Chapter 62: A yandere wife understands! (1/2)
After sending Kyoya and Xaya out from the adventurer guilds, the lady disappeared from everyone's sight. No one knew when did she come here and similarly, no one could comprehend how did she disappear just like that.
It all happened in mere seconds yet those who took a peek at her body or face already had their cheeks ignited by the lust and passion. It was the same for males and ladies as they stood in a daze…
Only Xaya's despairing shout, that was already echoing on the outskirts, could awaken them.
At the same time, the perpetrator of the show had come back to the highest floor of the adventurer guild. Only famous people such as nobles, strong party leaders, or influential craft masters could freely stomp here and knock the doors leading to the leader's room.
”So have you satisfied your boredom?”
However, the lady didn't even enter the room in a normal way. She appeared out of nowhere mid-air, then her body heavily fell off onto a couch. Her legs instantly crossed as she took the poised bearing.
”Yes, I believe the fate had pulled yet another string for me~~”
She mused while taking a sip of the already cold tea. When the leader saw that, his eyes narrowed as he tried to probe more.
What could possibly satisfy this woman, who had reached one of the highest floors with the firm belief in her god, on the first floor filled with rookies and adventurers below the fiftieth floor?
”You could've just allowed me to send some guards. Those on the first floor aren't even worthy to see the tiniest part of your body.”
”Uhum~~ Uhum~~”
”Just one glance of your eyes is enough to petrify the men!”
”Uhum~~ Uhum~~”
”Yours…”
The leader continued to spit out some praises that at some point seemed to drift away from the reality way too much. The cold tea was no longer here, replaced by the hot one as the lady made another one for herself.
Just how long is the leader planning to praise the lady?
”Okay, Marcia… What the fuck happened?”
”There was a rookie who had ability awakened by Lord Ejolle's tablet.”
”Oh! In my guild?”
The leader and Marcia were close friends, so both of them knew each other well. She just spoke a little about Kyoya, not even willing to reveal more. There were a few ways for the leader to check up on Kyoya and learn about him.
He could even pull him for special training! Such treatment was something to be jealous of, but Kyoya surely wouldn't take it. The leader didn't really get a chance to pass an offer though.
”I will keep an eye on him, however.”
”Sure.”
The leader of the Grooma Kingdom's adventurer guild was called Untak. Though the belief is the most important power in the world, the adventurers and other forces weren't obligated to follow the divine oracles as much as direct disciples. As rare as it is, the divine oracles can be refused without any punishment.
Why would god get rid of the believer whose faith fuels up his divinity?
However, many adventurers are scared to even refuse and often prove to mindlessly follow the instructions and orders of their god. This in itself isn't bad because once survived, the rewards are abundant.
So Untak was fine with Marcia marking up Kyoya in his guild. They were friends, and for many years, Marcia's team was chilling here. The lady even treated it as her home! This had given birth to a lot of pestering from Untak's side though.
Even now!
”The more pieces in our adventurer guild, the better. But there is no guarantee he would protect the guild in case nobles moved against us. So help me for now with-”
The adventurer guild has its forces as well. The parties can take missions from everyone, but the direct forces of the guild are one hundred percent loyal to the guild. In case noble's greed turns too excessive, the leader's forces would gather as much as possible adventurer parties with them at the helm.
”Do you have to worry about nobles though?”
The nobles have their internal struggles! Marcia added, then took the sip of tea. When she enjoys the tea, nothing can disturb her as it indicates her good mood. Marcia's irritating sipping sounds were forgiven thanks to her poised and gorgeous looks.
”I heard that the adventurer guild in the Aria Kingdom had been stamping their rookies covertly. Then, they reached out for them intending to kill the adventurers from other guilds. It is a rumor though.”
”I also have heard about it. Ultimately, there is no way for the neutral, third-party to exist in the world where the strength rules.”
”That's why I love to be party leader. Freedom is what I seek! Bye, bye, Untak~~”
Boom!
As Marcia disappeared, the pitiful cup of tea lost its master. It fell straight onto the floor, crashing into thousand pieces. The veins popped off on Untak's temple as he heard that sound.
The freedom… It is nice indeed!
It's far better to enjoy the beauty and mystery of the world free of any worries! However, no one, except the ones chosen by the gods, can enjoy such freedom. Eventually, some duties are bound to fall if not strong enough!
”Mr. Untak, let me clear the floor.”
”She says she can not drink from low-quality cups. Where is freedom in that?”
”Umm… I don't know.”
A poor maid couldn't satisfy her master's wish as she wiped off the floor from sharp pieces. Both Untak and Marcia had different perception of freedom!
