My older sister is a villainous rich girl

Moreover, it's a legendary healing magic blessed by the gods...

While the two on the other side were still questioning their existence, the little boy Rock had already slowly woken up.

"Sister Tasia...am I dead?"

He opened his eyes and gazed at the beam of soft, peaceful light emanating from above.

Tasia said irritably, "Not yet."

“Can you stand up? Try,” she asked.

As if reminded by those words, the little boy realized he was in reality and slowly pushed himself up from the ground.

There seem to be no other problems.

Only then did Tasia feel relieved.

Although my healing magic is constantly improving, it cannot heal every injury. Every time I heal someone, it feels like I have a duty to "make someone healthy," and if I fail to meet expectations, I can't help but feel guilty.

Therefore, each successful treatment filled her with gratitude from the inside out.

—It's so good that you're all safe and sound.

Because the two gang members were a little far away, Rock didn't actually see them at first glance after waking up.

He first glanced curiously at Wayne and Geli.

"Are these two older brothers and sisters friends of Sister Tasia?" the little boy asked curiously.

Compared to Wayne, who was dressed in coarse cloth, his attention was quickly drawn to Goli, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes.

He glanced at Ge Li, then clapped his hands in sudden realization.

"I know! You must be the rumored best friend of Sister Tasia, the duke's daughter! Your name is... Miss Chris, right?!"

Seemingly thrilled that he had guessed the correct answer, he wore a delighted smile.

Gan!

If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute...

With a pained expression, Wayne felt a chilling glare from Ge Li behind him.

To divert everyone's attention, he decisively raised his hand to one side.

A gigantic hand radiating intense light emerged from the void.

With a clench of his fist, Wayne grabbed the two young men who had been standing to the side, seemingly stunned, and pulled them over like chicks being lifted up.

The palm tossed the two men in front of Rock, then slowly dissipated into specks of light and disappeared.

“Wow, wow, wow—” Rock stared at Wayne’s hands, making strange exclamations.

"What kind of magic is this?!" His eyes lit up.

It's hard not to wonder if he would want to detach Wayne's hand separately and take it home if it were possible.

“This is earth magic.” Wayne frowned, speechless. “Do you know these two people? According to them, you offended them in the past?”

Upon hearing his question, the little boy seemed to suddenly remember something, and his expression changed.

"them……"

He pointed at the two men who had fallen to the ground and shouted, "They're human traffickers!"

The two young men, who had been lying on the ground and dared not move, immediately sprang up when they heard him say these words.

"You bullshit!"

“We’re just ordinary gang members. I know that the ant-like magician might look down on us… but this is our livelihood.”

They started playing the victim.

They recounted how difficult their family circumstances were, forcing them to live a life of danger and fighting every day. In reality, they were all fine young people who loved their families, their jobs, and society, and who, after being enlightened by the magician, had decided to become good people from now on.

Standing to the side, Wayne couldn't help but laugh.

As a child, Rock had probably never met such a shameless person before, and his expression completely broke down: "I...I heard everything!"

Fearing that his older siblings would think he was lying, he said impatiently, "I wanted to go to my classmate's house to play by a newly discovered shortcut. I had to crawl through a dog hole, and just as I crawled inside, I heard the two of them talking outside the wall."

"They also said that tonight they would hide all the kidnapped children in a warehouse of a chamber of commerce in Lane 11 of the back street!"

After Rock accurately stated the specific location, the two men trembled, their eyes darting around, and they tried to continue their evasive arguments.

But Wayne had no patience to watch them act anymore, so he used his magic to knock them both unconscious.

“Let’s just charge straight in,” Wayne said.

Ge Li suggested, "We can leak the information to the city guards."

...I'm afraid there might be corrupt members in the city guard.

It's really hard to say which side the reinforcements that arrive will be on.

“No!” Rock also refused the suggestion just as urgently. “I’ve heard that there isn’t a single good person in the city guard.”

Hey, is it really okay for adults to tell you things like this?

After saying that, he looked up at Goethe with an air of familiarity and pleaded, "Doesn't Duke Winchester have a very powerful mage corps? Sister Chris, let's go back and get reinforcements!"

Wayne: !!!

Young man, you've narrowed your path!

The alarm bells in my mind were ringing wildly, and I wondered if it was just my imagination, but even the wind around me seemed to become erratic.

Most of Ge Li's face was hidden under her veil, making it impossible to see her expression.

However, a hint of murderous intent could still be gleaned from her extremely cold tone.

"I...no, Chris..."

She said the sentence almost word by word.

Seemingly sensing the ominous atmosphere in the air, Rock shut his mouth in fear, glancing at Ge Li's somewhat angry expression as he silently retreated behind Tasia.

Wayne chuckled dryly a few times, took two steps forward, and subtly blocked Ge Li's view, separating him from the little boy's line of sight.

"This young lady is another friend, and also your sister Tasia's classmate~"

He tried to ease the tension.

To prevent the brat from stirring things up further, Wayne thought for a moment and said to Tasia, "There are two options now."

"Firstly, take this kid with us."

Secondly, we won't take him with us.

As soon as Wayne finished speaking, Rock jumped up and shouted, "I want to go! I want to go!"

At the same time, Tasia answered without hesitation, "Don't take him."

Wayne nodded in satisfaction.

Children do not have the right to express their opinions.

Thus, Rock's own thoughts were completely ignored.

Chapter 302 Those rejected by fate are rejecting fate.

The capital's markets were further divided into front street, middle street, and back street.

Because it was located deep within the alleyways, the backstreet served primarily as a storage area. Goods intended for sale at the market, transported from all over the country and even from other countries, were mostly stored there.

However, land prices in the capital are extremely high.

For ordinary people, owning a warehouse here and living a comfortable life by collecting rent every month is already a dream come true.

Only the most powerful nobles could afford to buy an entire alley.

For example, the Edgeworth family.

“There are twenty-one alleys on the back street, and my family owns the seventh and eighth alleys,” Ge Li explained in a low voice. “Some of the warehouses that are not in use will be sublet to collect rent.”

"Eleventh Lane originally belonged to Earl Chapman."

"However, I don't know if he sublet it."

After taking the little boy home, Wayne, Geli, and Tasia went to "Backstreet Lane 11" that Rock had mentioned earlier.

"Wow, this whole street is like that? They must be so rich..." Wayne exclaimed, completely oblivious to the world around him.

Ge Li, whose little hand he was holding, glared at him and gave a disdainful "humph".

The Earl of Chapman may not have a very high rank in terms of his title alone, but his status is exceptional.

He is a descendant of a princess from the previous two generations and has royal blood.

At the same time, he is also a close advisor to His Majesty the King, and has been trusted by him for many years. He even serves as one of the directors of Seiki Academy as a representative of the royal family.

Despite this, he hasn't been having a very pleasant time lately.

Because of his involvement in the crimes of Lord Alek, he was severely reprimanded by His Majesty the King.

After paying a hefty fine, the count is now reflecting on his actions in seclusion.

Wayne pondered the information about him.

Tasia withdrew from her perception state and said, "There doesn't seem to be any particular magical fluctuation, but there's a lot of weak energy reaction coming from a certain warehouse."

"It's probably that one."

Wayne instructed the two men beside him: "Our priority is to rescue the children, not to fight them. But if a fight breaks out, make a big commotion, and try to attract people from Middle Street and Front Street."

As he spoke, he looked at Ge Li again.

“Actually, the best solution is for Tasia and me to go first, and Geli to go back and bring the Edgeworth family to clean up the mess.”

Ge Li shook his head, refusing to let go of him.

"No, that would be too dangerous for you."

“I’m much stronger than you think, have you forgotten?” He winked, hinting.

Perhaps thinking that Wayne even dared to climb the Edgeworth wall, this was probably nothing to him, her expression became slightly unnatural.

but--

If it's nothing, why is she unwilling to be with me, but insists on being with Tasia?

Ge Li became alert.

"...I don't care, I'm going to be with you."

She insisted on it and refused to budge.

Seeing her resolute attitude, Wayne had no choice but to back down. "Alright... be careful later, people who dare to do this kind of thing are crazy."

After exchanging ideas with Ge Li and Tasia about how to coordinate, he carefully made his way towards the target warehouse.

The lighting was sparse, with only a small area illuminated at the entrances of a few warehouses.

The moonlight is dim tonight as well.

Thick clouds obscured the entire sky, and only when the night wind blew them open, occasionally revealing a small gap, could one be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the white corner of a crescent moon.

A gang member, holding a long knife, stood guard at the gate, kicking pebbles on the ground out of boredom.

In a little while, someone from above will come to count the items, and then my task for the day will be considered complete.

Thinking of this, he relaxed a little.

This job can be difficult in some ways, but easy in others.

Feeling that he was gradually becoming more skilled, he was looking forward to where he would go to have some fun after receiving his salary when he suddenly heard a rustling sound not far away.

He was startled and instinctively drew his longsword from its sheath, gripping the hilt in his hand.

Did I finally run into trouble today?

The direction the knife tip was pointing towards was completely dark, and nothing could be seen.

The long street paved with blue bricks seemed to lead into the mouth of a monster eager to devour people.

In the darkness, something seemed to be moving...
