chapter 254 part 2
Judging by their figures and attire, they were likely maids from Renner's staff.
Everyone watched this scene with some confusion.
Renner said nothing. She just stood up gently, reached for the Regeneration Potion she had placed on the table earlier, and walked toward the two maids.
Under everyone's watchful eyes.
Renner carefully and gently pulled up the sleeve on one of the maid's arms.
The next moment.
All the members of Blue Rose frowned in unison.
On the maid's arm were nothing but wounds.
Renner opened the Regeneration Potion and poured it onto the wounds. Under the potion's effect, new flesh quickly grew, and the wounds healed completely.
The other maid was in a similar situation.
Amidst this atmosphere, the two maids were led away again by Climb.
Renner returned to her seat on the sofa.
It was only at this moment that Lakyus, who had been silent, showed an angry expression and spoke in a cold voice, "Who did this?"
Those maids were nobles, and they were specifically responsible for taking care of Renner. How dare they...
Lakyus's furious expression froze. Looking at the silent Renner, she quickly realized something, and her face turned ugly.
"Those nobles!"
Lakyus gritted her teeth.
"How vile. But this is normal, isn't it?" Tina said in a flat, faint voice.
"Captain, you're a noble too, you know," Tia followed up immediately.
Gagaran bared her white teeth and grinned. "If you two keep talking, watch out, or you'll get a good beating from the devil Captain."
Tia and Tina glanced at each other, then simultaneously crossed their arms and closed their mouths, their movements perfectly synchronized, like shadows.
Lakyus, long accustomed to her team members' sharp tongues, sighed.
But then.
What did this matter have to do with Lord Tang?
"Your Highness is worried about the slaves, right?" Tang Zheng said faintly.
"You are truly remarkable, Lord Tang."
Renner's deep blue eyes looked deeply at Tang Zheng, and she forcefully squeezed her hands hidden under her skirt.
The scene just now could have been interpreted in multiple ways, yet Tang Zheng had immediately pinpointed the thought that was truly on her mind.
Renner's heart raced with excitement. Her legs rubbed together gently, yet her expression became even more sacred and solemn. "When I think that even the maids are affected like this, the persecution suffered by the slaves of even lower status must be even more severe."
"The effect of the alchemy potion you created is so good, but for the slaves, it might not necessarily be a good thing."
The corner of Tang Zheng's mouth twitched. He suddenly understood why the Blood Emperor had ranked Renner as the most detestable woman in his heart.
"Eight Fingers!" Lakyus said, as if a light had dawned on her. The two words left her mouth, and her green eyes grew stern.
Gagaran's expression changed. She immediately realized that their devil Captain was probably getting lost in her own emotions again.
That would be one thing, but she was worried that Lakyus might rashly agree to something that violated the Adventurer's Guild regulations.
Gagaran raised her thick arm and nudged Evileye, who had been quiet all this time.
"Captain, you forgot about Tina," Evileye's peculiar, accented tone sounded from behind her mask.
"Oh!"
Lakyus snapped back to her senses and couldn't help but slap her forehead. She first looked apologetically at Renner, then said, "Before this, there was something I forgot to explain to Lord Tang."
"As a sign of good faith, regarding the Ijenia assassination organization, all pursuit of you has been completely canceled. In the future, they will not pursue members of the Free Will adventurer team either."
Lakyus's sudden announcement also gave Tang Zheng an opportunity to change the subject.
"I see. That explains why no more assassins have shown up recently."
Tang Zheng wore a look of realization.
"So, can we exchange for that set of assassin's equipment?" Lakyus glanced at Enri, who was sitting at the edge.
Tina's voice, neither loud nor soft, spoke faintly, "The Captain finally remembered the real business."
This remark made Lakyus look a little embarrassed.
Enri stiffened, subconsciously tightening her grip on the assassin's magic items she was wearing. These were things the Lord had given her.
"That is our loot."
Tang Zheng glanced at Enri and shook his head. "Sorry, I refuse."
Lakyus was stunned for a moment. She felt that she now understood what Renner must have felt when she was rejected.
He looked so easygoing, but in reality, he was not easy to deal with at all.
"Honestly."
Evileye stood up from the sofa, her black-patterned mask facing Tang Zheng directly. "Adventurers should really talk like adventurers. Loot, you say?"
"Then let's have a fight. If we win, it'll be our loot."
"Huh?" Lakyus was dumbfounded.
Gagaran and the others also looked completely surprised. They never expected that Evileye, who was usually indifferent to everything, would make such a move.
Just then.
*Knock! Knock!*
With two knocks, the door was pushed open directly.
Two figures walked in from outside. Renner, who had been sitting on the sofa, narrowed her beautiful eyes and immediately stood up, a look of reverence on her face.
"My two elder brothers," Renner said with a bow.
The sturdy and burly First Prince and the portly Second Prince both had smiles on their faces.
"It looks very lively in here, Lana."
The Second Prince, Zanac, stood behind the First Prince, the corners of his mouth turned up.
