The Author's POV

Chapter 239

"Is it tasty?"

Grabbing Nola's little hand, I walked her around the busy streets. Right after leaving the waiting room, I quickly got changed and took Nola to see around the academy.

"Um."

Nola held onto the cone of the ice cream. Cream was all over her lips as she vigorously nodded her head.

"Don't make such a mess when you eat"

Taking out a handkerchief, I wiped the cream that was all over her lips.

"Uhh, stop."

Nola did not like that as she turned her head to the side and tried to avoid my handkerchief.

"Stop moving"

"Uhmm"

Softly grabbing Nola's tender cheeks, I wiped away every last bit of cream that was on her face.

"Alright, done. here, make sure you hold onto my hand tightly"

Because of the tournament that was happening, the current academy was extremely crowded. In fact, it was so crowded that I could barely see what was in front of me.

As such, I needed to make sure Nola held onto my hand tightly.

"You want this one?"

"Um, I want"

For the next twenty minutes or so, with Nola, I walked around the academy campus. On multiple occasions, I would stop and buy things for Nola to keep her entertained.

"I'd like one pl'”"

'”TWIIIING! '”TWIIIING!

At Nola's request, I made my way towards a cotton candy stall. Waiting in line for a couple of minutes, I arrived before the clerk. Just as I was about to order one cotton candy, my phone suddenly rang.

"Excuse me for a moment"

Letting go of Nola's hand, I rummaged through my right pocket and took out my wallet and phone.

Taking out a phew bills and handing them to the clerk, I answered the call.

"Hello?"

A polite voice answered the phone.

'”Hello, nice to meet you. My name is Simon Masquer, and I'm currently working for Moonlight Incarnation.

"Who?"

For a couple of seconds, the person on the other side of the phone didn't speak. It was evident that they didn't expect such an answer.

'”Keummm, Keummm, Moonlight Incarnation. We are a platinum graded guild. Have you perhaps not heard of us?

After clearing his throat, the person on the other side of the phone recollected himself and continued.

"Ah, I'm sorry. I, unfortunately, haven't"
