CHAPTER 26: IRRESPONSIBLE HUNTER UNION

ORIGINAL Author: Chaos

SPINOFF Author: Vester

10 Days to Annual Practical Examination.

After practicing his spells Mo Fan went to the Hunter’s Union.

_Huh? Where’s Sis receptionist?_ As he entered the Hall of Hunters, there was no one at the receptionist counter.

He glanced around but he couldn’t find her. So he boldly went into her cabin as she had allowed him. They even had tea before and also played games online. 

.....

Wang Xiulin’s aging ointment’s duration had finished, so when she was about to apply some more, A charming young man had arrived at her doorstep whose eyes were staring at her intently without blinking. He looked Enchanted by her. Her beauty was otherworldly! Like a lone beautiful mermaid sitting under the moon light in the middle of the ocean basking in its light.

Her beauty and curvaceous body was not losing to Tang Yue at all. Huh, but she seems a little familiar..?

The girl was staring at Mo Fan too. She had already investigated him, so she knew he was only a student and also knew his name was Mo Fan and was first year student in tian lan magic high school. 

She was startled when she saw her door opening, as she hadn’t given permission to anyone except him, and no one had seen her without the aging ointment, it will create unnecessary trouble.

“Mo Fan?! Sigh... Can’t you knock before coming in? Hurry up and close the door!” Wang Xiulin snarled at him. 

_Wait, Mo Fan? How did she know my name?_ Mo Fan wondered as his aliases was Fan Mo here and he also didn’t knew a pretty girl like her.

“Um, have we met somewhere? Or like who are you?” Mo Fan asked while staring at her without blinking.

“What are you... Oh right! You haven’t seen the real me yet have you?” She said while extending her hand as she realised he had never seen her without makeup.

Truthfully the makeup only degraded her beauty.

“Nice to meet you, I’m Wang Xiulin! 20 years old and Three Star Hunter Mistress. You can praise me now!” she said while bowing like a nobility woman from ancient era of England with a hint arrogance in her tone and her eyes glittering and asking how she looks?

Mo Fan was startled again. But somehow he nodded his head, because only she could act like this. 

_Wait a Three Star Hunter Mistress?! Seriously?! At that age?!_ Mo Fan thought as he was astonished by her. 

“So you were 20 years old... I thought the you were only an aunty who liked to act like she is young.” Mo Fan quickly made a poker face to not look surprised, otherwise he would be walking in her pace.

Wang Xiulin automatically came inside Mo Fan’s strike zone. She was incredibly beautiful, Mo Fan’s eyes would start to wander here and there from time to time.

“Huh!? Dude you seriously thought of me as an Aunty? What the fuck? Sigh... Forget it, but how about now? Don’t you have anything to say to me?” Wang Xiulin was quite clearly annoyed by him, how could he think of her as an aunty when she was only 20! But she asked him again when she noticed Mo Fan’s expression had become that of disinterest. 

“What do you mean?” Mo Fan asked as if he genuinely didn’t know of what she was talking about, though he knew what she wanted to hear he decided to play dumb. 

“Dude! Come on! How do I look? Aren’t you a high school teen? I’m pretty sure you have never seen anyone as beautiful as me!” She declared confidently as she puffed out her E-cups.

_Damn?! Holy balls of heaven! How are they so big! How is her shirt still holding them?!_ Mo Fan exclaimed as his eyes almost popped out when he saw them growing!

“You are indeed beautiful, but too bad for you I’m always surrounded by beautiful women. So I’ve gained a resistance to beauty of your level.” Mo Fan said while looking smug. Of course he was only lying. He was a virgin and a teen. Wang Xiulin was a Goddess level Fap material for him.

She was clearly not pleased with his smug face. She was annoyed.

“Hmph! If you’re not even a little bit excited by a beauty like me, then you’re not a straight man. I’m pretty sure you don’t need that little guy down there as well, right?” She said while smiling, but Mo Fan felt chill running down his spine as he noticed a dangerous blue aura being condensed on her hand, as a sharp blade of water emerged. 

“I... I’m  sorry you look very beautiful and stunning even to the point where I won’t hesitate to jump you if you’re unconscious. I was just joking before.” Mo Fan immediately apologized and said honestly in one breath.

“What?! You pervert~” She exclaimed while covering up her breasts with her hands, while smiling in a lewd way.

 “...” Mo Fan didn’t know how to deal with this woman.

“Ah Right! Here.” Mo Fan remembered that he came to give her the map. He had found all the tunnels in the South, West & Northwest. There were around 50 tunnels in the sewers. He had made a lot of profit by killing the rats beasts!

“What’s this?” She asked while opening the map, she noticed a lot of markings on the map.

“I found all the tunnels there were in those areas, all the markings on it are the places with tunnels, connecting the out side of safe zone. There are a lot of them and some of them are newly made as well!” Mo Fan wholeheartedly gave the map to her and explained.

“Fifty!? Why are there so many tunnels in a safe zone? What is the Hunter Union of this city even doing, if they can’t even notice this scale degradation of city! How irresponsible can they be?!” She said angrily.

Wang Xiulin never doubted Mo Fan as he didn’t have a reason to lie and he gave up the map instead of asking a reward for his finding.

She was not an ungrateful person whether he wants it or not the reward money will be given to him but the contribution points will be hers, and she also found a lead on her investigation. A small city shouldn’t have so many tunnels inside their sewers made by monsters. This was either caused by Someone (Black Vatican) purposely or this was the negligence of the irresponsible Hunter Union. Either way she will be promoted for this if she brought this to the higher ups.

“You... Are you sure you want to give this to me? You will be rewarded handsomely for this.” Wang Xiulin asked Mo Fan with a curious look.

“Its fine, I’m not after wealth right now. I was born in this city, so I do have a feeling of wanting to protect it. Besides I have some suspicions of something (Black Vatican) behind this.” Mo Fan said righteously as he pondered about something. No matter how he viewed it this matter was indeed too strange.

He knew that even if he did submit it to the higher ups himself, either someone else might monopolise his hard work by claiming they found it, or it will be covered up by the mayor to not damage his city’s reputation, or no one will listen to him a novice hunter OR he will be killed on the spot if Black Vatican finds him and they catch him ruining their plans if they WERE actually behind this. 

So he chose the safest bet which was Wang Xiulin, he will rather give it her than to anyone else. To be honest he couldn’t care less of about this city. He and his father had suffered a lot of injustice here. 

When Mo Fan was 12 years old, his father was miserably beaten up for Mo Fan’s mistakes. He promised to pay them back a hundred times ever since he became a mage.

But he couldn’t just abandon the city as there were a lot of innocent people in this city and he knew that Black Vatican were also on the move, so he would rather give the map to someone who was trustworthy and probably not from Black Vatican. That’s why for the past four-five months he quietly observed Wang Xiulin and judged that she was not from Black Vatican.

But he couldn’t understand why she would hide her face up till now. She had been doing exactly the same as him only a little more advanced! He was disguising because he didn’t want anyone to know his face in case he got involved with Black Vatican directly. But why would she do it? 

_If she was a member of Black Vatican, then I would’ve been killed on the spot when I saw her true face. But she didn’t silenced me instead acted casually like always and it seems she know a lot of things about me too!_ Mo Fan Guessed.

“Mo Fan... You might get Fifty million for this information. Not only that but your rank might rise as well!” She suddenly said some false information to test him.

Mo Fan who was pondering in his mind had a slight smile on his face but he suddenly froze. His smile stiffened. 

_Shit! Fifty Million!! Why am I so stupid, how could I give her that valuable information for free_ Mo Fan cursed himself inside his head. He quickly regretted his decision but what’s done was done.

“S.. so what?! Do you want the map or not?” Mo Fan asked decisively with a calm expression. He was having a huge headache though.

“Is that so! Well Thank you for your generosity then~ Hehe to be honest, Fifty Million is nothing to me an Advanced Mage. But since you’re being this generous I have no reason to refuse” She saw through Mo Fan’s act and immediately started teasing him~ 

“Ugh..” Mo Fan almost slipped hearing her words. 

“Hehe~” Wang Xiulin giggled pleasantly.

“By the way... How did you knew my name? And why are wearing a disguise?” Mo Fan asked while he was removing his stuffy heaty wig and mask, since she already knew him there was no point in keeping his disguise. 

“Hmm~ do you REALLY want to know?” Wang Xiulin asked in return with a smile.

“I... I Did at first but for some reason I don’t want to know now...” Mo Fan sensibly backed off as he saw her smiling face. He felt an ominous foreboding when he saw her smile so he didn’t probe any further.

“Good decision! Don’t worry~ I’ll tell you when the time is right~” She said when she saw him sulking a little as he slumped down his back on the sofa.

“Huh? What are you talking about?” Mo Fan said while he stuffed his face with the potato chips from a packet that was lying down on the floor. He slumped down because he wanted to pick it up. But he was smirking a little.

“...” 

“Pfft~ hahaha, it’s really fun teasing you~” Mo Fan said while laughing at her.

“You!!” Wang Xiulin’s face was beet red because she was blushing in shame. She indeed did not have that much experience with men, that’s why she was so easily teased by him everytime.

She quickly sat on the sofa and grabbed the controller lying down and said, 

“You better be prepared because I’m going vent my frustration on you!” 

“Haha yeah right! You always say that and always lose horribly!” Mo Fan rebuked her mercilessly.
