Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead - Chapter 510
Chapter 510: Chapter 426, Unexpected Love_1
Tracking a person is not a glorious task.
However, Rolana’s unusual behavior recently
made Fang Hao suspicious about her activities.
After some consideration, he decided to find out where she was going and what she was up to.
The Skeleton Sparrow followed her from afar, just keeping her within sight, careful not to get too close.
The power of a Dark Gold-level hero necessitated extra caution.
Especially if that hero belonged to the esteemed Dark Gold-level Blood Clan and walked under the moonlight.
Rolana strolled down the empty streets as if she was merely out for a walk.
Recently, the streets were filled with troops on patrol, there seemed to be fewer drunks and vagabonds.
Eventually, Rolana arrived at the City Lord’s Mansion.
The servants opened the gates and welcomed Rolana inside.
So she did come to the City Lord’s Mansion after all.
Fang Hao flew up high, his line of sight crossing over the stone walls of the mansion, watching as the servants escorted Rolana to the garden on one side of the mansion.
Fang Hao was familiar with that place, Rebecca often sat by the lake on a swing seat, reading.
Since Rolana did not enter any buildings, Fang Hao circled around in the air before finally landing on top of Stone Castle, overseeing the courtyard from high above.
Rolana walked through the flower bushes, moving towards the lakeside.
Rebecca, donned in a casual flowing white gown, was already waiting there on the swing seat.
Upon seeing Rolana arrive, she greeted her with a warm smile on her face.
From their interaction, it was clear that Rolana and Rebecca were close. Despite not knowing what they were talking about, Fang Hao could see the smiles on their faces.
They seemed like close girlfriends, chatting about the latest gossip.
Fang Hao watched from the rooftop for a while.
Then he planned to leave. Rolana’s past was not a pleasant one, so finding a confidante, a close friend she could pour her heart out to was a good thing.
Furthermore, Rebecca’s scholarly and virtuous character meant she wouldn’t lead Rolana astray; if anything, it was more concerning Rolana might corrupt Rebecca instead.
Having settled his thoughts, Fang Hao was just about to take off…
…when he saw Rolana sit down on the swing seat, cuddling up with Rebecca.
Although they continued their conversation, the atmosphere felt strange to Fang Hao.
Rolana was tall and leggy, an absolute rarity among the vamp-ish beauties.
In comparison, Rebecca embodied the charm of mature womanhood, voluptuous and radiating an aura of sophistication and elegance.
The sight was indeed quite pleasing to the eyes.
Only when the night grew thick did Rolana rise to leave. She kissed Rebecca softly on the forehead, like a graceful gentleman, and followed the servants out of the City Lord’s Mansion.
Once outside the mansion, Rolana didn’t hurry off.
Instead, she circled around the mansion and killed two assassins lurking in the shadows.
It seemed that Rolana had been protecting Rebecca for some time now.
Now aware of Rolana’s motives, Fang Hao had the Skeleton Sparrow fly far from Rolana’s sight before heading home.
The Skeleton Sparrow zipped in through the window, and Fang Hao deactivated God’s Presence. He ignited the Nightstone lantern and prepared to rest in bed.
Shortly afterward, he heard footsteps in the courtyard; it appeared that Rolana had returned.
…
The next morning.
Fang Hao saw Rolana at the dining table.
She was once again dressed in unisex clothing, but her mood was visibly better that day, occasionally chatting about local gossip with Anjia and Millie.
“You need something?” Rolana looked at Fang Hao.
Since they began eating, she felt Fang Hao’s gaze upon her.
“You seem to be in a good mood lately, got any good news to share?” Fang Hao asked while eating.
Everything he saw yesterday still felt rather unreal.
If she had caught a human to use as a Blood Slave, or gone berserk and destroyed the temple, he would have found those within his expectations.
But Rolana’s change in sexual preference came as a surprise to Fang Hao.
Of course, the scene involving two enchanting beauties did have a certain appeal.
If it had involved two burly, bearded men kissing, he probably wouldn’t have been able to eat for several days.
“Nothing really, is there something you want to tell me?” Rolana asked curiously.
Perhaps because she had a secret, Rolana, typically proud and aloof, now seemed a bit evasive with her eyes.
“I’ll be going back to my territory for a few days. If you’re going to stay here, look after ‘Rebecca’. She’s being targeted by the Faceless, and she doesn’t really have anyone capable around her,” said Fang Hao casually, leaning back on his chair.
Rolana furrowed her eyebrows, looking at Fang Hao with suspicion.
“You want me to stay in Lyss City, looking after Rebecca?”
“What’s wrong? I’m not assigning you tasks, just looking after a friend. After all, Rebecca’s been good to us,” Fang Hao continued.
[The Beauty of the Lonely Night – Rolana Ann Tobias’s Loyalty towards you increased by 10 points, current Loyalty is 40.]
In an instant, Rolana’s Loyalty towards him increased by 10 points.
Caught off guard by the sudden spike, Fang Hao almost lost his balance and fell off his chair.
Even when he had gifted her the Bone Dragon, relocated the citizens of her domain,
the increment had only been meager.
As their Lord, he owed her the favor of resurrection.
But he didn’t hold much credibility in Rolana’s eyes.
When he had asked her to stay back and oversee the medicinal herb planting by the residents in Blood Castle,
she didn’t listen, handed the task to the Blood Hunter, and came to Lyss City instead.
