Chapter 106: Unexpected Situation
"What! They both disappeared a month ago!" Alex exclaimed loudly with a shocked expression.
"Yes, they both disappeared a month ago. Do you know anything about them?" Maurice inquired, watching his shocked expression.
"Grandpa, I met them a week ago," Alex replied with a pale face, as if he met a ghost.
"What? You met them a week ago? Then why didn't you report to the guild? Their portraits are hanging on the missing boards," Maurice asked with a frown, making him more scared.
Watching this, Karina shook her head.
"Grandpa, he probably didn't even bother to look at the missing board, thinking it has nothing to do with him. Because of this, he didn't know they were missing," she explained with a sigh.
He was probably afraid of getting dragged into something troublesome, so he didn't look.
Li Wei, who was watching, almost gave Alex a thumbs up. He was just like him, not giving a shit about any unrelated persons.
"Humph, whose fault do you think it is?" Maurice snorted at Karina and turned to Alex.
"Say, how did you meet them?" he inquired.
Alex nodded with fear and hurriedly explained.
He met them in a deserted place alone where they asked him about his sister because they have a crush on her.
He didn't tell them anything and left while asking them to not have any thoughts of her.
Karina smiled after hearing him.
'Maybe I shouldn't beat him too much; he is a lovely brother after all,' she muttered in her mind looking at him.
Li Wei also saw her smile, but after noticing her eyes, he became stunned.
'It's love. Don't tell me she got a crush on Alex, her little brother!' he exclaimed in his mind.
He was very familiar with this look as Li Xin gave him time to time.
So there was no doubt she has a little brother complex.
Just as they both were busy in their thoughts, Maurice and Alex didn't notice it because they were both dense.
"So it's like this," Maurice nodded, hearing him, and woke up David and Joe.
"Ugh!" they both groaned in pain and opened their eyes.
"Where... where is this?" Joe muttered, feeling pain in his abdomen where blood was flowing out little by little.
"This is my house, so what are you doing here?" Maurice asked, his aura and temperament changing, making the room temperature drop.
"Ah, guild... guild master!!" They both exclaimed loudly as their faces became ugly.
"Yes, I am the guild master. May I know the reason why you sneaked into my granddaughter's room? Also, you have a very good artifact, right?" Maurice smiled coldly as he took out black rings from their fingers.
Li Wei, who was watching this, used his Analyze Eye without hesitation.
–––
Name: Evasion Ring | Type: Rare
Level: 100
Use: Can evade city and scanning system.
–––
'It can evade anything under level 100,' Li Wei thought, suppressing his shock, and looked at Maurice.
"So, tell me where did you get this?" Maurice asked coldly.
"Humph, even if I told you, what can you do? Just wait; your ending, no, the world's ending is coming soon, and you won't even be able to do anything. Hahahaha," Joe burst into laughter after saying this and looked at David with a meaningful glance.
"God of Destruction, bless us!!" They both shouted in unison, and suddenly a dark evil aura came from their bodies.
"They are going to explode!" Karina shouted, her eyes widening.
Maurice's expression also changed watching this; he wanted to stop them, but it was already late.
"Damn it!" he shouted and hurriedly casted protective shields on everyone inside the villa.
Li Wei, who was watching this, almost cursed for getting involved in trouble for nothing.
"Hahahaha, Guild Master, do you really think your puny shield could stop us?" David laughed loudly as he took out a black mana crystal.
"Bastard!!" Maurice cursed out loud and prepared to escape with everyone.
The things he was holding is cursed mana crystal which have effects to corrode mana and make it out of control.
It wouldn't work on him, but to Alex and others who are low levels, they will definitely become bedridden for a few months if they came in contact with cursed mana.
"Hahaha, die, guild master!" David laughed again and was about to crush the crystal when someone appeared in front of him making him stop.
"Divine Chains!" Irene chanted, pointing her golden spear at him.
*Shing! Shing! Shing!*
With sounds of metallic golden chains filled with holy light, they appeared, tightly gripping David's arms, not letting him crush the cursed mana crystal.
"A priestess!" Joe shouted, his face changing to horror, the same for David.
When suddenly Lyla appeared beside Irene and looked at them both with her pink eyes.
"Sleep," she muttered, her eyes flashing.
Joe and David both tried to resist the feeling of sleepiness, but they failed to do it as they fell on the floor with a thud.
The dark evil aura also receded into their bodies as there was no one to control them.
"Thanks, Lyla," Irene thanked with a cheerful smile and glanced at everyone, while her eyes stopping on Li Wei.
'It's him; the spirits around him are happy,' she thought and looked at Maurice.
"Guild Master, I apologize for the sudden intrusion," she said with an apologetic expression.
However, Maurice hurriedly shook his head.
"Priestess Irene, you don't have to apologize; you just saved my villa and stopped them from committing suicide. If not, I wouldn't be able to know why they are here. I really appreciate your help," he replied with a wry smile.
His level was low and couldn't do anything except protecting and escaping with everyone.
"Guild Master, eradicating evil is what I must do, so you don't need to thank me," Irene said, shaking her head and looked at David and Joe.
"My legion will interrogate them; you will not mind, right?" she asked, tilting her head.
"No, no, how could I mind? If it's your legion, then I will be more relieved," Maurice replied, shaking his head hurriedly.
