《Kindred》Chapter 27 - Bandits? I Must Protect Miss!

"... As I was saying the former leader's strength was balanced in all aspects."
"However, the new leader's strength lies in his speed." Prince explains to Miss.
"Speed? So basically no one was just quick enough?" Miss asks.
"Correct. Know that the only person capable in Quas to match its speed is my father." Prince Si says proudly.
"Cough." Sophia in the driver seat coughs loudly.
"... Alright, there are two people..." He says in defeat.
"But, why would anyone try and fail to hunt the leader instead of focusing on getting hundreds of Golden Cores?" Miss asks in disbelief.
"Good question! It's precisely because of the Core the former leader had was Black!" Prince Si says seriously.
"Black Core..."
"Awu..."
Black Core... The most expensive item on the market.
With only one Black Core, you could fund your own country!
"Then...?" It looks like Miss figured something out.
"Yes. Our Quas Empire exists only thanks to my ancestor who obtained the Black Core by slaying the Golden Griffin leader!" Prince Si says proudly.
I see... But, the current leader is Martial Sage rank, right?
There's no way for Martial Sage ranked beast to have a Black Core...
"Although the current leader is not strong enough to have such treasure as Black Core hidden inside him, it definitely holds a White one!" Prince Si says.
"Although the White Core won't bring much riches, it will definitely be helpful for Cultivators of Overlord rank and bellow. It would help Peak Martial Sages to breakthrough into Overlord in one go!" He exclaims happily.
Looks like Prince Si really wants that Core.
Hmm? Is he already a Peak Martial Sage cultivator?
"Hee... that would be certainly useful." Miss says greedily.

"Of course, if my Mei Mei desires it, I will definitely get it for you." Prince Si says seriously.
"Don't talk nonsense, you just told me that no one is able to match the leader's speed. How would you slay it?" Miss asks.
"En. That's why I brought my three brothers and Teddy with me. With their help, we will be able to restrict its movements." Prince Si says.
"Mm? Are they that strong?" Miss asks.
"Brother Marco may not look like it, but he is an Array Master. He will be able to trap the leader in a restricted space after the rest of us surround it." Prince Si explains.
Oh... So Brother Marco wasn't just an ordinary funny person.
He is an Array Master funny person!
It has been around 8 hours since we started traveling, my eyelid is heavy.
"Awuuu~" I yawn while closing my eye.
Thunk!
Something hits the side of the carriage.
"ORAAAA! ATTACK!" A man yells in a loud voice.
"Bandits!" Sophia shouts.
Startled, I open my eye.
Bandits? I must protect Miss!
I quickly stand in order to shield Miss.
"Haa... As expected, we can't have a day without trouble." Prince Si sighs.
"Stay here, I will quickly settle it." Prince Si pushes his hand against my head making me fall back into Miss's lap.

Blaze
The story of a fire elemental's life in a world dominated by mages. He will have to learn how to manage betrayals, treachery, and maybe even love as he goes on adventures to find a meaning to it all. From dark, humble beginnings he will rise... or fall, devastating amounts in his journey across the world. Hello, Author here! I am, unfortunately, rather terrible at coming up with descriptions that seem to have the right amount of decorum and yet actually serve their function of adequately describing the story, so here's the coursenotes. - The story follows a fire elemental. (As you can tell from that, it is heavily besed on fantasy with mages and the like. Technology will not feature prominently) -As mentioned in the tags, this will have game-like aspects. (E.G. levels, stats. I will be trying to put my own twist on this notion however, so bear with me if the premise intrests you but you despise LitRpg) -It'll get rather dark, but not devastatingly so. (I'm trying to write a more complex story so it will have its dark moments, the prologue being one of them. Rest assured the whole story will not be this dark, though I'll make sure that no-one is a saint either) -The protagonist/protagonists will not be a Mary-Sue. (The plural will be understood when I'm further into the story. They also won't be impossiby unlikeable such as those in many Light novels.) -There is no prophecy (Anyone who says there is, is lying, trust me.)

Philippines in Another World (Because Japan is too OP. Please Nerf)
This is the Philippines, the Pearl of the Orient Seas. It is a country of sunny weather and sweet smiles, where life is relatively simple (unless you are into politics) and where people are friendly and warm. However, it is not without flaws.For instance, Philippines suffer corruption in the government like other developing countries as well as decades of insurrection. The rich only gets richer and the poor gets poorer, while since time immemorial the country's denizens have this habit of hating their presidents and loving foreigners more than their own countrymen. It seems nothing has changed much since the famed EDSA Revolution of 1987.The year is 2042. Philippines has reached economic growth comparable to South Korea in 2022. Still, elite families control the government and social justice remains dismal. The younger population became increasingly materialistic while their parents are becoming more and more irresponsible. The problem has shifted from "how to decrease population" to "how to make spoiled kids' and parents' ass off to work".In terms of military power, the country has acquired considerate amount of firepower but remained one of the weakest in the ASEAN region thanks to politics. Worse, China and the USA has declared war against each other after a diplomatic blunder thanks to the incompetence of their respective new presidents. The world is doomed to a world war 3 while the Philippines was caught unprepared for war. Instead of finding solutions, politicians in the Philippines continued to blame their political enemies while the CBCP called everyone to prayer, hoping that God would make a miracle that make Philippines somewhat immune to nuclear weapons. Ironically, the prayer got answered in a way that is unimaginable....
