Wandering in the Dead of Night

"Click..."

With a clear sound of the door opening, the door to a room inside the luxurious mansion opened, welcoming temporary guests.

This is a guest room.

Of course, the luxury of the guest rooms in such a mansion is unimaginable. The area alone is extremely spacious, comparable to a large hall. The furniture is all top-of-the-line luxury goods, the floor is covered with red carpets, and even the beds are large enough to accommodate four or five people. It is extremely luxurious.

The person who opened the door to this room was Ram.

After opening the door, Ram welcomed Fang Li and spoke to Fang Li in a simple, explanatory tone.

"This is your room. Please rest here for the night."

Upon hearing this, Fang Li, who was following behind Ram, withdrew his gaze from observing his surroundings, nodded casually, and walked into the room.

It was already quite late at night.

At this point in time, it is clearly inappropriate to meet with guests.

Having already spent the entire day traveling and working in the Royal Capital, Ram suggested that they meet with the owner of the mansion tomorrow and rest for the night after entering the mansion with Emilia.

Emilia felt that this was somewhat inappropriate.

It's not that Emilia thinks Ram's statement is wrong, but as the person who invited Fang Li to this mansion, Emilia Fang Li what happened during the day.

However, it was indeed very late, and Fang Li didn't want to keep bringing up Elsa's matter, so he simply agreed to Ram's statement in a somewhat forceful manner.

So Emilia reluctantly left and, with Rem's help, returned to her room.

And Ram was in charge of Fang Li.

After all, although the mansion was large and spacious, it only had two servants, the twins Rem and Ram.

Since Rem is with Emilia, Ram will naturally have to follow Fang Li.

"Tomorrow morning, Ram will go to inform Lord Roswaal and have a meeting. Please get some rest."

Ram spoke to Fang Li in a manner that was neither polite nor rude, but rather proper and conventional.

However, the next second, Ram raised her eyes, looked at Fang Li, and said this in the same tone.

"Although there are no explicitly prohibited areas in this mansion, Ram and the others will turn off the lights soon. Unless there is something special, please rest in this room and do not wander around the mansion at night."

After leaving those words, Ram left the room and closed the door behind her.

Only Fang Li, looking at the tightly closed door, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Is this considered a warning?

If it's a warning, then it means two things.

Or perhaps there's something shady going on in this mansion.

Alternatively, Fang Li may have already been identified as someone who needs to be guarded against.

Or perhaps, both of the above.

"I'm really unpopular..."

At the very least, the twin sisters Rem and Ram would absolutely not welcome Fang Li.

The reason is simple: both of them realized Fang Li's true nature as Killer Demon and listed Fang Li as the most dangerous person.

"Even Reinhard only vaguely sensed that I was not an ordinary person who could not even kill a chicken, but those twin sisters easily discovered my true nature?"

Fang Li murmured to himself.

"Truly as expected..."

Fang Li didn't say what came next.

However, this treatment was not unexpected for Fang Li.

"Thinking about it, it makes sense. After all, this is the residence of one of the heirs to the throne. Generally speaking, a stranger who suddenly visits without any reason would be on guard and suspected of being a spy or an assassin, right?"

Fang Li slowly walked to the window, gazing at the courtyard bathed in the night, a thoughtful look flashing in his dark eyes.

"Moreover, there are indeed some secrets in this mansion."

With the existence of "that" appearing in his mind, Fang Li became somewhat interested.

"Maybe it won't be of any use to me, but I'm still very curious."

After saying that, Fang Li smiled slightly and turned around.

In the instant he turned around, Fang Li's figure seemed to merge into the shadows and completely disappeared.

Its stealth capabilities were even greater than Elsa's before.

Since Fang Li suddenly went into stealth mode, it means something.

He ignored Ram's warning.

Fang Li was walking slowly down the deserted corridor, as if taking a stroll, constantly observing his surroundings as he went.

Before him stretched a wide corridor with walls and floors in the same color scheme, seemingly endless and extending forward.

An unsettling silence permeated the surroundings, making it impossible to sense any trace of human habitation; instead, it felt like a haunted mansion that had been abandoned for a long time.

The walls on both sides are covered with famous paintings with unique styles, arranged neatly in the dark corridor, as if it wouldn't be surprising if something ran out of them at any time.

"Such a large mansion, yet only a few people live there. It's amazing how they can live there."

This is Fang Li's only thought.

In addition, Fang Li also concealed his aura, and his leisurely footsteps on the ground did not make a sound. If someone suddenly saw Fang Li here, they would probably think that some ghost was floating in the corridor.

In fact, it wouldn't be surprising if some people thought Fang Li was a ghost.

Because in Fang Li's eyes, the mother-of-pearl eyes, capable of killing everything, were flashing with an icy blue rainbow light, shining brightly in the dark corridor.

The world before my eyes has become a patchwork of rubble.

Graffiti-like cracks cover the walls, floor, and ceiling, giving one a terrifying feeling that if one exerts even a little force, the surface will crumble and one will fall into a bottomless abyss.

In this world, there is only one thing Fang Li can do.

That is to kill things.

However, this time, Fang Li used the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception not to kill anything, but to observe a space that does not exist in the naked eye.

"If it were me now..."

Can you see it?

I saw the Death Lines of that non-existent space.

"Bilibili..."

With a sensation like an electric shock, Fang Li finally discovered it.

A crack-like Death Lines suddenly appeared on a door.

Upon seeing this, Fang Li suddenly smiled.

"Is this the place?"

With a confident tone, Fang Li stepped forward and pushed the door open.

Almost at the same time, a voice rang out.

"To actually break into a lady's room in the middle of the night, what a rather interesting hobby..."
