Chapter 252 Roxleys? How Convenient...



Chapter 252 Roxley's? How Convenient...

This month, Davis had been too busy to even worry about anything else.

After he bought the residence, he picked a room and started to learn alchemy from the First Layer.

Since he was well versed in the Alchemy from the Second Layer, it only took a month to digest the contents of the First Layer.

This helped him become proficient until up to Peak-Level Earth Grade Alchemy, even when compared to the ones in the First Layer since he possessed the knowledge of the alchemists of the Second Layer as well.

But two weeks ago, he did face an assassination attempt which he later found out that it was executed by the Roxley Family.

He did expect this to happen and wasn't surprised and even quickly put an end to it, saving Natalya in the process.

Honestly, he was engrossed with learning and his reactions were late. So he thought that she would be dead by the time he finished killing the 2 assassins who came to kill him first, but it wasn't like that to his surprise which ultimately ended up in him saving her.

He guessed that the assassin who went to kill her surprisingly had other thoughts other than instantly executing the target.

'I wonder what's with her? Sneakily glancing at me all the time...' Throwing the incident in the back of his mind, Davis thought as he rubbed his chin.

Looking back, all she did was deliver him spirit juices during rest time which didn't even last for a minute every day and glance at him curiously from time to time.

Other than this, from using his Soul Sense, he noticed her doing menial jobs like cleaning the whole residence every morning, sitting in front of a water pond that's filled with fishes, sighing from time to time while glancing at the sunset.

All this caused him to feel that she was at loss with what had happened to her before she met with him.

'Well, without her information, I wouldn't have gained this residence at all...' Wryly laughing, he thought of doing something to help her come back to her senses.

The magical beast looked left and right before staying still like it was waiting for someone.

Davis noticed that and saw a little piece of letter tied to its leg. He swiftly arrived in front of it and took the piece of letter from its leg, reading it.

A smile inevitably formed upon his face as he let the bird-like magical beast fly away.

Surprisingly, the message was from Tina Roxley indicating that she took care of the problem that originated from her family.

She didn't apologize nor did she send any kind of compensation but just wrote a few lines indicating that she took care of the problem.

Davis didn't know why but this woman gave off a good impression as if she was looking out for him but at the same time, he also got the feeling that she was keeping tabs on him.

He silently chuckled and was not surprised by her family's intelligence network as they did manage to find him in a small residence.

After all, he already gave his nickname to her, which was Scythe.

'Why is she helping me? Did she send this letter make me owe her one?'

Thoughts swirled around his head. He couldn't figure out what this woman was thinking, 'Maybe, the Roxley Family isn't full of evil people...'

Thinking about figuring out one's thoughts, his focus returned to Natalya.

'I've left her to her own devices for a month, and if this keeps up, she will become reliant on me or someone else.' Davis contemplated and decided to give her some advice for his sake so that she won't bother him when it's time to leave.

Getting off the bed, he went to her room which was located far away from his room in terms of walking distance.

The residence housed about 34 quarters which had many rooms that were usable by 34 families, each consisting of parents and children.

Other than that, there were also a large number of small rooms used for other purposes.
