I Become Baby Mafia Boss

Joan also knew that it was hard for someone as short as Ainsley to touch her wings, so she deliberately folded them and made them drop to the ground as much as possible.

The wings seemed to have a mind of their own, but they were really obedient in front of Joan.

The large wings that were even were tall enough to exceed Joan's head by a few centimeters calmly laid on the ground, waiting for Ainsley to touch them.

Ainsley was still on tip-toe and tried to touch the upper bone wings that looked super sturdy in just one glance.

Of course, she didn't touch the protruding bone claw at the edge of the wing, afraid that the bone claw would be too sharp for her 'fragile' skin.

When Ainsley's little fingers first touched the white wing bones, the baby could feel the sturdiness of the bones and the kind of power emitting from them.

The bones were like roots, spreading evenly to protect and hold up the wings themselves.

After Ainsley traced the wing bones, the baby let her feet touch the ground once more before excitedly circling Joan, walking to the wings on the woman's back.

This time, Ainsley touched the outer surface of the wings that were covered in crimson dragon-like scales.

The sensation at the tip of her fingers was cold, as cold as metal, with a slight smell of blood.

However, Ainsley didn't dare to stroke the scales for too long because from this distance alone...she could feel the sharpness of these scales.

Each of the scales could easily kill people!

Ainsley didn't want the scales to graze her fingertips accidentally, so she only traced the scales for a few seconds before she looked at the wings' inner surface.

The inner surface of the wings, the one closer to Joan's back, was a thin membrane that wasn't covered with scales.

However, the membrane itself was elastic and strong, like the skin of an Elite beast or something.

The membrane also had many functions, such as adjusting the owner's temperature, accelerating the speed of flying, and so on.

The thin membrane was also crimson, as red as the scales on the other side of the wings.

One could even see the faint blue veins on the membrane, looking eerie yet beautiful simultaneously.

After touching the wings to her heart's content, Ainsley reluctantly let go of Joan's wings and finally looked up at Joan with eyes full of questions.

"That, great-grandma. Can you shoot out scales or something in a fight? I usually see celestials or winged ability users using their own feathers as weapons..."

These feathers were made of different materials, so the things that became the attacking tools were also different.

Of course, in general, the feathers became 'arrows' when attacking the enemies.

When Joan heard Ainsley's question, she didn't know whether to laugh or not.

She knew about the celestials and other winged ability users using their feathers as weapons.

However, to be honest,  their blood clan members looked down on this method.

"We don't throw our scales at the enemies because it's the same as plucking the thread on your clothes to attack people..."

Wings were a part of the people's body in a sense, so throwing the feathers to attack people might look like someone using their body hair or their literal hair on the head as a weapon.

But this example was too disgusting, so Joan didn't tell Ainsley and only said something about the threads on the clothes.

"Anyway, I know these people can grow out new feathers faster than ever, but if the growth can't keep up with their attacking speed, won't their wings be bald?"

Joan giggled when she mentioned the last thing, and even the other spirits, plus the two blood clan elders, also laughed along with Joan.

Only Zenith, who was eavesdropping through Jake, almost dropped his disguise and used Jake's body to attack all the people on the spot.

What did you say?! Isn't this the same as mocking their celestial race for being a bald bird?

Using feathers as weapons is something normal! Even the humans with wings also did it!

Only these blood clan members who aren't meant to have wings in the first place don't know how to use their advantage.

Hateful!

"We don't throw our scales around, but we can manipulate the scales on our wings to control the airflow when we are flying."

Joan lowered her wings and showed Ainsley the example.

One of the scales nearest to Ainsley's eyes quietly stood up. Although it was faint, Ainsley could feel the change in the airflow around the scales.

"The celestials and winged ability users can use their feathers this way too, but usually it's the feathers on their outer wings."

After all, the feathers on the inner wings were used as a weapon.

"These scales are already hard, to begin with, so we can use the scales to deflect various attacks, act as our shield or even as our sword."

Of course, the blood clan's wings didn't have as many attributes as the celestials and winged ability users' wings because like what Zenith said....

The blood clan wasn't meant to have wings in the first place.

Even if they mimicked the blood-sucking bats, they weren't the overlord of the sky.

They were the lord of the night.

"These scales can also reflect different light, and when it's dark, it can hide itself perfectly, emitting as little light as possible."

The crimson scales would also slowly turn dim, changing color from crimson to pitch black.

This is a necessary skill for the blood clan to fly in the night sky without anyone noticing!
