62 Soul Mates (2/2)

The old man brushed her off with a wave. ”I would expect no less from Arch Wizard Laurel's only daughter.” He then walked out of the office in a hurried fashion.

Sierra looked at me in awe. ”The vice guild leaders daughter? You mother is the famous ”Ice Cold Laurel Dragonmaw?”

I shrugged, I had no idea about my mothers nickname or her reputation. ”If you are talking about Vice leader Laurel that's in front of you then yes. She is my mother. Don't ask, it's a long story.”

My mother sighed as she looked at us. ”Why don't you ever bring me good news Yuri? When was the last time you took me to the bathes?”

I laughed, ”The bathes aren't even open right now. What can you do about my team? I am very satisfied with Sierra, even if she is lacking any blessings. But, I need another member. You said we would need a team of four. Unless you plan on taking the last spot?” I eyed her suspiciously at the end.

My mother waved her hand dismissively. If what you said about what's going on downstairs then there will be plenty of available adventures to be assigned to new teams. I will see what I can do. It looks like all you're lacking is a capable warrior. But in that regard you will never find someone as good as Hylia was. Even finding someone as capable as Micah was hard.”

I nodded at her words. ”If that is the case then just find us someone good, it doesn't matter the class. And preferably female. We can just use Hylia as a tank. Her archery works at close range anyways, and she has incredible defense.”

Laurel looked between Hylia and me. Hylia lifted up her front legs, and crossed them. She somehow put on an arrogant expression that seemed to be teasing her aunt. My mother scrunched up her face at Hylia and said ”Don't you give me any sass young lady”.

I was shocked at my mothers words. ”You can hear her?”

My mother shook her head. ”Of course not, the only one that can hear her is you. She's YOUR familiar. But I have raised that child for a long time. If I couldn't understand her body language then I would he almost as dense as you.”

I pondered for a moment before saying. ”I'd she evolves will instill be able to? Like if she gains the ability to actually speak?”

”Of course. Shes a familiar now. Even if she were to somehow gain her original body back it doesn't change the fact that she shares your life force. If you want to get technical you guys are ”Soul Mates”.

My mother laughed at her own joke. To be fair Hylia was laughing too, just no one else could hear it.
