Chapter 606 A Humble Woman
Maybe it was because she was reminded, seeing the staff that suddenly fell towards her head, Mrs. Macaroon instinctively raised her arm and made a very standardized cross-parry action! The orb of the staff of light's head slammed into the woman's arm, sending a slight red strand into her skin.
After a staff, Margaux nodded slightly, withdrew her hand, and said, "It's really strong. But it's not surprising, you can carry so much equipment like a hill on your back, and of course the strength of a weak woman like me is not a problem. β
The corners of Mrs. Macaroon's mouth showed a little panic, she rubbed her arm slightly, waved her hand again and again, and said, "No...... No......! That one...... I don't have the ability to ...... at all."
"What's your name?" Suddenly, Arrow asked, "I'm not talking about your last name, I'm talking about your first name." β
After a moment's hesitation, the woman said, "I'...... My name is Suta...... Crispy macaroons ......"
"Very well, Ms. Suta. You don't think you're a paladin? But I think you have what it takes to be a good paladin. β
Arrow nodded lightly at the crispy tower and continuedβ
"It's already strange to me that if you eat food with sleep spores, your husband will be safe and sound, because he's a paladin with great magic resistance. But why can you be equally safe? β
Suta's hands kept interlacing their fingers and rubbing against each other: "That...... That's because...... Because ......"
Arrow, holding half of his face, continued, "And you're still able to carry that heavy luggage. Normally, even if you are a person who does housework a lot, you can carry your luggage, but I have personally experienced that tower shield, and it is not something that ordinary women can casually lift. However, you carried that shield on your back for almost ten days, from Knife Scar Canyon all the way to our guild. β
Suta's mood seemed a little nervous, he lowered his head, and looked very flustered: "I...... I do not know...... I ......"
Arrow: "And the time you two escaped. At the time, Mr. Bass was tied to the basement by us, and you were the only one who could move his hands. Of course, at that time, we thought it was simple, after all, you don't have any combat power, so as long as you don't let go of your husband, we can do whatever you want in our guild. In such a situation, one of the men sneaked into Cream's room that night and gave our guild assassin a shot of 'piety', who do you think made this 'piety'? Is it your husband who is tied up and can't move? Or is it someone else? β
At this point, Sutta finally stopped talking at all, just obediently lowered her head, and her hands tugged at the hem of her skirt tightly.
But Iero wasn't finished yet, "Although you have always shown that you are not very good at fighting, and I believe that you yourself really believe that you have no talent for fighting. But, if I'm not mistaken, that's what you told me. You say that at a very young age, you were trained by your father-in-law's paladin with your husband. Of course, your father-in-law doesn't mean to train you, and you have to participate in training just so that you can help watch over your husband. Moreover, during the training of the paladin, it is also possible for your husband to have a sparring partner. β
"I don't know how paladins are supposed to train, but in general there should be things like fighting each other, taking attacks, and using each other's skills to try their strength, right? So, if you can be your husband's sparring partner, then I have no reason not to believe that you also have the power of a paladin. β
Coco on the side poked his head out, opened his eyes wide, and carefully looked up and down the crisp tart, and then frowned and said, "Brother President, are you serious?" She? Paladin? Can she really do it? β
Margaux gently tapped the little girl's head with the staff in her hand and said, "You talk a lot, don't talk so much nonsense." β
Arrow, Coco, and Margaux were all watching the lady, and Crispa herself seemed to be in disbelief at what she was hearing.
After a moment of hesitation, a little confusion and embarrassment appeared on Suta's face, and he said, "That...... President Arrow...... I really don't know what you're talking about...... I really...... It's really impossible to be a paladin...... If you want me to help take care of the guild, I don't have a problem...... I can clean, I can cook, and I can wash dishes! It's just that...... Paladin ...... This kind of thing...... If my husband knew about it...... He's going to be angry......"
"Angry? What are you angry about? A slight mockery appeared on the corner of Arrow's mouth, "Could it be that he is angry that you are more powerful than him?" β
"No, no, no! How can it be...... How is this possible? How could I possibly compare to my husband? My father-in-law said that my husband is a genius! If he is willing to join the Holy See of Light, he will soon be able to rise to the rank of Templar! So...... So...... I'm just his wife...... And a dumb woman like me...... How can it be compared to my husband? As long as I can stay with my husband for the rest of my life...... Take care of him for the rest of your life...... I'm satisfied......"
Very good.
Very good!
Arrow was now pretty sure that the woman was completely unlistening to the others by now.
What else is there to say about this kind of character who thinks he will lose without doing anything?
At that moment, Arrow waved his hand and said, "I see, it seems that you really don't have any talent for paladins." β
Sutta immediately breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with a smile.
Arrow: "Since you don't have any talent, and your husband is now completely half-dead, then I don't have anything to say. There is no way that the mermaid song can continue to raise you two idlers, so I'll give you a morning to clean up, and I'll leave my guild in the afternoon. β
The sudden eviction order made the crisp tart, who had just had a smile on his face, stiffen all of a sudden!
I don't know what the look is in the eyes under the bangs now, but judging from the exposed mouth, she should have fallen into a huge panic.
Seeing that Arrow had gotten up, the woman hurriedly grabbed the contract on the table, got up from her seat with a roll, and immediately knelt in front of Arrow.
"Arrow...... President Arrow! You...... Please...... Please! My husband is now ...... Now completely unconscious...... I'm a weak woman...... I can't help it if you chase me away...... I don't even have an iron coin on me! I...... I...... Please...... Please......! β
Arrow shook off his hand, turned the direction a little, didn't let the woman bow to him, and said slowly, "What does this have to do with me?" And your husband is in a coma because he is holding the members of our guild hostage. Essentially, Merfolk Song doesn't owe you and you a lot of anything. So, why should I continue to take you in? β
Margaux and Coco on the side watched all this, even though they both knew that their president was probably lying and indulging in lust now. But seeing Arrow's current appearance like frost, and then looking at the crisp tower over there who is now obviously panicked, both are women, and these two people are also a little unbearable now.
"President Arrow! I...... I'll work hard! I'll work hard in the guild! I...... I can eat just one meal a day! I try not to shower, not brush my teeth, and use less water! I can sleep only four hours a day...... Then spend all the rest of the time cleaning up your guild! So I beg you...... I beg you ......! Before my husband woke up...... Please, don't drive us away! I beg you! β
Before, Arrow still felt that this woman was a bit submissive.
But now seeing that she did not hesitate to kowtow to herself in order for her husband to have a place to live, she felt that this woman's IQ might still be a little insufficient.
How can a person be so humble?
No...... It should be said that what kind of environment is it that makes this woman develop such a humble character?
Knock ββ!
Seeing that Arrow didn't speak, Suta's head slammed into the floor.
She kept praying, and kept kowtowing to the empty couch, hoping that her insignificant humility could be exchanged for a little mercy and charity.
But in the face of such a desire, Arrow's attitude is still so resolute-
"Or, you join the Merfolk Song as a paladin. Or, you leave the guild with your husband. I don't have a second way for you to take here. β
Again, Suta's forehead slammed to the floor.
After hearing such a resolute order from Arrow, her movements finally stopped, and she slowly straightened her upper body and looked at the contract in her hand.
On top of this contract, there is an empty column behind the title of Paladin, waiting for someone to write his name.
She wiped her tear-stained face a little, but finally got up, returned to the table, and picked up the pen next to her.
But before the tip of the pen fell, her fingers finally began to tremble.
"What if...... If my husband knows that I am a paladin...... He's going to be angry......"
The woman looked up and looked at Arrow again with a pleading gazeβ
"So...... When my husband woke up...... Can I stop being a paladin? Please...... President Arrow......"
Arrow snorted softly and said, "I really don't understand why you're so afraid of your husband?" Does he usually hit you when he's fine? β
