"Oh, by the way," Old Kohler turned around, glanced at Luke, and said, "I'll send you the repair bill later, remember to sign it."

"Why is it being sent to me?" Luke looked at old Kohler in shock. "Didn't Senior Seria say it was being sent to her?"

"How could I possibly hold her responsible? What if her mother finds out?"

Old Kohler rolled his eyes and said:

"Besides, if I send it to you, you can just ask Celia for reimbursement, right?"

“But if my sister finds out…” Luke’s expression changed instantly: “I’ll be killed.”

"Your sister?" Old Kohler chuckled strangely. "The most beautiful woman in Mona City?"

"Interesting, is she really that short-tempered in private?"

Luke realized he had said the wrong thing and quickly covered his mouth.

"Alright, I'm done teasing you."

Old Kohler picked up his toolbox and prepared to leave, saying as he went:

"I'll hand over the repair fee to Lynn and the others when they return from the guild."

Hearing what old Kohler said, Luke stood up and followed him:

"Um, if I come and help, could you give me a discount on the repair cost?"

"You?" Old Kohler turned to look at Luke, thought for a moment and said, "With your physique... you could do some manual labor."

After saying that, old Kohler nodded and said:

"Alright, follow me."

Luke breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this and quickly followed.

The two emerged from the depths of the hotel and proceeded along the road toward the entrance.

Just then, as they passed through a crossroads-like corridor, old Kohler suddenly stopped.

Seeing this, Luke stopped as well and looked at old Kohler with a puzzled expression.

"What's wrong?"

He peeked in the direction of Old Kohler and indeed saw a girl with short pink hair, who looked like a great beauty just from her back, walking quickly out of a room, stretching as she left along the corridor.

Luke lowered his voice and asked quietly, "Is there something wrong with that lady?"

Old Kohler lowered his voice and replied, "If I remember correctly, there don't seem to be any pink-haired guests among the recent residents."

"An intruder?" Luke exclaimed in surprise. "Didn't the security measures detect it?"

Old Kohler patted Luke on the shoulder speechlessly:

"I already told you, the security system was just sabotaged by Seria."

After saying that, old Kohler suddenly became suspicious: "But why does that back view look so familiar? It looks a bit like my genius cousin?"

"Huh?" Luke looked at the beautiful woman who had disappeared, then at old Kohler's pathetic state, and his expression became somewhat subtle.

*Snap!*

Old Kohler patted Luke on the head:

I saw malice in your eyes!

"...Sorry." Luke apologized, wincing in pain.

Old Kohler didn't pursue the matter further, but instead stroked his beard suspiciously:

"That's strange. That room just now... it looked like Lynn's room. How could a woman come out of his room?"

Could it be...?

"Hiss! I didn't give him the Rose Street business card either!!"

Upon hearing the words on the Rose Street card, Luke's face instantly turned red:

"Mr. Lynn... he actually ordered a home delivery service?"

"This is so embarrassing to talk about..."

Luke said it was hard to say, but his expression betrayed his anticipation.

However, the next second, Luke was hit on the head again.

"Idiot!" Old Kohler looked at Luke with disdain. "If they were really going to play this game, why would the Knightworth family only call one person?"

"You have to shout at least three times, that's the bare minimum! You little rascal!"

Three? Three?

Luke, forgetting his headache, looked at old Kohler with a mixture of shock and envy.

"Are all members of the Knightworth family this wild?"

Just then, the door opened, and Lynn and Lilia came out of the room.

Old Kohler raised an eyebrow at this, but said with a strange expression:

"Another one?"

He glanced at Lilia discreetly, his expression strange:

"A girl I've never seen before..."

"No, did this kid really yell?"

At this moment, Luke peeked out and, seeing a girl next to Lynn, hesitated before saying:

"But isn't one still missing?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Seria came out of the room.

Luke nodded subconsciously and said, "Three girls now. Sure enough, Mr. Lynn really did call for in-home service!"

At that moment, Old Kohler's expression was strange, and he quickly took two steps to the side to distance himself from Lukela.

If he wasn't mistaken, Seria should have her perception skill active all the time.

as predicted,

Seria quickly turned her head and stared in Luke's direction.

Just then, Fiona, the last to emerge from the room, stretched and turned to look at Seria, nearly jumping out of her skin in fright:

"What's wrong? Why does Mother Celia look so fierce?"

Seria said in an annoyed tone, "It's nothing, I just saw a brat who needs to be taught a lesson."

After saying that, before anyone else could speak, Seria said:

"Next, the three of you can go back to the ground in pairs. I have some mutual aid association matters to attend to."

Upon hearing this, Lynn glanced at the intersection beside him and nodded thoughtfully.

"Then remember to be careful."

Upon seeing this, Fiona scratched her cheek, and then she twitched her nose and smelled a familiar scent.

The next second, Fiona, suppressing a laugh, said:

"Since Mother Celia has said so, then you should take care of yourself. Lynn and I will be leaving now."

At this moment, Lilia, who was standing next to her, rolled her eyes and said with a grin:

"Actually, you can stay and stay with Miss Celia."

Fiona was speechless: "Hey, you gave me a fake identity when we went back to Earth, what's the meaning of you making me stay here?"

"I mean I was worried you'd miss out on entertainment," Lilia said with a grin.

“You can have fun on the ground too,” Fiona muttered.

"Stop making a fuss and let's go." Lynn had already started walking ahead.

Seeing this, Fiona and Lilia exchanged a glance and quickly followed.

Right now,

Luke stood at the corner, watching the two leave, then looked at old Kohler, who was far away from him, and a tearful smile appeared on his face.

Just then, Seria's voice came from behind.

"It seems I've been giving you less homework lately, Luke."

Luke shuddered, turned around, and found Seria standing behind him.

Immediately afterwards, he looked at the other side of the road and saw another Seria walking towards Lynn's room.

Turning my head to the side, I saw another Celia in another passage.

At this moment, old Kohler whistled: "The secret technique of the Elven royal family, Triple Illusion?"

"Then wouldn't that mean triple spellcasting?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, they've even resorted to this trick!"

Seria completely ignored old Kohler's words and said expressionlessly:

"I always thought that things turned out this way because of Fiona."

"But thinking about it carefully now, Luke, your mouth seems to be one of the root causes of the problem."

Luke's face turned deathly pale upon hearing this:

"Sister Seria, am I... still able to survive?"

“What’s the point of calling her ‘sister’ now?” Celia looked at Luke in bewilderment. “You should use the emergency contact information Flora left on you to call her back.”

Luke was now on the verge of tears: "Is this any different from telling me to die?"

“There is a difference.” Celia nodded slightly, then said expressionlessly, “The difference is probably whether you use your emergency contact or mine to contact Flora in the end.”

Luke was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then his face twisted in pain:

"Does it really have to be my sister who comes back?"

Seria then sighed softly:

"Given Fiona's current condition, we have no choice but to call Flora back."

After saying that, Seria didn't explain much to Luke, but simply said expressionlessly:

"Do you remember that book I had you study before, 'The Mathematics of Spellcasting That Even Kobolds Can Learn'?"

"I...I remember." Luke thought of that popular science book that could lull him to sleep with just one glance and gave him excellent sleep quality.

“Then get ready,” Celia said expressionlessly. “Next, before Flora replies, if you haven’t learned that book and done 10 sets of exercises, I’ll tell Flora that you’ve secretly hidden the little cards from Rose Street.”

Luke laughed on the spot upon hearing this.

It was a laugh born of utter despair!

-----------------

Rock Town, the elevator on the far left.

Lynn stood on the descending elevator, looking up at the forest grounds of the underground city in front of him.

At this moment, Fiona ran her fingers through her hair, which Lynn had dried earlier in the room:

"This feels so good!"

"By the way, Lynn, do you think Seria might beat that kid Luke to death?"

"You're asking me that?"

Lynn leaned against the railing, a smile on her face, and said:

Instead of thinking about this, you should think about how to explain things later.

"Huh?" Fiona was taken aback and said in surprise, "Can't we just talk to Mira directly?"

Lynn smiled wryly.

Lilia, who was standing next to her, also smiled and whispered:

"Tell the head of the Adventurers' Guild that I need a fake identity to join the Gospel Society?"
