Chapter 302: Sending a parchment mission (1/2)

”R-RatSlayer…?” A skeptical whisper from someone.

”What? That person is the RatSlayer?”

”Yes, yes! It's the RatSlayer!”

”Woah! RatSlayer, long time no see!”

”How have you been!”

”Dammit! RatSlayer will be exterminating rats once again!”

”What! The RatSlayer came back?!”

”Hide rats baby! The slayer will be hunting y'all!”

The barracks suddenly became lively. The loiters greeted him with enthusiasm, some with a mix of sarcastic remarks. However, Yman wasn't a bit bothered by it. He was used to these fellas.

But it was different to Yana and Rea, who were both surprised at the sudden uproar coming from the people inside.

”RatSlayer…?” Yana muttered. It was an unusual name to call someone. And that someone was her brother. When she glanced at her brother, she noticed no dissatisfaction from him.

She sighed.

If ever her brother showed a little displeasure, she would be going to punish these people. Although she was crippled for a long time, she still remembered all those abilities she learned from her childhood.

Regardless, Yana never thought many people knew her brother.

Regardless, Yman noticed the atmosphere inside was livelier than before. The ambiance had improved a lot. Not the usual haunted house vibes it used to be when he first came to register together with Bob and Chloe.

Even the painting inside was now more pleasing in the eyes compared to before. They were now using light-colored paint on the walls. Even the tiled floors were shinier, not the usual yellowish and brownish. Now, three new ceiling fans are rotating on the ceiling, producing fresh air below it. The chairs, desks, and tables were new as well.

Yman was surprised by the improvements. Though, the arrangement was still the same as before. The counter was still at the center, and there was still the pub on their left side.

But when he rolled his eyes, Yman was dumbfounded. Almina and Miss Ice's poster was everywhere, together with him. Specifically, it was the picture of the mysterious black magician.

Almina turned red when she noticed Yman's eyes looking at her pictures.

”Uh, err, It wasn't what you think. I'm not doing a modeling side job!”

Yman just smiled. ”That's… a good picture…” After saying it, he proceeded to the counter.

Almina was left standing with fumes coming out on her head.

”Hmph!” Rea pursed her lips at Yman's remark.

Yman handed the parchment to the counter. He was about to leave after handing, but the counter employee called out to him.

”Wait, sir!”

Yman glanced back, ”Yes?” The counter girl was a new face. So it was understandable that she didn't know him. He was the famous RatSlayer in this barracks, so most of the old counter people knew him. But this girl was different.

”Uhm, it was a sealed parchment…” said the counter girl while pointing to the golden ribbon, used to tie the parchment.

”Uh, what of it?” Yman asked nonchalantly as he looked at her.

”With this kind of important letter, the identity of the messenger was important to know,” she told him.

”I see,” Yman understood.

Almina was about to say something but stopped when Yman walked near the counter while pulling something from within his coat.
