I Really Don’t Want to Be the Ruler of the Abyss! - Chapter 23
“Monica! Stop chasing! What are you doing?” Rollin quickly stopped her.
Hearing the shout, Monica was stunned for a moment, and her face instantly turned red.
Because of the obstruction of the night, she did not let Rollin see her.
“Why did you follow me here?”
Seeing how ungrateful she was, Rollin directly placed one hand on his forehead and thought for a while before saying, “It’s very dangerous for a girl like you to follow a killer like this!”
However, very quickly, Rollin saw the soft sword in Monica’s hand. This was a standard weapon of the Imperial Police Department, so Rollin could tell at a glance.
“You’re from the Imperial Police Department?”
Hearing this, Monica immediately hid her soft sword behind her back.
“You!” But after thinking about how Rollin was a blacksmith, naturally, he would be able to easily see through her identity.
.
“I’m really sorry for hiding it from you for such a long time. I didn’t do it on purpose!”
After confirming her identity, Rollin couldn’t help but think of the farce during the day. Wouldn’t that be taking advantage of him for nothing!?
Thus, Rollin began to operate his brain rapidly, preparing to think of a perfect way to develop.
But Monica once again said something astonishing. “Can you keep it a secret? Next time when you’re free, I’ll let you have it!”
After saying that, she rubbed her chest.
“This!”
Just as Rollin was in a dilemma, Monica immediately added, “The next time, you can add some other parts!”
After saying that, she disappeared into the night with a red face, leaving Rollin in a mess.
The commotion quickly ended, and Rollin quickly returned to May’s house.
This time, he was very insistent, and directly brought May back to his own residence.
As soon as she reached home, May used her small hand to hammer Rollin’s chest and said, “You’re a man like this. You don’t care about other people’s feelings at all. You can do whatever you want!”
Rollin could only hug her to his chest and explain, “I had no choice. You saw that strange person who suddenly appeared tonight. He wasn’t human at all!”
At that time, Rollin vaguely felt that the person’s face was somewhat familiar, but he could not guess who it was!
Not long after, the sound of knocking on the door came from next door. Rollin brought May to a quiet place.
He told her about what happened with Monica today. Of course, the most important part was omitted by Rollin.
Seeing the sincere look in Rollin’s eyes, May immediately believed what Rollin said.
“Seriously, I thought you had a new woman. I didn’t expect it to be like this!”
“I’m sorry!”
After saying that, the two of them kissed each other and spent the whole night together.
Monica, who was at the side, had a good night’s sleep because she chased after the villain.
After encountering such a thing, Rollin naturally couldn’t let it go. After all, it was already a threat to the safety of his family.
Rollin decided to finish his work and start guarding against this hungry ghost hidden in the darkness!
It was soon evening. Rollin changed into a tight and easy-to-move outfit and hung the long knife that the Butcher had left behind on his back.
In order to commemorate the Butcher, Rollin directly named this legendary artifact ‘Ten Thousand Massacres’!
He came to the small tavern to eat. There were very few women here today, and all of them were men chatting here.
“Do you know! Last night, I saw a man hiding in the darkness!”
“His face is full of bite marks, just like the legend of the slums!”
“He is that humanoid monster hungry ghost! The hungry ghost who walked out of hell!”
The people on the side heard this and said disapprovingly, “Fortunately, he only finds trouble with women. If he finds trouble with men, then…”
Before he could finish his sentence, his gaze was fixed on another man who was dressed very coquettishly.
After being assured by him, that coquettish man directly pinched his orchid finger and made a heart gesture to him.
When Rollin saw this scene, he almost spat out the soup that he had just drunk!
After eating, it was already late. After Rollin went back and gave a few instructions to May.
He knocked on the door next door and found that no one was home, so Rollin went out alone.
Waiting for prey was a very boring and monotonous thing, because you were not sure whether they would appear or not, or whether he would appear in another block.
With no other choice, Rollin could only go to the vicinity of Hall’s tavern on Pleasure Street.
After all, no one had disappeared in this area. It was very likely that the murderer would appear and search around here.
Rollin found a dark place and sat on the ground. He activated his High-Level Magic Power Fluctuation.
The Magic Power Fluctuation was about 300 meters away, which was already out of Rollin’s sight.
10 o’clock was the hottest time in the hall at night. Everyone was almost drunk.
At 12 o’clock, the men on this street began to bring the women they liked to get a room to sleep in.
At 1 o’clock, the prostitutes who followed the men back to their rooms had already finished their work and were ready to go home.
At this time, Rollin became vigilant.
Although these people from the police station didn’t find anything, Rollin got the news through the bartender in the pub.
Basically, the victims were all women who had gone home from work. That was why Rollin had been sitting there waiting until now.
Five minutes, ten minutes. There was still no movement in the surroundings. At this time, the streets were not too quiet.
Half an hour had passed. The streets had completely returned to silence. Even the slightest movement of the wind and grass could be heard.
An hour later, there was not even a shadow on the entire street. However, Rollin sensed that a man had appeared in an alley.
It was a very dark place. There was not a single bit of light in it. If one just used their eyes to look, they would not be able to see anything at all.
This man looked a little different from the last time he saw him. He seemed to be wearing a human skin mask on his face, but in the end, he could not escape Rollin’s magic senses.
After locking onto his target, Rollin went straight to the end of the alley and found a haystack to sit in.
Time passed very quickly. The man was very cautious and did not make any movements. He sat behind the trash bin the whole time.
Even if he was close, most people would find a pile of trash here.
After more than ten minutes, a prostitute who had just finished her overtime came to the alley.
She was already drunk. She looked at the dark alley but did not see anything.
Then, she boldly walked in.
Rollin felt that something was wrong and immediately stood up. He nervously used magic to lock onto the two people in the alley.
One step, two steps, three steps. The drunk woman seemed to have kicked a bottle and made a sound that scared herself.
After standing in place for a moment, she continued to stagger up.
