Chapter 12: Venomous Eyes (2/2)

”You accepted this, though,” The butler replied.

He was the one who accepted people in his lord's name and personally handed the most quests.

It would look different in bigger households, but it was what it was.

Venomous smiled, ”I wouldn't refuse such an easy quest and pocket money.” Her eyes turned serious then, ”Look at this and arrange a meeting for us with your Lord.”

These words were a signal to Michu to pass the information about his banana to the butler.

But he was still a little unskilled with all those system windows, so his hands flailed like a zombie before the screen.

He soon shouted, ”I did it… I think…” Michu scratched his chin in wonder, but Venomous nodded after her hand left her forehead.

It seemed like awkwardness finally faded away.

”I will call my lord immediately,” The butler exclaimed after seeing the banana's description. He turned heels and rushed to the lord's room.

The doors to the mansion didn't even close, but Venomous tactfully told Michu to wait for the old man to return.

She asked, ”I hope you didn't forget to hide the name?”

”Yes, but I couldn't hide anything else. This is the game's feature, right?” Michu replied with another question.

He hid the banana's name to cover its origins, then wanted to even play with the description to get praise.

His good idea ended up with a big failure that Michu didn't dare to share with Venomous.

”Yes. Otherwise, it would be easy to swindle in this game.”

And as Michu complained a little about his freedom, he could understand a few things when it came to such bad things. His family had some sad past with those.

At last, the butler returned.

His face had changed from indifferent to gleeful one in Michu's eyes. He was really happy to see him and the young monkey scratched his hair from this sudden attention.

His friend was the one who took things seriously and carefully.

But as Venomous stepped into the mansion and followed the butler, she suddenly looked different.

It was all in Michu's eyes, but he felt like she belonged to such exquisite and extravagant places.

This glance lasted for a little as Michu's eyes began to run around the whole corridor. His scanned paintings, furniture, doors, and everything that piqued his curiosity.

Finally, the butler stopped, opened the doors then the duo entered the office.

Michu continued his odd behavior, looking around like a monkey.

While her friend just stood like an oddball, Venomous took a seat and put hands on her legs. She sat straight and with enough demeanor to make the lord keep his eyes off Michu.

”I am Tron Fabian. It seems like you two have come with bigger interest, so allow me to cut straight to it.” A noble with a round belly and oily face introduced himself.

Venomous raised her green eyes, ”Don't you want to hear our names?” Faint laughter escaped the noble's lips after this question.

His cheeks tensed and he seemed to turn more serious after Venomous just introduced herself with an in-game nickname.

It was a noticeable change she didn't miss.
