Hunter's family

[StDH]

Thomas's words only awakened a true demon. Shadow smiled and silenced his laugh from inside him. Yet he kept completely calm.

"Soooo, this was far from violence Thomas. We're Warriors because you can't have peace without everyone having the same training equally and knowing what will happen when you break the law. People carry guns and have military training, yet almost no crimes are done. Those cute maids you see everywhere around have been through worse than Sebastian right now, and from younger age, like my sister. I was personally trained by my father's best soldiers since i was a child, to point where i could not move anymore sometimes. It was harsh, but they took great effort to let me heal properly without leaving any scars and i felt they really care about me. Your affection towards Sebastian is less than Sebastian's affection for his Brother with whom he was raised. And Maltese were raised alone, only relying on their own. The weight of friendship and family means much more here, than anywhere else."

Ever since Shadow was a child, he wanted to raise to his father's expectations. While his father Moonwalker never told him directly to reach a certain level, Shadow knew he has to surpass them in every way imaginable. Therefore he trained day and night, rain or snow, cold or hot, ever since his childhood. And nowadays, honored to be a Maltese Guard.

With those words, Shadow kept leaning on the wall and called maid to wake Sebastian up, awaiting any kind of hostilities from those two. He wouldn't let them do anything to the maid, nor maid would let them attack Shadow, even after what she saw before. But, he never wanted them to feel threatened.
