Zhu Tian: Starting from the Stand User

Chapter 210 Rising to Fame
As more of Alderp's crimes were revealed, including evidence of him framing other nobles, the nobles began to believe that there might be a power struggle going on.

Rumors began to spread on the streets that he had summoned a demon. Everyone began to speculate whether he had fled from his crime or had been taken away by the demon. This was just a topic of conversation for adventurers and civilians alike.

After that, all disputes over the territory were matters between the nobles and had nothing to do with the adventurers.

After the trial, it was proved that Dust was not a member of the thieves' gang.

During this period, Lu Chen also visited the acting lord to prove Dust's innocence.

Prosecutor Senna did not get any useful information and could only detain the gangster for a few days on some minor charges and then released him.

After a farce, the matter was indeed left unresolved.

At the same time, the news of defeating the Headless Horseman spread to the surrounding areas, and some curious people came here.

Many merchants also set their sights on these bounties. Adventurers can never keep their money, so they have to reap the treasure.

At the same time, news spread that Kazuma and his team defeated the Demon King's army cadre, the poisonous slime Hans, in the hot spring city.

Surprisingly, only a few people from the Novice Village had achieved such a victory, while none of the adventurers on the front lines had achieved such a result. The elimination of the Demon King's two cadres greatly boosted morale on the Kingdom side.

Some royal family members began to feel curious about them.

After returning from Water City, Kazuma and his group began to brag about their achievements in the guild.

Kazuma boasted to Lu Chen, "Senior, now I have defeated the Demon King's army leader. It is indeed a loss for someone like me to quit the adventurer industry, so I will also work hard to defeat the Demon King!"

Kazuma has intermittent ambitions, but who knows how long they can last.

The fact that they had defeated the Demon King's army leaders made the other adventurers in the guild have some respect for the recent newcomers.

They began to agree with Kazuma, or said they hoped Kazuma would buy them a round of drinks.

So Lu Chen followed Kazuma's words and praised him: "I've said before that you have such potential. Maybe you will be the one to defeat the Demon King."

"Hahaha, of course it's me."

He Zhen laughed triumphantly, he didn't know what humility was.

"I heard that a bandit group appeared here recently? I also heard that they killed the lord with a bad reputation. I also want to form a bandit group. I can also become the bandit boss." Huihui expressed her ambitions with some envy.

Kazuma, who was obsessed with the dream of defeating the Demon King, quickly interrupted Huihui from expressing her ambitions.

"That group of people are wanted. I don't want to be thrown into jail just because of what you said. Dust said it's not comfortable in there at all."

"Obviously, no one cares about this anymore, and everyone thinks they are chivalrous thieves."

Kazuma decisively crushed Huihui's dream: "Why would you do such a thing if no one cares about you anymore? Besides, it's not normal for a mage like you to be a thief."

He would definitely not influence Huihui to do such a dangerous thing.

Aqua also said, "That's right, Huihui, don't even think about doing something so dangerous."

"As a noble, I cannot pretend I didn't hear what you said."

At this time, a girl from the Crimson Demon tribe rushed into the guild. She looked around first, then said to Kazuma in a panic, "I want Mr. Kazuma's child!"

This is Youyou who was tricked. So Kazuma proudly fixed his hair and posed for the others, saying, "See? I also have a fanatical female fan who wants to devote herself to me now."

Lu Chen casually continued, "I didn't realize you were quite charming. Then go talk to your fans."

Now that we've reached the Crimson Demon Village, can we also go there and buy some potions to increase our skill points? It's said that these are the specialties of the Crimson Demon Clan.

Huihui on the other side immediately exclaimed, "Youyou, what's wrong with you? Do you know what you are saying?"

“B-Because, because! If I don’t have a child with Kazuma-san, the world will…! The Demon King will…!”

Then Youyou took out a letter to explain the situation. It seemed that the situation in the Crimson Demon Village was very bad.

Of course Lu Chen knew that someone's novel had been mixed in with the letter.

Normally, the Crimson Demons were pretty good at not provoking others. Generally speaking, no one would proactively provoke this group of brainless people.

They would bomb the Demon King's castle every now and then and spy on the Demon King's daughter.

So Kazuma decided to go to the Scarlet Demon Village to see what the situation was.

Kazuma habitually invited Lu Chen again: "Senior, do you want to go to the Crimson Demon Village with us?"

Lu Chen agreed: "If I have nothing to do later, I can go to the Red Devil Village with you guys."

Chris walked in at this time, and she found that almost everyone she knew was there.

So he greeted everyone and said, "Everyone's back. It's been a while, Darkness. What have you been up to lately? The noble who was always harassing you has disappeared."

Darkness waved back at her friend and said, "I heard about that. What's Chris been up to lately?"

"I was just doing the mission, I didn't encounter anything interesting."

She didn't dare tell her friends that she was a chivalrous thief.

Then Chris walked over to Lu Chen and said in a low voice, "I've found out who has the Holy Armor. Now you can follow me to retrieve it."

Lu Chen nodded. In that case, there was no need to rush to the Scarlet Devil Village. Or he could ask Kazuma to bring some for him. He would pay them.

He Zhen pricked up his ears to listen to the gossip about Lu Chen. It is everyone's nature to like to listen to other people's gossip.

It’s a pity that he didn’t hear anything.

Lu Chen looked at Kazuma's curious face and said, "If you go to the Crimson Demon Village, please bring me some skill potions. I heard that skill potions are all made by the Crimson Demons. They should be cheaper at the place of origin. Now I have some things to do."

"Senior, aren't you going with us?" Although he said this, his eyes were full of gossip.

"No, things here are more important. You can definitely solve the crisis in Scarlet Devil Village by yourself."

Kazuma agreed with a cheerful look on his face, "Okay then, I'll bring you some skill potions."

So Lu Chen paid the money to He Zhen in advance. He Zhen was actually a very reputable person and would definitely not use Lu Chen's money for anything else.
