Abraxas sat up on the high stool next to her. Her neko ears could pick upon the slight of sound and make it easier to differentiate who was speaking than a normal human could. It was not as sharp as a dragon slayer's, but it was still a lot better. The bartender noticed her and her pet. He calmly made its way down. "What can I get you tonight" he asked, in a serene manner. Lee held a finger for one drink. "One drink of your hardest alcohols" she replied. LeeAnn was immune to drinking alcohols in terms of getting a buzz due to her illness. She was not sure was it was still, but since her father told her the story of the Fire Gurdian within her family. It had made it more clear of what she really had and was it permanet. It appeared to be so, but she has lived with it long enough.
The neko had a weird appearance of having half of her face with a gray-purple color. Her right eye was that of a ghouls, black with a red ring, and the other eye covered with an eye patch. She was a sight to look at for sure. Not many people knew what to say to her when they first met her, but personally she did not care at all. The bartender did not say anything as he handed her the drink. Lee took it without hesitation and sipped it like it was high quality tea.
Over to her left, was a group of three men who looked buzzed. They looked to be around their twenties to thirties form what she could tell. "Ya heard, Rune Knights are coming to be stationed here. More than ever, I swear they are nothing but trouble" said one. LeeAnn was only a ear shot away. One of the other buzzed men spoke up to reply, raising his mug half full of expensive beer. "Aye, agreed. They are the council's lap dogs. When something goes wrong, they send them to fix it. Council is nothing but a pain in the ass. Rune Knights are better off dead if you ask me" said the other. LeeAnn hated when they talked about Rune Knights. Not all of them were like that. She was a prime example. The council never seemed to really take a liking to the redhead, but since the ties with her parents and Hikaru, she was allowed special and not so special treatment. Either way, she had to work twice as hard with them knowing of her illness. Luckily, her father had some close friends to help her out.
Lee was never one to be the council's personal guard dogs. Did they ever undergo training? Or know what its like to save someone's life? Perhaps not, but Lee did those things. She did things on her own time and ways that most would not do. Technically, the opposite of what is expect of a Knight by council standards. She was more or less a favorite among some of the higher ups since she was reliable, got things done, and cared more about her job. Recent times had called for her to work on herself, she needed to improve her and her skills if she wanted to get to the next level even at being a leader. "They just dont understand how we work, do they girl?" she said, scratching her Umbreon behind the ears. Abraxas loved it when she did that. Her eyes closed as she gave a pleased expression. "As dad would say, to each their own" she smiled.
