Chapter 24 - Chapter 024 : Two Hearts

A few minutes later.

Black was serving drinks and meals to each table. Vera was filling up the empty cups that he brought to the counter. Too theme focus he was working himself through to the bone moving from each table to another. A slight laughed coming from Ladros as he gazed towards Black; It was good to seeing Black working that much hard on anything. 

Vera glance with admiration at Black as he was working more hard that everyone she had with; But it was his first day, was he going to return tomorrow. 

Sitting from the far table on the corner a angry glance was looking at Vera. The angry glance came from Riley who was clinching her teeth and hands on the table. She was not comfortable in seeing Black and Vera exchanging glances at each other. Sitting beside her Sonia she was faintly laughed at her. 

"How dare she do this, who does she think she is," Riley stated with hard tone. Her angry expression was still on Vera. Sonia shook her head with confusion, she did not understand what she was mad for?

"What has she done for you to say that? I do not see your issues with her, so what is the problem?" Sonia asked with a firm tone.

"Do you not see what she is doing right now, she is..." Riley pointed her finger towards Black. Sonia looked down to see her hands gripping the table almost breaking it. 

"Black, I do not see anything wrong with him, what are you talking about?" Sonia asked with a puzzled look. 

"Look how she is working him. This mortal is taking advantage of his kindness." Riley hands ripped off the table. Sonia grabbed both her hands calming her down. She was confused by Riley behaviour she was mad for Black working.

"What do you expect him to do, he chose to become a waiter." 

"Black is going to be the Demon King one day, he cannot be serving this mortals," Riley stated out firm at Sonia. Sonia stared at her with a bleak look. She casually gasped at Riley words. 

"You're really getting mad of Black serving some people, yeah people. Stop calling them mortals we are not in the demon realm anymore. If Black want to serve people its not your job to judge his decision lets be happy that he is working."

Sonia said while stretching her arm up and forward, with a flushed expression saying, "Can you accept his decision huh, Riley?"

Riley turned her face towards side. She gritted her in knowing that she could not challenge Sonia reasonable words. But she could not say it to her face not wishing to boost her already huge ego. She simply nodded her head down. 

"Okay, you are right then," Riley murmured. Her face flushed also looking cute, acting like a small child. Sonia gently smiled realizing she will never change herself; She would be hot headed until the end. 

With a frowned expression sitting at the table next to the windows. Derek was clinching his fists on top of the table. Sitting next to him Arsael tried to calm him down ordering countless drinks to calm his rage from doing something he would end up regretting. 

"Here is another," Asrael slide the drink towards Derek hands.

Walking with the sixth cup at the two direction, Vera was baffled by the two order of drinks. Every with many questions inside of her mind she refused to ask them.

"You know I won't let you do it, Derek? I can help you do that you should find someone else to help you there, but don't end up ruin this trip for all of us. Alright," Asrael said with a serious expression towards Derek. Derek clinched his teeth furiously gazing at Ladros, but so was Ladros gaze was pointing at his direction; The two have pretend to forgive each other in front of Black but secretly they both still wanted to kill each other, then and there. 

Placing down the empty cups on top of the counter glancing towards Black side. Vera asked with a curious voice, "What is has happen between your friends, they seem to be giving each other hard glances. Is there something bothering them?"

Black casually smiled doubting her words, he turned his head looking towards Ladros and Derek tables. "What do you mean, there is nothing is wrong with them," Black paused from saying more he raised his eye-brow towards two. 

"Do they look fine to you," Vera said with her head looking at Ladros and Asrael directions. Turning back her head she sees a blank expression on Black face; H seemed not to care about them anymore. Vera opened her mouth making a large smile. 

"I guess there is nothing to worry about then."

Black turned back his head replied, "Huh, you should not bother yourself with idiots like them. The two have lesser brain cells." Vera nodded her head in responding. The two casually returned to their work serving everyone.

The afternoon. 

Black and Vera were busy cleaning tables, fixing up chairs and washing the dishes. Vera paused while she seem to look towards Black direction. She admired his hard working spirit towards his work even when he is not get anything for doing it. She would have paid him any amount if she could but only the guild-master had that power. Ever since she started working there no one had led a hand to help her like Black. Black was special for sure!

Black turned his head caught Vera gazing at him. Vera quickly turned her had down towards the water that she was washing the dishes. Her face was flushed red. Black casually smiled turning his gaze fixing up the chairs. 

After finishing the everything the two said goodnight to each other. Walking upstairs Black suddenly sensed a ominous aura coming from his room. With a blank expression he realized what was going on inside. As he walked inside he saw both Ladros and Derek locking heads with each other, but he casually walked pass them noy bothering to stop them. 

Riley rushed beside him explaining the issue to Black. Black blankly stared at her with no care in the world in his eyes. She tried grabbing him by his arm but Black casually shuttled it off. Everyone were caught bewildered by the scene. 

"What is wrong Black?" Riley asked with a puzzled expression. Black frowned his brows looking at the side. 

He said, "I do not care if they kill each other anymore, I am no longer going to entertain their foolish behaviour. All I ask from them is to not ruin this trip for me." He casually got in his bed closing his eyes. Sonia and others widened their eyes with surprised. Black had never behaviour like this before he usually the peacemaker of the group, now he was not bothering himself with being the peacemaker. 

Ladros gritted his teeth, frowning his eyes at Black. He thought since Black learned hellfire he has been underestimating him. He was still stronger than all of them his power and skills were further from what they showed from the sparring they had; Ladros was one of the candidates to be the new demon king. To be a candidate of demon king meant that his strength and power had the potential of being the demon king. 

Ladros walked forward approaching Black bedside. He pulled his hand forward at Black to grab his top. But Black firmly warned Ladros from disturbing, stopping his hand in mid-air. Ladros sighed turning his back walking out the door.
