Scarlett glared at the man who interrupted her while she was speaking.
“What are you doing? Don’t cut in line.”
“You’re cutting in line, but where are you? There’s no line anyway… uh.”
A man who was laughing.
The man, who looked at her well-proportioned and muscular body as a lineman, was speechless the moment he saw Scarlett.
“Is there such a thing as manners? We come first.”
“Uh, um. Well, yeah.”
“…?”
Scarlett knew the other person would talk back.
However, Scarlett was rather puzzled when she saw him obediently retreating.
‘Why is it like that?’
“Atewoo, I told you not to leave hastily.”
“Scarlett, what’s going on?”
Nellis and a group of people who appeared to be colleagues of a man called Ateu approached the reception desk.
A group of men approached.
A man wearing a robe and glasses who looked like a wizard bowed his head.
“Sorry, a member of our party interrupted.”
“Huh? That’s it?”
“Uh, yes. Well… okay.”
“As expected. Ateu, hurry up and say you’re sorry.”
“Yeah… I’m sorry.”
“…? Ateu buys an apology?”
“Scarlett, I apologize, so let’s not be too harsh.”
“Someone shot me! I recognize someone as a fighting cock!”
“Ack! Aak! Don’t stab me in the side!”
“what’s the matter?”
“What’s going on?”
As Kalt and Aria, following Nellis, approached the reception desk, the narrow-eyed, sturdy young man in priest’s uniform who had come with the wizard bowed his head.
“Our group got caught in the middle of it. We’re sorry. Don’t worry about us and just accept the request.”
Scarlett spoke to the receptionist to finish her work first.
“I will exterminate the indomitable warrior Nellis party orcs.”
“Yes, I will apply right away.”
As soon as the receptionist finished registering, Scarlett immediately turned around.
“let’s hurry.”
Scarlett takes the first step toward the door.
The man named Ateu was staring blankly behind Scarlett.
“Atewu, what’s wrong with you?”
“….”
“Atewu? Hey, come to your senses.”
“Hmm~.”
Kalt moved only his eyes and looked at Scarlett and Ateu alternately.
‘I witnessed a scene from my youth. Well, the ending will be a tragedy for that guy.’
From what Kalt could see, the lineman named Ateu seemed to have fallen in love with Scarlett at first sight.
But even if he did react that way, Scarlett didn’t seem to notice at all.
Above all, Scarlett was later chosen by Kalt for direct training.
Kalt thought that Scarlett’s heart would never turn to Ateu.
“There are all kinds of weird people.”
As she left the guild, Scarlett said, thinking of Ateu.
“That person from earlier.”
“Uh, I thought they would cut in line and start an argument, but suddenly they stopped saying anything.”
“There is no one in the world like Scarlett who speaks harshly to this person and that person. She would have apologized if she knew she was wrong… Ouch! Stop sidelining!”
“I don’t do that to anyone! I wonder if I would have a good attitude towards the person who tried to cut in line in the first place!”
“But his condition seemed a little strange.”
“Ah, that was strange to me too. At first, I tried to answer, but then suddenly became silent. Why is that?”
“Didn’t you get scared when you saw Scarlett’s eyes… Ouch!”
Kalt couldn’t help but laugh when he saw the three people showing quite pure reactions even though they had no experience in dating.
“Phew!”
“What? Why are you laughing all of a sudden?”
“No, no way. I don’t know that you don’t know this.”
“What do you mean you don’t know?”
“Why was that lineman named Ateu speechless?”
“Khalt, do you know?”
“Okay~”
“For what?”
Kalt thought that if he didn’t tell us here, it would lead to an interesting reaction.
but.
‘Do you think it would be more fun if I just told you?’
“That’s because I fell in love with you.”
“…what?”
“Wow!”
“Oh my goodness.”
Scarlett tilts her head as if she doesn’t understand.
Nellis opened her eyes wide in admiration.
Aria covered her mouth and blinked.
Scarlet crossed her arms and asked Kalt in an argumentative manner.
“What kind of bullshit is that? Why is he in love with me? That doesn’t make sense.”
“Why doesn’t it make sense?”
“Where is the idea of falling in love all the time? Even teasing someone has to be believable. You shouldn’t be teasing a co-worker in the first place.”
Scarlett truly thought that Ateu could not fall in love with her.
Kalt became even more cheerful because of that reaction.
“Scarlett, are you more dull than I thought? That reaction is like love at first sight.”
“what?”
“Wow! At first sight!”
“Something like that happens in the world….”
“Hey, why are you so convinced? Oh, really, both of you are pure.”
Scarlett is the pick! He crossed his arms and raised the index finger of his right hand as if teaching Kalt.
“Listen, Kalt. Love at first sight? There’s no way such a thing exists in this world, right? Infatuation or love only happens when you know who the other person is and when they show special charm or strengths. Does it make sense to fall in love at first sight when you don’t know anything? ”
“Well, it seems like at least that guy knew something about you?”
“No, I met him for the first time today. What does he know about me?”
When Scarlett asked because she genuinely didn’t understand, Kalt patted his cheek and said,
“You’re pretty. Aren’t your looks enough of an advantage?”
“….”
‘You’re saying something that doesn’t sound like poetry, are you?’
‘Wow, look at that expression. ‘I think you’re just talking nonsense.’
There is a definite reason why Scarlett thinks that way.
In Scarlett’s values, the most important thing for a person is ability.
Among them, combat-related skills ranked first, followed closely by personality.
For Scarlett, appearance was not that important.
But does someone fall in love at first sight because of their appearance? It was difficult for Scarlett to accept such a phenomenon.
And even when I thought about it, I found it strangely unpleasant to see Kalt, who had a smooth face, say something like that.
Scarlett glanced at Nellis and Aria.
The two people were looking at each other with interest, like children hearing an interesting story.
‘You both just ignore such foolish words. Oh yeah. That’s it? ‘Are you saying you were playing against me just to enjoy seeing the reactions of those two people?’
Scarlett is fully aware of the fact that co-workers share inappropriate jokes with each other.
But he had no idea that Kalt would tell a joke like this to him at a time like this.
There was no doubt that he was teasing me, especially since he was twitching the corners of his mouth as if he was having fun.
‘He’s making fun of his juniors because he’s more experienced as a warrior party, really… Kalt also has his share of stupidity.’
Scarlett once again thought that no matter how trustworthy a senior she was or how much help she gave, she was still a human being.
“Kalt, stop saying stupid things and go catch the orcs quickly….”
“wait for a sec!”
Ateu, who came out of the guild in a hurry, shouted to Nellis’ party.
“huh?”
‘What, why is that person talking to me again?’
“Well, you’re also trying to exterminate the orcs, right?”
“however?”
“We’re going to exterminate orcs right now! If it’s okay, wouldn’t you like to come along?”
“what?”
Ateu spoke, stuttering as if he was nervous.
“I am a hero who will become a promising hero in the future even though I am like this! I am a strong warrior! Ateu Marcus! What do you think?”
“…What’s wrong?”
“Can’t you see these big arms? And these pecs!”
Thump thump! Ateu appealed to himself by tapping his forearms and chest.
“My protection is simple and strong! It’s an enhancement of strength! I can send away any monster that gets caught in my fist!”
“So? We are enough for the Orcs?”
“Oh, no, that means….”
“Atewoo! Why are you suddenly running ahead alone again!”
Ateu’s colleague ran out of the guild.
“Makbels! I’m just trying to find a party to accompany me.”
“A party to accompany you. The guy who kept yelling that we were enough at some point….”
“Huh! A man needs to know how to cooperate sometimes! Isn’t that right, Takeshin!”
“What Ateu-sama said is correct. But I’m really curious why Ateu-nim is so cooperative. Hehehe!”
“No, why did you do it? I was originally a cooperative man! I ask for help and extend my hand when the other person wants help! A trustworthy warrior!”
“…you?”
“Useup! Why are you talking about Makbels?”
Seeing Ateu and his colleagues bickering, Nellis and Aria whispered quietly.
“Wow, Aria. Mr. Kalt, I guess what you said is true. That person, Scarlett….”
“That’s right. I never thought something like this would happen to Scarlett. It’s so surprising.”
“Kalt’s public figure, pretty Scarlett. A devilish woman! She captured the heart of a male warrior…!”
“Seriously, I told you to stop being so stupid!”
“Ugh, Bo, don’t pinch your cheek!”
On one side, Ateu is trying to look good to Scarlett, who is in love with him, and his co-worker is criticizing Ateu’s behavior.
On the other side, Scarlett is pulling the cheek of Nellis, who is still unable to admit that Ateu fell in love with her at first sight.
Kalt thought as he looked at the situations on both sides.
I want to see more scenes like this.
Kalt approached Ateu.
“Hey, you said you were Ateu, the warrior of Gangwan, right?”
“Okay!”
“Because this is also a good opportunity. I will accept your offer to exterminate orcs together.”
“Oh oh!”
“what!?”
Ateu’s cries of joy and Scarlett’s cries of bewilderment were released at the same time.
