Strongest Superhuman System - Chapter 681

Chapter 681: Grace Evans
Pat didn’t even know when he mentioned that he used his self-made algorithm to create a system for detecting mana, and it was only after the girl’s eyes widened in shock that he realized what he had said!

Pat said all of this to Mark, and Mark felt like facepalming in annoyance. This bastard was a fucking idiot! The MDS was the most coveted piece of technology in the world right now, and anyone who found out Pat had it on him would definitely try to get to Pat by any means possible. It wouldn’t even be a surprise if they started to send assassins after Pat to make sure that if they couldn’t have it then no one else could have it either! Mentioning something like that to a random girl was just stupid!

Mark was about to say something else to Pat, but before he could talk, Luna spoke up.

“Grace, what are you doing?”

There was a hard undertone in Luna’s voice that made even Mark turn to her in surprise, but his reaction was nothing compared to the girl who had been chasing Pat. The girl’s body locked up like she had been frozen on the spot! Luna’s face was set in a hard look of disappointment as she waited for the girl to say something, and as the silence dragged on, Mark could see sweat pooling on the girl’s forehead from the fear!

“Grace!”

Luna suddenly shouted, and the girl was immediately on her knees in front of Luna, bowing!

“I’m sorry, Madam Luna! Please don’t fire me!”

Luna glared at Grace.

“I brought you here as my guest! Why in the world are you running through the hallway without shoes like some sort of hooligan!”

Luna was livid as she glared at the younger woman, and Grace felt like crying as Luna’s disappointment pressed down on her! Grace was one of the employees at Luna’s company who had been invited to this event. Grace was in the main hall for most of the event, but after a while, she got bored of all the speeches and donations and decided she would go hide and hack into the event cameras to find something entertaining, but that was when she met Patrick, and then things just spiraled out of control from there! She was so sorry!

Grace looked up at Luna with tears in her eyes and hugged her leg!

“I’m sorry, Madam Luna! I’m sorry! I was just bored! The event was so boring! They were giving so much money out that I felt like crying, and I didn’t even have anyone to talk to there, so I could only imagine what all that money could do for my research! But then I met Patrick, and then we started talking, and then things just got out of hand! I’m sorry! Uhm… you look very beautiful. Your legs are so long!”

Luna felt a tick mark appear on her forehead as Gracce started to change the subject!

“Stop thinking that flattery is going to get you off for everything! And let go of my legs, dammit! You’re a grown woman!”

Luna felt like kicking Grace off, but she knew that if she did that, Grace would die since Grace was just a normal human, so Luna waited until Grace let go of her leg before she sighed tiredly. Mark, Arit, and Pat had been staring at the duo in surprise all this while, and Mark finally asked Luna who this was.

Luna sighed and put a hand on her forehead to massage her headache while talking.

“This is Grace Evans. She’s the head of the IT division of my guild and one of my inner circle. I’m sorry you had to see this. She’s very brilliant, but as you can see, she isn’t the most mature person in the world. I actually brought her here to meet with you, Mark.”

Luna glared at Grace when she said that Greace wasn’t the most mature person in the world, and Grace tapped her two index fingers together sheepishly while looking at the ground with a blush on her face. Luna was only a couple of years older than Grace, but for some reason, Grace always felt like a little kid whenever Luna was reprimanding her. It was very demeaning, but Grace didn’t mind since she knew that it was her fault for the way she was always acting. In fact, with all the things Grace had done, Grace was surprised that Luna hadn’t already fired her!

Mark hummed curiously and asked why Luna wanted her to meet him, and Luna said that it was because of what Mark had told her before. Mark had told Luna after his visit to Pat that the current state of things with both the Vanguard guild recruitment and the merger between their two guilds was going to be too much for Pat to handle on his own. Pat was doing a good job, but Mark could see from the look on Pat’s face when they met earlier that Pat was not getting much sleep at all and the workload was getting too much for him.

“You said you wanted someone that could work with your vice-captain on the technical aspects of the merger and running the guild’s digital presence. I don’t know anyone else that can do a better job than her. She just graduated a year ago from school, but she’s one of the smartest people I know.”

Mark blinked in surprise and then looked from Luna to Grace and then over to Pat, who was staring at Grace with wide, disbelieving eyes. Mark’s mouth first split into a grin before a chuckle escaped his lips and it wasn’t long before Mark just started to laugh his ass off as he realized what was happening! These two were gonna kill each other!

Arit also chuckled a little as she knew what was happening, and Pat felt his head getting lighter as he suddenly felt like passing out. Pat spoke up with a tone that showed just how pissed off he was!

“Mark, what the fuck is he talking about!? I don’t remember asking for this! I didn’t ask you for any help, you bastard!”

Pat was fucking livid, but Mark just waved Pat’s anger away as he spoke.

“Oh, come on, I could tell you needed the help. You’re basically a one-man army handling all the digital aspects of our guild on your own as well as running part of it as the vice-captain. You’ll have a lot more help when we merge with the Moonlight Guild, but right now, you can’t do all the work on your own while still going to school. So I asked Luna if there was anyone who could help you with that, and well, here we are. Congratulations, Patrick! You have such a beautiful girl as your partner! You should be excited!”

Grace got up from the ground with a gasp, ran up to Patrick, and grabbed him faster than he could move out of the way! Patrick stumbled back and fell off his feet with a surprised cry!
