Nero, The Legendary Hunter

Maia's mother was someone who was obsessed with gold. Because of this, almost everything in her room was made of gold.

"Come here. Give your mother a hug and kiss first," said the woman named Malvina.

"Yes, mom." Maia approached and hugged her mother and kissed her cheek.

"Tell me, my child," Malvina asked gently, "why do you have such a worried expression?"

"Mother..." Maia let out a long breath. "I can't hide anything from you, can I?"

"Of course not." Malvina shook her head and smiled. "After all, I am your mother."

"Mom, it looks like my plan has failed. My spy just reported that Choko has just arrived in town alive. Even her three friends managed to get back alive, and more, there was a wolf and a very beautiful white-haired girl walking along with Choko." Maia seemed jealous when speaking about Nero. When she heard her spy's report, she didn't like it at all when she heard how beautiful the girl next to Choko was.

"Did that bastard girl survive?" An angry expression appeared on Malvina's pretty, makeup-filled face.

"Is this your home's entrance, Choko!?" Nero asked shocked when they arrived in front of a large gate with a beautiful garden making up the grounds behind it. One could see that at the back of the property, there was a beautiful white mansion that was absolutely breathtaking.

"Yes." Choko nodded with a welcoming smile. "Come, let's go in."

"En," Nero agreed and entered along with Choko and the rest.

Walking across the grounds, Nero examined the beautiful garden.

Nero asked, "Your family's house is quite large, is it not?"

A strange glow passed through Choko's eyes, but it soon returned to normal. She shook her head as she explained, "I don't stay in the main house. My mother and I stayed in a separate place since my mother is one of my father's concubines..."

"..."

Nero didn't talk about it anymore; she had talked to Choko before and knew a little about her story.

Although it was like that, Nero did not think Choko was a sad girl who had an unhappy life. Although she suffered some setbacks, she was a happy and healthy girl. As long as she had her freedom, she could achieve everything her father had accomplished and even more. Nothing will fall from the sky if one stands around waiting and does nothing. As long as she tried, she could achieve anything, and Choko was very talented and hardworking. If she continued to live as a hunter, albeit a risky choice, it was only a matter of time for her to achieve everything she wanted.

So Nero asked rhetorically, "I see. But you are happy, right?"

"Yes, a lot. I love my mother. Although I don't see my father much, I still like him. At least my mother and I have a better life than my father's other concubines, since my mother had me," Choko said sincerely. It was as Nero imagined: Choko was a brave girl and lived happily.

"I'm glad to hear that." Nero smiled at her. "Even if you and your mother don't live in the main house, that is not the most important thing in someone's life. If you want money and luxury, I believe you can achieve it."

"Yes, you are right." Choko forced herself to not cry, and she gave Nero a tight hug, surprising her. "You are a good friend, Nero."

Although Nero was surprised by Choko's sudden embrace, she hugged Choko in response while patting her on the back.

"I'm fine now, thanks." Choko, who moved away from Nero's embrace, had a beautiful smile when looking at Nero.

Jana had also been moved by Nero; she was more and more satisfied with her. Jair and Breno were the same; they found it difficult to find someone like Nero despite being so young and talented.

Jana coughed slightly. "*Cough* Now that we have 5 people here, how about forming a group and going to explore a beginner's dungeon?"

Everyone looked in Jana's direction when they heard what she said and then looked at Nero.

"I would like to do that," Nero agreed. Jana and Choko had already explained to her about the dungeons, and Nero had already been interested in exploring and leveling up faster. In addition, 5 people were needed to be able to explore a dungeon.

On the east side of the Qin Clan's estate, Nero, Choko, and the others arrived in front of a house. It wasn't as big as the main mansion, but it was still big enough to house 15 people.

Entering the adjacent estate. Nero noticed some servants taking care of the house's garden, or doing other chores such as hanging clothes and sweeping the leaves.

"Young lady, you are back!" The servants smiled warmly when they noticed Choko.

Noticing the presence of more people, mainly from Nero whom they had never seen before, a housekeeper asked carefully, not wanting to be disrespectful, "This beautiful young woman is?..."

Choko quickly replied with a smile, "She is my newest good friend, and her name is Nero."

"Hello, beautiful lady. I hope you will remain good friends with Choko," the housekeeper said with a smile, making Choko blush slightly. The maid continued to speak, "Madame is in the room. Come in, Madame will be happy to know that Miss Choko is back."

When they noticed Luna, many of the maids became afraid. Nero, noticing this, thought it would be best to have Luna go into the domesticated monster slot. "Calm down please; this is my domesticated wolf."

When they saw that the wolf was gone, they were surprised, but not that much, since the taming class had such an ability. However, it was very rare, which made them think that Nero must be very talented and special.

Nero assessed the head maid who wore a white maid dress which reached down to her shin, embroidered in gray. She found the housekeeper pleasant. Nero said to her, "Nice to meet you."

"The pleasure is all mine, young lady Nero," the housekeeper smiled.

Jana, Jair, and Breno also greeted the housekeeper and the maids, then they followed the housekeeper into the house.

When they arrived in the living room. Nero was able to see a beautiful, young-looking woman who appeared to be in her early 20s. But although she looked like that, this woman was actually 36 years old.

Nero was surprised to see her; she had long black hair, pool blue eyes, long legs, and full breasts with fair skin. She was so white, it looked like she never got sun. The woman was wearing a simple white one-piece dress, but even though it was simple, she exuded a great deal of charm and elegance.

The woman stood up elegantly, looking in their direction. When her eyes landed on Nero, she looked at her and smiled, "Ara, ara? What a beautiful lady we have here."

Choko said, "Mom, this is my friend, Nero." Then she looked at Nero and she said, "Nero, this is my mother, Latifa."

"Nice to meet you, Ms. Latifa," Nero smiled at her friendly.

Latifa nodded in satisfaction and said, "My goodness, you are very beautiful; did you know that?"

"Thank you..." Nero felt shy about being praised like that.

"Mom..." Choko was embarrassed to hear it as well, but in response, her mother just smiled.

"Auntie, good to see you again," Jana said with a smile.

"Good girl. Come here and hug your aunt," Latifa said, happy to see Jana.
