Chapter 24: Chapter 22. Glory’s First Comission

An unknown time passed quietly, Aurora slowly opened her eyes and yawn, "It's really comfortable to sleep, huh?"

She glanced around and saw Claudia kneeling on the ground and rubbing her left and right knees constantly, the expression on her face was about to cry.

"What are you doing?"

"Leader, you finally woke up!" Claudia was moved to tears when she heard Aurora's voice, "I… sob… apologized to the captain... then leader fell asleep... so… sob… I wait until leader wakes up…."

"..."

Seeing this silly girl, Aurora didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Aurora stretched out her hand and pulled her up. Probably because her feet were a little weak after kneeling for too long, Claudia staggered and accidentally threw herself into her arms.

"Ahhh! Leader, I didn't mean it!" She screamed, blushing, and hurriedly stood up.

"It's fine."

So soft… Aurora turned her head away so that Claudia couldn't see her blushing face, reached into her pocket, took out a pair of gloves, and threw them at Claudia.

"This is for you."

"Eh?"

Claudia caught the pair of gloves and looked at them with a mesmerized look. They were a pair of beautiful woman's gloves. Not only were they exquisite in appearance and neatly crafted, but they also felt particularly smooth to the touch. The fur used for making these gloves must be particularly good.

"Leader, what is this?"

"Well… this is a thank you gift from me for your hard work until now. Thank you for your hard work along the way."

"But Leader…"

Aurora directly blocked Claudia's words before she could refuse. "Just accept it and don't think too much. Don't worry, I don't spare a single gold other than for its material. I made them myself."

"Well...thank you, Leader!" Claudia solemnly put away the gloves and asked, "What do we need to do next?"

"Of course, we need a base where we can rest and work. We can't afford to stay in a hotel all the time."

"But leader, we don't have any other bases anymore. The previous base… Captain Gard has already started to reconstruct it as a shop. If we want to buy a new house as a base... I don't think we can do it for the time being."

"Don't worry. I already have a solution, just follow me." Aurora pushed the door straight out.

Claudia was relieved to see her confident demeanor and followed her closely toward the Mercenary Association.

When they reached the lobby, she saw Aurora walking straight towards the second floor and stopping after reaching the door of Henrick's office.

"Leader?! Are you asking the president to beg for he—" Before Claudia could finish her sentence, she saw Aurora kick directly toward the office door. "Heeeeee?!!"

Boom!

The door of the office was kicked open, and there was a loud noise when the door collided with the wall. The noisy mercenaries below fell silent, staring at Aurora, who kicked the door open as if they had seen a ghost.

"Bastard! Who dared to kick my door!" Henrick's roar sounded from inside at this moment.

"Damn old man, it's me." Aurora stepped in under Claudia's shocked eyes and sat down on the chair in front of Henrick without any politeness.

"Damn you, wild girl! What on earth are you trying to do! The transfer of the mercenary group has been completed, why don't you hurry up and complete the comission!"

"Old man, of course, I came to you for something. I'm not so bored to waste my time visiting a noisy old man, otherwise."

"No way! No way! There is no way I will agree with you to postpone your mercenary group qualification assessment! Just, wait until you are forced to downgrade, you stinky brat!" Henrick slapped the table and roared.

"Hey old man, why in the hell do you always jump to conclusions? When did I ask you to postpone the assessment?"

"What?" Henrick's word stuck in his throat.

He stared suspiciously at the impatient Aurora in front of him, and doubt filled his mind. 'According to her current circumstances, she should've come for this matter, shouldn't she?'

"So… What the hell are you trying to do?"

Aurora leaned forward a little, shortened the distance with Henrick, and lowered her voice. "President Henrick has received some special requests these days, I hope you will give me that request."

"What?!" Henrick's eyes widened. How did he know?!?

At this moment, Henrick's vigilance was raised to the extreme, and he was staring at the young lady opposite with eyes full of killing intent.

"It is well known that Earl Vidal's daughter contracted a strange disease many years ago and never recovered, so you should put your emotions away, old man. Don't worry, I have never done anything you think about now."

Aurora, who noticed Henrick's murderous intent, didn't take it seriously at all. According to what she knew about him, the old man would not mess with her unless she was proven to monitor and infiltrate the Mercenary Association.

"Hehe, I don't understand what you're talking about at all."

Henrick's killing intent disappeared instantly, and he leaned on the back of the chair and tapped his fingers on the table, pretending to be stupid.

This damn old man is still so shameless.

Aurora despised the shameless old man in her heart, but he didn't have that much time to play a fool's game with Henrick here. She estimated that Pittman and the other two would soon attack the passing caravan.

"Old man, you don't want to have to deal with Earl Vidal's message every day, do you? Are you really confident that you can overcome the strange diseases that even priests and doctors can't solve?"

"What Earl Vidal, I don't know what are you talking about. I don't know!" Henrick pouted and put his feet on the table, "Even if I know, I can't leave the matter to you!"

"Oh? Really... Then we will wait and see. The guess should be almost here..."

A mysterious smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Aurora's mouth, and the two sat on the chairs looking at each other. The room was suddenly engulfed in a very weird atmosphere.

Even Claudia, who was standing outside the door, retracted her head and patted her chest lightly, thankfully, she didn't follow Aurora in.

Not long after, the sound of hurried footsteps on the stairs attracted Claudia. She took a glance and saw a man in a black deacon costume hurrying towards him, then walked into Henrick's office.

"Lord Bastian, why are you here?!"

When he saw the man, Henrick quickly put his feet down and stood up, walking towards the man.

"President Henrick, the Earl can't wait any longer. Do you have any news about how to cure Earl Vidal's daughter?" Bastian's expression was not very good at the moment.

"Your Excellency Bastian, don't worry, we have sent people to look for information, and we will definitely be able to find out how to treat Miss Vidal in the near future." Henrick looked distressed.

"Okay, I hope it won't be too late! The Earl has issued a death order. If there is still no news the day after tomorrow at the latest… President Henrick, you can figure it out for yourself!" Bastian left quickly with a wave of his hand.

"Hehe, old man, since you're so busy, I'll take my leave first." Aurora stood up and was about to walk outside.

"Wait!"

Aurora's footsteps paused slightly and she turned around, wearing a look of surprise on her face. "What's the matter, old man, what are you asking me to do?"

"Do you have a way to solve Miss Vidal's condition?"

"Huh? How can I, a little brat who still pees in her pants, do things that even the mighty President Henrick can't solve?" Aurora smiled lightly and shrugged her shoulder, saying, "If there is nothing else, this missy will leave first."

After saying that, she was going to go out.

This little bastard!

How could Henrick not know Aurora's thoughts at the moment, but now even if he knew he was going to be ripped off, he could only grit his teeth and go for it.

"Tell me your condition!"

"Oh, old man, you're lucky. I happened to remember something when you said that. It seems that there is some way to cure Miss Vidal." Aurora sat down on the chair again, cross-legged. "But my memory is not very good recently, and I still need to ask the President for understanding."

After a long time, amidst Henrick's roar, Aurora walked out of the door with a happy smile on her face as she fiddled with the letter of recommendation in her hand.

"Leader?! What did you say to the president? It's the first time I've seen the president lose his temper." Claudia still had lingering fears when she thought of Henrick's flushed and furious face.

"It's nothing, I just received a B-level mission and... twenty silver coins as start-up funds."

"Wow, Leader! You are too wicked!" Claudia swallowed.

Twenty silver coins! Even B-level missions can't get that much money! No wonder the president was so angry...

For a brief moment, Claudia couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic to Henrick, how good if he were to agree from the beginning! Alas, there was no medicine for regret available in the store…

But twenty silver coins… twenty silver coins, you know!!

Claudia's lips curled into a kind of smile that a lady shouldn't have as she thought she will be a little rich lady soon…

Claudia snapped back into sense, quickly wiped out the smile on her face, and turned to Aurora.

"Leader... where are we going now?"

"Of course, it's a meeting with our employer." Aurora shook the envelope in front of her with her fingers.
