Apocalypse After

The Party that Was Waiting

Mr. Lenka's words stunned Alexander.

“You really got me in trouble, my friend. Isn't that a bit overdone?” he said while shrugging his shoulders.

Looking at Alexander who pretended to be helpless, Mr. Lenka burst into laughter. He approached the man and patted him on the shoulder. After which, the middle-aged man led Alexander as he said, “As you suggested. I changed one house specifically to be used as a party and auction place.”

“Oh?”

Alexander was a little surprised. He did not expect that Mr. Lenka would actually follow his advice until such time.

The two then walked towards a mansion beside the main headquarters of Cursed Lambs. In addition to the main headquarters, some of the surrounding buildings did belong to Cursed Lambs. More precisely, hired Cursed Lambs from Blood Cross.

The house that Alexander went to was a two-story building that could be said. Some things around were cleaned. In the front yard, there were several tables and chairs. Can be used to sit back while talking to members of Cursed Lambs or guests.

When entering the house, Alexander was immediately surprised to see some rooms whose walls were destroyed. Making a large room that resembled a spacious hall where many chairs were neatly arranged, there was even a stage. This place will obviously be used for auctioning goods.

“In addition to one building for auction, there are three other buildings for party. As you said, one building to entertain the leaders of the group. A building for the people who come with the guests. While the last building is used for the guards so they can rest. Make them can switch guard shifts to continue ensuring security,” said Mr. Lenka with a proud expression on his face.

“...” Alexander was surprised, but was nowhere to be seen due to the mask covering his face.

“What do you think? Is this satisfactory?” ask Mr. Lenka.

“Satisfying. Of course satisfying.” Alexander shook his head. “I didn't even think you could make it this good.”

“Hahahaha! Then I can be relieved. By the way ... I invested a lot of funds Cursed Lambs for this,” said Mr. Lenka casually.

Although it sounded relaxed, Alexander clearly understood what the middle-aged man meant. He replied, “Tenaknya my friend. I can assure you that all your efforts will not be in vain. Even make you get many advantages.”

Alexander's reply clearly made Mr. Lenka seem pleased. But the middle-aged man immediately shook his head and said, “I don't care if the profit is a little, even if it is a draw (no profit or loss). It's just, you have to remember the reason I did this right, V?”

“Of course I won't forget it. Rest assured ...” Alexander looked right into Mr. Lenka's eyes. “Those ‘nobles’ will definitely be surprised. Didn't think you could do something like that.”

“Hahahaha!”

Mr. Lenka laughed out loud. He patted Alexander's back hard. Despite not saying anything, his expression had described his feelings. Despite not knowing Alexander for too long, the middle-aged man was clearly happy and quite satisfied to meet ‘friend’ who really understood him.

Satisfied laughing, Mr. Lenka looked at Alexander and said with a grin on his face.

“Then I will hold your kind words, My friend.”

Date 15, month 5, year 401 of the Black Moon Calendar.

Without feeling it, time just passed. During this time, Alexander and his group experienced a lot of development. More precisely ... five other women because they had drunk another bottle of potion. While Alexander himself was still the same, he had yet to find the ingredients of a level 4 evolution potion.

The evening before night.

Inside his room, Alexander prepared. This time he'll use V's identity. Only, the man did not have a showdown as usual as he was about to attend the party.

Alexander was dressed as an ancient nobleman with a blood-red top decorated with gold stripes and ornaments. He was wearing black leather pants and boots. The man was also wearing black gloves. As for the mask, he did not wear his black mask, but a silver mask with one hole in his left eye.

For the final touch, a beautiful sword hung on the left and right sides of Alexander's waist.

It was just that, he still used a black robe to cover everything. Make it easier to camouflage, come and go comfortably. Of course, he would take off his robe at the party to make it look more formal.

After preparing everything, Alexander set out. Go to the party that Cursed Lambs held for the high-class free hunters in Shelter 1. To show nobles that they (free hunters) are not as low as those people imagine.

At about half-eight in the evening, the figure of V finally arrived in front of the Cursed Lambs headquarters.

There, Alexander took off his robe and carried it in his left hand. Many people looked surprised when they saw his arrival. His unusual appearance but carrying an elegant impression made him even more prominent. The man casually took out an invitation letter and handed it to the doorman.

“Let me check it for a moment, Sir!” say the guard with respect.

After a while of checking, the guard saw the name V was clearly listed on the guest list. Although surprised, the man immediately calmed down. He did not expect at all that the person in front of him was V who was highly valued by his leader.

“Sorry to keep you waiting. Your name does exist, and following the Chairman's arrangements .. Please follow me sir. I will take you to see the chairman,” said the guard.

“Good,” reply Alexander lightly.

Alexander then followed the figure of the guard. Entering the building, he was immediately greeted with an amazing view. Unlike the noble house or something like that, the place looked rather ordinary. But not a mess at all.

Quite a lot of people came, making Alexander start to think that the idea turned out to be quite good. Exceeded his own estimate.

Compared to Alexander's formal attire, those people's attire was no less good. If from the shape, the man's clothes actually seem more ordinary because ...

Most of the guests who came were wearing their best combat clothes. So rather than a feast for eating and drinking, the atmosphere was even more akin to a gathering of mercenaries. Many of them were wearing armor, some were covering the body with assassin-like robes. Some even wear full-plate armor!

Looking at the appearance, Alexander could not help but complain in his heart.

‘I really almost forgot that they didn't get any etiquette education or anything like that. At least they came with their best looks right? Should be ..’

The corner of Alexander's lips twitched.

‘It's not that bad ... right?’
