In the morning, Han Jin came down from upstairs with a yawn. He had absorbed the energy from some magic crystals and made three pieces of Thunder Charmafter coming back from the Association of Mercenaries yesterday, and before he went to bed, he pondered some things till late last night.
The others were sitting scattered in the hotel. The hotel had been booked by them and the furniture inside it could be used for free. Moxinke sat by a table alone.Opposite to him were Steelberg and Michelle. Miss Keeley sat at a corner, and Cessacioun sat nearby the counter. No Sunier.
“Where is Sunier? She didn’t come back last night?” Han Jin was surprised.
“She’s right behind you.” Cessacioun laughed.
Han Jin turned around to see Sunier coming down lightly. He noticed that her footsteps were soundless.
“Looking for me?” She asked.
“No.” Han Jin shrugged. Although it’s said that he who gets close to a good tree will have a good shade, it was not proper for them to get close to the red vanguards. Who made the red vanguards scruple was undoubtedly someone powerful. They must keep low profile to avoid troubles in this time. Mercenaries were all marblehearted. Friendship was established on the basis of interest. Mercenaries would cooperate with each other for some common goals to achieve the maximum benefit, but none of them had the time or energy to help the rookies.
To have contact with the red vanguards was by no means a good idea. On the contrary, it’s probably that Sunier would be poached by them. If this really happened, it would be a heavy blow.
Just then, the door of the hotel was kicked open. A fire-red figure rushed in. It was a young woman, slim, red-haired, and taller than Han Jin. Her soft armor was also red, making her look like a puff of raging fire. On her back, there was a giant two-handed sword, as giant as that of Moxinke’s. Usually, women would refuse to use such impressive weapon.
She was beautiful and enchanting. Sha has big eyes, high and straight nose, small and pink lips and white skin. Her figure was also hot with plump breasts and slender waist. She didn’t wear tights. White and long legs were shown between her skirt and boots.
“Moxinke!!” The woman yelled.
Moxinkeacted very calm. He looked left and right, and then said politely with his index finger pointing to his own nose: “Are you talking to me, Miss?”
The woman snorted. She strode over to him, tread her feet on the chair, and looked down at him angrily.
“My name is Azuo. Miss, you must get me wrong…”
“Don’t ever try to pretend that you don’t know me!” The woman yelled loudly and reached out her hand to grab the ear of Moxinke. Her speed was so fast, and Moxinke was slowed due to her overwhelming momentum. He failed to escape. “You grew up with me! You think I will not recognize you if you shave yourself into a duck egg?!”The woman sneered.
“You must be wrong… My name is Azuo, and these are my friends. Ask them if you don’t believe me…”
“To tell you the truth, boy, you haven’t had your long beard when you were in your teenage. Don’t think your face has changed much!” This said, the woman exerted her strength and even lifted Moxinke up: “You dare to lie to me?!”
“Keep your hand off me!” Moxinke was irritated. He grabbed the hand of the woman and made a twist. She loosened her hand involuntarily due to pain.
“You …you hit me?” She looked at Moxinke unbelievably.
“Do you know who these people are? They’re all my friends!” Moxinke yelled angrily:”Don’t treat me as a child in front of my friends again!”
The women was startled for a while and changed her tone immediately: “I am sorry. It’s all my fault.”
“What did you say?” Moxinke was going to vent all his discontents, both current and previous, but he was dumbfounded when he heard what the woman said.
“It’s my fault.Please don’t get angry with me.” She reached out her hands and grabbed the arm of Moxinke.
Han Jin and the others were all as silent as winter cicadas and waiting for a real fight between the furious woman and Moxinke. But her radical change of attitudes astonished them all.
Moxinke was still keeping a straight face. He threw off the hand of the woman heavily.
“I admit I have a bad temper, but think about my hardships.” The woman lowered her head and continued in a trembling voice: “You left without even noticing me, leaving all things to me. Do you know what I have suffered in these years? I was despised and bullied everyday. I…”She choked with sobs and started to rubbing her eyes.
“That’s enough.”Moxinke said in a muffled voice: “I haven’t seen you shedding a single drop of tear in the past ten more years, stop rubbing you eyes!”
“You are not angry with me?”She raised her head and giggled.
The others looked into each other, daring not to say any word.
“These are my friends.” Moxinke heaved a deep sigh and said: “This is Sylner, my sister, and this is Raphael…”
“Nice young man, haven’t married?” Sylner laughed: “Don’t worry, I will introduce a girl to you tomorrow…”
Before she finished her words, she was dragged by Moxinke and reeled. He shouted: “This is my friend, can you stop joking like this?!”
“I know he’s your friend, otherwise…”
“Shut up!!”
That woman closed her mouth obediently, but a few seconds later,she poked Moxinke in his waist and said in a shying way: “I love the way you are now…”
Moxinke didn’t reply, he just looked around, as if he was looking for something.
“Let me introduce myself, my name is Raphael, a prophet.”Han Jin stood up with a smile. Then Sunier, Cessacioun, and the others also introduced themselves. Sylneracted normally again and they exchanged a few greetings. Knowing that Sylner hadn’t had breakfast yet, they put two tables together and sat down, waiting for the food to be served by the owner of the hotel.
