MissRaven

30 May

Under the guidance of the red-haired girl, Leyton walked to the sink at the corner of the stairs, turned on the faucet to clean the blood flowing from his nose, and found that the nosebleed had indeed stopped.

"Are you a doctor at this hospital?" Leyton asked curiously.

"Do I look like one?" the red-haired girl said impolitely.

"Anyway, you look even less like a patient," Leyton shrugged.

"Of course, I'm not a patient," the red-haired girl's anger, which had just subsided, was ignited again by Leyton.

Leyton looked at her appearance, clearly angry but trying to maintain her image, and wanted to laugh, but he tried hard to hold back because he had basically guessed the identity of this red-haired girl.

"Hey! What impolite things are you thinking about! Your expression looks like a pervert, you know!" the girl said angrily, wanting to hit someone.

"I'm really not called Hey, I'm thinking if I were a Provoker of the Hunter pathway, I would definitely be able to digest the potion quickly in front of you!" Leyton had a playful smile on his face.

"You! What do you mean? I don't care if you're called Hey or not! What Provoker, but you're really good at provoking," the girl looked flustered for a moment, and then pretended to be calm.

"Is that so? It's a pity, the Hunter pathway is not very good at defense, otherwise I would really like to choose the Hunter pathway," Leyton said with a regretful expression.

"Heh! A person who is greedy for life and afraid of death!" the girl mocked unceremoniously.

Leyton shrugged indifferently and said, "After all, a qualified hunter is very good at attracting hatred. If he is not resistant enough to beatings, how can he survive? What do you say? This Sanguine who sees life and death indifferently?"

"It's Sanguine!" the girl's eyes stared at Leyton, scarlet as blood.

"Yeah, it's Sanguine," Leyton quickly nodded in agreement.

The girl also realized that she had been tricked at this time, "You!"

"You tricked me! Evil, dirty, and despicable human!"

"Hey, hey, hey! You're going too far, right? This is clearly wisdom. Don't use so many adjectives all at once," Leyton stepped aside slightly towards the stairs, a little worried that this Sanguine girl's psychological endurance was not good enough and she would go berserk.

"I'm not called Hey!" The Sanguine girl saw the other party's retreat and the anger that had been suppressed rose again.

"Then what's your name?" Leyton asked.

The Sanguine girl stared at Leyton for a while before proudly raising her chin, putting her hands on her hips, and said arrogantly, "Is this the purpose of you despicable humans? Hmph! It's not impossible to satisfy your rude request. Listen carefully, my name is Eliza, the favored one of the great progenitor, who will lead the Sanguine to a glorious future, Blood Moon Queen II!"

"Why do you have to do so many actions just to say a name?" Leyton expressed that he did not understand the chuunibyou of the Sanguine.

"Mind your own business! What about you, Hey! What are you called?" Eliza said arrogantly.

"Me? Joshua, Joshua Leer, um... telling each other's names counts as friends, right? You can't hit people just because you're angry!" Leyton casually made up a name.

"I had already suppressed my anger, but when you said that, I wanted to beat you up again," Eliza said fiercely.

"It's okay, think whatever you want, I'm very generous, as long as you don't do anything," Leyton said in an indifferent tone.

Eliza gave Leyton a big eye roll with her scarlet eyes.

"Are you a member of the Knowledge Church here to investigate this incident? Is there no one left in your Knowledge Church? Sending such a weak person over, you should just go back where you came from. You couldn't even catch the despicable thief or find any clues, you're even more useless," Eliza stared at Leyton carefully for a few glances and said impolitely.

"Why do you think I'm a member of the Knowledge Church?" Leyton asked curiously, feeling that he shouldn't have such obvious directional actions or characteristics.

Eliza stared at Leyton with a look as if he was a fool and said, "Who else but the people from your Knowledge Church would bring a book with them to the hospital for no reason!"

"Book?" Leyton was stunned for a moment before he realized it. It seemed that the book he was carrying had been lost.

"Don't look, you dropped it on the ground at the gate and never picked it up," Eliza said.

"I didn't even remember that I was carrying a book," Leyton frowned. His spiritual intuition reminded him that things might not be so simple.

"Tch! I thought people from your Knowledge Church liked books so much, but they didn't even notice that the one in their hand had been dropped for so long," Eliza said disdainfully.

"The point is that I didn't think about my book at all at the time, and I didn't notice it. Don't you think that's reasonable?" Leyton said.

"What's unreasonable about that? You're just stupid from reading too much!" Eliza said carelessly.

Leyton was a little speechless. He seemed to have overestimated the IQ of this Sanguine chuunibyou girl, so he had to explain, "When something in your hand is knocked off, you shouldn't be completely unaware, right? But I didn't have any relevant thoughts at all. It can only be said that there was a thief nearby who could steal people's thoughts."

"A thief who can steal people's thoughts? Are you trying to get back some lost face for yourself?" Eliza said suspiciously.

"Sequence 5: Dream Stealer. The Beyonders of this sequence can take away other people's ideals and dreams, and can also steal other people's memories, and even steal the ideas that the other party is about to put into practice. You dare to come out and catch thieves alone without even knowing these things?" Leyton didn't expect this chuunibyou Sanguine girl to be so reckless.

"How could I have imagined that a crazy prankster would have such a high sequence!" Eliza felt a little aggrieved: "That's not right! Since your church knows this information, why did you send a weakling who has just taken the potion and hasn't mastered his own characteristics and abilities!"

The weakling was speechless for a moment, sighed, and said, "So, obviously, I'm not here to investigate this incident! I'm just here to watch and accumulate some experience for myself. Moreover, I judged that the other party was a Sequence 5 Beyonder based on my encounter just now. I didn't know these things before I came, otherwise I wouldn't have come!"

"Coward! You're giving up so quickly," Eliza felt that she was going to be angered to death by the guy in front of her. She had never seen such an annoying person from the Knowledge Church.

"The other side is very likely to be a Sequence 5, or at least a Sequence 7 or Sequence 6 who has the corresponding Sealed Artifact. No matter which one it is, it's not something that someone like me, who is just Sequence 8 and hasn't mastered his own Beyonder abilities, can deal with. Moreover, my pathway doesn't have any combat power improvement in the early stages," Leyton was also very helpless. He didn't expect that the other party would likely be a Sequence 5 powerhouse before he came.

"You're already here, come on, go find this guy with me," Eliza insisted on catching the other party, no matter how much Leyton emphasized that the other party was very strong.

Leyton glanced at the other party and said, "So you are the hospital doctor whose collection was stolen?"

"It's not me, it's my brother whose doll was stolen," Eliza said.

"Your Sanguine's hobbies are quite special. Then what did you have stolen?" Leyton could only sigh at the Sanguine's fondness for dolls.

"What do you mean our Sanguine? It's just my brother, okay? That damn thief stole my Pazs, it was so small and so cute!" Eliza's expression became very angry when she talked about her stolen Pazs, and her cold white skin looked a little bloody.

"Is your brother called Emlyn?" Leyton asked curiously. He remembered that the Sanguine who loved to collect dolls was in Backlund.

"What Emlyn?" Eliza asked strangely.

"It's nothing, let's go, let's go to other parts of the hospital and see. From the thief's perverted taste, after working so hard, he will definitely find a good place to watch this drama," Leyton shook his head and greeted Eliza, preparing to go to other floors of the hospital to take a look.

"You seem to know a lot about this kind of thing? You wouldn't be that kind of person too, would you?" Eliza asked.

"Of course not, this is just analyzing a person's psychology and behavior to infer the other party's next move. By the way, do you have any mystical items? Do you have anything you can lend me for self-defense?" Leyton explained, and then felt that it was too risky for a noob like him to find a high-sequence powerhouse hiding here, so he asked Eliza, who was a Sanguine, if she had anything that could be used for self-defense.

"You don't have any mystical items?" Eliza said incredulously, and then felt that her direct words were a bit rude, so she added: "I only have one mystical item, but I can't give it to you. It's not that I'm stingy, but the negative impact on creatures other than Sanguine is too great."

"Well, that's good. The Marauder pathway has a special sense for treasures. If there are too many mystical items, it will be like sending equipment to the other party," Leyton didn't feel anything. On the contrary, he felt that this was just right. It didn't matter whether he could catch the other party or not. Anyway, the captain said that this matter would be handed over to the Earth Mother's Church later. It would be uncomfortable if his side sent a wave of equipment as a group.

"Boom! Boom boom!"

"Ah!"

Eliza wanted to say something, but at this time, the sound of something exploding suddenly came from upstairs, accompanied by people's screams.

"Don't worry, go slowly, pay attention to the people around you and their expressions. The thief is likely to be hiding around. Think a few more times when you encounter something, have more thoughts in your mind, so even if the thief wants to steal our thoughts, he will have to steal them a few more times, which will leave us with some reaction time," Leyton grabbed the Sanguine girl who was about to run upstairs quickly and told her.
