Chapter 183 - Morals (Mass Release 2/10)



Once I and June had left the club, we walked aimlessly on the streets walking up to a few stalls here and there, however, throughout the whole walk we did not speak a single word to each other. While this might have been due to what had happened in the club, I simply did not care if she would speak to me or not.

Yet, I would look at her with my 360-degree vision every now and then to make sure she is okay or to even see what her expression was like, and eventually, after seeing that she had no significant expression on her face that would tell me how she is feeling, I turned around and looked at her properly with my divine eyes.

[Status: Complicated, Confusion, Animosity]

She clearly saw the change in my eyes the moment I had looked at her, making her go on guard for reasons I did not know.

"Why are you angry?" I asked while looking at another stall to the side nonchalantly.

"I\'m not angry..." She harumphed while I glanced at her again as if she was an idiot.

After a few moments of silence, I realized that she would not say anything unless she was 100% I knew how she felt.

"Did your brain skip the part where I said I had soul-mana eyes? I can read your emotions like an open book" I scoffed before gradually walking to one of the booths with mountain-boar meat on sticks which were being grilled openly to allow the smell of them to travel in the air. For a split second, I had been put into a trans-like state where all I could think of was food, making me salivate excessively.

Snapping out of it, I looked back at June and saw her complicated expression before she sighed and spoke again.

"I don\'t like how you handled the situation, nor the fact that you think you are worth more than me"

I stayed silent until I finally stepped into the line in front of the stall and looked around with a scoff.

"What? Are you a child? This is how the real world works. If they try to scam you, you scam them right back. And about the worth thing, I don\'t think I am worth more than you in general, but in this mission, I kinda am. Our guildmaster has directly told us to only find locate them, not save them. If  we take that into context, without me none of you can actually find them before they eventually die, and I am telling you right now, I wouldn\'t give them another 3 weeks to live at this rate" I looked back towards the stall with a shrug

"That is not what I mean! What I mean is how you tried to persuade him. You basically threatened the life of everyone he cares about, and now he ill be basically forced to ask for help which will also force him to give us 50%!" Her fists clenched even tighter.

"I don\'t get what ou are coming at, isn\'t that a good thing?" I did not even look at her this time.

Right now there were only 3 people left in front of me out of the 5 that were here before we joined the line.

"You don\'t understand! What you did is immoral! You are playing dirty and for what? Money? Do you really care that much about how much we get paid? There are lives at stake here!" Her teeth started to grit even harder while her fists were clenched so hard that her nails almost dug into her skin... Almost.

"Immoral?" I scoffed "Do you think I care what is moral or not? They aren\'t our friends, they are dispensable at the very least. Yes they might be strong, but I am sure we can easily finish the original mission on our own"

"But YOU said that we should come here and save them, and I joined you! YOU said you wanted to be the hero and I decided I wanted to also save them. And now you are backing out this easily?!" 

"I am not backing out, because the facts are simple. We will at the very least get 45% of the commission, whether they like it or not. They need us, and mainly me. You are basically just extra support" My words left June in a daze.

\'Did she just call me dispensible\' her anger had almost reached a boiling point.

"Can I get two of these?" I pointed at the meat sticks.

"Sure, give me a second" The old man smiled warmly and grabbed two of them and lifted two fingers

"Two gold coins?" I tilted my head to the right in confusion.

"No dear! These are only 2 small silver coins" The old man laughed.

"Oh crap, sorry about that." I grabbed a gold coin and gave it to him, making him go into a daze.

"WAIT, MISS! This is too much" The old man panicked.

In the empire, 100 copper coins were equal to 1 small silver. 10 small silvers were equal to 1 large silver coin, while 100 large silver coins were equal to a single small gold coin. I had basically given him enough money for him to live off for a month or two especially due to him being one of the lower class workers who would barely live off the amount of money they make.

"I don\'t have change" I walked away while gesturing for June to follow. Simultaneously, I took a bite from the meat and savored it in my mouth, however, I saw the old man\'s face go pale the moment he saw me eat it.

June grudgingly followed behind me and after a few seconds, tried to grab her meat stick however, I had already pulled it away from her.

"Hey!" June shouted again before lunging at the meat stick. Seeing this, I quickly swallowed it whole with the wooden stick and everything before doing the same with my other.

"WHA-!" June was about to explode, but then she heard my voice

"It was poisoned so it would have been harmful for you to eat" I shrugged before closing the square hole in my mask my injecting mana into it.

Doubt filled June\'s face, however, she simply harumphed and walked ahead of me making me sigh in reliefe
