Chapter 311: Excuse me, I need to take this
"Then, do you also know the leader of the awakened agency?" Diane asked, deciding to bet on it. If Alice knew the chairman, then she’d know the leader, right?
"You mean Noah?" Alice asked and Diane closed her eyes, nodding her head. Sure she knew him. "We met for the first time yesterday, though. And don’t worry, I gave him a good smack on our behalf."
"You slapped the leader of the Awakened agency on our behalf?" Diane asked, shocked. "The leader of the agency? Why?"
Alice went silent, her hand stopped moving and she faced Diane with a serious gaze.
"Because of the numerous times we had to watch one of his corrupt men walk away with their pockets full while one of us had to suffer for asking for help. That... I could not stand it. So, I slapped him and sent him flying." She bowed her head and then raised it, waving it away with a silly smile. "But don’t worry, I healed him right after. He’s got a pretty face, you know. It’d be a shame to let it swell for too long."
Diane watched her silently. She had felt the weight of her words when she talked about how they walked away with a loot.
Seriously, she had been equally angry then, but she would not dare take a risk and hit such a strong man.
Maybe it was because she was not strong enough. If she were as strong as Alice, she would’ve been able to.
A small laugh escaped her lips and she said,
"A win for one is a win for all, I guess." She smiled. "Next time, I’d like to watch for myself. I’m sure it’d feel really good."
"Maybe you can watch our fight later. The council members of the association still act like stubborn, old, dissatisfied geezers and want to ’test’ my strength. See for themselves how extraordinary I claim to be."
