Chapter 75: Someone Extraordinary

At Raine's Hide-out, Country V

In front of his computer, Levi was busy tracing the CCTV footage of the lollipop boy since it was their task to hunt the man down and retrieve the list that he stole from their Boss.

"What are you doing, Uncle?"

Levi quickly placed his palm on his chest at the sudden intrusion. He was startled by Aire's sudden appearance beside him.

"Ah! You almost gave me a heart attack Aire," Levi scolded. "Please don't just pop up like that out of nowhere." Levi scolded.

"Sorry, Uncle. I'm craving some milk, so I went out to make some hot milk for myself. But then I saw the light coming from the living room. Why are you working here?" Aire asked as she looked at his screen.

"Well, I can't sleep yet, so I thought of checking out something on my laptop," Levi chuckled as he confessed. "That, and I love this massage chair in the living room so I sat here while working. And why are you asking?" 

"That's not my daddy," Aire uttered out with a pout as she stared at the man on the screen. 

Levi felt confused with her reply, which seemed to come completely out of nowhere. He followed her gaze and he frowned. It would seem that he had left the CCTV footage from their minimart where the lollipop boy left a note of his trading proposal playing on his laptop since he was trying to get a better angle of the man.

"Of course, he's not your father! That guy's a snatcher. He stole the list from your mommy. Aire…" he scoffed. "Instead, how about you practice calling me Daddy? Don't you think I'm good enough to be your daddy?" Levi shamelessly suggested.

Aire's face soured as she mumbled, "Uncle, I already have a daddy, so please stop that. You're simply just an uncle."

Levi frowned, at her words, but Aire simply ignored him. With a breath, she suddenly whispered, "The booklist is a decoy." 

"Huh?" Levi breathed out in bewilderment. His eyes widened in confusion as he stared at Aire.

"What Mommy should be looking for is the ledger if she wanted to find out more about those Exordiums…"

Levi's jaw dropped as he whispered, 'What- Who are you? How come you know about all these things?! Can you explain a bit further so I can follow?"

Aire had a sly smile on her face as she playfully pouted, "Make me some hot milk first, Uncle, and a medium-rare beef steak too. Plus, I want a cheese macaroni side dish. Ah, wait, I'm craving for roasted pork too."

Levi's mouth twitched upwards as he huffed, "Ah, not this time… I won't fall for your tricks again! How dare you lie and make up a story right in front of your uncle's face just so that you can order me around? Hmmph!"

Aire only giggled, amused by her Uncle's sulking expression.

At that moment, Levi was about to stand up since he was only acting in front of Aire. Of course, it was a given that he couldn't just ignore this cute little adorable kid's request just like that. Then his mobile phone rang, making him frown. The call was from the minimart, which they had recently evacuated ever since Nathaniel managed to locate it.

He immediately answered it.

"What?!" He burst. He then suspiciously stared at Aire while listening to the report from another line. "Ah, that bastard!" Levi swore. He looked so displeased.

As soon as the call ended, Levi looked at Aire and said, "Come, let's go to the kitchen and I'll prepare everything you want."

Aire excitedly nodded and quickly ran to the kitchen. Meanwhile, Levi suspiciously looked at Aire as he followed the little girl to the kitchen. The had been about a report that the man in a black mask had just come back and left the booklist there. The minimart already reported the incident to Lyne, and she would be the one to relay it to Raine. Mia was already sleeping, so he would just have informed her in the morning about it.

'If that was the case, then that booklist could truly just be a decoy like what Aire said. Who is this girl? How come she knows a lot about these things?' Levi pondered before Aire interrupted his thoughts. 

"Come on, Uncle! Hurry up! I'll answer all your questions, whatever they are, if you move faster!"

Levi flinched. Aire had already seemed to read his mind.

"Fine, I'll prepare your sumptuous snacks!" Levi snorted as he grabbed the apron and other kitchen utensils that he needed.

Watching him work, Aire sat on a chair by the kitchen counter as she waited patiently for her Uncle Levi to prepare all of her requested food. 

"Don't you know that midnight snacks aren't healthy for the body?" Levi chided with a scolding tone while chopping some onions.

"I'm a werewolf, Uncle, remember? Do you prefer me to eat raw meat as my snack?" She teased, giving Levi a growl followed by letting of starving look as if she was drooling to eat him.

"You're a bully like your mommy. Do you know that? Stop it, Aire!" Levi scolded, making Aire giggle. The kid was amused with how much she succeeded in scaring Uncle Levi. "Instead of watching me, how about you tell me everything you know about the ledger you just mentioned?" he asked.

"Hmm… Everyone had thought that the booklist had the details about Exordiums since it has a spell… But that wasn't the case. It's just a decoy," Aire casually explained. "Well, those Exordiums succeeded since their enemies have been looking for that booklist for centuries instead of the ledger that really contained all the details about them."

"Why on earth do you know about all of this, AIre?" Levi questioned out in disbelief.

Aire gave him a cunning smile, "Because I'm Mommy's daughter, so it's only natural for me to be this brilliant. Don't you agree, Uncle?"

"This isn't funny, Aire. Uncle is serious, so stop cracking those jokes," Levi gave her a mean stare. "You're killing me with curiosity here."

Aire giggled and whispered, "Oh, Uncle… You'll have to die of curiosity then. I don't have any plans on telling you everything now. But maybe soon enough, when time permits, you'll get to have some juicy info from me. For now, I'm only willing to share with you a bit of what I know, Uncle. So don't get sulky, okay?"

Levi shook his head. He could feel that Aire was someone extraordinary.

'I should check her profile more.. Dig deeper,' he mused while staring at the little girl who was now drooling as soon as she saw the meat he readied.
