The Bored Immortal

Chapter 354 A Couple?

Upon seeing these lizardmen in black medieval-style armor, Viktor was trying his best to not laugh since it looked a bit comical and thought that it was probably because he was not used to seeing giant-sized animals wearing clothes. But of course, they didn't really look exactly like a normal lizard but had humanoid features and were standing on their feet with a large thick tail and green scales on their body.

He casually took out his permit while Seraphina also took out hers while slowly becoming calm. She was also getting used to her disguise despite this being the first time she was trying to be someone she was not.

One of the lizardmen checked out their permits while occasionally staring at these two rabbitmen with squinted eyes as if he was scrutinizing every single detail on the permit.

Of course, not everybody had to show permits, especially if they were living in this town named Merling. But these two lizardmen can recognize who and who were not living in this town, thus stopping these two for permits.

Viktor had asked Seraphina before why she picked this town, and the reason she said was that this town was the hotspot for selling goods in the black market and also the place where the dark elves frequented.

So if they wanted to find their thief, this town was the first place to look.

"What is the relationship between you two?" The lizard guard asked in a gruff voice, making Seraphina part her lips, not knowing what to say. She had never done things like these before and thus wasn't expecting such a question.

"She is my wife," Viktor said with a bright smile as he put his hand on her shoulder and pulled her closer to him.

"Eh~" Seraphina let out a small gasp, her expression flustered though she thought that Viktor was trying to convince the guards, and thus she acted naturally by showing a subtle smile.

She had no idea how she was able to go along with this so smoothly, but she knew there was no other choice. However, unlike her expectation, she didn't feel uncomfortable or anything upon having her body press against his. Instead, she could feel his pure aura enveloping her, making her feel more comfortable.

The lizard guard looked at her with narrowed eyes, though Viktor quickly distracted him by saying, "Don't mind my wife. She is very shy, especially in public."

"Hmmm," The lizard guard let out a low grunt as he stepped aside and told them to proceed.

As the two walked inside, Seraphina stayed unnaturally silent while Viktor looked around to see the small houses around him made with nothing but stone and wood while seeing demon families inside some of these houses when he looked through the windows.

Unlike most people on Earth, these people built their houses right on the sides of the street, and some of the houses had their front doors open.

Other than the houses, there were all kinds of small markets and restaurants on this street and a big fountain in the middle.

Orange lamp lights lit up the streets in this town, making it look bright and lively.

He also finally saw some humans walking around, though all of them were wearing grand armors and had weapons on them.

"Uhm…do we have to stay close like this always?" Seraphina couldn't help but break her silence as she asked in a low voice.

Viktor smiled and said with his arm still over her shoulder, "Now that we told them we are a couple, we should act the part to get used to it. Otherwise, some might get suspicious. But if you are uncomfortable then—"

"It's fine…" Seraphina interrupted, thinking that she had to do this to not jeopardize anything and that Viktor was doing this as a necessity. However, even though she was telling herself this, her intuition whispered to her the real reason why Viktor was doing this, and that made her confused.

"Do you have any money on you? Or maybe some illusionary coins?" Viktor asked, though Seraphina shook her head and said, "I can create coins that are not real, but the moment we leave after paying someone, they will realize it is fake, and our identities might get compromised. But I did bring some things we can sell or use as barter. Where do you plan to go?" She asked since she had no idea where to start to find the thief.

"Great. Let's go to that restaurant over there. I think we might get some information from there," Viktor pointed to the restaurant named Blue Springs, where she saw some dark elves sitting inside.

"Be careful. The dark elves enjoy a grand status in this realm and are feared by most races here," Seraphina warned softly.

"Then what about these humans walking around in these big armors? What is that emblem on their chests?" Viktor curiously asked as he also saw some of these humans walking into the same inn he was walking towards.

"Oh, they are the native humans of this realm, and these ones are adventurers. They partner up with a human guild and do all kinds of missions, which includes slaying certain monsters that threaten the safety of towns like these. But most of them do it for the rewards they gain by doing it. Some of them are mages while some are martial art experts or a mix of both," Seraphina explained.

'Haa…I guess there is no place where humans don't exist,' Viktor inwardly shook his head as he entered the inn and led Seraphina towards a seat that was near where two dark elves were sitting and chatting.

However, a group of four adventurers, consisting of three men and one woman, were sitting around a big table, having drinks and eating meat when one of the men, clad in heavy red armor with a bulky body frame, couldn't help but notice the arrival of these two rabbitmen, especially because of the female with such a tempting voluptuous body and her innocent looking beautiful face.
