Chapter 25: Troublemakers.

Felix looked surprised as he saw the two guys he met in the corridor this morning.

The guy who was pointing at him had dark green hair and he seemed to make fun of his friend next to him who was the guy that stopped Felix from going to the dining hall.

His friend gritted his teeth when he saw the boy who ignored him this morning, because of which his friend made fun of him for the whole day.

"You punk. It was all because of you."

His eyes red from anger, the boy strode toward Felix and stopped just a step away.

With his face right before him, he spoke from between his teeth.

"You don't know what I have suffered."

Felix looked really surprised at the turn of events. One moment he was sitting casually on the sofa and the other moment a guy was suddenly in front of him threatening.

"What the hell does that got to do with me?"

Hearing the nonchalant voice of the boy, he felt his head spinning from anger as he raised his hand to cast a spell.

"Fireba-"

But before he could continue, he felt a chill run down his spine as a huge pressure seem to descend on him.

"Eric."

"You should stop what you're doing."

A cold and alluring voice sounded as Miss Elsa stood behind the boy named Eric and held his shoulder.

Feeling the strength from her hands and the terrifying force within her body, he fell down on his knees and started gasping for breath.

"I-I'm s-sorry, it w-was by m-mistake."

He stuttered out as he could not resist the cold mana that she was releasing onto him that made his bones freeze.

Felix could not help but gulp at the strange scene as he felt that he had finally come across the different powers of a mage.

'Is this the power of a mage from the 'mage cultivation' section?'

The pressure of force ceased as Elsa removed her hand and stopped using her mana.

"If you do that again, then you'll be met with punishment. Do you agree?"

"Y-Yes Miss Elsa, I won't ever do that again."

She shook her head with a tired expression and sighed.

"That's the 16th time you're saying that."

Turning her head back to the dark green-haired boy, she warned him.

"And you Steve, if you rile him up again, I'll cut that tongue of yours."

Her eyes gleamed dangerously as she did not want to take a 'no' as an answer.

Steve just put both of his hands on his mouth and shook his head rapidly as he just wanted to run away from there. T/his chapter is updated by nov(ê(l)biin.co/m

"I won't do that! I won't!"

At her commanding orders, the two troublemakers were pulled away by Roven who waved at Felix with a tired smile.

"Bye Felix, try not to get in trouble with them."

The silver-haired boy awkwardly waved at them and turned toward Miss Elsa who was walking to her desk.

He stood in front of her and asked what she wanted to talk about.

"What is it that you wanted to tell me, Miss Elsa."

The receptionist paused for a second and told him as she slightly grinned.

"Noah and his friends wanted to give a welcome party at the Joyous Tavern and they asked me to inform you about it."

Felix eyes widened at what she said, he couldn't help but feel delightful in his heart when he remembered Noah and others.

"Are you serious? A welcoming party, that too just for me?"

She chuckled at him and thought how cute he looked at the surprise that the others gave him. Nodding, she replied.

"Yes, just for you. Tonight for dinner, you have to get ready and go there."

Felix bobbed his head in excitement as he wanted to taste what other foods the city had.

"If that's so, I'll get ready and come back in a jiffy."

Without waiting for a reply from her, he ran up the stairs and went to his room.

*****

Half an hour later.

Felix walked out of his room fully cleaned and fresh after taking a nice hot bath in the washroom.

"Haa...that felt good. To think I forgot to take a bath after that tiresome mission."

Now wearing a new set of clothes, a maroon T-shirt with a v-shaped neck and cream color pants. He looked handsome with his clean and shining silver hair.

He came down the stairs and entered the hall. Standing at the reception desk, he called out.

"Miss Elsa, I'm ready."

She raised her head and nodded at the now good-looking boy.

"It seems you're going to woo some ladies out there."

Felix just blushed at her compliment and handed his map to her.

"This, please mark the place called Joyous Tavern."

Elsa raised her brow at his awkward face but chuckled when she remembered he was still new to the city. Taking the map, she marked some places for a minute and gave it back to him.

"Take this, I have also marked some other places that can be of use to you. And have a nice party."

"Thank you, Miss Elsa, I'm going."

He bid her bye and walked out of the guild building.

Staring at the map in his hand with many new directions and marks while exiting the gate, he smiled.

"Now, I won't get lost."
