My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death

-----

Frank and Harumi moved out of the restaurant after having eaten their fill, the two young adults had enjoyed the meal thoroughly, and had been left more than happy.

The meal was freshly made in the kitchen, not some unfrozen garbage from fast food restaurants, and it was really good. Frank felt like he had not eaten such a good bowl of rice in a while.

The food that Gwendolyn and his mother made were comparable to it, yeah, but they were just a bit above this bowl of rice, which was so masterfully made it really felt like he had eaten something cooked by someone with the [Cooking] Skill at Level 10!

Frank was happy to have eaten the food now and felt a bit embarrassed that he had barely spoken through the entire lunch.

"That was really good! I can't believe Gustavo would cook us food one of these days, the world is really filled with surprises at every corner, huh? Even this world alone is filled with many new things I had never seen before…" said Frank.

"Yeah, it was tasty, been a few months since I've come here to eat with Uncle Gustavo… Dan might be a bit annoying sometimes, but he does his work pretty well too, right?" asked Harumi.

"I suppose you're right, he does indeed do his work pretty well too." Said Frank.

"See? Vampires are not bad, they're just a bit misunderstood sometimes… Uncle Gustavo just wants to live a life of peace… After all the things he had gone through… It is only natural… Have you ever imagined living so long… knowing you're the only last of your family?" sighed Harumi.

"Harumi… It must… had been hard, yeah…" sighed Frank.

"He went through so much on his life… Yet he's still here with us… He had seen history change in front of his eyes… Things change over and over again, he fought even against the ancient gods of Japan back then… and helped mother as much as he could… He might look like an old man that is about to fall apart… But isn't Uncle Gustavo pretty cool?" asked Harumi with a radiant smile.

Frank smiled back at her, she really admired her Uncle… Frank realized that Harumi might had been raised by him alongside Clementine, as he was a close servant of Clementine, he might had even become something of a parental figure for the little Harumi…

The same way he once was for Clementine herself, well, she already had a father, but maybe like a second father, or an uncle… After all, Clementine's father was a powerful Progenitor Vampire from Europe, he had been living for god knows how long, he was very busy even after having a daughter, so leaving some time of parental guidance to Gustavo ended making him like her uncle or grandpa figure…

And now, he was something similar for Harumi, whose family died, and she was adopted since she was a little toddler. The daughter between a human woman and a savage Vampire…

Her mother probably would had wanted her to live a life of happiness, and in those last moments when she was found by Clementine, it must had been Harumi's mother soul that guided her.

After all, Clementine herself had once told her that there was something, a whisper, that called her to the underground of the place that her Vampires raided back then.

Frank realized just how incredible Harumi's life had been, understanding her past and now she had come so far really made him somehow feel "proud" of her, despite not having participated in her growth… it felt like he was seeing someone very dear to him develop slowly, step by step.

Perhaps it wasn't the same feeling as with his son, but it was something similar to seeing his beloved wives develop, even though his relationship with her had yet to advance that further yet.

"Yeah, your uncle is a very amazing man… I am glad you grew up with him." I said.

"F-Frank…" Harumi said, as she blushed a bit. Having her uncle praised rather than herself made her happier than she could had imagined.

"Harumi, you've lived a pretty interesting life yourself, haven't you? You're pretty amazing too." Said Frank with a gentle smile.

"You're being too nice again…" sighed Harumi while blushing and averting his gaze from him.

Frank couldn't help but giggle a bit, she was really cute.

"Now! Where shall we go now? It is getting a bit late… So, do you want to go to the park? We could pick up some ice cream in there. I know a place where they make some pretty good ice cream, not the artificial factory-made one." Said Frank, he knew Harumi disliked these products manufactured with chemicals and other things, treating them like garbage.

It wasn't as if she was hating these things because she was a naturist or something, she simply had a very refined palate and liked to eat things that were tastier than just that stuff… that only left her a bad flavor in her mouth.

Harumi smiled and nodded, as one of her eyes was hiding beneath her red hair rather cutely.

"Sure, let's go." She said.

Suddenly, Harumi held Frank's hand as Frank almost skipped a beat, he was frozen in there.

"Hm? Come on, it is getting late for an ice cream, but I am down for one." She said.

"Ah… Yeah, right." Said Frank, as he pretended to be "casual" over Harumi's move, and the two walked while holding hands to the park, as if they were lovers already…

It was the weekend, so the park was filled with people everywhere, there was a small festivity going on as the end of the year was slowly approaching, there were several street food carts selling Takoyaki and other things.

Frank immediately thought about bringing his family here tomorrow, he was sure they would enjoy the place.

"Ah, my family would love this place." He sighed.
