Jenkins supported the lightning rod on the top of the tower and looked at the fire crows in the sky in the rain. In the pouring rain, there were not many pedestrians in the city, but the fireballs that fell from the sky still caused a small commotion.
Looking down at the mortals who are as big as ants on the ground from a height, a sense of loneliness arises spontaneously, followed by contempt and indifference towards mortals.
"Oh, what was I thinking?"
Jenkins quickly broke free from that strange emotion. His strength increased so fast that he almost lost his mind. But fortunately, the stranger has experienced too many things in the first 20 years of his life, and this little mental imbalance is nothing at all.
"... Devil!"
He finally summoned the twin demons completely, and following the command, the hideous phantom behind him shot directly into the sky from the top of the clock tower like a cannonball.
Although demons walked along the ground when using this ability in the past, the essence of the ability seems to be to move at high speed and not restrict the terrain.
The black phantom rushing out of the rain didn't attract anyone's attention at first. But with the roar of the devil enough to pollute the spirit, Fire Raven still noticed the strange shadow flying from below.
drop ~ drop drop ~ drop drop ~
The internal beeping sound of the shadow became more and more dense, and the speed of the black shadow became faster and faster. After realizing that it was impossible to dodge, the fire crows quickly gathered together and formed a real fireball.
Then the fireball and the black shadow collided head-on in the rainy sky. Due to the high altitude and the cover of the sound of the rain, the astonishing explosion sound and the wanton black afterflame were not noticed by more people.
And when the people who noticed the strange sound raised their heads, apart from the rain, there was only a trace of black air flowing in the sky. And when I tried to see clearly again, even the black air flow was gone.
Jenkins was the closest to observe. After the explosion, what fell from the sky was not a large number of Firecrow corpses, but a middle-aged woman with a slightly fat body.
Jenkins quickly brought the cat down from the clock tower, and then according to his memory, he found the female corpse hanging on a sprouting tree in a remote alley.
She is obviously dead, and the aura that has not completely disappeared means that she is the group of fire crows just now.
"Alien? This is interesting."
Jenkins said in his heart, and raised his hand to poke at the back of the female corpse's clothes. When the clothes were pulled away, he saw the familiar [Alien Frenzy] tattoo.
"Sure enough, it's another alien species with tattoos, but I don't know what race she belongs to. The power of turning into a fire crow is very similar to the vampire bat group."
In order not to cause trouble, I turned around and wanted to leave this sensitive place, but then I thought of a more interesting question:
"Why do the aliens with tattoos I met three times have the power of fire?"
"Meow~"
Chocolate is happy that Jenkins has finally spotted the anomaly.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier. When I got the girls' reply letters in the mailbox and looked for the key to open the door, the rain in the sky seemed like someone was pouring rainwater on the ground with a basin.
Chocolat had probably never seen such a terrifying natural phenomenon, and was so frightened that he hid in Jenkins' arms and refused to come out.
After Jenkins entered the house, he jumped out of his clothes immediately and stood on the back of the sofa looking at him from afar.
"Don't be afraid, I won't bathe you today."
Jenkins reassured that he knew exactly what his cat was worrying about.
"Meow~"
But the cat still doesn't approach Jenkins, after all, it knows how good a liar Jenkins is.
While wiping their hair with a towel, they read the girls' letters and, as expected, they all agreed to go to the opera with Jenkins in the evening.
The joy of Hathaway and Britney can be seen between the lines, and Jenkins is sincerely happy. When he invited them, he had already told them that he had invited another person.
"I'm going to the opera with my friends tonight, do you want to go with me?"
He asked his cat, who was sniffing the apple on the coffee table, of course, would not stay at home alone.
The maid was in charge of the dinner. After dinner, Jenkins changed his clothes and waited for the arrival of the girls.
He stood in front of the living room window with the cat in his arms, looking at the extraordinarily gloomy sky and the street lights that had already started working. It seems that the rain will not stop in a short time, but this is a good sign. It is the season of spring plowing, and a few more rains will be good for the seeds buried in the soil.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, Hathaway and Britney arrived together. They rode in the same carriage, and they didn't know if they met by chance or agreed to come together.
When Jenkins stood at the window and saw the carriage approaching in the pouring rain, he turned and headed for the hall. But he didn't go out immediately. Instead, he locked the door under the rain eaves at the door to confirm that the carriage had stopped and opened the door, and then quickly rushed out with the umbrella in one hand and the cat in the other.
The short distance from the door to the fence gate. Wet Jenkins' pants. When he climbed into the car in a state of embarrassment, the chocolate with water on his hair was just in front of him and kept shaking his body, and the splashing rain water slapped Jenkins in the face.
The girls laughed, and it was the towel that Britney brought.
"I'm sorry that the weather still invites you to go out to watch a theater."
Jenkins sat down as he spoke, and instead of wiping himself with a towel, he wiped the cat first.
"It's okay, it's really boring on a rainy day, and I can't go anywhere. If you can invite us to the theater, we won't have to spend a lonely night at home boringly."
The blonde girl said pointedly, and then saw the red-haired girl's scrutinizing eyes.
Jenkins has already prepared the tickets. In fact, even if he doesn't buy tickets in advance in this weather, he doesn't have to worry about not being able to buy tickets.
Just as he guessed, at the entrance of the opera house, there were few carriages. After entering the opera house, even one-third of the hall was not full.
Tonight's play is the representative work of Silver Jasmine Opera Troupe - "The Lonely Traveler". If it weren't for the bad weather, the place would have been full of audience.
As before, Jenkins sat in the middle, the girls sat on the sides, and the cat was on his lap.
The bright lights were extinguished when the opera opened, leaving only the lights on the stage. The dim environment made Jenkins a little drowsy, but in order to maintain his good image, he restrained the urge to fall asleep.
The soft hand on the left suddenly grabbed Jenkins's hand. He turned his head and saw Hathaway's smiling eyes. Before he could do anything else, the right hand reached out and grabbed him, and Jenkins knew it was Britney without thinking.
