Vol 3 Chapter 3 (1/2)
Sorcerous Stabber Orphen Rogue Journey Book 03 - Spectre, Sleeping on My Chest - Chapter 3 - Stupid RumoursChapter 3 – Stupid RumoursOrphen felt desperate——the is what he felt like as he patrolled the nition, wax from the candlestick was all over the floor, the iron that held the bed together was bent, a burning smell came from the wallpaper, and Vulcan had kicked in the door The compensation that would have to be payed would be extraordinary, he didn’t want to know the exact as to deal with, even if he wanted to leave, he had a plan ready
The day after, Orphen was brought to the local Police for interrogation“What a disaster Ahem, how much compensation can you pay?”
“Ah?”
Orphen was confused Because he knew the amount would be extraordinary,
(He asked me how much? Does he even know if I can pay?)
Orphen was surprised, he then tried to talk as calmly as he could
“Well, I’ What was it priced on the market?”
“Market…price?”
The old white haired officer slightlya brown vest, and had the face of a kind old er, a large wide brim hat sat on top The only furniture was a small wooden table, the man put his old thin elbows on the table, his lacklustre eyes staring at Orphen
“Three years ago, a wohost”
Orphen crossed his arht——
(That orosu……)
This whole ordeal requires a detailed investigation But who should he ask?
After what happened last night, there was an official investigation into the disturbance Knowing this, Orphen wondered if they would dig up any worth information
Exiting the police station, he saw Majic squatting on the side of the road, he looked very happy to see him
“Master!”
Orphen waved as he ran towards his student
“I told you to wait at the hotel Did so happen?”
“No, it’s just——“
Majic’s eyes blinked with hesitation
“We……simply can’t stay there”
“…………?”
Majic sighed
“While you were away, that person called Hirietta went to get so to eat in the hotel……and then——”
“What happened?”
“Cleo was there, she was sitting at a table I don’t know if they said anything, but both of the at each other”
“This is just great”
Orphen and Majic sihedLast night in the hotel, it was extraordinarily quiet After what happened, they had boarded up the brokenand ood Other than that, it was the same as the day before
The entrance of the hotels eating area was pushed open, the air was quiet and cold In the middle of the room was a table, Hirietta with her full body leather outfit was staring into Cleo’s eyes She looked angry, so did Cleo, but oddly her cheeks looked a little swollen She earing a shi+rt, the buttons were out of place, there was a knocked over chair lying on the floor——if Orphen didn’t know any better, they had a catfight
After Orphen opened the door, Hirietta gently smiled As for Cleo, her body didn’ther injury
“I want to——”Just as Orphen spoke, Cleo kicked the foot of her chair and knocked it over as she stood up Her face contorted as she angrily shouted at him
“Idiot!”
She then turned to head upstairs Orphen watched her every move, until she disappeared from his view Behind him, Majic quietly said:“I’ve never seen her so angry Have you, Master?”
“Oh, really?”
Hirietta spoke——as she touched a black scabbard beside her right leg
“What do you mean by that?”
Orphen said, as he slowly approached the table
Hirietta didn’t look at him
“I think that kid has the right to know You still haven’t told her the truth, right?”
Orphen picked up the chair Cleo kicked over, he then sat down Hirietta went on to say:
“I told her, that I was a professional anti-sorcerer assassin, and that I was hired to kill you You should have seen the look on her face”
When Majic heard those words, he took a few steps backward, bu into a table behind him
“One thing lead to another and I hit her, you’re lucky that’s all I did”
“You shouldn’t have done that, it was my call to make”
Orphen said, Hirietta sihed
“How can a first-class black sorcerer be worried about a little girl, it’s very unbeco of one such as yourself”
Orphen then looked over to Majic
“Go upstairs Tell her not to worry”
Immediately, Majic raised his hand and said:
“B-But Master, I can’t do that!”
“I’ll owe you one”
Orphen winked at him, and said:
“It’s far too dangerous for her to be left alone, that spirit that attacked last night could come back”
“……She’s still upset, I don’t know if I’ll be able to calm her down”
Majic whined, as he went upstairs Orphen and Hirietta went into the kitchen, since it was , the fires weren’t lit, and it was a little dark
“I just want to ask you one thing”
“What is it?”
Orphen said, as he leaned backwards
“Are you an enemy……or friend?”
“Can’t you distinguish from friend and foe?”
She jokingly said
“Okay, I’ainst you, I’ll provide you the necessary information”
“Well then, out with it”
“You’re really impatient Don’t you want to talk some more?”
“No”
“What’s wrong, didn’t you enjoy that passionate kiss yesterday?”
“Enough flirting Let’s get down to business”
Hirietta put her elbon on an old mottled table
“Alright……I hope you’re still willing to meet my client”
“How do I know I can trust you?”
“Fine If you don’t trust et about it”
Listening to her, Orphen wanted to say so When he looked at her, he thought of the na Hirietta, he had heard all kinds of rumours about her, he didn’t knohat to believe
“By the way, you should know this abouttime, and I was the one who killed hie”
“He’s such an idiot!”
In the back roo, she took a pillow from the bed, threw it into the air, and kicked it The room was unlike any other, mostly because it had no wallpaper and it was a mess
