Chapter 24
The location was Rome Airport.
Since Gozo Island was a Demon Clan Special Zone, only permitted commercial flights were allowed to enter.
The airport lobby was bustling with noise.
Sendo Muki A Ya stretched lazily. Even a Witch would feel exhausted after sitting on a plane for over ten hours.
As for Nanko Na Yue, she remained as usual.
It was clear she had deliberately blocked the doll’s perception of fatigue.
“Come on, Na Yue-chan, let’s go have some fun.”
“This trip isn’t for you to play around.”
Nanko Na Yue dodged Bai Ye’s hand as he attempted to pat her head, speaking with a hint of helplessness.
“Eh? If we’re not here to play, then why did Na Yue-chan bring me here? Could it be… you have ulterior motives for me?”
Bai Ye’s face showed a surprised expression.
“But if it’s Na Yue-chan, then I’ll reluctantly accept you.”
“Isn’t it because you took on the commission?!”
Hearing this.
The long-haired black-haired Witch instantly widened her eyes.
If it wasn’t for this guy taking on that troublesome commission, she would still be comfortably enjoying the air conditioning in her home on Genso Island!
Now he’s acting like he doesn’t remember?
“I know, but I forgot.”
Bai Ye chuckled.
Honestly.
He wasn’t interested in this Black Death Emperor faction at all.
If it wasn’t for the 12th being here, he wouldn’t even want to come this far.
But since he’s here, might as well enjoy it.
Seeing Bai Ye’s carefree attitude, Nanko Na Yue gritted her teeth in anger.
She felt like she would eventually be driven crazy by this guy.
“Hehe, Na Yue, after all this time together, don’t you understand Master’s personality?”
Sendo Muki A Ya chuckled and spoke.
One of her few pleasures in life was watching Nanko Na Yue get outsmarted by Bai Ye.
It made her feel good.
“He only does things he’s interested in, if you force him, something bad might happen.”
“I know, you don’t need to keep reminding me.”
Nanko Na Yue swallowed down her anger.
But Sendo Muki A Ya did remind her.
Her primary task was to keep an eye on Bai Ye, this ticking time bomb.
The Snake Woman’s commission was second priority.
After all, she knew which was more important.
Without a solution for Bai Ye, she could only follow his wishes without crossing any lines.
If he wants to play.
Then let him play.
After all, this place wasn’t too far from Gozo Island.
Using spatial teleportation wouldn’t take too long.
However, at that moment.
The crowd nearby started to stir.
People’s faces showed panic, they automatically parted a path.
Then, a short man wearing a felt hat appeared, waving a dagger and charging through the crowd.
“Get out of my way!”
People who couldn’t dodge were either shoved aside roughly, or cut by the dagger.
Seeing the blood, nearby people shrieked in alarm, turning to flee.
Bai Ye witnessed this.
And couldn’t help but laugh.
“Foreign countries are really free, at least where I used to live, no one would dance around an airport with a knife.”
Dancing? What dancing!
It’s clearly a robbery, alright!
Nanko Na Yue harshly criticized in her mind.
While she was a Genso Island Attack Mage, she didn’t plan to intervene.
It’s just a robber, the police here will soon arrest him.
However, things didn’t go as planned.
The robber with the dagger, in his panic, charged directly towards Bai Ye.
“Get out of my way!”
Instead of dodging them, the robber, with his mind on edge, had lost his reason.
It looked like a family of three.
All weaklings.
But seeing them standing still, his anger flared, and he plunged the dagger towards Bai Ye, who was standing at the front.
“If you want to die, then don’t blame me.”
Seeing this.
Bai Ye’s face broke into a smile.
Just as he was about to blast the man in front of him, Nanko Na Yue made her move.
Then, the robber, as if he had hit an invisible wall, flew backward several meters.
The crowd let out another gasp.
“Na Yue-chan is protecting me? You really do have feelings for me.”
Hearing this.
Nanko Na Yue twitched the corner of her mouth.
Can you be any more self-absorbed?
Besides, if she hadn’t intervened, that robber would be dead right now, wouldn’t he?
While she had no sympathy for criminals, she didn’t want to cause trouble abroad.
She had a public post to consider.
“Don’t explain, explaining is hiding, hiding is the truth.”
Bai Ye didn’t care.
Nanko Na Yue stayed silent, clearly not wanting to argue with him.
Just then.
A black-haired boy squeezed through the crowd and ran over.
When he saw the pickpocket lying on the ground groaning, with blood on his face, he was startled.
“Kojo-kun!”
Then, a girl with simple clothes and a ponytail, with cute features, followed behind him, panting.
“Really, you just ran out like that, what if you got hurt?”
The girl raised her eyebrows angrily.
“It’s okay, besides, the robber seems to have been dealt with.”
He pointed to the man on the ground.
And beside the man, a pink wallet lay on the ground.
“Eh? Really, but how did this happen?”
The girl’s eyes widened.
They were in unfamiliar territory, she thought she wouldn’t be able to catch up.
“It was the big brother and big sister over there.”
The boy looked towards Bai Ye.
Out of the crowd, only they had unchanged expressions, in stark contrast to the nearby people.
And he also saw.
The robber fell in front of them.
“Eh? They have black hair just like us?”
The girl’s face lit up when she saw Bai Ye and the others.
“Did you stop him for us?”
“Yes, little sister, what’s your name?”
Bai Ye asked with a smile.
“My name is Aogami Saki, this is my older brother, Aogami Kojo, thank you, big brother! The wallet had money and my passport, if I’d lost it, I wouldn’t know what to do.”
Hearing this, the girl named Aogami Saki bowed deeply in gratitude.
The boy named Aogami Kojo followed suit.
Truly, island people, their respect for bowing is instilled from a young age.
But Bai Ye didn’t expect to randomly encounter the male protagonist of this world.
And it seems the timing is perfect.
This also proves that the Fourth True Ancestor’s ruins have only just begun to be excavated.
