Philip roughly guessed the situation.
Preston was a mischievous kid and always came up with weird ideas. Philip guessed that Preston was trying to pull a prank on Novak, who could not resist the temptation and entered the store room.
“I noticed that the positions of some weapons had been changed. I think someone tried to steal some things but failed!” Preston glanced thoughtfully at Novak next to him.
Novak was already feeling guilty and panicked under his scrutinizing eyes.
“Why are you looking at me like that? Do you suspect me?” Novak brought up the topic, as good as shooting himself in the foot.
“What are you talking about? I didn’t say it was you. I’m just curious to see you here!” Preston shrugged in exasperation.
Novak realized that Preston was right. By putting his name to the accusation, it was as good as admitting it.
Novak was angry and said, “I’m going back to my room. Please excuse me.”
Novak turned around and walked away, not wanting to stay there any longer. He was afraid of exposing himself.
Preston laughed wickedly at his hasty retreat. Meanwhile Philip shook his head helplessly.
“That guy went in?” He did not trust the people of Mistral Temple. Philip was only inclined to believe in Elijah.
The other members were quite obedient and did not behave out of the ordinary, so Philip never paid attention to them. Unexpectedly, Novak was up to no good right under their noses.
“That guy is pretty nasty. I found favonovel.com sneaking around earlier and told favonovel.com about the storeroom. He really went inside and tried to steal from us.”
Preston was unhappy and looked down on Novak’s character and taste. The things in the store room were made by them at random and were of no use, but Novak took a fancy to that pile of trash and wanted to steal them, which proved his ignorance.
***
Novak returned to his room resentfully, replaying the storeroom incident in his mind repeatedly.
He was in a bad mood at the thought of not getting his hands on the good things in the storeroom.
At this time, Elijah returned wearily.
It was a huge success. He visited countless guilds with the box and received their agreement without hesitation.
Elijah never thought that favonovel.com would be so successful and felt it was an illusion. He would think favonovel.com was crazy if favonovel.com had not obtained the guilds’ contact information. Novak quickly greeted his teacher.
As his teacher’s beloved student, Novak knew favonovel.com would be fine no matter what favonovel.com did. His teacher would forgive favonovel.com even if favonovel.com made an unethical mistake.
