Chapter 67:Before the Party Part 1/2

Now it was a Friday morning and Adryan right now was at the hunting club with Grievius at the shooting range having some coffee.

This Thursday had passed without much problem, the only thing that had happened was that he visited Sasha and Nathan to see how they were, he found out that Sasha, apart from feeling somewhat tense when she was with Father Utravsky, there was no other problem.

That tension that Sasha had felt was entirely due to the fact that it would be the subconscious suppression that Father Utravsky released towards the lower-sequence beyonders of the same path.

Leaving that aside, there hadn't been any other special events during Thursday so it had passed without any other problems.

Returning to the present together with Adryan and Grievius these two were chatting about the party tomorrow.

"Then what is your opinion on the club party Mr. Grievius?"

"Brat as long as there's free food I'll be there I couldn't care less about the rest" Grievius said with a smile as he drank from his cup.

"Typical of you" was Adryan's response, who shook his head slightly, although he had the same idea as Grievius to a certain extent, although another part was curiosity as to whether the so-called Dutch Willson really had the remains of a rare creature.

"You said so brat" he exclaimed as he raised his mug high before taking a long sip.

"Although I also hoped that you would try to get a date with some lady"

Choking slightly, Grievius just glared slightly at Adryan who had a smirk as she looked at him.

"Look who says it, tell me how old are you?"

Sensing where this was going, Adryan kept a small smile as he answered.

"I am 21 years old Mr. Grievius"

"Then take advantage and join a lady at the party maybe you can finally wet your pants."

'You asked for it old man' was all that Adryan thought before answering.

"I'm sorry Mr. Grievius but your mother isn't attending the party so she won't be able to help me with that."

At this response, a vein appeared on Grievius's forehead before he calmed down and then let out a loud laugh.

"Every time you get better at this, it won't be long before you reach me" Grievius said with some sense as he watched the redhead.

Not giving much importance to this, the redhead decided to continue pressing the pedal of the truck.

"It would be a shame if I couldn't catch up with someone your age, Mr. Grievius."

"You brat, you're looking for it now"

A laugh tore out of Adryan at Grievius's angry expression that now looked as though a vein was about to burst.

It didn't take long for Grievius to calm down and join Adryan in laughing as he picked up his cup of coffee.

The redhead, understanding the game, also raised his cup and the two of them clinked them together and took a deep sip of the hot coffee as if they were pirates drinking rum at a party on their ship.

After a while they managed to calm down and returned to that comfortable silence while both of them looked at the ceiling as if it were the most interesting thing in the world.

"Brat, would you like to compete again in who gives the most shots at the target."

With a dangerous smile, Adryan jumped up from his chair as he headed to his place.

"I always like some competition Mr. Grievius"

Since breaking his rib he hadn't had any reason to use his revolver and Grievius's challenge had no doubt motivated him to accept.

There shouldn't be any problem since his rib was almost completely healed.

"I hope you don't lose as horribly as last time," Grievius continued with a smile as he pulled his revolver from its holster and took his place next to Adryan.

"This time I'm going to beat you old man" replied the redhead as he prepared to shoot.

"After 24 shots we'll see who has the best aim, ready brat?" Grievius asked with a smirk.

"Always" Adryan replied with the same smirk.

*BANG* *BANG* BANG*

Grievius did not speak again but responded by firing his revolver with speed.

*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*

The redhead was not far behind and also fired his quick shots at the target that was 50 meters away.

*BANG BANG BANG*

*BANG BANG BANG*

The only sound that echoed throughout the firing range was the sound of shots from Adryan and Grievius as well as the sound of shell casings falling to the ground as they quickly reloaded their revs to quickly fire again.

It went on like this for another short while before the shots stopped and the smell of gunpowder filled the place where Adryan and Grievius were standing.

Smoke billowed from their revolving cannons as they had big smiles on their faces.

'This is too relaxing, I wish I had gone to the most modern shooting ranges to be able to test the Glock,' Adryan thought, but that didn't mean that this had been one of the most fun he had done so far.

After that he turned to look at Grievius who still had a sharp smile as he emptied his revolver again and pointed to his target with his hand.

Thanks to the fact that they were both at least sequence 8, their senses were sharp enough to be able to see the details of their targets despite the distance.

Looking and counting his target and Grievius's, the redhead couldn't help but sigh but still kept his smile.

"Better luck next time brat"

Were Grievius's words as he patted Adryan's shoulders before leaving the field with a slight whistle.

The result had been...

Adrian 21/24

Grievius 24/24

"Next time I'm going to beat you Mr. Grievius"

Grievius just gave him the middle finger as he continued up the stairs keeping his whistle.

Shaking his head, Adryan emptied his revolver as well before reloading it, then storing it in its holster under his left armpit.
