Chapter 333 – Impressive-Looking, But Useless (2/2)
“Un, Caesar, it’s a good plan, but… ” Abra interrupted him and indistinctly said, “I’m not calling your friends strength into question, I just think… look, they’re so young, it’s too dangerous for them to go with us. Also, your friend even brought a maid… so we should wait a bit.”
“… What?” Caesar blinked, “That’s exactly what you’re doing.”
“Un… okay, since you realized, that’s indeed the case.” Abra scratched his head and admitted it.
A random brat that crashed through the door wants to join the team to kill demonic beasts, no one would easily agree to that, right?
Although they were both young, but Cesar’s reputation had already spread far and wide, even Abra recognized him as a reliable person to fight with and didn’t see him as a child. But this Lin Xiao was a no-name…
Not to mention that he looked exceedingly normal, and he even brought two beauties along with him. One seemed to be an impressive-looking but useless girl, wearing black stockings and high heels and carried two swords. She looked impressive but was obviously weak, the other one was even worse, she was wearing a maid outfit…
Please, are you coming for a vacation or for a mission? Why did you bring a maid?
Even prince Caesar didn’t bring an attendant, who are you to bring a maid?
Do you expect the other inspectors to protect your maid during a fight?
What a joke!
Just based on the first impression, it was impossible for Abra to have any trust in Lin Xiao.
“Um, don’t be rushed, I was just… passing by and still don’t get what’s going on, so how did it become the talk of joining the team?”
“Lin Xiao, stop pretending, I know you heard everything earlier. The demons are occupying the canyon and we have to chase them away!”
“Uh, so what’s you plan?”
“To fight our way through! We’re just lacking two people.”
“So?”
“You and ShenDai Ying are those two, we can set out tomorrow… Lin Xiao, even though Abra may not trust you, but I trust that you will never let me down. With you here, we can surely succeed this time!” Caesar looked at Lin Xiao with eyes full of expectations.
Lin Xiao was uncomfortable from his look and still responded.
“But… did you say I was going to join your team?”
“…”
“…”
With those words, everyone fell silent. They all stared at him slack-jawed like they heard something unbelievable.
“You don’t want to join?”
Abra smacked his lips and was sure that Lin Xiao wasn’t joking. He frowned and shook his head in disappointment.
No one at the alliance office considered the option of not participating.
Everyone gathered here were the elites of Lombard Kingdom, whether for fame or whatnot, everyone shared a common purpose, and that was to head towards Gotham Kingdom and deal with the pandemic. So clearing the path was a clear choice to complete the mission.
Was everyone not afraid of death?
Of course not! If they were afraid, then they wouldn’t take the risk to go to Gotham Kingdom and would just stay at home!
Since everyone was investigators here, they should all bravely undertake the mission, but this youth doesn’t want to join… why?
Was he looking down on them? Or did he plan on sitting back and then safely pass by after others risked their lives to drive the demons away?
What a coward!
Lin Xiao hadn’t even said anything yet, but everyone there already labeled him as a coward.
“Lin Xiao, do you still not understand?”
Caesar never expected Lin Xiao to reject, and thought that Lin Xiao still didn’t understand the situation. So he calmed himself and explained everything to him again and then asked again.
“So are you joining or not?”
