Chapter 65: The Boss's Advice

Central City, High Street.

In the middle of the night, Edward, a weak foreigner, walked down the street, speeding towards his goal.

The place he was going to was called the Resurrection's Cottage, a dessert shop.

When he was staying at Kane's house some time ago, he had been to the Resurrection Cottage once. On that occasion, he bought a few scoops of ice cream with the gold he had earned from Emilia, and the people there called them "Brains of the Reborn".

Despite the scary name, it was unexpectedly delicious, and Edward would never forget the sweet and slippery ice cream after tasting it once.

Compared to the Brain of the Reborn, the ice cream in Hoag House is simply pig food, it tastes like chewing wax, and it is unpalatable!

"Boss, I want the Brain of the Reborn. ”

Rushing to the Resurrection's hut, Edward couldn't wait to fill his stomach with ice cream.

"Well, it's yours. "Even though it's dark at night, the business of this dessert shop is still thriving.

The boss skillfully took the coin and handed the ice cream to Edward, and finally, he looked at Edward deeply a few times, as if he noticed something unusual.

"Young man, you ......" The boss hesitated a little, and hesitated.

"Oh, you mean my hair? Hehe, I don't know why they're white. Edward replied with a smile.

"No, I don't mean your hair color, there are a lot of outlanders like you in Central City, hehe, I've been used to it for a long time, and I won't be surprised if it's weird. Just, I'm your ......"

"My, what?" Edward wondered.

All over his body, apart from the very different silver-white short hair covering his eyes, is there anything else that can arouse the curiosity of others?

"Your eyes ......," said the boss, who said to Edward worriedly, "young man, you must sleep well, or you will be like you now." ”

"Huh, what's wrong with me?"

"Oh, look at your panda eyes, how ugly, the dark circles are so thick...... Why stay up so often?"

"Uh......"

"Listen to me, young man. Look at you, you can't even walk steadily, your face is bloodless, your lips are white, if you continue like this, your body will collapse!"

"No, no, no, you misunderstood, my dark circles are natural! Also, the reason why I, I am so weak is because I was stabbed several times the day before yesterday, so I ......" Edward Khan hurriedly defended himself.

"How many times have you been stabbed?" ......the boss frowned slightly and sighed helplessly.

Apparently, he thought Edward was lying.

I was stabbed several times the day before yesterday, and today I can already wander around the streets - such an unbelievable thing, I believe that no human will agree.

"I ......"

"Young man, don't say any more, look at your weak appearance, you must take care of your body in the future. The boss shook his head, with an expression that I knew as someone I had come over.

"Okay......"

Edward is mute and eats coptis, and he can't say what he suffers.

He can't tell the boss that he is actually a demon king, and his body is different from ordinary humans, even if he is stabbed more than a dozen times, he can't die.

Even if he did say that, I'm afraid no one would believe him.

Seeing Edward's stubborn appearance, the boss didn't say much, silently took another box of ice cream and handed it to Edward.

"W-This?" asked Edward inexplicably.

"Do you like ice cream, young man? The boss looked at Edward pitifully, and gave him a box of ice cream for free, "After eating these, you must remember to go back to sleep!

"Okay......

Edward took the box of ice cream and wanted to cry without tears.

I still remember that the last time he came to the house of the resurrected, this boss also complained about his dark circles and gave him an extra ice cream ball, this time, although this boss had forgotten about him a long time ago, but he didn't forget to continue to complain, and this time he was more generous than last time, giving him a whole box.

"Thank you. Edward politely thanked him.

"Be careful, young man, there are so many drunks out there, don't get caught up in them. ”

"I will. ”

"Well, you say, why do those guys like to drink? Cakes and ice cream are much tastier. ”

"Agreed!"

"Alright, young man, go home early, don't let me see your panda eyes again next time!"

"Okay......

Edward ate the delicious Brain of the Resurrected as he left the Resurrector Hut, intending to return to Hoag House the way he came.

"Well, it's so delicious!Ahhh

Edward devoured the box in his hand. He devoured one scoop of ice cream at a faster pace, waving his hands back and forth excitedly, baring his teeth and claws like a madman.

"Uh-huh...... It's amazing!It's delicious!Wow......"

Edward was so happy that his weak body seemed to be rejuvenated, and he walked up and down the alley like a child who had not grown up.

The alley was dimly lit, except for the faint light of the bar not far away.

As the owner said, as he walked past the bar, Edward did meet several unconscious drunks.

Their steps were fluttering, their limbs were limp, and their eyes were foggy, and they wandered aimlessly and aimlessly through the streets.

Entangled?

No, they don't even have the ability to protect themselves, let alone bother other passers-by.

There were no drunks to disturb him eating, and Edward was in a good mood.

"Huh, this shop is so familiar......"

That bar has a special name, it's called Bloody Night.

The bar looked very stylish on Bloody Night, and Edward felt familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

It seems that this is the place where he went to drink with Emilia before.

Bloody Night - Emilia and Angelina are the shop's long-time patrons, and for them, this place can be regarded as a base.

And, according to Amilia, that's where the two of them met.

"I can't help them, is that really that good? Hey, humans are really weird......"

Edward stood in front of the bar and watched.

Although it was the middle of the night, there were still many depressed people who crowded into the bar and tried to numb themselves with alcohol.

They naively think that by this self-deception, they can get back on their feet, but the truth is often quite the opposite.

They walked listlessly into the bar, and when they finally left, they became even more insane and insane, and the next day they were greeted with empty purses, and double the pain and loss.

"Hey, why bother......"

Edward remembered the two men. Emilia and Angelina.

If Emilia likes to drink because she doesn't get drunk, she just likes it, then why does Angelina?

Even if she has a mysterious identity and an unknown past, shouldn't she be happy in her life now?

"Emilia ......"

Edward shook his head and left the bar on his way home.

Emilia hadn't been seen all day, maybe she was drinking with Angelina on a bloody night, maybe she had returned to Edward's room early to try to make up for her mistake.

"Forget it, whatever. I'd better go back quickly, or I'll be miserable if I'm targeted by that strange demon. Is it a demon fox, or something? Angelina's little imp is definitely scaring me!"

Despite this, Edward picked up his pace.

Da-da-da-da.

In the quiet alley, Edward's footsteps were exceptionally clear, and there was no sound at all. The whole alley was blackened, and at this moment, it seemed that he was the only one left in the world.

But Edward knew that the journey was not alone.

Although the sneaky guys were cautious, tiptoeing behind without making a sound, Edward spotted them.

Although the effect of his Demon King Domain was weakened a lot, and it was only able to slightly improve his five senses, relying on his extraordinary eyesight and hearing, Edward still found the few small tails following him.

The men would stop every few steps, hide behind cover and peek at his reactions, only to keep up after making sure they weren't spotted by him.

For them, it is estimated that they have done this kind of thing many times, and they are already familiar with it.

They divided their forces into two routes, a few men followed from a distance, and after determining Edward's route, they divided a few more men to make a detour to the front, trying to stop him, and then flanking him back and forth.

"Tsk...... Nasty guys. Edward was unhappy.

If it was placed in the past, with the Demon King Realm, he could easily control the movements of all of them, and then freely choose whether to play with them, or keep a low profile and find a loophole to leave quietly, but now, after recovering from a serious injury, he can only barely detect that there are people following him, as for their numbers and movements, he doesn't know anything, so he can only guess.

Edward quickened his pace.

However, those people are old fritters, how can they let him escape so easily?

Sure enough, it didn't take long for two smiling people to come out of nowhere and block Edward's way, and at the same time, the two people who followed behind also caught up and blocked Edward's retreat.

The alley was so narrow and long that it was difficult for Edward to fly if he was caught between them. He had to stand honestly in place, carefully observing the people in front of him.

Four people. Three of them were second-level fighters, and the remaining one was third-level warriors. They all had sharp swords in their hands, and the cold light was chilling.

If it was Edward at his peak, with the Demon King Realm, he could have dealt with them even with his bare hands, but now, ......

"Boy, look at your eyes, where are you from?" asked a man with a scar on his face, grinning.
