Lu Mingfei, become the king of gambling in dungeons!

—Jumping off a building was too hasty.

Standing on the streets of Tokyo, holding an umbrella for the yakuza princess, Lu Mingfei was lost in thought. He was now completely devoid of the arrogance and self-importance he had displayed two hours earlier when he considered himself a thug.

The underworld princess standing next to him, obediently reaching out to hold the umbrella for him, wore a blue-purple princess dress with black lace trim and pale yellow high-heeled ankle boots, with a blue ribbon hair ornament tied in her long hair.

The continuous torrential rains turned Tokyo into a water city like Venice, with streams flowing through the streets and alleys.

Tokyo in the midst of a storm possesses an extraordinary beauty; a layer of pink petals floats on the river, forming a dazzling sea of ​​cherry blossoms, while pink eddies swirl in the rapids; in the calmer parts, a thick layer of fragrant petals accumulates.

"So, how did things turn out like this?" During the pause, Lu Mingfei glanced at the devil next to him, who was humming "Sakura no Shiori" in the rain. "Devil, did we enter the wrong instance? I've been here for so long and there hasn't been a single Deadpool..."

He looked around, somewhat bewildered, as if drawing his sword.

After Lu Mingze stopped humming, a faint golden light flashed in his eyes: "I told you, this is a long story, the kind that's sweet at first and then bitter... But judging from the current trend, others will probably suffer even more later on. Don't be so confused, cheer up. Life will occasionally give you a little treat. I'll give you a little bonus: 'fluent Japanese'."

Lu Mingfei patted his ears, feeling no change, but he believed the devil wouldn't give him a piece of his mind over such a trivial matter.

"I'm going to say goodbye now. I have an old flame in Japan. You'd better accompany the underworld princess shopping... And one more thing to remind you, the owner here isn't dead yet. She's a 'smart NPC,' you know. Brother, be careful not to kill her. She's a pretty young lady." Lu Mingze said with great enthusiasm, waving goodbye with a flourish.

"How can someone so young be so lewd? Which mother dragon is she? I mean your old flame." Lu Mingfei sighed with a sour feeling in his teeth, revealing his "I'm afraid my brother will drive a Land Rover" mentality.

Although he preferred to call Lu Mingze a devil, he knew perfectly well that Lu Mingze was undoubtedly some kind of being related to the dragon race.

Damn, we were chatting and appreciating each other all day and last night, and then you tell me you're a married, successful guy who's not on the same level as a loser. Lu Mingfei looked up at the hazy Tokyo sky at a 45-degree angle.

There are quite a few people who are doing very well these days.

"Of course not. I'm not interested in the female dragon. It's the two fat Siamese cats—Dekomori and Takanashi, the siblings. Don't you remember we raised them together?"

Lu Mingze left without looking back, and time thawed.

"I'm going to pet the cat."

"etc."

Lu Mingfei instinctively reached for some Japanese yen: "Be careful in a foreign country. Do you have enough money... Don't go to the red-light district at such a young age. Japan's softcore pornography industry is also very developed. Host clubs and bubble bath parlors are very cheap... It's very dangerous."

He stopped moving.

It's absurd that he would even ask about the safety and wealth of a devil. Lu Mingze should be thankful that he doesn't drag others into the bloody mire of hell.

The Japanese yen on him was given to him by Caesar and Chu Zihang two hours earlier when he was about to leave the instance. Caesar winked and said, "This is the hard-earned money from our work yesterday. You and your girl should be careful with it."

As he spoke, a hint of vicissitude and melancholy flashed in young master Gattuso's eyes.

The words "the hard-earned money from selling oneself" sent chills down Lu Mingfei's spine.

He had some understanding of the situation of the "2011 Kassel Headquarters Trio," knowing that they were wanted by the Hebi-Hachi family, where Genji was from, because of their different stances, and that the three brothers were essentially working part-time to support themselves.

But he didn't understand what kind of work they were doing in Tokyo. It sounded like Caesar and the others were working as male escorts in the service industry... That was unrealistic, because one of those guys was incredibly principled and the other was incredibly arrogant.

Moreover, how could someone of such a noble status as a dragon slayer be reduced to prostitution?

The most likely explanation is that Caesar used the wrong word; he meant to say "work hard"... As for the occasional mentions of fat women, male flower arrangement, flower tickets, and hostesses, they were just coincidences.

Lu Mingfei grew increasingly ashen-faced; he could no longer deceive himself.

"I won't get hurt or lose to anyone. I'll be with you through heaven and hell. This is something we promised each other long ago. Just let me disappear from your life for a while. The soft, cuddly touch of those fat cats will temporarily numb my love for my brother."

The devil's last voice disappeared into the cherry blossom rain as he walked into the surging crowd.

"I wanted to use the umbrella too, you've been holding it for so long." The princess next to her, Erii, held the cherry blossom-patterned note to her chest, feeling a little disappointed that she hadn't been able to snatch the umbrella.

"How can you write if you're holding an umbrella? It's not tiring for me to hold it." Lu Mingfei scratched his head and looked at her.

Of course he knew Erii, the runaway yakuza girl. She was the one who gave him the most sense of security at Genji Heavy Industries. She was suspected to be Genji's younger sister and was the strictest mother to the Snake-like Deadpool.

Back when he was being chased and humiliated by Deadpool in the heavy industry, he almost wanted to kneel down and thank the emperor when he saw the monster girl in the shrine maiden outfit descend from the sky and instantly kill several Deadpools.

The current timeline is after Genji Heavy Industries, that's for sure. It seems the underworld princess not only successfully ran away from home but is also living quite comfortably outside of the heavy industry.

Lu Mingfei stared blankly at the cherry blossom rain falling outside the umbrella, feeling as if a piece of his heart was missing. He would occasionally touch the pile of small weapons hidden on his body.

This instance doesn't even have any quests... and even if it did, he might not do them.

It's so relaxing and wonderful. Traveling around Tokyo with the beautiful girl who once scared him so much that his heart stopped. The beautiful girl next to him is also quite reliable in combat. When trouble comes, she can hold him while he fights all around.

Did life finally have a change of heart and say, "I was too cruel to you, whipping you for two years was too much, I was a terrible person. From now on, Xiao Lu, your suffering is over, so live a peaceful and happy life with three dishes and a soup."

After hitting the big stick, the carrot finally arrived, and it was the female monster card carrot from the underworld heiress.

My consciousness was pulled back to reality by the sound of footsteps in the rain.

In high spirits, Erii quickened her pace. The two had a rather rushed schedule for the day, with plans to visit Senso-ji Temple and have dinner at Chateau Joel Robuchon. Even while queuing for a drink, Lu Mingfei kept turning back to check on her, afraid that the underworld princess would disappear into the crowd and never be found again.

"I'm doing this for the safety of the people of Tokyo..." That's what Lu Mingfei was thinking.

His new problem has become apparent – ​​a lack of social skills. He doesn't take much initiative when building social relationships and is often led by others.

It's fine when the world is indifferent to him, but this flaw is exposed when the world is kind to him.

Have they been corrupted by the world's sugar-coated facade and turned into the lackey of a mafia boss's daughter?

The confused boy followed in the girl's footsteps.

The girl turned around and slowly paced back and forth, waiting for him.
