Chapter 73: Pervert, what have you done to me?
Around midnight, Han Shuo and Phoebe had just left when Grover brought a pack of Boozt Merchant Guild guards and barged into the room.
“Who did it, who did it? I’ve spent so many gold coins to keep you guys in vain. Not a single one of you discovered that an assassin had snuck in. If the target was me, then it likely wouldn’t be those two on the ground.” Grover immediately started bawling furiously upon entering the room, yelling at the people behind him.
“Mister Grover, this assassin was very proficient. He managed to avoid my windwall and assassinated both Darnell and Yuna in such a short amount of time. This proves that the killer’s strength is absolutely beyond our imagination.” A mage with long hair and a somewhat ugly expression said to Grover after observing for a while.
Exhaling lightly, Grover looked at the long-haired mage and said in an apologetic tone, “My apologies Ellis, I was a bit out of line.”
The wind mage Ellis was still expressionless, and looked at the dead Darnell’s left hand with some surprise. He went, “Eh?” And walked up to the body, noticing that the left hand was missing a finger. Ellis asked, perplexed, “The left middle finger, on which Darnell wears his space ring, has been chopped off. What’s going on?”
“Not only Darnell, but Yuna as well. Could it be that this killer killed them because he wanted to rob them?” Grover was also a bit confused and asked after hearing Ellis’ words.
“Impossible.” Ellis denied decisively and looked around the surroundings, explaining. “If the assassins wished to kill them for the sole purpose of robbing them, then he never would’ve picked these two, because the two of them together are the most difficult to fight against. Not to mention there are many valuable items within the Guild. If he only wanted valuables, he wouldn’t have needed to do anything to them. With the abilities demonstrated by the killer, he absolutely could have obtained more from the Guild without making a single sound.”
Grover thought for a bit after his words and nodded. He said with a darkened face, “If he wasn’t in it to murder for gain, then it must have been thanks to my dear niece Phoebe. It seems like she finally couldn’t bear it longer after enduring things for so long.”
“Indeed, Phoebe must be behind this. Darnell and Yuna both tried to assassinate Phoebe once. Although they retreated when they didn’t succeed, I feel that Phoebe must know that it was the two of them.
After all, Darnell’s gaze towards Phoebe was simply too lecherous and unique. Even I, an outsider, could tell. As the one involved, Phoebe must have had an even better understanding of things. The fact that we’re fine, and they’re the only ones who have died is enough to explain things. Except, it seems that the killer is a bit greedy. Otherwise he wouldn’t have remembered to take their space rings in such dangerous circumstances. When did such a character appear beside Phoebe?” Ellis furrowed his brow and said slowly while turning things over in his mind.
Grover started and mused deeply for a while. His face suddenly darkened and he said coldly, “I know who. It must be that “Bryan” who killed those three assassins from ‘Shadow Ghost’ a while back. I heard the guards say that this person came to do some business with Fabian and thus needed some money. Since his strength is enough to kill three of the senior swordsmen sent by ‘Shadow Ghost’, then he would have the strength to kill Darnell and Yuna.
Damnit, how did Phoebe get her hands on this kid. I don’t know where Phoebe’s hidden him. He hasn’t appeared by Phoebe’s side since he left the Guild last time. I’ve sent people to surveil where he is, but have still been unable to find traces of him. This will be quite difficult.”
Nodding, Ellis concluded. “Looks like it is him. I think we should get rid of this person first at all costs. Otherwise we may be killed by him in due time.”
“Alright, pass my orders on, not to kill Phoebe for now. Put forth all effort into finding this person. He’s ruined my plans twice, and I’m going to make his existence a living hell.” Grover’s face was sinister as he spoke coldly.
At this moment, Han Shuo, deeply hated by Grover, had already brought Phoebe far away from the Boozt Merchant Guild and was rushing towards Phoebe’s quarters in the northern part of the city.
Something was odd with Phoebe, as she seemed a bit out of it. Her body was sluggish and hot to the touch. Han Shuo was dragging her in his haste to cover distance. The two of them were dressed in nightwalker clothes and chose to thread through small alleyways in the dark of the night, staying completely out of sight.
But as they neared the northern part of the city, the city guards started appearing more frequently, forcing Han Shuo to continuously hide and evade. Phoebe had still known to make good time when dragged behind Han Shuo, but at this moment, her steps started to drag as her body grew hotter and hotter.
With no alternatives, Han Shuo flung Phoebe onto his back, completely disregarding whether or not she agreed. In order to avoid the attention of the city guard, Han Shuo temporarily gave up his idea to send Phoebe back to her quarters and took her to the cemetery behind the Babylon Academy of School and Magic instead.
It was the quietest place he knew, and no one patrolled there. Add to that, Han Shuo was exceedingly familiar with the area, and that was why this was the first place he thought of in a time of crisis like this.
When Han Shuo had circled past the northern part of the city with Phoebe on his back and made it past some narrow roads into a forest patch, he suddenly felt that Phoebe, on his back, was tearing at her own clothes and her two hands were roving unconsciously over Han Shuo’s body.
Astonished, Han Shuo’s body suddenly stopped. After relaxing, Han Shuo could clearly feel the well rounded mounds in front of Phoebe’s chest pressed against his back, the wondrous sensation of them closely mashed against his well defined back. A blaze of fire suddenly ignited from his chest, uncontrollable like the sparks of a fire. Add to that Phoebe’s restless hands were still unconsciously moving all over Han Shuo’s chest, and it finally grew so stimulating, that Han Shuo could no longer control himself.
He swung Phoebe down from his back and suddenly held her marvelous body in his hands. He thrust Phoebe’s body onto a tree nearby, and Han Shuo’s two hands moved in tandem, kneading the forbidden areas of Phoebe’s body.
Even with the nightwalker clothes separating them, Han Shuo could see feel the wondrous curves of Phoebe’s bodies. Her well-rounded chest kept changing shape beneath Han Shuo’s ministrations and when his hand roamed over Phoebe’s slender legs and pert bottom, the amazing, strong stimulus attacked Han Shuo’s senses, making him want to experience it even deeper.
Phoebe had yanked her own face mask off, and at this moment her eyes were glassy, filled with the tempting lure of desire. Her stunningly beautiful face burned to the touch and brought with it a heart leaping beauty. The faint fragrance emitted by the breaths between her open mouth made Han Shuo’s heart caper like a monkey and mind gallop like a horse. He was about to lose himself in it entirely.
Han Shuo’s right hand tore off a piece of Phoebe’s nightwalker outfit near the chest. The snow white expanse of her breasts immediately blossomed in front of Han Shuo’s eyes, along with a dot of pinkish red.
Han Shuo finally couldn’t contain himself and he lost control of the strength in his right hand.
