Chapter 11: First Meeting
Although I was very unhappy, it seemed like this was all I could do.
Luo Qixi glanced at the teacher who didn't respond, then pursed her lips and nodded.
As Lokishi lit a fire with her staff, the two groups of strangers sat together.
"Let me introduce myself. We are the Black Wolf Fang Squad. I am Alina Lige," the elf said first. "That smug guy is Paul, he is the captain."
"The dwarf is Tarhand."
"The orc is Gillenor."
Following Alina Lijie's introduction, Luo Qixi exchanged glances with the others, then nodded and said somewhat nervously, "My name is Luo Qixi."
"And then she... she is Ms. Catherine Silvania..."
"A lady?" Paul blinked. "Doesn't she look about your age?"
"Ah..." Upon hearing this, Luo Qixi subconsciously looked at the teacher, afraid that the teacher would do something because of her impolite words. But to her surprise, the teacher did not say a word. She sat alone in the corner with her head down, seemingly having no intention of communicating at all.
"She's also a demon..." After thinking for a long time, Luo Qixi could only answer like this.
"I understand." Paul nodded knowingly. "It's indeed quite clever for underage demons to band together..."
"We're all adults now!" Luo Qixi couldn't help but retort immediately, and it was fortunate that she had heard too many such words... If it were in the past, Luo Qixi would have already been unable to resist teaching this frivolous person a lesson.
However, strictly speaking, teachers are not adults...
And aren't you a child too?
Loki stared at Paul.
Although Paul looks tall and quite handsome, a closer look reveals that he is only thirteen or fourteen years old!
Meeting Loki's gaze, Paul suddenly gave a strange smile: "Ah... Miss Loki, I'm not a child... I'm already an adult..."
"Alright, Paul, don't make things worse." It was the elf who stepped in to smooth things over. She interrupted Paul's nonsense and looked at Lokishi slowly, saying, "Let's get back to the commission, Miss Lokishi."
The elf's slightly more respectful tone made Loki nod; she had come for a request after all.
"Can we see your request?" the elf asked. "We'll show you ours too."
As she spoke, she took out a letter of authorization and handed it to Luo Qixi.
Loki glanced at them briefly... their request was the same as hers... five Rasta Bears...
This looks like a cleanup mission assigned by the Adventurers' Guild...
"Our requests seem to be the same..." Paul raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong with Keith... Didn't he say at the beginning that no one would answer?"
"Perhaps the Adventurers' Guild issued a lot of commissions before he took on the role," Tarhand said slowly.
"Then I'll kick his ass when I get back."
Upon hearing Paul's words, Loki rolled her eyes slightly... Although he's quite handsome, he's surprisingly vulgar...
"I just counted..." At this moment, the elf spoke up, diverting Loki's attention back: "There are four Rasta bear corpses here."
"It's obvious they can't even fulfill a single team's request."
"How about this..." Alina Liz said slowly, "Our team is currently lacking a mage, would you be willing to temporarily join us... and hunt Rasta Bear together?"
"We will give you five after we complete the commission."
It was obvious that the members of Black Wolf Fang had already discussed it privately, and no one objected to Alina Lige's suggestion.
As for Luo Qixi... she looked at the teacher.
"..." The teacher kept her head down and remained silent...
Ah, it's not that there's no movement... She slightly raised her head and exchanged a glance with Luo Qixi.
Then he lowered his head again.
It's quite obvious... the teacher meant that I was free to do as I pleased.
that……
Luo Qixi felt that she didn't need to refuse, after all, completing the commission alone was unlikely for her, and they were all very skilled adventurers.
If we follow them, we can definitely complete the task, right?
If you complete the assignment, the teacher will give you a reward.
Without thinking for long, Luo Qixi nodded: "I have no problem..."
"But in terms of time..."
"You can arrange the time as you see fit, even if it's more than one night." Sidlin, who hadn't spoken until now, finally spoke, and her cold voice made the members of Black Wolf Fang subconsciously swallow.
Cinderella's silence wasn't due to shyness... she was simply too lazy to talk to strangers, and she was also observing Loki's handling of the situation, as well as the adventurers...
The somewhat frivolous swordsman at the head and the elf were both high-level swordsmen... the dwarf was harder to judge and might be a magic user... while the orc swordsman who spoke the least was probably the most powerful among them.
Sidlin had seen the way she held her sword before... it was the starting stance of the Sword God's Flowing Light Katana... in other words, she was a Sword King.
Interesting... I never expected that among the adventurer party that Luo Qixi randomly encountered would be a Sword God Sword King.
While Cinderella was deep in thought, Loki had already made a pact with the Black Wolf Fang, who had recovered from his shock.
With a slight handshake between her and Paul, the cooperation was considered complete.
"So why did you choose to operate at night?" Paul asked casually as they walked, looking somewhat bored while everyone else was busy tracking.
Luo Qixi pursed her lips without answering, but instead asked, "Why did you choose to operate at night?"
"Because Rasta bears are easier to hunt at night." Paul chuckled and shrugged. "Looks like you guys feel the same way."
"Um."
totally different.
Ever since I started working with this teacher, I feel like I've lied quite a bit...
"So what's your team's name?" Paul asked, looking like a curious child.
"It has no name."
We are not a team...
"How can you do without a name?" Paul said, pursing his lips. "You need a catchy name to be an adventurer, right?"
I didn't really feel that the Black Wolf's Fang was making a loud noise... Of course, these thoughts of Luo Qixi's were all just muttered to herself.
"Oh, right, I forgot to ask, what type and level of mage are you?"
"High-level water magic." Loki only mentioned one type of magic, being cautious when speaking to outsiders.
"And... what about that lady?" Paul looked at Catherine, who was at the back of the group and hadn't said a word.
"she……"
"Superior Water Element," Catherine replied coldly to Paul, then continued, "Mr. Paul... you'd better focus more on the mission."
Catherine's somewhat cold words immediately made the previously familiar atmosphere within the team awkward.
After a brief silence, Paul shrugged and said jokingly, "We're a team now... it's not a big deal to know each other a little bit."
Catherine did not answer, but only gave a slight, cold laugh.
The race she dislikes the most is probably humans, and the person she dislikes the most is probably a frivolous person like Paul... and his blood... even through skin and blood vessels, she knows she definitely doesn't like it.
She always had this attitude towards people she didn't like.
The teacher is really... aloof...
Luo Qixi originally thought she was not very good at communicating with people, but now it seems that the teacher is even less good at it... or rather, is he just too lazy to communicate?
Just then, Alina Lige slightly raised one hand, signaling everyone to stop.
"There are traces here..." she said slowly, bending down. "Traces of the Rasta Bear..."
"But something's strange..."
"Hmm?" Her words puzzled both Loki and Paul.
They both instinctively walked over to Alina Lige's side.
These are definitely Rasta bear footprints... Loki is certain... but these footprints are a bit... too big, aren't they?
It was almost as big as her head!
Are there really such large Rasta bears?
