Fate Online: Shadow

Chapter 351 - Absurd Request

Due to the heavy traffic, the couple only arrived at the mall after almost two hours.

"This country really has very small roads with houses and buildings just one or two meters away from the main road, my god!" Amana complained after getting out of the car as she felt suffocated inside during those two hours with nothing to do.

"I probably could’ve gotten a level during those two hours," said Amanda with a frown on her face.

Michael just held her hand and quickly brought her inside the mall while saying to her, "Anyway, you still have till seven in the evening before your quest, right?"

Suddenly holding hands and walking side by side with him, Amanda couldn’t help but feel her heart flutter a little, and couldn’t help but reply with a bit of stutter.

"Y-yeah"

"Come on, let’s go to the movie theater and see if there’s anything good to watch right now," Michael smiled as he quickly led Amanda towards the third floor, where the movie theater is located.

And along the way, there were a lot of eyes curiously looking over towards them, and it’s not only because they are foreigners but because the two of them are very attractive people according to the beauty aesthetics of the locals in the country.

It’s like how western people think that eastern people are very beautiful, vice versa.

"Whoa, aren’t they really good-looking?" one of the young men who had spotted them from afar said with a laugh to his friends.

"Yeah, especially those huge bonkers on that woman man!" said another young man.

"Shucks, I’d love to swim in those! Uhmm!" laughed his other friend as the second young man and he gave each other a high five.

"You three are really damn perverts" the only girl among them sneered at them with disdain as she couldn’t help but feel embarrassed for her friends especially when passing people heard their conversation and looked at them weirdly.

But when the girl looked at Michael, she felt that he somehow feels familiar, "Wait, that guy looks familiar"

Her guy friends rolled their eyes at her and said, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, you always say that whenever you see a good looking guy"

"Shut it, he really looks familiar though! I’ve seen him from somewhere before!" angrily said the girl as she flipped the magazine that she’s reading to the next page.

But what she didn’t notice was a familiar photo from the previous page, because it was a photo of Michael back when some guy approached him on the streets and asked him if he ever wanted to become a model.

"But he really looks familiar though" mumbled the girl before shrugging her shoulders and continued reading the magazine in her hands.

"How about this one babe?" Michael said as he pointed at the poster that has a man with an iron suit, a guy with a round shield, followed by another guy that has a hammer along with a red cape.

Amanda rolled her eyes at him as she couldn’t believe the movie her boyfriend is suggesting for them to watch.

"What are you, a kid? Let’s watch Avatar instead, the world is almost similar to Nevareth Continent" suggested Amanda after criticizing Michael for his movie choice.

"Really~? Well, suit yourself, but we’ll have to wait for another hour and a half before we can watch it from the beginning" said Michael after looking at the schedule for the movie today.

"It’s fine, we’ll go shopping instead while we wait! I can’t wait to look at the clothes this country can offer!" said Amanda excitedly while her feet couldn’t help but fidget at the thought of shopping for some clothes.

’Shopping with their girlfriends...it’s the most hated enemy of men!’ thought Michael as the edge of his lips couldn’t help but twitch just thinking of the long hours men needed to wait just so their girlfriend can be satisfied with the taste of their clothes.

Then Michael suddenly remembered something that he had almost forgotten, "Right, but before that, let me make a quick phone call, yeah?"

"Okay, make it quick" replied Amanda as she already started walking towards the nearby clothing store.

Michael walked into a corner, pulled out his phone, and called.

And a few seconds later, the call was answered and the familiar voice of someone sounded from the other side of the call.

[How may I help you?]

"Daphne, it’s Shadow," said Michael in a soft voice that only he could hear while watching his surroundings just in case someone is able to hear him.

"..."

There was a few seconds of silence before the other person on the other side of the call replied.

[What do you want?]

Michael chuckled when he heard her tone full of bitterness with a tinge of anger.

"How much for hiring two eight-wheeler cargo trucks?" Michael quickly got to the point as he didn’t want to waste any more time.

[Did you kill so many that you needed two cargo trucks to dump them?] replied Daphne with a sarcastic tone.

Michael snorted, and said, "Get to the point woman, how much for those two trucks?"

[Tsk, you’re no one fun, and right, you’re such a troublemaker. Killing five in the span of one night, just what you would expect from a fellow Two Blades] Daphne said with a chuckle as she also wasn’t expecting for Michael to make his move that very night, and killed five of his targets and caused an uproar in the country.

Soon after saying that, Daphne quickly got to the point and said, [Ten gold coins for the two trucks, and they’ll go to any destination you want them to go]

"Right, I also have another request, can you prepare a lot of cargo boxes for storing things like clothes and toys. Maybe around fifty or so boxes" Michael quickly added.

[...]

[Do you think we’re like those courier services?] said Daphne with annoyance after a bit of silence on her end.

"Uhhh...yeah," said Michael like it was a matter of fact.

[My god, I thought you were planning to smuggle weapons or something through us, that’s why you were asking for cargo trucks] Daphne felt frustrated as this is the first time she’s dealing with someone like Michael who doesn’t act like he’s an assassin at all!

"Are you done?" Michael said after listening to her complaints.

[Fine, we’ll get the boxes for you and send them anywhere in the world for free, but this is the first and last time we’re doing this for you!]

Toot! Toot! Toot!

After saying her piece, Daphne hung up the call in anger.

But not even a second later, Michael’s phone started ringing, so he picked it up and heard Daphne’s voice.

[So, where am I sending them?]

Michae laughed at her blunder and replied, "Star Mall"

[Alright]

Toot! Toot! Toot!

Michael brought his phone away from his ear and looked at it while laughing.

"Michael, are you done?"

Amanda leaned half of her body out from the entrance of the clothing store as she called out to Michael.

Michael quickly walked towards her and said, "Yeah, I just asked a friend to send a couple of cargo trucks here"

"Cargo trucks? What do you need it for?" Amanda asked while examining the clothes in her hand while the store clerks kept a watch over them.

"I’ll buy some clothes, children’s clothes, some toys and maybe food too," said Michael after thinking about it.
