Chapter 398 Dwarf Assassin
Chapter 398 Dwarf Assassin
This old man's strength is not bad, and his ability to hide his figure is enough to make it impossible for people to find him.
As for... why did Julian and Owen know of his existence?
That is of course because this small courtyard is not as ordinary as it appears.
Owen is not a fool. How could he casually date in a small courtyard when he knew that the news about him and Julian might cause trouble?
This seemingly ordinary courtyard was decorated with more than a dozen different magic circles after Owen came in.
These magic arrays are all 'array disks' refined by Julian in advance. Owen only needs to activate them with blood energy. These array disks can not only monitor the movement of the entire small courtyard, but also soundproof, ensuring that the two can make out The process is not monitored by others.
Regardless of his age, this old man's concealment skill is at its peak. Before Julian was warned by the array, he didn't even notice that someone had entered the yard, but when he thought of such a powerful person, it was the smell of skewers that he grilled. If you are seduced, you can't help but make people laugh.
"The moonlight is just right tonight, why don't the elderly come in and enjoy the moon together?" Julian said with a smile.
"Huh..." The old voice snorted, and a group photo flashed by the window.
Julian and Owen were surprised to find that at some point, an old man with a rather... miniature figure was sitting on the ponytail next to them.
The corner of Julian's mouth twitched, he sounded very angry, but he came in quickly enough.
The dwarf old man glared at Julian angrily: "What are you looking at, have you never seen a dwarf?"
Julian immediately smiled and said, "I've never seen it before. After all, I'm still young, and the scope of my experience has been limited to human cities. However, dwarf assassins have always been famous, so I was so surprised to see you."
The dwarf old man was flattered by him, and he was in a good mood, "You have good eyesight, kid."
After finishing speaking, he stared at Julian—the meat skewer in his hand with piercing eyes, "I said boy, you are lucky to meet me today!" He licked his lips, "I am the most famous Gourmet, if the food you cook is well received by me, as long as you spread the word and open a restaurant in the future, I guarantee that you will come here like a cloud."
The dwarf old man is very proud, he is a dignified seventh-level assassin, and if he leaks something from his fingers, it is enough for ordinary people to eat for several years.And he didn't lie, 'Shadow Thorn' Hughes is indeed a foodie with a reputation all over the continent. Although it is a bit strange for a high-level assassin to become a foodie, there is actually no conflict.
Food that can be praised by him will definitely be welcomed by the upper class, so what he said is absolutely true. As long as he can appreciate it, if Julian is willing to run the catering business, he will definitely make a lot of money.
Julian didn't think about it that much, but he is in a good mood now, so he doesn't care about sharing food with outsiders.
To a mysterious strong man, he doesn't mind showing his friendliness, but it's just a few skewers of meat. If he can get to know a master because of this, it will be a big profit.
Owen's thoughts are similar to his. For someone like him who is ambitious and wants to go further, the more masters he can meet, the better the expansion of his network.
A great leader of Huaguo once said that we should have many friends and few enemies.Owen took this sentence very seriously, so he was also happy to show his kindness to anyone who might become his friend.
Hughes took the meat skewers handed over by Julian, feasted on them, and was picky while eating, such as the meat was not marinated thoroughly, the size of the meat was uneven, and the heat of the grill was not enough.
Even if Julian has heard of it, he is not a full-time chef. Cooking is just his hobby. It is impossible for him to devote all his experience to it.
Amateur and professional are completely different concepts. There are chefs in Huaguo who can shred tofu, but Julian can do it now, but...it's unnecessary.
Just like those meat pieces before, they are about the same size, there is no need to worry about which piece is fatter and which piece is thinner.
Julian and Owen had already eaten most of the skewers, and the rest went into the stomach of the dwarf old man in a short while.
After eating and drinking enough, Hughes took out a handkerchief, wiped his mouth gracefully, and said with satisfaction: "Your knife skills and fire are not good enough, but the creativity of cooking is good, as long as you can calm down and hone it With your basic skills, I believe that you will definitely have a place in the cooking competition in the near future."
For Hughes to say such a thing, it can be seen that he is really very satisfied with Julian.
Unfortunately, Julian is doomed to refuse his kindness.
"Why?" Hughes was very puzzled. In his opinion, all cooks dream of participating in the culinary competition in the imperial capital, so it is the best tool for them to change their class.
There was once a chef who was directly made a viscount because he successfully pleased His Majesty the Emperor at a certain culinary competition. .
It can be said that it was a coincidence that the chef Viscount was awarded the title, but this cannot conceal that many people hope to pass this competition and become an upper class.
Since both Julian and Owen restrained their aura well, Hughes didn't know that these two people in front of him were extraordinary people of the same level as him, and he just habitually regarded these two people who lived in the civilian area As ordinary people, I hope to point out a way out for them.
Julian smiled and thanked Hughes. This old man who came to eat food really loves food, and he gave a practical plan that can benefit. Julian may not need it, but he will never Feel bad for him.
"It's so strange." Hughes persuaded him a few words, but seeing Julian's insistence, he didn't say anything more.
"In this case..." Hughes thought for a while, a dignified high-ranking assassin couldn't finish the meal without giving money, right?
So he took out an emerald green gemstone from his pocket and threw it to Julian: "This is considered dinner money."
Knowing that now is not the time to deepen friendship, Julian took the gem with a smile.
After Hughes gave the gem, he probably felt that the two parties were settled, so he patted his ass and jumped out from the side of the courtyard wall.
Looking at his 'vigorous' figure, Julian stroked his chin and asked, "You said...why didn't he walk through the door?" Even though they had already eaten, they were considered acquaintances, so why did they jump over the wall? ?
Owen glanced at him, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly: "I'm probably used to it." Assassin is an advanced profession for thieves, so assassins like to climb walls, there's nothing wrong with it!
Julian chuckled, and Owen took him into his arms and rubbed him hard.
Probably the previous sleepiness washed away the passion in the body. Anyway, after waking up this time, both Julian and Owen are in the sage time, without any thoughts.
Even though Julian was wearing the best uniform, Owen was full of thoughts of licking, but he didn't want to drag him directly to bed.
The atmosphere between the two was intimate and warm. Julian asked about Owen's recent situation, and Owen didn't want to hide it from him, and directly explained his recent experience clearly.
The origin of the incident was still three months ago. With the incident caused by Pastor Adam, His Majesty the Emperor severely beat those nobles with impure thoughts.
Although the Holy Light Cathedral lost a little reputation, Owen handled it well afterwards, and most of the people did not blame the church for this incident.
He successfully escaped the crisis and received a batch of compensation from the empire. Owen handled this matter very well, and the Holy City was very satisfied with him.
In addition, he also helped His Majesty the Emperor a few small favors, and successfully connected with him as Owen Garcia instead of the Knight Commander of the Church of the Holy Light.
In general, it's a bit tiring, but worth it!
In comparison, Julian's experience was relatively lackluster. Blake kept him studying in the mage's tower. He had no idea that so many things had happened in the imperial capital in just three months.
"Huh? I seem to smell a very familiar smell." A voice suddenly sounded in Julian's mind.
Julian's face changed abruptly, and he threw out the emerald he was playing with almost reflexively.
"What's wrong?" Owen looked surprised.The gemstone left by Hughes was of good quality, so Julian's move surprised him.
"Hey! Why did you throw it away?" The voice was still rambling.
Julian's face was black: "Shut up! Why don't you throw it away and keep it, curse yourself?"
"How do you know that thing is a cursed gem?" Gold Crown asked in surprise.
The corner of Julian's mouth twitched, you guys are always useless, and the last time you spoke, you found a curse on Uncle Cheap, and the purification curse is a great supplement to the golden crown, so as soon as he spoke, Julian realized There, there must be something cursed around.
Combined with the fact that the gems on my uncle's belt were also green last time, this choice is easy to make.
"Don't worry." Seeing that Julian ignored him, the golden crown was a little anxious, and quickly explained to him: "This time the curse is very small, even if I don't take action, you will not be in any danger."
"What's wrong with that gemstone?" Owen is not stupid. He might not understand why Julian threw away that gemstone at first, but he quickly realized that the gemstone on the cursed belt was also green.
"Is it a curse?"
Owen's face was quite ugly. From all angles, the curse is a covert and vicious attack method. No matter who it is, it is very annoying to be entangled by inexplicable curses.
The effect of the curse is very bright, and many curses do not even make a sound when they are activated. If the more powerful the curse requires stricter restrictions, I am afraid that no one can escape the silent curse.
"Let me purify him." The golden crown made a bold request.
"Not yet." Julian shook his head. The source of this emerald was the assassin just now. In theory, the two sides didn't have much contact, and the other party had no reason to use this curse to trick him.
If he didn't know, then the problem would be even more strange. The gemstone carried by a seventh-level assassin actually carries a curse?When the word got out, it was hard for the people to believe it or not, but Julian didn't believe it anyway.
"Let's go, get him back first and ask." At first, Julian was quite worried that his uncle's cursed belt had been found out for a long time, and the two of them were about to give up. Unexpectedly, at this time, this group of people Someone popped up, and he must seize this clue.
Owen Diary:
Although there are not many kisses, it is very sweet and I am in a great mood!
