237 Volume 5 Prologue

Today was not a good day for Noelle again.

Her ally, the Traveler Ray, mistreated her this day just like what he did on the days before.

As for her co-Companion Vera, she did nothing to stop Ray at all, as she only watched as Noelle got cursed at by Ray.

"Stupid little girl. When will you learn to not mess up?" Noelle heard Ray muttering these words to himself as he could be visibly seen shaking his head. "I told you to buy two jars of sugar! But what you brought back was two sacks of sugar! Is your hearing impaired?"

"Ah um no…" Noelle stuttered as he looked down. "I… just misheard it."

"You misheard it? Ha! There goes your usual excuse again!" Ray shouted out as he glared at Noelle. "Will you really always mishear every thing that I tell you? You seem to be just screwing with me!"

"I swear in the name of the Emperor that I am not lying!" Noelle declared as she tried staring at Ray directly. "If I am lying, then the Emperor is free to strike me down!"
