If I wasn’t foolish, why would I fall in love with you?” Nisse had an innocent, puzzled look on her face.
“Oh!” Irritated, Bebe slapped his head. Why was it that he could never overcome Nisse in these debates?
The nearby Linley and the other two, hearing this exchange, couldn’t help but begin to laugh.
Bebe turned his head, looking at Linley in surprise. “Boss.”
“Heh heh, you keep chatting. We’ll sit over here.” Linley laughed as he spoke. All of the tables here were fairly small, circular tables. They could sit three people. Even four people would find it to be rather crowded.
Linley, Delia, and Salomon sat down in a corner of the hall.
“Linley, Bebe really is rather adorable.” Salomon laughed. And then, he paused for a long moment, as though considering something. Suddenly, he stretched out his Godrealm, covering Linley and Delia within the reach of his Godrealm.
“Huh?” Linley and Delia looked at Salomon, puzzled.
Salomon laughed, “Delia, Linley, there’s something I want to tell you. However, I can’t let others hear this. Thus…I am completely shutting out the sound.”
Linley and Delia looked towards Salomon in astonishment. What was there to be so secretive about?
“There are very few people who know this rumor. However, over these six years, my little sister and your little brother, Bebe, have become quite close to each other. And so, I’m going to tell you this rumor.” Salomon’s face grew very solemn.
“Rumor?” Linley and Delia were both puzzled.
Salomon said slowly, “Do you know where this escort mission started off from?”
“Started off from?” Linley frowned. “Wasn’t it in Royalwing City?”
“No.” Salomon shook his head. “Based on what I have heard, the escort mission started off in the distant Peakstone Prefecture!”
“Peakstone Prefecture?” Linley was greatly shocked.
Peakstone Prefecture was a prefecture in the west part of the Redbud Continent, while Nightblaze Prefecture was in the center of the Redbud Continent. As for the Rainbow Prefecture, it was in the east part of the Redbud Continent.
“Right.” Salomon said solemnly. “According to rumor, on the way over, the escorts suffered an enemy attack on the way over, and virtually all the Fiends died. Only a few were left. Therefore, the employer hired another group of Fiends in our Royalwing City.”
Linley and Delia were both shocked.
“You knew this, but you still came?” Linley immediately discovered a problem in this.
“First of all, it is only a rumor.” Salomon immediately laughed bitterly as he spoke. “And second of all, I only heard this rumor half a year ago.”
Linley immediately came to the conclusion; everyone had headed out six years ago. Since Salomon had heard it only half a year ago, then it seemed he had heard this from others in the metallic lifeform.
“This is just a rumor.” Linley said.
Salomon shook his head, lowering his voice. “Don’t disbelieve it. Think about it. Why would they have us gather in the restaurant and be afraid to let us openly and publicly gather at the main gates? We waited until nightfall, then quickly and stealthily slipped into the metallic lifeform. Before we even had a chance to get our footing, the metallic lifeform immediately began to move.”
Hearing this, Linley began to think that it made sense.
“Therefore, it’s best to be cautious.” Salomon said softly. “If we really run into any danger, those enemies won’t be too vicious to us. We can immediately scatter and flee. Saving our lives matters the most. The failure of the mission just means that we won’t get compensation.”
Linley and Delia both nodded slightly.
And then, Salomon released his Godrealm. The two began to casually chat and drink.
Suddenly…
A divine sense swept across the entire metallic creature! Linley and Delia didn’t notice it at all. Only, Salomon’s face changed dramatically, and he let out a low growl, “A divine sense scan?”
“Divine sense scan?” Linley was shocked as well.
