After confirming her thoughts, Alice decided to make a bold move. She got off the carriage and went to Avril and Catherine. Under everyone's surprised gazes, she helped them prepare food.
"Miss Alice, leave these things to us. Please go back to the carriage and rest.”Avril was shocked when she saw her employer cooking.
"It's okay. Seeing that everyone is so busy, I can't just sit there and watch.”Alice smiled sweetly and made up her mind to change into a gentle woman.
"Miss, how can you do this work? Leave it to me.”There was no need for Bu Lang to do this kind of work, but he couldn't watch Alice do it. He had no choice but to take the initiative to ask for the job.
"It's fine. I also want to learn to do some things. Moreover, it's quite boring to sit in the car every day. It's just nice to talk to these two sisters. Uncle Bu Lang, you should go and rest for a while.”Alice's meaning was very clear. We girls have something to talk about. You'd better leave quickly.
"Sister Elf, you're so beautiful. Are all elves very beautiful? And this sister was also the same. She was actually on par with the elves.”Alice decided to implement a roundabout strategy to save the country. She would first open up the route of these two members of the Stars Mercenary Corps. After all, friendship between girls came easily.
"That... This..." Catherine blushed and was speechless.
"Miss Alice is also very beautiful.”Everyone liked to be praised. Alice's words immediately closed the distance between her and Avril.
"Just call me Alice. Sister should be called Avril. That should be Sister Catherine. When I was chatting with Abel, I heard him mention that we were together.”Alice's words didn't sound wrong, but when one carefully examined them, it felt like she was speaking as Abel's wife.
"Is that so? That brat didn't say anything bad about us, right?”Fortunately, Avril and Catherine were the slow-witted type. They wouldn't say anything even if they did, let alone not being able to tell. After all, that little brat Abel had nothing to do with them.
"Of course not. He always said that it was all thanks to Sister Catherine's treatment that he was able to persevere in training. Sister Avril was accompanying him to relax.”If snatching food could be considered a form of relaxation, then Alice's words were right.
"At least that kid has a conscience! Eh? Alice, have you done this before? He seems to be very skilled."
"No, did I do well? That's because the two sisters taught me well!"
"Yes... Very good…" It seemed that Alice was very talented. Even Catherine praised her.
"Hehe! Thank you, Sister Catherine, for praising me! Oh, right, two sisters, wait for me.”Under Avril and Catherine's strange gazes, Alice quickly ran back to the carriage and then quickly ran back.
"This is my favorite. I'll give it to the two sisters as a greeting gift.”Looking at the two small bottles in Alice's hands, not only Avril, but even Catherine didn't care about her shyness. She stared straight at them without blinking.
"This... this... Could it be…" It wasn't Catherine, but Avril. She was so excited that she couldn't speak.
"Yes, Chanel No. 5!" Alice answered for her.
Chanel No. 5 was a top-notch perfume that was circulated among the nobles. There was a certain amount of sales every year, and it was expensive. A bottle the size of a finger cost thousands of gold coins, and it was not something that ordinary people could buy. Although Alice's family was mainly business, their business was indeed very big. They had a certain status in the circle of the capital. Even so, she could only buy five bottles a year, and this was because of her father's face. In order to win over Avril and Catherine, she had taken out two bottles at once. It was a huge investment.
Avril and Catherine had been drooling over such a top-grade item for a long time. However, even if they had the right to buy it, they wouldn't be able to afford it. Now, the most common thing in their dreams was right in front of them. The two of them were already very calm and did not scream in excitement. After all, this luxury item was too lethal to women.
"This is for us? No, it's too expensive!" Avril, who had recovered, knew the value of this item. She didn't dare to accept such a huge gift, but the reluctance in her eyes when she rejected it betrayed her true thoughts.
"Sister, you guys have worked so hard to protect me. This is just a little token of my appreciation. I'll be sad if you don't want it.”
"Then we'll accept it?"
"Yes, sister, I'll spray some for you. Those men will definitely go crazy for you.”As Alice spoke, she stole a glance at Avril. When a woman had something good, the first thing she wanted to do was to show it to the person she liked. Avril and Catherine didn't look at Abel. It was obvious that they didn't care if Abel could notice their changes, which made Alice feel relieved.
A gentle breeze blew past, bringing the fragrance of the three women to everyone. Those who smelled the fragrance stopped what they were doing to search for the source of the fragrance. As boorish people, they did not know anything about perfume. Who knew if this sudden smell was some kind of knockout powder? His sharp gaze swept past the suspicious areas and stopped at one place.
Alice's gentleness and cuteness, Avril's innocence and liveliness, and Catherine's shyness-the three women stood together and formed a beautiful scenery, firmly attracting everyone's attention.
"Why are these three girls together? They're really mesmerizing.”Even a playboy like Brad was momentarily dazed.
"Will Avril and Catherine be led astray by that little girl?”Winst's worries were not without reason. Although Ariel and Catherine were considered old mercenaries, just because they knew how to fight did not mean that they knew how to play with people. If they really left the mercenary group, they would probably be sold off to help count the money.
"You should be more concerned about Abel.”As a Thief, Will was sensitive enough to notice the deeper meaning behind it.
Winst and Brad looked at each other and immediately understood what Will meant. Abel, who had gone with Babasa to prepare the firewood, did not stay in the camp. He did not know that a plan against him was being carried out.
By the time Abel and the others returned, the camp had already been set up. Other than the mercenaries who were responsible for guarding the camp, everyone sat down in twos and threes to rest and chat. However, everyone's eyes were unconsciously looking at the same spot. Other than the Star Mercenaries who were already used to Ariel and Catherine, the Ferocious Tiger Mercenaries and the merchant group had no way of resisting such a destructive force.
"Albert, you're back!" When Alice saw that Abel had returned, she ran over from afar with a scarf in her hand, ready to wipe Abel's sweat.
"Ugh! Alice, I can do it myself!" Abel took the scarf that still had a faint fragrance and wiped his face while muttering to himself. "What's wrong with this girl? She suddenly came over to give me a scarf to wipe my face. Could it be that she's here to harm me because she hates me for not chatting with her today?”At the thought of this, Abel was so scared that he quickly took the scarf in front of him. He looked at it and smelled it again and again. Other than a little fragrance, he did not find anything unusual. Moreover, he had smelled this smell in Alice's carriage.
Abel was sniffing and looking for clues, but it was different in Alice's eyes. She saw that Aber took her scarf and sniffed and looked at it, looking like he couldn't put it down. She was happy but also embarrassed. She had always carried that scarf with her. The faint fragrance was her scent.
Abel tried hard for a while but couldn't find anything wrong. Helplessly, he stared at Alice, hoping to find something on her face. Alice, who was already embarrassed, became even more flustered when she saw Abel's unscrupulous gaze. Her eyes became evasive.
"There is indeed a problem!" Seeing Alice's reaction, Abel was even more certain that he was right. I didn't expect Alice to harm me just because of this. Angered, Abel stared at Alice, hoping that she could give him an explanation.
Alice felt the burning light in the other party's eyes and panicked even more. "Why is he looking at me like that? Could it be that he was thinking of the heavens? This was too embarrassing!!”Alice's face instantly turned red.
Seeing Alice's ears turn red, Abel's anger rose. "You know that I've already seen through you, but you're still not apologizing?”
"Humph!" Seeing that Alice still had no reaction, Abel snorted coldly, threw the scarf into the sky, and walked away.
Alice looked at Abel who was leaving in a daze. She did not even bother to catch the falling scarf. There was only one thought in her heart. "Oh no, he's angry. What should we do? But you can't blame me for this. There are so many people here. Even if he wanted to kiss me, he couldn't do it in front of so many people.”
Avril and Catherine knew what Alice was thinking. They were happy to see Alice care so much about Abel. After all, Abel had suffered too much and received too little care. Even though the two of them were far away, Avril had a good line of sight, so she saw everything that happened. From the moment Abel accepted the scarf to Alice's blushing face, even Avril and Catherine were moved by the romantic atmosphere.
Just as the two of them were praying for Abel and Alice's happiness, the scene changed. It was not until Abel approached that they reacted.
"Albert! Come over here!" Avril's shout not only shocked Abel, but also the mercenaries who were peeking at them.
Abel was also very puzzled by the furious Avril. He didn't seem to have offended her. However, Abel didn't dare not go. Otherwise, the next time Avril called him, he wouldn't be calling out to her with his mouth, but shooting with his bow.
"Hello, Sister Avril. Hello, Sister Tomato.”When Abel got closer, he noticed that not only was Avril furious, but even the gentle Catherine had a gloomy expression. Although he did not know what had happened, he wisely corrected his attitude and greeted her first.
Alice, who was standing in the distance, heard Avril's shout and knew that she was trying to avenge her. But how could he bring this up in the open? If Avril really taught Abel a lesson because of this, it wouldn't be worth it. After all, it wasn't that he didn't want to, but he should at least find a time when there was no one around. Thinking of this, Alice felt a wave of embarrassment in her heart. She got into the carriage with a flushed face.
Seeing Alice get into the carriage, Avril and Catherine thought that she was too sad and did not care about teaching Aber a lesson. They quickly followed her in, leaving Aber standing there with a confused expression, not knowing what to do.
"Hehe…This was just the beginning. He would suffer in the future.”Seeing the confused Abel walking over, Brad smiled evilly.
" It's good to be young!!" Captain Winst sighed.
"Fortunately, I wasn't the one guarding the carriage yesterday!”Will's tone unconsciously revealed a sense of relief.
"You guys…What's going on?" When Abel saw the pity in the eyes of Winst and the other two, he felt even more confused.
"Albert, a man should be able to endure what others can't!”Winst didn't care whether Abel understood or not. He patted his shoulder and left with Brad and Will. The three of them looked back as they walked, occasionally letting out a sigh. It made Abel's body go numb, as if he had a terminal illness.
Compared to the strange atmosphere in Abel's place, the carriage was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.
