Chapter 153 Comet (2)

Chapter 153 Comet (2)

***

"You... you... you're kidding me, right?" Alec stammered: "400,000 gold coins... I... I owe 400,000 gold coins?"

"That's right." The female receptionist nodded, her eyes full of seriousness, without the slightest expression that she was joking with him: "Do you think I'm joking with you?"

"Ack!" Alec saw the serious female receptionist and immediately knew something very bad had happened: "I... I mean... I don't know what happened."

The female receptionist raised her chin towards Rolen and said: "You don't know, but she knows. The quests she accepted all failed and even caused a lot of damage to the quest giver and the adventurer center."

Hearing that, Alec opened his mouth: "This... Is there some misunderstanding here? I... she... she is an assassin... ack! What I mean is..."

Alec stammered because he didn't know what to say or explain.

"I don't care who she is." The female receptionist shook her head and said: "I only care about whether she completed the task or not."

"If you don't believe me, I can read some of the quests she accepted and the quest contents." New novel chapters are published on

The female receptionist took out a piece of paper from the stack, then read: "F-rank mission, find a lost cat of a Marquis."

Hearing Rolen receive an F-rank mission, Alec did not feel strange. After all, the rank of his adventurer ID card is only Bronze, so he can only accept low-level quests."

The female receptionist continued reading: "Mission reward: 50 gold coins; time needed to complete: 3 days."

Alec nodded. After all, it was just a low-level mission—finding a lost cat. He didn't believe an assassin like Rolen would fail.

"According to the report, during the search, that girl... hm... Rolen, 'accidentally' caused that cat to die. Besides, she also injured 15 people and collapsed two houses."

"The total cost that needs to be compensated is more than 40,000 gold coins."

Alec: "..."

He felt that Rolen had done something impossible. A quest worth only 50 gold coins turned into a debt of over 40,000 gold coins.

"What have you done, Rolen?" Alec's voice was filled with coldness.

Rolen now stood with her head bowed; she held the corner of his shirt and continuously rubbed it while stammering: "I... while chasing that cat, it ran into a small casino."

"Those men inside that casino... They wanted to harass me, so I..."

"Is that why you beat them?" Alec held his forehead and said angrily.

"But... they wanted to harass me; I can't just let them do it."

Alec shook his head: "You just need to run away. In the end, you injured them and destroyed two houses. Do you consider me a noble?"

Rolen pouted; her eyes were wet as if she were about to cry. She was harassed by other men, and Alec did not protect her but scolded her.

"There's more." The female receptionist took another piece of paper and continued: "She accepted a Rank F mission, cleaning the flower garden for an Earl. The quest reward is 100 gold coins."

"She... destroyed the entire flower garden and burned forty special flowers; the total damage amounted to 37,000 gold coins."

Alec: "..."

"You... what the hell did you do?" Alec looked at Rolen with eyes filled with anger.

"I.. I don't know, I just lit a lamp and I don't understand why the lamp fell on the grass." Rolen tried to explain.

The plan that this female receptionist proposed was extremely reasonable. Even though he had to pay 90% of the bonus for debt repayment purposes, at least he still had 10% of the money left.

"Well... do you agree?"

Hearing that, Alec nodded slightly: "I agree."

After going through a few procedures, Alec was finally able to get his adventurer ID card back.

He took Rolen out and looked up at the sky, feeling a bit desperate.

"You disappoint me, Rolen."

Alec said, his voice was extremely cold, angry, and it carried a bit of murderous intent.

However, his feelings were justified. Suddenly, a huge debt fell on him, anyone in his position would be angry.

Rolen bowed her head, feeling extremely confused. It must be known that when she was in the 'Dark Cloud' organization, she performed many missions of extremely high difficulty.

Regardless, she completed those tasks flawlessly.

But when she arrived here, even for the simplest tasks, Rolen didn't understand why things were out of her control.

It even caused many extremely terrible consequences, causing Alec's adventurer ID card to be locked and incurring a huge amount of debt.

However, what disappointed Rolen the most was... Alec was her master, but he didn't defend her, on the contrary, he blamed her.

Rolen wanted to return to 'Dark Cloud', but she couldn't because orders had been given. From the moment she received orders, Alec was her master.

Rolen bowed her head and said: "Sorry, master..."

"I find it very difficult to understand, it's just very simple tasks, it's okay if you can't complete them. But... not only did you fail to complete your mission, you also caused many disasters." Alec said annoyed.

"You... are you a comet? You brought me so much bad luck, what do you want me to do?"

Rolencould only bow her head and listen as she was being scolded.

Seeing her bow her head and say nothing, Alec felt even more uncomfortable. But he must try to control this anger, otherwise, he is afraid that his 'daisy' will be torn apart at once.

"Master, watch out!"

Rolen suddenly saw a carriage speeding towards them. She immediately pushed Alec aside.

The carriage jumped onto the sidewalk and then ran into the distance as if it were crazy.

Rolen saw the carriage leaving and breathed a sigh of relief, while thinking to herself: 'Hehehe... I just saved my master once, surely he won't be angry with me again.'

Rolen turned his head and saw Alec sitting on the ground, his face turned white, then turned red, then purple.

Alec widened his eyes, and opened his mouth wide, his body trembling violently. Blood from his 'daisy' began to spill out, startling Rolen: "Ack! Master, you..."

Right at this moment, from the sky, a stone crashed down at a crazy speed.

BAM!

The stone hit Alec's head; the impact was so strong that Alec was thrown more than five meters away, and he lay unconscious on the ground.

Blood from his head and 'daisy' spilled out on the ground, making Rolen extremely scared.

"Master!"

She looked at the black and white stone lying on the ground and angrily picked it up: "Master is unconscious because of you; go away!"

Rolen threw the stone into the sky; the force was so strong that it turned into a beam of light that flashed in the sky and then disappeared.
