Chapter 83: A day with Hyori

At first, when Wil found out that Cericia isn't alone as he ordered, Wil indeed got a bit angry but then when he looked at her condition with messy hair and red eyes from the lack of sleep, a laugh escaped from Wil as he commented, "Looks like you are having fun, my dear fiancée."

As soon as Cericia heard his voice, she stopped concentrating on the board and turned her head aside.

"You…" She gritted her teeth as she stood up and lunged at him like a beast as if she wants to tear him apart into pieces.

But, before it even happens, the female bodyguard grabbed her collar from behind and hold steadily, "mind your actions, princess. That's our Young master. When it concerns his safety, I won't hesitate to break your bones without having second thoughts."

While the bodyguard's actions surprised Wil, Cericia on other hand growled, "You'll pay for it once my father hears this…"

"Pfft, hahaha… he's arriving today. You can complain to him while you are on the way," replied Wil as he continued to walk towards her while the bodyguard tightly held her as Cericia prepare to attack him once more.

As he stood before Cericia, he pinched her cheek while looking into her eyes, "I should tell you that Chun Yongmin will be under the protection of Scarlet securities from now onwards.

If you dare to take any action on him even inside the game, I swear I'll buy a few guilds in your city and use them against your little Skywalkers. You see… I don't lack money. So, it's in your best interest to stay quiet until you return. 

You look hideous by the way. Go and fresh up. It won't look good in front of your dad." Then, he turned towards bodyguard, "If she doesn't, then, you make her do so."

Looking at him, Cericia thought, "This guy… changed a lot since we last saw each other. Hmpf, what can I expect from a son of a thug."

She snorted as she tried to free herself, "Hmpf, I don't need your help. Leave me. I need to sleep. Just wake up when Dad board the plane."

As Wil nodded, the female bodyguard freed her and Cericia stomped her foot as she went into her room. Looking at her back, Wil shook his head as his lips curled up, "immature girl."

Meanwhile, as Cericia closed her room and lie on the bed, she gritted her teeth in frustration, "That lady is the worst of these goons.

How dare she make me play that stupid board game for the past two days just because I threatened her that I might commit suicide out of boredom?

I was the fool who believed her that I can win against at least one game to gain my freedom. She didn't even let me win one single game… Damn, what's father thinking of colluding with these ba*****s… If I'm the police chief, I would have used all the police force and send these thugs to the prison."

In the living room, there are five architects sitting before Wil as the latter was explaining his requirements.

"Listen, you don't need to worry about the costs. So, don't hold back the creativity while thinking about it. You all just focus on the planning of the district while Aster will take care of the rest. And…"

*Ring*Ring*

Just then, his mobile phone rang…

"Hmm, Hyori?"

"Excuse me."

Wil stepped out of the flat as he lifts the call, "Hyori-ssi?"

"Williard, I'm going to ATC for my part-time. Just calling whether you are joining the training for today or…"

Only then, Wil remembered the day and time, "Ah, I forgot about it. Can you wait 15 minutes... I just woke up."

"It's fine. But, please hurry or else Master will chew me out for being late..."

Wil smiled as he disconnected the call, "I really forgot about Archery practice. I can't neglect it just because I have other work. After all, it is important."

Disconnecting the call, Wil went back inside and continued his detailed explanation so that he shouldn't be asked about it again nor they have to make a mistake.

After that, Wil let Aster take care of the contracts with the Architects and went to the garage to bring out his car.

Meanwhile, Hyori was looking at her mobile phone with a frown, "it's already been 30 minutes. I'm getting late. If I just call, it would look like I'm waiting for him. Nah, why should I? It's not like I'm the one that is practicing Archery."

Deciding not to wait any longer, Hyori left the building and started walking towards the gate. 

Just then, she heard a horn sound from her behind.

As she stepped aside to give the way, the car stopped beside her and she heard a familiar voice, "Hyori-ssi, its bad manners to ditch a person after making an appointment, you know."

She snorted as she turned aside, "and what about the manners of making a girl wait for half an hour? No, that sounded wrong… making your trainer wait…" 

Wil grinned, "Sorry about that."

As she sat inside the car, Wil commented, "you look beautiful in that dress, by the way" to which Hyori frowned, "are you trying to flirt or something?"

Wil shrugged his shoulders, "Nah, just wondering is there something going on at the training center? I mean, it's just a part-time job, right?"

Hyori looked at herself again and replied, "But, I'm the same as every week though. I regularly go out like this."

"Is that so?" Wil stared at her for a couple of seconds, "I might not have observed it last week, I guess." 

Reaching ATC together, he became the center of attention this time and was welcomed by the owner because of his extraordinary performance from last week while Wan Xue who has a crush on Hyori glared at Wil as both of them went to the training field.

Looking at the arrow that failed to hit the target placed 70 meters away, Hyori asked him, "Mr. Ravens, can we start with something small? Like 50 meters?"

Wil shook his head, "no, it is fine. I'll practice with this."

Four hours later, Hyori spoke, "now, target the space between 7 to 5."

*Swoosh* an arrow flew like lightning and struck the border between 8 and 7.

"Damn…" As Wil cursed, Hyori exclaimed, "Wow, It's close. Looks like you are a genuinely gifted archer."

As Wil snorted, "c'mon, don't kid around. What gifted archer. I wasn't able to hit the target even once", Hyori flared up in anger and cursed him inside, "you f*****g monster. It took me years of practice to get where I'm today.

Even I can't guarantee to hit every target I aimed to shoot. On the other hand, it only took you four hours to shoot a f*****g target that's 70 meters away."

In the end, she commented with a sigh, "you can just improve your skill through practice. But seriously, that's one amazing game you are playing."

Wil then looked at her and asked, "why don't you play too? Your university classes end at 1 p.m., right?"

"play War Online? No thanks."

Hearing her outright rejection, Wil asked, "why? Do you hate playing games or something? I told you this isn't a normal game."
