Chapter 42: The Elf Maiden Who Has Always Been "Flagged"
Chapter 42: The Elf Maiden Who Has Always Been "Flagged"
"Yecheng, have you considered choosing another town's Adventurer's Guild for commissions? I know a town where the Adventurer's Guild is larger than the one in Marg Town, and the missions there are more advanced."
On a path in the countryside, Cui, walking alongside Yecheng, was teaching him the Elven Royal Clan's secret technique—the storage magic that allows one to draw weapons and items from the void at will. At the same time, she subtly asked if Yecheng had any thoughts of switching guilds.
The reason Cui had this idea was because she had encountered a formidable presence at the Adventurer's Guild—Soya, the receptionist. Not only was Soya attractive and had a fiery figure, but she also knew how to handle situations, and had the halo of being the "first woman Yecheng met in the Otherworld." As a result, Soya's existence made Cui feel very uneasy.
Just a few minutes earlier, as the tension between Cui and Soya grew more intense, Yecheng, with a strong sense of self-preservation, quickly selected a random mission and fled.
On one side was the first woman he met in the Otherworld, who had taken good care of him. On the other side was his roommate and fake fiancee.
Logically, these two women should not have formed a battlefield. However, whether it was due to the competitive nature of outstanding women or some other reason, Yecheng's intuition told him that as a man caught in the middle of such a storm, the outcome would not be good.
So, with a keen sense of danger, he chose to run away immediately...
With Yecheng, the target of their jealousy, no longer around, the battlefield between Cui and Soya naturally subsided.
Before leaving, Cui didn't forget to give Soya a parting shot: "So what if you met him first? I can always be by his side, but can you?"
After leaving these words, Cui walked out of the Adventurer's Guild and clearly heard the sound of the counter collapsing as she left.
While Cui appeared triumphant on the surface, she was actually a bit insecure. On one hand, Soya was a formidable competitor, and on the other hand, Yecheng was too dense!
Indeed, when Yecheng saved her from the venomous dragon, Cui had developed a certain admiration for him.
Otherwise, as a proud Elven Royal Princess, how could she so easily compromise and even suggest pretending to be a couple after being seen naked?
It was a joke to think that in pretending to be a couple, the woman would be the one who suffered more. Cui's suggestion was already a subtle hint.
However, Yecheng, being as dense as a steel bar, completely missed her hints and continued to believe that it was a measure to protect her reputation. This left Cui speechless.
Despite being continuously "flagged," Cui did not give up. Instead, she prepared for a long-term battle, and pretending to be a couple was part of her plan.
Now that they lived under the same roof and went on adventures together, Cui believed that even if Yecheng was dense, he would eventually realize her feelings.
Cui didn’t expect that her plan would be suddenly disrupted by the appearance of such a formidable rival as Suya. This was why she now suggested to Yecheng that they eliminate this powerful opponent.
"Marg Town is pretty good, and with Miss Suya’s special treatment, we can continuously receive high-paying advanced tasks. Why would we want to move to another town?
Besides, I’ve only just settled in Marg Town. If we’re going to move, then there’s no need for us to fulfill our previous agreement."
Hearing Yecheng’s words, Cui was clearly taken aback. She then realized that if she wanted to get rid of Suya, this formidable rival, their current contractual relationship would no longer be sustainable.
According to their previous agreement, the time they pretended to be a married couple was not limited. It would continue until Cui felt it was time to end it, or they moved to another place.
Cui’s previous excuse was to maintain her reputation in the town. Since they were already planning to leave Marg Town, such an excuse could no longer stand.
"Compared to those unimportant things, you should look at this mission commission first.
Because I left in a hurry, I just grabbed a random document from in front of Miss Suya and ran. But now it looks like this mission is quite a tricky and troublesome one..."
In Marg Town, at the Adventurer’s Guild, in the Guild Master’s office.
The Guild Master, who was comfortably chatting with his secretary, thought his wife was checking up on him. He instantly tidied up his appearance with a practiced and swift motion and pushed his secretary away.
At the same time, a beautiful figure pushed the door open. To the Guild Master’s surprise, it wasn’t his fierce wife but the guild’s receptionist, Suya.
If it were any other guild staff member, the Guild Master would have already lost his temper.
But with Suya, there was nothing he could do. As the receptionist of the Adventurer’s Guild, Suya was one of the top beauties in all of Marg Town.
To put it bluntly, at least eighty percent of the adventurers in the Adventurer’s Guild considered Suya their dream girl. Without Suya, the guild’s performance would definitely drop by more than thirty percent.
The Guild Master did not overly blame Suya but reminded her to wait for a response before entering a room in the future.
"Guild Master, those things aren’t important anymore. I’ve come to resign. I plan to quit my job as a receptionist and return to being an adventurer."
Before becoming the guild’s receptionist, Suya was actually an adventurer herself and quite famous.
After hearing Cui’s words, Suya clearly realized the severity of the situation. In the stunned gazes of the adventurers in the hall, she smashed the guild counter and hurriedly ran upstairs to resign.
"Why do you suddenly want to resign? Has someone treated you unfairly in the guild? Suya, you can tell me. Which bastard is bullying you? I’ll break his legs!"
Hearing that Suya wanted to resign, the Guild Master couldn’t remain calm. As mentioned earlier, Suya brought at least a thirty percent increase in performance to the guild. To lose such an excellent and beautiful receptionist would be a significant blow.
