Chapter 158 Foggy future. (1/2)
‘Was that really the right decision…’
Elodia was standing outside of the adventurer guild She wanted to hit her head against the wall after recalling what had happened not so long ago
After having spent a whole day dealing with pesky adventurers that just didn’t understand how the prices of e she was tired Then a co-worker appeared out of nowhere asking her to stay a couple of hours‘important’ to take care of
Elodia kneell that this was untrue and that the girl would be down at the local tavern having fun with her friends This has not been the first time but Elodia always needed the money so she didn’t care much about the excuses That is until a better deal arrived at her doorstep
‘Why did I have to agree when everyone atching!’
She grabbed her hair while looking down on the ground while not knohat got into her The moment he walked over to her counter she had lost it All the stress fro up caused her to lose her composure for the faintest of moments
So then she took him up on the offer while everyone watched It would be hard to go back on her state with Solana that heard it all
“Ms Elodia, is everything alright?”
Ato a seventeen-year-old called out to her There he was, the handsome Runesmith that was on the hel her was quite good she wasn’t sure if the man could deliver on the promises
Elodia was quite aware of the debacle that he was going through with the dwarven union In her opinion, the best move for hiround with the dwarves No news of hiuild so it seemed that Wayland was quite stubborn just as the dwarves that he was going up against
“Oh, I’lad that you waited for me to finish”
“That’s fine, I understand that lad that you have decided to take me up on my offer, we can write up a proper contract in a few days, that is if you are fine with it?”
She spaced out for a s see rapidly and that was not so risks and while working for an aspiring runesuild was much safer
“Ah yes, the contract …”She paused a little bit as contracts were kind of a specialty There was a possibility of getting a good deal but she didn’t think Wayland would go through the trouble of signing a one-sided contract that favored her
“Great, I’ve already got one ready, I’ll give you a copy to on you froo so beside the street It was the first ti the longer hours The shock on the young girl's face was so about her own future she returned hoe
As always it was quite loud and the kids were playing with so adults that came over from time to time Lobelia and Ar out with and these tere people that the half-elf knew
“Renny, Jasper, thank you for keeping the children corateful that there was so men They seemed somewhat sketchy but Lobelia vouched for their morals so she let it be She could only hope that they wouldn’t go down a bad road while taking a couple of her children along with them
“Leave it to us Elodia!”
“I hope you weren’t teaching thelanced at so that looked like a lockpick in Jasper’s hand The young
“Don’t worry big sis, I’ll keep them in line!”
“I hope, for your sake…”
Elodia narrowed her eyes while glancing at Lobelia These two half-beastmen were proper adventurers but she did not have the opportunity to glance at their adventure cards Soeon runs but she knew that the tere only here due to her younger sister
“Uh… hey, I heard about the big news, are you really quitting froe the topic as she was getting cornered in a spot by Elodia It seeer sister had always been good at gathering infor
“Who told you that?”
“Oh, a little bird told ht be a great change of pace, you have been looking tired lately… just look at those bags under your eyes, youcare of yourself!”
Elodia was taken aback by Lobelia’s reply She didn’t see her steady post at the adventurer's guild Before she could bring that up, Lobelia walked over and gave her a big hug
“Don’t worry about us or the kids, we can take care of ourselves, do what you want to do … also stop being so stiff big sis!”
The two soon parted and it became quite loud as the kids zoo after Lobelia while laughing Elodia could just ser sister
She still felt responsible for this whole house but the paycheck that Wayland was offering seeripe was the uncertainty of hi in this hostile environment
“Is it true, did that bastard really propose to you?”
“What are you talking about, are you drunk again?”
After half an hour Armand decided to show his face It was dinner ti in Apparently, theto Elodia in the guild and her accepting in an instant
“I did accept but it…”
“You did? This can’t be happening … so it really was true…that blasted armor I can beat some sense into him…”
“Good luck with that, pea brain, I’d put my money on Wayland”
“I second that”
“Thirded”
Renny and Jasper were still here whileon soht Wayland would not havecare of Armand
