“This is where Lord Frey is. According to etiquette, whatever you want to do, you have to wait until Lord Frey leaves.”
Hill's expression was indifferent.
"Then let's have a fight."
Tassanya was eager to try.
"You look like you've been seriously injured."
Hill took the bow and arrows off his back.
"That can still beat you up."
Tassanya grinned, and a hint of dragon might emanated from her.
A major battle seems imminent.
But the next second, the man standing next to Hill patted Hill on the shoulder, signaling her to put down the bow.
He smiled and looked at Tassanya, then said:
"Tassanya, where's Will? I haven't seen him lately."
The dragon's might has vanished.
"Lord Will always likes to disguise himself as an ordinary person and go hunting with adventure teams, as you know, Lord Frey."
Tassanya laughed.
"Oh, I see. I hadn't seen him in so long, I thought he was dead."
Frey finished speaking.
This time, not only did Longwei's smile vanish, but Tassanya's smile also disappeared.
"Lord Frey, please be careful with your words."
Despite being threatened by Tassanya, Frey seemed unfazed and laughed:
"Just kidding. I just hope you take good care of him. After all, you know what would happen to you if something happened to your father's most beloved son, right?"
Tassanya fell silent.
"By the way? You just said you were looking for someone. Who are you looking for? Will?"
Frey's smile was harmless.
But the words were like a giant python, suffocating Tassanya.
Luo Xiu watched this scene from behind the door, and suddenly a bold idea came to his mind.
He looked at old White, whose face was full of worry, and said:
"Old White, wanna make a bet?"
"Bet, what bet?"
Old White raised his eyelids.
"I bet if I go outside and whistle at that elf now, Tassanya will applaud for me, how about it?"
"The stakes are that general skills book."
Chapter 22 Red Dragon's Friend
"This joke isn't funny, kid."
Old Huai, taking Luo Xiu's nonsense as a sign of privilege, didn't pay much attention.
He stared blankly at the parrot that hopped from his shoulder onto the counter, as if he were deep in thought.
But Luo Xiu excitedly approached from the doorway, lightly tapping the table and interrupting his thoughts:
"I'm not kidding, old White. So, how about a bet?"
"You're saying that red dragon will applaud you from the sidelines? Why don't you say she'd let you touch her butt?!"
Old White finished his sarcastic remark with a hint of annoyance, then sighed:
"Stop teasing Luo Xiu, I'm thinking about serious matters."
Luo Xiu's eyes lit up after hearing what Old White said:
"Touching my butt is fine too! It's settled then!"
He smiled and shook the skill book he had been holding in his hand:
"I'll keep this for now, and if I win, I'll take it."
"If I lose, go find Leila. She has about a hundred copper coins there, all of them are yours."
After saying that, without giving old White a chance to refute, he rushed out of the door.
Old White, seeing that Luo Xiu had disappeared, panicked and jumped up and down in a panic:
"He's gone mad, this kid has definitely gone mad..."
After a fit of angry cursing, he slumped into a chair, his already wrinkled face looking even older.
He glanced at the parrot on the table, hesitated for a few seconds, and then said helplessly:
"Rad, you go and follow them."
The parrot squawked once, flapped its wings, and flew out through the small window in the door.
Old White sighed deeply:
"What's going on here?"
He stood up and walked towards the small window by the door.
He had already prepared for the worst, after all, in his opinion, what Luo Xiu said was a complete fantasy.
……
Outside the door at this moment.
The atmosphere, which had reached a freezing point because of Frey's last question, was broken with the appearance of Luo Xiu.
The townspeople and homeless merchants, kneeling on the ground trembling, had no idea what was happening, but they heard a clear whistle behind them.
Frey, Hill, and Tassania looked at the suddenly appearing Luo Xiu.
The expressions on their faces varied.
Frey frowned in confusion, unsure who this man who had suddenly appeared before him was.
Hill remained expressionless, but a hint of anger flickered in her eyes.
Because she sensed that the man's whistle was directed at her.
That's absolutely impolite!
Tassanya's expression was more varied, with anger, confusion, bewilderment, and unease all intertwined on her face.
She was furious that Luo Xiu had actually shown up, and she couldn't wait to tear him to pieces.
At the same time, I was very confused.
They wondered how Luo Xiu's injuries had healed, and why he dared to run out at this time.
Because these questions remained unanswered, a vague sense of unease lingered in her heart.
The image of being tricked by Luo Xiu last night flashed through her mind, and she had a very ominous premonition.
Good morning, gentlemen.
Luo Xiu's bright smile contrasted sharply with the expressions of the three people opposite him.
"...And you are?"
Frey held down Hill, who was about to make a move, and asked.
"Dave, the greatest goblin slayer in Wheeltown."
Luo Xiu answered without hesitation.
"..."
Frey released his grip on Hill.
A rare, cold smile appeared on Hill's lips as he took out the bow from behind him and aimed it at Luo Xiu.
Ha, the greatest goblin slayer in Wheel Town, huh?
If you're whistling at yourself, then go die.
She had already planned out Luo Xiu's fate.
"Whistle on Lord Frey, and you'll be punished with two arrows."
Luo Xiu watched as the elf slowly drew back the bowstring, aiming it at him, his smile unchanged.
"You're being far too impulsive. I'm Tassanya's friend. You wouldn't dare draw your bow against me, would you?"
Tassanya's friend?
Frey and Hill were both taken aback and looked at Tassanya beside them.
How could they not know that this red dragon had friends?
Tassanya, who was also completely bewildered, immediately wanted to deny it.
But Luo Xiu on the other side continued to speak:
“Lord Frey, you just asked who Tassanya came to see. Now I’ll answer you. She came to see me, right, Tassanya?”
Luo Xiu smiled and looked at Tassanya.
He casually slipped his right hand into his pocket and pulled out half of a seemingly ordinary black rope.
Tassanya looked at the black rope.
The next second, her pupils contracted sharply, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
She recognized it; it was the rope protected by thorns!
