The man was a Dragonborn with a single horn at the side of his head. Han already knew about the explosive anger of the Dragonborn in this Temple. He has been on the receiving end of that anger once or twice in his restaurant and he was already good at dealing with these idiots. Han tightened his hand on Lily’s thighs and tried to calm himself. He couldn’t destroy the town, he promised Yue. But if this idiot does anything again, he would die.
“Touch me again and even your god won’t be able to save you. You hit me and you are asking me to apologize? Are you an idiot? If you want an apology then come back when you deserve one”
The Dragonborn’s head heated up in anger! Who did this man think he was!? Did he not know that I’m a silver Star! I can kill him in a second if I want to! The Dragonborn looked down at the back of Han’s palm and he frowned when he saw the white Star there. Was this not that white Star that people have been talking about? The one who was too weak to even have a colored Star!? How dare he talk like he is strong!?
He took a step forward towards Han again, but someone suddenly appeared and held him back with a frown. Han’s brow rose when he saw who it was. It was that Lion girl that got the only silver Star before. What was she doing here?
Leona frowned at her partner. How can this man be causing trouble for such a small matter when they were just going out to have some fun in town!?
“Stop this Vulcan. Are you an idiot? Don’t you see the crowd you’re creating by doing this? It was obviously a mistake so just let it go! Do you want Roland to hear about this!?’
Vulcan looked down at Leona and then back at Han. That look of complete boredom on Han’s face still made his blood boil, but he decided to drop it since Leona was already promising that this matter would get to the superior if he continues. This man was lucky for now! He shrugged Leona’s hand off before walking to meet up with the other recruit they came out with.
Leona sighed while turning to Han. She was already used to Vulcan’s explosive temper so she hoped that Han would understand. She still recognized him from the time they all came in together. He was the one she was curious about at the start, but it was too bad that he wasn’t anything special, it would have been nice to know another strong person.
“Sorry about him. It was his mistake so please forgive him”
Han smiled and Lily waved away the apology from over his shoulder. Lily was still resting calmly on Han’s shoulder and Leona was a little surprised by how calm they all were. Did they not know that Vulcan was a silver Star? He could have killed all of them if he wasn’t stopped just now!
But it is also strange for Leona to see Lily and Yue hanging around Han so much. They were bronze and silver Stars, how can they be so subservient to a white Star? Oh well, maybe they were family? This little one here must be his daughter and maybe the other woman was his wife or girlfriend?
Leona asked if they were a family and Lily just gave a single sentence.
“Lily is Han’s and Han is Lily’s”
Han rolled his eyes but he didn’t say anything to refute her and Leona decided that she must’ve gotten her prediction correct. Yue literally agreed to being his daughter so that was that. What a nice family, it was nice that he decided to find happiness in other things instead of trying to fight through the Temple with his low level.
“Well, we have to be going now. Maybe we’ll meet somewhere later so we can all talk again”
Han said this as he and the girl began to leave. Leona gave them a wave while watching them go. Another reason she was so happy with seeing this family was because of how different it was from the one on Terracotta. Those idiots on her home world decided it was okay for one man to take many women and treat them however he wanted to! Just the thought of it made her want to pull her hair out! Just take one woman and be happy dammit! There is no way a family can be happy with many women and one man!
The other recruits came forward and Leona calmed down so they could all move to continue their trip.
….
The next time that Leona would meet Han was in his own restaurant. The Trinata guild decided that it was a good idea for all of them to go out together and get a meal, even Roland and Senna came along with them this time. The news of Han’s restaurant had been spreading throughout the first floor and they decided it was okay to spend their break there for the day.
Now keep in mind that Leona is a Lion feline, Roland is a cat feline and there were two Dragonborn in the group as well. So the moment they entered the restaurant and the unparalleled smell of meat entered their noses they were immediately salivating!
They had never smelt anything that could even come close to this! Rina came around once she saw the group and led them to a table at the other side of the restaurant and they immediately ordered five servings of Han’s special.
Rina was a bit shocked that they were willing to spend five gold coins for meat, but she could see that they were very rich from the kind of clothes they wore so she didn’t think they would try to leave without paying. She took their order and then walked away.
Leona followed her with her eyes as she left and noticed when Rina went to talk to someone behind the beer counter. The person was a man mixing a few drinks for a customer and once Rina pointed to Leona’s table, the man turned around. Leona’s eyes widened! It was Han! So this is where he is working to make money!? She didn’t think that man would have a skill like this one!
But Leona didn’t think it was important what Han was doing so she didn’t bother watching them again, she was just glad that he wasn’t doing something shady for money here. But then something else happened that made her ears twitch in shock. They kissed! This man just kissed that woman! Was he not meant to be seeing the other girl? Was her name not Lily? Why would he kiss this one when he was supposed to be seeing the other one!?
No… Is he… Cheating on her!? How dare he!?
Leona suddenly felt an intense amount of anger inside of her as she saw Han moving away. Rina took his position behind the counter and he walked into a room behind the restaurant. It was none of her business what he did. She tried to tell herself this over and over again, but she couldn’t get that anger away! She hated people like this! They were the scum of the earth and they didn’t deserve to even have anybody by their side!
How can he do this to that sweet girl that she saw the other day? How can he do this to his daughter!? She would be devastated if she ever found out her father is cheating on her mother!
But then there were some whispers that Leona couldn’t help but hear coming from some of the other people in the restaurant. Things like…
“There they go again. I’m so jealous of that guy, how many did you say he has?”
“Dude I can swear I’ve seen him kissing all the four girls! It’s crazy! One guy and four girls!? Is this some kind of stupid romance story?”
Leona was slowly feeling her anger getting stronger. Four girls? There were four of them!? How many people was this man cheating on!?
“Leona, is something wrong? You’re about to break this table if you press down any harder”
Roland said this with a raised brow and Leona snapped out from her hazed state to look at him. she slowly let go of the table and breathed out slowly to calm herself before she nodded to Roland. She had to learn how to control this anger or she would end up doing something she regrets.
Roland nodded back and they all waited for the food to arrive. A few minutes later, Rina brought their meat to their table and they all dug into the food like starved animals.. There was no talking or even a single exchange between them as they all savored the meal.
