Chapter 188 A Hasty End... Part-2.


    ??"I guess it will take a day or two for this kid to return back to normal..." (Aaron)


    Everyone ignored the fact that Zach was sitting on Aaron''s shoulders and hitting his head as hard as he could with his small punches.


    "Now that I think about it, I totally forgot about one thing... I didn''t ask you guys why you havee here in the first ce... did you guys need something from me?" (Aaron)


    Hearing Aaron''s question, everyone had aplicated look on their faces.


    ''You are asking that now!? We have been wandering all over your home for a whole day now!'' (Liam)


    "Ahem, we were actually tasked to investigate the appearance of this cave in the area... but as it turns out, you are the one living here..." (Liam)


    Liam nced at Rio and asked.


    "Now that I think about it... uh, what should we report when we go back?... we can''t just say that... ''we found a dragon''s nest there!!''... that would cause too much chaos..." (Liam)


    At Liam''s question, Rio replied in his usual emotionless tone.


    "We should contact principal Raji perhaps... but wait she said she was going to some ruins for exploration... it might be difficult to contact her..." (Rio)


    "Yeah... perhaps we should directly go to the alliance branch of this city and make a proper report..." (Liam)


    "You know how to write that? I heard it''s a very lengthy and boring process..." (Rio)


    Just when Liam and Rio were talking, Lia interjected and said in a confident tone:


    "I will write the report, I have practiced that in my father''s guild, so you can leave that to me!" (Lia)


    "Good, it''s settled then... first we will try to contact principal Raji, if she is unavable, we will just submit the report to the Alliance directly..." (Liam)


    Rio and Lia also nodded their head.


    "Uh, guys how about I write the report?" (Link)


    "No!" (All three of them replied in a unified tone.)


    "Instead of writing about the investigation, you will end up writing about what Riya did all day long..." (Rio)


    "Yes, we don''t need a ''lovebrain musclehead'' to write it!" (Liam)


    Even Lia nodded her head and said.


    "We don''t want an essay on how great Riya is... so this task is not suitable for you..." (Lia)


    Hearing all three of them exposing his inner thoughts so easily, Link felt a bit embarrassed and he epted his defeat. (He really was thinking about writing ''how great Riya is'' in that report!!)


    Depressed from the rejection, Link went back to Riya''s side.


    "Ugh, Riya those three are bullying me..." (Link)


    Although Riya was confused, she gave Link a head pat and even gave him one of her favorite candies to improve his mood.


    Riya gave Link a thumbs up and said in a happy tone.


    "Forget it, you should be like me! Don''t think about stressful things like reports and all! Enjoy the candies!!" (Riya)


    "Yes! Riya sensei~" (Link)


    The other three looked at this and shook their heads in helplessness.


    Meanwhile, Aaron brought out his small diary and took notes in it.


    [Personal human observation results:


    1. Humans are weird creatures,


    2. Some of them are exceptionally intelligent while some are extremely carefree....


    3. They have fearsome talent and regr emotional imbnces...]


    ''Good, now my knowledge of human behavior has progressed further...'' (Aaron)


    ''Oh, wait I forgot one thing...'' (Aaron)


    [4. Humans eat weird foods, some of which are very questionable from a dragon''s perspective...]


    Riko who was standing behind Aaron and was trying to get Zach off his head identally nced at Aaron''s notes and variousplicated emotions appeared in her head.


    ''Ugh, the reputation of the human race has been sullied by us...'' (Riko)


    ...


    After a few minutes of rest, everyone packed up and got ready to leave the ce.


    Liam extended his hand and shook hands with Aaron.


    "Although it was a short meeting, I believe you are a good individual and won''t cause trouble for the human society, thus I will make sure to add good words on your behalf in our report..." (Liam)


    "Haha, no worries, I gained a lot of new knowledge thanks to you all visiting me today... if possible visit me again in the future..." (Aaron)


    "Although I don''t have much to present to the guests but I will prepare some good food when you visit next time..." (Aaron)


    Hearing the word ''food'' Riya grinned and replied in a happy voice:


    "Okay! We will definitelye again!" (Riya)


    ''Next time I visit I will be strong enough to beat you up! How dare you tempt Riya with food!!'' (Link)


    "By the way, sorry for the mess I created back there..." (Liam)


    "No worries, I will get it sortedter without a problem... moreover I still have to research on what happened to that ''tree'' so I guess I will be a lot busy from now on..." (Aaron)


    Aaron didn''t mind the fact that Liam caused trouble for him while breaking through to A-rank, what Aaron was more concerned about was the ''tree of blood''.


    Liam and others nodded their heads and started to walk out of the cave one by one.


    Kai nced at Aaron and nodded his head.


    "Let us meet again someday, I look forward to seeing your research seed... cough! Don''t look at me like that I won''t eat you don''t worry!" (Kai)


    Ellie also nodded at Aaron and then followed behind Liam.


    Aaron used his water authority to part the sea and make the way for everyone again.


    The students again sat on Ellie''s back and flew away.


    Only Aaron was left standing alone in the cave.


    Aaron sighed in rxation and shook his head.


    "I guess it''s time I see the main problem…" (Aaron)


    Aaron hurriedly went back to the lower level.


    What he saw down there made his eyes widen in shock.


    The whole ce was filled with some kind of ck liquid, the walls the ground everything seems to have been melted into that dangerous liquid.


    "Wh-what the heck is this thing?" (Aaron)


    All of a sudden Aaron''s senses detected some abnormal signs.


    "Who''s there? Come out! I know you are using a stealth skill to hide yourself!" (Aaron)


    "Kehkehkeh… so you noticed… as expected of a dragon…


    kehkehkeh…" (???)


    When the individual deactivated its stealth and showed its form, Aaron''s eyes widened in shock.


    "H-how are you still alive!? How can that be!?" (Aaron)


    …


    On the other side, On Ellie''s back.


    "I feel like we are forgetting something…." (Liam)


    At Liam''s doubtful words, Link shook his head and replied in an unconcerned voice.


    "Well if you are forgetting it, then it must be something unimportant I guess…" (Link)


    (What they were actually forgetting was what happened to Fade. Before the mission started Fade was saying that he would reach the cave on his own, but now he is nowhere to be seen…)


    While Liam was thinking hard with a confused look on his face, Riya stretched out her hand.


    "Here! Take this candy, it will improve your memory!" (Riya)


    "Oh! Thanks!" (Liam)


    As Liam tossed that candy in his mouth, he showed it off in front of Link on purpose. He was trying to piss Link off on purpose and he actually seeded.


    ck lines appeared all over Link''s face, and several veins popped up, he looked like he was about to murder Liam on the spot.


    [Master, you will have to make extra food for me today! Or I will kick you!] (Ellie)


    Obviously, Liam''s gesture of taking candies from Riya didn''t go unnoticed by Ellie.


    Liam scratched the back of his neck and tried to console Ellie.


    "Ahem, cough! I-I was just messing around Ellie, no need to get so worked up over it… cough!" (Liam)


    [Master, I feel like throwing you off my back today…] (Ellie)


    "Cough! Okay! Okay! You win! I will make extra food for you! Don''t throw me away!" (Liam)


    [Okay, I will forgive you for now then…] (Ellie)


    Liam wiped the sweat from his forehead and sighed in relief.


    ''Sigh~ my pet dragon is faulty! What do I do!?'' (Liam)


    While Ellie and Liam were having a lover''s quarrel between them, Link pouted his cheeks andined to Riya in an unhappy tone.


    "I am not talking to you anymore Riya, hmph! you gave him your candies-" (Link)


    Before Link couldplete his sentence, Riya suddenly pecked on his cheek like a hen for a second and then continued nibbling on her candies.


    Riya smiled with a teasing look on her face and said:


    "You can have this ''candy'' then…" (Riya)


    That unexpected sudden ''Kiss attack'' caused immense mental and emotional damage to Link''s heart.


    Link immediately lost focus and directly fell down from Ellie''s back.


    Ellie had to go back and grab him in mid-air to prevent him from falling down.


    (That sudden attack from Riya caused him to faint on the spot… bro wasn''t ready for that sudden bold move at all…)


    Seeing Link and Riya act all lovey-dovey everyone rolled their eyes.


    …


    …


    Author''s Notes.


    Yo! It''s your beloved Author here! Who could have thought that even Riya could be so bold sometimes… Her surprise attack was indeed very powerful as it caused a massive critical hit!


    Question of the day.


    How long will it take for you to recover from the ''Attack'' that Riya did, if it was you in Link''s ce?


    1.A Day.


    2.A Month.


    3.A Year.


    4.A Lifetime.
