Second update!

Today is a rare sunny day since the storm season.

Looking into the distance from the narrow cracks between the studded stone floors, you can even see the blue sky above the distant ocean. There are only a few wisps of water that are evaporated, and the hazy mist at the end of the sight is painted with a charming mist. But this is just a short illusion. In the sky beyond the reach of the sight, under the deep sea that cannot be reached, the ocean and the gods of the storm that are awe-inspiring by the world are still throwing coins, using the two sides of the coins to determine when another hurricane will come.

When he was about to get home, Lu Yuewu suddenly asked, "Li Ou, when are you going?"

"Wait first." Li Ou had a plan, "at least we have to give our Knight a headache for a while." If you act too anxiously and can't wait to come to the door - this is exactly what the Knight wants to see. "Calm down and think about it," Li Ou said, "The time is still sufficient. The more anxious you are at this time, the more dangerous it is."

"I know." The girl nodded, "It's not wise to rush into inquiries just for speculation."

"This is a long-term job." Li Ou inserted the key into the keyhole. "In fact, after leaving the tavern, I didn't have much expectation about it. If the gravekeeper and the resentful spirit were as envisioned as the Rose Knight, I could have imagined that we would return empty-handed."

"He must have other plans."

"Yes-" Li Ou turned the key and held the handle at the same time, "It is better if we succeed, and if we fail, we will lose no loss. Maybe when Sister Ghost Shadow comes to us, she can still pull us into the water as a shield."

"Don't you think so too?"

Although the girl often chooses to remain silent, she is as insightful as she can see the fire.

"Who told him to talk about 'trust' with me?" Li Ou shrugged and pushed open the door. "Trust is like gold coins, and it can only be earned by action. And 'People who keep their trust on their lips are often the most untrustable.' This is an ancient proverb that has been passed down to this day, reminding us to take it as a warning. But our Knight obviously forgot this. From this point of view, the White Rose Knight's title is not as valuable as before."

As they entered the house, a cry of implicit anger rang behind them. "Stop!" was the cry of a girl. "Stop!" she shouted again.

The girl ran from the opposite side of the street and squeezed through the shuttle pedestrians. Her red hair flew like a flame. She was like a running cat, and stepped up the steps in two steps. Before Leo stepped into the door, she pressed her right hand on the door frame and stopped him at Leo's own door.

The girl's face was so close that he could almost smell the fragrance emitted by the other person. It mixed with the faint fragrance of wine that her breathing spitted out, forming a fascinating temptation. Her eyes, which seemed to be an amber-colored glass bead, showed unyielding tenacity, and looked at Leo's scrutiny without being outdone.

"Get out of the way." Lu Yuewu warned.

The girl glared at Lu Yuewu fiercely, and her eyes swept over Lu Yuewu's index finger pressing on the hilt of the sword. She bit her lip and withdrew her hand angrily, but she still stood by the door and refused to let her go.

"Is there any problem, Miss?"

"I want my staff." She said in a firm tone with no room for maneuvering, and repeated it again, "I want to get it back." Her eyes were fixed on Leo, with dangerous flames leaping in it.

Li Ou had guessed her purpose, but she didn't expect her to go straight in. He originally planned to invite the other party to come in and talk in detail. At this time, people were coming and going on the street, and he really had no interest in discussing these with her. Although the girl in front of him had the wild charm of a cheetah.

"I've saved the siege for you." He reminded the other party, "No one will give help for no reason unless he has ulterior motives. Moreover, since you are willing to come to collect debts, why don't you take out the gold coins?"

"Because..." The red-haired girl suddenly stammered, as if there was a reason for embarrassment that bothered her. She twisted and pondered for a long time, and finally became angry. "You know its value!" She said dissatisfiedly, "That old man doesn't know the goods, but you are not! It is..."

"Purple-leaf oak branch. Did I admit it wrong?" Leo interrupted her, "but now it only has a small part of it, and it cannot even be used as a staff. Even the gem base is artificially damaged."

"But it is still valuable." The red-haired girl took a step forward and forced him with her hot gaze. Somehow, Leo suddenly felt a certain majesty flashing in her beautiful amber eyes, which were not like a king, but like the ruler of the vast earth. "At least," the girl whispered in a slightly hoarse voice. Leo even heard the girl's teeth being twitched due to anger. "It should pay more than you. You must... well, make up for the difference." Finally, she added, "You have to use gold coins."

Li Ou was sure that her feelings must have been wrong just now. She was simply a greedy person with money, so how could she have the majesty of forcing others? She kept saying three words without leaving gold coins.

"Li Ou." A disharmonious voice suddenly penetrated. "How long has it been since the disappointed and angry guests come to ask for an explanation? What did you do to make the beautiful lady so angry?"

Without looking back, Li Ou knew what expression the other person had on his face at this time.

Leo turned around. Andrewson, opposite the street, held a wooden box in his hand, and a sword with a gem-inlaid sword on his waist. He looked like he was going home, and his face was covered in dust and sweat. But now he had a sarcastic expression on his face, and sweat and dust flowed on his twisted muscles and wrinkles, which was particularly ridiculous.

"More opener than what you did." Leo snorted coldly, "At least I can still confront guests in the street. What about you? You only know how to use sticks and swords to drive guests out."

"You are more suitable to be a street vendor, Leo." Andrewson's smile suddenly disappeared, because the street-watchers had already held him with doubtful eyes. "When you lose everything you have now, that will be your only way out for a living." He cursed viciously, "Of course, out of friendship, I will prepare some beggars for you and let them make some space for you."

"I'm extremely looking forward to that day." It's useless to say more to him. Leo turned to today's uninvited guest. "Miss, I think we should go in and chat. It's too noisy here."

"Miss." Andrewson shouted across the street, "If you need any help, come and find me. He is not worthy of your trust. He is a liar who only talks. Be careful when dealing with him, you will be deceived so that nothing will be left."

Andrewson's malicious warning came too late. The girl had indeed dealt with him - now it was the second time. It was not impossible to say that she was a "repeater". Although he didn't know her name yet.

Andrewson deliberately smeared him and tried to raise his image by belittled others. But his sweaty look really hard to imagine how brilliant and tall his image was. And his endless talk made the girl furious. If Leo was a liar, then what would she be who had received her favor before and turned her back and found her door? Or was she a fool with a brain or an idiot with an unconscious mind?

"Shut up!" she shouted, "What are you?"

She raised her fingers, and in the moment, the restless magic power suddenly made Li Ou see a trace of Mars flashing by her fingertips. A heat spread out instantly, burning the air, causing Li Ou next to her to smell the burnt smell. He even felt his entire lungs instantly filled with burning, suffocating air.

Then—almost just when Leo felt that a ball of flame would appear out of thin air in the next second—the sheathed sword pressed her arm.

The person holding the hilt of the sword is Lu Yuewu.

"Don't do it here," she said.

The girl clenched her fists. Red hair flew behind her head, like a flame of rage. "You are the one he insulted." She roared in a low voice, "You just let him slander without saying a word? Coward! Coward!"

"Do you want to burn him to death or destroy the entire street?" Leo said, "The prison and the gallows are waiting for you to choose. What's more, no wise man and his predecessors call the act of fighting bravely." Leo shrugged, "Miss, what wine do you want to have? The sweet and delicious red wine or the Asmos wine you ordered last time?" He led the other party into the door, "As for him... let him shout. See when he can call." Scream for a while. Leo was looking forward to it. The more you shout, the more stupid you look. Because you didn't even know about it when you walked around the door of the God of Death.
