Chapter 91

"Are you alright? Merica? "

When everyone dispersed and began to prepare for their departure, Vivian and her team gathered at the side of a carriage and greeted Merica in a gentle voice.

"I'm fine. Thank you, Sister Vivian."

Merica shook her head and smiled at everyone. However, that smile seemed a little forced.

"I didn't expect things to turn out like this."

Tierre's tone was filled with displeasure. One could imagine that she was absolutely disgusted by the arrival of Leon's team.

"Boohoo, I really want to go home …"

Lumia even muttered these words in a half-sobbing manner. One could imagine how much pressure she was under.

Shien felt that his curiosity was about to explode.

"What? Do you have a grudge against them? "

Shien wasn't a cultured person, so he asked everyone in a very straightforward manner.

Everyone immediately revealed an indescribable expression.

In the end, it was Vivian who answered for them.

"It can't be considered a grudge." Vivian said, but she still sighed and said, "However, it's true that there's some conflict between our team and their team."

"I think so too." Shien shrugged and said, "Let's not talk about anything else. That nouveau riche young master seems to be very familiar with all of you. I think his eyes are about to fall on Merica."

"Boohoo …" Merica was speechless and lowered her head. She looked like she was about to burst into tears.

Tierre's tone became colder and colder. "It seems that he hasn't given up on Merica."

This was a situation that was clear at a glance.

Vivian rubbed Merica's head to comfort her. She also looked at Shien and said, "That young master Margret stayed in our team for about half a month. He had just become an adventurer and hadn't passed the test yet."

Shien suddenly understood something.

He could still remember what Vivian had said to him when Tierre, Lumia, Merica, and the others were overly wary of him.

"In the past, in our team, there were a few male adventurers arranged by the Adventurers Guild. Some of them took advantage of the camping time …"

Now that things had come to this point, it was obvious what Vivian's party had experienced after joining the male adventurers arranged by the guild.

It was definitely not a pleasant experience for women.

Margret had stayed in Vivian's team for about half a month as a newbie. However, the test clearly lasted for a month, so why did he only stay in Vivian's team for half a month?

The reason was simple.

"Back then, Young Master Margret was one of the most anticipated rookies in the Ramage Adventurers Guild. He had great potential. He was already level 20 at the age of 15. Even Lily had high hopes for him, so she arranged for him to join my team and let me guide him."

Vivian explained the reason in a soft voice.

"Although that young master was impulsive, reckless, arrogant, and had the habit of looking down on others, he didn't have to worry about food or clothing, so he didn't need to become an adventurer. However, because he wanted to train himself and work hard to improve his strength, he logged into the Ramage Adventurers Guild and became an adventurer."

In other words, although this young master had some problems with his character, he didn't neglect himself. Instead, he was a hardworking person who pursued progress. In many people's eyes, he was probably a good seedling.

Lily probably wanted to correct Margret's character and make him a promising talent. That was why she arranged for him to join Vivian's team, intending to let Vivian reform him.

However …

"After that young master joined our team and met Merica, his eyes never left Merica. Not only did he constantly try to please Merica during the adventure, but he also tried to show off in front of Merica. During missions, he often neglected his main objective, and his actions revolved around Merica. He even secretly followed Merica and gave her gifts. In the end, he even found Merica's hotel and sneaked into Merica's room several times."

Vivian's explanation made Shien blink his eyes.

"Isn't that a bastard?"

Shien was speechless.

Under such circumstances, there was no need to even think about what kind of unforgivable actions the young master would take in the end.

"During an adventure camping trip, he took advantage of the fact that we were out looking for firewood and finally got rough on Merica."

At this point, Vivian's tone became a little cold.

"If … If Tierre hadn't been patrolling around the campsite and noticed this and stopped him in time, Merica would have definitely been hurt."

Even Lucia, the shy orc girl, couldn't help but speak up. She was obviously very upset about this matter.

Merica lowered her head even more. She seemed to be recalling the events of that time, and her delicate body began to tremble.

Seeing this, Shien finally frowned.

"Why would such a guy still stay in the guild?" Shien said bluntly. "With such a bad character, would Lily let him go just because he's talented?"

If that was the case, Shien's impression of Lily would be greatly reduced.

In the end, the one who answered this question wasn't Vivian, but Tierre.

"That guy isn't an ordinary person. He's a noble." Tierre said coldly. "His father is a vassal of Marquis Murau. When Mister Baylon was sent to Ramigion, he came to this town as an assistant and an attendant. His status is only below Mister Baylon's."

In other words, because of his family's help, Margray was allowed to stay in the Adventurers Guild.

But even so, Margray was kicked out of Vivian's team and was no longer allowed to approach Merica.

"I see." Shien said thoughtfully. "Then, that young master joined Leon's team?"

"That's right." Vivian nodded. "Leon accepted that young master and let him pass the newcomer's assessment."

"What's the matter with that guy named Leon?" Sean asked doubtfully. "Why don't you seem to have a good impression of him? Is he a bad guy? "

However, no one was able to answer his question immediately.

"This …" Vivian hesitated. In the end, she said with a bitter smile, "I wouldn't say that he's a bad guy. But in the eyes of those who know about him, to be honest, Leon is looked down upon."

"Looked down upon?" Shien was slightly stunned.

What's going on?

Just as Shien was thinking about this, Vivian said this.

"Because he's a man who relies on women to get to his position."
