Chapter 36 Throwing stones and asking for directions
Although she didn't achieve the desired goal, Lucia couldn't blame the adjutant for being too cooperative, so it would be called anger instead of blame.
"Alright then, let's let you go as promised. ”
The adjutant was a little suspicious of his ears, and he would never do such a move to let the tiger go back to the mountain
"Let's go, I'll really kill you next time I come in." ”
Lucia waved her hand indifferently.
The adjutant suddenly understood that from the very beginning, his group of people had not been placed in the position of the enemy, but were just a group of vermins that had entered the master's house without permission, which was really a bitter fact, but because of this, he picked up a life, and the adjutant's bitterness finally became a bitter smile.
"Einstein, let him go. ”
Raising her volume slightly, Lucia shouted in the direction of what might have been Einstein.
-- Worthy of my lord, it is truly fascinating wisdom. Einstein praised his master's resourcefulness while operating "Death Row Without Injury" to open an exit and let the man leave, incidentally dividing a small bit of magic on the magic barrier and sticking to the man.
Even if the owner did not expect it, Einstein offered to let the intruder go.
Not because of compassion, but because of the need for a waystone.
If Einstein guessed correctly, there was someone or something else in the city that functioned like a computer security butler to maintain the city's apparent normalcy and calm. The remnant of the man was released to prove this suspicion.
"What's going on, this is!"
Jonathan pushed open the door of the main room and rushed out in a panic.
Jonathan, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by a loud noise, and immediately guessed that someone was attacking, he panicked and put on his clothes and rushed downstairs, and all he saw was the destroyed walls and floors, as well as the black ash all over the room.
"Is the eldest lady okay?"
Lucia stood in the courtyard, which reassured Jonathan a little, but he still cautiously sneaked up on Lucia.
"Jonathan, what did you just do?"
Seeing Jonathan, Lucia realized that this guy had not been seen all along.
"What are you doing...... Sleeping, of course....... ”
This answer even Jonathan himself felt a little blushing, and he was still sleeping a lot, in order to prevent being directly exposed, Jonathan immediately changed the topic.
"Speaking of enemies?"
"The battle is over, and the enemy is a thief with little combat power. ”
Lucia is too strong, just as humans can't tell which chicken is more powerful, and Lucia can't accurately tell which human is strong or weak.
“...... Yes, yes, look at the traces of the battle like a thief can inflict it. ”
If a thief can be so strong in combat, he can be a thief, so he can simply form an armed organization. But Jonathan didn't want to ask too many questions, lest he touch on questions that shouldn't be touched.
"I was underestimated as a thief, and I knew a lot of powerful thieves, the three sisters in tights, and so on. Also, your clothes are dirty. ”
Following Lucia's raised fingers, Jonathan also noticed that the corner of his coat was stained with black ash.
"Really, what is this black dust?
Jonathan has always cherished this monster skin coat, and even when he sleeps, he will carefully spread it on the quilt to prevent wrinkles, but he didn't expect to accidentally get dirty.
"Isn't it poisonous or something?"
The black ash fell off as soon as it was shot, and soon the freshman year was cleaned up, but Jonathan still asked uneasily.
"It's not poisonous, it's part of the animal. ”
"Part of the animal?"
Jonathan raised his hand in front of his eyes to see some ash coming from his coat.
"Is it animal ashes or something?"
Confused, Jonathan twisted some black ash and put it in his mouth.
"It doesn't smell burnt, it's a bit like stone powder. ”
Lucia looked at Jonathan's behavior, disgusting legs also took a few steps, although she deliberately vaguely said that humans are animals, but someone would put it in their mouths so easily and taste it.
"I didn't expect you to have such a strong taste. ”
Jonathan watched Lucia retreat a little amusedly, thinking to himself that she was worthy of being the eldest lady, and she would make a fuss about such a trivial matter.
"The eldest lady may not have imagined that we poor orphans are not in such good conditions to eat normal things, and even rotting animals will eat when we are so hungry. ”
"Does that include humans? ”
It didn't take much time for Einstein to deal with Constantine, so he had already walked back.
"Those ashes were still human a few minutes ago. ”
Jonathan's face changed, and he turned his head to look at Lucia with difficulty, and Lucia nodded uncontrollably.
There was a tumult in his stomach, dinner began to climb up, and Jonathan even felt the taste of human flesh in his mouth, although he had no idea what human flesh tasted like, but imagination always worked wonders.
"Hmm......"
Syllable.
When Jonathan was about to throw up, Einstein slapped Jonathan's back and slapped Jonathan's vomit back into his stomach.
"Do you want to defile my lord's eyes with such a disgusting thing in front of my lord?"
"Ahem, ahem!"
The feeling of the reflux of vomit was more painful than normal procedures, and Jonathan's tears and snot were flowing and coughing, which once again showed Jonathan how bad and cruel Einstein really was, and how he didn't take humans seriously.
"My lord, please come by your side, the cough of mud rats will pollute your aroma. ”
Glancing at Jonathan with disdain, Einstein protected Lucia behind him, as if he was really guarding against Jonathan's pollution.
"Ahem, ahem. ”
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't win, Jonathan promised to cough the black-hearted butler with a face that was foaming at the mouth.
"You two have such a good relationship, this is called bad friends. ”
Lucia watched the interaction between Einstein and Jonathan with a look on her face that I saw through everything.
"My lord, jokes aside, let's get rid of the remaining rats first. ”
Einstein looked in the direction of the corner of the courtyard.
"Is there anything there?"
Lucia tilted her head and looked, missing nothing.
"Please wait. ”
Einstein dissipated the sword of darkness in his hand.
"'Shadows swim on the surface of the water, and fish that eat human flesh'. ”
The shadow beneath Einstein's feet began to distort and slowly took the shape of a fish.
"'Go, don't kill'. ”
Receiving the order, the shadow fish sprang out and galloped towards the corner of the courtyard.
"Damn, it's been discovered!"
With a shout, three people rolled out of the corner of the yard.
"Who?"
Lucia looked at the embarrassed trio suspiciously.
