48 The protagonist’s mentality collapses!

At first, David was happy seeing the old man being scolded by his wife.

But as he thought more, even his face turned ugly.

He realized that if that piece of paper was not picked by him then surely it must have been picked by someone else.

Call it the protagonist’s sixth sense, he instantly thought of Elandor.

He remembered that while he was trying to impress Parul, Elandor went to the corner of the room.

He got scared!

He knew what it meant.

If Elandor used that chance then his strength would have already reached near platinum rank.

Moreover, he realised they were even given some days off by the guild after their first bronze-ranked quests were done.

Maybe Elandor used those free days to rob him of his treasure.

He clenched his fists as his teeth gritted so hard that he accidentally bit his tongue.

He felt aggrieved, he thought the strength of Elandor was only near gold rank and he along with Eve could easily kill him.

After learning that Elandor’s strength now reached Platinum rank, he knew his chances of revenge were very slim.

He suddenly felt like the world was unfair.

He wanted to cry!

He wanted to know why he was made to suffer so much.

At first, Elandor only betrayed him so the bad feelings against him were not much but later he learned even Jasmine betrayed him.

And this was not enough, Aushima and Parul too left him!

The only one responsible for his suffering was Elandor.

He could easily enjoy the bliss of harem without any effort but Elandor stole all his women.

The single thought of Elandor spending a romantic night with Aushima or Jasmine made his eyes burn with jealousy.

He realized that he had not even held arms with any of them.

He already had a bad impression of Elandor and considered him the biggest scum at the moment, the possibility that Elandor was doing something lewd to his girls made him go crazy.

He yelled loudly, “Nooooooo!”

“Elandor, so what if I am a silver rank?”

“I will hunt you, catch you and burn you alive!”

Seeing David suddenly yelling, everyone was shocked.

Before they could ask what happened to him, he quickly fell to his knees and grabbed the old man’s legs.

He begged him desperately,

“Uncle, please help me!”

To make sure the act was a success, there were already some fake tears in his eyes.

“Uncle help me, there is someone who plotted against me, that treacherous guy stole everything from me.”

“Now, I have already been declared a fugitive….I have literally lost everything that I planned so carefully over the past few years.”

“If I do not take my revenge, I am afraid I will never be at peace.”

Seeing him acting like this the old man and his wife were moved.

They helped him get up and slowly heard the entire story from his mouth.

They were shocked beyond words that a person could hide as deep as Elandor.

The old woman spoke, “Husband, we can’t let David suffer any grievances…we promised his grandfather that we will take care of him like our own grandchild!”

Upon hearing her the old man nodded.

“Yes, you are right my dear.”

“David don’t worry, with us you need not be afraid of anything.”

“Let’s go, me and your Aunt will help you kill that bad guy!”

Seeing them like this Eve was dumbfounded.

“Go now? Shouldn’t we make some preparations and plans first?”

She once again looked at the old man and his wife.

“To be honest, old people like you should stay at home…you guys will only make us worry more.”

“It’s clear that Elandor’s strength is far higher than ours!”

To be honest, her expectations were too high.

She thought these people would give them some strong magic artifacts or weapons.

She was even daydreaming about whether they can help us raise our strength.

Seeing her speaking abruptly, the old man’s face stiffened.

“David, who is this girl who dares to interrupt us?”

“Oh don’t be bothered uncle, she’s just a maid following me!”

But the old man had a serious face, “David, such maids need to be disciplined properly, otherwise they may betray their masters.”

David agreed, “Yes, you are right uncle!”

Upon hearing him, Eve felt like there were countless daggers stabbed in her heart.

She did so much for him, she even betrayed her family and risked her life to get him out of the prison but her status was just equal to a mere maid in his heart?

She felt wronged, but she suddenly saw David walking towards her.

She felt happy, she thought maybe he only said that in the spur of the moment and was now coming to coax her.

Within a few seconds, David approached her.

He looked at her and sneered.

“Didn’t I tell you to keep your mouth shut?”

“No, I was wrong… You are even more trash than a maid.”

“At least a maid can stand obediently.”

Eve was already on the verge of crying

“David no please listen to me… I am sorry, I promise I won’t disobey again.”

Before her tears could fall she saw a big hand approaching her cheeks.

-Clanked!

Eve’s eyes were in disbelief, she was slapped!

Her tears kept falling, she tried to speak but words didn’t come out.

Upon seeing her, David felt satisfied.

He was already too frustrated because of Elandor and hit her to vent out his anger.

The old man suddenly applauded.

“That’s right!”

“That’s how you discipline properly!”

David turned around.

“Uncle I know you and aunt are very strong and together we can easily kill my enemy.”

“But what’s the use of revenge which can’t be done with your own hands?”

“Is there a way for me to get strong?”

“I personally want to kill that person.”

Seeing him like this the old couple was filled with a good mood.

The old lady couldn’t help but speak.

“As expected of the grandson of the legend-ranked adventurer, the hot blood of your family runs deep in your veins.”

“Don’t worry we will increase your strength!”
