“…… That, you tap. Thea looked at Urs as if she was in high spirits, blushing slightly and thinking for a moment, "Also, only here." ”

After the words fell, she finally let go of her habitual left hand from the top of her head, moved it down and gently lifted a few bundles of light silver side hair on the side of her head, revealing one of her ordinary human ears, and then cautiously observed the surroundings, and after confirming that the other companions in the group had not paid attention to her and the young man for the time being, she leaned a little closer to the latter's side with a little embarrassment, and tilted her head slightly...... But the right hand still covered the wolf's ears on the top of his head, and it seemed that he didn't give the young man a chance to "sneak attack" at all.

Urs looked at her cautious appearance, and looked at the two wolf ears that were covered by the girl's hands with a little reluctance......

But if Thea doesn't like it, forget it. He thought to himself, and then, with a hint of regret, he bowed down a little, so that his gaze was so high that the girl's figure was much more delicate than he was, and the thumb and index finger of his right hand carried the single delicate earring and stretched out to the beautiful silver hair in front of him, and the ear with a fair complexion on the tip of the hair.

Speaking of which, Thea's hearing seems to be in four voices.

The two wolf ears on her head are acquired, and there are two innate ordinary ears in the same position as ordinary people.

Urs looked closely at the girl's ear in its normal position, and suddenly felt that the girl he liked was indeed cute, a kind of innocent and kind cuteness...... Then she put on a small trinket called the Sensor's earrings for her to put on herself.

The Sensor's earrings do not have a crochet needle for piercing, and the two small clips that replace the crochet needle seem to have been specially enchanted, just like a pet that knows how to please its owner, and when it comes into contact with Thea's earlobe, it naturally clamps and tightens, and the whole looks like a thin vine has formed on the tip of a branch, and a budding jade crystal flower hangs on the vine.

"How does it feel?" The young man let go of his hand and took a step back, feeling a little regretful in his heart, but on the whole he looked at the girl with a small piece of ornament on the human ear with some satisfaction.

Thea blinked, her amber eyes and then looked at Urs with a look of surprise to confirm that the latter had retreated to a safe distance that she could accept, then lowered her right hand from her head, reached out and touched the ornament that the young man had worn for himself, and after a while, he replied with a smile that made Urs laugh and cry: "I... I thought it was going to hurt. ”

…… Ha?

So that's what you're afraid of?

Urs was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and suddenly regretted it, thinking that he should have taken a tougher attitude if he knew this earlier.

He had hairy wolf ears on a beautiful head of silver hair, and on one side hung a beautiful decorative earring like a crystal flower, like a beautiful elf who knows how to decorate its own pointed ears as a racial trait...... Hey, forget it.

The young man shook his head, couldn't help but sneer, and then corrected the girl's misunderstanding: "I'm asking if you think these earrings look good?" ”

But in his previous life, he was obviously also a "magician" dressed in the skin of a warrior, and he forgot that he should actually wait for Xia to take the initiative to ask himself the question of "is it good", and then show a look of fascination, and the corners of his mouth bracket an appreciative smile to reply to her: "People are beautiful and everything is beautiful", right.

It was taught to him by a poet friend he had known in a previous life, a bohemian fellow, a self-proclaimed conqueror of wine and women, and a famous master of beauty hunting in the Emerald Bay, who preferred to spend his days in the city or country taverns playing the strings and honing his mouth skills rather than on epic adventures.

Thea's fair cheeks were still covered with two clusters of blush that had not yet dissipated. The silver-haired, wolf-eared, semi-bestial priest girl couldn't see what her ornamented human ears looked like, but she quickly pulled the hair on the side of her head behind her ears, and quietly decided to tie the hair on that side into a side braid to show her ears in the days to come, and nodded her head meekly and softly responded: "It's beautiful...... I love this little item, thank you, Urs. ”

The words between the words may be much inferior to the poet's rhetoric, but it is enough for the girl to convey the faint joy in her heart mixed with a half tactful shyness to the young man.

……

After about half an hour, the team ended their search for the treasure, and found that the collection of the shadow dragon Saxochothers was indeed more than a street below the level of the legendary red dragon treasure, and the more valuable magic items in such a large pile of things were actually only the fortress shield obtained by Koto, the electric claw fist obtained by Stone Fist, the movement fragment and Dansel's strings obtained by the crow, the sensorer earrings obtained by Thea, and the home remedy trioctahedron ore that Urs had picked up earlier.

Urs didn't try to explain to his teammates that the stone was actually an artifact, but was glad that it seemed to be in a sealed state at the moment, and then arranged for his team members to take a few weapons with +1 slight enchantment from the treasure pile to take them back to the city and sell them, and then returned to the boss battle cave in front of them to begin the follow-up work on disposing of the Shadow Dragon's corpse.

Saxother is an adult shadow dragon, its temper has a lot of arrogance like a red dragon in its temper, but the size of its body is estimated to be a whole circle smaller than that of red dragons of the same age, but fortunately, the corpse of a dragon is basically a treasure no matter what kind of category.

Under the command of the captain of the barbarian, the adventurers stripped off a few relatively intact dragon scales from its corpse, and took a little effort to dig through its chest and take the dragon heart inside, and by the way, they took out a small glass bottle with some dragon blood after drinking the potion and took it away, feeling that they had finally harvested a good harvest and turned back all the way back in the direction they came.

The jay had memorized a "percussion technique" in advance in her second-ring spell slot, and when everyone returned to the corridor behind the rock hall, she cast it to reopen the stone door that she had previously sealed with the "door sealing technique".

The Shadows and the few Shadow Fiends in the Rock Hall seemed to have been partially weakened by the death of the Shadow Dragon, and when the young adventure party drank the second round of Intermediate Resistance Energy Drain Potion from the time they entered the Shadow Ruins, Urs was still in charge of attracting the attention of the undead ghosts in the first place, but it was obvious that the Shadow Fiends in the shadows had reduced the amount of negative energy damage they had unleashed.

This is not bad news for everyone who has just experienced a dragon slaying battle.

The group passed through here again without any hindrance, and because Koto still had one arm folded, he did not fight, and then took advantage of the duration of the medicine to return all the way back to the Russ Canyon outside the ruins cave, and found that the air in the canyon was really fresh compared to the gloomy atmosphere in the ruins, and the other side of the sky had unconsciously turned into an orange dusk, and it had been more than half a day since everyone entered the ruins in the early morning.

It was not early, but fortunately the clouds were not cloudy, and it should not rain for the next while.

After a long time of deliberation, Urs arranged for everyone to spend the night outside the cave entrance, and then returned the next day with the spoils of this adventure, and returned to Twilight City by noon.

In contrast to the treacherous dungeon environment of the shadowy ruins, Twilight is at least superficially peaceful, giving the triumphant return of the crowd a sudden sense of home, even though adventurers generally do not have a fixed place to live, and the villas and mansions in the wealthy areas are ultimately just adventure strongholds shared by everyone.

Of course, since the five-star adventure mission of "Ruins of Ras Canyon" was secretly released to the Thorn Squad by the Elven Swordsman Draco on behalf of the Adventurers' Association and the dragon vein mage behind the scenes, Victor, the city do-gooder only thought that everyone had made an ordinary bounty mission in the direction of the Spotted Axe Forest after getting the first-hand news of the team's return.

The so-called ordinary bounty mission was naturally a cover that Draco had conceived for the young man from the beginning of the trip, to avoid some unnecessary eyes.

And after returning to the city, and moving a large pile of the team's loot back to the villa stronghold, the crow disappeared without noticing, and probably went to play with her lute, and perhaps returned in the evening as usual.

The other five adventurers in the party immediately split up, with Thea taking advantage of her status as a priest and Stonefist to send Koto to the temple area to heal his injuries, while Urs and Grolaydon took time to go to the business district, planning to dispose of some of the things that were not needed in the loot as usual and sell them for money.

As a city of adventurers who maintain a neutral diplomatic stance, Twilight has a relatively liberal jurisdiction over the beliefs in the city, and since the year after the founding of the city, priests other than the evil camp have been allowed to preach freely in the city's temple area, trying to make the gods they serve become the mainstream objects of worship among the city's civilians in a relatively fair competition.

With some of the authority that the Sogo Church had brought from the Golden Empire, the popular faith of the god of justice, Gazteth, had developed in order in Twilight over the course of several years, and it didn't take long for Thea and Stonefist to find the corresponding church, and apply for a theological healing service from an elderly mid-ranking priest who was resident in the church to "heal a moderate injury".

The Priest's healing technique can restore the vitality of injured living creatures by channeling the positive energy of magic, but it cannot fundamentally heal the injuries and illnesses of the target creatures, and the latter two types of problem solving processes are called "healing injuries" and "healing diseases", respectively.

Fractures are a moderate level of injury for Castaño's priests, and can be healed by casting the 5 rings to "heal moderate injuries", and the upper 7 rings to "cure severe injuries" can even produce the magic effect of amputated limb regeneration on living creatures with mutilated limbs.

Koto's left arm, which was discounted by a sweeping attack from Saxothers, could not be quickly cured with the 3-ring "Cure Minor Injuries", but it was not the turn to waste a "Cure Serious Injuries", not to mention that the old priest in the church who cast spells on the dwarven warriors to heal his wounds was only a middle-level priest who believed in the god of justice, and he could not cast a high-level magic that belonged to the list of 7~9 rings.

By the time the dwarf had healed his arm wounds, and the young man and the old thief had almost finished their work in the business district, the group had finally returned to their villas in the wealthy part of the city before dinner.

Draco's mission to the team on behalf of the Adventurers' Guild was the same as the last "Cave of Bones", and everyone did not need to go to the guild hall to report. He promised them that he would come back again when they returned with the fruits of victory.

And that night, the figure of the elven demon swordsman arrived as promised......
