Travel (xxxvi)

"Why does Afalong have a uniform suit? Isn't it better for a mage to keep a low profile?"

Alan asked in his mind as he followed Mia.

"Sometimes, when a magician carries out a commission, in order to keep the official from interfering, he designs a set of clothes as a symbol, so that even if those guards don't see the devil's mouth and see the black clothes, they know that they are magicians. ”

"It saves you a lot of trouble. ”

Alan was talking to Frante when Mia suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?"

Eren looked at the scroll in her hand.

The magic scroll shows that they have arrived at their destination.

Looking up, Alan looked ahead.

People come and go, and the shouts of merchants mingle with the sounds of people talking.

It's a downtown area.

It's lively, and it doesn't look like there's a monster in it.

"In this case, how do you know where the monster will appear?"

Alan asked in a low voice beside Mia.

"Look around and watch for anything unusual. ”

"Where the concentration of magic is abnormal, monsters may not necessarily be born, but we must not take it lightly. ”

"Until the magic calms down, we're going to have to stay here just in case something happens. ”

Mia leaned against the wall next to her, her eyes scanning the downtown area.

"And you let me go to rest last night?"

Alan asked, looking at her hooded side face.

"What do you think I was doing last night?"

Mia turned her head, revealing half of her face.

She stayed here last night?

"Alright, you go around, I'll go for a walk too, and I'll be contacted through the boulder pendant if there's something to do. ”

With that in mind, Mia walked towards the crowd.

It wasn't until her black back disappeared from view that Alan took a step.

Subconsciously open the eyes of the heart, and there is no color everywhere you look.

It's like the world is suddenly being curtained, and everything is black.

Closing his eyes, Alan pulled a man passing by.

It was a middle-aged man, his face full of blankness, but the moment Alan grabbed him, he was startled.

"Who are you?"

Walking on the street and suddenly being pulled by a stranger, no one will be happy.

"Do you know this place?"

Alan inquired about the address given by the old lady who had come out of the palace of the Afalong branch earlier.

"Why should I tell you?

The man grabbed Allen's left hand with both hands, his face full of unhappiness, and he wanted to break free.

But no matter how hard he tried, the hand grabbed his collar without moving.

"Answer my question, and I'll let you go. ”

Allen's brow furrowed.

He was starting to get a little impatient.

"Are you sick in the head? Suddenly grab a person on the street, and force others to answer questions, let me go!"

The man's feet kept kicking on the ground, and even though he used all his strength, the hand didn't move the slightest.

His breathing began to rapidize because of the overexertion.

"I don't want to repeat it a second time. ”

Through the afterglow, Alan saw that the people around him gradually surrounded him after discovering the anomaly between the man and him, pointing and pointing.

His right arm was raised.

The man who was originally angry suddenly looked like chaff when he saw his right arm under Allen's cloak.

"Kill...... Murderer!"

He screamed.

The people in a circle approached.

Hearing the man's shrill scream, and then looking at Allen's black clothes, people seemed to think of something.

"Let him go!"

"Murderous wretch, let him go!"

"Call the guards! Catch this murderer!"

After realizing that the person in front of them was a magician, the people who had been very numb until now seemed to have found an outlet for their emotions.

Foul language kept popping out of their mouths.

Fingers pointed at Allen, their eyes shining fiercely.

I don't know why, when facing these ordinary people, Eren found that they were even more tricky than monsters.

In desperation, Alan put his right arm into the wallet around his waist, took out a silver coin from it, and handed it to the man.

Due to the cover of the cloak, coupled with the cover of the two bodies, almost no one saw this scene.

When he saw the silver coin that shimmered with silver, the man's pupils dilated suddenly.

At this moment, there was a loud cheer from outside the crowd.

"Get out of the way!"

The five guards rudely pushed through the layers of the crowd and walked in.

"What's going on?"

The leading guard lifted the steel visor, revealing a displeased face.

The man clutched the silver coin tightly in his hand and reached into his clothes, and he no longer struggled.

Alan let go of the hand that grabbed his clothes.

Because of the action, his patched shoulder was torn open, revealing the skin inside.

"I was joking around with this adult. ”

The man turned his head and looked at the guards as they approached, a flattering smile on his face.

"Really?"

The guard's gaze quickly skimmed over the man and shifted to Alan's.

Looking at the cloak representing Afaron and the hood that Eren wore on his head, the guard's face changed.

"Are you sure it's a joke?

The guard turned to look at the man and blinked.

"Yes, yes, I'm just a mouthful, screaming and playing. ”

The man nodded and smiled.

"That's it, that's fine, pay attention next time. ”

The guard nodded, unable to help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The remaining four guards began to evacuate the crowd.

The people who were excited before, after seeing the guards, suddenly seemed like deflated balls, and they no longer dared to make loud noises, and they scattered one after another, doing what they should do.

"My lord, I'll take you to that place, it's not far from here. ”

The man turned his head, still with a flattering smile on his face.

I didn't see the look of being willing to die just now.

"Is it there?"

Alan lifted his chin and pointed in the direction of Southtown.

"Yes, right in there. ”

"Let's go. ”

Since it was within the scope of the commission, Alan decided to pay it a visit.

A gold coin can be regarded as 100,000 in the previous life.

People who can give so much money casually are either rich or expensive.

Even if the other party has a bad plan, with his two-star strength, ordinary people must be unable to parry it at all.

During his last two days in Greystone, Eren used to cut his own fingers with a kitchen knife.

There was only a white mark on his finger, and the sharp kitchen knife was sharpened out of the notch.

Even if someone stabbed Allen in the neck, it would only be the knife that would break.

A boy stood by the bridge not far away and witnessed it all.

He kept Allen's thin black figure in his mind, and ran away quickly.

It didn't take long for Alan to follow the man's guidance and come to a house.

It is a detached house.

It is surrounded by a downtown area, and it is a little strange that such a house stands here.

"That's what you're looking for. ”

The man rubbed his hands, stuck out his tongue and licked his chapped lips, his narrow eyes full of longing.

Pulling out another silver coin from his wallet, a smile appeared on Alan's lips.

The man took the coin, nodded at Allen, and ran away quickly.

"Untouchables. ”

Looking at his cheerful and distant back, the corners of Allen's mouth moved, and he spat out two words.

For a while, he was a little glad that he met Frante on the first day of the crossing.

If it weren't for the fact that Frant was on the verge of losing control, there was a sacrifice that could whet his appetite and make him a magician by mistake.

Even if he relied on the mind and business ideas of his previous life to accumulate some small capital, under the power of magic, I am afraid that he will not even be able to keep that little capital.

"Don't clash with the guards head-on in the future. ”

At this moment, Mia's voice suddenly came from the boulder pendant.

"The official willingness to cooperate with Afalong is because we are trying to maintain social stability. ”

"It doesn't mean that they will watch you kill ordinary people, and if you commit a major crime, even if they don't do it, Afalong will take the initiative to send killers to maintain their reputation. ”

The magic fluctuations of the boulder pendant faded away.

Alan took Mia's words to heart, looked up, and looked at the house in front of him.

"Anyone?"

He knocked on the door and asked.

Within seconds, a man dressed as a butler opened the door.

"You're the magician Lady Tina mentioned, aren't you?"

The man's face was very delicate, he looked like he was in his twenties, and he had a gentle smile on his face.

Alan nodded and walked inside.

In front of you is a huge spiral staircase, flanked by two golden rooms on either side of the porch.

There are also several paintings in the hallway, all of which look like masterpieces of abstraction, at least to Allen's level of appreciation.

"Hello, my name is Marin, and I am Lady Tina's butler. ”

The man closed the door and held out his hand respectfully towards Alan.

"Alan. ”

Alan shook his hand.

Marin's hands are very delicate, not as rough as those of a person who does things.

was licked by Allen's mouth, and Marin's face instantly turned pale.

"I'm going to call Lady Tina. ”

Leaving these words behind, he hurried down the stairs towards the upper floor.

Her cat is missing......

As early as he was preparing to enter the Avalonian Chapter, Alan had already heard the communication between Lady Tina and Tiffany from the palace.

According to Lady Tina, the guards are all buckets that don't do anything, so it means that she has already asked the guards to deal with the matter, or......

Or maybe she knew that the guards, who were ordinary people, couldn't handle this at all.

That being the case, only a magician can solve her troubles.

But why would Tiffany refuse to let Mrs. Tina issue a commission?

Alan walked to the side of the room.

The curtains had been closed throughout the room, and there was a piano in the center of the room.

The whole decoration is golden.

There is a single-family three-story cottage in the downtown area, and there is such a decoration.

This Lady Tina must be either rich or rich.

This also explains that just by meeting, Lady Tina stuffed herself with a gold coin.

You know, a gold coin can live most of an ordinary person's life.

Even the Earl of Scott, who was a noble earl, gave a greeting gift of only one gold coin.

Just then, footsteps could be heard from the staircase.

"Tina, is that you?"

A hoarse voice came from inside.

The voice was low, but it was so piercing that it gave me goosebumps.

It's not like a sound that a living person can make.

"It's me, how are you in there?"

After a moment's hesitation, Lady Tina whispered.

"I'm dying in there! rats!ahh

The people inside seemed to have exploded, and the sound was so loud that it was deafening.

"They...... They're still biting at my body, ahhh

"Damn brute! Get me a cat!"

The man's roar was like thunder, and the harsh sound was nothing short of torture.

Marin involuntarily covered his ears, his legs shaking.

Even Lady Tina couldn't help but be startled.

In her panic, she couldn't help but grab Marin's hand.

Feeling the young and fiery hand, Lady Tina's emotions gradually calmed down.

"I'll get you a cat right away!"

"Hurry up! This sewer is almost too big to be drilled by those rats!

"If I hadn't left early, I would have borne the price, who would have suffered like this!"

Lady Tina and Marlin almost fled.

On the stairs, they could even faintly hear the roar coming from the basement.

"This miscellaneous is already dead and tormenting. ”

Marin's fair face was full of resentment.

"If he really succeeds, we don't have to look at his face and do things......"

Lady Tina hung her head, her eyes moist.

"I can't wait to rush in now, chop him to pieces, and see if he can come back from the dead again!"

Marin stomped his foot hard, his voice full of madness.

"No! if something happens to him, we won't be able to stay in Boulder City for long, Baker and they have been coveting us for a long time, and only when that guy is resurrected can we live without food and clothing. ”

Hearing Marin's words, Lady Tina hurriedly grabbed him.

Marin sighed, "You're right. ”

At this moment, Lady Tina stood on tiptoe and kissed Marlin on the cheek.

"Don't be discouraged, don't you still have me?"

Marin's heart instantly burned.

"Aren't you going to help him buy a cat?"

"In front of you beautiful man, who cares about that bad old man......"

Marin snatched Lady Tina up by the waist, gasped for breath, and ran upstairs.

......

Alan stood by the bridge and watched the endless flow of people in the southern city.

It was already past noon, and there were more and more people here.

"Alan, where are you?"

At this time, a man's voice came from the boulder pendant around his neck.

It's Noah.

"Remember what I said yesterday, and today I will give you a gift in return for driving the woman away. ”

Noah added.

"I was under a tree next to that bridge in Nancheng. ”

Alan walked to a maple tree to the side and leaned against it.

He was intrigued by the gift Noah had said.

"I'll come over now. ”

Not even half a minute, Alan suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder.

Turning his head, it was the suffocating face.

Alan was unaware of his arrival.

Is the difference between two stars and three stars so big?

Noah has a gentle smile on his face, and his features that make women jealous are extremely lethal.

Fortunately, Alan is a straight man of steel, otherwise he might have been addicted to it like the woman of that day.
