Chapter 25 - Visiting Roger

Chapter 25 Visiting Roger

The morning sun shone through the window and landed on the ground. The chirping of birds woke Roger up from his sleep.

After waking up, Roger washed his face with the cold well water and went to the kitchen to make a simple breakfast. Then, he removed the Dark Moon magic array that covered the house and sat on the stone table and chair, enjoying the morning sun and the delicious breakfast.

Just as Roger was enjoying his breakfast, the people sent by Kasri to observe Roger immediately ran back to Kasri’s house to

report the situation after seeing Roger come out.

As for the three of them, after knowing that Roger had woken up, they immediately set off for Roger’s house.

Ten minutes later, the three of them arrived outside Roger’s house and politely knocked on the door.

“Brother Roger, are you home?”

After cleaning up the dishes, Roger, who was sunbathing on the recliner in the courtyard, sensed that the people knocking on the door were the three beautiful women he had briefly seen before entering the Broken Cliff

Mountain range. He opened his mouth and let them in.

The three people who had obtained Roger’s approval immediately pushed open the courtyard door and walked in front of Roger.

After Kasri walked to Roger, she bowed and respectfully said,

“Brother Roger, you already know my

identity. Let me introduce the two people

beside me.

Lan Bingling was one of the successors of the three major medicinal merchants, the Ice Medicine Company.

Huo Li ‘er was the second daughter of Count Jinyang, one of the top ten counts in the Empire.

I’m here to thank you for saving my life. If it weren’t for you, I’d probably be dead in the mouth of the giant crocodile.”

Roger looked at Kasri’s currently glamorous appearance and compared it to the girl he had saved when he was hunting the giant barren crocodile a few days ago. He then said,

“You’re welcome. I was just doing it in passing. If you weren’t so lucky that I found you being chased by a third-rank savage beast, and I didn’t need its beast core, you would have been digested by the giant

crocodile by now.

Roger’s reply was so straightforward that

even Kasri, who had always been calm and

steady, couldn’t handle it.

However, due to the purpose of this trip, Kasri still forcefully changed the topic. She said to

Roger,

“Brother Roger, to thank you for saving me, we will give you one million gold coins, a shop on a busy road in the Imperial Capital, and a house on the outskirts of the Imperial Capital as thanks. I hope you can accept our sincerity.”

Then, Kasri placed two deeds and a bank note worth one million gold coins on the stone

table in front of Roger.

Roger looked at the things on the table, but he

wasn’t moved at all. Although he didn’t have much money for the time being, he would have countless wealth sooner or later, by relying on the inheritance of the Arcane

World.

After hearing the self-introductions of the three people, he found it all very troublesome. According to the plot of those novels, these

people would only lead to more and more

trouble

Roger didn’t want to have anything to do with the three of them.

That was why Roger spoke bluntly, trying to

make the three of them back off.

“No need, I don’t want these. You can take

them back.

I just did it in passing. I wanted a third-rank

beast core, so I helped you kill the giant crocodile.

You don’t have to do this, take it back.”

When Kasri saw that Roger didn’t want it, she thought that it was too little, so she quickly

said,

“Brother Roger, this is all we have now. If you

think it’s not enough, we’ll collect more when

we get back to the capital and send it back to you.”

Roger deliberately showed an impatient look and said to the three,

“I don’t want your gift, don’t you understand?

If there’s nothing else, please go back. I still

have something to do later.”

When Huo Li ‘er saw the impatience on

Roger’s face, a fire was instantly ignited in

her heart. She took a step forward and said to

Roger,

“How can you be like this?

We’re only here to repay you for saving our

lives, not to do anything to you. How can you be so rude?”

When Kasri saw Roger’s impatient expression

and the disdain in his eyes when he glanced at the things on the table, she knew that she had made a mistake.

It wasn’t that Roger disliked the lack of gifts,

but he really wasn’t interested and looked down on what she had given him.

After hearing Huo Li ‘er’s words, Roger immediately replied,

“I already said that there’s no need for it, but

you guys keep trying to push it to me. Now, you’re saying that I’m rude.

Such long hair but such short insight, such big breasts but such a small brain.”

As soon as Roger finished speaking, Huo Li ‘er

blew up like a pot of boiling water. She was so angry that white smoke was coming out of her head.

“Who are you calling big-breasted and brainless!”

After looking at the furious Huo Li ‘er, Roger

said with a hint of mockery,

“I’m sorry, I was wrong. You’re a brainless woman with small

breasts.”

It wasn’t that Huo Li ‘er didn’t have any

breasts, but compared to Kasri and Lan

Bingling, her breasts were indeed on the smaller side.

Faced with Roger’s slightly mocking words, Huo Li ‘er was instantly driven mad. She immediately circulated the Golden Sun

Breathing Technique and attacked Roger with her fangs and claws.

In the face of Huo Li ‘er’s attack, Roger remained unperturbed. He did not even get up. He just sat up straight and used one hand

to grab Huo Li’ er’s attacking hands. When the originally furious Huo Li ‘er circulated the Golden Sun Breathing Technique with all her might to attack Roger,

Lan Bingling and Kasri had immediately wanted to stop her. However, Kasri was still suffering from her

backlash, so how could she possibly keep up with Huo Li ‘er’s speed? Lan Bingling was originally standing at the

edge, quietly watching Kasri handle this

matter. She had not expected Roger’s mouth to be so vicious.

What she did not expect was that Huo Li ‘er would suddenly make a move. Therefore, by the time Lan Bingling reacted,

Huo Li ‘er’s attack had already been received by Roger. Furthermore, Roger was controlling both of her arms with one hand and placing them on the ground.

When Kasri saw that Huo Li ‘er was subdued

by Roger with one move, she instantly reacted and said to Roger,

“Brother Roger, Huo Li ‘er didn’t do it on purpose. Please forgive her.”

As she apologized to Roger, she quickly

walked to Huo Li ‘er’s side and pulled her up.

After pulling Huo Li ‘er up, Kasri said to her in a serious tone,

“Huo Li ‘er, no matter what, the other party is our savior. How can you hit him?” Huo Li ‘er, who had attacked in anger but was

casually dealt with by Ron, was then severely criticized by Kasri. Her original anger instantly dissipated, and her rationality returned. She knew how stupid her actions

were just now.

No matter what, Roger was the benefactor who had broken the engagement. She was angry over a small matter and even wanted to

hit him. It was really inexcusable. However, when Huo Li ‘er thought about how Roger had belittled her small chest, an

unknown fire immediately burned in her

heart.

After Kasri finished talking about Huo Li ‘er, she immediately said to Roger, “I’m sorry, but Huo Li ‘er has a childish

temper. She has been like this since she was

young.”

Roger also knew that Huo Li ‘er did not intend to kill him just now. She was just angry from embarrassment and wanted to teach him a

lesson. Therefore, Roger only used brute force to

force her to the ground and didn’t attack with

magic. Otherwise, Huo Li ‘er would have turned into ashes and melted into the air. “It’s fine. I did go a little too far just now.”
