Chapter 24 Returning To Broken Cliff Mountain Range
“I’m finally out. I’ve gained a lot in this one month.”
Roger walked out of the gradually sparse forest while sighing about his encounters in Broken Cliff Mountain Range.
While listening to the constant shouts and solicitations from the gathering place, Roger’s face revealed a happy expression.
After looking around the base, his eyes locked onto a noodle restaurant.
Roger, who had been eating salt roasted meat for a month, wanted to eat something else.
Immediately after, he walked into the noodle restaurant and shouted to the chef,
“Master, a big bowl of noodles.”
After the chef heard this, he said without
turning his head,
“Alright, please wait a moment, Sir.”
A few minutes after Roger sat down, the noodles were served.
After eating three big bowls, Roger patted his belly with satisfaction. He threw a silver coin on the table and prepared to go home to wash up.
After all, no matter how useful the cleaning spell was, it was not as comfortable as taking a bath.
The chef saw the silver coin that Roger had left behind and hurriedly called Roger to get the change. However, Roger didn’t look back. After waving his hand, he rushed back home. After Roger walked out of the gathering place, two or three people immediately followed him. When Roger returned to cliff town, one of the people who followed Roger immediately left the team.
Roger had already sensed that someone was following him when he was at the gathering place, but he didn’t pay attention to the person.
After all, the people following him were just small shrimps. He didn’t want to hit small shrimps only to have a big fish avenging them, followed by a shark avenging the big fish.
If he had to, he would kill them all at once. He was not that ruthless. He did not have the time to play with these people. If he had the time to make some money, wouldn’t it be far more productive?
He quickly shook off his stalker. The stalker returned to a beautiful house. He was
kneeling in front of a pavilion and reporting the situation.
“Second Miss, the person you asked us to
keep an eye on has returned from the Broken
Cliff Mountain Range.
When I saw him, he had already entered the
town, so he should be home by now.”
“I know, you may leave.”
“Yes, Second Miss.”
After the stalker finished speaking, he turned
around and quickly left the pavilion.
There were three people sitting in the pavilion. One of them was Kasri, whom Roger
had saved in Broken Cliff Mountain Range.
The other two were Lan Bingling and Huo Li ‘er, who had entered Broken Cliff Mountain Range together with Kasri.
However, both Kasri and Huo Li ‘er looked pale. Both of them had suffered from the side effects of using their forbidden techniques. Their lives were not in danger, but they were currently weaker than ordinary humans.
“Sister Kasri, we’ve had people out there waiting for a few days. We’ve finally found
that person.
Let’s go find him now.”
After Kasri dragged her weak body out with
Lan Bingling and Huo Li ‘er, she immediately sent people to Broken Cliff Mountain Range. She placed a few people at each exit and asked them to report to her immediately after Roger
came out.
As for Roger’s house, it had already been located by Kasri.
After all, Roger had lived there for 18 years.
With the resources of her Thunderbolt Chamber of Commerce, it took less than a day for them to find Roger’s home.
“Huo Li ‘er, don’t be so rash. The other party
is our savior who saved us from our misery. When you see him, be careful of what you say.”
“I know, Sister Kasri, let’s go.’
As soon as Huo Li ‘er finished speaking, she walked towards the main gate of the house.
Looking at Huo Li ‘er, who seemed to be much more relieved after breaking away from her family’s engagement, a smile that came from the bottom of their hearts appeared on Kasri and Lan Bingling’s faces after they exchanged
a glance.
After Roger returned home, he sensed that the
people following him had stopped not far from his house. He ignored them.
After stepping into the Dark Moon magical
array at home, he poured the well water from a wooden bucket into the bath barrel. After
heating it up with fire magical power, he took
off his clothes and laid down in it with great enjoyment.
Half an hour later, the three of them arrived outside Roger’s house.
The person who had been following the
Roger’s family saw the three of them and quickly walked up to them.
“Second Miss, Miss Lan, Miss Huo, Roger
hasn’t come out since he entered the house.”
“Alright, I know. You can go back now.”
After Kasri heard that Roger had returned home, she asked the people who followed Roger to return to the Chamber of Commerce. She wanted to visit Roger with Lan Bingling
and Huo Li ‘er to give him gifts of gratitude. Huo Li ‘er, who had a carefree personality, walked to Roger’s door and started to knock. “Roger, are you home?”
However, the Dark Moon magical array that Roger had set up had a sound-proof effect. Therefore, before Roger left the magic array, he would not be able to hear Huo Li ‘er, even
if she shouted until her throat was hoarse. Huo Li ‘er had called out a few times, but
seeing that Roger did not respond, she prepared to knock on the door.
Kasri immediately stretched out her hand to stop her.
“Huo Li ‘er, don’t knock anymore.
time.
It seems that we came at the wrong Roger has been alone in the Broken Cliff
Mountain Range for almost a month. He should be very tired.
Let’s not disturb the other party’s rest for now, and come back tomorrow.”
When Huo Li ‘er heard Kasri’s advice, she looked like a deflated leather ball.
“Alright, we were indeed too anxious. We’ll come back tomorrow.”
Kasri looked at Huo Li ‘er’s dejected expression and said to her,
“Huo Li ‘er, it’s been so many days since you
returned from Broken Cliff Mountain Range. You’ve been recuperating in the house all this time, aren’t aren’t you bored?”
When Huo Li ‘er heard Kasri’s question, she immediately replied,
“I can only wander around the house every
day. Of course, it’s boring.”
Huo Li ‘er’s reply caused a smile to appear on Kasri’s face. She then said to her, “Do you want to go to the Commercial Street
in the town center?”
Kasri’s question made the originally dejected Huo Li ‘er perk up with energy. She said to Kasri,
“Yes, of course I want to go. Are we going?” After Kasri smiled, she said to Huo Li ‘er,
“Seeing that you’ve been staying in the house and recuperating these past few days, I’ve decided to bring you and Lan Bingling to the town center’s Commercial Street for a stroll and have a good day of fun.”
Kasri’s reply made Huo Li ‘er’s happiness soar. She was never a law-abiding person. If it was not for the fact that her body was really
weak these few days, she would have gone to the town center alone to celebrate the cancellation of the engagement. “Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go!”
With that, Huo Li ‘er was filled with joy as she skipped and hopped towards the Commercial Street in the town center.
As for Lan Bingling and Kasri, when they saw
the overjoyed Huo Li ‘er, their faces were also filled with glee. They quickly walked to her side and headed towards the Commercial
Street in the town center.
