Chapter 382 Part 1 Fall (2/2)

“It’s simple.” Nicole felt that she had had enough teasing Qiao Qiao. She smiled and said, “Let’s do this. I can choose to not accept the reward first. I will send the message to the recipient. After the recipient has given me a reply, I will bring this reply back to you. After you’ve confirmed that the recipient has received the message, you can give me my reward. How about it?”

Qiao Qiao nodded her head and said, “That’s for the best! After you’ve obtained his reply, come find me. I will definitely give you your reward.”

“So, where should I go to find you?”

“I will be at this bar every afternoon at this time.”

“It’s a deal then.”

Qiao Qiao’s mood improved and she put down her glass of wine. She stood up and said, “It’s a deal.”

She turned around to look at Soo Soo and said, “Let’s go.”

Soo Soo jumped down from her chair and accepted Qiao Qiao’s hand. Then, the two of them walked out of the bar.

Nicole watched the back of the two females as they walked away and a smile appeared on her face.

The fellows from Blade Mountain Flame Sea Guild quickly followed the two females as they left. However, two of them stayed behind.

These two men looked at the bar and moved toward Nicole.

Nicole lifted her glass and took a sip of wine.

“Miss,” said a member of Blade Mountain Flame Sea Guild who was standing before Nicole. “I would like to inquire what the two ladies had said to you just now.”

Nicole ignored him and continued drinking.

The other man frowned and took a deep breath before speaking out, “Just now, we saw her writing something on a piece of paper and give it to you. You then burnt that piece of paper. We want to know what was written on that piece of paper.”

Pausing, he then said in a somewhat frosty tone, “We are members of Blade Mountain Flame Sea Guild.”

“Oh.” Nicole put down her glass of wine and moved to leave.

“Hold it!” The two men from Blade Mountain Flame Sea Guild moved to intercept her. There were grim looks on their faces. “You have yet to answer our questions.”

“Members of Blade Mountain Flame Sea Guild?” Nicole raised her eyebrows.

“That’s right.”

Nicole smiled. “I understand now…”

“If so, our question…”

“I don’t feel like answering you.” Nicole shrugged her shoulders before continuing; “Now I am going to continue drinking. Please move aside.”

The fellow on the left side became somewhat furious and he said, “Miss! I don’t want to say anything harsh. However, it is best that you don’t cause any trouble in Zero City – like what you are doing now!”

Nicole was unable to stop herself from bursting into a laughter.

Her laugh made them confused. “So? Because you are members of Blade Mountain Flame Sea Guild, I must obediently answer your questions? Just because you think I cannot afford to provoke you?”

The two fellows regarded Nicole with stunned expressions.

“That makes sense, I guess.” Nicole smiled. “You probably recognize the members of the various resident guilds. Besides, the people who are not attending the Board of Patriarchs’ meeting are mostly brokers or outsiders, minor characters. So, you thought that I am one of them?”

The two fellows sneered. One of them said coldly, “You had better not cause any problems.”

Nicole inhaled deeply and replied, “Problems? Right now, you are the ones pissing me off.”

There were odd looks on both their faces – did this girl had too much to drink?

It was at that moment that Nicole’s hand abruptly shot out to grab hold of her wine glass. Then, she viciously slammed it upon one of the fellows’ head!

Pa!

The glass shattered and both the wine and glass fragments descended upon the man’s face!

The man entered a state of rage and he swore. “Bastard!” He brandished his fist!

However, when his fist was only less than 10 centimetres away from Nicole, his hand suddenly froze!

Both men’s expressions had turned strange as they stared at something!

Back when Nicole had smashed the glass of wine on the man’s head, she had pulled an item out and slammed it on the table.

It was a badge!

It was a very common looking badge. But, the surface of the badge depicted something with long wings… an angel!

The two men from Blade Mountain Flame Sea Guild stared intently at the badge. They appeared to have been hit by a paralysis spell. That was especially true of the one on the left. His fist remained hovering in the air and he dared not let it descend.

“If I recall correctly, no one is allowed to fight inside Zero City,” said Nicole who observed them coldly. “Unless under special circumstances, the only ones with the authority to use force is the Angel Corps. I am curious… since when did Blade Mountain Flame Sea Guild get that authority?”

The faces of the two men turned red.

A few seconds later, the fellow who had his head smashed with the glass of wine said as he held back his fury. “You, you are the one who hit us first.”

“Oh? Then you are free to go to the Angel Corps and make a complaint about me.” Nicole shrugged her shoulders. “Now, may I leave?”

The two men were stunned.

A peculiar smile appeared on Nicole’s face and she said, “Are you not going to make way? Interesting… members of Blade Mountain Flame Sea Guild dares to use force to provoke and trouble an active member of the Angel Corps?”

Those words were like a bucket of cold water splashing down their heads. The two men quickly recollected themselves.

The two men acted as though they had just been jolted. They quickly backed away and one of them even said, “So, sorry… we had offended you earlier.”
