"Albert!" Back at the hotel, Brad wished he could eat Abel.
"Brother Brad, what's the matter?”Abel walked out of the room, completely forgetting about the meal and the bill.
"My happiness!" Brad looked up at the sky and sighed. He had planned to find a romantic place to discuss the high-level academic problem of how humans were born with the lady after dinner. However, he could not even afford an ice cream cone after paying for himself and Abel. He could only watch her leave. By the way, the couple package was really expensive.
"Brad! You're finally back. I'll say it again. I'm not in that kind of relationship with Albert!”Avril heard Brad's voice and hurriedly ran out.
"What relationship?" Avril's voice was so loud that everyone else revealed their curious heads.
"What kind of relationship can there be between two people who are sitting together and eating a couple's meal?”Brad pursed his lips. It was obvious that he was taking revenge.
"Couple set meal?" Everyone gaped at Abel and Avril.
"No!" Avril, who couldn't explain herself, shouted and ran back to her room with a red face.
"We, we…No…" Abel, who knew that he had been misunderstood, explained weakly.
"Alright, alright. We're all men. Who doesn't understand?”He patted Abel's shoulder and left. Winst and the others didn't say anything. They looked at Aber meaningfully and went back, leaving Aber standing there alone.
The night passed quickly. Abel, who had finished his meditation, came to the dining room and was surprised to find that Avril was not there! He hurriedly ran out of the hotel. That's right, the sun rises from the east.
"Albert, don't be silly. We're weirder than you.”Seeing Abel's reaction, Winst understood.
"Why are you standing there? He quickly went to wake Avril up for dinner. He still had to go to the guild.”Seeing that Abel was still standing there like a fool, Brad looked impatient.
"Why am I the one calling?" Abel didn't think of the deeper meaning behind him waking Avril up. He just wanted to eat quickly.
"Catherine sprained her ankle!" Brad would definitely lie as soon as he opened his mouth. Abel looked curiously at Catherine, who was sitting there perfectly fine.
"That... I..." Catherine's face was slightly red, but she did not say whether she was injured or not.
"Forget it, it's just a call. I'll go, okay?”Abel mumbled as he walked towards Avril's room.
"Avril! Wake up!" Abel stood outside Avril's door and called out softly. After waiting for a while, there was still no response from the room. Did something happen? Without any time to think, Abel kicked the door open and rushed in.
Poor Avril had insomnia because of yesterday's incident. She finally fell asleep when the sky was slightly bright. In her daze, she seemed to hear someone calling her. Just as she sat up and was about to agree, she heard the door being kicked open and a figure rushing to her bedside.
"A-A-Avril…You…" Abel was dumbfounded when he rushed in. Avril's clothes were messy, and her fair shoulders were exposed outside her pajamas. Her eyes were bleary, and she was obviously not conscious. She had no idea that her sleep had caused the entire room to be filled with spring.
"Hmm? Abel? What's the matter so early?" Avril didn't realize that Abel was in her room.
"I-I'm fine... That... I'll go out first..." Abel planned to slip away while Avril was still asleep.
"Go out? What do you mean?" Avril was stunned when she heard Abel's words. Then, she realized that the decorations around her looked very much like her own house.
" Ah!!!!" Everyone in the hotel heard a cry of surprise.
Inside the restaurant, Winst and the others were wondering why Abel and Avril hadn't come down yet. Suddenly, they heard Avril's shout. Thinking that something had happened, they instantly rushed up.
"Avril! Are you alright? Ah... We won't disturb you anymore…" Everyone shouted and rushed up. When they saw the scene in the room, they retreated in a low voice.
Inside the room, Avril crossed her arms and hid in the corner of the bed with a terrified expression. Tears welled up in her eyes, and Aber stood in front of Avril's bed, staring at her without blinking.
"S-s-sorry!" Abel covered his eyes and ran out, but he had already seen what he should see. There was no point in covering his eyes.
The scene changed to the dining room again. Abel sat there with his head lowered and did not say a word. The others 'mouths twitched as they tried their best to hold back the urge to laugh. The most heartless person was Brad. He was already prepared to watch Abel get shot into a porcupine, and he even reminded Catherine to quickly prepare the healing magic.
A beautiful figure appeared at the staircase. Avril, with her peach-like eyes, was walking slowly with a furious expression. She had already nocked an arrow in her hand, as if she was considering where to shoot Abel to vent her anger.
"Avril, I'm sorry. I really didn't mean it.”Abel quickly apologized when he saw Avril's murderous look and looked around for help. Unfortunately, he was greeted by five heads, and no one dared to touch Avril's eyebrows.
"Then you mean I did it on purpose!!”Avril gritted her teeth so hard that sparks were about to fly.
"No…Aren't I just concerned about you and afraid that something would happen to you?”
" What will happen to me?!"
"That... I saw that you didn't even come down for dinner, and you didn't respond when I called you, so..."
"Then who do you think made me lose sleep last night?!”The furious Avril said something she absolutely shouldn't have.
"Insomniac? Did I do this?" Abel was puzzled. I didn't look for you last night.
"You…" Avril realized that she had said something wrong, and her face instantly turned red.
"Alright, Avril. It was my idea to let Abel look for you. Don't be angry.”As the leader, Winst wanted to stabilize the team, so he could only take the blame for Brad.
"But Guild Leader…" Avril didn't dare to throw a tantrum at Winst, but if she knew that the culprit was Brad, she would have shot him with her bow.
"Albert has apologized. Let's forget about it and not talk about it.”
"Then... Alright then." Avril sat down angrily and vented all her anger on the food. At this moment, Abel did not dare to snatch food from her.
Everyone watched in fear as a humanoid Tyrannosaurus finished its breakfast. They went to the Mercenary Guild again, hoping that there would be a suitable mission today.
"Excuse me, are there any new missions?”Winst asked the receptionist with a smile.
"Humph! Can't you see for yourself?!" When the girl saw the symbol on Winst's chest, her expression instantly turned cold, and her attitude became unprecedentedly bad.
"Then can you please give me the mission list in your hand?”Winst was puzzled. What was wrong with this girl? Her attitude was so good yesterday, but why did she seem to be going through menopause today?
"Pa!" Nyssa slammed the mission list in her hand onto the table and muttered," Men are all bad.”
Winst trembled as he held the mission list. Another one who lost her temper because of a man. Could it be that she was abandoned? However, who had such bad taste? This little girl was pretty good looking, and she even caused me to suffer this.
"Eliminate the demonic beasts?" "Digging graves?" "Revenge and murder?" "Protect important people?" "Protect the caravan?" He would consider it and see if there were any little girls inside. If there were, he would not do it."Eliminate the spirits?" I wonder if Abel is afraid of ghosts. Should I throw him into the graveyard for a night? "Bakery waiter?"”What the hell, why did the recruitment workers come to the Mercenary Association?
Winst put down the mission list in his hand gloomily. There was still no suitable one. Helpless, he could only discuss with everyone whether he should accept the mission to protect the merchant group. However, he was curious as to why the receptionist girl was so nice to him.
"Leader, did you find anything?" Seeing Winst return, everyone hurried forward.
"Two discoveries. Firstly, there was a mission to protect the merchant group, which seemed to be suitable for the moment. Secondly, the girl at the front desk has been abandoned by some heartless bastard. She's in an extremely bad mood now. Be careful to take a detour when you see her later. Damn it, it seems like that little girl has a bad attitude towards me.”
Hearing Winst's words, Avril chuckled and gave Abel a meaningful look, which piqued everyone's curiosity.
"Avril, what are you laughing at? Do you know that girl?" Winst looked curiously at Avril, who had a straight face just now.
"Captain, I don't know her, but if you're looking for that heartless person, I do know.”
"Oh? You know that kid? Where is that bastard? I can vent my anger on him.”After saying that, Winst drew his double-handed sword and gestured twice. Beside him, Abel broke out in a cold sweat.
"Albert, why are you sweating?”Avril expressed her concern for Abel with sinister intentions.
"It's, it's fine. It's too hot here. I'll go out for a walk..."
"Hey ~~ don't be anxious, the leader is going to take on the mission of protecting the merchant group, you should follow and learn.”Avril was like a little wife, full of hope that her husband could learn more.
"Oh! That's right. Albert, come with me to accept the mission and familiarize yourself with it.”Although Winst was curious why Avril was suddenly not angry at Aber and was even so concerned about him, he would do anything that was beneficial to Aber.
"Hello, what can I do for you?”Nisse, who was busy with her head lowered, sensed that someone was coming and hurriedly stood up. "Eh? It's you!" Her gentle voice instantly turned into gritted teeth.
"Ah... That... I..." Ai Bo didn't know what to say. If she wanted to say that she stood her up, Ai Bo didn't ask her out at all. However, girls were thin-skinned, so she couldn't say that. Otherwise, she would die.
"Hmph! Why are you looking for me instead of your girlfriend?”
"No, that's not my girlfriend.”Abel wanted to cry.
Listening to their conversation, Winst was confused. "You two know each other?"
"I don't really know her. I don't even know her name.”Abel whispered in Winst's ear.
"You should ask your subordinates yourself.”Nisse's voice was not soft at all.
"Albert, what happened between the two of you? Why does she look like a resentful wife? Ah! That damned heartless bastard couldn't be you, right?”Winst was whispering to Aber when he suddenly had a thought and pointed his suspicion at Aber.
"I didn't do anything. How did I become a heartless man?”Abel felt wronged.
"Looks like Avril knows too. I'll go back and ask her.”After knowing that the culprit was Abel, Winst gave up on the idea of venting his anger. Combined with Avril's words, he was sure that Avril knew the inside story.
"Beautiful lady, although I don't know what happened, if it's really Abel's fault, I'll give you an explanation. Now, please help me accept this mission.”He wasn't sure if it was Abel's fault, but Winst wouldn't allow outsiders to criticize his soldiers, so he spoke in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
"Humph!" Nyssa knew that she shouldn't bring her personal emotions into work, so she endured her anger and finished the procedures. She snorted coldly and ignored the two of them. Winst, on the other hand, wouldn't ask for a snub. He turned around and left with Abel.
"Avril, what happened between Abel and that little girl?”Hearing Winst's words, the others quickly perked up their ears. This kind of gossip was rare, and it happened to Abel, who had a very low EQ.
"That's it…" Avril slowly recounted yesterday's story. When she mentioned the place where she had asked Abel to meet her, her face turned red.
"Albert, you have a better future than me.”When he heard that he could get girls like this, Brad felt that he had lived in vain.
"Avril, Abel doesn't know how to talk. Explain to him so that he won't hate our mercenary group.”Winst didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Abel's blunder.
