After waiting for an entire night, there was no movement from the two people on the ground, just like two corpses.
Thus, Rollin leaned against the wall and fell asleep until noon when Rollin suddenly heard a violent cough and woke up in shock.
The first thing he did when he opened his eyes was to check the elf’s condition. He found that the elf was able to open her eyes, but she was unable to speak.
Her eyes, which were already dim, were filled with fear as she looked at Rollin. She was afraid that he would do something terrible to her.
“Don’t be afraid! I saved you from the Count’s mansion after I was done. Everything is fine now!”
“Don’t make any more noise. If anyone finds out about this place, I won’t be able to protect you!”
The elf seemed to understand what Rollin was saying. After blinking her eyes, she went back to rest quietly..
After a while, he heard a sound coming from her stomach.
Rollin took some water and fed it to her mouth. Then, he said, “I’ll buy something for you to eat later. No matter what happens up there, you can’t make any sound!”
“Got it?”
The elf was too heavily injured to move, so she could only wink at Rollin.
Receiving her reply, Rollin opened the door and walked out. Then, he covered up the passage.
He first confirmed that there was no problem, then turned around and left the small, shabby house.
After coming out, Rollin didn’t go directly to the food shop. Instead, he went to the Butcher’s shop.
Seeing that Rollin had come, the Butcher immediately stood up and patted him on the shoulder, saying, “You must be exhausted from working so late last night!”
“Take this set of clothes as my bonus for you. You don’t have to return it to me.”
“But remember to protect this set of clothes. The next time you have such a job, you have to wear this set of clothes to go.”
Rollin nodded and thanked him. He then changed out of the clothes and put on his shabby clothes.
After changing out of the clothes, the Butcher handed over ten silver coins and instructed, “Don’t tell anyone about what happened last night!”
“No matter who asks, you just have to say you don’t know!”
After taking the coins, Rollin nodded and left the Butcher’s hut.
‘I could have secretly moved out of here in the next two days, but now I can’t! I have an elf by my side! I can’t get out.’
After putting the ten silver coins into the bag, Rollin thought about what to do as he walked.
At this time, the other person who went with him to move the coins last night brought a few men with him.
He could vaguely hear them talking about taking turns to earn money.
“Boss, I received five silver coins at the latest! That guy has worked longer than me!”
“He will definitely earn more than me!”
“Is that so? Looks like we can find a good place to have fun today!”
The leader looked up at the sky and found that it was not appropriate to do bad things under the sun.
“You guys follow him first. We’ll go look for him at night!”
“If we act in broad daylight, we might lure that old Butcher out. We won’t be able to explain it clearly then!”
When his subordinates heard this, they all nodded and followed behind Rollin from afar.
At this moment, Rollin was still thinking about how he could leave this place!
As he thought about it, he came to the entrance of the food shop.
He walked in. He had just gotten the money that day, so he had splurged and bought a lot of fresh pastries.
The owner of the shop had seen him on the second floor last night, so he gave him a big discount on account of the Butcher.
Holding the heavy food, Rollin habitually went to the riverside and found a quiet place to sit down.
He opened the bag and started to eat.
The few people who followed him not far away saw Rollin eating so fiercely. They could not help but drool.
One of them could not stand it anymore and immediately wanted to snatch it.
Soon, he was stopped by another person. “Be patient! When he gets home, we’ll take action!”
“At night, each of us can drink on a girl’s stomach!”
Hearing these words, the few people beside him could not help but fantasize.
After eating, Rollin felt a strange feeling. He could always feel that someone was staring at him.
Thus, he activated his Magic Power Fluctuation. As expected, he saw four people in the forest not far behind him.
‘These aren’t the people who went with me to carry the bodies last night. This idiot actually brought people to intercept me!’
Although Rollin was very angry, he didn’t show it on his face.
As usual, he stood up and did some stretching exercises. Then, he took the rest of the food and walked towards the small forest in the distance.
After entering the forest, Rollin quickly ran. The speed at which he ran shocked even himself.
He didn’t expect his body to be so light. It only took him a minute to run out of this forest.
The four people following behind him also entered the forest. They walked around for more than ten minutes before they came out.
After shaking off the people following behind him, Rollin immediately made a few twists and turns and came to the desolate house.
This time, he was very alert. He immediately cast a spell to check the surroundings before entering the underground passage in the room.
Hearing the footsteps, the elf was so excited that she wanted to say something, but she did not manage to do so.
She let out a violent cough. “Cough, cough!”
Rollin immediately covered the door and ran over.
He checked the condition of the elf in front of him and found that there were not too many problems.
He got up and took out the food and fed it to her piece by piece.
The food in his hand was already the better food for the poor, but it did not suit her appetite.
After eating two mouthfuls, she closed her mouth.
Helpless, Rollin could only say, “This is the poor district. I already have the best and most nutritious food in my hands.”
“If you don’t eat it, I have no other way!”
After hearing Rollin’s words, the elf opened her mouth again and ate the whole piece with great difficulty. She blinked her eyes.
“You’re full?”
“Then, I’ll go feed the other one!”
Rollin had been doing this boring and monotonous thing for more than a year.
Although he wanted to give up on her every time, his kind nature made it impossible for him to leave her behind.
In the past, Rollin had saved many women or men who were seriously injured, but these people quickly died because they could not bear the pain and tragic memories.
But all this did not make Rollin give up the rescue. Instead, he persisted.
Until now, he has successfully saved two people.
