Chapter 16: I Took on a Good Mission
I looked at Ruga with a blank face, standing between him and Kuya.
Ruga was a little surprised to see me suddenly appear.
But soon his expression became stern and calm.
He rubbed the wrist I was holding just now, and said with a righteous face: "It turned out to be you...... This really disappoints me! ”
Ha? Disappointed?
Why do you always meet some guys today who don't like to talk to people?
Ruga's waist is straight, and he is looking down at me because of his height......
"Originally, I thought you felt good and qualified to join my team......"
After a pause, he grimaced it.
"I can't believe that you are actually a person who likes to use violence to solve problems!"
“……”
I froze......
Hehe......
It's the first time someone has said that I feel good about others......
But......
X's! Make a rod!
Can't you keep your self-righteous words in your heart?
Why do you have to say it, and it ripped it on me?!
When Luga saw me stunned, he probably thought that I was shocked by his righteousness......
He shook his head and continued, "Well, you find a priest to treat them first, and then wait for them to wake up and apologize, they will definitely forgive you......"
“……”
Without waiting for him to finish, I turned and walked over to Dika......
Dika's face was dull after I arrived at the counter......
"Hey! Milk...... Dika, how are you going to take this adventurer's mission? ”
I'll make up! Aren't you in a daze?
I only said the word "milk" for Mao......
Your hateful eyes glared at me reflexively?!
Seeing that I had changed my words in time, Dika didn't pay much attention to it, but just snorted.
"Just tear the task paper away when you receive the task, and the task board will automatically record the adventurer who received the task. In addition, if the task is not completed in time, you need to compensate for the liquidated damages of the original remuneration. ”
I said yes and walked back to the task board: "Kuya, come and choose the mission." ”
"Hmmm......"
Kuya replied softly......
The entire hall of adventurers was dead dead again......
Except for the footsteps of Kuya and me, there was only the sound of scrambled breathing......
……
For the first time, Ruga's heart swelled with an emotion called hatred.
Never since he became the much-anticipated new star adventurer!
Even those who hated him never treated him like this!
This kind of cold and violent ignorance is even more difficult for him to accept than insults!
And the most important ......
The gloomy and fierce looking fish-eyed boy in front of him was able to team up with Kuya!
Obviously, he invited Kuya so many times before, but she was rejected......
Why could such a violent maniac be accepted by Kuya?!
Ruga gritted his teeth and suddenly grabbed Kuya as he passed by.
He showed an extremely gentle and concerned look: "Kuya, you are so kind...... He must have grabbed you, right? Don't worry, I'll get you out now......"
Before he finished speaking, a gloomy face appeared beside him......
"Bang"
After a muffled sound, the armor on Ruga's stomach dented in......
The sharp pain made him let go of Kuya's grip.
He hunched over and didn't scream......
But the mouth kept making a "hissing" sound......
……
I looked coldly at this guy who wanted to forcibly open the harem......
Slowly withdrew his fist......
At this moment, the two girls behind Ruga raised their staffs in anger......
As soon as I moved, I appeared in front of them......
"Bang Bang"
He held a staff in each of his left and right hands......
"Click"
After the crunch that sounded at the same time......
The staff in the hands of the two girls was only half cut off......
They stared at me blankly and didn't say a word......
Belch?
These two staffs feel good, I knew I would have snatched them and used them for Kuya......
Just kidding, I don't want to be a robber......
I clapped my hands and turned and walked to the taskboard......
……
After a while, Ruga had probably regained his breath......
His voice rang out again......
"Are you just using violence so casually? Do you think you're the strongest? Have you ever thought that the people around you would be implicated by your violence?! ”
My body jerked to a halt......
And Ruga seemed intent on continuing to speak.
"You think ......"
But after saying three words, he didn't say anything more......
Because an eerie aura emanated from me......
In an instant, the entire hall was enveloped......
A heart-wrenching pain welled up in my chest......
A feeling that I was constantly suppressing seemed to have become uncontrollable......
The figure of a young girl......
In my mind......
“……”
Kuya seemed to be frightened by me, and she subconsciously took a step back.
But for some reason, she gritted her silver teeth and took another step forward......
I ignored her strange movements, and walked slowly over to Ruga.
With everyone watching, I grabbed the collar of his cuirass and pulled him in front of me.
Because I forced his knees to bend slightly, it became like I was looking down on him......
"Hey, you guy...... If you dare to say this in front of me......"
Our faces were almost together.
"I'm afraid I can't help it...... I'm going to kill you! ”
As soon as I finished speaking, I seemed to hear countless gasps......
I don't know what my expression was like......
But judging from the fact that no adventurers have been looking for me at random since then......
Well...... That's it......
……
I let go of my grip on Ruga and returned to the quest board where Kuya was.
Kuya's face was a little pale, but she didn't say anything......
Alas......
Trouble is dead......
This kind of oppressive thing......
Someone as kind as me shouldn't be doing the right thing......
Distraught, I tore a task sheet from the task board.
Although the content was a little blurry and hard to read, I tucked it into my pocket......
I glanced at the silent crowd of adventurers, then took Kuya's hand and walked straight out of the impostor's guild......
……
It wasn't until Nightstar and Kuya left the Adventurers' Guild that the entire hall gradually came back to life......
It's just that no one talked about the night star just now......
No one asked about Ruga either......
Dika glanced at Ruga, who was being helped by the two girls towards the gate, and sighed......
Suddenly, her whole body froze in place......
The neck slowly turned somewhere as if mechanically......
Finally, Dika stared blankly at the task board......
I saw a vacant position in the upper left corner of the taskboard......
She swallowed her saliva subconsciously......
Just kidding, right?
It's a joke, right?!
Who tore up that crusade mission that no one dared to take for three years?!
Stunned, Dika remembered the casual and chic movements of Nightstar in front of the task board just now......
“……”
……
Kuya and I were walking on the road......
I was very uncomfortable with the strange atmosphere......
I decided to break the silence first.
"Hey."
"Yes, yes!"
it! The reaction is a bit big, right?! Everyone around me has seen it!
I pretended to cough twice and continued, "What are you going to do next?" Whatever the task, I can probably do it alone......"
"No, no! Please take me with you! ”
I'll go! It was rejected outright!
Seeing my surprised look, Kuya seemed to have just realized her gaffe......
Her face flushed instantly......
"Sorry, sorry...... But、But we've become a combination.,Please let me share a little bit for you......"
I scratched my face and sighed......
Sure enough, it is impossible to complete the task by yourself......
Anyway, is she really not aware of my strength at all?!
But that's pretty good......
"Don't you still have to go to school? And you need to start preparing for the 'Rising Sun Festival', right? ”
"No, it's okay, anyway, I don't know what to do when I go back to Sennick Academy now......"
“……”
"It's better to take some time off...... As for the Rising Sun Festival...... I haven't been able to improve my strength......"
“……”
I can't argue with what she said......
In the past few days of our lives, she has told me almost everything except for some **......
"1" point higher than the average person's magic talent, that is......
She only has a magical talent of "1......
I can't even reach the five scum of the battle......
Kuya didn't know why she lowered her head......
No way! What is dripping on the ground?!
Your heart is so sensitive! Should I say it's a woman's sixth sense?!
Or do I want to be able to see everything on my face?!
Feed! Those passers-by all cast disgusted glances at me!
Seeing that the situation was developing in a bad direction, I hurriedly whispered in Kuya's ear: "Don't cry, I'll take you with me, right?" ”
As the words fell, I directly took her hand and escaped from the encirclement of gossip passers-by that gradually formed......
……
After walking a few streets, we stopped......
Sighing, I wanted to let go of Kuya's hand......
Huh?
Kuya? Can you let go too?
I looked at Kuya......
"! Your face is too red, isn't it? What's uncomfortable?! ”
Perhaps frightened by me, Kuya withdrew her hand with lightning speed......
She smiled a little bitterly, "I—I'm fine...... So, that, what mission did you just take......"
Task?
When Kuya asked this, I remembered the task paper in my pocket.
"Here."
I pulled it out and showed it in front of the two of them.
We tacitly looked at the reward at first sight......
““……””
Although the handwriting is already a bit blurred......
"100,000 gold coins ?!!!!" ”
We exclaimed at the same time, once again attracting the attention of the crowd around us......
Kuya subconsciously covered her mouth and looked at me in shock.
No way! What task amount can reach this amount?
"Huh? Need to complete it within a month from the moment you take on the task? The target is deep in the forests of the northern part of the Kingdom of the Rising Sun......"
As I continued to look down......
The whole person froze in place......
And then......
"I'm XXX!"
