Chapter 302 – It’s Hard to Be an Honest Person (2/2)

Hebrew kicked off the ground and shot his body towards Lin Xiao like a bullet. His fist lead the way like he wanted to pierce a hole through Lin Xiao’s body!

“Hebrew, do you still remember about elemental relationships?”

“What?”

Hebrew heard him ask something strange.

“If ice magic was used to drastically lower the temperature and then fire magic was used, what do you think will happen?”

“…”

When Hebrew saw his crafty gaze, he suddenly realized the danger and wanted to escape!

But it was too late.

Snap.

Another clear snapping sound, but to Hebrew, it was like the grim reaper.

Instantly, a fire started, and a terrifying dragon’s roar came from within!

When he heard that, Lin Tian face became deathly pale. He stared at the huge dragon that was born from the fire and managed to squeeze out a few words.

“Advanced sixth-level magic, dragon’s fury!?”

Under Lin Xiao’s control, a huge dragon head crawled out from another dimension and opened its mouth, and bit down on Hebrew’s body!

“Aaaaaaaahhh!!!”

From the shock in the difference of temperatures, from first ice code to flaming hot, Hebrew’s body was severely burned. His skin started peeling off and his clothes also began burning to ash.

The fire began revolving around and all the steam lingering in the air was swallowed by the dragon and in the blink of an eyes, no more water vapor remained, the only thing left was the dragon’s fury!

Roooooaaar!!!

The dragon roared again and the illusory dragon head suddenly exploded, sending Hebrew, who was caught between its maws, flying out like a sandbag. He fell onto the ground with a plop, his clothes tattered and body swollen, he tried struggling like a turtle trying to turn itself over. After struggling for a while, he finally resigned himself to a series of painful groans and stopped moving.

“Damn… damn it…”

Hebrew cursed, but he still couldn’t change his wretched outcome.

Only now, Hebrew realized that even if it was the sixth-level magic dragon’s fury, that youth still hasn’t shown his true strength. If he got serious, then not just the illusory dragon head, he could probably even summon the genuine inferno dragon into this realm!

If that was the case, he would have been dead long ago, but…

“Damn, you naive fools, you stinking brats, who do you think you are? Do you think you’ll be heroes just because you become investigators?”

Hebrew, aware of his end, pointlessly struggled and vented pointlessly.

“Demons and the like, who the hell cares? Isn’t it fine to live comfortably? Even if you become investigators and kill enemy after enemy and destroy the demons, what’s the point?”

While speaking, Hebrew spat out some blood and almost choked, but he still muttered on.

“How could being a hero be as good as being rich!?”

“The alliance spends so much money on you guys every year, it’s not worth it… rather than you heroes who’ll die sooner or later, why not just give it to me so I can live comfortably!”

Although he said that, when he remembered about all the money he embezzled that he hasn’t spent much of yet, it was too late to regret.

“Lin Xiao… young investigators like you guys will die sooner or later, so give up, you can’t become heroes!”

“Uh, I say uncle… it seems like you’re misunderstanding something, I never said I wanted to be a hero.”

Lin Xiao walked next to Hebrew, crouched down and leaned over, and calmly started chatting with him.

“Y-you don’t want to be a hero? Then why are you becoming an investigator? And why… are you going against the demons?”

“No, I’m not going against them, I’m helping them.”

Lin Xiao awkwardly pursed his lips and spoke in a volume so that no one else could hear.

“Honestly, you’re right… I don’t want to be a hero, how could being a hero be as good as being rich? But I came here to help her?”

“Her?”

Following Lin Xiao’s gaze, Hebrew saw that indifferent silver-haired red-eyed beauty.

This brat was playing with him, right!

“Puh!”

Hebrew burned with anger and he spat out a large mouthful of blood before his eyes shut and he went limp.

“Uh… strange, why don’t you believe me when I’m telling you the truth?”

Lin Xiao blinked a couple of times before helplessly sighing.

It’s really hard to be an honest person these days…
