The Hero Rescues the Beauty (2)

After Dubian and Anna left, Rothgarr naturally didn’t care to spare a second glance at Dubian. He looked at Anna’s back and felt a little complicated when he remembered what happened last night.

After she said that, he knew that it would be useless for him to stay in Dubian’s body, so he simply left.

How many faces did this woman have?

As a person who prided himself on having vast experience and knowledge of worldly affairs, he was stunned by Anna for a moment last night. Last night, she seemed to have become a completely different person.

But looking back now, Rothgarr was a little relieved at Anna’s refusal.

She rejected Parrish, Ulysses and Victor one after the other. If she really agreed to Dubian, how bad would her taste be? When he was possessing the first three, he didn’t bother to conceal his nature at all, but it was different when he became Dubian. If she accepted Dubian, she was indirectly saying that he was inferior to Dubian.

“Huh, Roth?”

A surprised voice spoke up, one that he had been hearing for thousands of years. Rothgarr turned his head and saw Balan flying down from mid-air and landing on another tree. He curiously asked: “Why are you here? A hundred human women, how many successful marriage proposals have you made?”

Rothgarr only stared at Balan coldly: “What I want to know is why you are here.”

Balan saw that Rothgarr avoided answering his own question, and laughed: “Don’t tell me you haven’t succeeded in getting even one? Hahaha, although I had guessed that it might be the case, I still find it so funny that it actually happened!”

Rothgarr sneered: “You don’t know how complicated that woman is; you wouldn’t be able to win her either.”

Balan didn’t believe him. “Roth, I’m not you. Don’t you know how popular I am? It’s just that I have Catherine now; otherwise I could make a hundred girls fall head over heels for me in a day.”

Rothgarr ignored Balan’s boasting and raised his chin. “You go ahead and try. If you succeed, then this bet counts as my loss.”

Anna, unfortunately, only had eyes for spells; there was no way Balan would succeed.

On the topic of the bet, Balan grew interested. Seeing that Rothgarr seemed so sure that he would not be able to win that woman, he also became a bit more curious about her.

“Where is she?” Balan asked.

Rothgarr pointed to Anna who was getting further and further away.

Balan smirked. “Just watch and see!”

He flapped his wings and flew upwards, but instead of going in Anna’s direction, he went to the line of life and death.

Rothgarr didn’t care about what Balan wanted to do. He watched Anna’s back drift further and further away, thinking to himself that if she dared to agree to Balan’s courtship, he would kill her.

After a while, Balan came back, but one step ahead of him was a three-headed magic eagle. If Balan hadn’t called out in advance, Rothgarr would have long killed the beast.

The three-headed magic eagle had an IQ roughly equivalent to that of a five-year-old. It was a rare demonic creature among the Human Realm that could understand human language. As soon as Balan caught and threatened it, it obediently obeyed.

Under Balan’s instruction, the three-headed magic eagle swooped forward.

“The hero saves the damsel in distress?” Rothgarr saw through Balan’s intentions.

Balan smiled and said, “Don’t think this method is old; the old methods always prove to be the most useful. Enough talking, I need to go rescue your ‘fiancee’!”

Balan laughed, spread his wings and followed the three-headed magic eagle.

Anna was a little reluctant when she first separated from Dubian, but after a while, her expectation for the future overcame this sentiment.

After she went to Black Cloud City, she would find a place to settle down and change into suitable clothes. Otherwise, heading to the Mage Association looking like a beggar would give a bad first impression.

And after the Mage Association test, she wondered what result she would get? She didn’t have any preference, and back then, she was occupied with not being purely dark elemental and being hunted down by the Vatican.

When she entered the Mage Association, could her talent be recognized by others in the association? She didn’t know if she could find a good teacher to rely on. After the test, she estimated that she would have no gold coins to continue her in-depth study. She really hoped to find a rich and generous teacher.

Anna was deep in thought when she suddenly heard a shrieking sound behind her. She turned her head to look when suddenly, a bird-shaped monster with three heads rushed at her.

She was in shock, but it was too late to doge. The monster was going so fast; it stretched its claws out as it flew past her and the claws instantly fixed her shoulders firmly, taking her airborne.

Anna was dumbfounded.

But, wasn’t this place far enough from the line of life and death? Where did this demonic creature come from?!

She had just told Dubian that there wouldn’t be any demonic creatures; did she really just set up a flag*? Speaking of flags, Dubian’s surname really did sound phonetically like ‘flag’.

[T/N: internet slang for setting a goal for oneself]

The speed of the three-headed magic eagle was too fast. When Anna recovered her senses, she was already ten meters above the ground, which made her quickly give up the idea of using fire to

burn the enemy’s claws and force it to drop her.

Except for that “docile” demon-sheep, Anna and Dubian did not encounter any actively attacking demonic creatures when they walked along the line of life and death. Anna had no experience in fighting demonic creatures, but she knew that at this moment, her life was in her own hands. She had to remain calm.

This demonic creature didn’t kill her on the spot; was it taking her back to its lair? Perhaps it wanted to feed her to its children.

She would wait for this demonic creature to land first, and then kill it in one strike.

Anna was still thinking when she suddenly felt her shoulders loosen. In shock, she had wanted to adjust her figure and condense the fire element in her palm. She was planning to shoot the fire towards the ground to slow down her speed when she spotted a figure quickly approaching her and enveloping her in a hug.

It was the princess carry.

Anna looked up in surprise. She saw the demonic creatures flee embarrassedly, and the person hugging her… When she saw the pair of horns above the other’s head, she almost thought it was that demon, but very quickly, she realized that this wasn’t the same demon that kept eyeing her.
