Chapter 44: Cecil

Diyo which is talking to Shi Fan looked at the red-haired girl behind Shi Fan. "Is she your sister?"

"Hell nah, my sister is more beautiful than her." Shi Fan instantly interjected without a second thought.

"Hey!" the red-haired girl then attacked her with an elbow attacked.

"Your name is?" Diyo was instantly curious about the girl behind Shi Fan.

"It's Cecil sir," She said nervously as the person in front of her is one of the respected figures among the kingdom. Her eyes sparkled as if it is seeing one of the most wonderful objects in the universe.

"Cecil eh? What's your relationship with our young one here?" Diyo asked politely.

"Umm, he said that he wants to invite me to his party." Cecil replied nervously. Her legs began jittering a little.

"So that's how it is." Diyo looked at Shi Fan as he is very confused why did she invite such a young girl to her party as well as a herb seller at that, after seeing the herb pouch she is holding. "So young lady did you agree to his request?"

Shi Fan immediately looked at the girl with a menacing look as if he's afraid for his secret treasure to run away.

"Ummm..." Cecil paused a little until Diyo interrupted her.

"I'll give you a trade channel" Diyo confidently said looking at the eyes of the other merchant players.

"Deal." Cecil immediately agreed after what Diyo said. She must be very stupid if she didn't take the opportunity. The Kinyo Adventurer Team's Leader is also known as one of the 13 Saints. Their trade channels are incomparable to any other Adventurer Teams as they are most trusted because of their reputation and the only group that is greater than them in the island in terms of trade channel is the Seven Seas Miniscule Guild where their head figure King Sampem is also the Leader of 13 Saints

This is why partnering with one of these Adventurer Teams is very beneficial especially to those who focus on side jobs as their material accumulation is one of the best on the island.

"Then shall we go?" Diyo signaled for them to come closer to him under the selfish gazes of the watching alchemists, merchants, and other observing players. Diyo pulled out a green stone in his bag and chanted.

"Activate Group Recall" the area around the three began turning green as they are teleported somewhere else.

.....

6th Floor, Trade Building, Town of Empador

A green-colored door appeared in front of the Dimensional Door leading to the Kinkyo Adventurer Team office. Three figures walked from it which is Diyo, Shi Fan and the newly recruited member Cecil.

Diyo opened the Dimensional Door and raised both of his hands as if embracing someone.

"GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!" He shouted out loud as if he's using a microphone.

Shi Fan looked at the system clock and he couldn't help but smirk a little after looking at the system clock which is showing that it's 1:07 P.M.

The other members of the Adventurer Team couldn't help but also smile a little on what their leader just did. Going along even if it's a mistake they all politely bowed. "Good Morning Leader."

Diyo pridely walked downstairs still not noticing his own mistake. He checked the statuses of different raiding teams before heading into his own office.

Upon entering the office there are five people currently inside talking on the bench at the side. One of them is Tiger Tail.

"Leader." Tiger Tail stood up and bowed the moment he saw who just entered. The other four people also followed suit. One of them, however, stared deeply at Shi Fan who also just entered.

"It seems that beautiful lady is interested in you eh?" Quan Shi began teasing Shi Fan.

Shi Fan ignored his master's teasing and looked at the girl with a cold demeanor. However as he is about to talk to her, a girl with a sniper rifle behind.

"Hey, you!" FuFu from before began pointing at Shi Fan.

"Oh her? Hey Cecil someone's calling out for you." Shi Fan dodged the pointing finger of Fufu and is now directed at Cecil from behind her.

"Who me?" Cecil who was suddenly pointed at was very nervous due to her being a little bit shy.

"No the person I mean is you!" FuFu directed her nimble fingers at Shi Fan.

"Oh him? Chief someone's here to scold you" Shi Fan dodged again and stood in front of Cecil. Fufu's fingers are now pointing at Tiger Tail that is smiling on the teasing Shi Fan.

"Hahaha" the two guys from behind FuFu started laughing.

"Pheri! Asphyxia! Stop laughing!" FuFu began scolding the two individual beside her as her face became red in embarrassment. She couldn't believe that the person that teased her is their party leader for the upcoming Games.

"These people are?" Shi Fan noticed that he felt that he is currently investigated by the four that he questioned Tiger Tail which is near him.

"Oh. They're your party members" Tiger Tail spoke in a rather flat yet happy tone.

"Party? What party?" Shi Fan thought on what Party they meant as there are many Parties in the world.

"Your own Adventurer Party" Diyo tapped Shi Fan's shoulders and smiled.
