Become A Human In Another World
ACT 5: Chapter 28 - A Little Noisy Here
Liu Xiu and Rhion ran in the middle of the night. The fight was quite far from the city, so the time required was also not small. Moreover, Liu Xiu had to match Rhion's speed, it made him even slower.
("Ugh.... Is Rhion really running? He looks like a jog to me. But, his face was completely full of sweat. Is this really his best speed?") asked Liu Xiu's heart in annoyance.
Because indeed, Rhion's steps were small, not comparable to Liu Xiu's big big footsteps. In addition, Rhion is also exposed to many obstacles such as grass and shrubs, making it more and more slow.
("I really want to carry her!") Liu Xiu also still cursed in his heart.
After a few minutes that seemed centuries to Liu Xiu, they finally saw the city gate of Li Tian, with the guards looking anxious and scared. Not only that, the tense atmosphere was also felt among the guards.
"Hey you two! Who and what are you coming to night?!" shouted a guard who was at the gate, intercepting Liu Xiu and Rhion.
But they both had Guild cards, and said that they had important information to the Guild. Not only that, they also said that they were emissaries from several cities, so what guards there was also no question anymore.
With that, they easily entered the city.
The city is a little gripping. Although the day is still dark, but usually the residents have gone out and do some activities. Moreover, this was Li Tian, the adventurer city.
The food stores were all closed, no more small stall stalls lined the streets. In fact, the bar where people drink, which is usually very crowded, is now closed like no life.
The residents simply peered out of the window, and looked at the passing Liu Xiu with fear while tightly shutting their doors.
Seeing that all, Liu Xiu's heart ached a little. He could not imagine if the Demon Lord army really attacked, what would happen later.
Shaking his head, Liu Xiu rushed to the most crowded place, or even arguably the only place full of people gathered, the Adventurer Guild.
There was a lot of commotion on the front door of the Guild. Most adventurers ask for an explanation of what happened. But clearly the Guild did not explain anything.
They even held back all the pushy people, arguing that there were important guests inside.
Because after all, depending on what happens, the Adventurer can help to defeat the monsters that appear, or help the evaluation of citizens. And not knowing what really makes them panic.
Slightly breaking through the crowded adventurers that were crowding the Guild courtyard, Liu Xiu attempted to reach the front door, and spoke directly to the guards.
("What matters, is how do we get in now? These guards would definitely not let people in easily, to prevent things like riots. Do I have to discuss it with Rhion? But-")
"We know about the explosion, can we come in?" rhion said in a slightly arrogant tone. It made Liu Xiu pat his eel hard, seeing that his friend was really stupid.
"sorry. Everyone said that, so we can't allow you to enter. If you say that, I also say that I knew about the explosion just now." replied the guard who was at the door, coldly.
("That's obvious, ha ha ha! Did Rhion not even guess this would happen?") liu Xiu asked inwardly, slightly laughing.
"I am Liu Xiu, the Adventurer appointed by the Guild in Fuheng and he is the designated Rhion of Huang Xi! If you have any objections, you can say it now!" liu Xiu said firmly while taking out his Guild card, showing it.
Rhion who heard that, a bit of hesitation took his identification.
He knocked on the door for a while, and whispered with the person inside.
"Please wait here for a moment" said the guard as he closed the door again, holding the two of them from barging in.
Liu Xiu slightly turned towards the male Adventurer with exquisite armour, being here and protesting, who had earlier looked at Liu Xiu with a strange look, between admiration and envy.
"Why? Do you have anything to say?" liu Xiu asked slightly closing his left eye politely asking.
"Ahh, no no. To think that you were sent from there, your ability means something extraordinary" said the man.
Liu Xiu looked at the man, then came up with an idea. He deserved to get close to that person, and immediately embraced it, whispering.
"After all, I have a bit of information about the incident and also, I have to tell the Guild people. Somehow, I have to get in. And also...." Liu Xiu walked up to the person in the armor, draping his hand on the back shoulder of the person.
"You know, there's some fight going on outside. It was the cause of the pillar and some lightning striking earlier." whispered Liu Xiu with a slight mysterious smile.
"You.... Really did?!! Is this not a secret? And also, we weren't sent to investigate her?" asked the man in wonder. At first he was a bit yelling, but after he realized that Liu Xiu was just whispering her, he whispered back.
"It's okay! One of the Adventurers overcame it, and there was nothing left there. Instead, I want everyone to know, that the Guild has already handled this very well." Liu Xiu replied happily.
The person nodded, and smiled as he gave his fist to Liu Xiu, and turned towards the crowd of Adventurers waiting below.
While Rhion was snorting slightly, Liu Xiu only nodded with a slight smile.
("It's good that some righteous people really think that way.") Liu Xiu thought.
After waiting for a while, the door again opened, and the person from inside appeared, whispering something to the doorkeeper in front.
The doorman was a little surprised to hear what others whispered inside, and asked for a repetition. But the whispered remains the same, making the doorman exhale tired.
"alright. You guys can come in. It is precisely the Guild Master asking you to enter." said the doorman with a resigned face.
It made Liu Xiu and Rhion bright-faced, and Rhion immediately slightly prepared to enter.
"Then so-"
"Wait!!" rhion's sentence was not finished, because someone interrupted him, before Rhion was finished. It made him frown a little, but he turned his back to see who interrupted him.
There was an adventurous figure who stepped up the stairs slowly, and stopped before Liu Xiu and Rhion. People immediately stepped aside when they heard the voice, and his figure walked quietly among the crowd.
After all, Liu Xiu knew, he was no ordinary person. If he had a wrong word, something bad would have been the end!
"I'm sorry if I'm not so good. If you can, who are you?" liu Xiu asked in a polite tone.
