Novel Bin Chapter 205 - A Husband And Noe Get Approached By The Bully!
As Kyoya and Noe entered the area filled with monsters, both of them slowly engaged in a battle with them. There were mostly flame concept monsters, but one also could spot a mixture of foreign concepts that people passed to the lands here.
The belief was surely not lacking here, so Kyoya and Noe progressed just like the rest of the party. Although this couldn\'t be said at the very beginning when Noe needed a lot of time to deal with her fear.
However, Kyoya was always with her and this began to finally influence Noe.
From what Noe told the husband, she found it hard to fight even on the low floors with monsters, but it surprisingly became easier as some time passed with him. The difference was that the husband simply could influence her far better than Xiaoxiao! This didn\'t mean that Noe and Xiaoxiao were bad friends, but simply the new emotion with Noe\'s heart did a lot of magic here.
And so, Noe was like a fish in the water nowadays as long as it was one against three monsters! No one of these could get closer to her and Noe easily could control the flow of battle with scythe bigger than her.
It was also convenient for her to keep her stuff in inventory prepared by the game system as the husband went all out and gave her the game system! They both were doing minor quests to strengthen themselves!
[Quest: Kill one hundred cold flamed monsters.]
"The cold flame concept should belong to Ice Gods, right? It\'s strange to see it spreading so widely here."
"It might be one of the new fire gods. You never know."
Kyoya could only shrug his shoulders to Noe\'s answer as it wasn\'t like she would provide him with anything useful… And asking father in law would be stupid, but he was certain that something suspicious was going on in the Yuyu Kingdom.
It might be weird, but after the first appearance of these cold monsters, Kyoya and his party began to see more and more of these. Right now, Kyoya and Noe didn\'t even need to search for those.
Thus, Kyoya believed that there had to be something bigger going on! Although Kyoya hoped that there wouldn\'t be any kingdom upheavals! His goal was just to get some terrain for himself atop the mountain!
A goal that seemed so simple yet it was one of the greatest goals on the 19th floor!
Killing and looting those monsters was nonetheless pleasant for the husband as he had Ice Divine\'s blessing that gave him Ice Resistance. He could easily close up distance with those monsters and deal with them!
He also could spend time alone with Noe which was a great experience considering her sweetness towards him.
However, the foreign\'s scream interrupted Kyoya\'s time with the new party member!
"Help me! Help! Please!"
Since the roads were safe from any monsters, Kyoya and Noe had a small picnic here with all the stuff taken out from their inventory. They didn\'t need much time to clean and take care of their stuff, so their small hunts were the best of quality!
This changed a little as the man with blood splashed all over his body stumbled upon them.
He was wearing adventurer clothes with a cape that covered his right shoulder. On this shoulder, Kyoya and Noe could spot the fire bull embroidered with flame treasure.
A sight of a fire bull would indimatade many adventurers and territory owners in the vicinity yet this bull here was full of blood and far from its prestige!
Soon, the man\'s knees hit the ground, then he began to crawl his way towards the husband and black-haired lady. His nails dug its path towards him with all the sweat and blood just profusely flowing down his body…
Then, Kyoya\'s inward thoughts escaped!
"Aren\'t you guys supposed to be the bullies?"
"..."
These words silenced the man\'s cries! He even seemed to forget about the pain as his eyes slowly shifted to look at the husband with blank expression… The sudden silence lasted only a mere seconds, however.
"What… bullies?! Do I look like a bully?!"
"No, you don\'t."
"Ughhhhh!"
The man puked immediately after Kyoya answered him just as fast. He then hit the ground with his pale forehead, getting closer to the death. At some point, he would either die from exhaustion or blood loss, so Kyoya had to decide fast as to what to do.
Luckily enough, he wasn\'t alone and his current teammate was the lady who rather looked a few steps ahead.
With a hand on her chin, Noe shifted her eyes to Kyoya, then softly spoke.
"Helping him might bring us unwanted attention. Since we are new here, we as well might just focus on getting fire treasures and increasing our territory. Besides, we aren\'t on 19th floor level strength…"
Noe had a fair point here. She whispered her last sentence to the husband which was the crucial reason as to why she felt like just not helping this man out. Furthermore, anyone could help him here.
Just a few steps… or arduous crawling and the man should be able to notice other adventurers from the 19th floor!
"We should answer others if they come to our doors. This doesn\'t mean we can\'t get any information from him."
These were her last words regarding this man! Only if Kyoya decided to help him would Noe say more or propose to treat the wounds on her own. For now, she was waiting for the leader\'s decision!
If he wanted to make the man\'s last moments hellish to acquire the information, then Noe would help. Similarly, if he wanted to help with medicines to get some information! The lady was all ears for his next words.
However, Kyoya did something different.
He took a bit of Noe\'s words to his heart, then squatted down. His hand then touched the man\'s forehead to perform a trick. The best trick that helped the husband many times on his path!
[You have tricked the man\'s nerves!]
It took some time, but Kyoya managed to trick the man\'s nerves. All the pain truly became forgotten by the new arrived person and his eyes slowly became cleaner. Though he couldn\'t move, it was perfectly fine for him to speak.
"I am not a bully, really."
These were his first words!
