Chapter 34: Glesga ? ?
As Xin entered the house, he found Xiaxia sitting in the living room, scrolling through her phone. Her fake blonde hair was wrapped in a towel, and she wore a casual shirt and short shorts that showed off her slender legs.
"Hey, you're back! Where have you been?" Xiaxia asked.
"Bathhouse," Xin replied, sounding uninterested. "I left you a note."
Xiaxia scoffed, not convinced. "Four hours just for a bath? I don't buy it."
Xin glanced at her briefly before heading to the bathroom to wash his clothes. "You might want to change your shorts. They make you look fat."
"Wha––!" Xiaxia's face burst red. "I'm not fat!"
But all she got in response was the sound of the bathroom door slamming shut.
Xiaxia's heart was still racing, her breath heavy as she tried to calm down. When she finally regained her composure, she stormed into the bedroom and stood in front of the mirror.
"I'm not fat," she repeated to herself, her voice shaking. She struck a few poses, trying to see herself from different angles. "He's just making up stories to annoy me."
However, her eyes then zeroed in on her thigh, and she couldn't help but pinch the small layer of skin. "Guk!" she exclaimed.

In the bustling town of Abundant Shore, Xin dedicated his time to exploring and accepting quests from the various NPCs.
As he strolled around, he noticed a crowd of players gathered near the floating market. They were all around levels 15 to 20, forming groups of at least five members.
"Recruiting for the Floating Market Quest!" shouted a player, trying to attract more participants. "Only Level 15 and above!"
"Hey, you!" a player approached Xin and asked, "Do you want to complete the quest with us, err . . . Lord Schrodinger?"
Ignoring their commotion, Xin continued his quest to dominate the NPCs, searching for the mayor in the bustling town of Seagull's Nest.
Finally, he spotted the mayor and approached him.
"Lord Schrodinger, welcome to Seagull's Nest! What can I do for you, my friend?" the mayor warmly greeted him.
They literally became friends after Xin greeted him back.
Xin tried to maintain a friendly atmosphere and keep his poker face to a minimum. He kept in mind the advice Drasta had given him about not revealing the deaths caused by the Sahuagin on the shore.
"Are you here to participate in the quest for oil? We could really need an adventurer like you," Glesga pleaded.
And when Xin nodded, his [Relationship Level] with Glesga had reached [Intimate], and his personal information became available to him.
[Mayor Glesga Seacaller
Medium Humaniod (Elf, Noble), Lawful Evil
Glesga was the only survivor when one of the falling rocks of the Baskan court mage's summoning destroyed their family tower. They were only a child when other half-elves took them in and made sure in their upbringing that they knew the Seacallers had been nobles in the Baska kingdom.
Glesga won over the surviving fishing villages and united them in an effort to rebuild at least one town. Seagull's Nest is their most prized achievement, but their stability has been put to the test with collapsing structures, lack of resources, and the threat of Reef Raiders.
Glesga will do anything to protect their city and their hard-earned status.]
