The Cold-Blooded Sword Expert
Little Pear Festival

Little Pear's town square seemed to be really very crowded as Leo had expected. Many traders display their merchandise at the stand that was deliberately prepared by the mayor himself.

So diverse, there are at least dozens of booths around the square to provide opportunities for traders. The excitement was then supported by the large number of people who saw a parade consisting of hundreds of legal female slaves belonging to the mayor who lined up neatly in half-naked clothes.

Not very suitable for children.

Leo's mind is like that.

Moreover, this also seems to be very early in the morning, Leo thinks that it seems that he is too soon to depart. No wonder, he set out at sunrise because he himself could not bear a patience either.

“Truly very crowded as I thought. I've never attended a festival as lively as this.” Melina acknowledged.

“This is the new festival of the city of miss, no matter what happens if the festival is held by the duke or king. It must be much more festive.” Add Hime who was also quite stunned when he saw the crowd at this festival.

Leo is not focused on all that, he is only focused on trading that is so diverse. What he saw was as varied as selling low-grade potions, items, artifacts, and possibly valuable items obtained from beasts, beast spirits and monsters.

Some weapons also Leo can see, there is a sword hanging, archery and also a magic wand that makes Leo actually quite interested. But, what makes Leo really interested is simply .. food.

“Mr Leodric!”

Leo looked ahead as he focused on the trade stand-stands. Seeing a blue haired woman who was none other than Iris. He walked towards Leo by waving his hand and such a cheerful face.

“Nona Iris? Turns out you are indeed on leave like you told me yesterday?” Leo asked.

“Yaa, but in the adventurer guild there were still other receptionists standing guard. So I'm not too worried. In addition, I will help you to complete that Quest ..:”

“Leo! From now on call me Leo, miss. You are the daughter of the Viscount. It is very unethical to call a figure who is in the lower circles with the name of master. Besides, I'm very grateful with your help, instead of me refusing, but I've brought my own partner.” Leo then glanced at the two women standing behind him.

Iris looked at the two women standing behind Leo. He frowned, looking at the level of the two of them who were below Iris. But that doesn't mean Iris herself demeans them all, Iris just wants to know how strong they are when trying to stand near Leo?

“Salam knows, my name is Melina. Miss .... Iris?” Melina showed a little modesty.

“I Hime miss Iris. We are slaves of lord Leodric.”

“Bu-slave? Tu, I mean Leo, you have two slaves? All women?” Iris looked suspiciously at Leo.

“I found them all. Those who insist on being the slave of the lady. Besides, I ordered them to bring the Lily flower potion that I told you about yesterday.”

Right, Iris saw two Leo slaves carrying small, closed bags. So Iris herself doesn't see what they're actually carrying. But hearing that Leo is carrying a sun lily potion, also revealed by Leo at dinner, Leo, obviously it made Iris really very curious and also made sure that what Leo said was true.

“I want to see it. I hope you're not lying.” Iris looked at Leo seriously.

A potion of light blue, more or less the same color as the iris hair is now in Melina's grasp. A herb that is in an oval clear bottle with a very tight wooden lid so that the liquid inside does not spill.

Actually for the potion itself no one could identify it about what kind of potion it was, to what degree, except an alchemist. Even Iris herself was also still between believing and not believing that what Melina was holding was a sun lily healing potion. Because Iris is not an alchemist.

“I am not an alchemist, but is it indeed true that it is a sun potion lily?”

“Didn't I confirm if you are not per ...”

“Nona, from your tone it looks like an understatement. Do we need to hurt you first and put a potion in your mouth so you can trust?” Melina said in a high enough tone while cutting off Leo's speech.

“Melina!” Firm Leo.

If the word in front of Leo was not a Viscount princess, perhaps Leo could be a little bit of a match for her. But Leo could not find trouble with the nobility right now, let alone the entangled were his slaves, Leo had trouble picking and was considered a rebel.

“No problem Leo, besides forgive me. Okay, now forget about it. The parade is about to begin, let's keep watch for your quest. Even if you refuse my help, I will still help you.” Pinta Iris was very stubborn.

Leo recalled, it seems that this quest is really very rough which is to kill 5 petty criminals. And it was done in a public place? It doesn't seem to be anything true as it would ruin an event of this festival quite well. Perhaps what professional adventurers did was to kidnap her and kill her silently in such a desolate place.

Like, petty criminals will definitely run after they do the action, then hide in a quiet place so as not to give a suspicious attitude. And then, the adventurers will do the action.

You could say, this quest depends on luck. Because it does not rule out the possibility of only a few petty criminals. After all, it's stupid to hope that there will be a lot of petty criminals hanging around. That's obviously impossible!

A parade that is quite luxurious, as Leo thought earlier, although luxurious but this is very unfriendly to children. It's just that many parents just let it go because they think that this is just entertainment.

Impressive “Parade right Leo?” Iris says.

“Somehow I feel such a bad feeling.” Leo said softly as he touched his chin,

When viewed carefully, the circumstances around may not be wrong. Everyone was happy, cheering because the festival was full of excitement. It's just, Leo feels not so good, he actually doesn't know what will happen after this.

He looked around, there was clearly nothing strange, looking ahead, nothing wrong. He also saw the parade troupe, there was nothing wrong either.

“Leo, look at that!” Iris signals Leo to look in one of the directions.

His eyes were quite sparkling when there was a small criminal had done the action, which was to pick up valuable objects on people who were not aware of it.

“But sir, look! Not only that, I see, there are two, three.” Imbuh Hime who also pointed in one direction after Iris saw some petty criminals.

“Why do they do it simultaneously?”
