Chapter 161: CH.160 Lucia’s first System Mission

“Brian, I need to talk to you for a minute. Could you come with me?” Lua asked me after lunch.

“Sure.” I responded. Not like I had anything else to do. They would just shove me back to that wannabe throne otherwise. 

And now I’m having that tour with Lua that I wanted.

She took me a bit away from the town hall, into an area that seems to be the town's graveyard. Just judging from all of the stones carved with names and dates. The dates were in a DD/MM/YYYY format and the years ranged from 1331 to 1363. That means this village has been here for at least thirty years. And I guess this is also the first time I’ve gotten any idea of the date in this world. Not that it really matters, but still. I do wonder, what is the year 0 of their calendar. Another thing I need to find out when I get back to the city.

 

Lua stopped in front of one grave that said Griffa, with the date 15/13/1359. Eh? 15/13? Like the fifteenth day of the thirteenth month? I thought the calendar was the same, but it is not.

Lua then got on her knees and said some things in a quiet voice. I just stood a few steps behind her, keeping quiet. I don’t need to ask who that grave belongs to. I have a pretty good guess.

 

“Come. Let’s go.” Lua said after she got up. “This is no place for a conversation.”

I just followed along.

She led us to one of the houses, well they are more like huts. Very basic wooden building.

“Is this your father’s house?” I asked.

“Kind of. There aren’t really individual houses in this village. They are shared by multiple people.” Lua answered. “But the other person moved to a different house, so this one is currently empty.”

“I see. You know a lot even though you haven’t been here for a while.” I commented.

“I did hear some of the gossip earlier.” Lua said. When she was going around, telling people new blood had arrived.

 

Lua then turned to me with a serious look on her face.

“Brian, I got a system mission.” She said.

A system mission? Lua got one? Nice. I’ve been wondering when she would get her first one. I assume this is her first one. 

“I wanted to ask what I should do about it.” Lua added.

“Well, I usually do them, if they aren’t too difficult.” I said. I have done all of the missions I have gotten this far. Of course I also have the two long term missions and those are still ongoing. “So it might help if you tell me what the mission is.”

“It says to teach dhampirs true blood magic.” Lua said.

… isn’t that simple? Lua got true blood magic after like a few days of training with Vampire Lady. 

“Yes. Is that the problem? If I recall correctly, it took you only a few days, right?” I asked her.

“No. That is not the problem. There is something strange about the mission.” Lua said. “... can I just show it?” 

(Of course you can, if you wish.) I heard Lua’s System Support in my head. (Just think or say ‘Open’.)

“Open.” Lua said quietly.
