Chapter 44: [Oriel!]

[Evelyn's POV!]

'He is handsome.'

That was the first thing I saw about him.

It was true that I could see a person's Mana Spirits, but it's not like it's easy to control. It requires a huge amount of mana to look at the spirits and once used, it cannot be used for another hour or so.

First time I saw him, he was trying to help a little girl who had lost her way. I think I saw that girl in the church last I visited there. She was one with the freaky amount of Light spirits

'He is handsome and kind.'

So I checked his spirits.

He had quite a lot of Light Spirits. But that wasn't all. He had many more spirits around him, a bit of dark spirit and a fire and water, but mostly it was Light. I wonder what kind of person he is.

As if fate had it, I met him again in the guild. Never had I ever loved this job more.

I talked with him, somehow went on a date and we talked more, ate and he walked me to my home. But then his expression changed… he looked at the alley down the way and saw something before he suddenly asked to leave. He promised for another date, but I had my doubts.

I was so regretful that I ended up sulking all night. But waking up refreshed, I came back to the guild, hoping to see Adam again.

And he appeared again, making me blush as I helped him with a bunch of quests. He even was ready to give back the quest to Layla just to take them from me.

'I think I am going to fall in love,' I almost fainted at that point, but I controlled myself.

But I didn't know…

That he was… this capable.

"Hey, I have done these. These are the reports," he spoke with a sincere smile as he submitted the report once again.

"Hey… You aren't forging these reports, right? You know fals-" I was about to speak but one of the receptionist came and interrupted,

"Hey Evelyn. Layla. The feedback from Adventurer Adam from the morning and afternoon arrived."

The receptionist passed the reports to us before moving back to work. I looked at her going away before opening the reports and, to my surprise…

"All of them… were correct," I mumbled before looking at Adam again. Not just me. Layla behaved the same way as she observed him.

"Adam. You weren't a hidden professional information broker, were you?" I asked with my eyes still confused by this. If it were any other mission, I could have evaluated him as someone stronger than his rank… but this was information handling out of all things. And some of them, like lost children and small drug deals, don't even make sense.

"I just have some skills and some connections," he said, making me observe him with a doubtful gaze. Didn't he arrive here just yesterday? Well, if he says so…

It was at this moment, a man wearing a golden silverish robe, cladded in shining armor, appeared in front of us. His blue eyes over his pale blonde hair made him look like a noble, and the aura he carried could be anything but normal.

"Miss Evelyn. Could you pass some Bandit Subjugation quest? I heard that the information on the hideout has been updated a few hours ago." the guy, Oriel, was the S-Class Adventurer. I was going to introduce to Adam.

'Am I forgetting something?' I felt like I was missing something. Hmmm… I hope it's not important…

"Ah! Wait a second," I went back into the storeroom, and checked out the special quest ledgers. Finding the A-Grade Quest that had been updated right now, I then took it back outside and gave it to Oriel.

"Sir Oriel. Could you help this friend of mine? He is pretty capable… " I introduced Adam as promised. Oriel turned to Adam for a few moments before looking at me.

"Ummm! He is a battle mage who can use Light Magic to heal himself. He came here to learn more about Light Magic, but he doesn't want to learn it from the priest… I hope you can… help him… out…" I turned silent as I saw Oriel sizing up Adam.

Oriel moved closer to him as he spoke," I will ask only a question."

'Ah! I remember now…' My eyes opened wide as I recalled something about the personality of Oriel.

"B*obs or B*oty? Which do you prefer?" He asked with the most honorable face he had.

That he was a f*cking pervert

-BOOOM!!! Both me and Layla smacked him with all our might. Pure irritation was present on our faces.

"Something that fits right in my hand," Adam gestured with his hand as he showed it to Oriel. His eyes were bright and proud.

-BOOM!!!!

"You don't have to answer that!!" I hit Adam, too, before fuming away from there.

"Seriously, all men are trash!" I spoke out loud as I peeked behind to see Layla sighing. Those two weird perverts were looking at each other in agreement, making me irritated by the minute.

Though I wonder why… this interaction made me feel relaxed. The mysterious guy who seemed near perfect before, now looked a bit more human now.

'Wait! Am I becoming perverted too?' I got irritated before looking at both of them at once,

"Oi Brats," I called them to get their attention. And once they looked at me," Drop dead," I glared at them before moving into the staff room.

Inside the staff room, I fell on the chair as I covered my face in slight embarrassment. He won't hate me for it, right? I just blurted whatever came to my mind…

"Hey Evelyn. You okay?" Layla asked as she entered the storeroom before I sighed with a tired smile," I am. How are they doing?"

"Hehe. Weirdly enough, they seemed to be getting along better than the last one you sent to Oriel," Layla spoke before she began trying to console me a little by changing the topic.
