<h4>Chapter 267 - What Are Your ns?</h4>
Grey and Ae had awkward expressions while us and Void wereughing their hearts out. Grey knew us did this on purpose, but there was no way he could scold him in front of Ae.
"Oh, it''s you, the son of the mayor!" Ae almost eximed.
After us revealed he knew Cleo, she knew the sense of familiarity she felt was true, so when she calmed down while us and Void wereughing, she thought hard about where she saw him.
us'' handsome face wasn''t something one could see every day, and there was only one person she had seen that had left a deep impression on her with his facial appearance other than Grey and us, and it was the son of Lunar City''s mayor.
Cleo who us was speaking about, was her boyfriend. Her family and his family had close ties, and they had been friends since they were young. About a year ago, Cleo took her to a g held in Lunar City, that was where she met the charming us.
Being the son of the mayor made us a highly respected figure at the g. She didn''t expect her boyfriend would be friends would such an individual, and because of how free us was, made her have a great impression of him. Only, it had been so long that she saw him, so she wasn''t able to recognize him immediately. The fact that he was able to recognize her shocked her, to say the least.
"Yeah, I knew you would recall me. I mean, who would forget seeing such a face." us said with a yfulugh.
"If you''re standing next to him, it''s hard to remember you." Ae giggled while pointing at Grey.
After knowing that us knew her boyfriend, she was freer with him, especially after seeing his nature. There are only a few people in the world that would have a status like us yet still be so carefree. If not for the fact that she recognized him, she wouldn''t have believed he was the son of the mayor of such a big city.
On the way back to their living quarters.
"I know you did that on purpose." Grey said while they were walking.
"Did what?" us pretended like he had no clue about what Grey was talking about.
"You... I really don''t know what to do with you." Grey shook his head in defeat.
us was just a shameless individual, and there was no way he could get him to admit that he did it on purpose.
"It''s not my fault you misunderstood me." us said with a grin.
Grey wanted to argue, but thinking about it, was it truly us'' fault that he misunderstood him? The answer was no.
"Where have you been for the past two days?" Grey changed the topic as they approached Reynolds'' house.
"Oh, just bonding with my dad. You know I''m all he has, so he wanted to know about everything in the trialnd." us scratched his head with a sad smile.
They continued speaking as they got to Reynolds'' house. They walked right in without knocking. Other than Alice, the others pretty much act this way in each other houses.
"Hey Grey, I see you''ve finally been able to bring him back." Reynolds said while walking out from the kitchen.
"Nope, he came back on his own." Grey said as he took a seat.
us looked at Reynolds and couldn''t help but ask, "What were you doing in the kitchen?"
"Well, you see... I was trying to cook something." Reynolds revealed which threw us in a fit ofughter.
"Let me tell you something bud, there are things you can do, and there are things you can''t. Cooking wasn''t made for everyone, just let Grey do it." us said seriously.
Grey flicked his right hand and wind blew in us'' face, messing up his hair.
"But there''s no harm in trying." Reynolds shrugged.
"Hmm, I''ll leave you to your demise then." us sneered.
He didn''t know why Reynolds was even bothering, if it were something else, he would say there was a possibility he might be able to be an expert in it, but as for cooking, he should forget about it. Only monsters like Grey who were blessed by the God of cookery could attain something like that. And even if by some means Reynolds was able to learn how to cook, its taste would be either average or below average.
"So, what are your ns now?" us asked after Reynolds sat down.
"I''m thinking about joining the empire''s forces. Unlike you, I don''t have a good family background, so this is the best option for me and my family. Although, I''m also thinking about bing an Instructor. This is why I want to go back home and discuss it with my parents." Reynolds said.
At his current age and ne, he could take decisions for himself. But sometimes, it''s good to seek advice from those older than you. Once his parents tells him what they feel is the right choice for him to make, he would analyze it as well.
us nodded, expecting Reynolds to make such a decision.
"How about you?" us asked looking at Grey.
"I''ve not really made a decision yet." Grey smiled lightly, "I think it''s best we talk about this with Alice as well. It would be bad if she''s not included in this conversation."
"Yeah, I have an announcement to make. We should head over there now." us said, his previous yful smile was gone.
Grey''s gaze turned intent before nodding, just as they got to the door to leave Reynolds'' house.
"What''s burning?" Grey asked after sniffing the air.
"Nothing." Reynolds waved before trying to open the door.
us'' previous serious expression was gone because he was currentlyughing.
"I knew you didn''t have any chances of bing a great cook." Heughed out.
"Shit! My food!" Reynolds eximed before dashing back into the kitchen.
