Riding and Slashing

Chapter 16 Vixen

The boss's delay and the business he said were all related to that fox-like woman.

That pretty fox is going to find a team to take her out of Sarleon and head for Long River.

And she found the tavern owner as an intermediary - this is a very common practice, the sources of information in places like taverns are quite rich, and each tavern owner usually knows a lot of adventurer teams.

And the reason why the tavern owner is so active is that he obviously thinks this woman is a trouble, and he doesn't want this kind of trouble to stay in his shop for too long.

And he couldn't get her out—the woman was a nobleman.

Of course, it can't be ruled out that it's because the boss also has some unrealistic ideas about that woman...

"Such a woman should be very famous, right? What's her name?"

Li Ang didn't want to cause trouble either, but people are always curious, and a mentality that all men have made him ask this question out of nowhere.

"Famous indeed...Her name is Sarah, 'Vixie' Sarah, a well-known traveling bard."

Li Ang was stunned.

She is Sarah...

A traveling bard who came from aristocratic background, acted alone, and looked extremely beautiful... Coupled with a nickname like "Vixie", this is enough to explain Sarah's acting style and unique ability.

Having such a person in the team can of course bring unexpected help to the development of the territory-especially when facing some things that cannot be solved by fighting alone.

Li Ang planned to chat with that beautiful fox.

So he wolfed down the food and went downstairs with the tavern owner—it wasn't because he couldn't wait, he was really hungry.

Sarah was sitting in the corner of the tavern, gently playing a xylophone that looked like a lute.

There was a glass of ale on the table.

"I'm Leon Griffin, a pioneer lord. I heard from the boss, do you want to find a team to take you to Changhe Town?"

Li Ang didn't beat around the bush, and got straight to the point when he sat opposite Sarah.

The boss thoughtfully brought a glass of ale and put it in front of Li Ang: "This glass is free." After speaking, he nodded to Sarah who was a little confused, indicating that he had indeed looked for Li Ang, and then returned to his bar.

Sarah smiled slightly, and looked at Li Ang seriously: "What a handsome young man...Mr. Li Ang, I seem to have seen you this afternoon..."

Apparently Sarah was in the shop when the hapless drunk was looking for something that evening.

Li Ang curled his lips: "Let's talk about business, Miss Sarah, what trouble did you get into to leave Lion City?"

For nobles, this is an impolite way of speaking.But the smile on Sarah's face didn't change at all, and she didn't seem to care about it at all.

"It's not really a big problem...just that some clingy guy wants to marry me, and he doesn't care if I want to..."

Sarah spoke quite calmly, it seems that this is not the first time this has happened to her...

Sarah then told Leon her story.

As a traveling bard, she has been traveling in various cities on the mainland, and has traveled half of the continent so far.

The funds to support her travels all the time come from the services she provided to nobles everywhere—she is an excellent singer with a graceful singing voice, and is very popular in various banquets.

Of course, if the pay is adequate, or if she likes her employer, she can also 'entertain' in other ways - she has more than just a singing voice.

But this kind of life will always cause some 'clients' to pester...

Li Ang noticed the flying knife and long sword on her waist, and saw the calluses on her fingers—only skilled fighters would have such calluses.

Apparently on more than one occasion she has had to use force to escape certain 'sticky' clients...

And this time, she met a client who was crazy about her and couldn't use violence to leave-it was the Duke's son.

Maybe it was a coincidence, maybe it was fate, that client happened to be Li Ang's client in the Foggy City Arena, the illegitimate son Fucher.

"Miss Sarah, Forscher had an accident on the west coast—he's limping... I don't think he'll be back in Sarleon for a while, so you don't need to be so worried."

After careful consideration, Li Ang planned to tell Sarah the truth.

"Mr. Li Ang even knows this... It is because I just received the news that he is lame, so I have to leave as soon as possible. I think you can think of the reason."

Li Ang froze for a moment, shook his head and smiled wryly: "Well, that's true..."

A dandy young master, who has nothing to do after being lame, naturally has a lot of free time to do things like marrying beautiful women, and his family background guarantees his safety.

When Forscher returns to Sarleon City, it may be really hard for Sarah to get away.

"Since that's the case, you can leave now by yourself. I think it shouldn't be difficult to go to Changhe Town by yourself with your skills?"

Li Ang pointed to the sword on Sarah's body.

Sarah took out her wallet straightforwardly, turned it over and shook it.

Only a few poor silver coins fell out of the wallet.

That is dirham, one dinar is almost exchanged for ten dirhans.

In fact, in Pande, the dirham is the currency most commonly used by ordinary people. Such a silver coin can probably buy two kilograms of bread.

The few silver coins in Sarah's hand are probably enough for her to live in this hotel for another day.

"Faucher's personality is a bit bad. Ever since I was entangled by him, no nobleman in Sarleon City dared to do my business... In order to avoid his servants, I even had to hide in this inn and only dared to come out at night .”

The expression on Sarah's face finally changed, and she seemed a little helpless.

There are no people in the tavern at night, so the bard naturally has no income.

It is really difficult for a beautiful woman with no money to go to Changhe Town alone...

"So, Miss Sarah, are you looking for an employer?"

"Yes. You have probably seen it. I can use a sword, and I can use it well. I can also compose some tunes to praise your pioneering achievements in this continent. Of course, other services are also available—if If you need it, Mr. Leon."

Sarah blinked her big watery eyes and looked at Li Ang.

Li Ang looked at this 'fox spirit', and naturally thought of the bed again.

He sat up straight, took out a handful of gold coins from his pocket and started counting.

"Of course I need some more special services...Miss Sarah."

Sarah also sat up straight, propped her chin with her hands, and smiled even more charmingly.

"I want you to be in charge of the communication affairs of my team - I need the customs and customs you have seen and heard during your travels in the mainland, I need the various heresies and mysterious beliefs you know, and I also need the information you know about nobles from all over the world - Detailed information, including what color their underwear was..."

Sarah was stunned, disbelief written all over her delicate face.

She didn't recover until Li Ang finished counting the money.

"That's one hundred dinars, enough I suppose to keep you employed for a long time?"

Sarah accepted the money somewhat mechanically, with a dazed expression on her face.

"I haven't asked for your last name yet? Miss Sarah."

"I'm sorry... I can't say my last name... It will only shame it. But I promise, this will be the only thing I will hide from you, Lord Leon."

Li Ang nodded seriously, without any lustful look in his eyes.

"Sarah the 'Vixen' has joined your party."
