Chapter 149: Before the start of another Hunt? (2)
"Big Sis, aren't you the one who taught me all this?"
Alicia felt perplexed as she didn't think she had ever taught him how to flirt with other women, so why was he telling her she taught him that? Getting no answer while thinking, she decided to ask him.
"When have I taught you to do something like this?"
Aiden, hearing her words, decided to enlighten her.
"When you gave me so many romance novels to read and said I should learn from them."
Alicia remembered the time when she had given him all her collection of romance novels and told him to read everything so that he'd learn from the novels how not to fall for other girls, as all those novels were about a protagonist falling in love with someone else, not his own sweet little sister who loves him.
'How could those stupid protagonists in those novels not wait for them to grow up like I have done?'
'Luckily, I have the best little brother who understands my feelings; otherwise, who knows what I would have done?'
While she doesn't know the secret about her birth, she is already way past that and doesn't think she even wants to know now when they've already come this far.
She felt a little irritated, as those books have done their job, seeing how he only loves her up till now, but she has still received some friendly fire from those cursed novels.
'I'll burn them to ashes if I ever see any of those again in my life.' She had thought she would manipulate him a little when making decisions about him getting other women so that their bond would always be the most romantic one, as she would create small problems for them.
'This doesn't break the rules, but my little Aiden has already become a playboy.'
She pinched his stomach hard, feeling frustrated, and huffed while doing it, keeping her silence, not intending to talk to him for now.
"Ouch!"
'I need some zombies to kill; otherwise, it will be hard for me to be calm.'
'I'll let those ugly monsters know the price of making me mad.'
Aiden feeling the little pain from her pinch and now, seeing his sister not talking, decided to ignore her for now and get ready for their hunt. He told the other ladies to follow him to the armory as they had to refill their supplies.
Alicia also followed him as usual, walking right beside him. She knew that from now on, she would have to see sights like those she had just seen, so she had to learn to be calmer. If she were capable of satisfying him fully, it wouldn't have come to this.
'Argh, why does my little brother have to be such a monster?'
Reaching inside the armory, Aiden told them to refill their supplies, but while the other ladies were refilling the supplies, Ava came up to him, still having a little bit of a sweet blush on her face but appearing much calmer now.
"Leader, we have to pick some cold weapons. Can we take them?" Ava had asked this, as without his permission, she couldn't randomly pick a weapon since he had only ordered them to refill their supplies.
"Yes, you have my permission; you guys can pick whatever you like."
Hearing his approval, Ava showed a small smile she usually wouldn't show, unknowingly affected by that little pat, which had made her feel more comfortable in his presence bit by bit.
While walking back, informing all the others that they could choose whatever weapon they liked, the thought of receiving more of his gentle pats appeared in her mind, but she erased the thought with a blush on her face.
'Why are you thinking like this, Ava? You shouldn't think of getting pats from your own leader; this is so out of order.' For the first time in her life, Ava felt that keeping things in order wasn't so good.
Ava had become the focus of attention among all the other ladies, including her own sister and Daphne, who was preparing herself for her fateful day.
They watched every single one of their vice leader's actions since the time she got that unexpected pat from their handsome leader and was even called cute by him.
They didn't know how she did it, but now every one of them thinks she was always a wolf in sheep's clothing. Noticing the look on her face earlier, they could tell she definitely had some feelings for the leader.
While informing them about picking up the cold weapons they liked, Ava noticed the weird gazes she was getting from everyone, and the most bizarre of all was her sister Isla, looking at her as if she'd seen a god, with a look of worship and awe she couldn't hide.
'I don't know how this happened or why it happened, but here I am now, getting these weird gazes as if I'm some strange creature.'
She didn't know how to feel about this. She loved the pats he had given her earlier, but she wasn't sure if this could be called love, as she had never experienced something like this and never watched those romance dramas like all the others.
She had no idea what to do, so, having no idea, she decided to do nothing at all and focus on following orders as she always had, ignoring her sister, who was still staring at her with sparkling eyes, as, unlike the others, she already had a weapon and she didn't have to pick a new.
Almost all the women had chosen swords, as they had all trained with knives under the general for years, so picking up swords felt more natural to them. Only the two snipers chose bows and arrows for themselves.
The reason they became snipers was that they weren't good at fighting as it came last to them, like Ava, and having been snipers for years, they felt more comfortable with bows.
Now everyone had chosen their weapons and other supplies, but while they had cold weapons, they didn't think they would be able to use them much for now.
Aiden, seeing them ready, led them to the storage where one-fourth of the total amount of food was stored, as most of the supplies were stored in different sections.
Entering inside, Alicia knew where they were, and she also felt good that her brother didn't forget to bring food this time because she didn't want to starve like yesterday.
However, the other ladies watching could only see large containers used in shipping; they didn't know what was in these many containers. The size of the room was quite big, but they couldn't tell how big, as they walked beside the large containers, their eyes unable to see the end.
Reaching a red container that wasn't far from here, Aiden stopped; there was no lock on the container, as the room itself was a giant safe.
Checking the large code printed on the side of the red container, Aiden confirmed this was the one he was there for, so he ordered the ladies to open the container.
After hearing his command, they started opening the container, and after a minute, it finally revealed what was inside, expectation filled their eyes as they were dying to know what crazy thing their leader would show them now.
