Simple Life of Killing Demons

Lin Xiang turned his head and saw a handsome man with blond hair walking towards him, clapping his hands.

The boy’s eyebrows were as thick as arrows. His light blue eyes emitted a scorching glow, and his straight, good-looking figure, together with his clear profile looked like Reidy’s.

“Brother, why are you here?” Reidy came over and shouted at the guy.

“Girl, you’ve disappeared for two months. You’ve no idea how desperate I and father have been. Now that you’re back, I was worried that you’d escape again if I don’t show up in time.” Remi smiled.

“I’ve only been away for a month…” Reidy thought that her brother had exaggerated.

“Silly girl, have you forgotten time when you have a master? You have been away for 65 days.”

“It hasn’t been that long.”

“Actually, the time of the Demon Realm is twice as long as that of the human’s world. That is, Reidy did stay in the human’s world for one month, and that’s two months in the Demon Realm.”

“Is there even such a thing? Well, I didn’t know about it, since I’d never been to the human’s world.” Remi didn’t think that Lin Xiang would lie to him. He nodded and indicated that he’d understood. Then, he said to Reidy, “you didn’t even change a day to escape, and chose to do so before your birthday. We were going to give you a birthday surprise, you know?”

“Um…” Reidy didn’t expect that they were going to give her a surprise…she looked at Lin Xiang, as if she’s saying that there’s no regret nonetheless.

“After you left, your father has been looking for you every day. After searching for more than a month, he had already been to all the cities, but he still couldn’t find you. He thought that his baby daughter had an accident and he was also exhausted from the search. Now, he’s resting in Tudor City. After hearing that you’re back, he wanted to go see you immediately even before his total recovery. Luckily, I managed to stop him.”

“Brother, I’m sorry…” Reidy felt a bit sad after knowing that his father Reggie had been so nervous about her.

“It’s nothing, it’s all over now. What’s your name?” Remi touched Reidy’s head and asked Lin Xiang. As soon as he teleported over and rushed home, he saw a large group of spirits gathering in front of his house, squeezing into the crowd. He also found that Taroma, the eldest son of the Mist family, was challenging a human being. Taroma was in love with his sister, and Remi already knew about it when Taroma was helping him looking for Reidy. But what about this human being? His sister seemed to be on the side of this human, and Remi wanted to find the reason among the crowd of the spirits.

Taroma was trying to test Lin Xiang’s ability to distinguish. He walked into the mist with a wood spirit designated by Lin Xiang and turned into a wood spirit himself. At that time, Remi could not tell the difference. He looked at Lin Xiang and found that he could tell the difference by just one glance. If Lin Xiang didn’t keep looking at the spirit on the right side, Remi would think that the left one was fake, judging by their conversation. All in all, the one on the left was the first one to say, “you really look like me!” And people would easily think that he just wanted to misguide the others.

Taroma could very well master the look, figure, style and voice of the other spirit, yet Lin Xiang could tell their difference in just one look. This proved that this human being wasn’t a simple one.

If Remi knew that it’s not because of Lin Xiang’s super power but the fact that no one had noticed the loophole of Taroma’s magic, what would he think then?

“My name is Lin Xiang. You are Reidy’s brother, right?” Lin Xiang stretched out his hand.

“Yes, my name is Reiworth Remi.” Remi also stretched out his hand and shook Lin Xiang’s. The moment he did so, he felt himself using strength with his palm and Lin Xiang was doing the same. Every time he added some strength, Lin Xiang followed. This guy was not simple at all.

“Brother Remi, I really like Reidy, can I…” Taroma finally spoke, as he hoped for Remi to help him.

“I heard about your deal. Whoever won would get Reidy, so, Reidy, are you regretting now?” Remi frowned.

“Right. I really don’t like your type.” Reidy said so.

“I…” Taroma blushed after Remi and Reidy said so. He answered with embarrassment, “I understand now.” Then he looked at Lin Xiang in a serious manner, “if I find out that you aren’t nice to Reidy, I will never forgive you.”

“Well, I won’t. You are willing to keep your promise, so I respect you. What’s your name?” Lin Xiang still didn’t know his name.

“Delan Taroma, from the Delan family.” Taroma stretched out his hand like Lin Xiang just now.

Lin Xiang smiled and shook hands with him, “I’ll introduce myself again, my name is Lin Xiang.” Then, he let go of his hand.

“By the way, who are the two girls next to you?” Remi had been curious about these two humanoid spirits. How come he’d never met them before?
