The Immortal Player

Chapter 74: Luring Killer Smile!



"In danger?" Faunia, Mathew, and Talia look to Pedro in astonishment.

"Uhmm..." Pedro smirked as he shifted his gaze to Faunia. "Don't worry! It was just some hunch by my senior!"

'Hoooo... That was close... Giving them more information will soon raise their suspicion on me. Fortunately, I bluffed my way out!'

"If Expert brother says so..." Mathew sighed.

"Anyway... We have to go!" Pedro glanced to Faunia as if telling 'Let's go.'.

"?"

"Seeing you here, meant that you have access to the Naga Kingdom." Pedro turned around with a smirk on his face. 'You rejected my offer. It's just really unfortunate!'

"Wait, Expert Brother! To be honest with you, we are lost at the moment and was only trying our luck exploring the area to look for a village. We tried entering the Kingdom but they denied us entry and required a certain amount of payment."

"Hmmm..."contemporary romance

"I was wondering... if... you could bring us with you? I mean... the more, the safer, right?" Mathew explained anxiously as he awaits Pedro's response.

"On one condition!"

"Condition? What is it, Expert Brother?"

"All corpses of anything we kill would be ours!"

"Agree!" Mathew didn't bat an eye and agreed to Pedro's conditions.

"Very well! Let's go!" Pedro started walking as Faunia rushed to his side.

'Oi... Human! Why did you bring those two with us?' Faunia spoke mentally to Pedro in an irritated manner.

'Relax... I saw potential on them. You'll see it someday. That's if they join us...'

"Hmph! Anyway... I am hungry! Let's eat now so that we won't do another stop along the way!" Faunia crossed her arms like an irritated kid.

"Hahahaha! Ok! Ok! Let's do that then... Can't you get me some wood?" Pedro burst as he took out a pot from his bag.

'Tsk! Ordering a goddess to do such things! You have no shame!' Faunia pout that looked like a cute daughter complaining.

'How cute!' Mathew and Talia can't help but be captivated by the cuteness of Faunia.

"Expert Brother, Let me do that!" Mathew smiled as he walked to Faunia and patted her head.

'Look what have you dooone! These humans think of me as some weak human child!' Faunia frowned as she grasped her fist as if complaining after feeling humiliated.

"I don't need your help on such measly task!" Faunia shrugged Mathew's hands and approached the nearest tree.

*Tak!

"..." Mathew and Talia were speechless after seeing Faunia cutting three parallel trees in one flick of her finger.

"I HOPE THIS IS ENOUGH!" Faunia drags two of the trunk towards Pedro that stunned Mathew and Talia further.

'Who is this Kid?' Mathew was only able to move a finger that accessed the interface to scan Faunia.

....

Name: ??? (???, NPC)

Level: ???

HP: ???

MP: ???

Stamina: ???

....

"WHAT?" Mathew was shocked beyond belief as his eyeballs looked like they were about to pop out from their sockets.

"Brother?" Talia was confused as Mathew can only point towards Faunia.

"What's the matter?" Pedro smirked as he looked to the flabbergasted Mathew.

'Your fate is sealed! You'll join me... But... in your own accord.'

"Who... Who is this little girl?" Mathew was filled with fear of Faunia as he glanced to Pedro.

"Hmm... My Pet!"

"YOU!"

"Eh? Expert Brother... You know how strong this NPC you are provoking?"

"Strong? OMG!" Talia scanned Faunia with her interface and the series of unknowns appeared. Her confused look was replaced with astonishment as she stares at Faunia.

"I'm just kidding! Just kidding! Hahaha! She was a lost child that I happened to come across and adopted!" Pedro bluffed.

"Lost Child?" Faunia frowned as she stared daggers to Pedro.

'Chill up! Just ride with the bluff, It would cause a lot of trouble if they learn that you're a goddess. Right, When we return to the ship, ask Tan to call you 'your highness' instead of 'goddess'. We don't want to attract attention as much as possible.' Pedro explained telepathically as he stared back to Faunia.

"Your daughter..." Mathew could only stare in disbelief as Pedro's reputation to them increased by leaps and bounds.

"Yup... my daughter! Now, time to cook for my 'cute' little daughter!" Pedro said in a sarcastic way as he started a fire and started cooking.

"This..." Mathew held his hand into his forehead as if saying 'What else is Expert Brother hiding from us?'.

Pedro started cooking as the other three sat on the log. After minutes of waiting, They wolf down the food and emptied out the pot.

"Expert Brother..." Mathew spoke to Pedro with a troubled look.

"What is it?"

"I was wondering... if..."

"if?"

"If I could hang around with you? I mean, I know it is rude of me to ask after rejecting your offer... but..."

"I can allow you to 'hang around' for one condition!"

"Name it, Expert Brother..."

"You sign a contract with my gaming studio!" Pedro smirked as he finished up returning his stuff to his bag.

"That... I..."

"No need to rush! Paperworks were still being managed anyway. For now, you can 'hang around' with me."

"Then, I would trouble Expert Brother!" Mathew smiled as the four of them stood and head towards the direction of Kagat Village.

...

Along the way they encountered and Faunia slaughtered monsters. Since he can't hide Faunia anymore, He decided to let her handle the monsters while he harvests some ingredients that he can use in cooking. Minutes later, they arrived at the cliff where Pedro and Madame Soledad stood and saw the beauty of Naga Kingdom.

"This brings back memories... One day! I'll build a castle on this cliff!" Pedro felt a tinge pain in his chest as he recalls the scene with his master.

"Oi! Stop spacing out! It's night already. At some point, we need to sleep!" Faunia complained as he turned around towards the direction of Kagat Village and the three were waiting for him.

"Sorry about that! Let's go!" He rushed towards them. 'to the Kagat Village!'

"Team Pedro! Here I come!"
