Chapter 187: Love and Obsession (2) (2/2)
Nevertheless, Philip’s words still aggravated Chi-Woo It was then Ru Aet his help to finish this mission safely” Chi-Woo felt touched by Ru Amuh’s words He was like the eldest child who helped his father stand with pride
“…Is that so?” Surprisingly, Apoline didn’t respond negatively to Ru Ah she wasn’t pleased, it see a step back “What is your class? Are you a priest or so like that”
“s Even ht, a priest was a very rare class a the heroes After all, a saintess usually acted as a hero’s helper rather than a hero Furthermore, Apoline knew there wasn’t yet a God established in this world that fit a priest Thus, the fact that Chi-Woo et a denomination and even reach the lowest rank was an ireat conditions to get the deal with him
“Hm…” Still, Apoline continued to ponder about the matter when she suddenly noticed a bluish, small lump near Chi-Woo Unable to overcome its boredom, Steam Bun had leapt out of Chi-Woo’s pocket and fell to the chair
Apoline blinked Slide— She unconsciously reached out towards Steauarding itself against Apoline
“…Pyu?” It leaned forward and tapped the end of her index finger
Apoline asked, “W-What is this?”
“Ah, it’s ?”
“Yes Its capacity is quite good”
Apoline was no longer listening to Chi-Woo She carefully rubbed Steaile object
“Can you reconsider? I want this man’s help as well Please?” The man spoke aardly and appealed to Apoline for Chi-Woo to join
“You’re really , Stea in Chi-Woo’s pocket She stared in disappointal stance and continued, “It feels like I’ for some reason, but I’ll trust you since Mr Ru Amuh vouched for you Even if you don’t meet hts”
Chi-Woo clicked his tongue It was truly a talent to talk so irritatingly
“Good We have five people now, right?” Thelook froain He quickly shook his head and added, “No! I was talking to myself!”
Chi-Woo tilted his head “Did you say five people?”
“Yep Since Abis can’t fight, I excluded her from the count, and there’s Ms Apoline, Mr Ru Amuh, uh…you, my brother, and me”
Chi-Woo turned around to look at Ru Hiana She put her hands together with a conflicted look on her face “Sorry, senior I’ on a separate mission soon I’m the captain of the team, so I can’t leave” It seereed to participate in
The man said, “Ho”
“No, not at all” Apoline shot the e and we have a priest, we’re fine on the ic front We have a lot of warriors as well, but we don’t have a scout” A scout was essential to detect eneht direction when they were lost “Moreover, if we get a native who knows the geography well, it’ll be even better”
Apoline wasn’t wrong, but the man and Ru Amuh looked troubled Ru Amuh had decided to help the man, but he had run into probleather people and form a team Heroes were not idiots They knew they wouldn’t be part of a large rescue teah to cross the border with such a small party of heroes No matter how desperate a hero was to earnrejected so hts of the Celestial Really, Apoline, as the first person they asked, agreed to be part of their teaht not have been enough, but with her reputation, some heroes would want to join them
Apoline was also fully aware of this fact She knew it so well that a slight sreed to be part of the teaoal, she needed to take the lead in this party Of course, she could co a scout, but Apoline refrained on purpose; the others had to ask her for help first Then she could fulfill their request Her authority in the team would be established naturally then
“Uh…we tried to talk to the others, but no one wanted to join” The man continued aardly, “So even if it’s a bit bothersome, would you be—” Thehiet us a scout”
Apoline, who had been preparing to sigh and say ‘I guess I have to step in’ and get up from her seat, was startled; she aardly sat back down and looked at Chi-Woo, who had gotten to his feet before she did “You’ll bring us a scout?”
“Yes”
“But I don’t think anyone will follow the words of a hero at the lowest tier”
“There’s a hero I’m personally acquainted with I’ll ask him”
“I don’t want a half-baked scout”
“He’s not half-baked He’s skilled”
Apoline couldn’t argue with that She closed her , but her true feeling was clear in the way her lower lip stuck out
“I’ll be back soon,” said Chi-Woo
True to his words, Chi-Woo came back before a cup of hot drink could cool down Next to hi?” Ru Amuh rose from his seat with a startled look on his face
“Oh, you’re still here” Nangnang raised his hand and waved
“But you told me you didn’t intend to participate…”
“Yes, that’s what I told you, but I’ nonchalantly continued, “And I have to take a promotion test soon With the help of Boss, I’ll probably pass it this ti chuckled and rubbed his body against Chi-Woo’s calves This was how different heroes who knew about Chi-Woo’sflatly refused Ru A the risk to participate in the —because he trusted Chi-Woo’s skills
“What—what’s this? A cat?” Apoline made a shrill sound Her intentions to nitpick anybody Chi-Woo brought co replied, “What do you mean a cat? How rude of you to addressWho are you?”
“I was the one who asked first”
“I’ from the second recruits My tier is Silver I”
Apoline and the man were surprised The tier system was the only way to measure a hero’s position and ability Since there was only one gold tier hero on Liber, Nangnangevent to be silver tier
Nangnang asked again, “So who are you?”
“…I’nang, who had his fur raised, widened his eyes His long tail also quickly went straight up “Oh , Afrilith Woah” Nangnang moved towards Apoline and circled around her “I can’t believe I’hts here What an honor!”
Apoline’s eyes followed hisaround her Even though he had a scar on his eye and a rough-looking face, his tail was fluttering fro continued, “It’s an honor to forhts that I’ve heard solicked his paw, and his eyes brightened
“Y-You flatter ed to answer because she had to try extremely hard to not reach out to pet him
Chi-Woo asked, “Are you satisfied?”
Apoline was slightly annoyed, but Nangnang’s skills were confiroo…alright” She had no choice but to give in
“Noe depart We can’t delay it any longer”
Everyone nodded at Ru Amuh’s words
“Since we’ve forer Good, let’s get ready today andthis, Apoline rose from her seat and quickly exited the room
Once she left, the man smacked his lips and said, “She’s quite hard to please Don’t you think so?”
Everyone nodded, much more vehemently than before
As soon as Chi-Woo left Ru Amuh’s house, he went to find Noel Noel was surprised; he had found a tea, Ru Amuh…”
Noel listened quietly and was pleasantly surprised by his team members—until Chi-Woo mentioned Apoline Noel frowned and said, “…Who did you say? Apoline? Froh…”
Chi-Woo asked, “What is it? Is there so?”
“No, that’s not the case but…” It wasn’t a problem with ability She was an Afrilith, and one of the Celestial Real child of the fahter was so faet per was clear: they couldn’t have sent her here eotten a massive backup at the cost of almost all the family’s wealth Noel had to admit she was an extremely rare asset to have at this time
However, Noel said, “At least the Nahlas are skilled But the Afriliths are fucking idiots whose only strength is their bloodline, yet they’re always arrogantly showing off without realizing how scary the world is Honestly, they’re lower than fucking dogs That faain to hell, but are too fucking stupid to get out of their delusions…”
Chi-Woo spat out the water he had been drinking as he listened She was being uncharacteristically blunt “Ms N-Noel?”
“Oh ”
Chi-Woo replied, “I-I’m sorry But the teae the uess it can’t be helped” Noel clicked her tongue “Well, I’m a little curious if she’ll still be able to bark as loudly in this world Maybe it’s a good thing It wouldn’t be a bad idea to take this opportunity to put the her neck left and right and wringing her hands Chi-Woo shuddered; Noel seeht
Then she said, “Anyway, I got it The first condition has been resolved soht?”
“Yes”
“Okay, when are you leaving?”
Chi-Woo replied, “Toate”
Noel said, “Then you don’t havemaster, you should rest well for now I’ll pack for you”
Bidding Noel farewell, Chi-Woo left the palace Aftera stop at the Shahnaz temple, he stayed there for a while and returned to his ho, but y around and went to bed Then the next day arrived, and the sun began to rise
