"Well then, it's a deal …"
After a moment, Amethyst looked at Reemilia with a smile and pulled Dark Night to her side. "In order to show the dignity of the owner of the Red Fiend, I'll be taking Dark Night away for the time being. Work hard during this period. I believe in you, Remy."
Seeing that Dark Night, who was supposed to stay by her side, was now even closer to the hateful Octopus Zi, Remilia inexplicably felt a bit unhappy. She suddenly felt somewhat hesitant.
Just as Amethyst said, in order to show her dignity, she made a bet with Dark Night and promised to let Dark Night leave the Red Fiend for half a month. If the Red Fiend didn't collapse during this half a month, it would prove that she, Reemilia, was not a useless person but the dignified owner of the Red Fiend!
Of course, after coming back to her senses, Reemilia suddenly felt that she had been goaded into action.
"Miss, is it really okay?" Dark Night saw the hesitation on Reemilia's face and couldn't help but ask.
"Ah — of course it's okay!" Reemilia immediately put her hands on her hips. Even if there was a problem, after hearing Dark Night's tone, it had to be okay. Otherwise, wouldn't Amethyst completely look down on her … Hmph, she would never admit that she had been goaded into action!
Thus, Reemilia put on a confident expression and smiled. "Who do you think I am? I'm the strongest vampire, Reemilia Scarlet. This kind of thing is a piece of cake for me. So, Dark Night, don't worry and go. Just treat it as relaxing. "
"Alright then." Dark Night nodded. Although she could tell that Reemilia was forcing herself, based on her understanding of her master, she knew that it was impossible for her to take back her words. Anyway, it was only half a month and she wasn't in the Red Fiend, so … nothing should happen, right?
"Well then, I'll go pack up first." Dark Night then left respectfully.
As expected of a carefree maid. Although she said she was going to pack up, it only took her a few minutes. Her appearance and attire didn't change at all.
"Wait a moment." Just as Amethyst was about to leave with Dark Night, she suddenly thought of something. She stopped them and smiled coldly at Amethyst. "I almost forgot. Tell Tang Ritian that … the next time we meet, I'll teach him a lesson!"
Amethyst smiled. "Don't worry, I'll definitely bring it."
Very soon, Dark Night was brought to Yagumo's home. Although she had lived in Fantasy Village for many years and had a deep understanding of the forces and monsters here, it was even Dark Night's first time coming to Yagumo's home. However, she was not curious and only asked, "Tang Ritian didn't say that, but you, right?"
"That's your fault, Dark Night." Amethyst pretended to be aggrieved. "I might be talking behind someone's back …"
"That's true. After all, you are …"
"I only speak ill of people to their faces."
Dark Night: "…"
'Alright, I shouldn't have overestimated Amethyst's moral integrity.'
Dark Night sighed inwardly and ignored Amethyst's moral integrity. She asked directly, "So, what do you want me to do by deliberately provoking Miss to let me leave the Red Fiend Tavern? If you're just here to visit Yagumo's home, you shouldn't be that bored, right? "
Moreover, her relationship with Amethyst wasn't so close that they would visit each other's home.
"Nothing much. You already know about the chatroom, right?" Amethyst said as she walked to her room and sat down in front of the computer.
"Of course."
"That's simple. It's actually not a big deal. Tang Ritian has a mission and needs a reliable helper, so he looked for you."
"Why me?" Dark Night was puzzled. "Can't you do it?"
"I can't."
Ba Yunzi gave a brief explanation of the interference value and specifically pointed out that she had been chosen out of many candidates.
Dark Night suddenly understood, but she still had some doubts. "Even if you can't go because of your interference value, it's not like I have to do it. Others … such as Ling Meng, she's so free. I'm sure she'd be happy to do it."
"That guy can't do it. Absolutely not!" Amethyst shook her head immediately. "This mission is mainly about infiltration and investigation. Combat is only carried out when it's unavoidable, so combat strength is secondary. After thinking about it, the most suitable person for this mission is you."
Amethyst's words were exactly what Tang Hao was thinking. Since they had come to Fantasy Village to get external help, the combat strength requirement could be completely ignored. After all, most of the people on the list had the ability to fight against the guardians. As for Ling Meng, there was no need to mention her. She was a genius in the truest sense. Even without the protection of the big barrier, her strength was still top-notch.
But you want Ling Meng to infiltrate and investigate? Isn't this a joke!
Ling Meng was a violent city enforcement officer. Unparalleled was the most suitable for her. And with her personality, Tang Hao might not be able to suppress her. Once she arrived in that world, she would probably be lured away by all kinds of delicacies and the like.
"Okay." After listening to Amethyst's explanation, Dark Night dispelled the last of her doubts. Even if she didn't need it and didn't want it, the feeling of being recognized was still quite good.
"But there's one thing I have to make clear in advance. Although combat needs to be avoided as much as possible, there are many powerful masters in that world. If a battle really breaks out, even you may be in danger."
"Dangerous …" Dark Night suddenly smiled. "I don't think there's anything more dangerous than the young lady's willful request."
"That's true. Then, you wait for a while."
With that said, Amethyst tapped on the keyboard and contacted Tang Hao.
…
Fantasy Village's Red Devil Tavern.
As Dark Night left.
One hour later … nothing happened.
Two hours later … nothing happened.
Three hours later …
It wasn't until evening when Reemilia began to feel a little depressed. The first thing she felt was boredom. Although there were many people living in the Red Fiend Tavern, the sprites who served as decorations could not be used as conversation partners. In the past, when Dark Night accompanied her to admire the flowers and chat, she didn't feel lonely. Now that Dark Night was gone, she suddenly felt bored.
Then, she decided to talk to Patchouli. However, when she arrived at the library, she didn't see Patchouli at all. She only saw the little demon who was buried under countless books. She probably accidentally knocked over the bookshelves when she was tidying up.
"Oh, Patchouli isn't here either."
Only then did Reemilia remember that Patchouli had left for a while and hadn't returned yet.
After walking around for a while, the sky gradually darkened. Reemilia suddenly felt a little hungry.
"Meiling, Meiling!" Unable to wait any longer, Reemilia called out loudly.
Hong Meiling quickly rushed in. "Young Lady, are you looking for me?"
Although she was full of energy, she still had a sleepy look on her face, as if she had just woken up.
Reemilia pursed her lips, temporarily ignoring the fact that she was slacking off and sleeping at work. She asked, "Where's dinner?"
"Uh … that, Young Lady … I'm a laborer …"
"I know you're a laborer, but now that Dark Night has left, is there a problem with you acting as a cook?"
"Young Lady, what you're saying …" Hong Meiling suddenly felt like crying. She felt that being a laborer was more relaxing and that she could slack off at any time, which was why she had applied to be a laborer at the Red Fiend Tavern. Why did she have to be a cook in the end? Did she get a raise?
Actually, it didn't matter if she got a raise or not. The problem was that she didn't know how to cook at all!
"How can you not even know how to cook? You're too useless!" Reemilia scolded.
You speak as if you know how to cook … Hong Meiling thought to herself. Of course, she didn't dare to talk back on the surface. After all, this was her superior's superior.
"Young Lady, Sister Meiling, it's time for dinner."
Just as the two of them were in a deadlock, unsure of what to do next, a young voice suddenly floated over. The two of them immediately turned their heads to look, only to see a small figure slowly pushing a dining cart towards them.
"Eh, Xiao Ying, this … did you make this?" Hong Meiling looked at the steaming food on the dining cart and couldn't help but ask in surprise.
Xiao Ying smiled and nodded, "Yes, Sister Dark Night went to the school to find me during the day. She also left food in the kitchen for half a month. I learned a little from her before, so I just have to follow her instructions … However, it's also my first time making this, so it might not taste very good."
"Eh, it's okay. The taste doesn't matter. After all, we don't know how to cook yet … Young Lady, you can eat now." Hong Meiling took the food from the dining cart and quickly called out to Reemilia.
Reemilia frowned slightly, pulled Hong Meiling over, and asked softly, "Meiling, how old are you?"
"Uh … I don't know, but I shouldn't be as old as you, Young Lady."
Reemilia immediately glared at her, and then said awkwardly, "Let's say you're 501 years old, and I'm a 500-year-old vampire. In the end, our ages add up to four digits, and yet we need a six-year-old girl to take care of our meals. Isn't that a little inappropriate?"
Hong Meiling was stunned with her mouth open, and after a moment, she rolled her eyes and said, "Young Lady, you're the owner of the Red Magic Restaurant. This is the treatment you deserve."
"Hmm …"
Reemilia was inwardly conflicted. Then, Xiao Ying brought over another plate, "Also, I've prepared Sister Fran's portion."
Slap!
Reemilia immediately slapped the back of Hong Meiling's hand that was about to reach for the chicken drumstick, and glared at her, "What are you eating? Bring Fran's portion over first!"
"Why me?"
"Nonsense, are you going to let Xiao Ying deliver it? That's too dangerous. "
Hong Meiling immediately burst into tears.
You also know that delivering food to the Second Lady is a dangerous job, but what about me? Who's going to guarantee my safety?
