The person was on the wrong ground, and Freya targeted him at the beginning!

Walking towards some remote alleys, he had only one purpose, which was to lure out the guys in the dark.

As the saying goes, it is easy to dodge an open attack but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark. Now that the problem has been discovered, it is better to deal with it early. If you delay for too long, you don’t know what will happen.

"Where does this kid want to go? There's a residential area ahead~"

The guy who had been following Cao Ye secretly became confused when he saw Cao Ye's route of action.

"Humph, isn't it better in the residential area? There are plenty of 'corners' here."

"I feel like something is wrong. Could it be that this guy has discovered us?"

"Impossible. He has been so careful and has been eating and drinking all the way. How could he find us? I think this guy might have lost his way."

"be lost?"

"That's right. Look at this guy. He's obviously not familiar with Orario. And he spends money so lavishly. His family is definitely not short of money. He must be a child from a wealthy family."

"Are you new to Orario?"

"To be honest, this working city is not as glamorous as it looks. I will give this young master from outside a 'welcome gift' to help him get familiar with the rules of Orario."

"give it to me."

The two men smiled at each other, and their eyes looking at Cao Ye were full of greed and excitement.

The thought of making a fortune soon made both of them feel particularly good. There was still some remaining magic wine in the clan that had not been sold this month.

As long as it succeeds today, they can taste the divine wine again in the evening.

When they thought of this, the two of them couldn't help but swallow their saliva. When they thought of the divine wine, they couldn't help but secrete saliva.

"Hey, that boy has stopped. He seems to be observing his surroundings."

"This young master, I'm afraid you've also discovered that you're 'lost'. Get ready, it's time for us to go too."

"Oh~"

At this time, Cao Ye looked around and nodded slightly.

This is a corner of a residential area, similar to a 'back street'. Compared to the clean and tidy streets just now, this place looks much more messy.

Although it is much better than "Skid Streets", the good things are still limited.

And this is exactly the place chosen by Cao Ye to get rid of the tail that has been following him. He doesn't like the feeling of being stared at.

"My friend, you look like you are lost. Do you need help?"

At this moment, a big man came out from the other side of the street. He had a rough face, a face full of flesh, a beard, and was wearing a linen shirt. It was obvious that he was not in a good situation.

Chapter 22: Stuck in an alley!

(ps: Sorry, the second chapter is updated late. I was asked by my friends to go out for a drink. I fell asleep when I came back and woke up in the early morning~~)

Looking at the burly man in front of him, Cao Ye smiled and finally came out.

However, looking at the bunch of animal ears on the other person's head, a hint of rejection flashed in Cao Ye's eyes. Girls with animal ears are treasures in the world, but male orcs just don't make him feel good.

As the saying goes, opposites attract and likes repel, especially when he's a guy with a face full of flesh.

"Friend, I think you need help."

"Oh? How did you figure that out?"

Looking at the guy in front of him, a cold light flashed in Cao Ye's eyes.

Cao Ye could clearly sense the blatant malice, and he was not the only one here. On the other side, there was another malicious person who kept moving, just over ten meters away, and he should be trying to get behind him.

But Cao Ye did not show it. He wanted to see what these two guys were going to do.

"Hahaha~, I'm a friendly adventurer. Based on the principle of mutual assistance, I'm here to provide you with some 'help'. However, I need you to pay me a little bit of reward."

At this point, the orc Walter revealed his true identity.

He was not a cunning guy to begin with. At most, he was just a third-rate adventurer from a third-rate family. Now he was in his thirties and still a level 1.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will never be able to break through lv1 to lv2 in his lifetime. It can be said that his future is already determined.

There are actually quite a few adventurers like him in Orario.

Indeed, God's grace is very powerful. It can develop the potential of mortals in the lower world and improve their strength bit by bit through continuous efforts.

But not everyone has this "qualification". This is what the so-called "potential" is all about.

The vast majority of adventurers are stuck at levels 1 and 2 throughout their lives, and not everyone can upgrade to lv3.

"A little reward?"

"Yes, it's just a small reward. I'm sure you come from a wealthy family, so it's just a small amount of money. It shouldn't be a big deal, right?"

Walter said this, in fact, if possible, he didn't want to fight.

After all, his strength is just that, and at most he can bully newcomers. If the force behind the other party is bigger, he can't afford to offend them.

He just wanted to make some money, and he hadn't thought about anything else.

"To be honest, I have plenty of Faris, but I don't have much on me. How about I give you this crystal card? You can use it to claim 90 Faris at the guild."

"90 faris?"

Hearing such a large sum of money, Walter almost drooled.

However, after seeing the clan mark on the crystal card in Cao Ye's hand, the profile of the Valkyrie bordered with gold jewelry, this pattern was familiar to all the adventurers in Orario, especially these rogue adventurers.

After all, all the gangsters have some self-awareness. They will only bully those who are weaker than them, and will not provoke those they cannot afford to offend.

In Orario, Freya's clan, as one of the two kings, is definitely at the top of the pyramid among all the clans.

Holding such a crystal card meant that even if the other party was not a member of Freya's family, he had a close relationship with them.

They didn't know the function of the crystal card, but something that looked so valuable couldn't be simple.

If they provoke Freya's family, not to mention the two level 1 adventurers, even if the entire Soma family were involved, they would not be enough.

"Ala, 'friend', what's with that expression on your face? Why did it become so ugly?"

"you you--"

Looking at Cao Ye, Walter stuttered and couldn't speak clearly.

"Oh, sorry, I'm so sorry that you saw it, blame me~ blame me~"

At this time, Cao Ye looked at the pattern on the front of the crystal card in his hand, and said with great regret, his face full of self-blame.

In this situation, if someone who didn't know saw it, they would think that Cao Ye really did something wrong.

As an adventurer at the bottom of Orario, Walter is naturally a bully who only cares about the weak and fears the strong. He cannot afford to provoke the huge Freya family.

However, as an orc, he has a bad temper and can be said to be very irritable and easily angered.

Even if this young master with skinny arms and legs was killed, no one would know that he did it. After all, this is Orario, and people die every day.

Kill him, steal the things, and then you can get a huge sum of money like 90, which is definitely a sure win.

Thinking of this, Walter's gaze towards Cao Ye changed quietly.

The original greed began to be mixed with a hint of murderous intent. The provocation had already been done, so in order to nip this trouble in the bud, he killed him directly.

"Want to kill me?"

Looking at the change in Walter's eyes, Cao Ye smiled. He had seen such eyes and such a gaze many times.

In the dungeon, he encountered other adventurers several times. Because he was too weak, they all wanted to take his things, or even kill him to silence him.

However, they did not expect that although Cao Ye was weak in strength, he had an extremely strong physique and finally succeeded in counterattacking.

Looking back, he was stabbed in the abdomen by an adventurer. In the end, he pretended to be dead and tricked the adventurer into coming closer to search his belongings, then he sneaked up and stabbed his throat.

The gushing blood directly dyed his body red; his hair, eyes, nose, and even mouth were all covered in blood.

That time, he vomited so much that he almost vomited stomach acid.

This was his first time killing someone, and it took Cao Ye several days to recover from the physical and psychological discomfort.

As the saying goes, all things are difficult at the beginning. There are only zero times and countless times of things. After the first time, there will be a second time, a third time, and so on.

He also changed little by little, discarding his cowardice and timidity and starting to do whatever it takes to survive.

This city will "eat people", and in order to avoid being eaten, Cao Ye has made up his mind to "eat" other people.

Looking at Cao Ye, whose expression was calm and whose emotions did not change, Walter's heart began to beat.

He can't be a 'fishing enforcement', looking at his appearance, could he be a powerful adventurer?

It's no wonder that he was afraid and thought too much. After all, in Orario, Freya's family was synonymous with strength. Although they were rare, no one walking outside was weak.

But on the other side, Jared had quietly sneaked up behind Cao Ye and approached cautiously.

He has a magic that can hide his body, which is very useful for sneak attacks.

Walter, who was originally a little nervous, was immediately happy when he saw Jared's position. Boy, I will let you know what it means to live a life worse than death.

Thinking of this, a cruel smile appeared on Walter's face.

Chapter 23: Beauty saves the hero!

'Boom—'

‘Boom——’

Just as the danger was about to come, Walter's face was almost wrinkled with laughter.

But suddenly, the unexpected attack fell on Walter and Jared who was preparing to attack Cao Ye from behind. The two were caught off guard and fell to the ground without any resistance.

This sudden change made Cao Ye, the guy who was conducting the "fishing enforcement", stunned for a moment.

"Are you OK?"

At this time, an elf wearing the 'Mistress of Plenty' work clothes appeared.

In one hand he held a bag of food, and in the other he held a blood-stained branch. Walter and Jared, who were standing beside him, had bruises on the back of their heads.

"You are……"

"Lyu Leon, we've met before, in 'The Mistress of Plenty'."

"It's you, the beautiful elf girl."

"Hmm~"

Looking at Cao Ye, Liu nodded. She also saw Cao Ye strolling on the street by coincidence.

Then she discovered Wald and Jared following behind her, and out of her old belief in "justice", she took action.

She is no longer a member of the righteous family, nor is she worthy of calling herself "righteous".

However, when it was about to happen in front of her, she couldn't help but take action, as a way of paying for her past "sins".

"Thank you so much for what happened today~"

Although I didn't need it, the other person did save me, so it's only right and reasonable to say thank you.

"Although this place is better than other neighborhoods, it's not a good idea to just go to some deserted place. This Orario is not as glamorous as it looks."

"I see."

In response to Liu's warning, Cao Ye said he understood, after all, the other person meant well.

However, as a vengeful person, Cao Ye would not let go of these two guys who wanted to kill him.

To cut the grass, you must remove it at its roots. This is the truth that Cao Ye believes in. He doesn't want to fall into the gutter because of them in the future.

As the saying goes, little devils are difficult to deal with. If this little guy really wants to take revenge on you, even if he can't hurt you, he will at least make you sick. Besides, this Orario is not peaceful either. So, in order to prevent any unexpected events from happening, it is better to deal with it cleanly.

"Looking at you like this, you haven't been in Orario for long, I'll take you out."

"Thank you so much~"

Cao Ye hurriedly followed, but when passing by Walter and Jared, a mass of black substance fell down.

Soon, Cao Ye and Liu disappeared at the end of the street.

‘Gulu——’

On the ground, the black substance placed by Cao Ye began to expand.
