So now I find myself in front of the Boreas household, with Zeta, Delta, and Mu by my side.

Sauros Boreas Greyrat, the father of Philip Boreas Greyrat and grandfather to Eris Boreas Greyrat. He stood before me with his arms folded before him.

Philip sat on the couch, intensely looking at me and my three new allies of the night. Eris sat by my side while Rudy and Ghislaine were by Philip.

I sighed as Sauros loudly declared, "WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE, BOY?!"

I sighed as I rubbed my ear. I sat up as I crossed one leg into my lap as I said, "These are my aides. My servants, if you will. But they are close friends of mine as well. In terms of power... I would say that Sara here is the most physically adept amongst them. She currently rivals me in just raw might alone, capable enough of easily shattering dense rocks with brute strength and has immense senses that are greater than mine." I said as Sara smiled up at me as I pet her head, her tail wagging behind her.

Philip's eyes narrowed at me as I could practically sense how deep his desire for me was growing. With all that I have displayed before him so far, it was no surprise that his interest in me would have grown.

I glanced up at Sauros as he gave me an intrigued look. I might have Philip dancing in my palm for now, but with Sauros here, there's only so much I can get by under the radar. I thought. How do I reel him in? There's not much that I know about for me to go off of and I regrettably didn't think to look into him. If I did that back in my past life, I would've lost my head. I sighed as I continued,

"Then there's Lilim here, who is quite exceptional at tracking and is probably the most analytical member of my entourage. She is also quite proficient in magic and other theories like math and science." I said as she sat in my lap with her tail wrapped around me.

"Then there's Yukime here, who is skilled in both magic and swordsmanship and has a blend of both exceptional intellect and a powerful body. She's not as exceptional at physical combat as Delta is, but she is the most mature of them and someone I can place my back against." I stated.

Sauros eyed me warily as I grinned at that, I think I've begun figuring you out, Sauros.

Philip asked, "Why are they here now? How did they get past the guards and sentries constantly roaming the streets and the castle?"

"I called them here once Eris was abducted and asked for their assistance in case anything similar were to happen. As for how... you think with their skills that I wasn't the one who trained them?" I said with a smug look at the shocked expressions on their faces.
