"Alright, let's have a proper talk."

After a while of commotion, Kobayashi released Grandpa Rom.

He showed his goodwill.

Grandpa Rom rubbed his wrist, which was marked with red welts from being bound, and said in a deep voice, "Let's have a proper talk... Young man, this doesn't look like you want to have a proper talk."

"In my understanding, if you want someone to talk to you calmly, you have to subdue them," Kobayashi replied casually.

Naruto boy, Bleach boy, One Piece boy—all are famous for their sharp tongues.

But before they can unleash their verbal attacks, they need to subdue their enemies thoroughly, since not everyone is willing to listen to them.

Even Confucius wrote "The Analects," so he was a famous thinker as well as a famous educator.

Grandpa Rom didn't understand any grand principles, but he did understand that whoever had the bigger fist would be in charge.

"So, young man, what do you want to say to us?"

"To put it simply, you and Ferut are going to die."

Kobayashi's opening remarks are like a bombshell.

Grandpa Rom frowned slightly and remained silent, while Felt couldn't help but burst into laughter, the little girl's melodious voice carrying a hint of disdain.

"Why are you laughing?"

Subaru Natsuki was very puzzled.

Surely she couldn't have thought of something happy?

The little girl pouted: "Shouldn't we laugh? You guys finally told a lame joke, and I'm just kindly agreeing with you to show my gratitude and boost my confidence so we can form a comedy duo and become a big hit. I'll come and support you in a while."

"You think we're comedians?!"

Subaru Natsuki's triangular eyes widened even more.

Surprisingly, the little girl's sharp tongue is just as sharp as Liu Zi's, showing immense potential at such a young age.

"I'm serious, you and Grandpa Rom are really going to die! I'm not kidding!"

"Ah, yes, yes."

"Hey!!!"

It seems that Felt and Subaru are a very compatible pair.

"Mr. Rom, aren't you going to say something?"

"say what?"

At Ferut's call, Rom, whose thoughts had been interrupted, came back to his senses.

"Oh, they actually said we're both going to die! Aren't you angry?"

"not at all."

He remained smiling and didn't seem offended.

The residents living here face death at any time; it's become the norm in the slums. That's why there's the saying, "Be strong and live on."

“That’s right, young man. If it’s just baseless alarmist talk, then I’ll have to see you out.”

"Based on that, I don't know if this counts."

Kobayashi placed a badge on the counter.

The overall shape is triangular, carved with an ancient dragon shape, and a red gemstone in the center.

It was precisely Ferut's target for theft.

"It's still a bit early, but it doesn't matter." Kobayashi said something cryptic, then pointed to the badge and asked, "Do you guys know what this is?"

“I don’t know. I only know that the client asked me to steal this.” Ferut shook her head.

Natsuki Subaru exclaimed in surprise, "You dared to steal it without even knowing what it was?"

"A good thief will not ask the client what they want to steal."

The little girl has quite a bit of professional ethics.

She didn't know what this thing was, but she understood that it was of great value, otherwise the bounty wouldn't be as high as twenty holy gold coins.

"This is the Dragon Emblem."

"The Emblem of the Dragon?"

Under the puzzled gazes of everyone, Kobayashi slowly began to explain:

"As you all know, the Kingdom of Lugnica is currently in the process of electing a king and does not yet have a true king, right? This country is a pro-dragon kingdom, so only a priestess recognized by the dragon—that is, a Dragon Priestess—is qualified to become the next king. So, how do we identify who the Dragon Priestess is?"

"Could it be...!"

“That’s right. The badge that Ferut stole is the most important token for the candidate to become the next king of this kingdom!”

As the intelligence unfolded, the expressions on their faces varied.

Natsuki Subaru never expected that the angel he so desperately wanted to help would actually be a queen candidate.

Contrary to her smugness, Felt was genuinely frightened. The little girl never imagined that the target of her theft would be someone of such great importance.

This is bad; I might really be killed.

“But the one who truly harbors murderous intent towards you is not the owner of the lost property, but the person who commissioned it.” Kobayashi’s words jolted Felt awake.

The little girl quickly asked, "What happened?"

“Because we need to make sure that no one else knows about this,” came the serious-looking Mr. Rom.

Subaru Natsuki couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "No wonder Felt and Rom were already dead when we first came to the stolen goods warehouse. They were trying to kill them to cover their tracks."

His muttering went unheard.

Ferut quickly said, "Then let's leave here, Mr. Rom!"

"You're really naive, Felt. Do you think you can get out of this unscathed after getting involved?"

Xiaolin's answer frightened her somewhat.

Lord Rom stood up, puffed out his chest, and said with a fierce look, "I don't care who they are, as long as they dare to come, I will definitely kill them!"

The giant's height and bulging muscles certainly gave him a sense of security. But Natsuki Subaru, who already knew the future, could only say: Give it a rest. She's younger than you; you can't beat her.

The opponent is that Bowel Hunter, a formidable foe that even the three or four of them (including Satella) couldn't defeat, except for Kobayashi.

There's no way to escape, and no way to resist.

It's enough to make you despair.

Just as morale had plummeted to its lowest point and Kobayashi was about to offer them some encouragement, a young girl appeared at the door.

"Um, what happened?"

A sweet, charming female voice suddenly broke through the somber atmosphere, drawing everyone's attention.

Upon hearing this voice, Natsuki Subaru immediately perked up and shouted:

"I'm coming!"

His face flushed slightly, and he looked at the newcomer with the longing of someone seeing an angel, his gaze filled with youthful infatuation.

No, Emilia was an angel to him.

Everyone turned their attention to the doorway.

The first thing that catches the eye is a head of long, silvery-white hair, which shines brightly in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Her dark purple eyes, while carrying a hint of childlike innocence, were also full of intellectual beauty. Her soft features combined striking beauty with a touch of naivety, giving off a strangely dangerous charm that emanated from her nobility.

Her simple white outfit, devoid of any elaborate embellishments, only served to accentuate her striking presence.

The long robe she wore seemed to conceal her charm, but it also added a great deal of solemnity.

She is the girl that Natsuki Subaru vowed to save, even if it meant going through multiple reincarnations.

—Emilia, the half-elf!

While everyone was still stunned, Felt suddenly grabbed the badge from the counter, ran behind the girl, and shouted in a slightly tearful voice:

"Help my older sister! They forced me to do all this!"

Ok? ? ?

The bad guy complains first?

Kobayashi and Natsuki Subaru looked completely bewildered.

Chapter 360 Shall We Dance

"Help my older sister! They forced me to do this!"

The little girl's antics shocked everyone.

Okay, okay, let’s play it this way, okay?

The purpose of doing this is simply to shift the blame.

She knew that Kobayashi and the other two were not in cahoots with the owner of the stolen item, and she also knew just how important the badge she had stolen was. If she didn't do this, she would definitely be the one who suffered in the end!

Offending the king's candidate is a heinous crime!

Subaru Natsuki is gone.

A little thought reveals that on one side is a petite, helpless blonde little girl, and on the other side are two fierce-looking men.

Let alone Satella being a gentle and kind angel, even passing guards might arrest them without any explanation.

It's surprising that Ferute, at such a young age, already knows how to use her rights as a woman.

"How is this going."

The silver-haired girl thought she was just catching a petty thief, but she ended up stirring up a whole nest of thieves.

It was shocking to discover that someone was forcing a young girl!

Kind-hearted, she didn't think twice and immediately shielded the crying little girl who was begging for her help behind her.
