"Why do I have to suffer like this?"
Luo Men rubbed his chest and said with a bitter smile.
It was already the next day. He woke up early and prepared breakfast in the kitchen.
This was not what Ling wanted him to do, but what he wanted to do. Since he had no money to pay the rent, he should at least repay her with some practical actions.
Of course, if this matter caused her favorability to increase, it would be considered a coincidence and she would treat it as an unexpected income.
Soon, Luo Men prepared poached eggs and fried sausages with ready-made ingredients. He put the toast into the bread machine and heated up two glasses of milk. For someone like him who had been handling household chores since he was young, this problem was solved very quickly.
After that, he began to clean the room. Ling's ability to do housework was lower than the average person's, and it was obvious that he was very sloppy in his daily cleaning work. Luo Men had cleaned the living room and the stairs from top to bottom, not even missing the gaps of the sofa. This was worthy of these expensive furniture.
Seeing that it was getting late, Luo Men hesitated to wake Ling up. It was difficult for her to wake up in the morning due to low blood pressure, and she was extremely angry when she woke up. If possible, Luo Men didn't want to die…
Fortunately, Ling's room door opened at that moment, and he greeted her in his pajamas," Good morning."
Her hair was still disheveled, but she looked completely awake. Her pajamas were also of a normal style, and she couldn't look forward to revealing herself.
Her eyes lit up as she walked down the stairs. She looked at the clean room and said in disbelief,
"Did you do all of this?"
"There's no one else in this house besides you and me, right?”
Luo Men smiled proudly as he washed his hands and sat down with Ling at the dining table.
After taking a bite of the poached egg dipped in soy sauce, Ling's entire body shook, and his expression relaxed.
"It's so delicious! Why is a poached egg so delicious? It's just a poached egg!"
"It's a unique recipe. It's not convenient to spread it.”
Seeing Ling's blissful expression, Luo Men smiled happily. At the same time, a tiny heart floated out of Ling's forehead and entered the ring on his left hand.
Seeing her cute expression and increasing her favorability, this morning's labor was worth it.
After breakfast, Ling changed into his school uniform and twin ponytails. He looked like a top student in school, carrying his school bag as he stood at the entrance and said to Luo Men,"
"What do you want? It's fine even if you stay in my house, but you're not allowed to touch anything.”
"Don't worry, I don't want to take another punch.”
Luo Men said with an evil smile. His words made Rin Farasaka suddenly blush, and he slammed the door with a grunt.
She also knew that she had been too impulsive yesterday. Luo Men had only gone to help after hearing her voice. He had also gotten rid of the cockroach, but he had used his full strength to send him flying. However, the reality of her naked body made her not want to apologize.
…But how did he hear my voice? Moreover, it was fine to be sent flying. If it was an ordinary person, they would definitely bleed internally, right?
Ling finally realized Luo Men's unusual physical ability. However, the situation last night happened very quickly, so she did not pay much attention to it. In the end, she just thought that she was thinking too much.
On the other side, Luo Men, who was staying at Ling's place, was washing the dishes, looking like a good husband at home. After settling the household chores, he said to Reimei,
"Reimei, can you remove the barrier that Ling set up without being discovered?”
It wasn't impossible, but it would consume magic power. Now, as long as it wasn't a high-level barrier, he should be able to remove fifteen or sixteen.
"Okay, that's enough."
Luo Men smiled confidently.
Of course, he didn't want to just freeload food and sleep at Ling's house. Since they were already in the world of Fate, they had to get involved in the Holy Grail War if they wanted to get in touch with the main characters.
However, he was not a Magician. At this point in time, he probably could not become a Master. Then he had to show off some of his strength, or at least make Ling see him as a helper.
"Let me see, basement, basement…"
While cleaning the room, Luo Men had already figured out the structure of the Yuan Ban family. He walked straight to the basement door in the backyard, pulled the iron door, and opened it easily.
Rin didn't even activate the chain, because the inside was already protected by multiple barriers. Ordinary people wouldn't even be able to see this door.
If he went down the stairs casually, the alarm barrier inside would be activated, and Ling would know that someone had entered no matter where he was. If anyone touched anything valuable inside, not only would the enchantment set up by Ling be activated, but even the antiques left behind by Tokiomi from ten years ago would be activated.
Lei Mei's sharp senses detected each and every one of them, and she cracked them one by one. Luo Men carefully followed her instructions and entered the basement…Then he smiled bitterly because of the decorations inside.
Half of the basement was filled with imaginary bookshelves and strange props. On the other side, there were dumbbells, a treadmill, a chest stretcher, and even some inexplicable fitness props such as boxing stakes from China.
" Speaking of which, Rin Kisaka has always been very concerned about his figure. He would do twenty sit-ups every day before he went to bed…If Tokiomi knew that his magic workshop was ruined by his daughter, I wonder if he would be so angry that he would come back to life.”
Luo Men was careful not to touch anything else. He found the only table in the corner. There was already a small jewelry box on it.
This was a necklace passed down from an unknown ancestor of the Tosaka family. It stored magic power equivalent to ten years of refinement by Rin Tosaka. One had to know that Rin was already a genius that only appeared once in a hundred years. The magic power of this necklace could be imagined.
It was only the night before she summoned the Heroic Spirit that she finally removed the seal and took out the necklace. In other words, she was still working hard to remove it. Luo Men placed his hand on the box and asked Lei Mei,
"How is it? Can you untie it?"
It's a little complicated, and it's not just one layer. There are about five or six layers of barriers. Do you need to use up all of my magic power?
"Of course I'll do it."
Leimei replied with a 'Understood' and started to fight against the barrier of the box through the magic array tattoo on Luo Men's left hand.
A hot magic power spread from his shoulder to the back of his hand through his blood vessels. It felt like a hot iron rod had been inserted into his hand, making Luo Men frown in discomfort. The human body and magic power were mutually exclusive, and a magician had to endure this kind of pain.
After about ten minutes, the light from the magic array on her left hand gradually weakened. Reimu said tiredly,"'It's done.'
Luo Men opened the jewelry box expectantly. He didn't encounter any resistance, and the familiar ruby pendant lay there quietly. Luo Men held it in his hand and looked at it carefully.
"This seems to be a gemstone over a hundred years old…and it's so big. How much would it be worth if it was sold…The Tozaka family's magic tricks are good in other aspects, but they burn too much money.”
Luo Men put the necklace away and returned to his room.
Next, he only needed to think of a reasonable explanation so that Ling would treat him as a companion.
Looking at the sky outside the large French windows, Luo Men couldn't help but sigh,
" Ling, it's not that I want to lie to you, but it's all Shi Chen's fault…"
