The door opened, and Sunier walked in quietly. She then closed the door and tiptoed to peek through the crack. Han Jin was stunned. Why was Sunier acting like a thief today?
Sunier turned around and shushed Han Jin. She then waved at Han Jin, gesturing for him to hurry over.
Han Jin's curiosity was piqued. He walked to the door and peeked through the crack that Sunier had made for him. He saw Miriam sitting on a stump in the courtyard. There was a wooden basin in front of her, which contained the clothes that Han Jin had changed out of. Stillberg was squatting beside Miriam, saying something to her. However, Miriam's attitude was rather cold. She didn't raise her head, nor did she respond to Stillberg's enthusiasm.
"This is …" Han Jin smiled and whispered, "But he's not that young anymore."
"Don't you think that they're very compatible?" Sunier smiled. In reality, Stillberg was basically trash. Although he had learned Han Jin's magic, the effects were not obvious. If it were anyone else, Sunier wouldn't have cared, but Stillberg was different. When Han Jin was at his poorest, Stillberg had always been by his side. He was even more loyal to Han Jin. As the saying goes, love the house, love the crow that belongs to the house. Sunier had already treated Stillberg as a companion. Now that she saw that Stillberg was showing some signs of interest, she really wanted to matchmake them.
Han Jin muttered to himself. He was a little dissatisfied with Miriam. A girl should be more cheerful and lively. But then again, after going through all those tragedies, Miriam's change was understandable. The most important thing was Stillberg's attitude. If Stillberg really liked Miriam, then Han Jin had the responsibility to help him.
Sunier leaned against the crack in the door again. Stillberg spoke for a long time, but Miriam didn't respond. He smiled and reached out as if to grab the clothes in the basin. However, Miriam reacted quickly and slapped Stillberg's hand to the side.
"This idiot!" Sunier said in disappointment. She felt that Stillberg was being a little too impatient.
"I'm not that young anymore …" Han Jin said softly.
"Yes, yes." Sunier's attention was focused on the outside, so she didn't understand what Han Jin meant.
Han Jin shook his head and hugged Sunier from behind. Sunier's body stiffened, and she hurriedly tried to pry Han Jin's arm away. "Stop fooling around," she whispered. "There are people outside!"
"Are you fooling around?" Han Jin said. "I'm not that young anymore. Stillberg is only a few months older than me. Sunier, shouldn't we consider our relationship? Spring is here … "
"You … What is this?" Sunier bit her lip. "A proposal?"
"You can say that."
"Can you be a little more formal?!" Sunier rolled her eyes at Han Jin.
"How formal? Like a Knight meeting a Queen? " Han Jin laughed. It had been a few months since that battle. As the saying goes, it's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature. Han Jin had always been a very optimistic person, and his mood was no longer as gloomy.
Sunier rolled her eyes, and just as she was about to say something, Han Jin's face was already close to hers, and in the next moment, he kissed her on the lips. Sunier was no longer the same as before, and after a little resistance, she gently opened her mouth and allowed Han Jin to bully her.
At this moment, Yalina appeared in the courtyard. She looked very excited, and she ignored Stillberg and Miriam in the courtyard. She hurried to the door and pushed it open.
Han Jin and Sunier were kissing passionately, and Han Jin's hand was still moving around a certain part of her body. Seeing this, Yalina's face suddenly turned red, and she stood there dumbfounded, unable to move forward or back away.
Sunier screamed and pushed Han Jin away with all her might. She wanted to rush out, but Yalina blocked her way. Sunier had no choice but to rush into the room. Without taking off her shoes, she jumped onto the bed and covered herself tightly with the blanket.
"Miss Yalina, manners! Manners … "Han Jin said helplessly. In fact, he had already heard the sound of footsteps, but he didn't expect her to not knock on the door.
"Ah … I'm sorry!" Yalina laughed dryly.
"Do you need something from me?"
"It's okay." Yalina subconsciously wanted to leave, but then she remembered something. "No! Raphael, when are we going back to the Magic Beast Forest? "
"What are we going to do in the forest?"
"That … that dragon bone!" Yalina took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. "Do you know about the Frost Dragon in Cold Shadow City? With those dragon bones, I can make a dragon puppet! Although it can only last for a short time, it's still a real Frost Dragon! "
"Frost Dragon?"
"Forget it, I'll come find you at night!" Yalina had a lot to say on the way here, but she really didn't have the courage to continue. She threw out a sentence that didn't make any sense, turned around, and ran away in a panic.
Han Jin pondered as he closed the door. In fact, he also had a lot to ask, but now wasn't the time.
Walking to the bed, Han Jin reached out and patted the blanket. "She's gone."
Sunier didn't react at all, as if she didn't hear Han Jin. Han Jin had no choice but to shout, "Come out, Yalina's gone."
Sunier lifted the blanket bit by bit until only half of her head was exposed. She carefully looked out. Whether she was an elven archer who had been through a lot or a high and mighty inheritor of God's Mark, at this moment, she had turned into a frightened little rabbit. Her shy expression was exceptionally lovable.
"She's really gone." Han Jin helplessly repeated the nonsense.
Sunier lifted the blanket and covered herself again. She said in a muffled voice under the blanket, "It's all your fault. How am I going to face them in the future?!"
"Why can't you see them? According to what you said, what should those married women do? " Han Jin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. His gaze fell on the foot of the bed. "Sunier, Miriam is very pitiful. Let's not give her any trouble, okay?"
"Huh?" Sunier didn't understand what Han Jin meant.
Han Jin moved to the foot of the bed, lifted the blanket, and grabbed Sunier's calf. He took off her little combat boots and then grabbed her other foot. Sunier's reaction was a few beats slower. By the time she realized that something was wrong and hurriedly kicked her feet, her boots had already been taken off. She could only shrink her feet under the blanket.
Han Jin remembered seeing a different psychological test in the past. Most men liked women, but their favorite parts were different. Some liked breasts, some liked hair, some liked faces, some liked legs, and some liked buttocks. It was said that men who liked legs and feet were the type who were passionate on the inside. Of course, this was just a test to make people laugh. Han Jin liked legs and feet, but he would never admit that he was passionate on the inside.
Han Jin reached his hand under the blanket to touch Sunier's feet. The moment the two touched, Sunier hurriedly shrank back. Han Jin touched her again, and Sunier retreated again. However, the bed was only so big. Sunier finally reached the point where she could retreat. She lifted a small corner of the blanket and whispered, "What are you doing?!"
Han Jin smiled and took the opportunity to grab Sunier's little feet. He gently played with them. He liked the delicate and smooth feeling.
He had known Sunier for almost two years, but he had never challenged Sunier's limits. It wasn't that he had a strong will, but that he had a lofty goal. A person's energy was limited. If he spent all his energy on that goal, he would naturally have less energy in other areas.
Sunier struggled at first, but Han Jin held her tightly. She gave up struggling and quietly observed Han Jin under the blanket.
Just then, someone knocked on the door. Chipango's voice came from outside. "Sir!"
Han Jin stiffened for a moment. He helplessly put down Sunier's little feet and angrily covered himself with the blanket. He turned around and walked to the door.
Chipango wanted to continue knocking, but the door was forcefully pulled open. Han Jin stood at the door and asked angrily, "What is it?!"
Chipango saw that Han Jin's mood was a bit off and didn't know what to say. Hallister continued, "Sir, did Winston and the others leave?"
"Yes." Han Jin nodded. "They accepted a mission."
"Sir, something's not right."
"What's wrong?"
"I know what kind of mission they accepted. 200 Wind Spirit Herbs, 3 grade 9 lightning magic crystals, and 10 thunderbird eggs. That's a total of 210,000 gold coins. Don't you think the reward is too high?"
"It shouldn't be." Han Jin frowned. "Winston and I were talking last night. The caravan that issued the mission had already left a deposit of twenty thousand gold coins at the Mercenary Association. No one would joke around with twenty thousand gold coins."
"The problem is, they really did use 20,000 gold coins to joke around," Hallister said. Hallister said, "Yesterday, I secretly investigated the caravan. Although I didn't find anything, they left Isolated Cliff City this morning. All of them left, not a single person was left behind."
"Maybe … they'll come back after a while. Winston said that this mission would take at least two months. After one month, the thunderbirds will lay their eggs. That caravan should know that."
"Sir, there's only one place that has Wind Bell Herbs, and grade 9 lightning magic crystals … It's obvious that they want Winston and the others to hunt thunderbirds and thunderbird eggs …" Hallister said slowly. "Sir, the mission items all point to the same place, Thunder Valley!"
"Well …" Han Jin hesitated.
"Sir, when I learned that the caravan had left Isolated Cliff City, I immediately sent people to the Dawn Mercenary Team's base. The main force of the Dawn Mercenary Team left three days ago," Hallister said. Hallister continued, "After that, I contacted the Mercenary Association and found out that the Dawn Mercenary Band used the third portal in the southwest region. That portal was closest to Thunder Valley. Sir, there are too many coincidences!"
"Go find Gibran and Léger. Also, don't forget Yalina." Han Jin made a decision.
