Mike, already used to her antics, nodded with a smile.
However, when he turned around, he was almost knocked to the ground by Sterling.
"Holy shit! Holy shit! Mike, what’s going on between you and the evil witch? Damn!"
Rafael raised his chin, resting his arm on Mike’s shoulder, his expression arrogant. "Stop jumping around like a monkey."
"You!" Sterling clenched his fist, sticking out his middle finger.
Mike was quite surprised this kind of swearing already existed even in this era. But he shouldn’t be too surprise since this world was somehow actually quite modern in some cases.
Rafael reached out to grab the middle finger, planning to twist it, but Sterling quickly jumped back.
Mike shook his head.
Rafael, on the other hand, stuck out his tongue. "Give me ten coppers and I’ll tell you an exclusive piece of gossip." That was directed at Sterling.
Sterling’s expression shifted, his excitement calming. "Why don’t you just open a robbery shop and start stealing in broad daylight?"
Rafael shrugged. "Are you sure you don’t want to pay up? This is literally the hottest exclusive gossip you’ll ever hear. Only I know about it. And it’s a matter between Mike and the evil witch. You sure you don’t want to know?"
