anwhile, in the Imperial City of Phoenix Empire;
Sowhere in the Hangu district where the Genesis Weapon store is located, there was a huge old building being renovated for the past couple of weeks.
It was once a restaurant belonging to a wealthy individual but due to so reason, his restaurant went out of his business and he neglected the place altogether.
At the mont, the building and the 8000 sq. m of land beneath it is in Mark's na, although it was bought by Alina using the money given by her master.
After purchasing the building and hiring the experts to renovate it to suit modern style architecture according to the mories of Mark, she contacted the Song clan about the developnt of the area around.
If the surroundings are dirty, who will co to the restaurant and eat the food? That's why she wanted to take the help of the Public works ministry.
Fortunately, everything went on her way and the area was currently being cleaned around and the installation of fire lamps and electricity is being done at a rapid pace.
Inside the kitchen that was completely renovated, Alina was busy cooking a dish. She was swirling down the ladle for a few tis and took an ample amount of soup with a piece of at.
"It's good but it's too normal… I need sothing that will bring those wealthy individuals to this place and also bring business (weapon sale) to big brother. Hmm…"
After thinking for a while, she wrapped up the cooking practice and left the place. In about 15 minutes, she reached the guild district and started looking for sothing.
Because she was wearing graceful clothes and not armor like the people roaming around, she looked like a client. And her beauty did attract the attention of passersby, male and female alike.
A couple of adventurers approached Alina who appeared to be searching for a specific guild.
"Miss, may we help you?" asked an adventurer.
Alina spared a glance at him and said, "A guild called Ace. Did you know it?"
The two adventurers looked at each other and shook their heads before the guy asked, "Are you looking for soone or are you looking for a guild to post a mission?"
"Both," replied Alina in a cold tone upon spotting their lustful gazes. "Now, if you can't help , then, don't waste my ti…"
Disgusted by the way they are looking at her, just like the other n, Alina didn't bother to stay there and proceeded to walk.
An adventurer suddenly grabbed her arm in a hurry, "wait… I can hel…"
Before he finished his sentence, Alina twisted her hand and grabbed his wrist with her grabbed the arm, and swung it over her shoulder.
The adventurer was slamd onto the ground and instantly beca unconscious. "You must be tired of living." She comnted as she glared at the adventurer at her feet.
The other adventurer was shocked to see the incident. Earlier, they just thought that she is a civilian of the middle or upper class. But, seeing how she casually knocked a 4-circle realm Spirit Warrior, the adventurer quickly realized that they fu*ked up and imdiately apologized to her.
As he begged for rcy, Alina stared at him for a while and spoke, "alright. I will forgive you but you will do one thing."
After a while, both of them were seen following her like guards as she entered the Ace guild.
A few hours later;
The sa day noon;
Allen and Lin Xue were at their guild to do so missions as usual.
They have done eight missions so far and all of them were successful. The two of them also beca closer than ever due to spending ti with each other in their free ti and battling their enemies or monsters in their adventures.
And now, they beca quite inseparable. Except during their sleep ti and bath ti, Lin Xue and Allen could be seen together, almost every minute of the day.
So people detested it while so just passed it off by seeing Allen as her bodyguard. Whatever the case, neither Lin Xue nor her father minds it. So, no problem has co between them.
Just like every ti, the pair of adventurers walked to the mission board to pick up a couple of missions in the sa region.
As they were contemplating on which one they should choose, the manager of the guild approached them. "Lady Lin, Mr. Allen…"
The both of them looked at him.
He said as he handed a piece of note to Allen, "An important client requested your services. It's a bodyguard and hunting mission. If you are interested…"
Allen looked at it and said with a look of surprise, "This address… it's my sister's."
"Eh? Your sister?" The manager appeared to be shocked for so reason. On the other hand, Lin Xue bead with delight, "Alina's? I guess it must be for her restaurant's business. Let's leave right away. It's been a while since I last saw her anyway."
While it appeared like Lin Xue was interested in the hunting mission, the reality was sothing else. She just wanted to et Allen's sister to impress her. Earlier, she did that while trying to help her in cooking but she failed miserably. But, if it is hunting, then, it will be a good opportunity to redeem herself.
As the both of them left in a hurry, the manager stared at their backs in a daze, "that demonic lady is his sister? There was a stark difference between these siblings. The guy is soone who looked much more disciplined and never disagree on sothing unless it is necessary. On the other hand, that girl uses violence and threats at the slightest of disagreent." The manager shivered, thinking about Alina while the backs of Allen and Lin Xue disappeared.
About an hour later, they entered the building in the middle of renovations and found Alina in the middle of cutting down onions into thin slices to improve her cutting skills further.
"Hello, sister…" "Ms. Spencer…"
Alina looked at them and let out a smile, "it's been a while, Allen." She didn't respond to Lin Xue for so reason, maybe, it has to do with the fact that this lady is bad at cooking and never gave a proper fight in a one-on-one battle against her.
Putting her feelings aside, she went on explaining to them the details of their upcoming mission.
"So, it's like this. I need ingredients for my recipes. Hence, we are venturing into Sector-4…"
