Chapter 144 Compensation
The wound on the surface was replaced by the new muscle skin, the broken ribs returned to their original appearance, the injured internal organs were regained health, and the blood stasis in the body disappeared cleanly...
However, in less than half a minute, Leon's injuries were basically healed, which made him admire the magic of the magic.
Of course, Leon also knew very well that such a precious scroll was definitely a treasure that even money could not buy.
He owed this favor firmly.
Outside the door, there were messy and hurried footsteps and shouts, and the Twilight Hotel was finally alarmed!
They are like the policemen in the movies of Leon's previous life, always coming late after the crime and the battle.
A hotel manager rushed to the door panting. When he saw the messy living room and the blood-stained Leon leaning against the corner of the wall, his expression on his face changed several times, fear, shock, and glory.
"Two respected guests, are you okay?" the manager asked anxiously, his voice trembling slightly.
Leon knew the other party. The manager of the Twilight Hotel was always in the first floor lobby, wearing a straight black dress, and his words and deeds seemed to have been trained thousands of times, and there was nothing that could make people picky.
But at this moment he lost his usual calmness and seemed a little angry.
"We have something to do, very much!" Corinna stood up, her pretty face covered with frost: "I believe you have seen it too. We were attacked by assassins here. If it weren't for Baron Leon's bravery, I'm afraid you'll see the bodies of both of us now, not the assassin's!"
"We were extremely shocked to encounter such a thing in the best hotel in Tormond City. I would ask Marquis Nicholas at the right time, but now we are leaving here to go to other hotels, because we can no longer guarantee our safety!"
Marquis Nicholas is the owner of the Twilight Hotel, and the dignitaries in the city of Tormond have various industries openly and secretly.
The attack on the Twilight Hotel by the assassin is a very serious incident. If necessary, the garrison will also intervene in the investigation. Once the matter spreads, the hotel's credibility will be hit very fatally.
When she heard that Corinna knew her boss and had to move out immediately, the manager was sweating.
He immediately bowed and said, "Great Madam, please forgive our faults. We have just discovered something wrong. Please ask the two of you to give us a chance to save and make up for it. I will send someone to strengthen the guardianship of the hotel immediately to ensure that similar things will not happen again."
Corinna snorted coldly, but her eyes turned to Leon.
When Leon saw her eyes, he immediately understood and said with a deep face: "Okay! Then I'll wait for you to give me an explanation, otherwise..."
If you have to forgive others, you will be forgiven. This matter is obviously a carefully arranged killing game by Leon's enemy. Twilight Hotel must be responsible, but it must be held accountable unyieldingly or even completely destroy its reputation. In fact, it is not beneficial to Leon.
Corinna's words have already pointed out the boss behind the Twilight Hotel for Leon. Leon naturally understands it, but the ruthless words that should be said must not be missed, otherwise it will only make the other party feel easy to deal with.
It would be a shame to take advantage of the problem and not give it some benefits.
Sure enough, the benefits come soon!
The guards of the Twilight Hotel took over Leon's original room as quickly as possible, and the news was naturally tightened. This was thanks to Leon's living in the innermost part of the third floor, and the room opposite was where Leon's two entourages lived, which was easier to save.
His residence was changed to the fifth floor, with the most luxurious suite with a luxurious bath and balcony garden. According to the standards of the Twilight Hotel, the price of one night required a full hundred gold coins!
After Leon settled back, Tien and Subaru came back with a smell of alcohol.
Both of them didn't understand what was going on, and Leon didn't say much, but asked them to change rooms as well - it would be a trial in two days, so it would not be affected by this incident.
After a lot of trouble, it was almost late at night.
"I'm so embarrassed this time..." Leon said to Karina with some guilt: "I almost implicated you!"
Kalina chuckled: "It doesn't matter, just remember what you promised me!"
She suddenly remembered something: "By the way, you can take these things back..."
The fox girl waved her slender hand, and a light flashed in her palm again. A metal box and an animal skin pocket appeared out of thin air on the carpet in front, which were two things that were equipped with mitral silver and magic crystals in Leon!
"I was afraid that I was robbing me at home just now, so I put away both items."
Karina's magical method made Leon look straight: "What kind of spell is this?"
"Not a spell..." Karina shook her hand at Leon: "Did you see the ring I'm wearing? This is not an ordinary ring. Its name is the Space Ring, it is an ancient space magic weapon from the secret realm of the Holy Land."
"I don't know how to make this space magic weapon. The ring in my hand can probably store things in a room."
So that's it! Leon suddenly realized that he had heard Akran mention space magic tools, which were probably very precious and rare things. Now, looking at Karina's method of collecting and hiding objects, it was indeed amazing.
The storage space of a room is simply a portable warehouse. It is really convenient to carry such a ring when you go out for adventures.
"I usually use it to put some clothes and jewelry, and I also have some self-defense weapons." Karina blinked: "So, don't underestimate me!"
This is definitely true, and Leon couldn't help but think of her hand crossbow that could fire the soul armor crossbow arrow.
"It's very late, I'll take you back first!" Leon stood up and said.
Unexpectedly, Corinna shook her head: "Don't worry, we have a guest, I'll leave after he comes."
"Guest?" Leon was stunned for a moment.
What guests are there so late? He doesn't know many people in Tormond.
However, Leon soon realized Corinna's ability to predict things was amazing. After a while, a customer really came to the door.
It was not someone else who came, but Marquis Nicholas Tiger, the owner of the Twilight Hotel.
The family of Marquis Nicholas is an important force of the Great Tiger family. It belongs to the ranks of prominent families in Tormond and the entire southwestern province. This old marquis with blond hair is resolute and decisive in his personality and is known for his toughness in the noble circle.
The assassination of the Twilight Hotel, one of the most important industries in the family, had to come, and the Marquis had to come, but when facing Leon and Karina, he still maintained the reserve and arrogance unique to the great nobles.
"Miss Carina, Baron Leon, I express my regret for what happened in the hotel and sincerely apologize for the dangers that both of you have suffered." The old Marquis said in a deep voice: "If you have any need, please speak!"
This was a hush fee. Leon noticed that the other party put Karina in front of the name, not because Nicholas knew Karina.
"Marquis Marquis, you are so kind. I'm fine, but Baron Leon was seriously injured in the assassination..." Corinna said lightly: "I rescued it with a scroll of praise for life."
Hearing the four words "Praise of Life", Marquis Nicholas's pupils shrank significantly.
He was silent for a moment and asked, "I get it."
Corinna smiled slightly: "Of course, the assassin itself is also directed at Baron Leon. It would undoubtedly be unfair to add all the responsibility to the Twilight Hotel."
"Baron Leon came to Tormond this time to do some transactions in the underground black market, but he was not qualified to enter. If you can help, I think that would not be a problem."
Marquis Nicholas looked at Leon deeply and nodded: "Okay!"
The old tiger marquis really lived up to the name of resoluteness and decisiveness. He agreed without hesitation at all.
During this process, except for the politeness of each other when we first met, Leon did not make a single word.
He is not a member of the upper nobles of Tormond City, and naturally he knows nothing about the rules in this circle. It is enough to have Corinna come forward to negotiate. If he really wants to negotiate by himself, he really can't grasp the right measure.
Corinna obviously considered this and in order to get the best supplement for Leon, she stayed it herself.
The simple negotiations ended soon, and Marquis Nicholas stood up and said goodbye and left.
When he reached the door, he stopped and looked back at Corinna and suddenly said, "What's the good thing about this bear boy? Is it worth your treatment for him?"
Corinna was stunned and two red clouds flew out of her pretty face.
Marquis Nicholas looked at Leon meaningfully, and laughed and walked away.
After he left, Corinna whispered to Leon: "I'm leaving. You have to be careful these two days. The other party shouldn't just give up!"
"There are definitely more than three assassins coming this time. Without the cooperation of others, it would be impossible for the Twilight Hotel to discover it so long, so you have to be careful of their attack again!"
"I know, I will be careful." Leon nodded: "Miss Corinna, I won't say much about thanks. You will always be my best friend!"
Corinna smiled softly, her bright eyes became watery, and her voice became much softer: "Best friend, is it really what you hope for?"
As soon as she finished speaking, her graceful figure disappeared at the door, leaving only a faint fragrance.
Leon stood quietly at the door for a moment, and the smile on his face disappeared bit by bit.
Who is it, the assassin sent?
