Ficool

Chapter 81 - Can't get Exhausted

Nixxin slowly pours champagne in a flute. Nixxin then walks slowly as he looks at the man at the table. Nixxin goes to the kitchen and looks for Brondu. "Hey... pal."

Brondu looks at his back while cooking a steak. "Yeah?"

Nixxin looks at the red steak in the pan. "A guy at the table, he ordered a piccolo, and he also has those black tattoos of blades on his index finger."

Brondu looks outside the window. "Those guys have been here since yesterday; I still haven't told the others, but don't worry, this night once everyone comes back from school, I'll tell them about those guys."

Nixxin looks at the pan. "We should close the tavern for now."

Nixxin opens the door and goes to the counter. While waiting for a customer, the man at the table stands up to go out of the tavern, and he bumps into William. William falls on the marble ground. He looks at the man; he freezes in fear as he sees the man's eyes. William quickly stands up and closes the door. Nixxin ignores William, as if he doesn't see him. William approaches the counter; he tries to talk to Nixxin, but Nixxin just widens his wings, covering any possible way they could talk. William looks disappointed; he goes to the kitchen to look for Brundo.

As he reaches for the door, he bumps into Brundo again going out of the kitchen. Damn... This is the second time. Brondu offered him a hand. "Are you okay, kid?"

William holds Brondu's arm and stands up. "Yeah, I'm fine."

Brondu smiles. "I'm really sorry..."

William looks at Nixxin in the back. "It's okay, sir, btw is it—"

William pauses as he sees Brondu turn his head and look for Nixxin. "Feauv, follow me for my tavern contract in Sky City."

Nixxin looks at William. "Yeah, sure."

Brondu looks at his back. "How about you, William? Will you join us?" William nods.

They leave the Coffin Guild headquarters. Nixxin flies, carrying the two of them to the sky city. As they see the sky city, Nixxin tilts his wings steeply upward to slow down. Nixxin drops Brondu on the ground while he drops William, and Brondu catches him. Brondu walks towards the guard; Nixxin falls beside him. He saw it again, the guard who was guarding the city that night when he left with her.

William and Nixxin wait for Brondu. "Hey, we can go now!"

Brondu yells as the guard allows them to enter. Nixxin lies on a bench; Brondu and William look at him. "I've been flying for over an hour; let me rest."

William pulls Brondu so they can leave Nixxin alone. "Hey, people might steal your things!" it echoes around the tunnel. Nixxin covers his ear; once the echo vanishes, he falls asleep.

Once he woke up, it had been two hours, and he woke up in a carriage. William looks at him. "What happened?"

"You fell asleep on the bench," William said like he is whispering.

Nixxin looks at his eyes. "You serious?" William nods.

"Oh my god." Nixxin covers his face and raises his hair. Brondu is sleeping in the front seat, as the coachman in front looks at the sky; it was noon at that time, but they don't have anything for them to eat.

"Arghh...", Nixxin yelled as he stretch his back inside the tavern, Nixxin goes straight to the kitchen to eat while William opened the tavern, Nixxin pick up the steak and put another, he cut the steak and eat it. Brondu comes back to the tavern with his children and wife. Nixxin looks at them while William is eating right beside him.

"Good evening, mad people!" Nixxin calls out as he enters the library with William.

Util looks at him from the second floor. "What is it, Feauv?"

Nixxin looks above. "It's boring. When will we have a mission in here?"

Util picks up a book and scrolls through page two hundred nineteen. "Three days," he reads in the book; it was a random guess, because he never has a boring time except for this week. "Btw, Aeolous said there were many delinquents earlier after you guys left."

Nixxin looks near the shelf and picks up one book and scrolls to chapter 58. "Who are they?"

Util continues reading the page and stops when he hears what Nixxin said. "I don't know them."

William looks at the book in the middle, full of red roses. He wants to open the book in the middle, but he stops as he thought it might be a really important book for the library.

Nixxin looks at Brondu. "Again? I'm already tired."

Brondu taps his shoulder. "Come on, man, it's not that far."

Nixxin sighs. "Can't we just call Sats?"

Brondu tries to stretch his wings. "No, we can't; he is still on their campus."

Nixxin shakes his head. "No, leave alon—"

Nixxin stares at the tiles on the floor while Brondu is walking around looking at the rooms. Brondu agrees on buying the house; he buys it so they can get a mission easier because their tavern is so far from Sky City Tavern.

Brondu looks at Nixxin. "We need to buy a teleportation tab, perfect for small things like paper so we can get it easier and faster. Then, tomorrow we will hire three people: one for getting the mission paper, one for organizing, signing, and sending it to our tavern, and one for guarding this house."

Nixxin stands up; he didn't hear anything. He just knows they're going somewhere else. Nixxin flies Brondu up to the nearest advanced city. Brondu shows Nixxin pairs of teleportation tabs, but Nixxin only picks one; it was priced for only one hundred twenty.

Nixxin looks at Brondu wandering around the house, wondering where they can put the tab, and then Nixxin asks, "Who's guarding this house?"

Brondu thinks for a second, "I think—" "Yeah, you can also go to this address; that is one of our members, his name is Satsuegishii; he is an eighteen-year-old boy; it's near the house." Brondu says to a four-positive-tiered man named Kevin.

Brondu looks back at Nixxin. "Kid, lift this guy and his bags." Nixxin grips his hair, after flying multiple times in a day, but he still flies Brondu again back to the headquarters. Nixxin fall on the couch while Sats and the new member is on call.

Brondu in the middle of the room pick up a microphone, "So, I have two news for you, which one do you guys one first, bad news or good news?"

Everyone yells for the good news first, "Alright, alright." He pause and breath before telling what happened, "As you all know we faced a problem about mission after the hero station in our city have less and less missions because of the sky city giving less mission after our guild become popular... The good news is now we have a station in the sky city who will get mission, and welcome our new member Kevin."

Everyone clap and welcome the new guy, after everyone clap Brondu continues, "So he is a guard in the station, and tomorrow I'll go and find people who's going to do the jobs of getting out mission from the sky city and deliver it in our tavern. But... The bad news is that, well we aren't really sure about this. But, there's people in lurking around our guild, most of them had tattoo of blade anywhere in their body, we don't know what it means, but has anyone know sees them?"

One girl one of Johan's friend named Sasile raise a hand, Brondu sees her hand raise, "Yes Sasile."

Brondu throw the microphone to her, she cought the microphone, and check if it's alright, "Hello... So oummm... Earlier in morning I saw one in the cafe, he isn't really doing anything he is just reading articles just like other people in the cafe, he looks like a decent guy, he is wearing a casual outfit, but he has one on his ear."

Sasile throw the microphone back to Brondu, "Thank you for sharing you experience with us, so as you guys heard, we are being observe by those guys, so we already plan about this, once a conflict happened near the head quarter our old man will open the door down to the bunker so everyone can stay safe... Again just enter this room and you'll see the door opened although you can't actually see it in here, and don't worry our old man is always in here, so he can open the gate easily.", After the announcement Nixxin eat a ton of meat and rice before sleep, he needs it so his back muscle can recover faster and he can regained his energy.
