In the second-floor room of the inn, the mage and his two friends sat at the dining table, while two human women stood quietly behind Lynch, hands hanging down.
"Lynch, was the explosion last time your doing? I mean the one with the silver flames attacking the Black Crystal Tower?" Deluo asked.
"Since then, the area around the Black Crystal Tower has prohibited anyone who is not a Dark Elf from approaching, and coincidentally, the intelligence we received shows that the secret underground union’s entrance is right next to the Black Crystal Tower." Deluo scratched his head, "They actually placed the entrance in the cemetery, and it took us a long time to avoid the Drow’s tracking to get in there. Thanks to those little gadgets Nimo brought, honestly, they did come in handy."
Nimo took out an amulet, waved it in the air, and immediately disappeared. Lynch could only see him using the Eye of Insight.
"Did you see Pinky? Were your meetings with the Halfling undetected?"
"Don’t worry, don’t worry." Deluo waved his hand, "Even the Dark Elves couldn’t find the two of us, how could the other guys possibly notice? Pinky is doing well; he mentioned a plan related to leaving this place..."
Lynch raised his hand to stop the warrior’s words and gestured for the two women to leave the room temporarily.
Once the door was closed again, Lynch used the Eye of Insight to watch them go down the stairs before signaling Deluo to continue.
"I must say, Lynch, you’re really cautious, though there’s no harm in being careful." Deluo said, "According to them, there’ll be an operation in 10 days, and before that, they might take action against you. He wants you to be very careful. The operation ten days later might plunge the entire city into chaos, at least the Dark Elves will be very busy. He said that at that time we can leave Ratris City calmly."
"Action? How much power does an underground secret union have to take action? And their target is the entire city? What is their goal?" Lynch frowned, staring at Deluo in confusion.
"About that, Pinky didn’t explain in detail, as he’s not a core member of the union and doesn’t know some things. However, ten days later is indeed a good chance to leave the city."
Nimo interjected, "Lynch, isn’t ten days a bit tight? Can you manage to break that tracking barrier in time?"
"Don’t worry, if time is really pressing, I can forcibly remove the barriers everyone has on them." Lynch, who studied Drow magic in the Black Crystal Tower, had gained some understanding of the Dark Elves’ peculiar barriers. With the never-ending Magic Origin Power he possessed, forcibly erasing these barriers wasn’t very difficult. "However, in doing so, you guys will suffer; the process will be extremely excruciating."
"So, does that mean we can actually leave the Dark Elf City anytime without being tracked? Just with some physical pain?" Deluo furrowed his brow.
"Yes, that can be understood that way."
"Lynch, do you know how dangerous Pinky’s situation is? Why didn’t you tell us about this earlier?" Deluo glared angrily at the mage, "Pinky is working alone in the underground union to cover for you and provide you with information. Tell me, what have you been doing?"
"Deluo, don’t be angry, calm down." Nimo pulled at the warrior’s clothes, trying to calm him down. Orıginal content can be found at novel✦fire.net
Lynch said nothing, looking seriously at Deluo.
"Calm down? I don’t want to be calm right now." Deluo pointed outside the window, "That female Dark Elf, the pale-skinned one, is she interested in you? You said you became an advisor for the first family to get into the Black Crystal Tower. Fine, I believed you."
Deluo pointed at the door, "But while Pinky lives in danger, suddenly two beautiful human women came over, calling you master. Indeed, these two women are very alluring. But you actually have time to get involved with these things! Whether they’re slaves or have some other status, I don’t care. I just want you to think about Halfling Felps’ efforts."
"Furthermore," Deluo pointed at the wall of the room, "that’s one thing, but next door, just next door, there’s even a little girl waiting for you. Your interests are way too broad, can’t you even let a little girl go?"
Lynch frowned, "Little girl? What little girl?"
