Outer city of the Dark Shadow's capital, the most prosperous South Street.
Chen Rui and Kia strolled leisurely. Chen Rui was still wearing the mechanic costume, but many people had recognized that he was "Arthur" who amazed everyone in the mechanic contest and won the capital genius, Savice's hands in a bet. No matter which field it was, the Demon Realm always respected the strong. The loser was not worthy of sympathy, especially the arrogant Savice. Many people showed considerable respect to Chen Rui.
Of course, there were many high-ranking royal families in the capital. In the eyes of these people, this was just a mechanic contest after all, not a master contest. Chen Rui, who had no background, was considered a genius with a little potential, but that was all. He didn't show any particular enthusiasm. Instead, Master Xhosa from the Mechanic Association threw an olive branch to Chen Rui and offered to accept him as an apprentice. Chen Rui didn't directly refuse the kindness, but he tactfully said that he would reply after the final was over.
Kia, who was next to Chen Rui, attracted a lot of amazing gazes. The succubus in a long dress showed her amazing temperament and beauty. With a confident smile on her face, she looked like a noble lady. The charm of the succubus was undoubtedly revealed. Compared with the original maid costume, she had her own style.
"After walking around for so long, you must be hungry. This is not bad. Fill your stomach first. We'll find a restaurant later. "Chen Rui held a skewer of candied haws which was a snack in the capital.
Compared with the other two empires, the royal family of the Shadow Empire paid more attention to life and enjoyment. Driven by this hobby, the capital had a rich variety of goods and food. There were also many places for consumption.
Kia took the skewer of meatballs, took a bite and nodded with a smile. The two then came to a high-end restaurant and asked for a quiet private room. They ordered a few dishes and a bottle of wine and ate slowly.
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Chen Rui patted his stomach in satisfaction. "What a pleasant life …"
Kia covered her mouth and smiled. "I feel that since Lord Arthur came, everything seems to have become simpler. I'm just an extra assistant. It'd be great if all the missions in the future could be as easy as this. "
"If you really want, I can ask Her Royal Highness to take you over. You can follow me from now on." Chen Rui said disapprovingly, "Anyway, I don't belong to the Dark Moon. If I make a request at this critical time, she won't refuse."
Kia looked surprised, "Sir Arthur is not from the Dark Moon?"
Sure enough, he was beginning to probe! Chen Rui had deliberately led Kia into this mode of thinking. He wanted to take the initiative so that he could further investigate her background.
"Of course not." Chen Rui replied without hesitation, "She used three good things in exchange for my action this time. Once the Custer Family's matter is over, I will have nothing to do with her anymore."
Kia didn't have much doubt about these words because she had been in the Dark Moon for several years. She knew a lot of information, but she had never heard that Princess Royal had such a top-notch mechanic. If his level really surpassed Robert, then it was likely that he was only a hair's breadth away from master.
"I don't dare to have such extravagant hopes." Kia hesitated slightly and shook her head. "Besides, my current ownership belongs to the sheriff of the Dark Moon."
"That useless human who has been in a coma due to illness?" Chen Rui deliberately said disdainfully. In fact, he hoped that Kia would say a few good things about that human. That was the mentality of a typical young man.
"He's not useless." Kia objected, which was rare. She looked like she was reminiscing, "He's just … a little silly and nice guy …"
Well, it's more or less a nice guy card. Do you think it's easy for me?
Chen Rui deliberately changed his tone and said, "I admit that I went a little overboard. Princess Royal showed me a few of his designs. His creativity is not bad. Let's not talk about this guy. As long as you're willing to follow me, leave the rest to me. "
"Why are you so nice to me?" Kia looked aggrieved, "Actually, you know that my physique is special. I can't serve any man."
"I'm the kind of person who … does things my own way. I'm a little overbearing. I like the people I like. As for the people I don't like, no matter how powerful they are, I will find a way to make them suffer. Savice is the best example."
In these words, Kia believed that "Arthur" was not fascinated by her, and then he dealt with Savice under her charm. Instead, he unreasonably attacked Savice directly and pulled her up from the edge of the fire pit. Not only that, in this mechanic contest, he also set up a trap to lure the capital's genius who had a master as his backer, completely destroying Savice's future. It was said that Savice's body was found in the suburbs shortly after the contest.
As "Arthur" said himself, overbearing, protective, ruthless, belonged to the type of person who did things his own way.
"If I really want a woman to serve me, as long as I ask Dior now, he can even get a woman more beautiful than you." Chen Rui said generously, "I just like you and I like you. I don't want you to serve me or anything. It's that simple."
Kia was shocked. She looked down, then she showed a charming smile, "So what does Sir Arthur want me to do?"
"I don't like your smile. It's fake." Chen Rui shook his head, "I heard from Jía that you were put on a magic ring. Don't worry, I hate using this to control women. I'm a mechanic, so I can try to help you get rid of the magic ring. If you don't like me, you can also leave me and live freely. I'm such a person. "
This trick was actually to advance by retreating. If he really figured out Kia's intention, it wasn't entirely a lie to let her go. Although this succubus was very tempting, he didn't like to keep a time bomb around.
"Freedom?" It seemed to be the first time Kia met such a man who was willing to help her just because he liked her and had no other intentions.
The succubus was in a trance for a moment, and her smile suddenly became a little bitter. Counting the days in the Dark Moon, Chen Rui had been with her for a long time, but it was the first time he saw such a bitter smile.
Perhaps under the usual charm, there is an unspeakable bitterness?
Chen Rui's mind moved. He stood up and walked over. He held her hand, but he didn't make any excessive movements. Instead, he held the black bracelet, which was the Magic Forbidden Bracelet that could restrain magic power.
Chen Rui said affirmatively, "I'll help you get rid of this restraint now."
"No!" Kia retracted her hand as if she was shocked, "Don't get rid of it!"
"Why aren't you willing to remove the restraint?" Chen Rui said loudly with dissatisfaction. Fortunately, this expensive private room had a special magic soundproof circle. Otherwise, many people around would hear the roaring emperor's voice, "Do you still want to go back to the Dark Moon? You'd rather go back to be a lowly maid than want the freedom I give you? "
"Kia is originally a lowly maid." A trace of deep pain flashed through Kia's eyes, but her smile was more attractive, "Sir's kindness is purely a waste."
Although he couldn't open her mouth, Chen Rui had already obtained 3 relevant pieces of information.
1. Kia's actions can't be controlled by me. She must keep the magic ring and return to the Dark Moon.
2. Kia must have a corresponding mission in the Dark Moon that hasn't been completed yet. She must have other contacts.
3. Kia may have some difficulties, but she can't easily reveal them.
It's not bad if I can use persuasion to slowly elicit Kia's purpose. If it's really excusable, Chen Rui won't be stingy with his help.
At this moment, he suddenly showed a vigilant look. Although the room's soundproofing effect was good, it couldn't isolate the detection range of [Analytical Eyes].
Kia noticed that Chen Rui's expression was strange, so she cleverly didn't say anything. Chen Rui stood in front of her. At this moment, the door was slammed open, and a figure rushed in like lightning.
Chen Rui waved his hand, and the dark elf only felt that his speed suddenly slowed down. Before he could react, the dagger in his hand suddenly fell into the opponent's hand. Almost at the same time, he felt a pain in his heart. He was pierced by his own dagger.
After Chen Rui killed the dark elf at lightning speed, his right hand grabbed the air to the side, and he just happened to catch a Great Demon who teleported down. He directly lifted the Great Demon up. At the same time, he clenched his left fist and punched. A yellow light flashed, and a Great Demon's chest caved in with a fist mark. He fell straight down.
In the blink of an eye, 2 out of the 3 peak Higher Demon assassins were dead and 1 was injured. No, all 3 were dead. The Great Demon caught by Chen Rui saw that the situation wasn't right. Without waiting for the opponent to interrogate, he bit the poison sac in his teeth and died from the poison.
It seemed that these were strictly trained men of sacrifice. The person who sent the men of sacrifice might be Master Ultraman, who had a grudge against him in the contest, or a competitor. It could also be the Falamo couple.
Kia was an expert in magic. In her eyes, "Arthur" just used 2 kinds of earth magic, "Decelerate" and "Magic Flying Fist". They were all silent without any incantation, and his close combat ability was very strong. He instantly killed the 3 assassins.
Even if they were both at the peak of Higher Demon, there must be a clear difference in the combat power of the two professions, mechanics and assassins. However, the assassins were dead now, and the mechanics were safe and sound. It was very likely that this "Arthur"'s true strength had reached Demon King level, and he was a dual cultivator of strength and magic.
A mechanic at the peak of Demon King level was only a step away from the mechanic master. Unfortunately, these were still far from enough. Kia sighed softly, and her hand suddenly felt warm. She was held by Chen Rui.
"This place isn't safe. Let's go. You have no power now. If there are more troublesome assassins, I'm afraid it will affect you."
It was obviously a sentence of "afraid" assassins wanting to leave, but there was a faint warmth in Kia's heart. She didn't break away from his hand and let him lead her out.
The assassination was definitely done by someone with ulterior motives. Chen Rui didn't look for trouble with the restaurant. He just informed them to clean up the mess. He didn't stop with Kia and went all the way back to Dior's courtyard.
