"How much gold does she owe you?"

A fluttering voice came from a distance, attracting the attention of the two people in front of them in an instant.

In front of them, following the voice, the two turned to look, and then were stunned.

On the white floor, a person stood there gently, wearing a robe from top to bottom, and the long sword at his waist looked very gorgeous and conspicuous.

The young man has a tall posture, a handsome appearance, and a pure and holy temperament all over his body, looking at each other lightly at this moment, with an indescribable noble temperament.

He just stood there, his long hair shining slightly in the sun, and his skin protruding from his sleeves fair, not like a knight who had trained hard day and night, but like an aristocratic scholar who sat upright at home, studying books day and night.

This inexplicable bearing, and suffocating temperament, suddenly made the two people present dare not despise it, and immediately attracted the attention of the two.

"Who are you?"

Looking at Adil walking in front of him, the middle-aged man who had a gloomy face and was talking loudly about debt collection changed his face, and asked with some caution.

Being in the royal capital, full of nobles in all directions, and having survived in this city for a long time, the middle-aged man in front of him has naturally developed a good eyesight and understands what kind of person cannot be easily provoked.

Although the young man in front of him did not look very old, his bearing was extremely extraordinary, and there was a faint calm and calm temperament between his eyebrows, as if no matter who stood in front of him, he could not be moved in the slightest.

Such a bearing is definitely not something that ordinary nobles can support, either it is unique in itself, or it is born among those top nobles.

But beside him, the moment he saw Adier, the woman named Qianlimu was directly stunned, and a faint light flowed in her eyes, as if she was a little excited.

"Yasuo, a member of the Bakuru family. ”

Raising his head slightly, turning sideways to look at the girl, Adil said casually, and then threw out a money bag, which accurately fell into the middle-aged man's hand under the subtle manipulation of mental power: "Here are five hundred gold coins, is it enough?"

"This..." Holding the money bag in his hand, he opened it, and after confirming the number of coins in it, he looked at Adil in front of him, the middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I'm afraid it's still not enough..."

"Huh?" Adil was stunned, this time he was really surprised.

In this world, the purchasing power of a gold coin is not small, and under normal circumstances, the annual expenses of a nobleman are probably between one or two gold coins.

Five hundred gold coins, even for a noble family with a long heritage like the Bakuru family, is a lot of money, and it is not enough to pay off the debt?

How could the Bakuru family owe so much money?

"I beg your pardon. Noticing the surprised gaze on Adier's face, the middle-aged man showed a slightly wry smile on his face: "About two months ago, Sir Sim took eight hundred gold coins from our Chamber of Commerce with the Bakuru family's several stations in Tamu as collateral, but recently, we found out that those few stations have long been sold to others..."

He had a wry smile on his face, and he also felt very aggrieved about this matter.

Hearing this, Adil was expressionless, and only frowned secretly.

Sir Chim, the eldest son of the Bakuru family, is also the elder brother of the body of Adil and the future heir of the Bakuru family.

"In just a few months, even the family residence has to be mortgaged, what the hell is going on..."

Frowning, Adil turned around: "Go to the South Street Manor tomorrow to find me, and bring all the original mortgage certificates." ”

As he spoke, he glanced lightly at the other party.

In an instant, a fierce murderous aura of slaughtering countless people, killing endless creatures, surging away like a butcher, stirring in an instant, directly pouring into the depths of the opponent's mind, making the opponent's entire body tremble directly, only to feel a cool air descending from the sky, making his whole body directly cold.

At this moment, the middle-aged man had a strong premonition in his heart, as long as he dared to say a "no" word to this person in front of him at this moment, he would immediately be strewn on the spot, turning into a pile of cold flesh and blood.

Suddenly, his heart was cold, he looked at Adil in front of him, he endured the fear in his heart and did not kneel, and he didn't even dare to say a word and left directly, as terrifying as the legendary abyss of hell in front of him.

"Yasuo..."

After the man left, the woman who had been standing beside him and looking timidly at Adil spoke, looking a little uncertain.

"It's me. Hearing the woman's voice, Adil came back to his senses, and his demeanor returned to normal in the blink of an eye, and there was no trace of change at all.

"It's really you. Looking at Adier, Celimu had some disbelief in her eyes, a hint of surprise, and a little joy from the heart: "Are you okay?"

"Half a year ago, I heard the news that you were lost on the battlefield, and I thought I would never see you again, but fortunately, fortunately, the god of darkness still protects us, so it's okay for you to be okay. ”

She stepped forward and grabbed Adiel's hand tightly, her face flushed.

This kind of enthusiastic attitude and warm mood made Adil a little unaccustomed for a while.

According to the relationship, the person in front of him should be his cousin of this body, who is also a member of the Bakuru family, but the relationship is farther away.

In the past, because of the woodenness and taciturn of this body body, there were not many friends in the clan who had a good relationship with this body body, and the girl in front of him was one of them.

"How's the situation in the clan?" sent the man away, followed by Celimu beside him, Adil walked into the somewhat dilapidated manor in front of him, looked at her and asked.

"The situation in the clan... Something terrible. Listening to Adil's words, Sirimu sighed softly, and then opened his mouth to tell some of the things that the Bakuru family had experienced in the past two years.

Since the fall of the Southern Fortress, the territory of the Bakuru family has fallen, and even the current head of the Bakuru family, Baron Doru, died on the battlefield in the south, and the body has not been found until now.

After the death of Baron Doru, the people of the Bakuru family moved north with a large number of nobles and were relocated to the city of Tamu.

"With the preparations made by the family in the past, even if the power is not as good as in the past after coming to Tam, it shouldn't be reduced to the current situation, right?" Listening to Cilimu's narration, Adil was a little puzzled.

After all, the Bakuru family is a noble family that has been inherited for many years, even if the entire family will inevitably fall into decline after the loss of the territory, but the legacy of the past will not completely fade in a while.

With the preparations made by the Bakuru family and the connections left behind, how could it be reduced to the point where it was necessary to mortgage the station?

"It's Master Chim..." A wry smile appeared on Cilimu's face: "Since coming to Tam , Master Chim is like a different person, hiding in various casinos all day long to have fun, and after a long time, almost all the gold coins we brought at the beginning were lost by Master Chim..."

"Lord Baron is not here, and none of us can persuade Young Master Chim, I originally thought that the young master would stop after losing the gold coins he brought before, but I didn't expect that..."

She had a wry smile on her face, and a slight disappointment in her eyes, as if she had been completely disappointed in Himmley.

"Fortunately, Master Yasuo, you are also back. Then, she looked at Adil in front of her, who was tall and tall, and her temperament was completely different from the past, and she couldn't help but speak: "It's just that young master, your changes are a little big, and I almost didn't recognize you before." ”

"Crawling out of a pile of corpses, no matter who it is, there must be a lot of changes. ”

Adil raised his head slightly, and at this moment his footsteps suddenly stopped, looking into a corner.

There, a thick wall sat silently there, and at the moment there was a little black-red blood on it, and it looked like it had dried up completely.

"What's that?"

Looking at the bloodstains, Adil stood there and asked softly.

"It was left by Master Chim before. Cilimu sighed lightly: "When I first came to the royal capital, Young Master Sim seemed to be in a very unstable mood, drinking outside every night and not coming back until late at night. ”

"The bloodstains there were accidentally left by Young Master Chim when he came back from outside one night drunk. ”

"Really?" said Adil softly, with a little inexplicable look in the depths of his eyes.

The moment he saw that blood, the essence and will that had once been a fifth-order made him keenly aware of something wrong at this moment.

"It's not a person..." He muttered to himself, keenly aware of something at this moment.

"What?" beside him, not hearing Adil's words clearly, Cilimu asked with some confusion.

"Nothing. Adil shook his head, staring at the bloodstain, and after a long time asked, "What about Chim?"

"I don't know. At the mention of this name, the girl's face instantly turned gloomy: "Maybe I'm still drinking outside the bar." ”

Adil nodded, and didn't ask any more.

After a while, after taking a general look around the manor in front of him, Adil directly refused to be retained by Celimu and left this place directly.

It didn't take long for him to reappear.

Raising his head slightly, looking at the sky around him that was slowly becoming darker, Adil casually stepped aside, closed his eyes directly, and waited quietly.

With Adier's current strength, even if he didn't deliberately hide it, just the instinctive shielding of his spiritual power, it could make it impossible for people to directly observe his existence, and even if he was standing there, his eyes would automatically ignore it and regard it as a background board.

Now under the active cover-up, with Adier's current strength, unless a real golden knight comes, it is extremely difficult to be discovered.

He just waited there, waiting for the target to appear this time.

Time passed quietly, and as the twilight passed, the night gradually appeared, and a bright moon shone in all directions, spreading light in all directions on the earth, as if covered with a layer of faint silver.

While Adil was waiting, a figure gradually appeared on the ground in the distance.

It was a young man who looked quite young, and his face was quite handsome, but his face looked a little pale.

He was dressed in black, with a long sword that looked a little tattered at his waist, and the whole person looked very decadent, even if he was tall, he gave people a feeling of malaise.

Under the darkness of the night, the young man walked towards the manor where the Bakuru family was, his whole steps looking vain and weak, and the shadows stretched out in the thin moonlight.

Feeling the arrival of this person, Adil slowly opened his eyes, and his gaze slowly focused on the young man's body.

The person in front of him was indeed Sim, the elder brother of his body.

It's just that compared to the past, at this moment, on the body of the person in the distance, Adil clearly felt a sense of incongruity.

It was a vague premonition, derived from Adiel's original will.

The young man in the distance was indeed the elder brother of his body, but the other party's body and spirit, and even the depths of his soul, exuded a sense of incongruity all the time.

It may not be noticeable to ordinary people, but in Adiel's eyes, it is very obvious.

Moreover, from the bloodstains left in the manor before, Adil also clearly felt something.

In the distance, under the gaze of Adiel, Chim slowly walked into the manor, and with the support of several old servants, he slowly walked into his room.

In the process, Adil followed, and stood at the door of Chim's room, watching him fall into a deep sleep.

On the large bed in the room, Sim was pale and smelled of alcohol, and he seemed to be sleeping deeply, showing no sign of waking up.

Standing quietly outside the room, looking at his appearance at the moment, Adil also frowned.

In his senses, Chim's body at this moment exuded an ominous meaning, and the whole person looked as if he was a corpse, cold and pale.

And inside his body, there seemed to be an ominous force brewing in his body, which was gradually growing.

This unique and inexplicable phenomenon caught the attention of Adiel.

"Alienation?"

Looking at Sim lying on the bed, carefully feeling this unique transformation, Adil thought of a situation.

In this world, there are real devils and demons. On this continent, there are often legends of demons that circulate throughout the world.

Some demonic species like to do the most is to seduce the intelligent life on the earth in order to degenerate it, and eventually the whole body and mind are transformed into another existence.

The changes that have taken place in Sim in front of him are very similar to this transformation.

Before Adil could finish his thoughts, a change was taking place before his eyes.

A shrill sound of a bat screaming came from outside.

Under Adier's gaze, in the courtyard in the distance, several huge bats were flying from outside, emitting bursts of screams.

With this scream constantly ringing out, in the room, Chim, who was originally lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes were full of indifference.

"Is it time again?"
