Fate Online: Shadow

"Hey, is it just me or the village ladies only knows how to cook a stew for a meal?" Ripley leaned over and whispered to Storm Moonlight.

Storm Moonlight just rolled her eyes and said, "It’s not you, it’s because they literally only know how to cook meals with soup in it"

"The village chief assented to that fact. It was because of the cold climate in this place that they needed meals that could warm their bodies"

"Then why don’t you cook then? You are, after all, still a chef" Ripley laughed while hinting at her friend.

Storm Moonlight chuckled and said, "If I do that, then those hungry bastards would keep bothering me that I should help out the village ladies and cook a meal from then on, and I don’t want that"

Ripley clicked her tongue and snorted, "You say that, but I can clearly feel that you’re just lazy"

Storm Moonlight looked at her and smiled, then Ripley also smiled in return as both of them suddenly started laughing to themselves.

"Hahaha!"

"What’s up with them?" Solitary Tempest said to Michael while looking at the two women, sitting just a few meters away from the two of them, where they saw both women suddenly started laughing to themselves.

"Ignore them, they are just two crazy old ladies," Michael said as he calmly took a sip of his soup.

"Hmm?" Michael raised an eyebrow when he noticed on the ground that a huge shadow seems to be looming over him, and then when he raised his head, he saw Ripley and Storm Moonlight looking at him with smiles on their faces.

’Shit! Did the two of them hear what I had just said?’

Michael panicked for a bit when he saw the two women standing before him, and when he glanced at his side, Solitary Tempest was already gone and he saw her standing in the distance with Miya, smiling.

’This woman...’

Then he quickly turned his attention to the two women glowering at him.

"Hey...! Can I help you two with something?" Michael wore an innocent look on his face as he slowly stood up from the ground while dusting himself off.

Ripley grinned and crossed her arms on her chest, and said, "Ohh, we just heard that someone was calling the two of us, two crazy old ladies, you don’t happen to know the person who said those words, right?"

"The two of us are still young, but they are already calling us old and even crazy, how hurtful," Storm Moonlight said while wearing a wronged expression on her face.

’These two women are really crazy! You two clearly knew that I was the one who said it, and now, you’re acting like you don’t! F*ck!’

Michael cursed inside as he had completely forgotten that these two ladies in front of him would become crazies when their age is mentioned.

"Yeah, that person who said that is an asshole, right?" Michael laughed dryly as his feet are already slowly moving away from the two women.

Swoosh!

But he was too slow as two long shadows suddenly grabbed his shoulders and gripped him tightly on the spot!

"Yeah, what an asshole, right?" Ripley laughed as her nails dug deep on Michael’s shoulder.

Storm Moonlight slowly leaned closer beside his ear, and whispered., "Amanda is watching us, so we’ll let you off the hook this time, but if there’s a next time..."

Her voice trailed off as she pulled her head back and just stared at Michael while smiling.

Michael hurriedly nodded his head in horror, and the women walked away after that.

Michael took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and only then did he noticed that his back is covered in sweat.

"Shit, I had completely forgotten that those two women are scary. Scared the shit out of me when they suddenly appeared standing in front of me"

Then Michael stealthily looked around, and when he saw that no one noticed what was happening earlier, he heaved a sighed of relief as he was worried that his image would be ruined if the villagers saw what happened with him and the crazy ladies earlier.

At the same time, Michael wondered how they even heard him, and he even gave Solitary Tempest a suspicious look that she had maybe told them, but when he thought about it, the three women aren’t even that close yet.

"Damn, its either one of them has a skill that lets them hear from a distance slightly far away from them"

Michael clicked his tongue, as he would really be envious of them if they have a skill similar to what he was thinking.

Putting what happened at the back of his head, Micheal cleared his throat and then he yelled towards the people in his surroundings.

"You guys, take an hour break, then we’ll resume the work after that"

Then Michael instructed Dylan and the others that they could have the other players who were in the morning shift grind in the dungeon while those players in the afternoon shift would replace them.

After listening to what Michael said, "God damn! That dungeon is really great for grinding levels and items. It’s just a pity we didn’t manage to find out about it earlier from you, else we could have taken advantage of its double exp!"

"Now, you and Miya are probably the highest leveled players around. If those bastards learn out about this, they’d go nuts and complain in the forum saying that you guys were cheating or shit"

Slap!

Then Dylan suddenly slapped Michael’s back and said with a laughed, "But man, I didn’t expect that you would truly become a noble! I still can’t get over this shit about you being a noble, because you don’t look like one at all!"

"Could they have been mistaken or something?"

Michael glared at Dylan and said, "Shut up, just go do what you’re told to do, and I have the face of a noble, you asshole!"

"Yeah right, in your dreams bastard!" Dylan laughed and walked away from him while giving him the middle finger.

Michael just laughed and mumbled to himself, "What an asshole"
