After leaving the ruins of the old city, it was still dark, and there were still three or four hours until dawn.

The group returned to the Stigma Skin Fortress, and Jiang Xiaotan asked someone to arrange a clean small room for Sophie so that she could rest.

But he himself encountered a problem.

Abel refused to go to other rooms to rest, and insisted on staying in his room.

Although Jiang Xiaotan didn't need to sleep, he actually wanted to lie down in bed and take a nap after a battle.

But since his wayward sister wanted to occupy his bed, there was nothing he could do.

So after he settled Abel, he returned to the outside, arranged four guest chairs in a row, and then lay down on them.

However, due to his height, his feet were still hanging in the air.

So he had to move the chairs slightly apart to leave a certain gap in the middle, and then he reluctantly lay down.

But even so, he didn't get a good rest at all.

In the hours until dawn, a total of four people came to look for him.

Not long after he closed his eyes, Abel quietly came out of the room, covered Jiang Xiaotan's wool blanket on him, and snorted before going back.

In order to avoid embarrassment, Jiang Xiaotan naturally pretended to be asleep.

Not long after, Lianka sneaked in quietly, glanced at Jiang Xiaotan who was lying on the chair, then went out and came back, covering Jiang Xiaotan with another blanket.

Before leaving, she stroked Vanilla a few times. Vanilla, who seemed to be asleep, obviously opened her eyes, but continued to pretend to be asleep like Jiang Xiaotan.

The third person who came in was Eveli. She probably noticed Lenka coming with a blanket, and maybe because she was afraid that the two blankets would be too hot to kill him, she even covered him with another blanket.

And before she left, she secretly kissed Jiang Xiaotan on the cheek.

But the excitement for Jiang Xiaotan was not as great as when she just leaned over and covered Jiang Xiaotan with a blanket.

That's a weight that even three layers of blankets can't bear.

Finally, just before dawn, Margaret arrived.

She was the only one who knocked on the door and came in.

But it was just a symbolic knock.

And what she did when she came in was to cover Jiang Xiaotan with the three layers of blankets that he quietly kicked to the ground.

He even carefully pressed one side of the blanket under Jiang Xiaotan to prevent him from pushing away again.

How considerate this is.

Jiang Xiaotan was so considerate that he even wanted to cry.

Before leaving, she put her face in front of Jiang Xiaotan, pouted for a long time but finally lacked the courage to kiss him.

In the end, she actually picked up Jiang Xiaotan's hand, put it on top of her head and rubbed it.

After doing this, she stood up and saw Abel standing at the inner door with red eyes in the dark night.

Margaret was obviously frightened. Facing Abel's murderous look, she curtsied and then disappeared in a puff of smoke.

Then Abel walked up to Jiang Xiaotan, pulled off the two extra blankets on his body, and threw them out the door.

After doing this, she actually tried to get into Jiang Xiaotan's arms, but ultimately failed because the chair was too narrow.

In the end, Jiang Xiaotan pretended to turn over, making her think that she had woken up her brother, and then she ran away.

In fact, Jiang Xiaotan didn't sleep at all that night!

With these four living treasures here, he is still sleeping like a ghost!

After scaring Abel back into the room, Jiang Xiaotan simply sat up, took his silver sword and went to the martial arts arena to practice sword practice with the demon.

He practiced until three o'clock in the morning, when the hunters and vampire reserve soldiers entered the martial arts field one after another, he stopped practicing and walked to his room.

As he passed the recreation room, he heard the sound of dry radish chirping.

Turning around, he saw Daisy and Sophie sitting in front of the chessboard playing chess, and Luo Luogan, the little elf, obviously didn't know the saying that "a true gentleman watches chess but doesn't speak".

Under its nagging and random instructions, Bingshan's face turned even more livid, while Daisly's face turned bright.

This made Jiang Xiaotan a little surprised. These two mages, who were both born in West Francis, met naturally.

In fact, he didn't know that Sophie found Daisy on purpose.

The intelligence agent of the Council of Mages in the Eastern Continent had already reported the information about Desili to the Council. Sophie came here by chance and remembered the incident about Deslie.

She specifically sought out the legendary necromancer and wanted to persuade her to return to the Council.

Of course, the "persuasion" thing is mainly done by Luodian.

Throughout the whole process, Sophie looked at Desiree with what she thought was sincerity, but in fact she looked at her with a cold expression.

Daisy was not in a hurry to return to the Council of Mages because of her father's affairs, but she couldn't stand Sophie and Carrot's insistence, so she proposed to use a game of chess to determine the outcome. If Daisy lost, she would follow Sophie back.

West Francis.

Sophie, who had never played chess before, actually agreed. She thought chess was a war game in which puppets were controlled by magic.

After the actual operation, Sophie was dumbfounded. Although she was a talented mage, she was not very good at this kind of chess game.
