Chapter 322: Babysitter Part I

KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!

The heavy knocking noises were coming up rapidly, making someone jump out of her sleep on the soft mattress instantly. Her light grey eyes were trying to look around before she drowsily realized that she was sleeping in her private room at the Nemesis camp. Then, she held her hands up to rub her eyes confusedly.

When she looked outside the window, she saw the bright sunlight going through the light blue, smooth-textured curtains. The woman knitted her eyebrows together.

“It’s morning already?”

The one in the position of the Nemesis’s chief of staff spoke sleepily to herself. She turned to check the time on the Nemesis’s limited-edition clock with the goddess spreading her wing model on the wall, before letting out a long sigh.

“It’s 6 o’clock in the morning. What urgent could it possibly be now.”

Maysa said tiredly, before yelling to answer the door that was still heavily knocked in the same rhythm. She frowned as she put on her shoes and walked to get to the door grudgingly.

“Yes?” She answered.

“You’re awake, yet?”

It was Waree who was smiling broadly with a chuckle that came right after...

She was dressed in the latest guild’s uniform that Manoch had just freshly finished designing, including a black outer shirt with white stitching and golden rims. On her shoulders, there were shoulder loops to show her title. On the left side of her chest, there was a golden Nemesis’s logo pin attached to it remarkably. She wore the shirt on top of her favorite green dress. And she was wearing a pair of high-top shoes.

“Oh, you’re fully dressed.” Maysa greeted in a sleepy voice. “You have somewhere to be? I can’t come with you today, though. I’m too tired.”

“Come on, how are you going back to sleep like this, gorgeous?” Waree chuckled. “Today, we have a major meeting about the war agreement in Dores, don’t we? But how come our chief of staff is still sleeping in like this, hm?”

After listening to that, Maysa opened her eyes slightly, looking like she was processing for a while. Then she widened her eyes, holding her hands up to cover her mouth.

“My goodness! I totally forgot about that!”

The chief of staff yelled out resoundingly, making the other girl smile amusedly as she pushed the sleepy one back inside her room and closed the door behind them as softly as she could. Because if there was a guild member witnessing Maysa in the messy bed hair and being so silly like this, her chief’s reputation of being strict and intimidating would totally be destroyed in the blink of an eye!

“When you’re being strict, you can really give me a goosebump sometimes. But when you’re being so goofy, you’re so funny that I want to laugh, you know.”

Waree teased in a playful voice, but the other one did not seem like she was in the mood. Right now, Maysa disappeared behind a box that looked like a large black treasure chest.

“Well, I’m not a robot that is coded to keep a straight face and go on with my life to be exactly the same all the time.”

“Oh, you’re not?”

Waree faked a sweet voice and an innocent face at the other. And that made the gorgeous face of Maysa turn and send Waree a dead gaze as she placed her hands on her waist like she was ready to fight.

“Staying out of my nerves for a day doesn’t make you less pretty or anything, you know, Miss Waree.”

“Aw, that was my honest question. Everyone knows how innocent I am.”

“Sure!”

The one with a messy bed head bared her teeth, before paying her attention to finding something in the treasure chest, letting Waree sit on her soft bed.

“And where did Ae put my uniform in the guild’s inventory?”

After her words, a transparent screen popped out of the treasure chest. It was an inventory window with immense numbers of slots to contain items.

“It’s in the chief’s slots, honey.” Waree poked her head up to tell the other. “Ae has made a special uniform for the chiefs only. Don’t grab a normal one from the general slots instead, okay?”

“Well, of course, there got to be a special one, huh.”

Maysa said sarcastically, before seeing that there was only one special uniform that was not taken out of the chief’s slots.

“This is the one, I guess.”

She said and poked at the picture of the item, making a long-sleeved black shirt like Waree’s appear.

“Your shoulder loops are pink? But well, this color suits you the most, May.” Waree said in a delighted voice.

Hearing that, Maysa glanced at Waree’s shirt and saw that her shoulder loops were green. So, she smiled amusedly as she complimented Manoch in her mind for his detailed works that even had each chief’s favorite color showing in their uniforms as well.

“Anyway. Please get dressed and follow me, chief.”

Waree said smilingly, before pushing herself up.

"Also, the Pride’s staff has just informed us that they’re sending a car to pick us up at the guild.”

“They’re sending a car?” Maysa raised her eyebrows. “What does that mean?”

“Well, they said that they’ve provided a limousine for every guild that is an ace of the war, right from our door, all the way to the meeting. And Anne just called and said that our ride will arrive at our guild to pick us up at 9 o’clock.”

Maysa made a wry face like she was surprised by the information she just learned.

That was when she realized how famous their guild actually was. Lately, they had been going on some brutal quests all the time. So, there was no surprise that other players would see them as a freak beast someday.

“Oh, and one more thing,”

Before Waree opened the door, she turned to smile at Maysa again.

“Yeah...”

“Looks like your boyfriend’s back from his tough quests now.”

Hearing that, Maysa smiled widely right away.

“Really?!”

“Yeah.” Waree nodded. “I heard that he arrived here around 3 a.m. I haven’t seen him either, but they said that after he got to the camp, he went straight to his room and slept like dead there.”

Maysa’s smile turned sweeter instantly. She managed to open her inventory and grab her uniform out, like she wanted to just quickly get dressed, so she could go see some cheeky man who was out of the guild for two days straight when he said he would only be gone for a day!

----------------

Fast like a rocket, right now, the gorgeous girl who was in the position of the Nemesis guild’s chief of staff was now completely dressed and walking on the walkway inside the camp. Where she was heading was the tent on the furthest side that everyone knew belonged to the man with the highest title in this place.

Her light gray eyes were sparkling as her lips curled up a sweet smile, making many guild members pause and surprised to see the strict chief of staff could smile like that as well.

It did not take long before she got to the wooden door with a clear sign on it, saying, “Vincent.” The pretty girl in her new uniform knocked on the door softly with a lively face like she almost forgot to care about her look around the camp.

KNOCK! KNOCK!
