Threads of black mist emerged from the two corpses. Donald flipped through the looming images on the Tome of Dominion, and shook his head in disappointment after a while.

​​

"It's just two scumbags, it's really disappointing..."

​​

There may not have been a big enough improvement in talent awakening recently, but he has spent a lot of time on familiarizing and discovering his existing abilities. The power of the devil in the magic book is only part of it. Most of it is the ability to control the magic tome itself.

​​

The absence of a demon's name and clear image display means that the quality of the demon's power fragments is very poor, and the corresponding ability to be displayed will be greatly reduced. Donald sinks his heart and can feel the ability to travel through a shadow.

​​

He waved his hand to summon two flames and dealt with the corpses on the ground. Donald turned to take Finger, who was running from the side, and turned his attention away from the fragments of demon power left by the two demon contractors, and put it on the event itself. .

​​

Donald clearly remembered that the two demon contractors should be selling tickets at the entrance of the Opera House.

​​

coincide?

​​

In Donald's view, this is not the case. If the demon contractor wants to hide his identity, it is impossible for him to choose such a role that often needs to face the public. Who can guarantee that there will be no apostles of major sects among the people who come to listen to the opera?

​​

The crux of the question is why these two demon contractors are there.

​​

This was completely figured out when Donald left the factory and returned to the door of the Opera House!

​​

They don't want to hide their identities, but the other way around, they just want someone to see their existence.

​​

Naturally, this person cannot be Donald.

​​

Who would go to the opera house specifically to find someone?

​​

This range may be a bit broad. Rao is that Donald has no way to determine a direction in a short time, but this does not prevent him from telling Xia Ruisi the news. After all, she was in East Germany by that demon contractor. After chasing all the way, it must be within this range.

​​

With that in mind, Donald suddenly thought of something that he had never considered carefully before.

​​

Why did the Devil Contractor want to hunt down Sharis?

​​

Natural opposition?

​​

This is of course a reason, but the crux of the problem is why this demon contractor is so relentless in pursuit, even exposing himself to the hunter's stalking to do it.

​​

Even if the price is that after killing the Chosen One, he will be found and killed by the witcher.

​​

This is undoubtedly an unreasonable choice.

​​

He tried to contact Sharis through spiritual communication, and found that the other party was a little far away from him. Donald could only do the next best thing. He went back to the place where Barlow parked and told him the news.

​​

"Did you find the Demon Contractor in the Rock Castle, or at the door of the Opera House?"

​​

Barlow's first expression when he heard the news was stunned.

​​

That's right, it's just stunned, it seems a little unbelievable.

​​

This is a bit strange. Donald thought that although demon contractors are rare, Sharis and Barlow should have seen it. Rock Castle is more or less a medium-sized city, and there is a possibility of demon contractors appearing.

​​

In fact... Donald soon discovered that Barlow's discourse seemed to be centered in the second half of the discourse.

​​

"Does the entrance of the Opera House have any special meaning?"

​​

Donald doesn't have much research on the Demon Contractor, and he is even more puzzled by the hidden meaning of the Opera House.

​​

"No, this... it's just a bit of an accident."

​​

Barlow obviously wanted to cover up something, realized that he had made a blunder, and immediately changed the subject and said,

​​

"I'll tell Ms. Sharis the news now, please wait a moment."

​​

Watching Barlow trot into the hotel room, he should be planning to use some special method to contact Xia Ruisi. Donald could only find a sofa on the first floor of the hotel and sit down first, and asked the hotel owner for some snacks. Pass the time with Finger.

​​

Fortunately, Barlow didn't make Donald wait too long. After about ten minutes, he ran down from the second floor again.

​​

"Ms. Harris' friends have agreed to meet you, so if you have time now, I can take you to meet them."

​​

Barlow, who was instructed by Sharis, was holding a horse whip in his hand, and his eyes were a little warmer when he looked at Donald.

​​

"Of course, go now."

​​

For the friend of the Chosen One, Sharis, Donald has been looking forward to it for a long time.

​​

But as he got into Barlow's carriage and started down the street, a strange familiarity began to flood into Donald's mind.

​​

Familiar cafes, familiar streets, flyers in the hands of passers-by and colorful satin left after the parade passed by...

​​

Curling his fingers and tapping the side of the carriage twice, Donald leaned on the seat inside and said loudly, "Barlow, I have something to ask."

​​

"You ask."

​​

Barlow's voice came back mixed with the noise outside.

​​

"Are we going to the Opera House in Rock Castle now?"

​​

Donald finally checked the situation outside and asked.

​​

Barlow outside the carriage was silent for a while before replying, "Have you been here just now?"

​​

"It's more than just coming..."

​​

This sentence Donald didn't raise his tone, just whispered to himself.

​​

The carriage stopped outside the opera house. Donald looked at Charis who was waiting for him at the door. After getting off the carriage, he pursed his lips and took the initiative to meet him.

​​

"You found the Demon Contractor in the Rock Castle?"

​​

There was no one else beside Sharis, and Donald glanced left and right but couldn't see the friend she mentioned.

​​

"That's right, and the location where they appeared is right here."

​​

While speaking, Donald's eyes suddenly stopped on Charis, and he frowned and thought for a while.

​​

Previously, his guess about the motives of the two demon contractors was that they were here to wait for the arrival of a certain target, but now he saw Charis appearing here.

​​

If she didn't come here earlier, does that mean that Sharis will face the two demon contractors?

​​

Taking a step back, Donald can vaguely guess the current strength of Xia Ruisi. Apart from the extremely powerful god-given talent she possesses as a chosen person, her own combat effectiveness is not strong.

​​

Otherwise, she would not have been chased and killed by a demon contractor with a mid-level awakening strength, but her god-given talent is biased towards the auxiliary type of seduction-like ability.

​​

Stephanie still has emotional talent for fighting, she obviously doesn't have this ability.

​​

"it's here?"

​​

The expression on Xia Ruisi's face looked even more surprised than Barlow heard the news just now, and then she replied almost without thinking,

​​

"Impossible, there is absolutely no demon contractor here!"

​​

"Why are you so sure?"

​​

Donald faintly noticed something at this time, but he didn't say it clearly.

​​

"Because here... this is my friend's territory. If a demon contractor appears, she will definitely notice it immediately."

​​

After pondering for two seconds, Charis still revealed the reason.

​​

"Although I really want to agree with your statement, it's not the case, Ms. Sharis, you should understand that I'm not free enough to use a demon contractor to joke with you!"

​​

Donald didn't want to argue with Sharis here about the existence of the Devil Contractor he spoke of.

​​

In fact, he somewhat regrets it now. Maybe it would have been a better decision to leave a living, at least now that he can directly give evidence.

​​

For Donald's certainty, Charis didn't know what to say for a while. She knew that the former had no reason to deceive her on this kind of thing, but at the same time she had confidence in her friend.

​​

"There may be some kind of misunderstanding. Come with me, the concert in the theater is about to start. I'll tell you when I go inside. It's not convenient to talk about those things outside."

​​

After hesitating for a while, Charis was still going to tell Donald about the current situation first. The latter had no intention of arguing on the street, so she nodded and followed her in.

​​

As a former art city, Rock Castle is naturally not low in the layout and architectural level of the entire opera house.

​​

Rao is still preserved as a symbol of the city's art-popular period despite the rapid development of the Industrial Revolution.

​​

"I deliberately asked for two positions based on the internal relationship. On the second floor, I can see the whole picture of the opera, and I don't need to be influenced by the people around me."

​​

Xia Ruisi stood at one end of the corridor at the entrance of the Opera House and pointed to the balcony-like structures extending out from the left and right sides of the second floor.

​​

"Uh...Should I say thank you for your invitation?"

​​

Donald spends most of his leisure time reading various spell books or some non-religious people's descriptions of gods. Opera, the most common pastime for modern people, is extremely rare for him, so these arrangements are right for him. It's something of a novelty to him.

​​

"It's not necessary, I just hope you can help me more in the future."

​​

Take Donald around from the other side of the theater, and after reaching the second floor, lift the curtains and come to the balcony that I saw below~lightnovelpub.net~ Maybe I planned to take this opportunity to tell something before. For Donald's sake, Xia Ruisi chose a more remote position. On the balcony on the right by the gate exit, there were not many spectators around.

​​

"Are there any snacks or drinks?"

​​

After taking his seat, Donald glanced left and right and found a low table with no items on it, so he couldn't help asking.

​​

"Is this your first time watching an opera?"

​​

Charis gave Donald a somewhat surprised look, then sat down with her skirt, and continued,

​​

"The Opera House is forbidden to bring snacks and drinks into the venue, which will disturb other audience members from enjoying the performance. If you want to eat, you have to leave here after the opera."

​​

"I see. I take back what I just said. In fact, Finger wanted to eat. I asked him for it."

​​

Patting Wyriffinger's forehead, Donald shrugged and said.

​​

Meow~

​​

Finger opened his mouth and bit on Donald's thumb without exerting any force, just to express his "anger".

​​

Ding~~~

​​

The metal rod hit the triangle, and the clear sound made the somewhat noisy atmosphere in the theater immediately quiet down.

​​

Opera.

​​

here we go.
