192. The Deep Alley Bar
Ian, after saying this, changed her clothes and walked out of the house. She leaped onto the roof and flew.
Her mind was in a mess, and she could only release her emotions in this way.
Suddenly it started to rain. Ian’s long hair, after her transformation, clung to her delicate body. She casually found an abandoned eave and planned to take shelter from the rain.
However, just then, she slightly raised her head and, in a daze, saw a few people in black standing on the roof of the building opposite her.
—It was the same people in black who had been following her last time!
Ian quickly stood up and leaped.
“You bastards!”
Her anger erupted at this moment, as if she were going to vent all the helplessness of this period on these people in black.
Unfortunately, her movements had become slow due to fatigue, and she had made a huge mistake on her first jump. She hadn’t jumped onto the roof, but had accidentally flown to the wall on the other side.
If it weren’t for her regaining her sanity in an instant, this wall would have been instantly shattered.
The wings behind Ian appeared again, and then she used her inertia to rush onto the roof, but at this time, the people in black were already gone.
Her eyes instantly locked onto the street a hundred meters away. Those were the people in black who were running away!
“Stop! Don’t run!”
She spread her wings and chased after them.
In the past, if she had locked onto the location of these trackers, it would have been easy to catch up with them.
Now, because she had been fighting and had been in her second form for too long, and in addition, she was in a bad mood, it was very easy to lose them.
However, she still struggled to keep up and engaged in a chase with this group of people in black.
From the street to the bustling district, passing by the busy pedestrians in the early morning, and then to another quiet little path, and then to the chamber of commerce and the new adventurer’s association… a total of more than an hour.
She didn’t know if it was Ian’s illusion, but during the chase, these people in black could sometimes dodge her magic attacks, but most of the time they were very clumsy.
It was as if they were teasing her with a speed that was neither fast nor slow.
It was said that some hunters would use this characteristic, and when the chaser was exhausted, they would turn around and take her down, eating her clean…
So, after Ian discovered that she had completely lost her strength, she gave up the pursuit. Now she could barely feel the existence of her legs.
This street was deserted, with only a few scattered passersby. She casually found a long bench and sat down, beginning to use magic to dry the rainwater on her body.
When she discovered that her magic power was about to be depleted, she began to regret why she hadn’t come out wearing a rainproof cloak.
Why hadn’t she stayed at home and slept honestly, but had instead run away from a girl, and had even vented her anger and run out?
Ian couldn’t believe it.
However, the good news was that she suddenly saw a small dark alley on the side of the street. She activated her magic vision and discovered that there was actually a bar inside.
A few years ago, she had been to similar remote areas. The bars there were basically shelters for luxury and debauchery, and the air was full of a rotten smell, which was suffocating… However, now Ian just wanted to numb her nerves with alcohol.
She used her last bit of strength to walk into the small alley. Ian’s pants were torn by a sharp protrusion on the wall, revealing her fair skin, which was a little embarrassing, but Ian couldn’t care so much.
Pushing open the old main door, a rich fruity and alcoholic aroma washed over her.
In such a remote and distant place, there was actually such a high-quality bar.
The bartender had a head of beautiful, wavy blue hair, a standard oval face, her face excessively fair, and her smile was sunny and cute.
Ian thought she was seeing an illusion. In fact, all the customers in the entire bar were beautiful girls.
Before Ian had entered the bar, she could vaguely hear the bartender chatting with a cute blonde girl beside her.
“Little sister, I met my great-great-great-grandson last time. It’s so nostalgic. I thought my family’s bloodline had disappeared~”
What a strange topic.
She swayed to the bar, placed a gold coin on the table, and tried her best to maintain her last bit of reason:
“Give me some beer. Let me drink until I’m drunk.”
Her action clearly scared the bartender, and of course, the blonde girl beside her.
Ian discovered that at this moment, everyone in the entire bar had fallen silent and was staring at her.
Was it because her clothes were a little dirty?
Just as Ian was about to leave, the bartender said with a sweet smile, “No problem, miss. But our drinks are free. You can drink as much as you want.”
“Please sit wherever you like. I’ll serve you.”
“Our wine is very intoxicating, miss. You should drink in moderation. Be careful not to be led astray by a bad daughter.”
Ian nodded. She couldn’t care so much and sat directly in the very center of the bar.
There were no windows here, and of course, even if there were, the moonlight wouldn’t be able to shine through here, so the dim light source above her head was the only one in the bar.
Soon, the beautiful bartender brought a large glass of draft beer.
After a soft thank you, Ian wiped the corner of her mouth and drank the draft beer in one gulp.
She felt a little drunk, but it wasn’t enough.
And Ian felt that she wouldn’t be led astray, but why was it a bad woman? Was it because this bar only had girls drinking?
Just then, Ian remembered that she hadn’t yet deactivated her second form. It was normal to scare the commoners.
Soon, the second glass came.
This time, Ian still drank it in one gulp, but this time, it was a little more difficult.
The wine was very satisfying. Just as the bartender had said, she didn’t know how this wine was brewed, but the alcohol content was very high.
Seeing a room full of girls, she had originally thought that they only sold drinks here.
The third glass.
This time, Ian drank half of it and suddenly remembered Beth’s apologetic expression.
Her charming eyes were full of guilt, not contrived, but all of her trust and regret for her were expressed.
Did Beth really like me?
Wasn’t it that kind of friendship?
Yes, it was precisely because I wasn’t sure about this that I ran out…
…
The fourth glass.
…
Half an hour later, a girl who had fallen asleep from drunkenness was added to the center of the bar.
“She has a very fragrant scent on her… Boss, can I enjoy her? Just as a punishment for casually breaking into a succubus bar, I’ll make her feel comfortable.”
Suddenly, a red-haired girl sitting not far away crossed her legs. If there were ordinary humans here, they would discover that she was actually the “guard commander” of Lekadis.
Another purple-haired young woman raised her eyebrows and smiled, putting down her wine glass: “This kind of downcast girl, wouldn’t it be better to just turn her into one of us? And besides, she has a lot of resentment but didn’t throw a drunken fit. It must be to avoid disturbing us, right? So kind, she must be easy to bully.”
“Her lips are so cute~”
“Then you have to be careful. This young lady, have you seen her eyes? This might be a legendary mixed-blood… be careful not to be killed in return~”
The atmosphere in the bar became lively.
Soon, the bartender’s gentle cough made the whole hall quiet down.
“Take her to a room and let her sleep. You’d better not touch her.”
“Why?” a disappointed voice soon came.
“That’s right, such a cute girl. As a representative of an adult, how can you be so blind~” a certain girl said jokingly.
The bartender chuckled wryly:
“She is Lord Beth’s designated prey. Don’t ruin her rare love, or you’ll be punished.”
