Volume 15, Drifting Space, Chapter 17, Against the Heavenly Sect
"Avril?"
Vic's sister has the potential to be an assassin, so Gu Yao gave her to his master's wife for training. Unexpectedly, Emma fell in love with her and accepted her as her apprentice. However, in order to consolidate her loyalty, Gu Yao agreed to meet once every two months.
.
A few days ago, the two of them agreed to meet.
Vic continued: "Master, not long after my sister left, she comes here to see you every month, and she often talks about you."
Even though Vic was straight-faced, he could still see that his sister treated her master very differently, so he couldn't help but talk about these things to Gu Yao.
When it comes to Avril, Gu Yao feels quite guilty. Such a beautiful girl in her prime has been used as a tool by him, and even took away her innocence.
But Gu Yao's emotions were not shown on the surface, but he said calmly: "How is the progress of your sister's martial arts?"
"She is very strong, much better than me!" Vic is not jealous at all. On the contrary, he is happy for Avril and can spur him to work harder: "Especially in the past few months, every time my sister comes over, it seems like she has changed.
Personally, Master, you will definitely be surprised if you see her."
Gu Yao nodded: "Oh, that's good." With a ninja as his teacher and a strict and demanding master mother Emma, coupled with Avril's strong and tolerant personality, it was expected that she would advance by leaps and bounds.
"I should be able to finish the matters at hand in two months, and I will meet with her then."
Hearing this, Vic said: "That's great, Master. My sister will be very happy to know that you are back."
After returning to the union, Gu Yao continued to accept tasks as a thief rather than a union cadre. After returning from the devil world, his strength and experience have entered a new stage. The task went smoothly. Nothing was difficult for him to obtain.
.The points increased rapidly. Soon he entered the ranks of S-level thieves.
In fact, there were still some days left before the scheduled meeting with Avril every two months. So Gu Yao stayed in the Thieves Guild in the dungeon. From time to time, he took time to go to the stronghold to guide Vic and others.
As soon as Gu Yao left the Demon Realm, he left the Thieves Guild for more than half a year. According to the rules, the union had to withdraw from the position of cadre. But rules are dead after all. If you have connections, you can be accommodating.
That lady, who is familiar with Gu Yao and is also an S-class thief, is a highly respected veteran of the Thieves Guild. After she opened her mouth, the union has to give some face. Besides, it doesn't matter if there are more low-level cadres like Gu Yao or one less.
Influence. As a result, his cadre qualifications have not been lost and he still has the right to handle affairs.
"Sister, what's going on? I haven't seen you for so long. You are getting younger and younger. If this continues, I will be very embarrassed."
On this day, Gu Yao was chatting with his teacher in the union as usual. He also wanted to see what news he could get from her. Influenced by his job, he gradually became interested in secrets.
It was this skill of flattery that made Master Nai break the rules and come forward to discuss with the senior management to reserve Gu Yao's place. Hearing that she was greatly benefited, happiness bloomed on her face: "What's the problem?"
Gu Yao said seriously: "What I am embarrassed about is that in a while, should I call you eldest sister or little sister?"
"Little brother, your mouth is so sweet, hahaha..." The teacher's wife laughed happily and covered her mouth with her hands. She made an elegant appearance of a young girl, but it was a pity that it was not very consistent with her age.
Seems nondescript.
Then she let out a long sigh: "Hey, I don't understand why, except for you, my little brother, everyone else in the union is like a piece of wood. It's so boring!"
The people in the Thieves Guild were not as old-fashioned as she said, but they pale in comparison with a guy like Gu Yao who is so shameless and good at flattering, which made the master complain again and again: "I mean, little brother, you have been here for the past six months.
Where are you going? It’s so boring to leave my sister alone in the union.”
The master's tone of voice was similar to that of a young girl, but Gu Yao had long been used to it and said with a smile: "There is no way, there are some things at home that need to be dealt with. You know, after all, family members are more important than work."
"That's true." Master Nai nodded, but did not continue to ask. The family background of a thief is a big secret, and no one who is a gossip will mention this issue.
"Little brother, if you have relatives, you must cherish them. Sister, I have been an orphan since I was a child. It is not easy to find a good man, but the dead man died early. Oh, my life is really miserable!"
Gu Yao said sadly: "That's a pity, but eldest sister, don't forget that I am your little brother now."
The master's wife was even more happy when she heard this, and said hurriedly: "That's right, I have long regarded you as my biological brother."
Time did not create a gap between the two of them. Gu Yao narrowed the distance with a few words and became even more cordial than before. Seeing that the heat was about the same, he began to change the topic: "By the way, eldest sister, what happened during the days when I was not in the union?"
Interesting news?"
"Of course. As you know, there are so many people in mainland China, and countless things happen every day. Don't worry, let's talk slowly!"
Gossip is inherently a collective product, otherwise it would lose its meaning. The gossip that had been held in Master's heart for more than half a year made her very uncomfortable. It was rare that Gu Yao came back and had someone to talk to, so she chatted with him.
, I can’t wait to tell all the gossip of the past six months in one go.
What Shi Nai is most interested in is nothing more than the scandals between wealthy and famous families. This is a topic that she will never tire of and enjoys, and it even includes gossip about Gu Yao.
Duanmu Qing, who had been missing for more than half a year, suddenly returned to her family, and she also brought back a man with whom she was said to have a very unusual relationship. Of course, this kind of news could not escape the eyes of the Thieves Guild. The Guild even dug up Gu Yao's information about the Holy Academy.
, and speculated that he and Duanmu Qing fell in love for a long time during their internship.
Duanmu Qing went to Alcatraz Island alone for Gu Yao, and then Gu Yao came back to find her privacy. Her privacy was found out by the union. It can be seen that the Thieves Guild is indeed very powerful in terms of sources of information, but the inside story when it comes to the devil world is not clear.
, after all, only a few people know about this matter.
This scandal obviously weighed heavily in Master's mind, so she spoke in great detail, gushing endlessly, frothing at the mouth, and from time to time she would insert some speculations that made Gu Yao laugh or cry, but she didn't know that the male protagonist of this gossip was there.
before.
As the person involved, Gu Yao was of course not very interested in Shi Nai's half-true and half-fabricated story. Seeing Shi Nai's non-stop trend, he coughed dryly and said, "Sister, I want to ask you something."
Interrupted by Gu Yao, Shi Nai, who still had something to say, reluctantly stopped gossiping: "Little brother, if you have anything to say, just ask. Sister, I will definitely tell you if I know."
