Grandmaster Hunter of Age of Mythology
Chapter 16: The Assassin's Minion Who's Short of Money
Britney soaked comfortably in the bathtub, enjoying the pleasant feeling brought by the warm water and delicate spicy foam.
Time passed by minute by minute, and before she knew it, more than an hour had passed, but she didn't notice it at all. Finally, when she stood up from the bathtub, her whole body exuded a charming fragrance, as if she had just experienced a wonderful aromatherapy journey.
The bathing spices provided by the hotel are indeed extraordinary, and the unique fragrance makes people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves. These spices are packed in exquisite ceramic bottles, which look quite artistic.
Britney carefully examined the bottle in her hand and found that there was about half a jar of spices left. She thought to herself: "Such a good thing cannot be wasted, why not take it back as a souvenir!" So she put it into her space ring without hesitation.
After taking a bath, Britney put on her bathrobe, walked to the window and sat down, gently pushed open the blinds, and the fresh and pleasant air rushed in. She took a deep breath and felt the beautiful breath of nature. Then, she untied the towel wrapped around her head and let her beautiful golden long hair fall freely like a waterfall and flutter gently in the breeze. The sunlight fell on her through the window, adding a bit of mysterious and charming charm to her.
After a short break, Britney began to enjoy a cup of fragrant coffee. She picked up the iron kettle on the table and carefully poured the boiling hot water into the cup, watching the coffee powder gradually dissolve and the rich aroma gradually spread. Then, she picked up the cup, sipped the delicious coffee, and picked up a book beside her to read.
While waiting for the store to deliver dinner, Britney immersed herself in a sea of books, forgetting all her worries and fatigue. She knew she would have to travel again tomorrow, so she decided to rest early tonight to get enough rest.
After all, the goods she saw at the magic academy's market on weekdays were far superior to those here in terms of quality and variety, especially the women's products. In comparison, this place really didn't arouse her interest in shopping.
Late at night, she, who had already entered into meditation, suddenly woke up. Her first reaction was to hold her breath, take out her staff and robe from the space ring and put them on, and she was fully armed in an instant.
Then he lay down calmly and pretended to be unconscious, because there was something wrong with the smell in the air, a strange fragrance that came for no reason and was particularly pleasant, and its effect was to make people drowsy.
Sure enough, her door was making a slight creaking sound...
Not long after, a figure quietly sneaked into the room and gently closed the door. However, this person did not act rashly, but carefully observed the surroundings, and only after confirming that it was safe did he move step by step towards the target.
"Tsk tsk tsk, she is indeed a noble lady! That mellow and rich aroma... aha! It turns out to be the top-grade Fire Island coffee and precious honey wine from Phoenix Trading Company. Such taste is truly extraordinary!" He murmured softly.
Then, he lit a candle, and the faint candlelight instantly illuminated the entire room. When he glanced at the clothes rack, he saw a piece of exquisite leather armor, but there was no sign of any suitcase.
"Damn it! I thought she was a fat sheep from outside the area, but she turned out to be a local, without any suitcases or anything. Forget it, let's see if this woman is pretty, so that I can have some fun first. Even if she covers her face, so what? It can arouse my endless imagination..."
A sly smile appeared on his face as he secretly planned his next plan.
As an authentic magician, she was naturally ineffective against this inferior drug. She simply held her breath and easily resisted the drug's effects, so she was aware of everything that was happening in the outside world.
As her footsteps gradually approached the bed, Bryony suddenly leaped up like a cheetah, and the staff in her hand instantly filled with energy, ready to go. Before that, she had already skillfully completed the steps of casting the spell. A fierce whirlwind whistled out and attacked the thief directly.
Although the thief was alert, he had no way to dodge such a sudden and powerful attack. The strong wind hit him, just like being hit by a ferocious bull. The force was so great that it was astonishing. In this way, the thief was hit hard and flew out, like a kite with a broken string, and hit the wall at the door.
The fierce fighting in the room caused a great uproar, and the huge noise quickly attracted the on-duty personnel on this floor. At this moment, the thief had just woken up from his coma, and before he could fully come to his senses, he suffered another fatal blow - an extremely sharp wind blade pierced his leather armor and deeply cut his skin. The severe pain made him wake up instantly, and he screamed as if waking up from a dream:
"Damn it! You're actually a magician?"
However, Blainey did not say a word, but took out a precious scroll again without hesitation and prepared to throw it out.
This scroll was her life-saving magic weapon, and it contained extremely powerful magical power. Obviously, although the magic she had just cast succeeded in temporarily restraining the enemy, the actual damage caused was quite limited.
In other words, as long as we give the thief a chance to catch his breath, once he recovers, with our current strength, we will definitely not be his opponent.
Just as he was about to use the powerful burning spell scroll, there was a commotion outside.
"What happened to your honorable guest?"
He put away the scroll and continued to release tornadoes to deal a heavy blow to the opponent, saying, "A thief broke in. What happened?"
The hotel staff immediately opened the door with a key and caught the thief, who was spitting blood. One of them was a knight-level warrior, who was the security guard of the hotel.
Only after opening the window did she dare to take a breath, and then used a mask to hide her facial features before facing strangers again.
This battle was a close call. It seems my magic power is not enough...
"Dear magician, I'm sorry to frighten you. The thief will be sent to the city hall immediately. We will change your room and waive all fees. It is our fault that such an incident occurred..."
"Wait a minute, hold her down, I'll ask her first." Then he took out his magic academy ID card from his space ring.
The hotel staff evacuated the passengers, tied up the thief, and had him escorted by a warrior while waiting for Blainey to interrogate him.
The thief refused to say a word no matter how he was asked. He asked the warriors in the store to take off their leather armor and prepare to use some magic.
As a result, he discovered a bat pattern on his chest, which was the symbol of the Assassin's Guild. If an assassin's armor was stripped off, it would be dangerous, and he dared not reveal a single word, as he would be expelled if he leaked the secret.
Blaney smiled and said, "Brave man, let her go. He may be one of us, so we won't hold him guilty. You can go out now, and don't let anyone approach the room. Also, prepare a new room for me to move into..."
"In that case, please make yourself at your own convenience. We have prepared a vacant room for you to check in at any time!" The warrior politely left the room, and the false alarm disappeared.
Blainey said: "Friends from the Assassin's Guild, we have no grudges against each other, but things have become quite unpleasant. It's no use sending you to the City Hall. In a few days, your organization will use their connections to release you. If we force you to confess, you will probably die. This girl doesn't want to hurt you, so after asking a few questions, you can leave."
"I'm short of money and I just want to steal some. I've offended the magician and I deserve to die. If you can really let me go, I will remember your kindness forever and will be grateful forever!"
"We have no grudges against each other, and we can't do anything to you. Why don't we make friends and ask you a few things? If your answers satisfy me, I will reward you with some gold coins. Since ancient times, heroes have all fallen on hard times. This girl understands you!"
"Sir, please tell me, as long as it is not an organization secret, I will not hide anything!"
Blaney opened the assassin's heart with a few words and he was willing to answer questions. He was out of danger and there was no need to take risks again.
