Lord of Mysteries: Yao Guang

The battle is over.

Esther nodded towards Klein, and several light spots drifted down from her ears, leaving several ripples of light around her and nearby, and then dissipated.

She hung Daniz's gun on her waist, climbed neatly along the wall of the nearby building to the roof, quickly passed over several rooftops, and quickly left with Daniz on the other side.

The official Beyonders will definitely be attracted by the movement here and will come here soon.

The first thing Esther did after returning to the hotel was to pray to The Fool and ask Him to help tell the Hanged Man that the battle was over.

I don’t know how much bounty he will get in the end. If the official Beyonder is present, Klein probably won’t be able to take away the head.

Esther sighed, walked out of the door again, and found Daniz sitting in the living room uneasily. Although he had a proud smile on his face, he always swayed subconsciously in his chair.

"Why do you look so panicked? Didn't today go smoothly?" Esther said as she poured two cups of cold tea from the hotel's teapot and placed one of them next to Danitz.

"Huh, yes, those guys got the fate they deserved, they deserved it!" Daniz said this, staring at the cup and frowning, "This is the time to drink, drink! Who will come to drink tea? …”

Esther pretended not to hear, raised her cup to Daniz, and drank the slightly bitter tea in the cup.

"I'm going back to sleep."

Danitz was stunned for a moment: "You don't wait for Gehrman to come back?"

Esther was also confused. She was not worried about Klein's finishing work: "Why wait for him to come back? He will be back soon."

Daniz scratched his head, and when he saw Esther going back to the room and closing the door tightly, he stretched his limbs lazily. However, considering Gehrman's cold expression, Danitz did not dare to be as casual as Esther, and could only continue to sit in the living room, waiting for the gloomy adventurer to return to the hotel.

——

The next morning, when Klein walked out of the room, Esther was the only one sitting in the living room, writing and drawing in her notebook.

"morning."

"Good morning, are you going out?"

Klein took off the top hat on the coat rack and heard the loud shouts coming from Daniz's bedroom. He replied with a straight face, "Well, I should leave for the night."

Esther pointed to the direction where the snoring came from: "Do you need me to help you keep an eye on Daniz?"

"No...but I have something to ask his captain."

Klein had already tampered with Daniz's cloak to ensure that he could track him through divination.

Esther tapped her chin with the end of her pen and thought for two seconds: "If Daniz wants to run away, I really have no other way but to keep his mind empty."

"Just say it." Klein's answer was very confident.

Seeing Klein so casually, Esther immediately made a guess: "That's right, divination can also catch him."

After Klein left the hotel, Esther sat on a chair and continued to organize her notes. Compared to the witch's frost, the "Iron" Maiviti's frost attack was not powerful, but it had a corrosive effect. He himself It seems that there is even stronger muscle power...

Suddenly, she received a message from "The Fool", and in the faint light, a crimson figure's prayer appeared.

Esther was also very happy when she heard "The Hanged Man" said that he would get a share of three thousand pounds this time.

Three thousand gold pounds is already as valuable as Daniz! Five hundred gold pounds is enough for me, and the rest will be given to Klein, the main force responsible for solving "Steel". Unfortunately, there is no more physical benefit this time...

But pirates make so much money.

It was almost noon when someone who didn't know the value of the gold pound was being converted woke up. Daniz came out of the house wearing a baggy shirt. When he saw Esther, he was the first to ask, "Where is Herman?"

Esther had been waiting for a long time before but did not see Daniz getting up. She simply went to the restaurant to pack two lunches and came back. She was biting fish fingers in the living room while flipping through the local gossip newspapers in Bayam for entertainment.

Upon hearing Daniz's inquiry, she pointed to the other lunch on the table without raising her head:

"Are you awake? Your share. Hermann is gone."

"Gone!?" Daniz immediately raised his voice, full of disbelief. Isn't Hamel worried that Herman is absconding with the bounty?

"I just left in the morning, so if you want to escape, now is a good opportunity." Esther said casually.

But watching her bite into pieces of fried fish sticks, Daniz subconsciously shrank his neck. He sat on the chair next to him, took out the scones with a rich spice flavor, broke them into pieces, and stuffed them into his mouth. :

"He really left like that?"

"I can joke, but Gehrman can't." Esther rolled her eyes at Daniz, "By the way, it seems he wants to talk to your captain and ask her any questions."

Daniz's eyebrows immediately raised: "How come it has anything to do with our captain?"

Esther also shook her head: "I really don't know this. If he comes back tomorrow, you can ask him yourself."

Daniz immediately stopped talking and concentrated on eating his lunch.

"I have to go out in the afternoon. If you go out," Esther suddenly showed a bad smile, "you must protect your head, right?"

Daniz felt a chill behind his back: "W-what do you mean?"

Esther pushed the newspaper in her hand to Daniz: "You are now worth 4,200 pounds, Mr. Lieyan. Your head is much heavier than your wallet!"

Daniz was surprised when he flipped through the gossip tabloid and found that this messy entertainment newspaper actually used half of the page to place his new reward order to make up for the empty space under the simple reports.

Daniz's face was full of excitement: "Haha! If those fools on the ship knew about it, they would be so angry that they would get up in the middle of the night to clean the deck. I am now the strongest bosun of the Golden Dream!"

"Only if you can save your own head?"

Esther's eyes glanced at Daniz's neck, causing him to lean back subconsciously.

"I'm just, just happy... Tsk, you're such a letdown!" Daniz slapped the newspaper on the table.

"But you really have to be careful and put on a good disguise when you go out. Do you know how to put on makeup now?"

"Well, I've learned a lot." Daniz responded vaguely.

In fact, he is really not stupid, otherwise he would not be able to endure the days of frequent lessons from the captain on the "Golden Dream". It's just that when it comes to makeup, his eyes always get dark when no one teaches him the tricks.

Especially for a pirate, being ruthless in fighting is of course more meaningful than having beautiful eyebrows.

——

Esther still wore the red wig, but this time she placed the mole in the middle of her cheek. She only wore shadows to make her facial features more three-dimensional and deep, and her eyebrows were deepened, making her look bolder and bolder.

The local "cosmetics" in Bayam are, to put it bluntly, powders or syrups of various natural animals and plants. Because there is no need to worry about affecting the skin quality, Esther can mix them very casually.

This kind of subtle influence is basically equivalent to non-existence on the physique of extraordinary people.

This time she still controlled a few light spots to fall in her eyes, covering up the original light color, then put on the straw hat and left the hotel.

Daniz ran away after eating, and Esther wasn't too worried. Seeing his hesitant look from time to time, Esther knew that this guy was going to ask "Gehrman's purpose" before he asked clearly. Will not escape easily.

Of course, it may also be because you don’t dare.

Esther went to the restaurant quite close to the Intis restaurant and got a simple black iron box. She did not open it for inspection on the spot, but took the things directly to another cheap budget hotel and asked for it. A regular room.

After locking the door of the room with her backhand, Esther opened the small box that was not heavy.

In addition to fifty gold pounds as advance payment, a small tube of emerald-colored liquid, there was also a ferry ticket to Simim Island at nine o'clock the day after tomorrow, and a photo that Esther had requested.

The woman in the photo has red hair and blue eyes. Although she is wearing a warm-colored dress, her soft appearance and determined eyes form a contrast, like a rose in full bloom but full of thorns.

The green liquid should be something that can change the color of the eyes. Esther cannot maintain the illusion for a long time. If the other party is too far away, it may escape the range of her interference.

The mental interference ability of the "Scammer" is only small, and Esther is not yet able to deceive many people on a large scale.

As for the safety of this liquid, I have to ask Klein to help with divination.

There was nothing else in the box, but out of caution, Esther scanned everything with a light spot, annihilating any possible occult connections.

After that, it’s all about waiting. When Klein comes back, Esther can set off the day after tomorrow. She planned to stay in this hotel for one night today and not be in a hurry to go back to "Azure Wind".

If Daniz really ran away, Esther could still follow Klein to catch him back. Considering this development, she actually hoped that Daniz would take the opportunity to run away.

Esther has wanted to steal Daniz's ability to control fire for a long time.

If there is a chance to fight, it would be great to steal it for fun.

——

Of course Daniz didn't know this. After solving the big trouble in his heart, he became more open-minded. After taking a short rest in the afternoon, he dressed up according to Esther's instructions, and then happily went to various places. Relax and enjoy yourself in entertainment situations.

Danitz went into the Sweet Leaf Bar, clinked wine glasses with the bastards he didn't know, and shouted and laughed at the girls dancing on the boxing ring.

As he drank one glass after another of Lielang, Daniz's face became redder and redder, and he listened proudly to others discussing the rumors of the fight between "Fire" and "Steel" and their random speculations.

Every time he thought about his huge bounty, Daniz smiled even more happily. He wished he could get back to the ship quickly and make the people on the same ship jealous of him.

Suddenly, a chill ran up his back, Daniz's eyes widened suddenly, and the liquor in his hand spilled all over his chest.

what's the situation! ?

But before he could react, the alertness derived from the "hunter's" spiritual intuition disappeared again.

Is someone targeting me? It can't be because of the bounty, damn...

Daniz rolled his eyes in confusion and didn't notice anything wrong in the bar.

Shit! Drink somewhere else! No one even noticed me!

Daniz drank all the liquor in the glass down his throat, slapped the liquor on the bar, and wandered out of the Xiangye Bar, looking for the next place where he could comfortably pass the time.
