After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply-Chapter 688 - 485, Lia’s lover?! (No green)_2
Chapter 688: 485, Lia’s lover?! (No green)_2
At the thought, Aiko’s frown eased.
…
…
“So where are you taking me? There’s no one here now, you can tell me, right?”
On the second floor corridor, only the moonlight shone in from the outside.
Lin Da looked awkwardly at the figure in front of him.
A red-haired girl in a formal dress who was several heads shorter than him, was holding his hand and pulling him forward.
While it wasn’t the hand-holding like he did with Monica or Lulu, but merely a simple urging him to move faster. The softness and warmth in the girl’s palm were as real as any he had felt from any other woman.
In the three years he had lived in Snow Goose, Lin Da had never held hands with Lia. The current gesture was probably due to her being drunk, but realizing the fact that they were holding hands was undoubtedly a bit embarrassing.
Lin Da cleared his throat and moved his hand, reminding Lia.
Lia seemed to really be drunk, oblivious, concerned only with pulling his hand to move forward.
Lin Da thought Lia’s action was unintended, but he didn’t know that Lia’s face was as red as a ripe apple from the orchard, and he wasn’t sure if it was because of the wheat beer or something else.
“It wouldn’t be good if someone heard us, come in.”
Lia stopped in front of a room with a cat-shaped plaque, which carried four sloppy big characters: Do Not Disturb!
“Hmm?”
Seeing this door, Lin Da sobered up halfway.
Wasn’t this Lia’s room?
Since their relationship grew increasingly strained due to strategy reasons, he hadn’t been in Lia’s room again.
Lin Da pointed to the second-floor lounge, “Let’s go there instead.”
“No need, Klrona might go there.”
Lia turned back and looked at him provocatively, “What, you’re not scared that I will harm you, are you?”
“What?”
“You were lucky to win at the Star Rank, but at Moon Rank, I’ve mastered a new rare technique called [Flame Dance Together]. It uses Fire Series Battle Qi to condense an energy phantom that can perform an attack move identical to mine.
Aside from the downside that it doesn’t benefit from Super Charge’s power increase, it’s almost a perfect move.
The next Ten Stars is mine.”
Seeing the surprise in Lin Da’s eyes, Lia’s smile grew even sharper, “You can run if you’re afraid.”
“Afraid of you?”
Lin Da laughed.
He had always been accommodating and patient with Lia but had never been afraid of her.
“Then I must take a good look at how messy your room is. You’re not hiding any dirty books, are you?” he joked.
Lia’s eyes widened, “Don’t talk nonsense, I would never look at those things.”
The door wasn’t locked, and Lin Da, walking ahead, pushed it open.
Entering Lia’s room after many years, he felt strangely stirred inside.
The floor was covered with white tiles, the trash can held a new bag, the window was open, and the night breeze moved the white curtains.
A bed, a desk, a wardrobe, clean and simple.
Lin Da glanced around and noticed several small details. There were strategy papers filled with writing on the desk, seemingly given to Lia to review by Phyllis, with many red check marks or crosses indicating careful corrections.
Next to the wardrobe were several wooden swords with dented and misshapen handles, marks that could only be made by swinging tens or hundreds of thousands of times.
On the wall facing the desk was a poster, yellowed with age, depicting a man in a black trench coat.
Lin Da nonchalantly asked, “About the poster…”
“Oh, that guy is Dai Lian * Zhao Wo, an adventurer from the Royal Capital, it’s normal that you don’t know him.”
Lia excitedly told Lin Da about the exploits of Dark Shadow.
All about how he crossed the 29th level unscathed, slew a legendary Seven Stars Magical Creatures, and tamed one unruly strong team member after another…
At his highest level, he was only at Limit Saint Level, yet the bounty for his hunting issued by Demon King’s Castle was comparable to legends.
Lia’s eyes sparkled, filled with adoring little stars, she concluded, “Such a person is a true adventurer! He’s my idol!”
“Cough cough cough.”
Lin Da turned rather uncomfortable, his face blushing.
Lucky the room’s light was off, and Lia did not see his discomfort.
“Stop! I get it, Dark Shadow is your idol, but did you call me to your room just to talk about this?
I’m sorry, but I despise those imperious, self-aggrandizing adventurers like Dark Shadow. I’m sure his teammates all hate him to the core.”
“What? What do you know about Dark Shadow? It’s all your wild guesses. He wasn’t being imperious, but trusting in his own strength.
In my opinion, if he hadn’t disappeared, he would definitely be a legend by now.”
Lia rebutted angrily.
“Fine, fine, fine, you’re right,” Lin Da didn’t want to argue with an idiot, “Mention Dark Shadow again, and I’m out of here.”
“Missy here isn’t done talking!”
Lia grabbed Lin Da’s wrist in one move and, with a push, pinned him to the edge of the bed.
Had this guy had too much to drink?
The idiot girl’s pretty face was up close, her dress slipping down, and although he couldn’t see anything, Lin Da still involuntarily averted his eyes.
But he caught a glimpse in the corner of his eye, a white teddy bear lingerie near the pillow, and unused sanitary napkins tucked in the corner. Lin Da’s scalp went numb; this really wasn’t a place for grown men to enter.
“If you have something to say, say it quickly.” Lin Da was eager to get back to avoid being misunderstood by his teammates.
“If you were very familiar with a friend who wanted to take an Oath with you, would you agree?”
“Huh?”
Lin Da tilted his head, turning into a walking question mark.
“You came to me to discuss romantic topics? Wouldn’t Klyne be a better choice?”
“Um… aren’t you the Ultimate Pervert, with a lot of experience? It’s better to ask you.”
Lia sat in front of the desk, fiddling with a lock of her long hair with embarrassed movements. The light was still off, and if one were just using their eyes, they could only see her reddening earlobes.
Sss… Even Lia, this single-celled tigress, has entered mating season, ready to date?!
Lin Da’s mind was struck by tumultuous waves.
Aside from surprise, he felt a sour taste in his mouth, as if he had just licked a lemon peel.
A scene suddenly appeared before him where Lia, dressed in a white wedding gown, hanging a happy smile on her little face as she took an Oath with some blond guy in a church.
The good mood from attending the party vanished instantly.
“Alright, I’ll give you some advice.”
Lin Da didn’t ask Lia who this “romance” was with, instinctively wanting to avoid talking about that guy.
“So answer quickly, if a very familiar friend wanted to take an Oath with you, would you be willing?”
Lia’s voice became softer and softer.
So her lover is a “familiar” friend.
Lia was a training fanatic, aside from adventuring and practicing swordplay, she occasionally sneaked out to buy strawberry cake. Her friends could be counted on one hand, and Lin Da pretty much knew them all.
A blond figure leaped into Lin Da’s mind.
Oru had Klyne already, so it wasn’t Oru.
Beyond that, there was only one man left in Snow Goose.
That guy who took over as Healer and presumptuously called himself her teacher, Phyllis.

Lin Da felt a bitter taste in his heart. Just as for him, Lia was no longer one of the most important people, a blond guy had moved into Lia’s heart as well.
Maybe he didn’t just see Lia as his old team captain.
After pondering for a while, Lin Da replied, “First see if the person is smart. Personally, I wouldn’t want to take an Oath with an idiot; it would bring a lot of trouble to myself and the team.”
Lia breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Smart.”
“Are they good-looking?”
Lia: “Good-looking.”
“Then forget it.”
“Huh?”
“Because we’re too familiar.”
Lin Da spread his hands, saying, “If a very familiar person wanted to bed you, you’d definitely feel weird about it, right?”
Lia, confused, said, “Why?”
“Would you accept it if Oru wanted to bed you?”
“Definitely not!”
“What about Phyllis?”
“Also not!”
Hmm?
Lin Da froze.
If it’s not Phyllis, then who was the familiar person in Lia’s words?
“There has to be someone else!”
Lia glared at him tenaciously, with a strange glint in her eyes.
She bit her lip, her voice suddenly becoming hesitant, “If, if Missy were to marry someone else, you, you wouldn’t have any thoughts about it?”
