Legacy Of Fire: Chronicles Of The F-ranked Anomaly-Chapter 78: I’m Ready Captain!

Darius was done with everything he was doing around the house, he was now getting ready to meet up with Theo. His black armor-like shirt clung to his frame as he prepared. He wore the energy gauntlet he got from Tegeshi, he didn’t need anything else since they were in his inventory.

He was scanning around, trying to see if he would spot what he needed to add before Theo arrived. ’So all I need now is...’

"Darius!" Lena yelled from the other room, and Darius’s facial expression changed. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

’Killing that young lady has to be one of the things I am missing.’ He said as he walked out of the room.

"Why is the troll princess yelling my name like that?" He walked out to see her on the dining table, her face was a bit grumpy. "What’s wrong?"

Lena looked at him, and a smile then popped up. "Eat breakfast with me!" she was looking at Darius with puppy dog eyes, it was like she was trying to pull him in.

"Huh?" Darius replied, standing there, he thought that there was something wrong with her. "You yelled my name just to get me to eat with you?"

"I don’t see anything wrong with that, besides today is your first raid, isn’t it?" She smiled, the innocent smile was enough to make a grown man fall.

Darius smiled back. He grabbed a plate and sat down, trying to avoid more talk. He could see the joy on Lena’s face when he sat down, he started eating whilst enjoying the moment with his sister.

"So, how has the Chen’s house been? You have been there a lot since I’m not around." He was looking at her.

Lena smiled and turned to Darius, "It has been fun, Lily and I are always going out with Mrs. Chen, and Uncle Liu said you are a one-of-a-kind warrior. He also told me that your rank is really high, and you will soon be a celebrity."

"I doubt that," Darius said with a mouthful. He turned to look at Lena, and he could see there was a strange look on her face, almost like she was scared.

"Is there something wrong? Did anything happen?"

Lena shook her head slowly. She was silent, and it seemed like there was something really bothering her.

Darius was still looking at her when he figured out what was making her sad.

"Even if I do get famous, nothing will change the fact that you are my little troll princess, so you don’t need to worry about people taking me away from you." He stared at her, and he could see the smile coming back to her face.

She began eating again whilst humming a melody. Darius went back to eating when he felt something. It was like someone was coming; he turned to the door’s direction, and it grew closer.

Ding, the doorbell rang.

Darius was surprised, he didn’t know if it was a coincidence or if he really did just feel someone come to the door.

"Must be Theo, he’s here awfully early." He got up from the chair and walked to the door. Opening it, he saw Theo standing there. He had his green armor on, and his expandable spear was in his right hand, and a pink gift bag with glitter in his other hand.

"Did the princess parade catch up to you?" Darius was looking at Theo, wondering what the gift bag was for.

Theo smiled as he looked at the bag. "Nope, I got something for Lena. She told me about this princess show she loved, so I went down to the store and got her something from the show."

"Eh?" Darius raised his brow, he was looking at Theo. "I am not taking you in as brother, having a sister already is tough work."

"I don’t need you to accept me!" Theo forced himself in, he spotted Lena on the dining table eating. A huge smile formed on his face as he called out for her. "Lena!"

Lena turned to look at him, and a smile could be seen on her face, too. "Big brother Theo!" She left her meal and ran to him.

"Please stop encouraging him." Darius was rubbing his forehead, he looked at them with a smile on his face. "Now I have two trolls to deal with."

"I got you something," Theo said, bringing the bag up, and he was shaking it in front of Lena. "I hope you will like it."

Lena’s eyes sparkled like she had found a pirate’s treasure chest. "A princess Blossom Tiara! Thank you, Theo!"

Lena brought out the tiara and put it on. She turned to Darius, jumping up and down like a cricket. "Darius, look at my tiara."

Darius walked close to her, he patted her head. "Congratulations, you are now an official Troll Princess!"

Lena gave him a nasty look, sticking out her tongue. Darius smiled as he turned to Theo.

"You’re ready, let’s finish up here before we head out." He walked back to the table so he could finish his breakfast.

"I got a message from the association, we would be pairing up with another mercenary guild today for the raid, and they said we would be taking two solo warriors along with us." Theo held Lena as he walked back to the dining table.

"Hmm, gonna be fun." Darius turned to him. "Which guild?"

"They didn’t tell me, said we would find out at the Lobby." Theo brought out something and handed it to Darius. "Here, this is our guild ID for now till we become an official guild."

Darius took it; the logo on the ID was a sword handle with a broken blade. He chuckled a bit.

"Broken Blades." He said before putting the ID into his pocket, he put on a necklace Lena had made for him.

"Whichever guild it is, we need to work together to make sure that there is no problem," Darius said softly. he knew there was a chance they would be meeting people with different attitudes.

"Agreed, we also need to make sure that the solo warriors won’t be suffocated. But then, aside from that, nothing is going to happen." Theo sounded ready for action.

"We are going to be okay, there is nothing going to stand in our way." He finished putting on the necklace, he then turned to Theo. "I’m ready, Captain!"
