To buy a dictionary late at night, in a city that’s somewhat chaotic . Furthermore, I obviously look like someone from Intis . That really is rather dangerous… No, I can’t keep wearing this glove… Danitz was stunned for a few seconds before he raised his hand and attempted to take off his boxing glove .
When he was halfway done, he suddenly paused and sized up Anderson . When he saw him wearing a black glove on his left hand, he did a hollow chuckle and wore his glove again .
“I believe that in the Southern Continent, a place like this requires strength,” Danitz added with a faint smile .
Anderson’s expression remained the same as he continued stroking his chin .
“Then, what do you plan on doing?”
Danitz pointed at the staircase and said, “I plan on finding the hotel’s boss and borrow his dictionary . I believe he will be teaching his children Dutanese . ”
“That’s an idea worth pursuing . But even with a dictionary, you won’t be able to master it anytime soon . Even if you grasp a few terms, it will still be rather difficult . After all, the language here is a completely different system from the Northern Continent,” Anderson said with a tsk . “Why don’t I suggest a solution for you . Your captain has likely taught you some ritualistic magic in the God of Knowledge and Wisdom domain, right?”
“Yes,” Danitz replied with a nod without a second thought .
Anderson clapped his hands and said,
Danitz shook his head without hesitation .
“I believe in the Lord of Storms, and not the God of Knowledge and Wisdom . The reason why some of the ritualistic magic cast in the past had received a reply was because of Captain . ”
Upon saying that, he shot Anderson a glance .
“Weren’t you born in Segar, growing up in Lenburg, being classmates with Captain?
“Then you should also be a believer of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom . Wouldn’t it be more effective if you held the ritual?”
Anderson shook his head and laughed .
“Despite being believers all the same, those who can actually receive a reply are in the extreme minority . ”
Seemingly in thought, he said, “The best method is to find a priest or bishop from the Church of Knowledge . Get them to make some charms, uh—I recall that there are a few pilgrims from Lenburg here in Behrens Harbor . Why don’t we visit them tomorrow…”
Danitz was just about to say “yes” when he suddenly revealed a look of suspicion .
“I have this nagging feeling that you are up to something…”
Anderson’s expression immediately froze .
On the airship, Klein had his seatbelt buckled and had a blanket over him as he leaned against his seat, already in deep sleep .
At this moment, it was dark outside . There was little light from the lands, and the scenery swept across slowly despite moving at a high speed . Everything appeared peaceful and silent .
After an unknown period of time, Klein suddenly jolted awake as he stretched his neck .
As he kept Death Knell on him, he had drank plenty of water . His bladder had woken him up .
Pulling away his blanket and unbuckling his seatbelt, Klein covered his mouth and yawned . He walked out of the lounge and headed for the washroom at the corner of the hall .
After relieving himself, he washed his hand and left the washroom . When he entered the hall, he suddenly saw a figure .
The figure was standing amidst the shadows . It was wearing a black robe, and by its eyes were eyeshadow and blush . At a glance, it looked like a shadow or ghost that had floated out of a corpse .
Ma’am Daly… Klein obviously recognized her as he immediately reacted as though he jumped in fright .
Daly walked a few steps forward and looked up at Dwayne Dantès’s face . She paused her gaze in between his eyes as she curled her mouth into a smile .
“Your eyes and bearing resembles a friend of mine, especially the eyes . ”
Klein immediately feigned enlightenment as he said with a smile, “Ma’am, if our genders were swapped, that would be a standard way of hitting on someone . ”
Daly’s eyes didn’t move away as she chortled .
“There’s no need for any swapping . A difference in genders doesn’t change the definition of such actions .
“If this were any other time, I really would be trying to trick you into a bed if I had said something like that, even tricking you all the way down the aisle .
“However, I have no such thoughts at the moment . I came over because yours eyes really remind me of him . ”
It’s really quite overwhelming speaking with Ma’am Daly… I can’t let her lead the conversation; otherwise, she might realize that Dwayne Dantès isn’t the casanova that has a wide preference or a romance expert . Instead, he’s nothing but an inexperienced man in front of charming women… I have to take the lead in this conversation… Klein’s mind stirred as he directly asked in a half-joking manner, “Ma’am, do you like that friend of yours?”
Daly was taken aback for a second before she pricked her brows, lowered her head, and smiled .
“That’s not something that needs hiding .
“If only he could be like you, being willing to take the initiative when facing a woman, proficient at creating a suggestive atmosphere, perhaps if that were the case, we might already have children .
“Unfortunately, he’s a conservative man . When he chats with me, all he spoke off was matters regarding work or his experiences . Any hints given to him or any joke that went overboard just made him appear uncomfortable . He often found excuses to leave . He looked old, and he didn’t look after his hair . He also had a bad memory . He even forgot my birthday . Whenever I thought of him, I got mad, having the urge to push him down into bed, tying his arms to the bed’s railing…”
Klein looked at Daly’s head with a gloomy gaze as he sighed to interrupt her .
“Ma’am, you’ve said too much . ”
Daly looked up, speaking with a smile in no way different than before .
“I thought you would enjoy talking about matters about this at a deeper level . ”
Klein let out a soft chuckle .
“Then why didn’t you turn those thoughts into action? I can tell that you aren’t just a woman who can only talk . ”
Daly scoffed .
“Guess . ”
Following that, she nodded .
“Thank you for not saying that I’ve been harassing you . ”
As she spoke, she turned around and headed for the extensive lounge where the Red Gloves were . The corners of Klein’s mouth curled up slightly as he returned to his room, shaking his head .
When she came to the entrance of the extensive lounge, Daly, whose eyes landed on the floorboards, suddenly saw an untied shoelace .
She shifted her gaze up as her eyes reflected the black-haired, green-eyed Leonard Mitchell .
Leonard glanced at Dwayne Dantès as he entered his lounge and said with a suppressed voice, “He has plenty of secrets . He’s not a simple person . ”
Daly chuckled and nodded .
“I know . ”
Having said that, she briskly walked past Leonard Mitchell and walked into the extensive lounge .
When she covered a few meters, she slowed down her pace and once again lowered her head .
Leonard remained standing at the door, watching the long dragged out shadows that were cast from the lights outside . Slowly and silently, he exhaled .
Inside the small lounge, Klein stood by the door, raising his right hand and rubbing his temples . He stood there like a statue .
In the Berg household in the City of Silver .
Derrick sat on a stool, munching on bread that was made from Black-Faced Grass powder as he seriously listed down the matters that he had yet to complete in recent times .
I haven’t obtained the information of the Bizarro Bane that Mr . World needs… I still lack the points required for the Sequence 5 Vampire Beyonder characteristic… I only have three friends . That’s not enough… All the clues I have regarding the former Chief’s mausoleum aren’t much…
As the thoughts flashed through his mind, Derrick filled his stomach and took off his shirt . Holding an open container that had been ground from stone, he used the sticky black liquid inside to smear on the obvious bruises on his body .
Although the City of Silver only had edible Black-Faced Grass in its vicinity, it didn’t only have one type of plant . They were many kinds of plants, all of them being strange . By using different powers, they could grow and proliferate in the dark, sun-lacking environment that only had lightning . One of the traditions of the City of Silver was to select different plants and mix them with organs of monsters to create various kinds of ointments . They were especially effective when treating most injuries and illnesses . It prevented the residents from dying just because of a trivial problem .
They were simplified versions of the magical medicine, holy ointment, and essential oil formulas that generations of Demon Hunters obtained from their potions . These low-level products thus became a tradition!
Just after Derrick applied the ointment and took a whiff of the pungent smell before putting on his clothes, he suddenly heard knocking at the door .
His mind tensed up instinctively as he held up Thunder God’s Roar, the dark blue hammer that had electric sparks swirling around it . He carefully approached the door, prepared to kill any monsters that suddenly emerged from the darkness .
“Who is it?” Derrick asked in a deep voice .
A gruff voice sounded from the outside:
“Valer . ”
At the same time, bright light beamed its way through the door cracks and windows . That was the power of a Dawn Paladin .
Derrick relaxed as he opened the door and greeted, “Valer, aren’t you leading a patrol team today?”
Valer stood 2 . 2 meters tall and was recently befriended by Derrick . Derrick was also most impressed with him because Valer was able to rein in his powers to a great extent and was a person who took very good care of his companions .
In addition, his patrol team’s recent patrol area included the former Chief’s mausoleum .
Valer had brownish-yellow hair that resembled Derrick’s and a thick beard . His favorite pastime was fighting with others . Upon hearing that, he said with a smile, “The six-member council has just ordered our team to skip the area of the former Chief’s mausoleum . And this area is the last spot for our patrol mission .
“Let’s go to the training field . Let’s get some exercise!”
The six-member council has specially ordered the patrolling teams to skip that area? They plan to open the former Chief’s entrance today? I wonder what will happen… I hope there’s no sinister plot on Elder Lovia’s side… Derrick was alarmed as he hurriedly built connections, but he was at a loss .
Just as he hesitantly wore his clothes in preparation to join Valer at the training field, a shadow grew out from the dark ends of the street and said, “Derrick Berg, the Chief has requested you visit him at the spire . ”
