Chapter 34 : A Peculiar City

In the misty bathroom, the fair skin gradually blends with the water, like a hibiscus that has not yet come out of the water, budding to be released, slightly shy but elegant. Of course, if such an unknown side were to be looked at by her companions, I don't know how they would feel. Thinking of this, she buried half of her face in the water, pursed her lips and spat bubbles. Maybe it's been too long since she showed this side, and she didn't know where to start, she lived by herself until that person broke in and broke into her life. This person is the same kind as her, both persecuted by absolute technology, and they have gone through several battles together, and they have met new partners along the way, and now, she can finally be sure that this person can be trusted!

But......

However, there are some things that she still doesn't want to say, for fear that he will be surprised when he finds out? Or is she afraid that after this point is exposed, it will become a burden to them? She doesn't know that the feeling of companionship is too familiar to her, but it is too unfamiliar, and maybe, she will need to get used to it for a while......

She didn't miss the comfort of the bath too much like other girls, and she didn't want to stay too long, for fear that something would happen. After wrapping her towel and drying her long hair, she hurried out of the bathroom to get ready to rest.

Naroaka's night fell quickly, and when she came out, it was already pitch black outside the window. Climbing into bed, she didn't even cover the quilt, she lay down on her side, and the fatigue of the journey made her fall asleep quickly. Her eyelashes drooped slightly, not as slender as other girls, but the unique pale cyan color alone was enough to outperform others by three points. Her breasts, which were not too full, rose and fell regularly in the moonlight, not turning from side to side and swaying, and her limbs were just right where they should be. In her dream, she showed her unknown girlish side, the kind of cultivation that penetrates into the bones. The whole room was silent, except for the sound of water dripping in the bathroom, almost no other sound could be heard, even the sound of her breathing, it was hard to feel.

She slept deeply......

......

At the moment, Lore and Sword had just found a restaurant and were ready to settle their dinner problem. It seems a bit too general to say that it is a restaurant, but it is actually a medieval-style restaurant, all silver tableware, wine vessels and candlesticks, which are the unique scenery on the table, and scarlet wine and fragrant steaks are the signature of this restaurant. Not only is this restaurant gorgeous, but its scale is also quite large, and if it weren't for the lack of rooms for people to stay, I am afraid that it would have become one of the best five-star hotels in the area. They chose such a luxurious place to dine, not because they had a lot of money, but because they felt that there were more upper-class people who would come here to dine, so that they could learn more about this strange city.

They pretended to eat while observing the situation around them. In the evening, the whole of Naroaka becomes more crowded, and the flow of people in the restaurant is relatively large, but it is not crowded, and the order of a high-end restaurant is still maintained. Although the people around him were pale, they talked and behaved like ordinary people.

There doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary......

"In my opinion, if you are looking for someone to ask for information, it is better to go to a place like a bar, and it may be a little inconvenient to talk to strangers here. Sword suggested, unscrewing a bottle of scarlet wine and giving some to Lore and himself.

"Since the master is an older generation of battle soul ability, he is bound to be hunted down by absolute technology. How to say that this is also the territory of the 'Six Soul Heavenly King', and it may invite unnecessary risks to inquire about it. Lore fell into deep thought. Old Man Speight's previous words confirmed that the name 'Kaye' was indeed his master's real name, and since the master had asked him to come here, he should have left a way for Lore to find him. Remembering that he had been saved by Karyana, Lore had a bold conjecture, but he shook his head again, as if he thought it was too absurd.

"Oh? What do you think of?" Sword said, holding his glass, tilting his head, and staring at Lore.

"No, nothing, maybe I'm thinking too much. ”

"No, it doesn't hurt to talk about it. Sword encouraged him to continue.

"I'm wondering if this Naroaka is a hidden stronghold of the master......"

"Build a stronghold in the enemy's sphere of influence?! This is unlikely, but it cannot be ruled out. But...... If there is such a stronghold, how can we find it? Can a few of us outsiders find it, after hiding under the enemy's nose for so long, and not being discovered for so long?"

Lore did not refute, Sword's words are not unreasonable, it may really be his own whimsy, this kind of stronghold, it is good to say that it does not exist, but once it exists, it is difficult to find. He simply didn't think about it, and drank the wine in the glass, but immediately squirted out the wine, making the other side of Sword look good.

"Lore, you...... What do you mean by that......" Sword looked at Lore, who was coughing in front of him, confused.

Lore coughed for a while, then said, "You taste this wine......

Sword looked at the red liquid in his hand, sniffed it, frowned, and took a sip. As soon as the wine is entered, a unique fishy smell explodes in the mouth, straight to the nasal cavity, without the bitterness and spiciness, nor the sweetness of fruit wine, this liquid gives people only the feeling of saltiness, fishy to make people sick, fishy to make people shudder, people can't help but think of ......

Blood!

"Is there anything about our wine that dislikes you both?" Seeing this scene, the waiter on the side greeted him with a smile.

"Why does your wine taste like blood?" Sword said half-jokingly, trying not to arouse suspicion.

"Guest, you are really good at laughing, our blood wine is naturally brewed from blood, and it will naturally smell of blood when you drink it. The waiter replied with a smile.

"Haha, my friend drank blood wine for the first time, and he is not used to it, don't you mind. Lore hurriedly said after hearing this.

"Oh, I see. Then if there is anything you need me to do, please feel free to come to me. The waiter smiled again, pointed to the counter not far away, and then left on his own.

When the waiter was far away, Sword muttered in a low voice, "Are all the people here crazy? ”

"Indeed, I looked around just now, and there are too many people ordering this wine, and all of them are locals in terms of skin color, I really didn't expect that there are bloodthirsty habits here......" Lore said with some emotion.

The bloody drinking incident greatly reduced the appetite of the two, and they settled the bill and left in a hurry. The streets outside are full of people, and although they can't compare with those big cities, the feeling of cold and dead silence in the daytime is completely incomprehensible. The two walked back to the hotel, thinking about their next steps.

"If it weren't for the fritz guy's rush to rest, we should have gone downtown to find a hotel. Lore complained that their hotel, though close to the city gate, was far from the city center, and that the two of them had been delayed for a long time back and forth. There were fewer and fewer people around, and in the end only the two of them remained.

Suddenly, there was a strange sound in front of them, and the two walked over to take a look, only to see a few strangely dressed young men in the dark alley on the side, who were surrounding a young woman with bad intentions......
