Kai sent Rein an invitation on the time they'd agreed on and after 4 seconds, the mansion's gate got knocked. The mansion had high walls that were surrounding itself so it was impossible to see inside from the outside of the walls.
All three of them went to greet him and opened the huge black wooden gates. Just like they'd agreed on, the ex-henchman was alone. Seth thought he seemed a little bit nervous and was trying to hide it. He was probably right.
Alina offered the bleached haired guy a warm hug but he didn't forget to pull Kai into the hug too. Rein laughed;
"Been a long time~! I should've guessed your girlfriend'd be with you too."
"Welcome Rein." Kai ignored Rein's last sentence while Alina kept smiling at him.
They were all wearing casual clothes except the leader of Iron Shield. Alina said it'd be more friendly, Seth to greet Rein with casual clothes. So here they were;
Alina was wearing a short buttermilk colored dress with a black corset with two buttons. The bell sleeved dress's shoulders were open and it had sky blue ribbons each side. The ribbons were matching with the one on her hair. She was also wearing mid-height boots
Kai was embracing the darkness in his soul like usual with his long sleeved black shirt, dark grey pants and white sneakers. Very different from Seth who was wearing a white sleeveless hoodie underneath of his early bird purple and black oversized bomber jacket, black shorts and a pair of white boots, just like the ones he had at his home in the real world. And of course they all had their guild exclusive accessories on them.
"Welcome." Seth extended his hand to Captain Rein who was at least 10cm taller than himself. Tough looking man accepted it while giving out a flashy smile;
"Nice to meet you, I'm Rein."
"Seth." he gave a small smile in return.
They got inside the mansion while Rein commented on how beautiful it was. They sat on the 10 people table in the front yard cause the fountain was causing an amazing scene when the sunlight hit the water just perfect and making all drops look like crystal pieces. Misha and Kira were playing together while Alina was bringing the apple pie she baked yesterday. That was when Rein looked around and whispered;
"So, when do I meet 'The Big Bad Boss'?"
Seth smiled wider while Kai looked over the shorter blonde boy, worried.
"Umm.. Rein-" started Kai but Seth cut in;
"-I think 'The Big Bad Boss' you're looking for is me."
Rein's eyes opened widely as possible;
"Huh?!"
"Surprised?" the blonde raised his eyebrows.
"Yeah! I mean you're a bit.. small."
Seth just kept smiling and that was what the black haired one was worried about. The pink shaded boy looked at his puppy and whistled him to come over then commanded;
"Misha, Combat Form."
The cute little puppy transformed into a giant majestic creature in front of their eyes. Tough looking ex-henchman jumped off of his seat while pointing at Seth;
"You! You're! From that time! You saved our lives on the 25th Dungeon!!"
"You remember!" Seth grinned while clapping happily.
"Didn't you promise me not to scare him?" Kai asked calmly.
"But he called me 'small'." Seth pouted.
"You ARE small." the black haired boy pointed out.
Pink shaded boy glared at his best friend then sighed;
"Misha, Default Form."
The giant beast immediately transformed into his original puppy-self.
"I have no regrets." Seth muttered to himself.
The conversation began naturally since most of them knew each other already. It was mostly Rein, Alina and Kai talking at first but then Seth joined in as well.
"So, where are the others?" asked Rein.
"The others?" Alina asked back.
"Y'know, other members of The RoadHouse."
"Oh, there is us." Seth replied simply.
Rein laughed at the 'joke' but when he saw everyone's expression was pretty serious;
"WHAT?!" he exclaimed.
Seth explained everything briefly, leaving some subjects out, such as him being actually a girl, the whole Mage Knight situation and the glitch on the 13nd Island.
He liked Rein, he really did. The spiky mullet haired man was one of the friendliest people he'd met in the game. He was looking like a kind of person who would never hold grudges against others and always ready to lend a helping hand. Seth could tell he was very loyal to Kai, despite Kai was treating him with coldness, most of the time. That's just how he was though.
After the hours they spent together in front yard, Seth decided to give Rein a house tour just like he did when Kai and Alina stepped in to the mansion for the first time. After that, he also offered him to spend the night, stating they had more than enough guest rooms, but Rein rejected him politely, very much unwillingly though. He said he had to be in a raid and had to go soon. Seth added him 'Friends' before he could leave, almost causing Rein to having a heart attack when Seth's actual level appeared.
"Thank you so much for inviting me to your guild base and again for that time on the 25th Island." Rein bowed in respect.
"You don't have to thank me and I'm really glad that I got the chance to have you in our home, I'm sure everyone is and I hope we can strengthen the relationship between our guilds more in the future."
"I'd really like that." Rein smiled before he teleported back to his own guild.
"Good job, Big Bad Boss." Kai gave Seth an encouraging smile while patting his back. Seth didn't make a witty comeback like the he usually do, instead only smiled, sincerely.
'It was a nice day.' he thought while Alina was calling for Kai.
