Chapter 57: Being Honest and Open
As Tyr relaxed comfortably in the warm bath surrounded by hot water, suddenly his magic shadowstone started vibrating.
Tyr couldn’t help but feel puzzled. Usually, when someone had something to communicate, they would use his magic voice stone. It was rare for someone to directly contact the magic shadowstone. So, Tyr deliberately stood up from the bath, naked, and walked to the cabinet in the bathroom, taking out the magic shadowstone from the pocket of his pants.
After jogging back to the bath, Tyr struck what he considered to be a rather handsome pose and then opened the magic shadowstone.
“Hello, why at this time…” Tyr’s words got stuck in his throat halfway through because at the other end of the magic shadowstone appeared an extremely terrifying face.
The rotting flesh and countless mouths roaring in pain made Tyr’s face darken for a moment.
“Pandora.”
“Hehe.” Pandora chuckled very humanely and then made another sound.
“You’re quite amusing. I feel like eating you.”
Unexpectedly, Pandora’s pronunciation was much more standard than before. The words that used to require careful listening to understand were now spoken clearly, which made Tyr even more gloomy. This creature must have used the television broadcasts on the magic shadowstone to learn.
“Ever since, ever since… being forced out of our lair, I’ve been wondering, who exactly discovered us, us, us, us, us.”
Pandora’s face emitted the sound of flesh tearing, with maggots wriggling into the interstice causing further tearing. Such a disgusting scene would have already scared off an ordinary person from watching the magic shadowstone, but not Tyr. In order to honor the memory of the deceased Mr. Zack, he had to face this monster.
“And then, ambushed a mercenary, a mercenary outpost.”
What!
Tyr’s pupils contracted, impossible! Pandora’s strength was not enough to attack a mercenary branch. Several senior iron-tier mercenaries could easily kill it.
“Your reaction suggests that you believe our strength is not enough to attack the Mercenary Division. I see. Originally, we did have such a plan, but your reaction has made us abandon that idea.”
Pandora’s words first caught Tyr off guard, and then he realized, this bastard was actually testing him!
Because Pandora didn’t know the strength of the mercenary branches in the human world, she didn’t act rashly. Instead, she contacted Tyr and used lies to test his reaction.
This creature, clearly not yet at the Archdemon level, already possessed intelligence not inferior to humans.
“Thank you so much for this important information. Let’s get in touch next time. Hehe.”
The magic shadowstone was hung up by Pandora this time, and Tyr didn’t say a word from start to finish. But at this moment, his mood had plummeted to its lowest point.
Even though he was in the warm bath, he felt as if he had been thrown into an icy cellar.
Pandora must die, whether it’s for Mr. Zack or for his own beliefs. But now that the school has just started, there is no system for taking leave from Avalon, so he can only wait for the arrival of the thirty-day winter break. But that’s still a semester away, more than four months’ time. It’s still early. He must calm down and not let this matter disrupt his life. Calm down, that’s the most important thing. In order to be able to personally kill Pandora one day, he must calm down and hone his skills. Calm down…
Repeatedly muttering this word, Tyr suddenly heard a female voice coming from the direction of the bathroom cabinet, “Tyr, I’m coming in.”
Can’t calm down!!!
Tyr’s face turned bright red, sweat instantly beading on his forehead. He wanted to turn around to see who it was, but if it really was a girl, wouldn’t that be peeping!
No, since the other party dares to come in, I dare to let him see Tyr, but why does this voice sound so familiar?
“Since we’re brothers now, we should be honest with each other, right, Tyr?”
Then, a graceful figure, wrapped in a towel as white as jade, slowly descended from the bath.
The faint fragrance made Tyr shiver all over. Although he had bathed with several women as Yuehai before, at that time he was also a woman. A situation like this had never happened before.
“What did she just say?”
“Are you thinking about something?”
Upon hearing the other party’s words, Tyr mechanically turned towards the stunning girl, whose head and shoulders were the only parts visible in the steamy bathroom. Her beauty became even more magnificent amidst the rising steam. However, she was a man.
“Eight, eight, eight, eight…”
“Eight?” Kagura Xiaoqi tilted her head slightly, looking at Tyr with confusion, but Tyr’s face had already turned bright red, as if he were about to erupt like a volcano in the next moment.
“Kagura Xiaoqi!!!”
The sound from the bathroom echoed throughout the entire dormitory.
Upon hearing the sound, Constantine burst into laughter and collapsed onto the bed, rolling back and forth, leaving Claude rather speechless.
Ten minutes ago.
After Tyr closed the bathroom door, Constantine turned off the magic shadowstone on his dedicated desk and suddenly said, “Claude, when shall we take a bath together?”
Claude, who was currently engrossed in a grimoire, looked up in confusion upon hearing Constantine’s remark and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing, just being honest. Tyr and I have already bathed together. It’s quite interesting to chat about life topics.”
Claude nodded slightly; indeed, sometimes people only open up in certain environments.
“Sure, we can wait for Tyr to come out and then we’ll go in.”
“That’s good. This way, we’ll also be bath buddies, right? We big men should be open with each other, unlike some people who lock the bathroom door and even add a string of runes,” Constantine hinted, prompting Kagura Xiaoqi, who couldn’t help but respond defiantly from the bed.
“It’s because you always barge in and disturb my peaceful bath! I’m telling you, if you come in again, I’ll throw you off the nineteenth floor,” Kagura Xiaoqi retorted defiantly.
“Well, well, well, Xiaoqi, you can’t do this. How can a man like you silently bathe alone?”
“Man!” Xiaoqi seemed to be stimulated by this word, and his eyes suddenly became bright.
Claude watched the situation develop with an observing attitude, while Constantine chuckled.
“Now isn’t this a great opportunity? Tyr is bathing inside. If you go in and have a candid conversation with him about life ideals, he will surely be very willing.”
“Being honest with each other…” Xiaoqi’s face stiffened, and Constantine seized the opportunity, saying to the other person with a sly smile.
“Could it be that you’re afraid, man?”
“How could that be! It’s just that I’m a bit unfamiliar with bathing with others since I’ve never done it before. Since you’ve brought it up, as a man, how can I hesitate?”
