I'M A Villains In My Second Life
The Chapter 219

Adam escorts Leathina, Edward, and Troy to the inn but upon entering Edward breaks away saying that he has business to do and asks Leathina and the others to enter first.

“His room is in room number two and three of the second floor. If you come back please come there or ask the inn owner who is on guard to take you there later.” Adam told Edward not to have trouble finding their room later.

“Will I remember.” Answer Edward, “Leathina take care of yourself.” Say it before you go.

“You know where he's going?” leathina asked Adam and Troy.

Adam and Troy looked at each other then looked back at Leathina and shook their heads at the sign that they did not know where Ed was going.

“Alright, I will escort Miss Leathina to the room first to save your luggage and accompany Miss to look for hair color changing herbs.” Adam then immediately entered the inn followed by Troy and Leathina behind him.

“I'll be waiting for you under Miss Leathina.”

After Adam escorted Leathina in the room they had ordered Adam straight down while Troy went straight into the other room to rest after a day as a coachman.

After a while of waiting Adam saw Leathina with a slight run down the stairs and approached her.

“Not tired right?” adam asked when Leathina had just arrived.

Leathina nodded then immediately prepared to follow Adam out.

“Come Miss Leathina.” Invite Adam politely to let Leathina walk first.

“Ah, Adam you can call me like when we first met. I'm more comfortable with that.” Leathina said as she walked the city streets looking for herbs with Adam.

“Ah! I used to be disrespectful for not knowing Miss Leathina's identity well, plus knowing that you turned out to be the one Mr. Ed liked made it even more impossible to do that again miss.” Adam answered, joking. “And again my tongue can be cut if the boss knows.” Mumbled slowly.

“What did you say?” leathina asked because Adam could not hear well because he was in the crowd.

“There is a herbal store, maybe what we are looking for is there.” Adam exclaimed as he pulled Leathina towards the store he meant deliberately because he did not want Leathina to interrogate him later.

Leathina, knowing that Adam did not want to talk to her, deliberately ignored and pretended not to care about the words Adam had just spoken.

“Shelf!” adam took Leathina to the herbal store to change her hair color as quickly as possible in order to move freely without the need to cover up, causing her to bump into someone until they both fell.

“Ah! are you okay Miss?” ask a man who immediately approached Leathina who fell because of the weight of Adam who was still holding his hand when Adam fell.

“What's okay?!” Ask Adam who swiftly stood up after falling and blocked the man who wanted to help Leathina and fix Leathina's robe back fortunately Leathina's head covering did not open, Adam deliberately brushed off the hand of the man who intended to help Leathina who was still extending his hand to Leathina then immediately helped Leathina stand back up and took her away.

“Thank you sir he's fine now.” Adam said coldly then resumed his journey by placing Leathina walking right in front of him.

Leathina who was shocked by what was going on could only be silent yet accidentally their eyes met.

“For now it is still very dangerous to make contact with a stranger Miss." His whisper to Leathina then asked Leathina to stop looking at him.

Leathina nodded in understanding then immediately looked straight ahead ignoring the man who was about to help her, she said, but because he still noticed Leathina turned back to check and sure enough the man who had wanted to help her still looked at him from a distance and even smiled while waving his hand when Leathina saw him again.

“Nona?!” call Adam back to commemorate Leathina.

“Adam looks like he recognized me?” whispering to Adam, adam who heard him nodded in understanding then the two hurriedly headed for the shop he was looking for and immediately went inside after making sure that no one was following them both.

“Are you okay Miss Leathina?” adam asked in panic, then he showed his panic and anxiety after entering the store and not seen by anyone.

“Ah! I scratched a little.” Said Leathina while showing her injured hand and then closed it with her other hand. “But now it's okay.” His words again showed that his injured hand was now fully healed.

“Akh! How can you laugh when injured like this, even though you have healing magic abilities but still will feel pain when injured is not it?” Adam rubbed his face rough looking at Leathina who had been injured because he then reached into his pocket to take out his handkerchief and clean Leathina's dirty palm with dust and some blood spots from her wound which has healed.

“Thank you for worrying about me Adam, you've always been good since the first time we met.” Leathina's words moved Adam.

“I know Miss has always been treated badly, but ana should not fall for me just because I was being nice to Miss Leathina.” Adam said while pretending to be moved deliberately teasing Leathina.

“Hahahah, I was a little moved when I saw your treatment of me but seeing you now makes me want to hit you Adam.” Leathina exclaimed along with her laughter.

Adam who saw Leathina laughing also laughed because he was happy to see Leathina as he knew it when he first met.

“But, Adam seems like the guy knew me?” leathina's words suddenly made Adam instantly clench his mouth in worry.

“How can in a small city like this anyone know you, are you sure?” adam asked as he continued to look left and right to check the situation.

Leathina nodded convincingly, “Iya right it seems like the man just now really knew me he even waved tanan and smiled when I accidentally looked back.”

“Then we have to do something immediately.” Say Adam, “ Wait here, don't talk to anyone and don't go anywhere.” After telling Leathina Adam, he walked over to the owner of the shop who was further inside the room.

Adam talked for a moment with the shop owner and then after that the store owner immediately gave something to Adam after Adam paid and went straight back to Leathina where he lived in the corner of the store.

“Nona kemari.” Adam's words drew Leathina into a room inside the store. “I asked permission to lend you a room and show you this room, now drink this and your hair will soon change” Adam handed me a small bottle containing a solid black herb.

“Is this okay?” leathina asked a little hesitantly as she saw the liquid in the bottle look like poison rather than a potion.

Adam nodded, “Iya is fine, this herb is safe.” Adam said enthusiastically then opened the bottle cap for Leathina.

Although still doubtful Leathina still drank the potion that Adam bought for her because he could not bear to see Adam so excited because he wanted to see how the ingredients he bought worked to change the color of hair.

“Ukh! It's really bitter.” Leathina muttered after swallowing the entire herb in one gulp. “How has it changed?” tanya Leathina was curious.

Adam who was also seriously watching Leathina's hair shook his head because he had not seen any changes, “Not yet, it is still not possible in a moment.” His words tampa took his eyes off Leathina's hair. “Ah! now it has started to change.” Her excitement was excited when she saw Leathina's hair slowly changing.

“Really?’ lamented Leathina was no less excited.

Leathina's hair slowly changed color after drinking the concoction until her entire striking red hair was now completely lost due to changing color.

“What color?” taya Leathina is curious.

“Brown color.” Enthusiastic answer.

“Truly changed?” leathina asked again while examining herself by deciphering her hair and looking at the tips of hers.

His whole hair turned completely brown.

 “More beautiful that used to be because of the color for but this one is also beautiful as if seeing the other side of a Leathina.” Her reply then helped Leathina take off her robe, “Her medicine will work for three days after that her hair color will be kembai as before.”

“Ah!Adam better have the cloak still I wear until we get out of this store.” Leathina returned to wearing her robe properly and then covered her hair with her hood.

“Eh! Why?” adam asked confused because he hoped Leathina could be free soon without the need to close herself again.

“This is just to prevent it, because of course they will immediately suspect and know I used the herb that you just bought.”

“Alright, I understand now then we must immediately return to the inn, you must be tired after a day on the trip.”

“Oh! We may need to buy the ingredients even more.”

“Quietly I've bought more than you think.” Adam smiled as he showed a bag in which there were many bottles of potions similar to the one he had consumed.

“Thank you Adam, you seem to be very prepared to take care of me this time.”

“Of course I have to do.” He said as he walked out of the herb shop and walked back to the inn.

On their way back to the inn they both used a little time to take a short walk around the city to see the atmosphere.

“Be careful, Sir!” Adam exclaimed furiously when once again someone who seemed to be deliberately walking haphazardly and wanted to bump into Leathina.

Adam nimbly scolded him and then pushed him back.

“Ah! forgive my friend sir, it seems like he was heavily drunk we just had a drink at the bar earlier and he ended up like this.” Someone again came to the person who wanted to hit Leathina said that the theme was then immediately apologized and took away her friend who was now unconscious after being pushed by Adam.

“The depth of our first collision and the second was intentional.” Leathina said then immediately pulled Adam away to the crowd to make it difficult to follow.

“Really, but is it possible they know of your whereabouts Miss Leathina?’ This Adam asked who was walking faster than Leathina and led her back to the inn.

“They're not sure yet that's why they tried to check by bumping because they wanted to uncover the hood of the robe that covered my hair so as not to be suspected.”

“true also preferably now we should immediately return to the inn.” Adam then replied with a nod by Leathina.

“Bruk!” suddenly a little boy passed in front of Adam and Leathina until a collision between two directions was inevitable.

“Be careful!” adam whispered vigilantly.

But when he was about to leave the girl who seemed to be five years old, suddenly his cry broke then quickly attracted the attention of many people. Leathina and Adam had to calm her down first.

“Are you okay?” adam asked and helped the boy stand up and pat him on the shoulder to ease his cries.

‘Jesus he's hurt.” Leathina looked at the wounds on both of the child's knees and reflexively stretched out her hands as she could not bear to see the child endure the pain.

“Do not!” intercept Adam who knows that Leathina will use her ability to heal wounds. “Cannot, the wound is not severe and can heal by itself!” adam said firmly as Leathina looked at him then tore off the end of Leathina's dress and used it as a scarf cover. “This alone is enough.” Say again. “I'm sorry my dress was torn, it looks like there are several pairs of eyes that pay attention to us, if we do like most people when seeing people get hurt then the suspicion can be sidetracked.” Adam whispered to Leathina then Leathina nodded her head in understanding and undoed her intention to use her ability.

“Nak, your parents?” leathina asked the child but the child did not answer she instead looked like she would cry again.

“We go to the side first, here are too many people.” Adam directly carried the little boy who collided with him to a quieter place and not many people.

“Nak, do you know where your parents are?” ask Adam again and the boy nodded. “Well, now go back and be sure to ask them to take care of your wounds.”

The boy shook his head strongly, “Why?” ask Leathina.

“The place is too far away and my leg hurts, can uncle take me?” he told Adam to take him home.

“Ah! forgive uncle but uncle really can't take you home son.” Adam refused.

“Alright, son. This uncle will take you home.”

Leathina suddenly agreed to her request so that the disapproving Adam could only stare at Leathina for not being able to say what she wanted to say in front of the little boy who had now opened his hand to be carried by her to be delivered home.

“You must know this is a trap, right?” adam whispered to Leathina.

“Ak know.” Leathina answered briefly while gently cleaning the child's face.

“So why?” adam asked, not understanding why Leathina had deliberately followed the trap set for them through the little boy.

“It gets even stranger if we leave this injured child alone here, so just follow the plot and fight if they are indeed dangerous.” Leathina replied in a whisper to make Adam inevitably have to obey.

“You'll drop him off right?” leathina asked Adam in front of the little boy.

Adam nodded, “Well will uncle inter.” He said as he squatted down and carried her.

“I'll wait here, come back as soon as you can.” Said Leathina while gesturing to Adam who was looking at her with a question mark look. “You didn't come with me to take this kid home?” Ask Adam.

“No, I'll wait here only.”

“Alright then wait for me here and don't go anywhere!”

Leathina nodded in understanding then waved her hand asking Adam to leave immediately.

“Where is your house nak?” adam asked as he walked away from Leathina to escort the child back to his master's people.

“Disana uncle.” answered briefly and his gaze only focused forward without telling his address clearly.

“To here uncle, thank you.” Just a few meters Adam drove him the child suddenly jumped down from his carrier and then disappeared in the middle of the crowd.

“Damn it, I already know this!” he then immediately ran back to where Leathina was and there turned out to be no one Leathina was no longer there.

...

“Hummpf!”

Leathina saw Adam now walking away leaving her to take the child back to his master's people. But not long ago Adam left suddenly two people locked him and closed his mouth so as not to shout or rebel.
