Chapter 41 - Third Member (2/2)

”Ouch!!” Ur felt pain on her face as she received the punch through her mask.

Jin realize what he have done. He immediately think of an excuse. He then quickly grabbed the mask on Ur's face and push it forward.

”Your mask is gonna fall, don't think about anything else I just help you cover your face.” Jin said in a plain voice but he was secretly laughing inside his mind.

'Hahaha!! You dare to bring down that ice block to me! That's what you get!' He thought.

Jellal just looked at their interaction.

”Cough... We need to get out of here now!” Jin coughed forcefully and he changed the topic.

Ur could only sighed at him.

Then the three of them left the tower.

The rest of the slave use the boat in the shore to escape the island.

...

A day after this incident. The three were inside the inn.

”Here!” Jin give a mask to Jellal.

Jellal received it and observed the mask on his hand. The mask was colored silver with the guild crest at it's forehead. The mask would looked plain if it didn't have the guild crest.

”Let's put the mark of the guild on your body. Where do you want to put it?” Jin asked him.

”As you're grandpa I will decide it.” Jin didn't let him say anything.

Ur sighed looking at Jin.

Jin turned his head to Ur and said, ”You've change, Ur”

”Me?!” Ur pointed at herself.

”Yeah.” Jin nodded and said, ”Before you were just a protective master to your disciple and daughter, but now you're slowly becoming a violent woman.”

”Isn't because of you!!” Ur said to him loudly. ”I don't have anyone to talk but you. You.. You're slowly influencing me to become like this.”

”I've missed the gentle and mȧturė Ur” Jin said as he fake his sobbing. This woman was getting out of character. This isn't what I want!

”Anyway” Jin expression suddenly changed. ”Let's put the mark of the guild on you Jellal.”

Jin put the guild crest on the left shoulder of Jellal. It was dark blue in color just like Ur.

”From now on you're the third member of the Thousand Abyss. I'm happy for you Jellal.”

”Finally, we get another member. I'm actually getting bored with Jin. All he did was meditate if not making some trouble.”

”Congratulations!! Happy for you!! We will throw a party for you!! Yay!!”

”Hais... ”

”Aren't you happy? Aren't you happy? Tell me, are you happy?”
