The life of a Haughty Prince - Chapter 33
“I hope we could discuss more about your idea tomorrow.” Said Bela with a rare cute voice.
“Haha…..That won’t work on me now, “Madame.” According to the contract, three days a week remember?”
“Che…had to try.” Bela said with her usual domineering voice.
“Don’t worry I will prepare a file in the within four days, so be ready.”
“I don’t want to wait that long but I have my busy days too. So what are you ganna do for four days straight?”
“Ohh….I didn’t tell you. I will join the adventures guild.”
Bela was surprised for a sec but changed her reaction right after.
“I didn’t think you to be an adventurous man. You know There’s no adventure in the adventures guild here. You just complete missions and haunt monsters, which is practically very rare. You can only find some goblins and Hyenas and possibly hob goblins. So don’t waste your time but come here instead.”
“Hhhmmm…..you are right I guess.”
“Right, so why don’t you come tomorrow as we…..”
“Where’s the place with the most monster activity then?”
Bela just looked at him with puffed chicks and pinched him very hard.
“Oooouu!!!!!….what’s that for?”
“you want be a hero or something, killing all the monsters, saving maidens, Huh, you want to have daring adventures with a possibility of death roaming around your head.
Let me be truthful. You are wasting your talent trying to be an adventurer. Are you trying to be powerful. You know your ‘blink’ ability is already broken right? Plus you have my protection so, don’t worry and stay by my side. So Mr. Prince what do you say? Come tomo… mmmnnnn.”
Atlas didn’t let her finish her sentence and just outright kissed her and not just a simple one but a full on passionate kiss. After a minute of extremely long tongue kiss. He finally let her lips go.
She was breathing hard with famished cheeks and dreamy eyes like she wanted more.
“Thanks for caring, Bela. I appreciate it, but I have to be strong for my own reasons, ok?” Atlas said with full determination and seriousness.
Bela felt a different aura around him like she never felt before. She knew when someone gave this kind of vibe as she experienced it herself many, many times. She slowly nodded and hugged him and kept a grip on him for a couple of seconds.
She let him go after a while and took out a black card from her storage ring, which surprised Atlas as she rarely uses her space ring. She gave him the card with a little bit of hesitation but gave it to him after a bit of dithering.
“when you go to the adventurers guild. Go to the counter and give this and when they ask for a code or reference just say “The devil’s witch.””
Atlas was there in confusion for a couple of seconds.
‘Wh…. what the fuck is going on?’
“Don’t worry, it’s just a reference from me. They will give you unique but dangerous quests step by step after they accept you in with that card, but be careful.
Don’t ask why or don’t ask how, so just take the card.”
“But….”
“you haven’t even given me your real name remember?”
“Touché…thanks , I’m really grateful.”
Bela was still contemplating if she had done the right thing or not. She was pushing him in a serious matter but the determined and the burning vibe he just gave, made her think she did the right thing and he also has talent in magic and if he stays here all the time. His ‘blink’ skill will only be wasted.
She only gave him the card with that skill in mind thinking he could escape most of the troubles if he wished.
“Ok bye, see you after four days then.”
“Bye…..be careful.”
“Don’t worry …..”
Atlas walked away from her office and went down from the elevator. Everybody knew the elevator was only for the Madame but most of the staff and workers were now used to the new assistant using it.
Half of the staff didn’t even realise that he used the elevator as he always used his aura concealment. The staff who knew about him either had mistakenly touched him or who got near him enough.
As he was walking near the exit. He saw the usual guards but there was someone else standing by their side.
The two guards with heavy armour all over their body. The logo of the company pasted on their front and their backs. They both had knives at their sides and a long magic bounded spears on their hands.
They were more or less had the most fine quality armour and weapons provided by the company increasing their overall confidence and ego and now they were asking or bothering one of the female staff there. He only sighed looking at their ego driven behaviour and walked near them slowly undoing his concealment technique. As he walked near them, he surprisingly realised the women was Elsa.
‘i haven’t met her in a while, have I? Hhhmmm…..Bela really kept me busy these past three days. She is really trying to control me, Whatever, let’s see what’s going here.’
“So what do you say miss, will you go out with me for the night.” Said the guard with a short brown beard.
“Don’t listen to him. We are in the same age, aren’t we? Join me and let’s go to the pub near by. We can have some fun there.”Said the young looking guard.
“Uu..umm….sorry, I..I really have to go home for no..now.”
One of the young looking guards took the hesitation as a shy acceptance and grabbed her hand.
“Don’t worry. You can take care of that later. Come on. We both are young, we shouldn’t waste our youth like this. Let’s go grab a drink.”
The bearded guard had already given up thinking it would be really bothersome for her at the rate they were bothering but the young man wasn’t that smart and instead pushed his limits grabbing her hand even tighter.
“Pl..please leave my ha..hand.” said Elsa in pitiful tone.
The young man was now getting irritated. Many other women would just spread their legs for him when he said he worked at the “ATC” and the staff here would flirt with him time to time boosting his already blown ego but this one girl was not following him at all.
He kind of had a thing for her, seeing her the past few days and thought to ask her out but the rejection wasn’t sitting on him well. He tried to use his Normal bloodline aura to threaten her a bit, when suddenly another aura hit him from his back. All the smugness and arrogance left his mind, filling it with fear.
He slowly turned his rigid body to see who he had mistakenly offended only to see the mysterious assistant of their Madame. He wasn’t like the others and knew about him from the first day as he most of the time saw him entering from the front door with their boss.
‘I’m fucked…’ he thought.
Atlas placed a hand on his shoulder instantly making him kneel on the spot.
“You should be delicate with Ladies, you know, and more specially to our staffs as they are all under Madame’s care. You insult the staff you insult our boss. You should know as you are one of them.
I will let this one slide as you are a young lad. So be careful from now on.”
“Ye..ye..yes si…sir.”
“Good…..”
“M..mr prince…”
Atlas turn over listening to the reminiscent shy voice.
“oh, isn’t it Miss Elsa, long time no see.”
“Ye…yes….Thank yo..you.”
“No need to thank me. It’s part of the job.”
“N..no…I really mean it!!….umm..um.. Mr.Prince ..wo..would you like to ha..have a drink wi..with me?”
The guards were surprised to hear those words came from her. They were trying to uhu her the past couple minutes but to no avail but when this man comes she was already down for it.
Atlas thought for a second as his schedule was mad right now and with his own personal works were piling up but he looked at the cute and innocent look of Elsa who seems like she was ganna cry as he was taking his sweet time.
‘Sigh….Women really are bane of all men.’
“Of course why not. It would be my pleasure.”
Elsa finally smiled with sparkles around her green eyes.
“Shall we go?” said Atlas giving out his hand.
Elsa instantly became nervous, her cheeks slowly turning red.
“Um..umm….ye..yes.”
Elsa took the hand and started walking Merely with him.
The guards were watching with jealousy, but what could they do, nothing, but to watch their back as they go farther away.
Someone was also looking at their back from the wide window of the seventh floor. She thought she would just see him just a bit more from the window but was faced with the whole drama.
She was not just gazing them with simple jealousy on her eyes. She was looking at them with intense emotions mixed with rage, envy and little bit of bitterness.
She tried to control her emotions thinking they were only going for a drink. She knew he was a flirtatious person. Speaking with every woman with his natural enticing behaviour and she also knew about Elsa, how much reserved she was. So there was nothing wrong with that.
But her palm was pressing harder and harder on the magic and damage sustaining super hard glass.
She wanted to go back to her work and leave it be but couldn’t take her eyes out of their fading backs. Slowly crackling sound came from the glass where her palm was.
The superhard glass started to crake until it reached its frame but she let go, on the final moment saving it from total destruction.
“I hope you save your prayers my dear assistant, the day you return, the work load will be doubled for you.”
