Chapter 26 - 25: A New Toy?

I waited for a while in the adventure guild for my teammates to arrive.

The thing I am curious about is, why there is a team assigned just for escorting a girl for her first hunting session.

As I was thinking, I was pushed aside by someone.

"Can't you see where you are going, you ruined my expensive shoes." Said the person who pushed me.

I am confused about my current situation, This guy who is standing in front of me pushed me and then he goes on to blame me for pushing him.

I have been standing here for fifteen minutes and this guy walked into me. Still, he has the audacity to say that I pushed him.

Wait I know this situation....

I ignored the guy, I didn't want to get in a fight.

He continued, as he closed the distance between us while walking slowly "That is why I hate commoners like you. Now, how will you pay for my shoes?"

"Hate is a strong word... but never mind and your shoes aren't even dirty," I said.

I finally understood the situation, this annoying guy is the Alpha. If the alpha is here then the Alpha's girlfriend should be here too.

"Why are you asking him to pay, Frank? Even if he worked his entire life, he won't be able to pay for this shoe his entire life." Said a female voice.

Ah, the Alpha's girlfriend is also here and why is she spouting such a cliché line.

And apparently, the guy's name is Frank.

I stood there silently cause I didn't know what to say. But the thing I said about how I didn't want to fight, I take that back. I want to break some face today.

"Oh, isn't that Lili. The number beauty of Goldberg city and the daughter of Jung family." Said one guy in the background, lets just name him idiot A.

"With him is the Frank the son of the Horn family. What are they doing here?" Said another as a reply to Idiot A. Let's name the second guy idiot B.

"I heard the got commission as a hunter to escort the daughter of Gerver noble family, what are they doing there fighting with a commoner?." Said Idiot A.

"He is courting his death, Frank is a B rank hunter in a such a young age. He will kill that guy." Said Idiot B.

I like how they naturally assumed that I am a commoner and also the fact that how they can't see that the only person fighting with me is this guy who's name is apparently Frank.

And of course, the background cliché character is also here.

Now only the Alpha's aka Frank's right-hand guy is remaining.

"Frank, you don't need to fight this trash. I will take care of him." Said a guy who was standing behind Frank.

Of course, Frank's right-hand guy came with him.

This is a cliché setup that I hate the most.

I opened my mouth to ask " So you are my five teammates assigned with me for the Escort commission?".

I didn't have any intention to go any further with the fight, so I changed the topic.

Don't get me wrong, usually, in this type of situation, I don't think even for a second before throwing my hand but this time I am kind of desperate and I need money from the commission.

"You are ignoring me!? You will pay for it." Frank's right-hand guy shouted.

This guy doesn't need to be so dramatic.

He rushed forward to attack me, but before he could touch me.

A voice was heard " Stop right there.".

The source of the voice was Old looking man, he wore a butler outfit. Even though I said he was old, but he wasn't that old.

Maybe near fifty years old, but he looked considerably really fit.

The guy who was going to attack me stopped, he was lucky. I already was deciding in my mind about which of his bone to break.

The man in the black butler outfit and white hair spoke " You hunters have been gathered here to escort Miss. Agata to her first Hunting section, I will be joining commission as well. This commission is a week-long and you will be paid on daily basis and If needed the commission might get extended."

Lucky me, this means a lot of money. With this amount of money, I might be able to buy higher-grade Amrit fruit. I hope this will save Annie, I really do.....

24-2

After that, we were taken to the mansion of the Werner family. The entrance of the mansion was huge, as we passed the entrance a huge building stood in front of us. The architecture of the mansion was glorious on its own.

It kind of reminded me of the mansion I used to live in as a kid, it's kind of giving me a nostalgic feeling.

As I was appreciating the architecture, I heard an unpleasant voice behind me.

"That's what I like to see, commoner, losing their reality when they have met a slight fraction of our richness." This was Lily, Alpha's Girlfriend aka Frank.

I chuckled to myself.

"What are you laughing at?" she asked.

"Are you sure you want to know?" I said with a sneer.

She didn't say anything in reply, but I continued "I just remembered that you are the daughter of the Jung family, last time I was heard about the Jung family was years ago. I heard you guys are fallen noble family and I also heard that you guys aren't even considered noble at this point."

I took a brief pause before saying " So I just found it funny, how you are mocking me for being a commoner and you yourself are nothing more than a commoner."

Her face instantly got red.

She tried to speak containing her anger "You….. You…. I will not forget you, I will get you beat up by Frank after we are done with this commission."

The way she tried to speak while containing her anger was cute.

"Threatening with your boyfriend's name isn't going to work, he isn't that scary or strong. If I had to say, he is more of a clown." I said while placing my finger on my chin to look like I am saying something serious.

"He is not my boyfriend!" she exclaimed.

I thought this commission would be boring, but I think I just found out a good time pass for myself.. I will tease her throughout the commission, this is going to be interesting.
