Chapter 190: Cheap Rental House
In a two-story rental house, Seraph sits gazing at the reddish-yellow sun. Orange light streams through the balcony.
The sun is half-hidden by clouds. The clouds obscuring the sun resemble the skulls of people.
Outside, on the street, streetlights fill the streets, and the sounds of people chattering intermittently.
Footsteps are everywhere. From a high angle, you can see the number of people moving around.
The sound of people beckoning customers.
"Come on in, come on in. At night like this, you should buy candy. Go to the dark side."
A child, holding hands with his mother, both expresses their desire to buy candy on sticks, shaped like animals, similar to candy molds made by craftsmen.
Seraph sits quietly, gazing at the sky.
The sound of footsteps coming up to the Seraph's room.
He stops at the door.
The familiar sound of someone who had just parted ways, now meeting again.
The sound of a door being pushed open. "Crack! Crack!"
"Why won't the door open? Old woman, give me the key! I can't open the door!"
Media's voice came from behind the door.
The old woman, upon hearing Medea's words, walked up to the second floor and handed Medea the key.
"One word, old woman, two words, old woman. How old do you think I am?"
Media glared at the old woman in the hallway. "Do you want me to call you little girl?"
The old woman slapped Medea's head. Smack!
The old woman didn't use much force.
"You're still the same old woman. Why are you a witch? That's the right word for you."
Media rubbed her head slightly. "You like to bully children. You're not mature at all. I'm the great Medea, you know. Show me some respect, okay?"
Media stood with her hands on her hips. With a cat doll in her hand.
"What's so great about this? Nonsense. Your hearing is starting to go awry. Your training has made life so confusing. At least get rid of that overconfidence. Things will be easier."
Media placed a hand on her chin slightly. "If I don't do this all the time, I'll have nothing to do. This is my strength."
"That's true. But what about that Li Wen? He's not playing around?"
Media pretended to think, picked up the cat doll, shook it, and brought her ear close to its mouth.
"Hmm. Hmm. Hmm. I get it. That's how it is."
Media moved the doll away. "Big Cat," she said, "as I was about to stomp on Li Wen.
At one point, he secretly glanced at Seraph.
Plus, if you don't look closely, that Li Wen's bones are as hard as anything. No, I should say Li Wen's skin.
It's so hard, no matter how much force she uses, there's no sign of injury.
My left leg even has a slight fracture. You know what? "
Medea grabbed her left leg and rubbed it back and forth to soothe the pain.
The old woman closed her eyes and thought for a moment. "Don't mess with that guy. He's not weak.
He can fight you. He's skilled. Just try to stay away."
Medea smiled slightly. "What a shame. I didn't have time to use my full fighting ability, but I had to flee instead."
Medea picked up the key and opened the door to the room. The door opened.
Medea looked a little confused. How did the blonde boy sitting on the balcony...
He got here? "Huh!? How did he get here?" "
Medea's head tilted slightly to see Seraph, who had turned to look at the open door.
"The sun is so beautiful. Care to see this?"
Medea smiled. "You're dead, you stalker?"
Medea lunged forward, ready to leap and kick Seraph.
Phew!
In no time, the old woman's right hand grabbed Medea's collar. Phew!
The old woman pulled Medea back, stopping her from doing anything foolish.
Medea's cry was a resounding "Ack!"
Medea turned to look at the old woman, her face pouting, her cheeks puffed out. "What are you trying to do? This is a clear sign of hostility. Let's slaughter the stalker."
The old woman stopped pulling Medea and stood in front of Medea.
"That's interesting, little one. I can't sense your presence at all. How could you?"
Seraph stood up and bowed her head in apology. Tell them not to make a big deal out of it yet.
"I didn't do anything. I was just looking at the sky. I didn't do anything."
The old woman nodded. "Then why did you come here? Is there something you want from us two?"
Seraph looked up. "It seems like a misunderstanding. I came here before you two, so I think the staff thought Medea and I
were acquaintances, so they gave us this house to stay in."
There might be a slight misunderstanding, but it's okay. I'll go talk to the staff.
They asked me to find a room for rent. I won't touch this place much, so please use it as you please.
Then I'll excuse myself."
Seraph walked towards the door. The old woman moved aside for Medea.
But Medea stood in her way. "Old woman, can I trust you? I think we should arrest this guy and ask him questions."
The old woman pulled Medea's arm.
Media was shooed away from the door. "You're delirious now." This kid's soul wasn't just separated, his mind was also being pulled. How low is his ability?
Media made a threatening face. "Don't let me see you again, or you'll die."
Seraph walked down the stairs. It didn't take him long to get out of the house.
Seraph was relieved. [Almost there. Was fate playing a trick?]
Seraph headed towards the Mitik clothing store to find a room.
Along the way, he saw a large number of people in yellow suits from the Lanna Academy walking around. Everywhere he looked, there were only Lanna Academy members.
Everyone was looking at things. The Lanna Academy members carried swords at all times to defend themselves.
Seraph glanced around briefly, then lost interest.
The crowd was still packed. It didn't take long for Seraph to arrive at the Mitik clothing store.
Seraph arrived and saw the receptionist. At the counter, a young woman was waiting for customers.
It was the night shift.
Seraph walked up to the counter.
"Welcome, sir. Do you need anything?"
Seraph placed the key to the rental house on the counter.
"There was a slight misunderstanding. The special room belongs to me and a child. We don't know each other. If possible, please find me a new room. Any room is fine."
The employee looked at the special room key and immediately recognized it. "I'm sorry. I'll find it for you right away."
The employee quickly bowed his head and apologized in a hurry for the misunderstanding.
He then quickly picked up a book and hurriedly flipped through it, searching for an available room.
The employee quickly searched for a long time, no matter how many books or pages he flipped through.
The employee's face was slightly sad, and he was shaking with fear. "I'm sorry. All the rooms are full, but there's one room available.
It's a much cheaper room. Would you be interested? We're happy to refund your money. And free accommodation? For the number of guests requested? "
Seraph thought, turning to look outside. It was dark, with only a light to see the way.
[If I go somewhere else, I'll probably lose sleep... Okay, I'll sleep. At least I'll save money for other things. It's a pass. Free stuff. How wonderful.]
"Okay, then. You can lead the way."
The staff led Seraph to a location. It took quite a while.
Seraph arrived at his destination. In front of Seraph, there weren't many people walking around.
Seraph looked around. The neighborhood was very quiet. Even though it was nighttime, it was naturally quiet. Seraph thought so.
[People must have gone to bed.] Seraph surveyed the rental house. From now on, this place would be his bedroom.
The condition was average, not great, but not too bad. The road was made of dirt, and there were several houses next to each other.
Seraph's back was made of unattractive wood. As a special room
