Chapter 21: Hated

Irvine saw Durkelon walk away. She started toward Lorne.

“Lorne, why are you in the Sunset Mountains? And by yourself.” Irvine blinked her large emerald eyes at Lorne.

She looked very cute and playful, which was very similar to the first impression he gave Lorne.

“I came to the Sunset Mountains to train,” Lorne answered matter-of-factly. He was not too familiar with the adventurers and their daughter.

Naturally, he would not reveal his identity. If he did so, he would be the one to suffer.

There were some things that were inconvenient to tell them. Seeing Lorne’s answer, Irvine did not ask further.

She knew that Lorne had his reasons for answering this way. If she pressed on, it would only make Lorne feel disgusted with her. She was not the kind of lady who would act like a princess.

In order to prevent Irvine from asking about his background again, Lorne took the initiative to find some topics to talk about.

What they were talking about was not important. What was important was whether she would have the time to ask about his background.

Lorne was very good at chatting. In his previous life, he was also an uncle and had seen many things.

Lorne did not have to spend much effort to incorporate the pace of the conversation into his grasp. He told Irvine about the surprising events he had encountered in his previous life.

Just based on the strange things in his previous life, as well as the movie plot, he could easily adapt it and deceive the young lady.

Coupled with Lorne’s witty and humorous eloquence, when he occasionally involved some professional knowledge, he would tell Irvine what Camet had given him.

A powerful and mysterious sorcerer who was greedy for humor and fun. He was also very knowledgeable and strong. For a young girl like Irvine, part-time work was a great weapon.

The blonde lowered her head as she walked along the path between the trees, listening to Lorne’s magical observations and smiling from time to time.

In the distance, Durkelon saw this scene as well. Seeing the two of them chatting happily, Durkelon felt as if he was being stabbed.

The first time he saw Irvine in the Adventurer’s Guild, he fell in love with this blonde girl with long white legs.

That wild charm had an almost fatal appeal to the slightly cowardly Durkelon.

For the sake of the beauty before him, Durkelon had used every means possible.

This time, he even chased her all the way to the Sunset Mountains. He wanted to use this method to prove that he could also protect Irvine.

Originally he had taken the egg of a double-tailed poisonous scorpion. Durkelon had wanted to give it to Irvine and confess to him.

Unexpectedly, the Twin-Tailed Poisonous Scorpion caught up to them with the scent and they were unable to retaliate.

When they were in danger just now, Durkelon wanted to save them.

He almost felt like he was about to succeed. Soon he would be able to make Irvine his girlfriend.

However, Lorne appeared at this moment. If it weren’t for him, he would have been the one to save the father and daughter.

The most intolerable thing was that the sudden appearance of this mage seemed to pose a threat to him.

In the Twilight City, the Koren Family was known to every household. The Swordsman costume they wore was also a Senior Swordsman costume and had a very strong defense.

Looking at Lorne, who was wearing a dirty magic robe, he looked like a poor mage.

This made him look down on Lorne even more. Although Lorne had saved him just now, he did not feel that Lorne had saved him at all.

After all, he had yet to make his move. If Lorne had not made his move first, he would have been able to display his prowess.

This person must disappear! Dulkelon looked at Lorne’s back and sneered.

The group of four walked towards Sunset City with heavy hearts.

Since Lorne came to this world, he had never seen what other cities looked like. This time, he had to go and play when he had the chance.

At the same time, he could exchange the corpse of the monster in his spatial ring for money. This way, he would be able to advance from a poor man to a rich man.

After all, he had quite a few corpses in his spatial ring. Before the sun set, everyone walked into a dense forest.

According to Blumer, as long as they walked out of this dense forest, it wouldn’t be long before they reached Sunset City.

“There’s nothing we can do tonight. Let’s make do here.” Blumer led the group forward with ease and soon they saw a cave.

The cave was not deep. With just a torch, the entire cave could be seen. The surrounding stone walls also looked very dry.

There were still traces of the bonfire on the ground. It wasn’t just Blumer who often spent the night here.

“This is the place where I used to take risks and often come here to rest. Everyone can have a good sleep tonight. I’ve stayed here dozens of times and have never encountered any danger.”

After speaking, Blumer skillfully lit a bonfire, then instructed the long-legged beauty next to him, “Irvine, there’s a water source in the north of this dense forest. It’s about a few hundred meters from here. Take the water pouch and bring some water back.”

“Okay, Dad.”

As soon as the long-legged beauty made her move, Durkelon could no longer sit still. He stood quickly. “I’ll go with you.”

Lorne noticed that Blumer didn’t look happy when Durkelen chased after her.

Of course, Lorne would not ask about such matters. He only smiled and started roasting again.

“Mr. Lorne…”

“Just call me Lorne.” Lorne felt a headache coming on. He had mentioned this to Blumer many times on the way here.

But Blumer was still addressing him as’ sir ‘, which made Lorne a little embarrassed. After all, he couldn’t afford to be addressed as’ sir ‘.

“All right, Lorne. Is this your first trip to Sunset City?”

“More or less,” Lorne replied straightforwardly. “I’ve been training in the Sunset Mountains for a while now. I’m going to the Sunset City to play since I’ve never been there before.”

“I see. If you need any help in Sunset City, feel free to let me know. Our family has lived in Sunset City for decades and is no longer a small family.”

Blumer was very enthusiastic but Lorne Que shook his head. “I won’t trouble you for now. When I arrive at Setting Sun City, I should go with you to the Adventurer’s Guild. I’ve killed quite a few magical beasts as well.”

“I’ll go to the guild and exchange it for money. Then, I’ll stay in Sunset City for a few days.”

After hearing what Lorne said, Blumer still said warmly, “If you need any help in Sunset City, feel free to come find us. If it weren’t for you, we might have…”

Blumer was still unable to forget how Lorne had saved his life and the two of them continued to chat.

Suddenly, Que heard a scream from afar. Blumer’s face changed dramatically. “Crap, something happened! That was Irvine’s voice!”

As he spoke, Blumer picked up his weapon and ran out of the cave.

Lorne didn’t dare to delay, immediately chasing after Blumer..
