"Isn't this the necromancy major's errand boy?" Claude walked up to Han Shuo and looked at Han Shuo in surprise, frowning as he spoke.
"Necromancy errand boy Brian, I didn't think I'd run into the two of you here." Han Shuo nodded and drank another mouthful of Purple Leylan, responding with a slight smile.
"It looks like there aren't any seats left. Claude, why don't we go somewhere else to eat?" Irene swept her gaze over Han Shuo with a trace of disgust in her eyes.
"No need, many of the taverns in Drol should be packed at this time. There's only one seat for Brian anyways, and since we're all from the Academy, I think Brian wouldn't mind if we sat down. Isn't that right, Brian?" Claude smiled faintly at Irene and then stared merrily at Han Shuo.
"Of course, if you don't think that sitting with an errand boy like me is beneath your dignity, I'd be very happy to sit with you." Claude had injured his Little Skull in order to curry favor with Irene last time. Perhaps Claude hadn't taken this matter to heart, but Han Shuo had silently noted it down. Now that his strength had increased, Han Shuo had less and less scruples in his actions. He'd been fretting about how he couldn't take revenge on Claude, but now that he'd delivered himself to his doorstep, of course he wasn't going to let him go.
"I hate those from the necromancy major, and errand boys are no exception!" Irene frowned and flicked a glance at Claude, saying coldly.
Claude started and then shot a meaningful glance at Irene, smiling faintly at Han Shuo, "Brian, weren't you with the necromancy major? How come I don't see them, and you're the only one here? Oh, to think that an errand boy like you would be able to enjoy such sumptuous food and fine wine. How surprising! "
Irene also looked at Han Shuo in surprise after hearing Claude's words. She seemed to be very concerned about Claude's question, and was in no hurry to leave. Claude noticed Eirinn's interest and politely wiped the dust off the chair in front of her. After gesturing for Eirinn to sit down, he calmly sat down and looked at Han Shuo.
Tearing apart the roasted meat in his hand, Han Shuo sent it into his stomach as if nothing had happened. He took another gulp of wine and burped. He rubbed his stomach in satisfaction and said with a smile, "Master Fanny and the others should be back soon. They were afraid that I would drag them down, so they gave me some gold to wait for them here. Is there a problem?"
"No, no. So that's what happened. By the way, Brian, how was your harvest this time? Did you hunt any high-level magical beasts? "Claude asked Han Shuo with a smile, winking at Irene again.
Irene revealed an attentive expression and also looked at Han Shuo, seeming to be quite concerned about the necromancy major's harvest.
Shaking his head, Han Shuo said, "I don't know, I returned midway. I don't know if they had any great harvests, but I think they've gained quite a bit this time."
"Hmph. What harvest could they possibly have with those people? At most, they could hunt some fifth level magical beasts. I'm afraid they'd have a hard time killing fourth level magical beasts." Irene looked disdainfully at Han Shuo and snorted coldly.
Han Shuo only flicked a faint glance at Irene's mockery and didn't say much. Claude had already called over a waiter at this time and also used a gold coin to purchase some wine and meat.
Han Shuo was thinking about how he could retaliate against Claude. After thinking for a while, a trace of an evil smile appeared on his lips. He threw a banana peel from the plate in front of him at his feet without batting an eyelid. When a waiter quickly walked over with a plate, Han Shuo pushed off with the tip of his right foot and the peel suddenly flew out from under the table.
The waiter quickly walked over with the plate in his hand. He stepped on the peel of the fruit and staggered forward with a cry of surprise. The plate in his hand suddenly flew out and landed on Claude and Eirinn's backs.
Claude and Irene moved upon hearing the noise and suddenly turned around. Claude's right hand suddenly raised high and blocked the plate that was flying towards him. At the same time, Han Shuo's left hand shot out like lightning and flicked his pinky. The grey white psychedelic aphrodisiac powder had already soundlessly landed at the bottom of Claude's wine cup.
"Be careful when you walk." Claude frowned at this moment and passed the plate in his right hand to the waiter who'd stood up again after falling down. He spoke with displeasure.
"Thank you, noble knight. I will definitely be careful in the future!" The waiter took the plate from Claude's hand with trepidation and quickly left after bowing.
Han Shuo was unperturbed and lowered his head as he held his wine cup, drinking as if nothing had happened, as if he hadn't noticed what had just happened.
Claude and Irene didn't say anything else to Han Shuo afterwards. Claude chatted attentively with Irene and drank cup after cup of Purple Leylan mixed with psychedelic aphrodisiac powder. Irene's expression was cold as she responded to Claude in a half-hearted manner. It looked like she hadn't accepted Claude's affection yet.
"Enjoy your meal, I still have matters to attend to and will be leaving first!" Han Shuo saw Claude drink a few cups of Purple Leylan and knew that the psychedelic aphrodisiac powder must have already been absorbed by Claude. He immediately stood up and spoke.
Claude and Irene had always looked down on Han Shuo to begin with and didn't think much of a minor errand boy like him. They wanted nothing more than for Han Shuo to leave as soon as possible so that he wouldn't be an eyesore to them. When Han Shuo had spoken thus, the two waved their hands at the same time, indicating that Han Shuo should leave earlier. After drinking a bit of wine, the disdain on their faces was no longer concealed.
After leaving the tavern with a faint smile, Han Shuo stood alone in a street corner next to the tavern and waited for a while. Claude's face was flushed red as he walked out shoulder to shoulder with the slightly blushing Irene and headed towards the north of the town of Drol.
The sky was already dark at this time, and the town of Drol was brightly lit. It was the busiest time of the day. Groups of adventurers and merchants drunkenly yelled as they passed by. Han Shuo silently followed behind the two and saw them enter a luxurious tavern. He then stood on the side of the street, waiting to watch them make a fool of themselves.
From what Han Shuo had observed just now, Claude probably hadn't moved Irene's heart yet. If, at this time, Claude, under the influence of the psychedelic aphrodisiac powder, did anything improper to her, he would definitely be beaten up by Irene.
Clutching a handful of fruits in his hand, Han Shuo ate leisurely as he thought viciously. After a while, there was still no movement from within the tavern. Just as Han Shuo grew a bit impatient from waiting, Claude suddenly walked out of the tavern with a flushed face and hurried steps towards the street.
Han Shuo's heart jumped. He hadn't thought that Claude's willpower would be so strong, and that he hadn't completely lost his reason even now. But looking at Claude's current appearance, Han Shuo knew that he wouldn't be able to hold on much longer. He hurriedly followed Claude's footsteps from a distance.
Indeed, he'd only walked a dozen or so meters when an older woman with heavy makeup and revealing clothing waved at him. Claude couldn't hold on any longer and huffed heavily as he made his way into the alleyway. It looked like he was planning on taking care of his physical needs nearby.
"Eh? Was that Claude just now?" A cry of surprise came from the side of the street. Han Shuo turned his head to look and was suddenly overjoyed. He thought to himself that the heavens were helping him.
He saw the light major teacher, Beacher, pass by with a few light major students. One of the sharp-eyed female students just happened to see Claude and the seductive, revealing woman make their way into the alleyway and couldn't help but cry out in surprise.
"No way, how could Claude be this kind of person? He's a noble knight and wouldn't come to a place like this to fool around. Besides, Claude is currently pursuing Irene, so it's even more impossible that he would do this." Beacher furrowed his brow and said doubtfully, not quite believing it.
"It really is him, I'm sure I didn't see wrong. If you don't believe me, let's go in and take a look." The female student who had spoken before thought for a moment and said with certainty.
"Let's go Katie, this isn't your business. Don't be a busybody." Beacher was silent for a moment and urged the students to leave quickly.
Katie looked angrily at the alleyway, thought for a moment and stomped her feet, "How can this be? I'll go tell Irene right now. If Claude isn't in the room right now, then it must be him. I won't allow Claude to deceive Irene's feelings."
Katie ran off with a huff as soon as she'd finished speaking and sped towards the hotel where Irene was staying. The other light major students looked at each other when they saw Katie leave and didn't know what to do for a moment.
Han Shuo almost couldn't restrain himself from laughing out loud. He hadn't thought that things would be so coincidental. Han Shuo had originally planned on making a move himself and thinking of ways to trick Irene into coming here. He hadn't thought that Claude's luck would be so bad. It looked like it would be difficult for him not to be unlucky today.
After a while, a frosty Irene and a fuming Katie quickly walked over from afar. One could tell from Irene's expression that she was absolutely furious. Claude had no way of explaining himself now.
"Claude really isn't in the hotel. It looks like my eyes weren't deceiving me at all. It must've been him just now. Irene, I think we'll be able to catch him red-handed if we go in now. Claude is too disgusting to do such a despicable thing as a noble knight. "Katie looked angrily at the alleyway when she'd arrived.
Irene nodded with a cold face and didn't waste another word. She pulled Katie and rushed into the alleyway. Beacher and the others were afraid that something would happen and followed after a moment of hesitation.
When they'd all gone in, Han Shuo finally walked unhurriedly towards the entrance of the alleyway with a malicious smile on his face.
