Chapter 213 Matthew is amused (1/2)
Alex thought that Matthew showing up would make things more complicated. Since he wasn't sure what this person will say. There is a possibility that he might actually tell his secret from the get-go. Knowing this Alex didn't really want Matthew to join them but since he was here already he had no choice.
Alex separated from the three girls and went near Matthew, they were so close that their faces were rubbing each other.
”Matthew, please don't tell them about me being a merc, or you being the only student of the strongest Saint. If they ask I met you in the Southern Union in one of my trips there with my Dad.”
”Oh, that's surprising the silent flash is actually sounding a bit scared. Well, alright I won't tell them about me being my master's student, nor about you being a merc. Is that alright with you?”
”Thank you, Matthew.”
”Oh, also did you hear about Lyner?”
”What about Sir Lyner.”
”I heard from my master that he went to the Southern Union to steal away Saintess Anita.”
...
While the two boys were whispering to each other, the surrounding people reacted fiercely.
”Hey did you see that, the guy with the pretty girls, left them for that other dude.”
”Is that why he was so indifferent when he was with the girls.”
”Why are the good looking guys always playing for the other team.”
”I kinda feel sorry for the girls.”
...
Rachel noticing the changing atmosphere approached the two whispering boys. ”Hey what are you two doing over there?”
”Oh, it's nothing just catching up for a bit.” Matthew smilingly said.
”Is that so?” Rachel still not that convinced looked at Matthew warily. ”Well, can you guys catch up later we still need to get the costumes.”
