Mystery: Who has seen my brother?

Chapter 158 Hunting
Eve placed her hand on Klein's shoulder and took him to the Rhodes Islands.

There is no curfew at night in the Rhodes Islands, so it is not as quiet as Loon, but there are also fewer people than during the day.

As they walked along the street, they occasionally saw a drunkard lying on the ground. After walking about five hundred meters, Klein and Eve saw a strong man from Feysac who was about two meters tall.

His two-meter height made him particularly conspicuous. His greasy golden hair looked like it had not been washed for a long time. He had an ordinary appearance, with a long scar on his left cheek extending from his eyebrow to the top of his nose.

This is Klein's target tonight—Robert Dickinson.

This was a hunt that had been prepared for a long time. Klein had marked him specially when he first selected his hunting target.

In front of Robert Dickinson stood a scantily clad black-haired girl, her slender hands gently resting on Robert Dickinson's sturdy arms, her fingers sliding slowly down his arms with a subtle teasing.

Klein sniffed, and the strong smell of alcohol and the stench of vomit immediately made him hold his breath.

There were drunkards and taverns around, so Crane couldn't tell how drunk Robert Dickinson was just by smell. But judging from his appearance, he must have drunk a lot but was not unconscious.

Experienced, cautious pirates didn't allow themselves to become "corpses" lying in the streets, as they might otherwise become actual corpses.

Their bounties are still hanging on the wall, and adventurers are everywhere trying to trade their heads for the bounty.

Klein did not move forward, always keeping a certain distance from Robert Dickinson to avoid being discovered.

He saw Robert Dickinson laughing with great satisfaction. His strong arm slid around the girl's waist, one hand roaming over her body, causing her to giggle. The dark-skinned girl must be mixed-race, with deep features that evoked a unique charm. She wore a short black halter dress that barely covered her thighs. She was about 1.7 meters tall, but looked unusually small next to Robert, who stood 2 meters tall.

The huge height difference allowed Robert to see a beautiful scene just by lowering his head. The girl's eyes were slightly raised, and her eyes were as sticky as honey to Robert. One hand was placed on her chest and moved gently downwards, and the fabric on her chest slid down, and the beautiful scene was further displayed in the man's eyes.

Robert felt his blood boiling, the alcohol simmering in his body fueling his desire. He wanted nothing more than to release all his energy and lust. But even a reckless pirate wouldn't want to be watched while doing something like that. Robert wrapped his arm around her slender waist and walked towards the tavern he'd chosen.

Klein suddenly felt awkward, not knowing whether to follow or not. Although he knew that pirates would seek out such places or streetwalkers for pleasure after landing, this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

After hesitating for two seconds, Klein followed. After all, when doing something like that, people's vigilance is always lower than usual. This is beneficial to him, but it's a pity for the innocent girl, who will be frightened.

Eve took two quick steps to catch up with Klein.

Klein didn't say anything as the two of them walked down the street as usual. Eve would sometimes watch him hunt, but more often they'd drink in the tavern.

They quickened their pace and passed by Robert. The "magician's" nimble hands allowed Klein to easily take a Loen penny from Robert's pocket without him noticing.

After getting the copper coin, Klein and Eve walked a few dozen meters in the original direction and immediately turned to another place.

Klein casually broke off a branch from a roadside book, cleaned the branches, and made a simple wand. He then held the copper penny in his left hand and began to divine.

The two followed the direction of the wand and came to Robert's tavern.

Eve sniffed and smelled a cheap perfume in the room on the second floor. It was the scent of that girl. She pointed to the room on the second floor to Klein.

Klein's five senses weren't as sharp as Eve's, but he could still smell the perfume at such a close distance. However, in order to prevent Robert from discovering him when they first met, Klein didn't get close and didn't smell the perfume on the black-haired girl.

Besides, there was more than one room here, and Robert was not the only one who wanted to spend a wonderful night. The mixture of various low-quality perfumes was a disaster for the nose.

He also has a way of finding the room where the target is but it takes some time.

Eve saw Klein nod to her and put down her hand. She watched Klein take out matches, quickly light them and then extinguish them. He took the extinguished matches in his hand, clung to the wall nimbly, and threw the extinguished matches in one by one.

The strong smell of perfume just covered up the smell of matches.

Klein pulled out the tarot cards from his pocket and hid by the window, his eyes fixed on the neck of the man inside.

brush!
A "World" card flew out and headed straight for Robert's throat.

In an instant, Robert's hair stood on end. Before he could think, his body instinctively turned to the right. The tarot card stuck to his neck, passed over the woman, and was firmly nailed to the wall.

Faced with the sudden attack, Robert did not panic. Instead, he sneered, pushed away the woman who was frightened and voiceless and trembling all over, and tried to pull out a short spear from under the pillow.

brush!
Another tarot card flew in, heading towards Robert's hand that was stretched out on the pillow.

As he threw the tarot cards, Klein put one foot on the windowsill, loosened his grip on the pipe, and entered the room.

"Another adventurer seeking death." Robert sneered. Although he did not get the weapon, Robert was very confident in his own strength. He would never be defeated by this young man who came out of nowhere, not to mention that Robert was confident that he could get the weapon.

"Boy, you're new here, right?" Robert had never heard of or seen such an adventurer before. Adventurers capable of challenging him were all somewhat famous on the sea. "Grandpa is here to teach you the ways of life. If you see me in the next life, remember to lie down and yell at me!"

Klein wasn't affected by his ridicule. He thought calmly that if a "warrior" lost his weapon, his combat effectiveness would be greatly weakened.

The obvious atmosphere frightened the girl so much that she dared not make a sound. She could only cover her mouth tightly to prevent herself from screaming. She wanted to survive and did not want to be killed for disturbing the two masters.

Eve stood outside the tavern, leaning against the wall bored, listening to the noise inside.

There was a distinct noise coming from within the room, one could hear it even with unenhanced five senses.

But after less than three minutes, the noise had stopped.

So fast... Eve thought as she jumped lightly onto the windowsill on the second floor.

Robert was already a corpse at this time, and a deep bloodstain on his neck indicated the cause of his death.

We need to deal with this quickly, someone will be here to check it out soon... Klein thought to himself... And that lady, if we leave her here, she might be slaughtered by the enraged pirates.

"Master! Master! Please don't kill me!" The girl saw Klein looking at her and immediately knelt on the bed, begging continuously. She ripped off the sling from her shoulders and cried, "Master, I can do anything, anything, please don't kill me!"

"Don't be afraid. Don't be afraid."

A sweet female voice suddenly appeared in their ears.

Klein looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl with long brown hair and a gentle appearance jumping in from the windowsill. He was suddenly a little dazed.

Because this girl actually looks 50% like his brother!

"We are just ordinary adventurers and we won't kill you."

The girl looked at the girl who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, sniffed and shrank back, but her body was no longer shaking.

Eve chuckled softly, her gentle face full of friendliness. "He" brought Robert's body closer to the mirror world, then walked straight towards the girl, picked her up by the waist, and covered her with the blanket from the bed.

Although it is hot summer, the wind is still quite cold at night.

"Let's go." Eve turned and said to Klein.

Klein nodded. After this series of events, he already knew who the girl in front of him was.

Without any delay, the two jumped out of the window. The brunette was so scared that she dared not speak. She could only clutch the small blanket and try her best to reduce her presence.

Eve put the brunette down only when they reached a deserted place.

The girl wrapped herself tightly in the blanket and looked at the two men timidly.

"master……"

"Don't be afraid," Klein soothed him, "We need you to do something."

The brunette paled instantly, bit her lower lip, and nodded slightly.

Eve entered the mirror space, cut off Robert's head, put it in a wooden box, and reappeared in front of the two.

He handed her the wooden box and said, "This contains Robert's head. His bounty is two hundred Ruen gold pounds, not including bounties from other countries. You will take this to exchange for the bounty tomorrow. The reward is ten pounds."

To prevent retaliation, many adventurers will let others lead the bounty.

The brunette's eyes suddenly widened. She looked nervously at Eve, then at Klein. She couldn't believe this was true, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Klein felt a complicated feeling after seeing this. If given a choice, who would be willing to sell their body and soul?

"Thank you... Thank you..." The black-haired girl slowly curled up, tears sliding down her face. Her long black hair was soaked by her tears and stuck to her face, but she seemed not to notice at all. She just sobbed and said, "Thank you..."
