Time in a collapsing world

"How arrogant of you to actually come here?"

In the dark room illuminated by the oil lamp, the annoying voice of Priest Victor was heard. Kallen was startled at first, but then she regained her composure, turned around, and did not forget to put the bag full of gold coins on her back.

Priest Victor took a glance and suddenly widened his eyes, because he found that the pile of gold coins that were scattered all over his room had disappeared. Only the bag carried by the masked white-haired girl in front of him was bulging. He immediately shouted:

"My gold coins?! Where did you get so much strength? Are you a monster? You took all of them away with you?!"

Victor said and then reacted, "No, with such great strength and that white hair...you are the one from this morning? The eldest daughter of Kaslana? Kallen Kaslana?!"

"..."

Kallen thought to herself that this was not good, and suddenly she regretted not dyeing her hair as Yae Li had said before... No, the honor of the Kaslana family would not allow her to do such a thing! She had to think of a way to trick this guy first, at least she couldn't be recognized here.

Thinking of this, Karen stopped being silent. She raised the corners of her mouth, imitating the gesture of the red-haired girl when she was giving a speech. She raised a finger and pointed at Victor opposite her. She said in a slightly exaggerated and dramatic way: "Confused and pitiful person, have you also fallen into the web of love?"

This seems like a line from a script... Never mind, let’s just find a way to get away with it first!

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Victor was confused for a moment.

"Are you going to make me say her name while moaning in pain?!"

"???"

Victor finally came to his senses from his confusion and stopped listening to the guy's nonsense. Instead, he raised the oil lamp in an attempt to illuminate the other man's face more clearly, and ordered the knight following him to slowly approach with weapons raised.

But in the time it took to say these two sentences, the moon outside was covered by dark clouds, and the already pitiful light in the room seemed even dimmer.

Seeing the opportunity, Kallen flashed forward, and before several elite knights could react, she kicked the oil lamp in Victor's hand, causing it to fall to the ground. Then, at the moment when the last light was completely extinguished, she relied on her previous memory of the positions of several knights and attacked at the speed of light, knocking them to the ground.

Priest Victor was also affected and was hit on the head in the chaos. The force was quite strong, but it was obviously restrained, otherwise he would not have just fallen to the ground in a daze.

The dark clouds dispersed, and the bright moonlight illuminated a corner of the room again. Victor looked up and saw the girl in the purple thief costume standing in front of him condescendingly. A small ball in her hand fell to the ground, and a large amount of smoke sprayed out in an instant.

"Cough cough cough..."

Victor coughed for a long time and finally waited for the smoke to dissipate, but there was no trace of the young thief girl in front of him. He gritted his teeth, but inexplicably felt a little relieved.

Although all his treasured gold coins were stolen, fortunately the other party did not discover the secret of the basement. If the things in the basement were exposed, he might not even be able to keep his current position.

At the same time, several people hiding in the alley outside saw a large amount of smoke appearing from the window of the room, and also saw a nimble figure leaping out of it and successfully disappearing into the night.

"go there."

Yaeri pointed in a direction, and he roughly determined the direction where Kallen was moving.

Yaezakura nodded slightly, picked up Yaezakura and chased after her.

Yaeri didn't follow and glanced at Otto who had taken off his heavy outer skirt and was left with only a thin female undershirt. She wanted to complain that this guy was quite particular about details. But no matter what, it was still a bit eye-catching to see Otto wearing such clothes.

This is not a matter of appearance. On the contrary, Otto is particularly suitable for wearing women's clothes. It's just that Yae Ri feels inexplicably nervous. She must not raise the future heir of the Apokalis family in the wrong way.

"Follow me?"

The temperature was a little low at night, and Otto, wearing only this little bit of clothes, hugged his arms and felt a little cold, but he didn't say anything and spoke to Yaeri very naturally.

"Of course I'll go and see them helping the poor and needy. Will you go?"

"No, I can't stay outside for too long dressed like this. If other people see me, it might be hard to explain."

"You still feel ashamed..."

"...So be it."

What Otto was actually more concerned about was that this kind of attire might be seen by the tribe members and reported to the bishop, which would have some impact on his experiment.

"..."

Yaeri looked at Otto for a long time before leaving, and finally handed him her coat.

"Thank you."

Otto put on his coat and slowly lowered his arms. "I'll give it back to you."

"gone."

Yaeri called out to Theophile to follow her sisters and Kallen, and then the two of them disappeared in front of Otto.

Destiny, the ghetto.

It is desolate here both during the day and at night, and even worse at night. There are hungry old people begging God for food, and there are busy men carrying heavy boxes in the middle of the night. Even a wild cat is lying in front of a broken bowl, staring at it, wondering what it is thinking.

Ding ling——!

The crisp sound echoed in the night.

The old man looked at the gold coins falling in front of him, stunned for a long time without recovering from his shock.

The man's vision was blurred by sweat. He wiped the sweat off his face hastily after hearing the sound. Seeing the gold coins on the ground in front of him, he didn't dare to approach for a moment, fearing that he was hallucinating due to exhaustion.

Gold coins fell into the broken bowl in front of the wild cat. They bounced a few times but did not fall out. There seemed to be confusion in its pupils because it didn't know how to use this thing.

On the rooftop under the moonlight, three figures stood high up and saw the civilians below who were overjoyed because they got the gold coins. They were also sincerely happy about it.

"Sister Karen, give me some more, I haven't had enough~"

Yae Rin was holding a small bag, which was empty, but it was full of gold coins a few minutes ago.

With the help of her sister, she also experienced the joy of doing good deeds without leaving a name, but sometimes her aim was not good and it was common for her to hit someone else on the head.

"I don't have much left. There's only one stop left and we're going to call it a day~"

Kallen looked somewhere, with happiness and tenderness in her eyes, and brought the two sisters to a closed flower shop.

Going around to the window on the second floor, I could just see the girl inside lying on the bed with her mother, sleeping quietly.

Kallen signaled the two people on the roof to keep their voices down, and she gently opened the window, walked into the room, and placed the last two gold coins on the girl's pillow.

This should help them...

With satisfaction, Kallen tiptoed away from here, but she did not notice the complex bright red marks that appeared on the girl's arm.
