Chapter 295 – Familiarity

Wow… isn’t that maid too beautiful?

Compared to that plain-looking boy, everyone’s gaze was attracted to the maid, they even forgot about their argument and couldn’t take their eyes away from her.

Silver hair and red eyes, a broad chest, pure white silk… this ice cold beauty was saturated with an air of pride and nobility, even if she was wearing a lowly maid outfit, she was more like a fallen monarch. Her air made people want to kneel before her and receive her scolding.

But alas, the only one who could make her open her honorable mouth and get scolded with her delicate voice, was her master, no one else was worthy.

“Cough… what’s going on, did no one hear me?”

The youth awkwardly coughed when he realized that everyone’s attention was attracted to his maid and no one paid attention to his question.

“Eh, you guys are here as well?”

He turned around and saw Yao Zi sitting on the floor and Lin Tian who was hugging her with a resentful face. He couldn’t help but feel the familiarity, like he met an old friend and talked to them.

He knew these two!

“Lin Tian, Yao Zi, so it’s you guys… what a coincidence, are you guys also getting certified? Then you got your first pay, right? How much is it?”

“…”

Yao Zi managed to standup with the help of her brother, her knees scraped and bleeding.

The siblings looked at each other, neither saying a word and silently stared at the youth that struck up a conversation.

“Lin Xiao…”

A student from Loran Academy’s magic department, Lin Xiao! And his maid, Elena!

He silently called out the name of the youth that had the same surname with him with complex feelings.

What should he do,this guy seems like he could help… but should he ask Lin Xiao to help stand up for them? To help expose Hebrew?

Impossible, don’t joke!

Leaving aside the fact that he may not even be that much stronger than them, he was unrelated to them. They even have some conflicts since they snatched their championship, now that he saw them being humiliated, how could they even ask for help?

Lin Tian was fuming and started thinking about all kinds of things.

“There’s no pay!”

Lin Tian responded in a low voice, then turned and looked at Hebrew’s arrogant face with chilly eyes. He helped support his sister and prepared to admit defeat and leave.

“Eh? Strange, why not? Could it be that you guys weren’t able to get certified?” Seeing them like that, Lin Xiao finally realized that something wasn’t right.

Initially, he thought that Yao Zi was being dumb and tripped, but after noticing the strange atmosphere, he stopped him.

“Hey, what’s going on?”

“Uh… leaving after failing, aren’t you going to try again?”

Lin Xiao saw the blackish stone doll in the distance and didn’t understand why he was so depressed.

He heard the details about the challenge from the people beside the door earlier, all they had to do was knock down the doll that was made out of refined magic stone.

They failed such an easy challenge?

Even if they did fail, why are they so angry?

Lin Xiao didn’t understand.

“Hmph, we’ll still fail even if we try again… because he did something to the stone!” Lin Tian couldn’t endure and angrily cried out.

“Don’t slander me!”

“You clearly said that fifth-level magic was enough to knock it down, but bother my sister and I used fifth-level magic and it had no effect! You clearly did something! … All those people saw it, they can testify!” Lin Tian pointed at the people watching at the door with eyes full of expectations.

However, none of them were willing to stand up and speak for him, even if they knew that Hebrew did something. Rather they tried to comfort him and looked forward to the performance of the youth that just arrived.

“Kid, don’t be too upset, this is common… if fifth-level magic is no good, then why don’t you just use sixth-level magic? Oh, you aren’t able to yet, that’s a problem.”

“Hey, would it kill you to speak less, what if he cries? He’s still a child! Haha.”

The several middle-aged men looked like veteran investigators, and they even ridiculed him making Lin Tian explode with anger.

“Damn, you’re just all a bunch of thieves colluding with each other!! I, I…”

“Calm down first.”

Watching Lin Tian’s enraged demeanor, Lin Xiao finally understood everything.

Lin Tian was completely different from him, he wasn’t mature enough and was too hotheaded. The first thing he did was get angry rather than think about how to solve the problem after he fell into someone’s trap.

Wouldn’t the world be nice if you could solve problems just by yelling at people?

Originally, with Lin Xiao’s personality, he would be too lazy to bother with this, but since he had to get certified as well, he was going to get involved, so he wanted to get a clear picture.

Lin Xiao couldn’t communicate with this immature little brother, so he went to Yao Zi to ask about the situation.

Yao Zi was a kind girl and wasn’t wary of Lin Xiao at all, rather she felt familiar with him because they both had black hair and black eyes and were from the Eastern tribe. So she didn’t hide anything and told him about what happened, she even faintly revealed an expression hoping that he would help and that she wouldn’t be able to thank him enough. Her brother wanted to interrupt several times as he was listening as he didn’t want her to lower herself and ask for help.

“Do you get it? Hmph, you’re a fifth-level magician just like us, so you don’t have to waste anytime, either pay to get certified or scram with us!” Lin Tian complained with self-pity and even brought himself into it. Who knows if he was angry at someone else, or angry at his own incompetence.

“Brother, don’t say that…”

“Uh… so you’re saying that fifth-level magic isn’t enough?”

“Of course not! Don’t get full of yourself, my sister and I both failed, and you aren’t much stronger than us!”

“Hehe, I see, okay then…”

Lin Xiao was amused, he glanced at Elena and read her impatient emotions, like she was saying, ‘Why are you messing around with this immature kid, pervert, hurry up and get certified and get some missions!’
