Chapter 43 Ch 43 : Girls Talk

Eva's room, A special penthouse that was only allocated to the few most talented students in Orion Academy.

"…."

"…."

"Haha…"

Three people were sitting in a circle, watching each other silently.

No one knew how they got into this situation. But one thing is for sure, Eva who was sitting in the middle, was red all over her face.

It all started with what Eva said as a joke.

'Since we are all here, should we have a little sleepover? Our friend Luna here obviously has a lot of explaining to us'

Anyone could tell that Eva was just joking. But for Aurum, who was the dense protagonist with protagonist luck, absolutely didn't think so.

It was his first time going on a sleepover with a friend, and he was thrilled by it that he had forgotten that two of his friend here were girls.

And as for Luna, she was just getting dragged here by Eva.

In reality, Eva was not prepared at all to receive guests in her place. Heck, the two even needed to wait for a while outside as Eva was cleaning her messy place.

"*Cough* Anyone wants a drink?"

"No thanks."

Unable to endure the awkward atmosphere, Eva tried to offer something which unfortunately, everyone here had refused.

Of course, the drink was not alcohol, and it was just orange juice. Still, the awkward atmosphere was not able to be lifted yet.

After that, another 10 minutes of silence continued. And only then does Eva begin to have an interesting idea.

Her eyes shifted at Luna, who still stared in front of her dazedly.

When the dazed Luna saw this, she felt a chill on her spines. Yet there's no way she couldn't escape now, right?

"Ne- Luna, I want to ask."

Eva opened her mouth.

" You… are you and that Cade in that kind of relationship?"

*Burst*

Luna had just almost burst the drink that she was just about to put in her mouth.

It was a vague question, but Luna certainly knew what Eva was referring to, and her face immediately turned red.

" You.. what do you mean by that?"

" Well, looking at how concerned you are about him, isn't it natural for me to ask?"

At Eva's nonchalant answer, Luna could only scorn secretly on her heart.

However, she also knew what Eva was talking about.

She and Cade was just friend… wait.. it was even not clear whether they were friends or not.

Looking from the other's perspective, wasn't Cade trying to avoid her while she continuously tried to shorten the distance between them?

*Blush*

Now that she looked back into it, it was pretty justifiable that others might think she and Cade were in a secret relationship.

Smoke had almost come out of Luna's head as she tried to make a justification.

Yet, there's one thing she perfectly knew.

Best

Even though the feeling she currently harbored toward Cade was not loved or anything like that, it was a lie if she wasn't attracted to Cade.

Just like any other woman on our original earth, that mysteriousness from Cade was somehow able to get her interested.

And while the two were currently having their girl talks, Aurum could only sit from afar while watching the two.

' …. I really couldn't join the girl talk, couldn't I?'

. . . . . . . . .

" *Sneeze* Someone must be talking about me once again. Hopefully, it is a group of a beautiful girls."

In his own dormitory, Cade was currently browsing the internet.

His last battle had told him that there was a need for him to at least quickly reach Rank (V) or (VI) if he wanted to be safe.

He was not the protagonist who could fight over rank easily. Therefore, his only option was to overpower the enemy both in rank and strength.

As of now, he was browsing two things.

Arcane Card's equipment which could be used alongside Arcane Card to boost its strength and as a way to make more money as the Arcane Card Equipment was far from cheap.

Actually, he first thought about drawing *one Piece or even Naruto. Yet after realizing that he had no talent in drawing, Seth eventually decided to give up.

Nevertheless, it was not like Cade was not without any solution. After browsing for some time, Cade really couldn't find any other way on the internet, and therefore he had decided to do his original idea, and that was to sell some of Grigory's knowledge.

Let's be honest. The most terrifying thing about Grigory was neither his strength nor weird personallity. It was the knowledge that was hidden in Grigory.

Just imagine having a library worth of more than millions of books. That was how Cade feeling about Grigory right now.

However, Cade had yet knew that the last time he used Grifory's power to handle the man has left an imense recupersion to him.

Just when he was about to place his phone to his desk and going to sleep, Cade suddenly noticed something strange.

" Weird… how could this be."

For some reason, Cade felt like the left side of his view was getting worse.

He had experimented a few times, and the more he observed it, the more it was clear to him that his left eyes was getting worse with every seconds passed.

At first it was just a little bit blurry, but now it felt like without a thick glasses, Cade couldn't really see anything.

And when he thought everything couldn't get any worse, Grigory's voice suddenly resounded throughout his mind.

" Hyahahahah, what are you worrying for? Wasn't it just a small price to pay so that you could use this lord Grigory's power?"
