Otherworldly Time Thieves

Chapter 24 The hope of becoming stronger (2)
"What a beautiful pattern!" Frank's eyes lit up, and he was about to reach for it, but Galoni's hand holding the cigarette case shrank, making him miss it.

"Don't be so stingy! Just take a look!" Frank rubbed his hands, anxiously.

"Uncle Frank, I don't want you to watch it," Galoni shook his head, with a look of reluctance on his face: "I'm afraid you'll have another occupational disease!"

"This..." Frank smiled brightly, rubbing his hands together.

"What is this old man's occupation?" Old Zhu couldn't help asking a little funny seeing the two of them.

"Uncle Frank is a famous high-ranking thief on the mainland." Galoni explained to him.

"A thief? A thief?" Old Zhu was stunned, and subconsciously pressed his pocket. It was full of cigarettes, and it was his last capital, so he couldn't be careless.

"Damn it, don't compare me with that lowly profession!" Frank was furious when he heard this, and roared at Lao Zhu: "The thief is the greatest profession in the world! It is the greatest profession in the whole continent!" It's the pinnacle of existence! Don't use the word thief to describe me!"

Following Frank's roar, a strong sense of oppression came from him, making Lao Zhu suffocate. It could be seen that Frank was really angry.

"Okay, okay, don't be angry!" Lao Zhu hurriedly comforted, "It was my fault."

"Hmph!" Frank snorted coldly, turned his head and ignored Lao Zhu.

"Brother, thieves are indeed a respectable profession. A truly powerful thief has the strength no less than a warrior and the wisdom no less than a magician. A rogue is an existence that people yearn for on the entire continent." When the two got into an awkward situation, Galoni hurried out to smooth things over and explained to Lao Zhu.

"So that's the case, I'm really sorry, you know, I'm not from this world, I don't know at all!" Lao Zhu quickly apologized to Frank after realizing it, took out a cigarette and passed one over: "Come on, smoke Cigarettes, you have a lot of adults, don't argue with me!"

"Okay!" Frank also remembered that the guy in front of him who looked like a barbarian was actually not from this world at all, and his anger subsided.

After lighting a cigarette for Frank, Lao Zhu handed another to Galone, and then lit one himself.

Frank was also smoking for the first time, and after getting used to the choking first puff, he gradually mastered the tricks of smoking, so the three of them puffed and smoked in the hall.

Under the smog, Lao Zhu stared blankly at the pattern on the top of the hall. Although he didn't speak, there was always a sense of aggrieved feeling in his heart. He remembered that when he was on the earth, people shunned him wherever he went. Comparing the situation of being deflated everywhere in this world, not to mention anything else, even the two people in front of him can easily beat him, and unexpectedly become an out-and-out weak person inadvertently, the loss in his heart can be imagined .

When he thought of this, anger and unwillingness kept haunting him, showing on his face unknowingly.
