Chapter 119: CHAPTER 119 – A Loving Family.
When the gates appeared, Maximus or Max was the army chief, the one who had the power to control the whole army.
At the time the Raider Association was founded, Max decided to make his own force.
He had worked for the government his whole life, and he knew how they worked and what they did, but he didn't want that anymore, he wanted actually to do some good for the citizens.
When Max created his force, the main power of government which is the army was split into two groups, one who was loyal to the government, and another who was loyal to the army.
There was a long internal fight between them, and the fight is still going on as the government wants the power that Max has control over.
Max had too much power along with too much money, and that was something that was very dangerous for the government or the Association.
But as said before, it was just an internal fight, never revealed to the public or enemy forces. On the outside, they were pretty friendly with each other.
To the public, Max was just a B-ranked raider with too much money and a loving family.
Nowadays, Max had been trying to elevate the image of the Crimson Lotus guild, although secretly, but yes, he had been doing that.
But it was not without a reason…...
"How long will it take for us to arrive?" Max asked his right-hand man, Jason.
"We will arrive at the designated meeting place in half an hour, Sir," Jason replied.
"I see," Max spoke but then two small hands held his neck from his right side.
"Where are we going, daddy?" A cute small voice was heard, this voice made a loving smile appear on Max's face, but before he could speak.
"Ask him, Lily, he didn't even tell me, ask him where he's taking us," An alluring mature voice was heard.
"All right, first you come here," Max spoke as he scooped his daughter, Lily, who was standing on the seat on his lap, causing Lily to giggle playfully as she settled down on Max's lap.
Lily has dark brown hair that reaches her lower back. She had emerald eyes that tinkled with curiosity and playfulness. She is a six-year-old girl with an adorable and sweet smile, and just like her father, she loves her family very much.
"And Grace, you should stop using Lily to get an answer out of me, it's no fun if I tell you what the surprise is now, is there?" Max continued with a smirk as he turned towards his beloved, his one and only wife.
"Is that so?" Grace just smiled with confidence as if she knew that she had already won.
Grace Steele is a woman with irresistible beauty even though she is just a C-ranked raider. She had black hair reaching her plump and bouncy hips with a curl at the ends.
Her eyes just like her daughter were emerald in color, but unlike Lily's, her eyes didn't have a hint of childish naivety in them.
She was an elegant and alluring beauty with G-cup breasts and an hourglass figure. Her body was not slim, neither was it fat, she was thick, through and through.
Grace and Max were called a pair made in heaven as both of them looked so good together that no one could find fault in their pair.
Grace then winked at Lily, who giggled mischievously before she tugged her father's shirt.
Max had a bad premonition when he saw Grace wink, but he still turned toward his daughter.
"Where are we going daddy?" Lily asked the same question but now her small watery eyes were looking at Max as if an abandoned puppy.
"Ugh…" Max felt an emotional arrow pierce his heart, but he still held his ground.
"Tell me, Pleaseee????" Lily saw that it didn't work so she made the face that made her look like she might cry if she heard another no.
Lily had learned a trick or two from her mom that was a sure hit on Max all the time.
Just like always, the trick worked again.
"All right, all right, don't cry, I'll tell you," Max hurriedly patted Lily as he spoke.
"Hehe, tell me then," Lily smiled like the little devil she was causing Max to realize that he had fallen for the same trap for the umpteenth time.
"What were you saying again, dear?" Grace teased from the side, but Max knew that he had lost already so he accepted it.
"So, where are we going?" Grace asked, but Max didn't even look at her, causing her to giggle.
She knew that he was just pretending to be angry, and she knew just the trick that worked to lift up his mood, though she would have to wait till night.
Grace just licked her lips and Max who noticed her licked her seductive soft lips also smiled inwardly.
But Max still answered Grace's question although he answered it to Lily.
"We are going to meet the cool big brother that saved you and your mom before," Max spoke causing both Lily and Grace to pause for a while before they reacted.
"YAAYYY!!" Lily directly hugged Max who happily accepted her hug as he patted her back.
"What?!?!" Grace, however, knew who Max was talking about so she was a bit shocked.
"Are you underestimating your husband's power, now?" Max asked with a raised brow as he secretly grabbed Grace's breasts and squeezed them causing Grace to cover her mouth.
Grace slapped his hand away and then looked at Lily and Jason.
She sighed as she saw that none of them saw it as Lily was still hugging Max and her face was buried in his chest, while Jason had his focus on the road ahead.
'See what I do to you tonight,' Grace lipsynced and Max just smiled and lipsynced just like Grace.
'Challenge accepted.'
................................................….
The Crimson Lotus Guild had been sending their S-ranked raiders all around the world to help other countries clear the gate or help with other things for 2 weeks.
Then there was also the fact that the guild master of the Crimson Lotus Guild was going around the world helping countries clear the gates for them or fight against gate breaks, along with her secretary, and the honorary guild master of her guild, who is the most handsome man of the world as well.
All they asked in return was the boss drop and the mid-boss drop.
This made the popularity of Alice, Alex, and Ann skyrocket in just a week.
They went to every country that called for help and cleared the gates for them, no matter the difficulty of the gate.
This, however, was not seen positively by everyone as some even tried to defame them or put some dirt on them, only to fail miserably.
After all, the fan base of Alice alone was something that could be counted as the population of half a country, let's not talk about the fan base of Alex, Alice, Ann, and the guild altogether.
It was at the time when they were in Indigo Country, and they had some free time, so they decided to go shopping there was a place in Indigo Country that produced the best clothes one can find around the globe.
By whatever coincidence it was, it was also a free day for Max who had decided to bring his wife and daughter there for shopping.
But was it possible for Alex, who had the Protagonist tag on his head to have a normal day of enjoyment??
Your answer is no.
