"Need any help?"
Rhode walked over and asked in a low voice.
"No need, I can manage myself."
Tessa wiped the sweat from her face and said with a smile.
Rhode shrugged and found a chair to sit down.
He watched the busy figure of his neighbor's wife.
The loose house dress clung to her body as a gust of wind blew past.
Looking at her flawless silhouette, Rhode raised an eyebrow.
Do these Lighthouse Country housewives really like going out so brazenly without a bra?
Rhode thought about it carefully. It seemed that the Lighthouse Country wives he occasionally encountered while shopping at the supermarket were indeed dressed very casually.
Although going out without a bra wasn't the norm, it was still common among one or two out of ten women.
Even more outrageous, he had even encountered women wearing only a revealing thong bikini to the supermarket to buy things.
It seemed that formal attire was only worn when going to work.
"Here you go!"
Tessa, having finished grilling, bent over and handed the freshly grilled beef to Rhode.
When she bent over, the already loose-fitting dress naturally drooped down.
Rhode caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye, and his heart skipped a beat.
He averted his gaze, looking awkwardly to the side.
He swore he hadn't seen it on purpose.
He took the grilled meat from Tessa's hand, casually picked up a glass of drink, and concealed the strangeness on his face.
"That's my glass..."
Tessa looked at the orange juice Rhode was drinking and said softly.
"Huh?"
Rhode was stunned, and his expression became even more awkward.
What the hell was going on?
He really couldn't quite adapt to the openness of foreigners.
"It's okay, you can drink it."
Looking at Rhode's embarrassed expression, and then looking down at herself, Tessa probably guessed what had happened.
She covered her mouth and chuckled, not minding it at all.
She felt that this big boy was surprisingly cute.
She turned around and continued to busy herself, but there was a slight strangeness in her heart.
Women her age seemed to still be very attractive to these young men.
She had heard that younger boys liked mature women more.
She wondered if it was true.
"Almost made a fool of myself."
Rhode muttered softly as he drank the orange juice.
It was a good thing he wasn't in Dragon Country, otherwise, it would have been embarrassing.
"Hmm?"
He had just gotten up when his expression suddenly changed.
He reached into his pocket and took out the silver-white cross necklace.
The necklace, which had been unremarkable, was now somewhat hot to the touch.
Rhode's eyes narrowed as he looked towards the door of the villa.
A young woman in a maid outfit appeared out of nowhere and was walking towards the villa.
A person?
That's not right!
That's a freaking evil spirit!
[Seeking data, flowers, monthly tickets, is it too bland? I need to speed up the pace.]
Chapter 38: I'm Waiting for an Opportunity, Are You Waiting to Die?
This cross necklace was a magical artifact blessed with divine power.
Ordinary people couldn't possibly trigger a reaction.
The only explanation was that this guy wasn't human.
Appearing in the villa at this time could only mean it was an evil spirit.
Rhode watched the woman enter the villa and suddenly wasn't in a hurry to leave.
Since it dared to appear so openly, he wanted to see what kind of tricks this evil spirit was up to.
"I'm sorry, the party is already over."
Tessa, who was tidying up the trash, looked at the strange woman who suddenly walked in.
She thought it was a neighbor from around the area.
A apologetic smile immediately appeared on her face.
"I'm not here to attend the party, but to find a job here."
The woman had a reserved smile on her face and slowly opened her mouth to speak.
"Looking for a job? I'm sorry, we don't need a housekeeper or anything like that for the time being."
Upon hearing this, Tessa rejected the woman apologetically.
Although her husband's income was considerable, she could manage the villa herself, so she didn't need any help at all.
Moreover, there was no need to add this extra expense.
"Madam, I am currently homeless and only want to find a place to live. There's no need to give me a salary."
Seeing this, the woman revealed a sad expression on her face and directly played the sympathy card.
"This..."
Tessa hesitated. Reason told her to drive the woman away.
However, emotion made her unable to bear to drive away this pitiful woman.
"Why don't you come and stay at my house."
A voice came over.
Rhode, who had been listening for a long time, walked over with a smile.
He looked the woman up and down. She looked to be in her fifties or sixties, with some wrinkles on her skin.
However, she had a lot of temperament.
She was wearing an old-fashioned maid outfit, and her amiable face had a somewhat hypocritical smile.
It inexplicably gave people a feeling of smiling without sincerity.
"What? Is that not okay?"
Rhode tilted his head, looking at the woman whose face changed slightly, the smile on the corner of his mouth was somewhat playful.
"That's not very good."
Tessa said in a low voice, not wanting to cause any trouble for her neighbor because of herself.
"There's nothing not good about it. It just so happens that my house is lacking a nanny to clean and cook."
Rhode shrugged and interrupted Tessa's words.
"You also know that young people don't have the patience to do these things. It would be best if someone could help me handle them, and I happen to have a spare room in my house to accommodate this madam."
"You're not worried that I'll mistreat this old woman, are you?"
Upon hearing this, Tessa shook her head.
Looking at Rhode's bright smile, she felt her heart skip a beat.
How could this sunny and cheerful big boy be the kind of person who would bully an old person?
"Madam, my house is just ahead, come with me?"
Rhode slowly stepped forward, forcefully leading the woman out of the villa.
After leaving the villa, the old woman's expression became somewhat silent.
She followed silently behind Rhode.
Just as they were about to leave the vicinity of the villa, the silent old woman's expression slowly began to distort.
A huge shadow extended forward from behind Rhode, constantly growing larger.
Crack!
The bright streetlights suddenly malfunctioned, flickering a few times before going dark.
"You couldn't wait that long?"
Rhode sighed, his expression somewhat helpless.
He slowly turned around, looking at the woman behind him whose appearance had changed drastically.
Scarlet blood stained the clothes on her entire body, a bloody, mangled face, flowing with blood.
It looked as if she had been beaten to death alive with some blunt object.
"Mind your own business!"
The evil spirit's face was ferocious, and it pounced towards Rhode at an extremely fast speed.
Sharp nails, a hideous expression, an ordinary person would probably have been scared shitless.
Looking at the approaching evil spirit, Rhode slowly raised his head.
There was no trace of fear on his face, instead, he grinned, revealing a smile that made people's hearts tremble.
In the evil spirit's horrified eyes, the cross necklace, shining with holy light, smashed into its face.
Bang!
The evil spirit, with no power to resist, was punched to the ground.
Under the erosion of divine power, its entire body became illusory.
It was like being burned by flames, constantly emitting black smoke.
Looking at the evil spirit's painful expression, Rhode slowly reached out his hand and pressed it on that bloody, mangled face.
"There are no surveillance cameras here, the streetlights are broken, even if something happens, no one will know, what a great place."
"However, the reason I lured you here was to wait until no one was around to kill you."
"What are you waiting for?"
Waiting to die?
"Don't be afraid, I'll be quick, you won't feel any pain."
