Chapter 249: Turn the Table (1)
It rained that day.
“Ha, how the heck does it rain inside the Tower?” the Viper grumbled as he walked down the dark street. A few sparse streetlights were standing at irregular intervals, as if they were bean sprouts planted by an elementary school student before getting bored. Some of them were even destroyed.
The Viper squinted his single eye as he glanced at the broken streetlights. “Fuuuuck. The Tower did yet another fucking marvelous job, didn’t they?”

The voice of the man who could be considered the leader of those maniacs called out from behind him. The Viper didn’t want to look back, but considering that head lunatic’s social status, he had no other options.
He sighed. “What?”
“Ah, it is you!”
When he turned back, the smile the Inquisitor flashed made it seem as if a golden light fell on him. The kid who looked like a fairy stood in the middle of the trashy street. At first glance, it seemed that he had gone through many hardships throughout his life. Nevertheless, his smile was very pure. His dainty, fresh blond hair added more life-like charm to his smile.
“Inquisitor, it’s raining, so why are you here?”
