3 The Two Brothers at that Time (1/2)
”Hey little bro, why are there so many people at the special corps barracks?”
”I dunno Kai, cough, I mean Beryl, must be some special quest. Let's take a look.”
In the currently crowded town square, two handsome brothers stood at from the crowd, with many females swarming them with friend and party requests.
If Yuri was here to see this right now, she would most likely be screaming in frustration at the fact that Kai was too dense, and Toku was just not interested.
Ah, but of course, she was dense as well, her outstanding foreign beauty would also draw attention from many males but she never noticed, too focused on her thoughts.
Leisurely walking towards the barracks, the crowd of people seemed to part like a sea, with males looking in envy and girls looking in awe. Once again, it's not like they noticed though, the entire family should go see an eye doctor together some day.
”I wonder what Yuri is doing? I hope she's not getting picked up by any guys....” Kai, or Beryl, muttered while nervously looking around for her, unintentionally causing many females to swoon after getting looked at.
”She's too dense to notice, I guess she beats you at that huh.” The little brother retorted while completely ignoring the screaming girls, causing some perverted masochists in the crowd to fall in ecstasy.
”Well, she's a curious girl, I bet she's at the barracks right now too. We can probably meet her there.”
”Oh! Good idea, Tok—ahem, Lapis.”
”Let's just hurry up…” Lapis sighed while picking up his pace, eager to figure out the commotion that had piqued his rarely shown interest.
After finally arriving at their destination, the pair of brothers pushed through the dense crowd of onlookers to only find a line of NPCs guarding entry to the training field.
”What the fuck? I'm fed up of this, lemme in stupid NPCs, I have a class quest I need to do!” An angry onlooker roared while losing his cool, taking up his beginner sword he attempted to charge through, only to be cut down instantly.
Instantly the crowd fell silent, staring at the white particles of the dead swordsman.
”W-what the heck?” Whispered a mage girl, who had been standing next to the man. ”What's so important that you don't even hesitate to kill someone!?” She furiously interrogated the guards while gripping her staff.
”Ma'am please back off, the training grounds will reopen in a couple of minutes. In addition, adventurers like you do not lose their souls when killed, at worst you become weaker.” An NPC emotionlessly answered while staring at the girl. ”Thank you for your cooperation.”
”...hey Beryl, do you see Yuri anywhere?” Lapis asked while trying to get a look inside the training grounds.
”Errrr, she didn't tell us her class or username ahead of time so I'm not sure.”
”Dammit, I can't see anything past these NPCs, how come whenever I'm finally interested in something I'm blocked from finding out?” Lapis grumbled while grinding his teeth in annoyance. ”Tsk, this is so frustrating.”
