Chapter 2 This relationship is complicated
"Done?" Kylo muttered, "three nights of tossing for a cat!"
When Lore heard this, he immediately became angry: "You are embarrassed to say! If you hadn't made any efforts, we would have caught it a long time ago!"
Nolans immediately expressed his heartfelt actions in the face of Kylo's merciless accusation: "That's it! Three nights of action! You actually escaped twice! Without you, how can the mission not fail?"
Lore looked at Nolans suspiciously: "Why do I think you are saying that I am useless as a captain?"
Nolans shook his head with a wave of his hand and a shake of his head.
Leah couldn't help laughing, and Lore immediately glared at her: "Are you embarrassed to laugh?
Leah immediately closed her voice and bowed her head: "I was wrong!"
Lore snorted: "Forget it this time, you won't go to the task in the future!"
"Really? That's great!"
Leah's face was pleasantly surprised, thinking about the fierce and vicious task administrator teacher in the mission hall of the academy, Leah felt terrified, this doesn't have to go there, isn't it great!
Lore raised an eyebrow: "You're happy?"
Leah immediately retracted her expression again: "I was wrong. ”
Lore: "...... Your attitude of admitting mistakes is very similar to what Nolans learned!"
Nolans: "?"
Kylo suddenly said on the side: "Actually, Nolans is right, I would have done it earlier if I had known, and I would have saved three days of tossing!
Lore is full of black lines, but there is no refutation, in fact, the difficulty level of their task is not high, but it is a little laborious, so except for Lore's adventure team, no one else is willing to take it.
And after Lore received the task of "Cat Discovery", at first, because the Flowstripe Lightning Cat had not left the academy too far, it was easy to find its clues, but when it was first blocked, because several people were too careless, they treated it as an ordinary pet, and as a result, they were very teased, but it escaped from the central city.
How can Lore's character tolerate such a stain, and I don't know where she used the "informant", and got the news of its activities near Dongcheng District, Lore confidently started the second plan of action, this time she was really prepared, but the unfamiliarity with the terrain in Dongcheng District, as well as the disjointed cooperation between several teammates, the second operation was declared a failure again.
Tonight is the third operation, and the result is also a frequent situation, if it weren't for Kylo's unexpected arrangement of a magic array in advance, several people would have to work in vain again.
However, although Kylo did contribute to the completion of this mission, seeing Kylo's unbeaten expression, Lore became angry: "Kylo! Pay attention to your attitude! Although you have made meritorious contributions this time, the first two times you neglected your duties and became a deserter are still unforgivable! But there are a lot of captains, so I won't care about it this time! The next time I do it again, cough cough! I won't be polite! Remember?"
Kylo replied perfunctorily, "Okay! I remember! Oh, that's right! Didn't you just say that I could get two copies of the reward for this mission?"
Lore's expression froze, and then she remembered that she seemed to have said such a thing, but it was just a casual remark, could it be that she really shared more with him? Thinking about Kylo's angry tone, Lore really felt unwilling.
Lore didn't really care about those few gold coins, she was just a little angry with Kylo's attitude, and Lore was a little hesitant when she thought about it.
Kylo shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Hey, I said Lore, you don't plan to go back, do you? You must know that since I joined your team, it has sacrificed a lot of time, and there is no merit and hard work, right? Moreover, I am an orphan, during this time, the previous savings have almost been used, and if I don't find a way to earn some money, I will starve to death!"
Listening to the first half of Kailo's words, Lore really wanted to reason with him again, but hearing him say that he was an orphan, Lore relented again.
The conditions of his family are better than the other, although he has been in a state of cold war with his family recently, at least he doesn't have to worry about money, and even took a large amount of alchemy materials from home a few days ago, and asked Master Guyide alchemy to upgrade his ring. And Nolans's situation is not clear, but it should be good.
Thinking about it this way, Lore couldn't help but feel a little sorry for this guy, and even blamed himself for not caring about Kylo before, because he used to always go to Kylo's every once in a while to eat and drink.
Lore turned his face a little blushing, "Well, you'll take one more this time, as long as they're okay." ”
Aiqi and the others glanced at each other, naturally they didn't have any opinions, but they still had a little self-blame in their hearts.
Leah's performance was the most exaggerated, her eyebrows lowered, and her expression was about to cry: "Kylo!
The corners of Kylo's eyes twitched, "I don't need to, right? ”
Leah's expression changed, and she said sharply, "You can't refuse!"
Kylo: "......"
Aitch smiled bitterly, "Kylo, you just accept it, this is Leah's way of showing love!"
Kylo glanced at Leah, who suddenly changed her face, with palpitations: "I know, but why do I think her eyes just now seem to be looking at a stray cat on the side of the road?"
Aitch said embarrassedly: "Haha, it must be your delusion! Oh, by the way, what did you rely on before you came to our academy?
Aitch asked cautiously, for fear of hurting Kylo's pride.
Kylo didn't care about this, he shook his head: "When there is no one to adopt, the children in the orphanage can only stay until they are thirteen years old at most, and then the orphanage will provide some basic funding and introductions to fend for themselves. I was lucky, because of my talent, I was taught some magic by a retired teacher of the academy, and before entering the academy, I learned to hunt monsters in some monster forests for money. ”
Kylo said it easily, but the others didn't listen to it, no wonder Kylo knew so much about adventure, this was not learned from books, but a complete experience.
Nolans asked a little strangely, "You have such a talent and so good looks, how can no one adopt you?"
Kylo glanced at Nolans expressionlessly, hesitated for a moment before saying, "Sometimes, good looks are the greatest sin. ”
Nolans frowned, "What do you mean?"
Kylo shook his head, but didn't intend to explain it anymore, as it would touch a bad memory in his heart.
Although Lore was also curious, but this time she controlled her curiosity well, she stopped Nolans, who was still about to ask, and changed the subject and asked, "By the way, Kylo, adventurers outside the academy will not register until they are adults, and you lied about your age?"
Kylo said: "Thirteen-year-old boys, no matter how much they disguise, they will show flaws! How many children in the orphanage can be overnourished to the age of thirteen like eighteen-year-olds?"
Lore frowned: "Then how are you?"
Kylo said lightly: "It's very simple, you can hunt monsters and sell them for money without registering adventurers!"
"But in that case, the Adventurer's Guild will charge a high fee, right?"
Kylo said: "It doesn't have to be sold to the Adventurer's Guild, just resell it to the same adventurer, so that you can get more money." ”
Lore pondered: "I see. ”
The three of them also looked aware.
However, what is actually so simple? What Kailo said is only part of it, selling the prey to other adventurers, of course, it is possible, but not all adventurers will have sympathy for those underage children, killing and plundering, if the opponent is a child, it will save a lot of effort.
And Kylo has seen too much of these.
Kylo put away the mess, yawned, and said quietly, "Okay, let's go, I'm sleepy!
After three consecutive nights of tossing, Lore also felt a little tired, and with a better understanding of Kylo's "life experience", her mood was not too good: "Let's go, let's go!
With that, Lore took Leah, who was still sighing, and walked forward, followed by Kylo.
Nolans was about to follow, but was pulled by Edge's sleeve.
Nolans wondered, "What's wrong?"
Aitch pointed at the three of Lore, shook his head again, and motioned for the first few people to take a few more steps.
Nolans was a little strange, but he still cooperated with Aitch to walk behind.
After a few minutes, Aitch hesitated and said, "Nolans, have you noticed that the three of them have changed quite a lot recently?"
Nolans was stunned, looked at Aitch inexplicably, and said, "I feel it too." ”
"Right?"
"Well, first of all, Kylo, who used to be like this, but lately I feel like he's more casual with us, unlike the one who always felt cold before. ”
"Then there's Leah, who's not as shy and timid as she used to be. ”
"As for the captain?" said Nolans, pausing deliberately, then smirking, "what do you think, Edge?"
"This ......," Aitch hesitated to answer.
Nolans patted Aitch on the shoulder: "Brother, I know what you want to say. Even if it wasn't for the last Anansias incident, you can probably see that the captain of her seems to have something unusual to Kylo. Every time Ellie comes to Kylo, she unconsciously gets nervous. ”
Aitch sighed, his eyes a little dark, which he didn't want to see.
Nolans suddenly said, "Edge, you actually like the captain too, right?"
Aitch was startled: "You, what did you say?!"
Nolans patted Edge's shoulder again, and said in a senior attitude: "You don't have to deny it, as a person who has come over, I have seen too much." Look at the captain's eyes, I know best!"
“...... Is it? Is it really that obvious?"
Aitch was a little disappointed, he and Lore were childhood sweethearts, but Lore never noticed his intentions, he thought that Lore didn't understand this, it didn't matter, he could wait, but, suddenly one day, he found Lore looking at Kylo with the kind of eyes he looked at her.
Aitch felt very uncomfortable, but he could only try to restrain his feelings, but how could feelings be easily controlled, and a look in his eyes was exposed.
Nolans was also a little serious, and patted Aitch's shoulder for the third time: "Aitch, I don't know if Kylo can see the captain's thoughts, his feelings are too hidden for me to see through." So, if you want to ask, I can't answer you, you three's questions have to be solved by yourself, and I can't help you. ”
Aitch sighed, "I know. Don't worry, I'm measured. ”
Nolans said, "Alright, let's go! In four hours it will be time to get up again and go back to bed!"
