Gorgeous Jewel
Chapter III Chapter 82


There was no wind no rain, Alice absolutely could not avoid the calamity she faced this time. His body was dragged by a grey-haired female deemon whom he had met at the time.


Echidna puffed her cheeks looking at the woman with a frown. It should be their day off hunting monsters or doing union duty and Echidna should be enjoying her time together with her mother. But it was the woman's fault that messed things up. The gray-haired female Deemon had completely obliterated her sweet dream.


Echidna continued to stare at the back of the female deemon who was walking cheerfully in front of her. "Hmmm!" Grunt annoyed.


The woman turned around to hear Echidna snorting. He looked down at the cute little girl with an angry expression that made him even more anxious. "Little girl darling~ why frown? I'll buy you something good, okay?"


Echidna threw out her face. "Mama forbade me to accept anything from an unknown person. Especially that guy's suspicious."


"Eh~ Oh brother forgot it turns out." The girl held up her standing position and faced the two to introduce herself. "Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, hehe. My name is Rosalyn Nemea. Just call me Rosalyn." His word. He took Alice's hand. "If you may call me Rose." Go ahead and give Alice a blink of an eye.


Seeing his attitude attached to his mother. Echidna stood in the middle of the two to separate the woman from Alice.


"Miss Rosalyn, what's the point of taking me around like this?" Alice asked formally and was heard to put some distance between them. Since then he had only been waiting for the female deemon to express his true intentions.


"rose. You can call me Rose." Rosalyn gave a begging look that she made. "Don't be so formal. I just want to be friends with you." Further.


It's not that Alice doesn't want to be friends with Rosalyn. It's just, his hunch says something else. Although it looked friendly, the deemon woman before him felt to be hiding something. Alice could not help but suspect him, although Rosalyn admitted that she was an acquaintance of Ophelia.


Echidna lifted her face and looked at the woman. He wanted to take his mother away from him. Since then the woman named Rosalyn has taken them around while introducing the entire city they passed. Her feelings faltered when the three of them reached a shopping district and stopped by a street store selling snacks.


In order to persuade and gain the heart of Echidna. Rosalyn immediately bought them food, drink, and even offered to buy them new combat supplies. Rosalyn knew that Alice was a very good hunter. Wherever they went, Rosalyn would definitely offer something that caught her eye to Alice and Echidna.


After a long walk and passing through many sights Demonscar city is full of crowds with various kinds of deemons from various tribes. Rosalyn has also offered a lot. When he saw the look on Alice's face that was getting bored. Rosalyn finally decided to take them to a famous bakery in the town of Demonscar.


"I'm sorry....Rose's." Alice was a little awkward calling him that. Rosalyn's eyes were wide open and sparkling. He felt that their relationship was getting a little closer. "Not that I want to reject your kindness but, I wonder what your true purpose is?"


Alice went straight to the point. He was tired of watching the woman's deemon hold his tongue to ask.


Rose jerks. He relaxed his shoulders and let go of his breath. "I want to ask for your help."


"Help? What kind of help is that?"


"Maybe you already know about the state of the Arkham continent where the deemons divide themselves into two fractions. Passive and active." Alice nodded.


"Begini~" Rose played both of her index fingers and awkwardly said to Alice. "I want you to help me solve this problem."


"I knew. But all this time I haven't found anyone with the same abilities as you. When I first saw you, I felt sure that you must be the person I had been looking for all this time. Yes.. even if it's just my gut feeling, but I'm sure.a hundred percent sure."


"Go to the hunter's guild and submit your request. I'm sure someone will take it." Alice refused Rose's request.


It's not that Alice doesn't want to help Rose. But what Rose asked for was something related to the politics of the country on the Demonscar continent and Alice knew for sure it would take a lot of time to complete.


Rosae clasped Alice's two hands that she had just wanted to stand up from her seat. "Are you sure?" Ask Rose slowly. Seeing Alice not responding to her question. Rose stood up and planned to leave the store but her nose suddenly caught a strange smell. Rosalyn inhaled it once, faintly and slowly she remembered what the smell was. Rose had just realized that the visitor at the store had become unconscious.


"Alice! Close nose!" Rose immediately.


What he smelled was the smell of the sleeping smoke. When you breathe it in, your body loses energy slowly. Like a leaky container that spits out water droplets little by little. Sleepy smoke will not be felt until the person is completely exhausted from running out of mana and eventually unconsciousness. The sleeper smoke these days is often used by the active factions in carrying out their plans especially to infiltrate the demon king's castle and retrieve important documents.


Alice glanced around him. He felt nothing and nothing happened to him. But judging by Rose's frantic expression as well as the unconscious deemons in the shop. Alice took a standby position.


Besides, Alice saw that Echidna who was sitting down enjoying her food also looked fine. "What's going on?" Alice's mind narrowed her eyes looking at their situation.


Suddenly, a strange dome covered the entire store. "Th-this...! Looks like we're stuck."


Rose quickly turned around when she felt someone coming from the second floor of the store. He was surprised to see the gray-haired man walking slowly down the stairs followed by Kyrant a slave from the dragon race.


Rose and Alice, each of them recognized those people.


"He was the man at the time." Alice said in her heart. Then he glanced at the gray-haired man beside him.


"Why-Sister?!" Rose did not expect that the one who trapped her in the dome was her brother. But what was more surprising to him was the existence of his brother who was still alive. Rose's body was stiff either because of her brother's presence or the fact that her brother was someone of an active faction.


Alice turned to Rose and looked at the gray-haired man deemon. They both have the same face shape. Especially when he heard Rose calling the man brother.


The man said nothing. He went down the stairs quietly and stopped and extended his hand forward.


Within seconds the place was filled by the shadow warrior of the man. The deemons who had abilities equivalent to level 6 mages.


"I can't even feel their presence." Inner Alice. He squeezed his fists and felt that this fight would be a little more difficult.
