I'm not a loser in love from Dimensional Adventurer

Chapter 244 The whirlpool of jealousy (4)

Summer Season July 7

Ander's restoration project has continued in recent days. In the hands of craftsmen from the Dragonwood Merchant Guild and Hel's Hammer, the city has gradually begun to take on a new look.

Starting from the central square, all the way to the junction of the upper city and lower city, craftsmen re-planned these places at an astonishing speed.

Large tracts of previously unused land were divided into residential areas, which more than doubled in size.The original small market place was relocated and moved to a wider open space.

In addition, according to residents, two chambers of commerce are gearing up to bring about a major change in Xiacheng District.No one knows exactly what it will turn into, and when people ask about the craftsmen, they always say something casually to avoid it.

This mysterious behavior soon caused waves of gossip, and almost all the residents of Ander were discussing the changes in the lower city.

At the same time, this behavior also spread to Pelgod.

Pelgard, this thieves guild that was originally hidden underground, "resurfaced" due to various coincidences.As mentioned before, the facade of Pergade had not been renovated at all, and after so many days of exposure to the sun, it began to deteriorate.

At first there were only a few cracks, but as the cracks further expanded, the gray wall began to fall off like fallen leaves.If you visit here on a windy day, you will definitely be covered in the wind mixed with the walls.

However, Pergede's bad state cannot last long. According to the construction speed of the two craftsmen's chambers, this "little trouble" should be solved before autumn comes.

On the other side, Pelgard was not only in a mess on the outside, but also in chaos on the inside.

Just last night, Pergaard was busy up and down.Not only did they welcome back the group of "missing people" today, but they were also surprised to find a brand new face.

But let’s not talk about Eva here, but let’s talk about other people.

Robinson immediately made a "Thank God" gesture when she saw Visian's face, and then she carried Visian upstairs at lightning speed.After she threw several piles of unprocessed documents on the other party's desk, the red-haired lady who had not slept for several days finally had a precious rest time.

She shrugged her head and walked downstairs unsteadily.Her boyfriend, Clyde, rushed up to help her, but unexpectedly he got a humanoid koala.

Clem couldn't help but dragged Robinson back to the dormitory downstairs with him.

They left, which also meant that the entire hall of Pergad became deserted.

There was no movement in the hall until the next morning.

Alice got up early, not because of her intention, but because of her rumbling stomach.

"So hungry..." she thought.Urged by her appetite, she went to the kitchen herself and spent a very short time making a simple meal for herself.

Now, she was holding a cup of black tea in her left hand and a tray with bacon, a noodle bar and a small half bowl of mixed cereals in her right hand.

These things are her breakfast. They are very simple to make, and judging from the fragrance emanating from them, they should be delicious too.

"Okay! It's time for me to eat my breakfast." Alice thought so and put everything on the table in front of her.

While eating, Alice felt someone passing by behind her and sat directly next to her.Her body stiffened, and the movements of her hands became a little less flexible.

It was Eva. Eva seemed to have gotten up very early today. She appeared in the hall full of energy and continued to launch a "harassing attack" on Alice with her gaze.

Alice and Eva began to sit side by side like this. During this period, Alice tried to move her seat, but no matter how far she moved, Eva always kept a fist distance from her.

This was very uncomfortable. After about 10 minutes, Alice put down the tableware in her hands.She couldn't help it anymore. The feeling made the hairs all over her body explode, and the food she stuffed into her mouth became like melted candles.

Not only is it hot to the mouth, but it's also unpalatable.

"Ahem, um... the weather is nice today." Alice cleared her throat pretendingly, and then used the worst possible opening line.

She originally came to talk to Eva with the idea that "if you don't get used to someone, it's probably because you don't understand the other person."However, she did not expect that she herself would lead the entire conversation to the most unacceptable situation.

"Weather? Ah, the weather..." Eva took the words thrown by Alice. She did not show any doubts or hesitation, but continued very naturally: "The weather here is very..." Not bad, just a little too dry.”

Alice smiled and nodded in agreement: "Yes, it is quite dry here in the interior after all."

While saying this, she was still thinking in her mind that Eva was actually not that difficult to get along with.However, not long after her idea was formed, Eva's next words made her feel at a loss.

"It's too dry. You see, my skin is starting to peel. Really, what if my skin is ruined." Eva sighed and stroked the skin on her arms.When she reached her elbow, she stopped and continued: "You too, you should pay more attention. We are all the same kind of people. If we don't take good care of ourselves, sooner or later we will be abandoned by others. .”

Alice choked because of these words. She picked up the tea cup and took several sips. After taking a breath, she managed to find her voice.

She didn't understand what the hell Eva was trying to say. Why did the other party suddenly talk about the weather and skin care, and then talk about skin care... What was abandoned?

"Well, you're right." Alice smiled awkwardly, looking down at the teacup in her hand.The black tea in the tea cup reflected her face. No matter how she looked at it, she was very satisfied with her current appearance.

Beauty is temporarily insulated to her, and she herself doesn't care that much about her appearance, at least not as much as Eva does.

Eva continued to nag in her ear. She kept saying something like "a woman's weapon is beauty" and "beauty is the means to win everything" and so on.

It made Alice feel a little sick to her stomach and made her wonder why she was talking to Eva.

Chapter 245 The whirlpool of jealousy (5)

Alice's wish to get close to Eva was beautiful, but this wish was shattered unexpectedly quickly.

Eva was still talking, and she was just talking to herself, not understanding Alice's feelings at all.Next to her, Alice wanted to bury her face under the bowl. She said to herself: "Leave her alone, leave her alone."

She and Eva had been chatting for almost half an hour, but during this period Alice only said less than ten sentences, and one of them was the sentence she started with, "The weather is nice today."

Eva is talkative, but a little too talkative.She could start with someone's unintentional behavior and then expand it to an entire race of people in three minutes.

She said enthusiastically: "I know that the people in the North are brainless guys. Look at them, they are so clumsy that they can't even compare to an orc."

Alice sighed, put down her spoon, and prepared to listen.

"Do you think they are really the children of half-orcs? If that's the case, then wouldn't we have even more reason to rush back to our hometown after seeing them!"

Eva's tone was particularly relaxed and cheerful when she spoke, and her tone was charming, but unfortunately every word she said was not so pleasant.

For some reason, Eva hates Northlanders.The people of the North do look different from the plains people due to the impression of their living environment, but they are not considered to be orcs...

"I think they are okay. But how do you know this?" Alice took a sip of tea and continued to ask Eva: "Aren't you... um, isn't your hometown also inland?"

Alice was almost about to ask, "Weren't you killed by the dragon a long time ago?"She still remembered Feier's words and the past he recounted.

As for Eva, Alice is not sure what the other person's memory actually contains.

"I just know, I've seen it with my own eyes!" Eva frowned angrily, as if she was very dissatisfied with Alice's questioning.

"But you..."

"No but! Don't you believe me!?"

Eva's emotions suddenly became excited. She slapped the table and stood up, with the corners of her eyes turning slightly red.After a while, she turned around angrily and went upstairs, leaving Alice sitting there with a blank look on her face.

"What? What happened?" Alice looked at the direction where Eva disappeared in surprise.She tilted her head, wondering whether she should catch up.

After spending this minute thinking, Alice decided not to ask for trouble.She continued to sit at the table and quickly dealt with the food she had not finished, and then she returned the things to the kitchen.

For most of the next day, Eva stopped following her. Although the process was a headache, Alice was still very satisfied with the result.

-------------------------

Three days later, on July 7, Eva found Alice again.

Same time, same place, and the same two people.

This time their topic revolved around the members of Pergade, and Eva talked to Alice one-sidedly like a normal person.

At the beginning of the period, she was describing the characteristics she discovered in other people.And in the end, the topic somehow turned to Ivan Bell.

"I don't like her. She gives me a strange feeling. I always feel that she will kill me." Eva curled her lips and looked at Alice with a look of resentment. She continued: "And the brown-haired one That man, Caschia, I don’t like him either.”

"Why? They are all very nice people..." Alice paused and asked, "Did they do anything to you?"

"Not yet. But for the time being, I always feel that they have evil intentions against me."

Alice carefully thought about some of the recent behaviors of their group. They rarely interacted with Eva, or they were all avoiding contact with Eva.Therefore, Eva's worries are almost unfounded. After all, they are almost bald from working on the alliance between the two countries.

"No, they won't do it like this." Alice put on a more serious expression and said to Eva half-comforting and half-reminding.

Eva did not listen to Alice, and she continued to claim that Ivan Bell had a smell that disgusted her.He also warned Alice to stay away from Ivan Bell.

At the same time, she also revealed between the lines that she wanted to win over Alice. She seemed to think that she was the "friend" worthy of Alice, even though the person involved had no intention of making friends with her.

Alice listened intently while stuffing food into her mouth.About halfway through Eva's speech, she began to lose focus, but luckily she became less restrained.

She ate very quickly, and she originally wanted to send the tableware back to the kitchen, but with a good upbringing, she still waited patiently for Eva to finish her words.

It's rude to interrupt someone else when they're talking, but when you've been listening to someone else complain for almost half an hour, you have to put your morals aside.

Half an hour later, Alice finally prepared a set of lines to support her departure from the scene.

"So, she looks so fierce..."

"Ah! I remembered! Vishian asked me to run an errand for him!"

After Alice said this, she immediately evacuated the scene quickly. This time she didn't even pack the tableware and ran away.

She did not go to Vishian as she said, but went to Ivan Bell, who Eva said had a "very bad temper and fierce eyes".

Alice and Ivan Bell are a good partner and good friends.All the members of Pelgade knew about this, and they all believed that it was impossible for the two people to fall out.

In fact, this is indeed the case. How could such a deep friendship be destroyed by the sudden appearance of a third party?

But Alice didn't plan to tell Ivan Bell everything about Eva, because that would be snitching.This is what she told Ivan Bell:

"Ivan, Eva seems to hate you very, very much. Wait...have I said this before?"

"You did say that. And what happened to her? Is she bothering you again?"

Ivan Bell leaned crookedly on the sofa in the room, she was lazy, like an animal that had just woken up from hibernation.

Alice sat down next to her, and she muttered a long paragraph to Ivan Bell, changing her silent look when she was with Eva...

2Chapter 16 Circus "Shadows of the Past"

After Alice escaped from Eva, she came to Ivan Bell. She wanted to chat with her good friend to offset the inexplicable irritability in her heart.

The two of them were lying on the sofa chatting. As they chatted, they mentioned the recent rumors circulating in Ander.

"Speaking of which, I heard yesterday that the circus that was traveling recently was coming." Alice said, turning over, her hands touching the ground, and one leg resting on Ivan Bell's belly.

Ivan Bell stretched out his hand and pulled Alice's leg down a little, and then replied: "Circus? What kind of circus? I haven't been out much recently..."

"The name seems to be... hmm, hmm? It's called 'Old Shadows', that seems to be the name."

"Strange name. Do you want to go to the circus?"

When Ivan Bell asked this, Alice cheered up.She and Starlight had made an agreement when they left Les Peno. Although she almost forgot about it, she finally recalled it.
