Maybe Liang Suyin was listening to his words this afternoon, albeit still looked down but she spent her time with Delia more for the rest of the afternoon until night.

Since everyone noticed that Suyin's mood was improving, the other girls let her have Tang Shaoyang alone tonight.

Tang Shaoyang looked at the naked Suyin, she was sleeping soundly on the bed. There was a bit of a smile on her sleeping face, it was a good sign. He kissed her forehead and walked out of the house.

Everyone had fallen asleep, he tried to not make noise afraid that he would wake them out. He went outside and immediately gazed to the north.

He was tempted to fight the beastmen he met in the afternoon but he controlled himself. It had become his routine to patrol in the night, just in case something dangerous approached the village.

There was a distance between his house and the villagers' houses. His house was located more toward the north. That was his request so he could watch the village where the dangers would likely come.

”You don't sleep?” When he was about to jump off the roof, a voice rang. He turned around, Arina was standing at the door with her blue nightdress.

”I figured that I will do night watch after our encounter with the beastmen,” instead of jumping to the roof, he walked out of the village to the north. Of course, his [Spirit Eyes] was activated to scan the distance.

Arina did not go back inside, but she followed the man out of the village with her nightdress, ”You should sleep.”

She heard the man speak to him but she did not heed his words as she kept following him, ”I can't sleep,” Arina replied after a while.

”Have you heard about what happened to Deril and Murie?” Since the girl insisted to follow him, Tang Shaoyang let her be.

”Shouldn't you tell me what happened to them?” She replied with a question.

”They are dead, apparently the City Lord is crazy enough to kill those two to frame me. That's the confusing part, why would he kill your party to frame me? If he wants to catch, then just send his knight, why does he need a justification, he's a lord of the city,” Tang Shaoyang muttered in a low voice. He then heard Arina stop her steps.

He looked back, the girl froze on the spot, and her body was trembling. Not long after that, he heads a sob, ”Y-you promised me to not kill them!”

”I did not kill them, but the Waskin City Lord did. Do you hear me? It's the city lord who killed your friends to frame me,” Tang Shaoyang tried to explain that he had nothing to do with Deril and Murie's death.

—At this time, you should be comforting her not explaining what happened. Comforting her for now and telling her the truth later after she calms down.

Zowen let out a sigh in his head while guiding Tang Shaoyang.
