“Ah, cool!”

Dave laid on the soft couch. He was enjoying the warm demonic aura that was slowly flowing through his body. It was easing his fatigue.

Although Dave was enjoying himself, he did not forget to introduce the treatment to Vincent.

“This is a special project on the fifth floor of Hell’s Rose. The girls here have undergone special training and can cast spells to the smallest extent. These spells do not harm the body. Instead, it relieves physical and mental fatigue, thus achieving a relaxing effect. This is the best enjoyment in the entire Dark Elves World. You can’t find a second one like it!”

Meanwhile, Vincent, who was listening to Dave’s introduction, was drenched in sweat. Cold sweat that was the size of soybeans kept dripping down from his forehead. If he had known that this was the enjoyment that Dave was talking about, he would never have come here with him!

For the Dark Elves who believed in Gajero, they had obtained the aura of the Demon Race. The weak spell that was flowing through their bodies was indeed an extremely comfortable way for them to relax.

However, for Vincent, this spell was no different from torturing himself!

The aura was like maggots in his bones, invading his skin and flesh. At the same time, the dark and vicious demon aura was constantly stimulating Vincent’s inner darkness, causing an indelible negative emotion to rise in his heart.

However, at that moment, Vincent could only suppress his inner emotions and force himself to not make any sound so that he would not be noticed by Dave.

Nevertheless, someone had already noticed Vincent’s strange reaction. This was because Vincent’s reaction was completely different from the usual reactions of the Dark Elves. The one who noticed it was the female Dark Elf who was casting the spell on Vincent!

She was the most outstanding service staff on the fifth floor of Hell’s Rose. Her mastery of magic had reached the acme of perfection. Under normal circumstances, she would not let her guest sweat in pain, therefore, there must be something unusual about this guest!

However, the Dark Elf girl did not dare to say anything. This was because Hell’s Rose would punish the elves that made severe mistakes. They might be demoted to the fifth floor to do business using flesh or even worse, they might be sent to the second floor to be killed by those who loved to kill.

If she took the initiative to tell them about the guest’s strange behavior, and they could not find anything wrong with that guest, then it could only mean that there was something wrong with her method of service. At that time, what awaited her would be the most severe form of punishment from Hell’s Rose.

As the guest was a friend brought by His Highness Dave, even if it was for the sake of the son of the City Lord, Lady Catherine would definitely not let her off.

After thinking about it, the Dark Elf girl could only weaken her spell, hoping to alleviate the pain of the guest before her.

However, Vincent could not sense the good intentions of the Dark Elf girl at that moment, because whether it was a cup of poisoned wine or half a cup of poisoned wine, it was still fatal to him.

At that moment, Vincent’s pain finally reached a point that he could no longer bear. Flames gradually appeared on the surface of his body. He was using the high temperature to dispel the cold invading his body.

When the Dark Elf girl saw this, she almost cried out in shock. The Dark Elves could only use the powers of the Demon Race. Those who could use the power of fire were definitely not real Dark Elves!

However, the young elf still did not dare to say anything, because she was afraid that His Highness Dave would kill her in order to protect the guest.

After living in such a dark and often deadly place for so long, the young elf’s first reaction when encountering problems was always to protect herself first. At that moment, she could only endure the difficulties with this guest.

As long as his identity was not exposed, she would be safe!

The Dark Elf girl gritted her teeth and raised the staff in her hand slightly so that her spell would only form a layer of demonic energy shield above Vincent’s body. It would not touch Vincent’s skin, nor would it corrode his body again. At the same time, it could also shield him from the flames on the surface of his body.

Vincent finally felt the pressure relax. He hurriedly used his World Cleansing Fire to sweep away the cold demonic aura in his body and dry his clothes and sweat.

He finally let out a long sigh of relief. He opened his eyes and tilted his head slightly. He saw the flustered female Dark Elf. His eyes could not help but flash with a hint of conflict.

He had sneaked into Devil Flame City alone. Once his identity was discovered, he would definitely be in a situation that involved death. However, he could not convince himself to kill the innocent maiden in front of him despite wanting to silence her.

Thus, he could only take things one step at a time. As long as the Dark Elf girl did not expose him, then there was still room to turn things around!

When the Dark Elf girl saw Vincent’s gaze, her face could not help but turn pale. This was because she could see that it was a murderous gaze. If she exposed the other party’s identity, she would die. If she did not expose the other party’s identity, she would also die. The first thing she thought of was not to die together with the other party. Instead, she felt sad for her inevitable death.

Suddenly, Vincent’s gaze softened, allowing the Dark Elf girl to see a glimmer of hope. He winked at her and closed his eyes again. He proceeded to lie down on the soft couch whilst pretending like he was enjoying himself.

After seeing Vincent’s reaction toward her, the Dark Elf girl could only continue to maintain her empty spell state and cooperated silently with Vincent.

Finally, the service ended. The two Dark Elves girls put away their magic staff and bowed slightly to their guests.

Dave sat up comfortably and turned to ask Vincent, “How do you feel?”

Vincent sat up and smiled at Dave. He then turned to the Dark Elf girl beside him and said, “It’s my first experience, and I feel a little excited!”

Vincent deliberately emphasized the word ‘exciting’. When the Dark Elf girl beside him heard this, she could not help but tremble in fear.

Dave, who was beside him, had misunderstood Vincent’s meaning. He smiled and said, “These girls have the strength of a level 20 creature. Every one of them has been carefully nurtured. Therefore, they do not accept flesh deals!”

Vincent focused his attention on the Dark Elf girl. After hearing Dave’s words, he nodded silently. Suddenly, he came to his senses and hurriedly turned to Dave and explained, “Your Highness is joking. I do not have such thoughts. Moreover, I will definitely abide by the rules of Hell’s Rose!”

Dave shook his head and said, “No! What I wanted to say is that the rules are for ordinary elves to abide by. As long as you have sufficient power and influence, you can break any rules. For example, now that you have taken a fancy to this lady, with your status, not only would the Hell’s Rose reject you directly, but they might also even throw you to the second floor! However, you have come here with me so it’s different!”

Vincent asked awkwardly, “What’s the difference?”

Dave smiled and turned to the Dark Elf girl beside him. He said, “Go and call Catherine over!”

“Yes!”

The Dark Elf nodded lightly and walked out of the room.

At this time, only Dave and Vincent were left in the room, as well as the Dark Elf girl who had an unsightly expression. She was worrying endlessly about her fate.

Vincent looked at Dave and then at the Dark Elf girl beside him. He wanted to explain himself clearly, but he did not know how to begin. If he explained to one of them, it would cause the other one to misunderstand and he might even expose his identity!

At this point, Vincent could only choose to remain silent and wait for the development of the matter.

After a short while, Catherine walked into the room and said to Dave with a smile, “Is Your Highness satisfied with today’s service?”

Dave nodded and said, “Very satisfied! But there is still a small matter that I want to discuss with you!”

“If Your Highness has something to say, then just tell me! In this Devil Flame City, who would dare to not give Your Highness face?” replied Catherine hurriedly.

Dave raised his hand and pointed at the Dark Elf girl next to Vincent. He said, “This brother of mine came from a poor family. Today is also the first time he had experienced the comfort of a gentle home. Therefore, it is understandable that he secretly has feelings for that girl. I hope that you can fulfill his dream!”

Catherine was slightly surprised when she heard that. She looked at Dave in a daze, then at Vincent in surprise. Finally, she looked at the Dark Elf girl helplessly.

Hell’s Rose indeed had strict rules, but they did not apply to everyone. For example, this son of the City Lord before her!

As long as Dave used his influence as the son of the City Lord and slightly tampered with it, Hell’s Rose might face a great disaster.

Therefore, Catherine did not dare to disobey Dave at all. She smiled and said, “Monica, from today onwards, you belong to this distinguished guest. At the same time, your labor relationship with Hell’s Rose will dissolve from today onwards. The road ahead is long. What kind of future you get depends on your own hard work!”

After hearing that, the Dark Elf girl knelt on the ground with a pale face and said in a panic, “Lady Catherine, please don’t let me go! I don’t want to leave Hell’s Rose!”

Catherine looked down at the Dark Elf girl. She narrowed her eyes and sighed softly, “Strange, don’t all the elves who live in Hell’s Rose want to leave here? Such a good opportunity is available right in front of you, and you actually refuse?”

Monica laid on the ground trembling as if she was hesitating whether to disclose her unspeakable secret.

After seeing the scene, Vincent knew that if Catherine continued to question her harder, he would be exposed. So, he quickly stood up and grabbed Monica’s shoulder. He lifted her up from the ground and hugged her in his arms to prevent her from kneeling again. He smiled and said to Monica, “Girls are always shy about such things. I can understand, and I hope that the beautiful madam can understand too!”

Finally, Vincent turned to look at the Dark Elf girl in his arms and said softly, “Don’t be afraid. I am going to do great things with His Highness Dave in the future. Follow me and I will ensure that you enjoy endless glory and wealth!”

Upon hearing that, Monica’s trembling body gradually calmed down. This was because she had long sensed Vincent’s identity. She understood the meaning behind Vincent’s words at this time.

This strange guest had to stay by His Highness Dave’s side. Even if he wanted to kill her to silence her, it would easily arouse His Highness Dave’s suspicion. Therefore, as long as she cooperated with him, she would be safe temporarily.

After seeing that Monica had stopped resisting, Lady Catherine looked at Vincent in surprise.

The Dark Elf in front of her did not look like a poor elf that had just entered a gentle home. He was not normal. Plus, there was not the slightest bit of desire in his eyes. Yet, a single sentence was enough to pacify a young girl who was panicking. How could he do this if he had never met or spoke to a girl before?

Catherine, who had seen great storms and waves, instantly thought of countless possibilities. She thought that the most likely possibility was that this elf in front of her actually had other identities, but High Highness Dave had deliberately helped him to hide his former identity. That was why he brought him to Hell’s Rose and told her about his new identity. He wanted her to use her own channels to confirm his fake identity.

After thinking it through, Catherine turned her head and said to Dave, “Your Highness, since this distinguished guest has taken away one of my girls, please give me his detailed information so that I can keep him on file for record purposes. At the same time, it will also be convenient for me to look for this distinguished guest in the future and ask him to return the favor!”

Dave smiled and nodded.

“You are so smart! His name is Vincent. He is a native of Devil Flame City. He had lived in the slums since he was young. His strength is average, but he was born with a speed that far surpassed others. I noticed that he was exceptionally talented, so I took him as my personal bodyguard. From now on, he is also the person closest to me. Do you understand?”

Catherine nodded repeatedly when she heard this. She could not help but take another look at Vincent, thinking that this youth was indeed different from the rest. He was actually able to catch the eye of His Highness Dave.

In the entire Devil Flame City and Dark Elves World, other than the two rich nobles who grew up together with His Highness Dave, Vincent was the first elf that Dave mentioned that he was closest to.

Just this alone was enough to prove that Vincent was definitely a talent!

At that moment, Monica, who was in Vincent’s arms, could not help but secretly sigh in relief. She was glad that she did not reveal Vincent’s true identity earlier. Otherwise, if His Highness Dave chose to side with Vincent, then she would definitely die.

Vincent did not expect things to develop like this in the end. He could only bite the bullet and say, “I will pledge my loyalty to His Highness Dave in return for the favor that he has shown me. I will also remember Lady Catherine’s help today. I will definitely repay her in the future when I have the opportunity!”

Dave nodded in satisfaction. The main purpose of bringing Vincent to Hell’s Rose was to confirm his identity so that he could do things for him more conveniently from now on.

Other than that, he also wanted to show Vincent his power and stimulate Vincent’s desire for power. As long as he wanted power, he would need to rely on him and show loyalty to him.

Catherine was naturally a Dark Elf with sharp eyes. She could see that Vincent did things flawlessly. He was someone who could do well in any place. Presumably, his position in Devil Flame City would definitely be extraordinary in the future, hence, she was naturally willing to form a good relationship with him and leave a favor behind!

“For you to be able to gain the favor of His Highness, you must be a young hero. And in this dusty place, the one I respect the most is a hero! From now on, you will be a distinguished guest on the fifth floor. As long as you come here, you will be able to enjoy the most honorable treatment. Later, I will get someone to give you the VIP certificate!” said Catherine with a smile.

Vincent nodded and said, “Thank you!”

Catherine then said to Dave, “Your Highness, the auction will begin soon. I have reserved the best single room for you. Please follow me!”

After hearing that, Dave suddenly stood up and said to Vincent, “Take your girl and follow me! Today, I will let you see the real world!”

Vincent smiled and nodded. He held Monica’s hand and tightened his grip. After Dave and Catherine walked out of the room together, he took Monica along and followed behind them.

The four of them once again arrived at the lift platform. They then slowly sank to the ground. This time, their destination was the ninth floor.

As they did not know how deep the ninth floor was, the lift platform sunk for a very long time. The four of them could only sit on two sofas and wait slowly.

Vincent had just finished acting in front of Dave and Catherine, so he naturally had to be consistent. Therefore, he pulled the flustered Monica up to sit on his lap. It could be said that the two of them occupied a sofa together.

On the other side, Dave was naturally sitting upright on the sofa, while Catherine was naturally sitting on the armrest of the sofa, her back gently leaning against Dave’s shoulder.

However, Dave’s superior identity did not seem to be anything out of the ordinary. Vincent could not help but be surprised to discover that the relationship between Dave and Catherine was actually more intimate than he had imagined.

Whilst the lift platform was moving, Vincent caught a glimpse of the sixth, seventh, and eighth floors of Hell’s Rose.

The sixth floor was like a bar. There were countless Dark Elves inside. They were all horny and lascivious, showing off their madness!

The seventh floor was relatively quiet. There were not many Dark Elves there. There was also nothing out of the ordinary.

The eighth floor was like a bustling blacksmith’s shop. There were countless craftsmen working hard inside.

Dave raised his hand and placed it on Catherine’s thigh. He raised his chin slightly and gestured in Vincent’s direction.

Catherine immediately understood and gave Monica a look. Monica was sitting on Vincent’s lap at that time.

Monica understood and turned to look at Vincent. She said in a trembling voice, “In Hell’s Rose, the sixth floor is a place for indulgence, the seventh floor is the intelligence trading center, and the eighth floor is a place for forging weapons and special equipment. The ninth floor that we are going to is where the auction house is!”

Vincent nodded slightly. He noticed Dave and Catherine, who were opposite him, sizing him up. Only then did he realize that Monica’s thoughtful introduction was because of them. He smiled and said, “I really didn’t expect that there would be such a magical place in Devil Flame City. I wonder who created this place?”

After hearing Vincent’s question, Monica could not help but look at him blankly. Catherine also pursed her lips and shook her head slightly, because they had no way of knowing the origin of Hell’s Rose.

Only Dave smiled and said, “There are some secret legends about the origin of Hell’s Rose! It is said that in ancient times, the Seven Great Elf Kings fought together against an evil god who invaded this world. In that great battle, the evil god died and vanished. However, the evil god’s weapon fell from the sky and smashed into the ground, creating a bottomless pit. Under the management of countless generations, the cave was slowly developed into the Hell’s Rose that you see today!”
