Chapter 122: Brother and Sister

The beast cart slowly turned the corner; unexpectedly, Motel's driving skills were quite good, and with her proficient technique and excellent pack beast, the cart slowed evenly, more skillfully than the servants previously sent away, finally stopping extremely steadily before Luge's house.

Luge jumped down first; Daisy did not come out to welcome him, presumably busy in the kitchen. With those big eaters around, daily preparations were naturally indispensable. Pity Luge had taken Aijin and Dasha with him when he left; otherwise they could have helped her.

Young Master Lorigo, hooded, stepped down from the cart under Motel's support. This fellow had suffered plenty in these past few days—poor food, restless sleep—and since he was not an Extraordinary, his life of pampered luxury had not given him a strong body.

Luge walked into the house and looked toward the kitchen; Daisy happened to come out at that very moment.

Seeing her appearance, Luge laughed.

"Remember what I told you before?" Luge said with a laugh.

He sat at the table in the living room and poured himself a cup of fruit tea he hadn't had a chance to enjoy earlier.

Daisy nodded.

Luge waved his hand, and she vanished from there.

This was a usage he had discovered through constant practice before, always used on two kobolds; this was the first time on an ordinary person. Leave his Secret Technique Mark on the target, and if the other party had no thought of resistance, he could take the person into the Abyssal Bedroom Space just like collecting an item.

Bang!

With a boom, shattered wooden boards flew everywhere; the walls Daisy carefully wiped every day and a set of favorite table and chairs leaning against the wall all turned into debris.

Three Extraordinaries of the flesh side charged from the front, while behind and outside the window five more shaking figures leapt out, with obvious Spell Waves, evidently surrounding Luge.

Luge and Lorigo had thought on the cart that this residence arranged by the red-haired Motel would sooner or later be watched; previously neither had thought Lorigo would be in this situation, so Daisy was still left here. Luge didn't know what Lorigo thought, but he wouldn't let Daisy be captured and tortured for interrogation for no reason.

"Young Master Lorigo, the Baron has ordered that you colluded with the evil Atoner Madman, were bewitched by him to plot against the old Baron, and must follow us back for family judgment."

A squad of Knights blocked the courtyard outside, stepping closer and closer; the low wall of the courtyard didn't even reach their mounts' chests.

With the fabricated charges piled onto Lorigo, the capture efforts seemed to rise in a straight line.

Luge laughed, using Foul Skin to tear open a gap in the encirclement, dodged the incoming arrows, and leapt into the courtyard; with a wave of his hand Lorigo and Motel also vanished. The purpose of having them get off the cart was to draw attention so Luge could leisurely walk into the house and try to find Daisy.

He didn't want to cause trouble for the neighbors nearby; he casually put away the old recliner under the tree and then ran toward the most complex district of the Outer City District.

In the distance, another squad of Noble Knights was hurrying over.

He charged left and right all the way; upon reaching an empty alley, he immediately opened a Spatial Door and rushed in himself.

The biggest drawback of this current Abyssal Bedroom Space was that no one could see the entrance and exit; otherwise, if he went in, he would be ambushed.

Seeing him walk in laughing heartily, the two kobolds also breathed a sigh of relief.

Beside them lay three humans, all knocked unconscious by the two Dragonborn Kobolds; these were arranged by him in advance. He had also told them before not to resist: first, to make it easy to put them into the space; second, to make it easy to knock them unconscious.

"Brother Luge, I didn't have the heart to be ruthless with Daisy, so she didn't pass out from the first hit, so I hit her again; seems I hit a bit too hard..." Aijin said with some worry.

"And this red-haired Miss Motel—when she entered the space, Dasha directly blocked her in front; she subconsciously wanted to dodge but controlled herself; I was afraid of making another mistake, so I hit her down ruthlessly; seems I hit too hard again."

Aijin looked full of self-reproach, while Dasha beside her started playing dumb again, just humming twice to settle it.

Luge said with a laugh: "It's fine; I still have healing potions. At worst, give them a sip later. You did well. Actually, it's no big deal if they know about this space; they're smart people."

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Luge walked out of the alley and came to a tavern; at this time there weren't many people. He sat in a dim corner, listening to the drinkers boast about their bravery and anecdotes in the city.

Naturally, the most talked-about topic was the assassination of the old Baron in Red Moon City.

He listened for a while but didn't get the news he expected; it seemed Miss Starry Sky hadn't returned yet.

Most Wizard Apprentices should have a relatively strict sense of time, right?

He waved his hand, and Lorigo and the other two appeared haphazardly on the chairs opposite. He stepped forward, pried open their mouths, and fed each a small sip of deep green potion.

He then beckoned a waiter and ordered some of the tavern's specialty food.

Soon the three woke up and began wolfing down their food.

"Lord Luge, your method is truly excellent; just a bit of a headache," Lorigo said.

"A slight side effect of a spell," Luge said. "This is a Composite Spell combined with Dog-head Summoning, my own self-created spell."

The red-haired woman ate beside him, looking at Luge twice with a strange expression.

While drinking meat soup, Lorigo also listened to the conversations around him; he soon realized that his savior sister seemed not to have arrived yet.

People came and went in the tavern. Several people each held a cup of wine, and after finishing their meal, they kept sitting in the corner.

"Are you waiting for me?"

Suddenly a pleasant voice rang out; a person wearing a Wizard Robe and a Hood stood by the table.

Luge looked at her curiously.

Lorigo immediately took out a delicate small thing from his bosom; that faceless person also took out one and waved it in his hand.

"Dazuoya, it really is you!" Lorigo said excitedly.

"It's me, Elder Brother Lorigo. I think we shouldn't keep wasting time here," she said. "I returned a day ago and spent a day learning about recent events in the city."

She said this while sizing up Luge and the others.

"Now, Elder Brother, I think we should go to Fanning Castle. I haven't seen that stern Eldest Brother for a long time."

She said this and walked out, giving Lorigo no chance to reply, as if she came here just to find him to go together as a witness.

"Lord Luge..." Lorigo looked at Luge expectantly.

Luge nodded with a smile.

"You need not worry. Your sister looks confident, so naturally there won't be any problem." He understood what Lorigo meant. "Of course, I'd also like to appreciate a Strong One's battle. I'll go with you. You two stay here."

Luge looked at Daisy and Motel. Motel wanted to say something, but in the end she only nodded.
