These Familiars Are Strange-Chapter 136: Honoured guest

The only thing showing that I was an Irregular was a small badge that I received.

It was a badge that didn’t seem special at all, but they told me that this was the badge showing that I was an Irregular.

If I showed this badge in any place with the Explorer Association’s influence, it would be recognized and I would receive the benefits that come with this badge.

But it really was a small badge.

Once we left the Explorer Association, I was about to address the look that was on Iris’ face when…

"Mr Lin, there’s something that I have to discuss with you."

I was surprised to be called this and I was even more surprised when I saw who it was.

It was the bodyguard that the Huo Couple had assigned to be my contact when they made me a guest of the Huo Family.

He was talking to me completely differently compared to before.

But thinking about it, I realized that it was most likely because Iris was here.

If he were to talk to me the same way as before, there was no doubt that she would say something. Though when he addressed me like this, I couldn’t help finding it strange since it was too different from usual.

I didn’t make it hard for him as I just gave a simple nod to show my agreement.

That bodyguard didn’t waste any time in taking out something from behind his back.

With how he pulled it out, it really made me wonder where it came from since I had seen him walking over earlier. If he had it hidden behind him, then it certainly would have made it hard for him to walk.

Or if he had walked like that while hiding this behind him, I had to admire the way that he did it.

It certainly wasn’t something that anyone would have been able to pull off.

Especially since the thing that he brought out was this large box that was as big as my chest.

It really was surprising that he had been able to hide this thing the entire time.

As for a Storage Ring…I knew that it wasn’t that since I would have felt the mana fluctuations of him taking it out of the Storage Ring. Unless there was this kind of Storage Ring that I had never seen before that allowed him to do this.

Once he took out this box, he held it in both hands in front of him and presented it to me.

It was a good thing that we had moved away from the entrance of the Explorer Association or else there certainly would have been a lot of attention attracted to us.

After holding up the box like this, he lifted up the lid and revealed what was inside.

What was revealed was disappointing compared to everything that he did. It seemed like he had been building up to something special, but the only thing that was inside of this box was a token.

When I looked at it closely, I found that it was a token that was similar to the one that they had given to me before.

But there were also a few differences between this token and the one that I received before.

I looked at the bodyguard with one brow raised after seeing this token since I didn’t understand what the point of presenting this to me was.

However, he didn’t say anything as he just held it up in front of him.

With the way that he held it up and waited, it was as if he was just waiting for me to take it.

So I reached out slowly and took it from the box before lifting it up in front of me to take a close look at it. But I couldn’t tell exactly what this token was or how it was different from the one that they presented me previously.

After I took it, the bodyguard finally explained, "This is the token of an honoured guest of the Huo Family."

"Honoured guest?" I asked in a confused voice since it didn’t seem that different from being a guest of the Huo Family.

The bodyguard said with a nod, "An honoured guest of the Huo Family is different from just a simple guest of the Huo Family. You will receive far more benefits and you will also receive the protection of the Huo Family to a certain extent."

I couldn’t help being a bit surprised to hear this.

After all, this was certainly different from just being a guest.

A guest would receive some courtesy, but the Huo Family would never risk their lives to protect a guest. Rather, it should be the guest that would help protect the Huo Family since they were basically buying them off.

But now…it seemed that they were using this title to give me a certain amount of protection.

It was just like how Mu Gong had taken me in as his in name disciple or how I was made an Irregular of the Explorer Association.

This was their way of protecting me.

A faint smile appeared on my lips when I heard this before I looked up to say, "Please thank them for me."

"There’s no need to thank them, this is what they should do since you’re with me." Iris stepped forward and said this with a smile on her face.

The look of worry was completely gone from her face now.

The reason that she had been worried was because she had seen how the others were trying to get close to Lin Fan, but her parents weren’t doing the same. She was worried that she wouldn’t be able to be as close to him as the others.

But now that they had taken the initiative, she claimed this credit for herself.

If the Huo Couple was here, they certainly wouldn’t have known whether to laugh or cry.

That was the look on the bodyguard’s face when he heard this, but he didn’t say anything since Iris was the young miss. Read latest chapters at novelbuddy

Still, I looked at her and said, "Thank you."

At this, Iris just turned her head in an embarrassed manner, but I heard her soft voice say, "You’re welcome."
