Chapter 97: Laura Agila (2/2)

He nodded at her. Then he saw the headmaster's mouth curled upward with a suspicious smug face.

”Crimson Canceler...?” Ella muttered. 'This nickname was suspicious,' she thought.

Yman glanced at her and smiled again. Ella blinks her eyes. Wondering why he kept on smiling at her.

On the contrary, In Yman's mind. 'Why she kept on staring at me with a suspicious look?'

Gilion noticed their little exchange of staring and smiling. A wave of anger burst towards his head. He wanted to beat this insolent guy.

A moment later,

Yman noticed her sighed in relief, then opened her mouth saying, ”What a nice timing. Good thing that you are here, I was about to ask the receptionist below for your contact. Actually, I have something I needed to ask you personally,”

Yman did not able to reply directly. He wondered why the headmaster looking for him. A second later, he said while narrowing his eyes,”Uh,r-really?” It was very unexpected for him that the headmaster herself would be looking for him.

Not only Yman was wondering, even Ella and the others.

”Uhm, may I know the reason, headmaster?” He added.

”Sorry, I can't openly tell you the details here. Please follow us upstairs.”

After hearing her Aunt's words, ”Auntie wait, how about my—” Ella was not able to finish her words when a finger of the headmaster landed on her lips.

Then she smiled saying, ”It was also about that, Merea, so you too will come with us.”

”Eh?” Ella was puzzled.

Yman on the other hand had become more suspicious, but at this moment, a smirk appeared on his mouth. Since the headmaster couldn't tell it in the presence of others. It must be a secret mission!

Since it was a secret mission. It could also be said that it was a high tier quest! And since it was a high tier quest! It also means a huge reward!

But he was wondering at the headmaster's last line, that also involved her niece.

Not only Yman and Ella were surprised with the headmaster's words, even Ella's friend, Vince, and the other's were also surprised at her.

Vince narrowed his eyes. He could smell a high tier mission from the tone of the headmaster.

Second later, ”Sorry gentlemen, but I have to talk these two in private,” the headmaster excuses herself together with Ella and Yman.

Most people in the bar were envious that a newbie was able to have a private talk with the headmaster and more on that, together with Miss Ella!

”Holy cow!” They exclaimed in their minds. They suddenly had the urge to curse this newbie.

”Wow, even though he was a newbie like me, he was already going to have a private talk with the headmaster!” The innocent-looking newbie exclaimed in admiration.

However,

”Wait, headmaster,” Vince called out.

She glanced at him, and immediately recognized him, because he was a gold rank adventurers and already made a name inside the guild. ”Oh, Vince, do you need something?”

”Ahaha, nothing really... (Vince rubbed his hands against each other while having a toothy smile.) actually headmaster, it was almost a week since I was out of high tier mission. And isn't it a waste of time for a golden rank adventurer like me to have such a long vacation?!”

The headmaster seemed to understand what he meant.

”Tomorrow there are tons of new high tier missions that will be posted,” She said.

But she noticed that Vince wasn't happy with this news. The headmaster was about to open her mouth again when another person interrupted her.

”Wait! Headmaster, I can't just let that guy go without a duel!” Gilion shouted.

Ella frowned. She wondered why Gilion was still insisting on a duel with this person. Even her friend Hannah knitted her brows at Gilion's incessant remarks for issuing a duel.

The knight captain just sighed and Gilion's friend showed a can't be helped expression.

The other people started cheering for Gilion. Well, out of envy towards the newbie.

Vince grinned. For some reason, he started to like this Gustav kid.

The headmaster knitted her brows, ”Sorry Gilion—”

”Oh, a duel with me? Kuku, I won't mind.”

Everyone fell silent when the newbie suddenly agreed.

They wondered if this newbie didn't know about the Gustav family.
