Chapter 129 - Chapter 128: Sangiovese

Sultana actually called and invited Roy out for drinks.

Since his big sister was in such a good mood and even took the initiative to invite him for a drink, Roy knew she must have received some news.

"Of course, I'm free, but at my age, I might not be able to get into a bar."

Los Angeles wasn't like Waterfall Town; no one here would give Roy special treatment.

"I know a great bar, the location is very discreet, and I know the owner. He'll definitely let you in."

"Then tell me the address."

Half an hour later, Roy arrived in his second-hand yellow Chevrolet Camaro at the bar Sultana had mentioned.

The bar was located at the foot of the Hollywood Hills, an area where Los Angeles celebrities and the wealthy congregated. However, this bar, named Sangiovese, was very low-key.

There was no neon sign, the entrance was deep in a small alley, and there wasn't even a security guard at the door. The bar owner seemed completely uninterested in making money.

Roy hesitated for a long time before pushing open the door, worried he might have gone to the wrong place.

Fortunately, it did look like a bar inside after he opened the door, but there were very few customers, only a handful of people drinking.

"Roy, over here!"

Sultana had been watching the entrance and waved him over as soon as she saw him.

"Sultana, no wonder you seemed distracted when we were chatting earlier, you were meeting a handsome young man!"

A woman with deathly pale skin, wearing a classic white long dress, stood at the bar. She seemed completely captivated by Roy, but Sultana, who was also looking at Roy, didn't notice.

"Archina, don't joke around. We're just agent and informant!"

Sultana was a little embarrassed and used drinking to hide her emotional fluctuations.

Roy walked over to the bar and immediately saw the unusually tall, pale woman. She was really hard to miss.

You see, when Roy first transmigrated, he was 188 cm tall. Over the past few months, he had grown another two centimeters, making him 1.9 meters tall, which was quite tall.

But in front of this pale woman, he seemed rather small.

The pale woman was probably close to three meters tall. If she stood straight, her head would touch the ceiling. This height would make her a giant even in the NBA.

This was clearly not a normal human height; even gigantism rarely reached this level.

Moreover, people with gigantism have certain physical characteristics, none of which were visible on the pale woman.

And this person's appearance was really familiar, but Roy wasn't entirely sure yet.

"Sister Sultana, I'm here! And this is?"

"Archina Dimitrescu, she's the owner of this bar. Archina, this is Roy Black."

"Hello, Ms. Dimitrescu, it's an honor to meet you!"

Hearing this name, Roy already knew who the other person was, but his expression didn't change. He still reached out and shook hands with Archina.

[Discovered special character Archina Dimitrescu, you can absorb the power of fate to obtain rewards!]

Archina Dimitrescu, a popular character from Resident Evil Village, often referred to as Lady Dimitrescu or the Countess on Eastern online forums.

Roy had no idea how this person had ended up in this world.

"The honor is all mine, Mr. Black."

Archina's hand was very cold, without any body temperature, like a corpse. From this, it was clear she wasn't a normal human being.

However, as Roy withdrew his hand, he felt Archina lightly scratch his palm, as if hinting at something.

"Roy, Archina is also one of my informants. If you ever have any trouble in Los Angeles in the future, you can look for her. She has some influence in the underworld."

As soon as Sultana finished speaking, Archina immediately chimed in.

"Yes, Mr. Black, if you have time, you can come find me anytime. This is my personal contact information."

Archina handed Roy a black business card.

Perhaps Archina's enthusiasm was too much, making Sultana a little wary.

"Archina, I need to talk to Roy alone. Can you get us some good drinks?"

Archina winked and readily agreed.

"Of course, no problem!"

The giant woman walked aside to mix drinks for Roy and Sultana, leaving only Roy and Sultana at the bar.

"Archina is actually a vampire."

Sultana leaned close to Roy's ear and revealed Archina's identity.

"I could tell. Normal people don't have such pale skin and ice-cold body temperature."

Since demons were real, the existence of vampires or werewolves wasn't surprising.

"She immigrated here from Eastern Europe. The bureau reached an agreement with her, allowing her to open a bar here, but she also has to provide the bureau with intelligence about the vampire world."

So that's what it was all about. But Sultana's connections were quite wild too—one informant was a vampire, and the other was a half-demon.

At this moment, Archina came over with two cocktails.

"What secrets are you two whispering about?"

"Hehe, secrets are called secrets for a reason, naturally, they can't be told to others! What kind of cocktail is this?"

Sultana took two blood-red cocktails from Archina.

"Bloody Mary, but I've adjusted the recipe, the taste is a bit different from others. You can try it."

With that, Archina turned and left, not wanting to disturb Roy and Sultana.

Bloody Mary was quite a famous cocktail. Roy was curious what a Bloody Mary made by a vampire would taste like.

"Roy, let's toast!"

"Okay!"

Roy and Sultana clinked their glasses and then finished the Bloody Mary in their small glasses in one gulp.

The first sensation upon entering the mouth was an intense burning feeling. The liquid felt like fire, burning from the throat down to the esophagus and then to the stomach.

This was followed by a strong taste of blood, as if drinking real blood plasma.

A normal Bloody Mary doesn't taste like this; only the color resembles blood plasma. The taste is actually more like spicy, sour, salty, and fresh tomato juice.

But the Bloody Mary mixed by Archina not only looked like blood, but also tasted very much like it.

However, Roy was certain that there was no real blood added to this drink. He didn't know how Archina had managed it.

After drinking the strong cocktail, Sultana's face quickly turned red.

"Roy, I've already heard from Gerald. Thank you for this time!"

Sultana had indeed received some news and knew she was about to be reinstated.

"It's nothing, Sister Sultana, you've been so good to me, of course, I want to repay you!"

Roy believed that if Sultana had reported his demonic nature, she definitely wouldn't have been suspended.

Although Roy said that, a clear expression of emotion still appeared on Sultana's face, and she couldn't help but lean her head on Roy's shoulder.

"Roy, if only you were ten years older."

It seemed that under the combined influence of emotions and alcohol, Sultana was already feeling the urge to marry Roy.

However, this big sister was still not as open as the other big sister, Ilena, who hadn't considered Roy's age at all.

"If I were ten years older, I wouldn't be able to call you sister anymore!"

This made Sultana laugh again and playfully hit Roy's chest.

"Do you really want to call me sister that much?"

"Of course, because I grew up in a single-parent family and always longed for a gentle and beautiful older sister to take care of me!"

This was naturally a lie, and Sultana knew it very well.

"So you ended up taking your sister to bed?"

Regarding this point, Roy had to clarify.

"Wait a minute, you were the one who made the first move! How could a strong young man like me resist such temptation... Mmph!"

Sultana quickly covered Roy's mouth, stopping him from continuing.

"Don't say it!"

His big sister was still so easily embarrassed, it was really too cute, making him want to tease her.

As the alcohol gradually took effect, Sultana started to loosen up and no longer refused Roy's jokes.

The two chatted more and more enthusiastically, and later Archina also joined the conversation, along with her three young daughters.

These three were not Archina's real daughters. As a vampire, Archina was infertile.

Vampire lineages often referred to each other as parents and children. Archina and her daughters should have had this kind of relationship.

However, these three daughters looked very alike, like triplets. Could it be that they were actually three sisters who had been turned by Archina?

Happy times always fly by. It was almost midnight, and Sultana was already a bit delirious. Roy had also drunk a lot, and his head was spinning.

There was no way around it. Archina and her three daughters kept finding excuses to send Roy drinks. He was essentially facing a 1 vs 5 situation, and even with a physique of 46, he couldn't quite handle it.

"Sister Sultana, it's getting late. Should I take you home?"

Sultana's face was as red as a Fuji apple, delicate and beautiful beyond compare, making Roy's index finger twitch.

"Are you trying to do something naughty again?"

Sultana looked at Roy with hazy eyes.

"How could I? I've always been one to never take advantage of someone's vulnerability. I simply want to take Sister Sultana home!"

Roy looked completely righteous, almost as if he was about to swear on a bible.

Sultana rolled her eyes at him with great charm, then took out a stack of bills and placed them on the bar before turning and swaying towards the bar door.

"I don't believe you!"

Roy said goodbye to Archina and followed Sultana out.

Both of them were walking somewhat unsteadily, needing to support each other.

In this state, driving was obviously out of the question, so Roy was about to call a taxi.

But what Roy didn't expect was that when he walked out of the alley, he saw someone doing something to his Chevrolet Camaro.

It looked like they were trying to pick the lock?

The car thief was clearly a black man, naturally camouflaged in the night. If he hadn't been wearing a white vest, Roy wouldn't have seen him at all.

Roy's second-hand yellow Chevrolet Camaro, after a major overhaul, was as good as new, making it a target for car thieves.

"Damn it, what are you doing!"

Roy was furious. The Chevrolet Camaro was his beloved vehicle, and someone was trying to steal it.

Without hesitation, Roy immediately rushed towards his car. The car thief, hearing the noise, took off running.

"Roy, be careful!"

Losing Roy's support, Sultana immediately lost her balance and could only lean against the wall.

Roy turned and threw the car keys to Sultana.

"Sister Sultana, wait for me in the car, I'll be right back!"

With the alcohol taking effect, Roy's emotions were clearly a bit unstable. He only wanted to catch this car thief and teach him a good lesson.

However, because he was a bit drunk, Roy's running speed was rather poor, and he was running crookedly, unable to run in a straight line.

Fortunately, his agility of 31 still allowed Roy to keep up with the black car thief.

The black car thief, seeing this situation, became very scared and quickened his pace, rushing into the subway station.

It was the last train of the night, and a large group of tired office workers were coming out of the subway station. The crowd was very dense, making it the perfect place to escape.

However, Roy could sense the black car thief's fear, so hiding in the crowd wouldn't help him.

Helplessly, the black car thief could only force his way through the ticket gate. The subway staff didn't have time to stop him, and the black car thief rushed through.

Roy originally wanted to imitate the black car thief, but by this time, the subway staff was prepared and directly stopped him.

Helplessly, Roy could only take out a $100 bill from his inventory and hand it to the subway staff.

"Here! This is my ticket!"

With that, Roy continued to chase after the black car thief.

Just at this moment, the last subway train happened to be stopped at the platform. The black car thief quickly rushed onto the train.

Looking back outside, the black car thief finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he could rest for a bit.

However, before the black car thief could catch his breath, he saw Roy get on the subway at the last possible moment, although not in the same car as him.

The main reason was that Roy was afraid the subway would leave, so he directly got on the nearest car.

As it turned out, this choice was correct. If he had been even two or three seconds slower, Roy might not have been able to get on the train.

"Fuck!"

The black car thief cursed and then ran towards the front of the train.

It was the last subway train, and there were hardly any passengers in the cars. Roy swayed as he walked towards the sensed emotion of fear.

Roy was getting closer and closer, and the next stop wouldn't arrive for a while. The black car thief gritted his teeth and pulled out a folding knife, preparing to fight Roy.

"You, you stay back!"

Finally, Roy appeared in the last car. After chasing him for several kilometers, Roy wasn't even panting, making the black car thief realize that his pursuer was a tough guy. But at this moment, he could only frantically wave the folding knife, trying to intimidate Roy.

If this guy knew Roy's combat power, he probably would have regretted trying to steal Roy's car.

"Kid, you can really run! Keep running!"

"Don't force me! Or I don't know what I'll do!"

Roy cracked his knuckles and walked towards the black car thief, a sinister smile on his face.

"I'd like to see what you can do!"

Just at this moment, the lights in the car suddenly went out.
