Chapter 1711 People get over their crushes soon enough, don't worry.
'Don't pin this on me. You started it.
I still can't forget how awfully you were acting, to think he fell for something like that.
Not to mention you ruined my image before I could even build it.
I couldn't believe they called me a sex fiend when the four of them surrounded me because they were eyeing my wife!
'Hahaha-'
Riona laughed.
"Tsk!
Nux snorted.
'Anyways, did you find anything good?'
Riona questioned. She already knew the fate of those four men.
Sure, Nux was calmer now, but cycing his wife in front of him? Riona didn't even have to think; that man's fate was sealed the moment he looked at her with those eyes.
What she wanted to know was if there was anything useful in their memories.
'Hmm, not much. Just learned a bit more about mercenaries. They were higher-level mercenaries than the Skeleton I killed before, so they knew a bit more!
'Im, that is alright, we don't need to know much anyway!
'Rig-'
*Bam*
Before Nux could reply, suddenly, a man stood up, his body trembling in fear as he stared at Nux. "Y-You... you are that..."
"Hmm? You know him?" Riona frowned as she glanced at the one-eyed man standing in front of her. "I don't."
Nux shook his head.
"It seems like he knows you!"
"I did sense someone looking at me when I was out-oh, wait!
Suddenly, Nux recalled who the man was.
Ile was Vajra, the one-eyed demon with special eyes who was watching Nux when he was dealing with Skeleton and his little gang.
Previously, Nux had noticed him looking at him from afar; even now, Nux knew that someone was keeping an eye on him. However, this time, he didn't bother checking who it was.
'So it was him.
A smile appeared on Nux's face.
"You really like to watch business you aren't involved in, don't you?"
Vajra's body trembled.
"No, I'll choose the first ten."
Nux spoke as he returned the papers to Arshia.
"What...? You didn't even read anything, though..."
"Why would I?
I trust you, Arshia.
The instant he said those words, Arshia's face turned red.
"A-Alright, then I will register them in your name. You can come to me as soon as you are done with
the missions."
She spoke as she quickly moved, stamping different papers left and right, writing something on a register, and handling some other formalities.
Riona, who saw her move, couldn't help but smile,
"So? What are these missions?"
"Nothing much. I need to go to some Lowest and Low Levels Worlds. Most of them require me to retrieve some artifacts. In some, I need to collect some beasts' horns and stuff. They seem easy
enough."
Obviously, Nux didn't trust the woman one bit. He read through all the missions; it's just that he did it so quickly that Arshia couldn't perceive it.
Nux's brain was currently on an entirely different level. Let alone Arshia, even Riona wasn't able to
read anything by the time Nux was done with everything. He didn't even need to look at the page; he could process everything from the bundle using his senses.
Yes, it meant that. Nux was capable of reading an entire book with a single look. He didn't even have
to flip the pages.
"You are so mean, Nux.
You lie as easily as breathing!
Riona chuckled, pitying the poor woman who had just fallen in love.
"People get over their crushes soon enough, don't worry!
Nux shrugged.
As they talked, Arshia suddenly came to them and,
"Here, these are the missions you selected. Please do them as soon as possible!"
"I will be back soon.
Nux smiled as he grabbed the papers.
"I will be waiting!" Arshia nodded, and Nux smiled again.
