Killer

Chapter 31: Killer

Michu, Yumi, and Sandra were together.

The two ladies had already seen the picture of victorious Michu and soldiers, so they wanted to hear it about him personally. In Michu's territory and his house, Venomous and Sandra took the bed and sat down next to each other.

Michu took the chair for himself before them and swung himself on it back and forth.

He nearly fell off, but it was rather due to his excitement as he talked about what exactly had happened in the mine.

Venomous said, "In other words, you took soldiers with yourself and went for the solo quest." Her bland tone and lack of emotions stopped Michu who had been expecting praise from her, "Aren't you ahead of us in level? Good work… But there is one flaw."

"What flaw?" Michu asked, but Venomous didn't say anything. She stood silent and just looked at him without expressing herself in any other way. It made Michu sad as he just wanted to hear something else.

Though 'Good work' was also a kind of praise, it was said differently and in a worse mood.

Michu glanced at Sandra but she also didn't say anything. Both his friends stood quiet as if teamed up against him.

This forced the monke to let out what he had been expecting bluntly, "I wanted to hear praise! I worked so hard and even though the process wasn't great, we did it! I learned a lot and had fun too!"

Yumi didn't respond, so Michu added, "I want a kiss on the cheek!" He crossed his arms, raised his chin, and waited for a kiss as it was an appropriate reward for his deed, or at least that was what Carlos told him.

Venomous glanced to the side, stood up, and unsheathed her sword, "That's the flaw." She pointed her sword at the window, "Get out, you old fuck. Let me claim those remaining teeth of yours." The flaw was that Michu had spent time alone with the soldiers, so they would surely pass some unnecessary ideas to him!

Who would ask a friend for a kiss as a reward? Of course, a person who had another goal in mind! Was Michu such a person? Though honest, he didn't try to engage in a relationship so Yumi baited him out to spit out the truth.

Now that she learned what happened between him and the soldiers wholly, Venomous' sword took off and she began to chase after Carlos who had been running with everything he got already.

"Snake! Snake! Snake on my way!" His words rippled through the whole forest.

Sandra commented, "That's too bold, Michu! You can't ask for a kiss like that. It would be more appropriate if you both completed the quest together. By then, maybe you would get closer and become a pair? Though cliche, fighting together can lead to fulfilling development. It would be like a scene out of a novel and women like that… At least I would like that, I think."

"I can't get into a relationship, because I am poor and it would be sad for my partner," Michu said while caressing his chin. He would be a bad partner because he couldn't even afford a proper meal for himself in real life, so what could he possibly offer to his other half?

Though they weren't exactly his words, Michu understood them.

The witch just nodded and cheered him on, "You can go to the city and try to speak with farmers. I think you could try your luck with the royal ones. The ones that provide food for the royal lineage, you know?"

"Hmm! I will try my luck!" Michu nodded.

"Good luck! I am cheering for you!" Sandra already had an appointment with Venomous and Lazy Bum for some quests so that they could get subclass as well. It was initiated by Yumi and she returned with content on her face.

Her eyes hovered on Michu, "If every player could get a kiss by killing a monster, then you wouldn't see disappointed virgins on the streets." She smiled weirdly and caressed Michu's cheek instead, "Work harder and your reward will be more satisfying."

Michu nodded a few times, already satisfied with her hand caressing him. He didn't expect that to feel good, "Do you want me to caress your cheek too? It feels good."

"Haha!" Sandra burst out laughing at these words while Venomous turned heals.

She replied, "You have rough hands." The party of three left Michu's house and went on a journey to the city, "Did you report about your quest to Lord Fabian?"

"I didn't! But Carlos said that soldiers will pass the message. I think we can see him soon! I wonder how happy he will look! Haha!"

"Shouldn't you think of rewards? At least ask for one," Venomous reminded, then smiled due to her friend, "We can try to reach the royal farmer through the grand master I am in contact with. He often tells me I have talent, but he is more likely charmed by my eyes."

"The usual color of poison is green and you often can scare people with your eyes, so I can see him getting swayed by you, Venomous," Sandra spoke, but she didn't doubt Yumi's achievements in poison. The Snake already made poison potion without subclass, so this told enough.

The party was on its way to the beginner city. It was far away, so a lot of time passed with them clearing up pests on their way. The situation began to change when one of the carriages suddenly stopped next to them.

The person with a high level hopped from it and called Venomous out, "Yumi? Is that you?"

The man had fair looks accentuated by high-quality armor and a big ax on his back. He looked like a bloody executioner with red being the primary color on him.

He glanced at Yumi, then at Michu and Sandra, then a wide smile spread on his face. "You two should give up on her. This woman is a killer."

"A killer?" Michu asked.

"Yeah, a killer that has killed her sister in real life."
