Chapter 7: O Man

The thief girl walked in the jungle with a heavy heart, and she always felt a little restless.

But she smiled self-deprecatingly, it was normal to be restless, and it would be strange if she could still remain calm at this time.

The skinned demon was vivid, and it was hard for her to understand...... Why is it that just because the other party is a monster, the eldest lady who doesn't even dare to go to the battlefield can suddenly come to a ruthless skinning scene.

The same goes for those knights who flaunt glory, those knights who are well-dressed, full of gentlemanly style, and take pity and kindness as their own criteria, but they have set off one massacre after another in the Demon King City, and they all laugh when they talk about monsters, and they don't think so.

As soon as she thought of this, she couldn't help but touch her face, which had a tattoo with the logo of a criminal, which she had since birth.

Because she has half monster blood, she was born with it.

At this moment, she suddenly heard the sound of water in front of her, very faint, not like a river, it should be a stream.

"When did there be a creek here?" She instantly put aside her distractions and became vigilant.

It's winter, and even if there is a stream, it should have frozen!

She immediately drew the dagger from her waist, shrunk her body, and suddenly hid in the bushes, all without making a sound.

She's a professional, she's a thief, and her skill levels are Stealth 1, Reconnaissance 1, Assassination 1, and Skillful 2.

She was stronger than the aristocratic warrior Boch, but the other party didn't know anything about it, and he thought he was in control of this thief, who was always cowering and cautious.

She cautiously leaned forward, and in a few moments she saw the source of the sound of water, which was a glade in the woods, and the ground was cracked rock.

And there was no stream, but the sound of ice melting and dripping on the rocky surface.

She clenched her dagger and hid it, because something was wrong around her.

It's not normal to be so cold around you, but the ice is melting, and besides, it's ......

Just as she was thinking about this, she saw another person.

He was strong, like a warrior, but he was dressed in a gray robe, huh...... Is it the fabric of those soldiers of the army, but the cut is different, is it an officer? No, there is no identification of the rank, and there is no guard of honor for the officer.

"Looks are ...... What does a human being look like? Brunette? Is it a high monster, or a human? Some lone wolf adventurer? The thief girl did not dare to relax at all, lurking in the shadows.

Although the body structure of high-level monsters is completely different from that of humans, they are indeed quite similar in appearance, and it can even be said that there is no difference at all if you don't pay attention.

Sniffing, the girl's nose twitched twice, and she smelled a fragrance.

She couldn't help but lean out a little, looked closely, and finally saw the whole picture.

It was a very good-looking young man, sitting on a stone pier, and he was sprinkling some kind of white powder on the stone surface, and at the same time, there was a very good smell coming from him.

It's not a floral scent or anything like that, it's ...... Taste of meat and bread.

Meat and bread, just thinking of these two words, her stomach couldn't help but ring.

The supply of the coalition army has always been very tight, and she also needs to give priority to letting the noble young masters and young ladies eat first, she has not eaten a full meal for many days, and then she will ...... From birth to now, she has been starving most of the time.

As soon as her stomach rang, without hesitation, she immediately jumped out of the shadows! The guard quickly retreated, she didn't know whether the other party was friend or foe, but it was definitely right to escape!

"Are you hungry? Do you want to eat it? But before she could run far, she suddenly heard a voice behind her.

It's a human language, not a demon language.

"Things in the army are like, it's not tasty, right?"

Human language, which reassured the thief a little, so she stopped, turned defensively, and looked at the man carefully, but when she turned around, she covered her face with one hand.

Then she saw it, and the other party had a sincere smile on his face and stretched out his hand to herself.

"May I ask who you are? That squad, that number? Why is it just yourself? She asked cautiously, not ready to pick up the food.

Lu En smiled, a light flashing in his eyes.

"Oh, I'm alone, not from the military, this dress...... It's just a little bit of fabric, you look like you're hungry, do you want some? Lu En said kindly.

"I ...... I can't eat it, thank you, goodbye. The girl covered her face, still wanting to leave.

"Well, if you don't stay to eat, then take it away, how about it? I'll put things here first, and I'll leave. Lu En didn't insist on it anymore, but put the food that Kara had prepared for himself with a cloth and placed it on the stone pier, ready to go back.

"Wait a minute, please take it back, I'...... Look at this, if you have a relationship with me, you're going to have trouble. The girl showed her covered face, revealing a tattoo on her left cheek, she didn't know what to say, but the other party had a good intention, and she had to explain it.

Hooking up with a sinner, who may encounter all sorts of eyes, is best persuaded to leave.

Good people shouldn't have to come across something like this.

Of course Lu En knew what it was, the Demon King's memory was very clear, and he also knew a lot about human beings, and it was because he saw this that he came up with this idea.

So he immediately said, "What's the matter? There's no one else here, and besides, that doesn't mean you're really a bad person, right? ”

"It's okay? Do you think it's okay? The girl looked up in amazement.

"Or else? Could it be that I have to discriminate against you to be happy? ”

"But I ......"

"You talk a lot of nonsense, do you want it?"

The girl was silent for a while, as if it was difficult to refuse kindness, and as if she was struggling with something, but in the end, she chose to come closer.

"Thank you, I'll pay." She said.

"No need, then you can take it first, and I'll go first." Lu En didn't dwell too much, but looked to the other side.

It was Kara's expected way back, and it was a good place in the woods with a good view.

Holding the meat and bread, the girl thanked her again and tried to pay for it: "Thank you, my name is Ke Nana, and you are the first time I have met someone who doesn't care about this mark." ”

"No thanks, maybe we'll meet soon." Lu En smiled, and then, he took two steps forward.

Because he heard a voice.

And Nana heard it too.

The two of them raised their heads together, and they could see that a team was chasing a calm and beautiful woman.

The woman had a striking face, with supple black hair flowing behind her, and was dressed in a very conspicuous maid's outfit, with two curved dragon horns on her head and a tail trailing behind her.

She walked quickly through the complex woods, and behind her, a shout of killing rang out.

"Catch up with that monster! Don't let her run! ”

"She's sure she knows the whereabouts of the Demon King! I heard that Miss Livia is tracking down the Demon King's maids! She's supposed to be a half-dragon! Call for support! ”

The soldiers and brave men who had tracked after them were getting closer and closer, and the dragon maid suddenly sped up and headed straight for Lu En!

Nana immediately became vigilant.

"Don't be nervous, my people are here, but your people seem to be here too, so let's go our separate ways, goodbye~." Lu En patted Nana's head, turned around, and started to run!

Are you kidding! Soon, a reconnaissance team of several thousand people will chase after you from all directions! If you don't run anymore, your life will be gone!

Before Nana could react, she could only see that the kind man next to her suddenly turned around and ran, and the beautiful sister who was still wearing a maid costume in the forest also disappeared into the forest in the blink of an eye with the good Samaritan!

She was the only one left, and immediately, the noble warriors and the soldiers caught up, and Kara and Lu En had long since disappeared.

"Nana! What happened to those people just now? How did you end up with them? What are you holding in your hand? The aristocratic brave man at the head stopped, because the target was nowhere to be seen, and he turned to look at the clue, Ke Nana, who had just been with the target.

The army did not stop, they continued to search forward.

Nana opened her mouth silently.

This...... How to explain it?
