Deities: Starting From Goblins
Chapter 1063 - Chapter 1063 Chapter 595 Life and Death Gate_2

Chapter 1063: Chapter 595: Life and Death Gate_2 Chapter 1063: Chapter 595: Life and Death Gate_2 Simmon Leaf pondered for a moment before shaking his head.

“No, we decided to track the Evil Qi on a whim, it’s impossible that he suddenly knew, but indeed, it is abnormal for someone to suddenly leave a perfectly good residence, there might be some secrets that couldn’t be told.”

At that time, two soldiers walked by, talking and laughing.

“Did you hear, Sheron Perri, the subordinate of Captain Logan, had a breakthrough, it’s said that he had Logan’s Elixir, ah, to have such a captain is truly blissful, I also wish to be his subordinate, then I would have endless Elixirs.”

“Dream on, Sheron Perri is at least a prodigy, what are you, even if you offer yourself, do you think he would spare a glance at you?”

The two belittled each other, not saying anything pleasant, and continued on their way.

Hilly Chen and Simmon Leaf exchanged a look.

Hilly Chen stepped forward to stop the men.

“Who did you just say Sheron Perri is, he’s Logan’s subordinate?”

The overwhelming pressure from the man in front was so terrifying that the two soldiers shivered uncontrollably in an instant.

One of them replied with a trembling voice.

“S-Sir, yes, that Sheron Perri, lives in the third house on the left after turning ahead, he indeed is Logan’s subordinate, it’s commonly talked about, and Sheron Perri himself has acknowledged it, we wouldn’t dare to lie.”

After hearing that, Hilly Chen turned to look at Simmon Leaf, who also gave him a sign.

In tacit understanding, the two released the soldiers and headed towards Sheron Perri’s residence.

In a moment, they arrived at the rather simple residence.

At that time, Sheron Perri had already finished his cultivation and was coming out of his room.

He just hadn’t expected to see two Big Shots suddenly appear before him upon stepping out.

“S-Sir?”

Sheron Perri recognized the two of them, the local heroes, appointed by the emperor from the Upper World, were none other than Saint King Level experts.

In front of them, he was nothing but a lowly lackey, naturally not daring to be presumptuous.

“Stand up, we have something to ask you, let’s go inside and sit.”

Simmon Leaf seemed gentle to others, but his smile lacked any warmth.

Sheron Perri certainly wouldn’t dare to resist them and followed them into his room.

“My humble abode is simple, please don’t take offense.”

The two nodded, as they didn’t care much for material possessions.

“I’m not sure what matters bring the two esteemed sirs to me, is there anything I can assist you with?”

His submissive demeanor indeed made the two relax their vigilance.

They then started to probe.

“Sheron Perri, it’s said you’re that Logan’s subordinate, the very one who made significant contributions in the human-demon war, you must know a bit about him.”

Upon hearing them suddenly mention his captain, clearly, they were here for him.

Sheron Perri’s gaze flickered before quickly returning to calm.

“Yes, but not that much, I simply admire the captain’s character, so I volunteered to follow him. I haven’t known the captain for long, so there isn’t much I know.”

The two exchanged another glance but showed no sign of reaction.

Simmon Leaf continued to inquire.

“Then tell me, how did he defeat the Powerhouse from the Demon Race? He alone defended the East Gate for so long, do you know how he fought?”

“The captain, to protect us, had no choice…”

Sheron Perri almost let something slip, but upon seeing the intense gaze of the two before him, he seemed to recollect himself and swallowed back his previous words, saying,

“We came later, we were unclear about what happened at the front, by the time we arrived, the captain was almost done for, if not for the two Powerhouses intervening in time, we would surely have died there as well.”

His ambiguous statement ultimately avoided mentioning anything about Logan.

They couldn’t extract much information, and his answers didn’t seem to contain any errors.

Simmon Leaf felt that something was amiss, but in the end, he could only leave.

After the two of them left, Sheron Perri initially dared not take any hasty actions, not until he confirmed that they had truly departed with no intention of lingering.

Only then did he contact Logan via the agreed method and informed him about the investigation.

“Captain, it was obvious that those two powerhouses were targeting you, and they even insisted on asking me how you dealt with the Demon Race. It seems they’re quite interested in your abilities. You have to be careful–they’ve already made it to the City Lord’s Mansion, and I fear they won’t let things rest so easily.”

Sheron Perri’s concern was not unfounded; moreover, Logan was well aware that he indeed harbored a significant secret, one that absolutely couldn’t be discovered by those individuals.

If he wasn’t mistaken, it was highly probable that was the reason those two had come.

He wasn’t surprised.

But still, he felt that things had become troublesome.

“Alright, I understand, Sheron Perri. I’ll be careful and cautious,” he replied.

He patted his shoulder, and the atmosphere between them improved considerably because of it.

The duo had finally managed to meet and planned to go out for a stroll, accompanied by Little White.

While the three of them were out, they came across a marriage proposal forum where embroidered balls were thrown.

“Look, they’re throwing embroidered balls to find suitors up ahead. Shall we go and watch, just for fun?”

Little White was extremely excited, her face showing an eager and curious expression.

“Oh? Throwing embroidered balls to find suitors? That does sound interesting. I’ve never seen such a scene before. Master, we must go and see.”

Seeing the crowd ahead, Logan also wanted to join in on the bustle.

The scene was indeed buzzing with excitement; it was just that one couldn’t tell how many were there for the gossip, and how many sincerely wished to catch the ball. In any case, with the crowd hoping for excitement, everyone seemed quite happy.

“Fine, let’s go have a look then. But we’ll just watch; since we’re not interested, make sure not to rashly reach out to catch it. Catching the embroidered ball carries a special meaning. Sheron Perri, if you take a fancy to that lady, then by all means, give it a try. Little White, you don’t quite understand the human social order, so I’ll explain this matter to you separately; you must not reach out.”

Sheron Perri was fine; a robust young man who also served as a city guard.

He was worthy of a wealthy family’s daughter.

Little White was different; the Little Fox didn’t quite grasp human affairs. If out of curiosity or due to a fox’s nature, she went for the ball and captured it, the implications would be quite different–it could potentially disrupt the lady’s entire life.

Therefore, Logan warned her time and again, fearing she would inadvertently cause trouble.

Little White wasn’t foolish; grasping his concern quickly, she assured him.

“Yes, Master, don’t worry. I’m not that curious, nor will I marry a woman, so I won’t reach out rashly.”

She waved her hand, seemingly without words for her master’s excessive concern.

The trio then proceeded forward.

“Wow, it’s really crowded here, jam-packed with people.”

Little White remarked with wonder, struggling to squeeze in and quickly pulling back.

Someone overhead her exclamation and turned to share their gossip with them.

“Indeed, I’ve heard that this family is one of the city’s major households–the Hime Family. Miss Hime is getting married, and no one knows how tremendous her dowry is. Who knows how many are here for that massive dowry? And if one were to become Old Master Hime’s son-in-law, surely one’s status would only rise higher and higher. Who wouldn’t want such an advantage?”

“Oh, and what is this–a young lady? Did you come with your brother?”

The elderly man glanced at Little White, then looked at Logan behind her, without giving it much thought and mistaking Little White as his sister.

But Little White was displeased and promptly stepped forward to take Logan’s arm.

“No, he’s not any brother; this is my master,” she declared.

The old man’s eyes widened in shock, scrutinizing the two of them.

“Master? Master?”

Logan knew he had misunderstood and just as his lips twitched to rectify the situation, the man in front of him spoke first.

“Sigh, I really am getting old. I didn’t expect the young people of today to play around so much. Young master, you’ve already got a beloved concubine, and now you’re even trying to snatch Miss Hime. With a lady on each arm, you must be keen on enjoying your romantic fortune. But with so many people here, it’s not certain you’ll get your wish, is it?”

Clearly, the old man had mistaken Logan for a playboy with a host of concubines at home and now coveting the Hime Family’s wealthy dowry, akin to the infamous Hilly Chen.
