly disappointed.

"Don't worry, I recorded it."

But when Alfred said that...

"Oh, thank you, honey!!"

Elaine immediately got her energy back!

"By the way..."

But then... Alfred spoke again in a serious tone.

Elaine looked at him and waited for him to talk.

And without further ado...

"Your shitty half-sister will be coming soon to visit us."

Alfred told Elaine the news, he was hesitant to say since earlier.

"Oh..."

Elaine's mood then became unreadable when she heard it.

"Are you okay now to face her without feeling guilty?"

Alfred asked.

Elaine nodded her head...

She then looked at Alfred seriously.

"I think... It's time for us to come out in the world."

Then she declared that!

"!"

Alfred widened his eyes in surprise, but he immediately calmed down.

"Are you sure? I thought you don't want to attract the Demons' attention to keep Raven and Nisha safe?"

He asked.

"I can feel it... We wouldn't be able to hide for long, so I think we should get ready."

And Elaine responded.

"My father left us a lot of things to use too before he disappeared, he said it'll greatly help us in case we decided to stop hiding..."

She added.

Alfred silently looked at Elaine for a while...

Then he smiled, with the warmest smile he could muster...

"Okay, I'll support you in your decisions... I'll always be there for you, no matter the case... And I'll make sure everything's gonna be alright."

Alfred reassured Elaine.

"Thank you, honey..."

Elaine mumbled with a sweet smile and she hugged Alfred...

"Now... Let's organize everything, so we could finish before Raven comes out of the dungeon."

"I want to surprise him."

Alfred suggested.

"Oh, that's a good idea!"

And Elaine happily agreed to him!
