Bone King: Starting from Becoming the Supreme

Lana clinked glasses and listened quietly to Lagis's story about the "elegant nobleman".

There was always a faint smile on her face, which never changed at all.

"So, that 〈Elegant Nobleman〉 is stronger than everyone in Cang Qiangwei?"

"Ha... This is no longer a question of strength. They are basically not in the same dimension as us. Lana should also know about the last demon incident, right?"

"Those demons flying in the sky?"

"That's right. Those demons were summoned by an undead being who was hiding from the world. The strength of each demon was over 80 adventure difficulty! However, in the end, those two people easily dealt with hundreds of them."

"This is really... incredible. A team of only two people can achieve this level. So, when did those two people join the Adventurer's Guild?"

"Eh? This...was about two months ago?"

"Two months ago?"

Lana was slightly stunned when she heard this, not knowing what she was thinking of.

Lagis asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Lana shook her head.

"No, nothing, please continue."

"Well, the strangest thing is not this team, but the fact that the elegant nobleman disappeared recently!"

"Disappeared?"

"Yes, that nobleman would basically go to the nearby tavern and adventurer's association every day, but in the past two days, he seemed to have disappeared."

"It's only been two days. Could it be that he went out on a mission?"

"That shouldn't be possible. The Adventurer's Guild's high-difficulty missions have already been taken up. The Guild Master also said that he hasn't seen those two people for a long time."

If a person who has always maintained the same habit suddenly changes the habit one day.

Basically, there are only two situations.

First, there was an accident.

Considering the strength of those two people, it is basically possible.

So, there is only one other possibility.

Those two people should have left the kingdom.

Lagi rubbed her head and couldn't help but complain.

"By the way, Lana, didn't you propose a motion to ban the slave trade and get it passed?"

"That's right..."

"In fact, even though the proposal was passed, it is very difficult to truly put an end to the slave trade. After all, it not only involves the interests of the Eight Fingers, but also some nobles have extended their hands there."

“Well, wasn’t the slave trade in the kingdom basically eradicated a while ago? Climb told me this himself.”

The girl had a serious look on her face, as if she was telling Lakis, my Climb would never lie to me!

Lagis waved her hand.

“Climb didn’t lie to you, but the reason why the proposal was successfully implemented was because of that noble young man.”

"Hmm? What's going on?"

"That person seems to hate the slave trade. Every time he encounters this kind of thing, basically a store will be razed to the ground. Over time, almost all related industries in the kingdom have packed up and run away."

"..."

"However, recently, due to the news that the noble young master has disappeared, the slave traders in the kingdom seem to be getting restless again."

Lana slowly put down the teacup, slowly stood up, walked to a tall vase, and stood on tiptoe.

He stretched out his hand with great effort and took out a map made of parchment.

The pattern on the map is the distribution map of the entire royal city.

Lana spread the parchment on the table, pointed at one of the houses and said.

"This is one of the secret bases hidden by Eight Fingers. If we use this as a starting point, we should be able to find a lot of clues."

"This is……?"

"This is the map of the royal city that I drew myself."

"…But, Lana, you've never been out of the castle, right? How did you draw a map of the entire town?"

"No, have you forgotten? I found Climb on the street outside the castle when I was five years old."

five years old...

Laqisi was so shocked that she couldn't speak.

Lana, who was only five years old, had memorized the entire town's structure after leaving the castle just once?

Is this kind of thing really possible for humans?

However, this is not what Laqisi cares most about.

What she really cared about was why Lana knew the hidden location of Eight Fingers?

Lana seemed to have anticipated that she would be confused.

Therefore, he recited the lines he had prepared perfectly.

"When my brother came to chat with me before, I happened to see a document on the table showing evidence of a noble's cooperation with Eight Fingers. The document happened to record one of Eight Fingers' hidden bases."

After hearing the explanation, Lagis's doubts gradually dissipated.

She memorized the location on the map in her mind and stood up.

"I owe you another favor this time, Lana."

"No, aren't we close friends? Isn't it natural for close friends to help each other?"

"Yes...Thank you, Lana."

"You're welcome, Lachis."

……

The moment you saw your best friend walk out of the room.

Lana, who always had a gentle smile on her face, saw her smile disappear in an instant.

The pair of eyes that were originally like sapphires now seemed to have lost their luster.

He always gave people a very warm, sunny and kind look, but now he seemed to be despising everything.

She came to the mirror and gently rubbed her face with her hands.

“Climb will be home soon. Which face should I use to welcome the cute puppy home? This one, or this one? Hmm, this one is the best, right?”

In the mirror, Lana moved away from the mirror after she had kneaded that flawless face into a look that everyone liked.

When she reached the door, she hesitated for a moment and glanced at her own shadow.

Then, she took a few steps back and spoke to the air.

"If possible, I would like to see Master Demiurge again tonight at 18:."

The black shadow suddenly moved.

A dark shadow quickly separated from her shadow.

Lana turned around, walked forward with a smile and opened the door.

Standing outside the door were the two maids who had come with them.

"Oh, sorry, I kept you waiting for so long."

The two maids lowered their heads and responded expressionlessly.

"No, we were originally your maids."

"Yes, it is our duty to serve you, so you don't have to apologize."

Lana smiled happily when she heard that and walked in front first.

"By the way, do you know that my friends will have a big move tonight!"

"Your friends, are you referring to those adventurers from Cang Qiangwei?"

"Yes, you know, they have found the base of a criminal gang, and they are going to catch all the bad guys today."

"Hey... this is really interesting. Could you please tell me more about it?"

"Of course it's no problem. After all, you are my good friends too."

"You are right. As your good friend, it is our duty to listen to your heart."

"Hey, then, let's start from here..."

In the corridor, three women, three smiling faces.

But beneath their smiling faces, they all have their own different thoughts.
