Chapter 99: Night Street Horror, in every sense (3)
"Hehe, that's it~ We're already there, let's go in quickly."
Megan took Brady's arm and led him into the passage that led directly underground.
Walking through the dark and damp passage, what appeared before Brady's eyes was a bustling underground street.
The prosperity was far beyond his imagination.
"Is this the night market? It's as bustling as a big city..."
Looking at the brightly lit streets, Brady couldn't help muttering.
He had only seen such a prosperous scene once before he entered school, when he accompanied his father on a night tour of the imperial capital.
But that time, his father Ulysses went to a red-light shop to find a woman, so he drove Brady, Mark, and Dutt back to the luxury hotel where they were staying.
Even compared with the night streets of the imperial capital at that time, the night streets that Megan brought him to were even more lively.
"Pfft, don't just stand there, let's go to the casino I mentioned earlier. If you don't have money, you can't have fun even if you want to, Brady."
Megan Si suggested after she chuckled behind her hand.
"Okay, okay, please take me there immediately."
Brady answered a little stunned.
This place must be very interesting. It can't compare to the countryside in my own territory.
And from what Megan said, it seems that the nobles of the imperial capital also come here to play privately. Maybe this place is more interesting than the imperial capital's never-sleeping streets.
Brady's heart was full of anticipation.

"Al~What are you doing?"
Emilia, who had just finished her shower and was still wrapped in a bathrobe, asked curiously.
She walked up behind Alfred on her wet feet, wrapped her arms around his neck and stuck her head out.
The rosy skin looked even more watery because of the moisture that had not yet dried, and there was also a pleasant faint fragrance floating on Emilia's body.
"A magic device. You are curious about whether there is any hidden space in that cave. I am also a little concerned, so I want to try some things."
Alfred put down the L-shaped tool in his hand and flicked Emilia's head lightly.
"Hurry up and change your clothes. Even though this is my room, it is still in the boys' dormitory. It's inappropriate for you to keep wearing this."
"Oh~Is it more comfortable to wear this way~Or are you worried that other people will see my naked body, Al, so you feel jealous~Don't worry, I won't show it to anyone except Al."
Emilia said, leaning over to Alfred's ear and blowing gently.
Alfred flicked her head hard again.
"Who did you learn this from?"
He asked somewhat dumbfoundedly.
"Tina, she said this can arouse a man's heart. Hehe, Al, are you a little moved?"
Emilia stuck out her tongue and said mischievously.
“Woooo ...
Alfred responded with a voice that was completely smooth.
"Woo, Al you idiot~! I bite."
Emilia said as she bit Alfred's neck gently.
She didn't use any force, it was more like she was scratching Alfred's skin with her sharp little fangs.
It's itchy and a little stinging, but surprisingly comfortable.
"Who called you again? It couldn't be Tina, could it?"
"Yes, mother. How about it? Al, you should be moved by me this time, right?"
"Not at all~ Really, what on earth did you learn before, girl? Hurry up and put on your clothes, be careful..."
Seeing Alfred raise his hand, Emilia retracted her head obediently.
"I know, Al, you idiot."
After Emilia changed her clothes, she lay on the bed with her hands supporting her head, swinging her feet casually, and watched Alfred tinkering at the table.
"Al, the magic device you are going to make is used to detect caves. I didn't expect you could make such a thing. You are really amazing."
"Actually, I didn't invent it. I'm just copying what others have said. Don't get too excited. Maybe I won't be able to make anything in the end, and what I make will just be a piece of scrap metal."
Alfred took out his glasses from the side and injected magic power into the tool used to perform the ritual.
A subtle glow emanates from the tip of the tool.
He began to carve grooves into the metal sheet with a tool.
"Hehe, Al, you must be too modest. If it were Al, there would definitely be no problem."
Emilia said with a cute smile.
"I'm glad you said that, even if it's just a polite remark. But... this time it was a success."
Alfred activated the small fan on the table to blow away the excess debris from the metal plate.
After briefly observing the edge of the board and finding no obvious problems, he began to pack up his tools.
"That's all for today~"
"Well, what else? Let's go to bed today. I have to go to class tomorrow morning. There's no rush to explore the maze anyway, so it's okay to take my time making the magic device."
"That's right~"
Emilia responded cheerfully, turning over and patting the bed.
"what do you mean."
"Al is so annoying~ Do I need to make it clear? I get shy too~"
Emilia held her blushing cheeks and complained in a spoiled tone.
"You damn girl, you've become more and more rude lately."
Alfred pressed his head with his hand and felt a slight headache.
"Do I need to be polite with Al~?"
"Be careful or I'll kick you off the bed."
"Then I'll crawl back here while you're asleep, Al."
"If you do that, I'm sure you'll wake me up in the middle of the night, so it's best not to."
"Hehe, then Al, get on the bed quickly!"
Emilia patted the bed again and said happily.
"Let me tell you in advance, go to sleep and don't do anything weird to me."
"Don't worry, I definitely won't~"
?◇?◇?◇?◇?
Megan took the arm of an excited Brady as they strolled down the night streets.
The two of them walked around the neighborhood, as if Megan deliberately wanted Brady to know clearly what kind of shops were on this street.
Brady was very grateful for her thoughtful gesture.
After the two of them strolled around for a while, Megan took Brady into an underground casino not far from the entrance, which looked very lively from the outside.
Inside the casino, a large number of nobles in gorgeous costumes were holding their betting vouchers, cheering passionately for the puppets fighting each other on the ring.
Just looking at this scene made Brady feel his blood boiling, and he couldn't suppress the urge to get involved.
But just like Megans said, although students from Illya and Alia Academy can still be vaguely seen, the majority of people here are still nobles from the imperial capital.
