Comics: Starting from Killer Queen

Even if she made amends immediately, it was too late. This ambiguous attitude was enough for Roland, who was looking down at her, to see everything he should and shouldn't see.

The worst thing was that at this time Aozaki Aoko realized belatedly that the other person seemed to be her brother-in-law, the man favored by Chengzi.

After realizing this, Qingzi struggled even harder, but for some reason, a sore feeling still spread from her limbs to her internal organs.

Feeling her face getting hot, Aozaki Aoko threw away everything else and tried her best to put on a fierce expression, but in this situation, this kind of fierce appearance but weak inner strength made her pretty face even more cute.

"Let me go now! Otherwise I will tell Orange that you are a pervert!"

In desperation, Aozaki Aoko ignored all previous grudges and just wanted to get out of her current predicament as soon as possible.

"What a terrifying threat!" Roland was stunned for a moment. "Come to think of it, when I first met Orange, there was indeed a misunderstanding like this. You exaggerated it, and this impression might have been confirmed."

"Right, let me go quickly, or else if this rumor gets out, you'll be in trouble!"

Finding that her threat seemed to have worked, Aozaki Aoko tried even harder to persuade Roland, but because of her current situation, there was still a hint of guilt in her voice.

In fact, compared to Roland, Aozaki Aoko was more afraid of that kind of scene. Originally, her fight with Orange was just a common battle for inheritance rights, but if the cheap brother-in-law in front of her was mixed in, it would suddenly become a third-rate ethics drama!

This will make the Aozaki family a laughing stock in the entire demon world!

But Roland just turned his head to look at her angry face and smiled inexplicably.

"It's okay to let you go, but Ms. Aozaki... I want to clarify first, what you just said was not a rumor."

"——Yuju, save me!"

Chapter 201 It’s all Orange’s fault!

It was the first time that Roland discovered that a person's face could turn from red to white in an instant.

Seeing Aozaki Aoko about to explode, Roland chuckled, loosened his hand, and let her fall to the ground.

Because it was too sudden, although Roland did not cause much damage to Qingzi, the girl still took a lot of effort to get up from the ground.

Although it had rained during the day, it had basically dried up now, and Aozaki Aoko didn't look too miserable.

She patted her skirt and stood up, her face full of indignation, but considering the previous situation, Aozaki Aoko did not continue to attack.

"Humph, the man that Orange likes is not a coward. But, can you explain why you did that before? Was this joke also the work of Orange?"

Aozaki Aoko had no sense of being a loser, and her previous fights were not simply to vent her anger. After discovering that Roland seemed to be someone who really had nothing to do with the magic world, and was just a weirdo who was pursuing some gravity and mystery, she was no longer so aggressive.

"why?"

Roland was a little confused. Even though she knew about his relationship with Orange, Aozaki Aoko still acted secretive. But now she didn't care at all and even accused him with confidence. What kind of strange misunderstanding happened in between?

"I should ask you, Aozaki, about this matter. I paid you to do it during the day, so why do you turn your face against me at night?"

"How dare you say that! Look, this is the money you gave me!"

When this matter was mentioned, Aozaki Aoko showed a look of gritted teeth and took out the three bills from her pocket.

Although they have been through a lot, the banknotes are still very neat, without even any extra creases. This shows how much Qingzi cherishes and is reluctant to part with them.

That is why, when this emotion is reversed, one becomes so angry.

"Any questions?"

Roland examined the three Fukuzawa Yukichi pictures and did not notice anything unusual. He had always been quite generous with money. Whether the other party could get it was one thing, but what he gave was real wealth.

"This is fake! Do you think the fluorescent ink on it can't be seen in the countryside?"

"what?"

Roland was stunned for a moment, as if he realized something, and felt a little amused.

In this case, it was indeed his negligence.

He only remembered that the version of banknotes used in today's era was the same as that used in previous eras, but he did not pay attention to the difference in craftsmanship.

Fluorescent ink is clearly a major advancement in anti-counterfeiting, but for the conservative island nation, it is a technology that has only been available in the last decade. In Aozaki Aoko's current view, although other technologies are the same, the fluorescence is undoubtedly proof of a counterfeit.

"Tell me quickly, did Orange ask you to tease me on purpose?"

Looking at the irritable Aozaki Aoko, Roland sighed silently.

"Because it will be troublesome to explain, I will just tell you the conclusion directly. Miss Aozaki, I can tell you clearly that these banknotes are not counterfeits, but genuine Fukuzawa Yukichi banknotes. It's just that for some reason, they have not been circulated yet."

"It will take at most ten years. You can store the banknotes there without any problem. If you still don't believe me, give them to me. I can double the price and give you the equivalent you want. Gold, jewelry, whatever you want."

Seeing Roland's confident look, Aozaki Aoko, who originally wanted to take action to accuse him, hesitated.

She looked at the three bills in her hand and her eyes lit up.

Yesterday, Youzhu also said that the craftsmanship of these banknotes is the same as the official ones, and the added fluorescence seems to be able to serve as an identification tool. Could it be that these are some commemorative coins that have not yet been officially issued?

Although she didn't know much about this, when she was working in Tokyo, Aozaki Aoko had heard of people who specialized in collecting things in this area.

If Roland is willing to exchange these banknotes for double the price and hard currency that is not easy to counterfeit now, then what will the value of these banknotes be in ten years?

"……forget it."

Aozaki Aoko seemed to have let out a sigh of relief, revealing a refreshing smile and carefully put away the money in her hand again.

Roland responded to her questions so straightforwardly and did not pursue her sudden attack, which made Qingzi feel embarrassed to ask for the money back as compensation for mental damage.

"By the way," after collecting the banknotes, Aozaki Aoko looked at Roland expectantly, "Can you give me an estimate of how much these three ten thousand dollars will be worth in ten years?"

"Of course it's worth thirty thousand dollars."

Roland showed a puzzled expression, "This is not a counterfeit bill, or a product that will appreciate in value."

This bastard!

Aozaki Aoko clenched her fists again and almost broke her teeth.

"Well, I don't have time to waste. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, I'll be leaving, Ms. Aozaki."

But Roland seemed not to notice her expression and just smiled and blinked.

"I asked around today and found out that the legendary witch lives in a haunted house on the mountain. I plan to try my luck at night."

Qingzi, who had just thought that the day would end like this, looked bitter again when she heard Roland's words. She sighed and began to repeat what she said in the morning.

"I say, the legend of the witch is even less reliable than the haunted house..."

"I saw the witch in black throwing down the cat bell. It was definitely not an illusion or a performance. It was a real mystery."

Roland said firmly.

That signature move made it impossible for Qingzi to question the falsity of his words.

The girl raised her head abruptly and stared at Roland.

"When did you see it?"

She asked as if she was unwilling to give in.

Of course just now.

Roland thought to himself, but started to change the subject.

"Oh, I'm so lucky. I found the person I've always dreamed of when I first arrived in this city. It saved me a lot of effort. I must have wronged Orange before..."

In the past few days, Kuonji Yuju has indeed been active for a little longer than usual because of the attacks by those puppets.

But theoretically, this is impossible...

Aozaki Aoko looked at Roland, who had ignored the hint from the Nameless Forest and barged in, and put away the delusions in her heart.

No matter how dumb she is, the order of priority is very clear. As a magician, this is the first rule.

To silence witnesses before strange rumors start to spread.

This is the top priority, fastest and unquestionable choice.

She looked at Roland in front of her, gradually distanced herself from him, and then slowly raised her hand.

Even her roommate had never studied the magic of modifying memory, so the best method for her now would be to kill the other person.

It just so happens that right now we are in an empty park, and the Nameless Forest has been set up to prevent any witnesses.

The topic that she was discussing with Youzhu during dinner actually came to her in the evening.

Now that you have made your choice, this day will definitely come.

This is her realization about what she told her cohabitant.

"Ms. Aozaki?"

Seeing Qingzi suddenly raising his hand, Roland raised his eyebrows and looked at him in confusion.

Aozaki Aoko did not answer. In her clear eyes, only Roland's face remained.

She vaguely knew the purpose of Orange sending Roland here, to let her kill her nominal brother-in-law, an innocent person, with her own hands.

After all, she had always mocked herself for being a half-baked person, and it was only she who could come up with such a bad plan.

Roland looked at the silent Aozaki Aoko, as if he wanted to say something, but the next moment, he closed his mouth and smiled with interest.

A blue magic circle appeared on Qingzi's wrist.

Along with the mechanical driving sound, the magic circle began to rotate rapidly, like the jet of a rocket.

This is her most commonly used technique. Although the quality of the circuit is not satisfactory, her rotation speed, durable structure, magic quality and utilization rate are beyond the norm.

Simply activating the magic circuit would generate sound waves, and the speed at which magic power was generated was even faster than the flow of blood.

Therefore, she is better than Kuonji Yuju at this magic bullet technique that only requires the simple flow of magic power to form.

It only takes one strike for the opponent's body to explode like a watermelon. The fallen trees in the forest near the mansion can clearly prove this.

In the case of a direct bombardment, regular magicians would not be able to resist this kind of attack and would be blown to pieces by this extraordinary firepower. Therefore, Youzhu would let Qingzi go out on patrol alone as a training exercise.

"I am going to kill you."

Aozaki Aoko showed a stern expression.

But to her surprise, Roland just stared at her, and there seemed to be a light in his pupils.

He neither ran away nor showed any doubt, but shook his head calmly.

"Do you think I'm kidding? This is not the child's play battle we just had! Since you defeated me before, I'll give you a chance. If you can run away before my magic bullet is fired, I'll spare you..."

"It can't be done."

Roland's tone was quite firm.

"Are you underestimating my technique?!"

"Don't get me wrong, Ms. Aozaki, I'm not doubting the power of your magic bullet, I'm just underestimating you."

Roland said in a calm tone, walking towards Aozaki Aoko step by step.

"do not come!"

Clearly the blue magic bullets were gathering and forming, but it was the unarmed Roland who was moving forward, and it was Aoko who had the advantage who was moving backward.

Finally, as the two were getting closer and closer, accompanied by the sound of a sonic boom as the air was torn apart, the blue magic bullet passed by Roland and blew the bushes behind him into a mess.

Amidst the loud explosion, Roland came in front of Aozaki Aoko again.

Qingzi did not make any unnecessary movements, but just stared at Roland in front of him.

"It's just like what Orange said, her stupid sister is just a half-baked one, but it seems that's not entirely true."

Roland looked at Aozaki Aoko in front of him, his eyes gleaming with a different kind of brilliance.

"You have already been prepared to take a life, but you are still unwilling to go against your heart? As a magus, you are really unqualified, but from another perspective, you are really great."

"You know magicians?"

Aozaki Aoko's expression changed slightly.

"Of course I know. After all, I have signed a contract with Orange. This is normal, right? Besides, you knew this when we met for the first time, didn't you?"

Looking at Roland's innocent face, Aozaki Aoko's originally pale face quickly turned red with anger.

If the other party is really an insider who knows the rules and will not disclose information at will, then wouldn't my previous conflicted, aware, and pretentious behavior be just like a clown?

"Then you also tricked me at the sushi restaurant..."

Aozaki Aoko felt extremely angry when she thought that the other party was already an insider who knew about the other world.

"When did I lie to you?"
