My Master Is A Tsundere

"Grrrr…"

Veia gritted her teeth in frustration. She touched her face and felt that it was still the beautiful face that she has. There was no reason for Rant Valo to deny her moves so calmly.

"..."

"..."

"..."

The trio walked deeper into the cave without any noise other than their footsteps. They didn't talk to each other. Rant Valo was disinterested in talking as the image of Zaria is still floating in his mind.

His claustrophobia seems to have gone away with Zaria's image in his mind. It brought him a sense of calm and a sense of peace. It was like there is nothing in the world that will sway his determination.

The trio finally reached another cave opening. It was a large space. There were racks of hanging clothes and a chair. All of the furniture was very old and dilapidated.

It was like this place was never cleaned in decades.

"It stinks!"

Floriana Sabina held her nose as she walked inside the cave. It smells old and moldy. There was a weird stench hovering in the air.

"What is that smell?"

Rant Valo was also pinching his nose from the smell. It smelled kinda rusty but also rotten.

"What do you mean, Master?"

Veia asked after seeing that they were covering their noses. She doesn't smell anything from the place other than the old and damp smell. It smelled similar to what was in the cave they passed earlier.

"You don't smell it, Veia?"

Rant Valo asked her in bewilderment. The rotten and rusty stench was too strong for him to handle. It was like he was inhaling rust inside his lungs.

"I do not, Master?"

Veia tilted her head cutely. She sniffed the air but she still couldn't smell anything bad.

"Was that where you got that black cloak?"

Rant Valo asked Veia as he pointed at a bunch of black cloaks hanging on a cloth rack. It all looks similar in size and appearance to the one Veia was wearing.

"Yes, Master. I quickly got this one and exited the cave as I was feeling hungry."

Veia explained to Rant Valo. Floriana Sabina picked up one of the black cloaks hanging and there was an expression of amazement on her face as she examined it.

"This is a hide of a Core Formation Greybat. I never thought I'd see one in this place…"

Floriana Sabina suddenly said. Rant Valo and Veia looked at her in wonder. How could she know such a thing?

"Are you sure, Master? I don't think stuff from Core Formation stage experts can just be lying inside a cave."

Rant Valo expressed his doubt at her words. He was a villager but even he knew how rare and valuable stuff from a Core Formation monster is. It was a price that even he is not capable of imagining.

"I'm sure of it. I have held one before 200 years ago."

Floriana Sabina nodded her head seriously. She really didn't expect that they would stumble into a treasure cave like this.

"200 years ago!?"

Rant Valo jumped back in fright at what she said. He must be imagining things, right!? There's no way a young-looking girl like her is more than 200 years old!

"What? Have a problem with that?"

Floriana Sabina raised an eyebrow at Rant Valo's exclamation of shock. She was displeased at the way he was looking at her like a monster.

"N-no…"

Rant Valo really didn't know what to say. He consoled himself by thinking that she was just spouting bullshit to scare him. It was very effective though he thought.

"So that was why this black cloak lasted longer than the furniture inside this cave!"

Veia suddenly exclaimed in understanding. It was something that bothered her when she first entered this part of the cave.

"Yes. For a lewd demon, you have some use left for your brain."

Floriana Sabina nodded her head at Veia's words sassily. Veia frowned at Floriana Sabina's words. Floriana Sabina has been rude to her for a while now.

"What do you mean by that, Grandmaster?"

Veia forced a smile on her face. She was scared of Floriana Sabina's strength but she has her master to rely on!

"Stupid demon!"

Floriana Sabina shouted at her.

"Hey, hey, stop it!"

Rant Valo went over in between them. He feared that they would go all out and fight if he didn't stop them.

"Hmph!"

"Master…"

Floriana Sabina turned around and snorted while Veia looked at Rant Valo pitifully like she was just bullied.

"Veia… you should not argue back with someone like her."

Rant Valo cautioned Veia.

"Yes, Master…"

Veia looked down like she just made a horrible mistake.

"Wha-! What do you mean by that!?"

Floriana Sabina heard Rant Valo's words and pulled his shoulder so he would face her. Rant Valo fell over as he was not prepared for her suddenly pulling his shoulders.

He fell down towards Floriana Sabina. He accidentally pushed her down because of it.

"D-disciple! Wh-what are you doing??"

Floriana Sabina was under Rant Valo. Rant Valo was supporting himself using his hands.

"Your face is too close!"

Floriana Sabina slapped Rant Valo by reflex. Her face was a bright shade of red.

"Ugh!"

Rant Valo was smacked away to unconsciousness.

"Master!"

Veia ran towards Rant Valo and checked his breathing. She sighed in relief when she noticed that he was still breathing.

"Why did you do that to master!?"

Veia stood up and bared her fangs at Floriana Sabina. Her sharp vampire teeth were shining sharply.

"Wh-what did I do?!"

Floriana Sabina realized her mistake and ran towards Rant Valo's side. Her strike earlier was very strong. She feared that he got injured from her strike. A medicinal pill appeared in her hands and she fed it to Rant Valo.

"What did you feed my master!?"

Veia looked at Floriana Sabina warily. She was ready to attack her.

"Relax, Stupid lewd demon! I fed him a medicinal pill. He should wake up in a while."

Floriana Sabina explained to Veia while trying to hide her blushing face.
