Chapter 318 - Joker Cards (1/2)

Cling! Cling!

Markus pushed the door open followed by Maya as the sound of bells echoed.

Inside, they saw a woman wearing a pair of glasses sitting while reading something on her phone behind the reception desk just two meters away from the entrance door.

The woman looked towards them and raised one of her eyebrows when she saw their sorry sight.

But she was a professional, so she still smiled as she stood up and while wearing the brightest smile she could offer, and she said ”Welcome, a room for two? How long will you be staying?”

Markus and Maya stood rooted on the spot before they looked at each other.

'Did we come to the right place?' Maya couldn't help but have that kind of thought. After all, she was expecting something grander and...not like this where the place is too simple looking.

In fact, she recognized that the style of the inn has similarities to those inns back in Nippon.

”Uhmm...we didn't come here to stay in the room but some other matters,” Markus said after a bit of hesitation.

The woman raised her eyebrows and went back to sitting in her chair and said, ”Then what is it? Can't you see I'm busy?”

'Busy? More like lazy!' Maya really wanted to stride forward and screamed on her face after hearing that.

Rumble!

Maya and Markus quickly turned around when they heard the unorganized sound of footsteps, and what they saw was a group of ten people armed with weapons standing just outside the building, glaring at them.

The woman's eyes flashed with a glint when she saw them, then she stood up and walked around the desk while wearing a huge grin on her face.

”Oh my! Is tonight my lucky day!?”

”What!? No! They're not guests!” Markus was startled by her sudden action that he couldn't help but yell at her, extremely fl.u.s.tered.

But the woman just ignored him, and Maya hurriedly pulled him back.

Markus looked at her in confusion, ”Wha..what are you doing?”

But Maya just shook her head and gestured for him to just shut his mouth and watch, as she wanted to know what this woman is planning to do by going outside.

The woman walked outside towards the group of men.

Markus and Maya couldn't hear anything from inside, but they knew that they are discussing something. In fact, they can even see that the men are slowly surrounding the woman, which worried Markus.

But Maya just looked on, as she already has a feeling that the woman isn't so simple.

”Holy..sh*t!”

Then Markus couldn't help but cursed in shock as he took a couple of steps back, even Maya was surprised when she saw the scene happening before their eyes.

Everything happened so fast that the brains of the two young a.d.u.l.ts weren't even able to register just what the heck happened!

All they saw was that the five men attack the woman at the same time, but she nimbly dodged all of them before striking back, and all of them fell down on the ground, twitching!

Her attack was so fast that Markus and Maya only saw her attacking the men once before they were defeated, but if Zero, Michael, or others were the once who witnessed this, then they would see that the woman actually struck the men multiple times in their vital points!

This is the reason why they were defeated so fast, and if the woman didn't show them any mercy, they would have died by now.

The woman glared at the men lying on the ground and angrily kicked one of them on the stomach.

Smack!

”As*holes! If you f*cktards are here to cause trouble, then f*ck off!”

The woman dusted her hands off, turned around, and walked back inside with a gloomy face.

Markus and Maya quickly made way for her. Markus swallowed his saliva as he looked at her nervously.

The woman just ignored both of them, and while stomping her feet in anger, she went back behind the reception then looked at the two.

”So, what do you two want!? Spit it out! I don't have the mood to be messing around unless you guys want to end up like those bastards!” she yelled in anger, she even threatened them, not caring that they are still teenagers.
