Chapter 174: Ayrin’s letters (2/2)
“Ayrin actually wrote a letter just for you, captain Sophia. Who would have thought? I haven’t seen you and Ayrin that close either… When did you poach him from Charlotte?” the Agate Lake girls said, looking at her with praise.
“What are you girls spouting now!”
“Then open that letter and show it to us. We’ll believe you then.”
“That…” Sophia’s cheeks were a little hot for no discernible reason. Though she was convinced there was nothing between Ayrin and her, she didn’t know what Ayrin would write on the letter.
“Just in case Ayrin really…”
Adolescent girls were given to flights of fancy. Before she could come back to earth, a girl already snatched away the letter from her hand while she was distracted.
“Haha, well done. Hurry up and open it, let’s read it together.”
With a sudden fit of proud, wild laughter, the girls restrained Sophia.
“This…” That girl swiftly tore open the letter, but after sweeping through it, she was a little stunned.
“It couldn’t be. Ayrin wouldn’t directly express his feelings inside and ask the captain to be his girlfriend, would he?” the girls suddenly shrieked in disbelief.
“It’s not that.”
The girl who’d torn open the letter shook her head. “He explained the details about two arcane skills inside.”
“Describe two arcane skills? What does that mean?” The girls released Sophia and rushed to see.
“It’s the skills from those two substitutes on Golden Stag Academy… How does he know?” they exclaimed in soft disbelief.
…
“Breith Magazine, Ayrin sent you a letter.”
Almost at the same time, a messenger had also hurried his way to Breith Trading Company’s doorway.
“Ayrin wrote us a letter?”
A manager inside suddenly blinked in surprise.
“He wouldn’t have written a letter just to criticize us, would he?” he couldn’t help but think while opening the letter.
“Good news!
“Another explosive scoop!
“Hurry up! Tomorrow morning, I want this on the front page!” this manager immediately shouted in glee as soon as he read it.
…
“An incoming letter from the Office’s infirmary’s sickroom. Ayrin’s and Rinsyi’s indirect dialogue!”
“The showdown between the love rivals escalates once more.”
“Ayrin reminds Rinsyi of their agreement!”
“In the match against Agate Lake Academy, does Golden Stag still dare to continue with an all-substitute lineup?”
Early morning the next day, when many people bought the newest issue of Breith Magazine as they were used to, they immediately saw such an eye-grabbing headline.
Inside the lounge in team Golden Stag’s lodgings, while pasting a fresh, tender petal facial mask on her face, that flirty girl with hairs and fingernails all painted black looked at the issue of Breith Magazine on the table. She asked Rinsyi sitting not far away, “Rinsyi, first they say you’re secretly in love with Charlotte, now Ayrin especially wrote a letter to Breith Magazine and is asking you if you dare fight against Agate Lake Academy with an all-substitute lineup just like in the previous round. How do you feel right now?”
“Our House Baratheon only ever uses the most direct way to handle provocation. We’ll directly flatten him dead,” Rinsyi said. “I’m going to give him a good lesson first.”
“But he can run away from Lotton, he might be even more powerful than I thought,” the flirty girl said with a soft giggle. “Aren’t you worried?”
“Lotton isn’t the only one who can kill.”
Rinsyi gave the flirty girl a cold stare, silently saying those words to himself with a grim smile.
…
“Charlotte, I really miss you guys very much. I’m bored senseless here… I can’t go out of the sickroom, and they won’t even let me do any training. There’s a very perverted medical master here called Songat, he likes to stare at female medical masters every day like a lecher. He tries every day to have dinner with these women, go stargazing and whatever.
“That said, I hear he’s pretty amazing, he’s the number one medical master in the Office of Special Affairs. I hear it’s because he couldn’t stop himself from chasing skirt before like a pervert. He kept ending up beaten black and blue, so he often had to heal himself. That’s why his healing skills became so great afterward.
“He also told me I needed a couple weeks before I could be discharged. I haven’t seen Ferguillo yet, but I heard he’s recovering better than me, so he should be able to leave before I do. Right now I can’t even condense particles, it’s too boring, so you have to write back to me.
“There’s another good news, I already passed through the critical stage of the second arcane gate. I’m a two-gate arcane master now. Also… you kissing me that day, was it really not a dream? If it’s not a dream, then can you kiss me again before the next match?… Also, Charlotte, you’re really very pretty.”
Hiding alone in her room, reading Ayrin’s letter, Charlotte felt as though her heart was about to leap out of her throat when she saw Ayrin’s last two sentences.
“Bastard, idiot, moron!” she softly swore, while she started looking for blank paper with bright red cheeks.
