Hidden genius: Black belly snake

Chapter 381: Between a rock and hardplace Part3

"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to tell you. My bunny girl is stronger than you Xander!" 

"So of course, I hired her to accompany us as our personal guard. Any objections?" Xavier grinned.

How could that even be possible?

Xander looked at his brother who nodded his head vigorously and then gazed up and down at the bubbly rabbit woman in front of him.

He used his soul sense to probe the bunny girl, but it seemed like his brother was indeed right.

He was not able to sense anything at all. 

Normally, even though most people hid their strength and level, he was still a Demi-God and unless the person was at a similar realm, he would easily be able to see through them.

But the bunny in front of him was like a fog. He couldn't see through her.

Xander then quickly tried to see through someone else's cultivation, a random passerby who had crossed them and even that proved fruitless.

"Te he! Handsome. What are you looking at? Let's go?" Raphina, the bunny girl poked Xander on his nose teasingly.

She thought that the elf looked just a little too cute being all dazed and confused.

However, her small action sent a tremor down both Xavier and Charlotte. 

Both their faces darkened and Xavier immediately lifted the bunny girl up with his hands and placed her behind him, hugging her tightly.

"Brother! No! Let's not make a commotion just yet. Remember why you are here!" He bowed and cupped his hands in front of Xander, expecting a full-on shit storm to ensue.

Even Charlotte gulped in fear. She took a few steps back, not wanting to get caught in the middle of this.

Seeing everything happening around her, Raphina was puzzled. Why was everyone acting like this? 

"Ah~~ Did I do something wrong?" She lifted up to put her index finger in her mouth and sucked on it. 

But weirdly, against everyone's expectations, the elf smiled instead of unleashing hell on the bunny.

"I am sorry to have made the lady wait. Let's go." Xander simply smiled and muttered.

Xavier clutched a pillar next to him and wiped the sweat off of his forehead. He felt like his soul had left his body and returned back.

As Xander started walking ahead, looking around. He pulled back Raphina and whispered. "My brother is a bit weird in the head. He doesn't like to be touched." 

He awkwardly chuckled and warned her to prevent future mishaps.

Raphina innocently smiled and nodded in realization. "I am sorry, my honey bun." She pulled Xavier close and placed a big wet kiss on his lips making the elf blush.

Both Xander and Charlotte silently walked ahead, ignoring the things happening behind them. 

They couldn't even roll their eyes at the elf as he had beaten them both fair and square in bringing everyone up to speed about this new place.

Besides, Xander was already used to his behavior and Charlotte was not exactly a stranger to him as well.

The group then walked over to the town center where they had a big 4 storey building named 'Adventurer's tower'.

On seeing the structure, Raphina pulled Xavier and dragged him in playfully, and the others followed behind the two.

"This is where we can buy good quality supplies. You guys have money right?"

"Of course, my darling." Xavier beamed.

"Te he! Alright." Raphina giggled before tapping her long fingers on the desk in front of the shop assistant.

"Bubul! Give me some healing potions, and strength potions."

"Eh? You are heading out, Raphina? What a surprise." The shopkeeper, who was a bear man smiled back.

"Yes. Yes. We got some new visitors to town today. So I thought that I will be hospitable. Te He." 

Raphina giggled and leaned over the counter to reveal her bouncy chest, which instantly made the man blush.

Standing at the back, Xavier nudged his brother. "Look bro, she is even getting us discounts!" He flashed a proud grin, making Xander's mouth twitch.

"Mhm." He silently nodded.

"Umm. Kind sir, do you also happen to have a map of the land?" Charlotte asked, smiling gently and her voice flirtatious.

Bubul once again blushed and smiled back at the second beauty before heading in to bring all the items.

"Yuck! How pathetic! Trying to copy my girlfriend?! Tch. Tch." Xavier clicked his tongue, which Charlotte ignored and started looking around.

The ground floor of the building was obviously a sales shop for the various items. 

The various shelves were decked with different consumable items, some of which she recognized and some of which she didn't.

There was a spiral staircase in the back, which clearly lead to the other floors in the building.

Charlotte walked over to it and was about to climb when another shop assistant loudly exclaimed. "Girlie, you have to show your medallion before heading up."

The elf immediately paused and tilted her head to the side revealing an adorable smile. 

"Ah~ Ah~ Mister, I just want to take a peek up." She fidgeted with her fingers nervously, which made her look even cuter.

Both Xavier and Xander blinked, unable to believe the woman's talent in laying down honey traps.

But unfortunately, it still didn't seem to have worked. The assistant only wryly chuckled and shook his head.

"Sorry babe. You know I can't let you go. Take a look at the missions board. I saw some easy ones this morning."

"Finish them and get enough points and soon I can take you up there myself. Aha ha ha."

"Yay! Awesome!" Charlotte clapped her hands and revealed another big smile before she turned around and her face returned back to a somber expression.

However, she only looked more beautiful with the serious look which made Xavier wonder why she even bothered acting cute in the first place.

The three elves walked over to take a look at the missions board, which the other shop assistant told them about, while Raphina lazily leaned against the desk, watching them in amusement and waiting for the items.
