Because of the long hours of daylight in the summer on the continent of Ica, even in the evening, the sky is not infected by night.

And at this moment, somewhere on the outskirts of the capital of the Chaoyang Kingdom, a teenager was standing in place dumbfounded.

Beside him, two young girls were still asleep......

……

“……”

The corners of Nightstar's eyes and mouth twitched wildly, and the green tendons on his forehead were all bulging......

After a few moments, he grabbed Jimru from the ground.

"Hey! Wake up! Wake me up! ”

“……”

"Flat-chested elves!"

“！”

Jimuru opened her eyes suddenly, and just as she was about to scold with an angry face, she was startled by Nightstar's expression.

"What do you want to do?! Don't mess around! ”

Looking at Jimru's drastic expression, Nightstar smiled evilly......

He raised his hand and pointed not far away: "Can you tell me what is going on?!" ”

"Huh?"

Jimuru looked suspiciously in the direction the night star was pointing......

……

The whole forest is gone......

In its place was a "vast" mansion......

How vast is it?

In short, even a small lake has become a private swimming pool......

……

““……””

Nightstar and Jimru looked at the ornate walls that stretched into the distance on either side of the gate, and fell into a state of stupor again.

After a dozen seconds, Nightstar slowly stared at Jimru, his eyes full of madness......

"You and Kuya went to do some building procedures that day, right? What the hell is going on?! ”

"Forehead ......"

Jimru's expression was a little unnatural......

After a moment, she looked away and spoke.

"I—I don't know anything......"

“……”

"I'm not very familiar with human things......"

“……”

"Uh-huh! That's it! ”

As the words fell, Jimlu smiled innocently.

Nightstar silently let go of his grip on Jimlu and slowly pulled an envelope out of his pocket.

After tearing it open, Nightstar emptied the contents......

Two cards and a letter......

“……”

Under Himru's curious gaze, Nightstar read the letter with a blank face.

[Dear employer, thank you so much for the opportunity you have provided me!] I felt that this forest was a perfect fit for my new mansion blueprint, so I couldn't resist it for a while...... In short, the mansion I have built for you is even comparable to the Salan Castle in the Kingdom of the Rising Sun! Well...... However, because the land area is too extensive, it cost 100,000 gold coins to buy a building permit from the state, and after deducting the cost of labor, materials and furniture...... Well, the rest of the money is in that gold card. The other card is a necessity for the Senro-level defensive magic of the Tongguò Mansion! It can be divided~ Okay, don't talk nonsense, let me introduce my hard work this time......]

"Shhh......h

Nightstar tore the letter in his hand to shreds with a slight smudg, and he glanced at the strangely shaped card before turning his gaze to the gold coin card......

I saw that the "thirty" written in the Ika Continent script was deeply engraved on it......

““……””

Jimru also seemed to notice the numbers on the gold coin card.

She swallowed her saliva subconsciously, and beads of sweat the size of beans continued to slide down the corners of her forehead......

Nightstar slowly turned his gaze to Himru.

"What about the gold coin card with 200,000 gold coins?"

“…… Ku and Kuya asked Stantin to hand it over to each other by the way when they went through the formalities, and they would definitely be trustworthy if they said that the other party was an acquaintance of Stantin. ”

“……”

"Huh, huh! Don't put on that face! Didn't I—We have been paid 20,000 gold coins? ”

“……”

Nightstar's calm face gradually became hideous, especially his smile, which was probably the friendliest he had since coming to the Otherworld.

"Flat-chested elf...... Pray that there is no cellar in this mansion, otherwise...... I'm afraid you'll never see the sun again in your life......"

“！！！”

"I need to prepare some utensils for feeding the animals......"

Nightstar ignored Jimru, who was retreating with a frightened face, and was absorbed in her own thoughts.

Hearing Nightstar's increasingly frightening words, Jimru finally couldn't help but shout at him.

"What's the matter with me?!"

"What's none of your business?! Why do you think I really believe you don't understand anything?! ”

“…… Me, I...... But it was Kuya who made the final decision! Don't blame me for everything! ”

“……”

Nightstar silently glanced at Kuya, who was not far away......

"Alright then, prepare two sets of utensils......"

“！！！！！”

……

Until Nightstar and the others entered the mansion, Jimuru still scolded Nightstar with a glint in the corner of her eyes.

"Is that enough?! We didn't get paid for that mission we went to the Kingdom of Kos! ”

“！”

"The reward is all in exchange for that pervert's life! Who do you think is to blame?! ”

“……”

"Tsk......"

Ignoring the stunned Jimru, Nightstar hugged Kuya and headed straight down a hallway.

A moment later, Nightstar pushed open a quaint and delicate door a little roughly, and walked straight to the large bed in the room.

After setting Kuya in place, Nightstar stared silently at her sleeping face......

……

About ten minutes later, the sound of chains breaking awakened Jimru from her state of distraction.

She turned around with a slight frown, only to see Nightstar's expression extremely flat.

Rubbing his somewhat sore wrist, Jim looked at Nightstar suspiciously.

"I have something to go out, you can help take care of Kuya first."

Nightstar threw away the half-chain in his hand and turned to walk out of the gate.

"Hey! Wait a minute! What are you going to do?! ”

Looking at the fading night star, Jimru looked a little panicked.

"If you come back and go crazy again, what will Kuya and I do?!"

“……”

Nightstar, who had just walked to the gate, paused.

After a moment, he tilted his head slightly.

"Don't worry, I'll be back soon......"

The words fell, and before Jimuru could speak again, the figure of the night star disappeared directly in place......

……

After all, the sky could not stop the invasion of night, and the stars covered by daylight finally ushered in their exclusive stage again.

At the top of the tallest building at Sennick Academy, a short woman in a black cloak faces the brightly lit neighborhood in the distance......

Her expression was a little sluggish, and because the wizard's hat on her head was too big, she looked a little funny......

Suddenly, there was a faint sound beside the woman, and a figure suddenly appeared on the top floor.

"The smell of blood on your body is so strong, are you really going to execute those who let [Lizhen] flow into the Chaoyang Kingdom?"

The impenetrable darkness of the night makes it difficult to see the faces of the people who are coming......

The woman didn't answer, just pulled the brim down.

After a moment of silence, the flat voice of the figure sounded again.

"This is the first person you've killed?"

“……”

"Don't be too surprised, I've read your information, and I've heard it from an old woman."

“……”

"Is there any interest in giving up this position altogether?"

“！”

The woman's face changed, and then she looked up at the figure in surprise.

After a few seconds of staring at each other, the woman shook her head firmly.

"Really...... You're stubborn enough. ”

The figure seemed to shrug its shoulders, and the sound of shattering continued to come from the rooftop.

After a small sound that reappeared, only the slightly sluggish woman was left in place......

……

"What a stubborn dwarf winter melon......"

……

The night gets darker......

In a large building on the outskirts of the capital, the light through one of the windows is dim, but it is unusually dazzling in this dark area......

……

After a brief grooming, Jimru was standing by Kuya's bedside, and she gently held one of Kuya's small hands, her face full of worry......

Suddenly, the sleeping Kuya began to move!

Jimuru was startled, and quickly climbed onto the bed and pressed Kuya's shoulders.

Despite this, the tremendous force of Kuya's thin body knocked Jimlu over almost instantly!

Jimru gritted her teeth, but did not release Raphael from her body......

Looking at Kuya's pained and struggling expression, Jimru's eyes moistened.

"I'm sorry...... I'm sorry...... You are in such pain, but I can't do anything...... A disease that even Raphael couldn't cure...... There's really nothing I can do about it......"

“……”

Kuya gradually calmed down......

At the moment when Jimru was puzzled, a piercing scream burst out of Kuya's throat!

The next moment, Kuya slammed her mouth shut!

Just as Jim showed up in horror, a palm suddenly appeared on Kuya's lips.

After a slight and frightening cracking sound, Kuya bit down on a horizontal index finger......

“！”

Jimuru looked up sluggishly, only to see Nightstar's unwavering face.

I saw that Nightstar was quietly watching Kuya, who was slightly crazy, and did not pay any attention to the fingers that kept oozing blood.

Jimru lowered her head gloomily, holding down Kuya's shoulders a little harder.

In the oppressive atmosphere, the two tacitly remained silent......
