The Great Thief Chapter 941 – Good and Evil

Translator: Halcyon Translations Editor: Halcyon Translations

The little Dwarf didn’t know who Lu Li was talking to, but continued to talk about all the evils that Drunken Heart had committed.

“Yeah, that’s pretty horrible,” Lu Li said as he nodded his head.

Truthfully, Lu Li did not have much interest in these things. There were too many things that were unfair in the world. He did not want to be the little Dwarf’s knight in shining armour, but she had what he wanted. Therefore, whatever the she said was correct.

He did not even bother to find out the truth.

You could say that he was heartless. However, he was a person who was already used to the lifestyle of doing what he had to in order to get what he wanted.

Buggy and his team did not let Lu Li wait. After a few minutes, Lu Li received a System message indicating that a video was being sent.

After confirming to accept the video, a CD-like item appeared in his hand.

“This is what you wanted. Double-check and see if it’s correct,” Lu Li said as he transferred the item into her storage. “If there aren’t any problems, then I hope we can make the exchange now.”

She had not expected Lu Li to send an item like that as confirmation, as she was still hoping for him to do his thing.

After playing the CD, a hologram opened up in front of her.

Drunken Heart was a Dwarf Warrior by class. At that moment, he was doing quests in Stratholme in a 10-man squad. However, there were other players around him who had donned the ‘Jump to Hit Your Knees’.

Suddenly, a few silhouettes appeared with masks on, wearing greyish-black leather armour. This group of people did not care about the other players and went straight for Drunken Heart.

Drunken Heart was a player who had fairly good mechanics, and he immediately casted a Whirlwind.

This kill could negate some forms of crowd control, so it would give his team some time to support him. The choice wasn’t bad, so he could not be faulted on it. However, before the Whirlwind’s duration was over, he had been killed.

The whole process did not even last 5 seconds.

The group of assassins did not even bother to dodge his attacks. After all, Drunken Heart had given up DPS for tankiness, so his attacks were not lethal.

Moreover, his assailant’s attackswere terrifyingly strong.

After killing Drunken Heart, a few people instantly looted the items as the team of assassins disappeared.

Drunken Heart’s teammates stared in utter disbelief. By the time they had refocused, the assassins had already escaped.

The little Dwarf was completely stunned. Her hands were shaking as she pointed at Lu Li in shock and stammered, “You…you guys…”

“Are you satisfied with the result?” Lu Li was not angry at the fact that this was being showed in public since both him and Square Root were wearing masks anyway.

As for what happened to the little Dwarf now, it did not matter to Lu Li.

“Alright. We’ve killed him once already. Are you going to give us the reward?” Square Root asked as he looked at her straight in the eye with a smile. After all, he was worried that she would bail on the deal.

Fortunately, after she had recovered from the initial shock, she gave them the rock.

“Farewell.”

After Lu Li had received the item, he immediately left Jacinth. After all, these were all players in Ironforge. The people from Jump to Hit Your Knees were bound to receive this news very quickly.

Square Root was not as cold as Lu Li, so he suggested a way for her to live.

“Most people would have known that you hired hitmen to kill Drunken Heart. If you’re scared, then head to Darnassus and try joining Drizzle Court.”

“Oh…” The little Dwarf knew that she had created trouble for herself. She left shortly after paying for the drinks.

After equipping the stone, Lu Li donned the Boots of Champions. He then decided to return the Phantom Cloak to Water Fairy and thank her for it.

Upon arriving at the rendezvous point that he had agreed with Water Fairy, he did not see her there. He was standing in a grove in the region of Darnassus. Many unnamed white flowers grew here, similar to Peaceblooms. However, these flowers were much smaller than Peaceblooms and had a slight sweet scent.

Lu Li had no idea about this place.

“I’m here! Where are you?”

Perhaps she had wanted to test and show off her Stealth abilities.

“Up top!”

Lu Li raised his head, then saw a female player wearing a white outfit sitting on the tree.

She wasn’t wearing her usual grey leather outfit this time – instead, it looked like Cloth. It wasn’t that Thieves could not wear Cloth-type Armor, but Cloth-type Armor did not have class restrictions.

“I’m here to return your equipment,” Lu Li said as he gazed upon Water Fairy while she was hanging on the tree. He had thought that high-class ladies like her were rare.

Water Fairy then hopped off the tree and said, “I still haven’t congratulated you for winning the competition.”

“Thanks to your equipment.”

Lu Li was taller than Water Fairy by a fair bit, so he could see that she had some white flowers in her hair.

On a normal person, this would not have looked good. However, Water Fairy was beautiful enough that she could make anything look amazing.

“Is Su Mei pretty?” she suddenly asked.

“Yeah, she is,” Lu Li answered honestly. After all, if he had said that Su Mei wasn’t pretty, then there would not be anyone who was considered ‘pretty’ in the world by his standards.

However, Lu Li still thought that Water Fairy was more beautiful.

“Oh, that’s right, she says hello!” Lu Li suddenly remembered, then asked her out of curiosity, “Do you guys already know each other?”

“Yeah. We go to the same university and are in the same faculty. But why did she want you to say hello to me?”

“Ah, I see. Then you guys must be good friends with each other. I’m not sure how she knew that we are familiar with each other.”

Water Fairy was hysterical after hearing Lu Li.

“We’re not really friends. Anyway, just don’t get too familiar to her. She’s not that good of a person.”

“I mean, she came along to train with me since she said that she was an ambassador for the game.” Lu Li was helpless regarding the complicated relationship between females.

“Anyway, just don’t believe anything she says,” Water Fairy said with an extremely serious expression.

“What do you have against her anyway?” Lu Li felt like it was best that he understood the situation.

“There’s not much between us. It’s more like I don’t want you to fall for her tricks. She’s extremely popular at the university, so a lot of guys go after her. However, none of them ended up well. Every single one of them were played like a toy,” Water Fairy said, then stared straight at Lu Li and added, “Even people like you would be done in really quickly.”

“Alright then. I’ll ignore her in the future,” Lu Li said, then returned the cloak and took out his old boots. “I’ll also give these to you.”

“Oh wow! Really?” Water Fairy did not suspect whether there were any abnormalities in Lu Li’s old equipment. She was the type of girl that wanted the best equipment. Lu Li had known that she would like this.

Water Fairy was not like a normal girl. Had he taken Square Root’s advice and gave her things like flowers, she probably would not have even batted an eyelid.
