"I thought …"
Karina, who had fully recovered and sorted out everything, tried her best to choose her words carefully. She knew that there was no way she could make this man stay here. Since that day when he thought they were all dead, something about this man had changed forever.
No, it would be more accurate to say that something had awakened in this man's body.
"… You will stay here for a while, but I really didn't expect you to leave the next day."
After she finished speaking, she sighed and felt a wave of despair towards her poor language ability. Because of the troublesome things that happened between her and this man, she had always liked to talk to him in a mocking and teasing tone. Moreover, this man's indulgent attitude towards her made her feel happy and relaxed when she lost her composure in front of this man.
"I can't help it. After all, I still have very important things to do, and …"
Li Ke poured a glass of milk into his mouth, then pointed his right thumb at a bounty hunter who was sleeping soundly behind him. The bounty hunter was the one who had a very high degree of recovery. It was just that his face was a little fierce, and he looked like a guy who would eat a child.
"My bounty is still here."
His words made Karina and Alice laugh, especially Alice, who was leaning her body on Li Ke. When she laughed, her chest shook, and from time to time, she would bump into Li Ke's arm with her own movements. This made Karina a little angry, but she was also a little helpless.
After all, she was Karina's benefactor, and she was also a member of the Bouvier Family who had helped Li Ke a lot.
But …
"It's okay. If you want to get rid of the bounty, isn't there a better way?"
Alice hugged Li Ke's arm and placed it between her breasts. Karina couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she saw this. However, she knew that she was in no position to reprimand him. In fact, she was also very curious. How did Li Ke hook up with the second daughter of the Bouvier Family? After all, she had a fiancé.
Yes, that included her fiancé. Her fiancé's entire family had perished in battle.
"Forget about it. After all, I already have a wife."
Li Ke wanted to pull his arm back, but the other party showed him a bright smile, which made him a little reluctant to refuse. After he said that, the other party showed a sly smile.
"Is this an excuse? An excuse to hurt a girl's heart. "
I really don't understand why you are pestering me.
Li Ke shook his head and did not answer the question. Then, he looked at the clock on the wall of the tavern. He found that it was time to buy the ticket. If he didn't leave now, he would be late.
"It's almost time. I have to go."
He pointed at the clock, then put on his hood and picked up the medal that Karina and Alice gave him. It was a certificate that allowed him to be called Reinhardt and not Li Ke. Then, under the strange gazes of the two women, he picked up Yatokus, who was wrapped in an anti-magic stone scabbard and an anti-magic stone chain.
Although the scenery in Demacia was good and the food was good, for Li Ke, he had to find a power to fight against the child-like Goddess. Otherwise, he would not be able to sleep well. Although he was now in a 'honeymoon period' with Yatoku and could be separated from him for a short period of time, the madness and loneliness that came from his dreams every night, as well as Yatoku's crazy spirit, made him understand one thing clearly.
After all, he and Yatokus would have to fight again.
If he couldn't stay in Freldrod, then naturally, he couldn't stay in Demacia.
"There will always be a time for separation in life. Besides, it's not like I'm not coming back."
He stood up, looked at the two women who stood up with him, and spread out his hands. After the two women looked at each other, Karina spoke to Li Ke.
"But we haven't repaid you yet."
She really wanted to do something, but Li Ke didn't give her time. With Li Ke's help, she could choose to retire. In fact, she wanted to do so, but she had to wait for the king to return. But unfortunately, Li Ke didn't give her enough time, nor did he give her a positive answer.
"Repaying a favor is too much for a friend … Alright, I'm leaving."
Li Ke waved his hand. He originally intended to ask Karina and the others to help form a caravan to trade in Freldrod, but the recent news of Freldrod attacking the frontier fortress walls and looting the frontier towns made him unable to say anything. And in fact, he didn't intend to expose Aichy too much to the Demacians. After all, although they had a good relationship, they were enemies.
"Then, will you come back?"
Karina couldn't help but ask.
"Maybe."
Li Ke didn't answer directly. After that, he turned around and walked out of the tavern. As soon as he opened the door, he saw the humid air of the harbor of Demacia, as well as the voices of the sailors and labourers. The ship that was going to take him to Pirtwof was unloading goods at the harbor and waiting for passengers to arrive. The two women who followed him out of the harbor naturally attracted the attention of the people, but the badges on their bodies made all the possible troubles disappear.
But when Li Ke approached this ship named 'Lady', his eyes caught sight of a red-haired woman with two astonishingly large pistols strapped to her waist. Her breasts were also astonishingly large. This woman was leaning against the ship's railing while gazing at the clouds in the sky. Occasionally, she would raise her head and gulp down a mouthful of rum. From Li Ke's experience, this woman must be quite skilled, and she must have a lot of worries.
However, it was none of his business.
"Then you better come back."
Just as Li Ke was about to step on the ship, Karina's voice sounded behind him, which made Li Ke turn around. Karina also mustered up her courage, and for the first time, she did something that didn't fit her character setting.
"You haven't brought me to see the dandelions."
She tried her best to keep her voice calm, and Alice, who was beside her, added softly.
"My sword isn't that easy to take."
Li Ke could only return a smile. He waved goodbye to them and little Lux who was hiding in the crowd. Then, he turned around and walked towards the cabin.
But just as he was about to enter the cabin, the woman with the big pistol spoke.
"You are really popular."
However, Li Ke only smiled and did not pay attention to it.
After all … they were just passersby.
