Everyone in the tavern had strange expressions on their faces after hearing Anna’s words.

Especially Seena, Hankley, and Tannas; the three of them looked as if their faces had turned as black as charcoal.

“So, we spent all night working hard and killed an unrelated Legendary powerhouse??!”

Upon hearing such devastating news, Seena’s somewhat cool voice inevitably became a bit sharp.

“No, it’s still too early to make that determination now.” Anna gently shook her head.

“There are rumors in the Federation’s black market that the remnants of the Justice Party are secretly trying to recruit allies everywhere…”

“Perhaps, the old aristocracy is one of the allies they are trying to recruit.”

“Otherwise, why would a Legendary member of the Justice Party run to the old aristocracy’s district in the middle of the night?”

“That is the most reasonable explanation.”

Anna’s tone was somewhat nonchalant.

As a bartender of the Illusionary Night’s Dream tavern, deducing the truth from various basic pieces of information is a bartender’s fundamental skill.

A “bartender of the Illusionary Night’s Dream tavern” doesn’t necessarily have to be strong, but they must be smart…

Loren, who was focused on tasting the drink in his hand, subconsciously furrowed his brows upon hearing Anna’s deduction and silently muttered in his heart:

The notorious Justice Party, how did they get together with those old aristocracy guys…

Are the Federation’s conspirators starting to cooperate with each other now? Interesting.

Right!!

Thinking of this, Loren suddenly remembered he still had a special spatial ring in his embrace.

That Councilor Osman’s spatial ring!

Because Loren’s activities had been quite frequent over the last two months, and Raven also always had things to do, such as high-intensity “study sessions.”

This spatial ring had never been cracked and was still in a sealed state.

Loren silently took out Councilor Osman’s spatial ring from his embrace, placed it on the bar counter, and asked softly:

“Miss Anna, this is a spatial ring from a high-ranking Justice Party member. Do you have a way to quickly unseal it?”

Instantly, the air in the tavern fell completely silent!

Everyone present looked at Loren with surprised, novel eyes.

You’ve killed a high-ranking Justice Party member too???

Finally, Anna was the first to react!

“That Councilor Osman’s spatial ring?” Anna’s tone held a note of inquiry.

“Mhm.” Loren nodded calmly.

Upon hearing Loren’s confirmation, Anna excitedly picked up the spatial ring from the bar counter and observed it very carefully for a while.

A good while later.

She finally put down the spatial ring in her palm and shook her head.

She placed the spatial ring back on the bar counter and returned it to Loren.

“Sorry, Mr. Destiny, the encryption method on this spatial ring is quite advanced.”

“To crack it quickly, you would need a spatial ability user present, or a Mage proficient in the ways of space.”

“Unfortunately, no one present has that ability.”

Hearing Anna’s explanation, Loren raised an eyebrow.

“Need a spatial-type ability user, huh…”

Clearly, Loren remembered a “Old Acquaintance” he had hurt not long ago…

After wrestling with it for two seconds.

Loren, with a perfectly calm face, took out his portable computer from his embrace and silently recalled that Old Acquaintance’s contact information.

After recalling the other party’s contact details, he quickly typed that string of numbers on the portable computer’s keyboard…

The familiar dial tone sounded, and the call was soon connected.

“Hey, Daisy…” Loren’s voice was still as flat and uneventful as ever.

Two minutes later.

A spatial rift tore open in front of Loren.

Daisy Wendy Benjamin, whose figure had become somewhat fuller, stepped out from this spatial rift.

After appearing, Daisy Wendy first turned her head to survey the tavern’s environment.

Then, her gaze began to sweep over the people in the tavern.

It’s worth mentioning.

The clearly female Miss Anna and Mage Seena did not attract her visual attention at all!

Instead, when her gaze swept over the somewhat dumbfounded Cook P. Jones, the bare-chested Hankley, and the amiable-looking Tannas,

Daisy Wendy’s gaze paused very noticeably for a moment!

Then, the corner of her mouth twitched imperceptibly.

That guy Loren likes this kind of stuff??? Making me doubt my own charm!!

Then, Daisy Wendy silently straightened her chest, which had clearly grown a size larger, giving herself a tiny bit of confidence.

This was something she had specifically sought out a female Psychic with a special ability to enhance after being emotionally devastated by Loren.

An ability that could precisely control body hormones and fat was considered completely natural with zero additives.

To get an appointment with that renowned beautician, it cost Daisy Wendy tens of thousands of Spirit Stones…

Only after deliberately puffing out her chest did she silently turn her gaze to Loren and ask with a hint of resentment:

“What do you want? Mr. Fugitive, I’m still at work, you know?”

The hidden delight in her tone and her little actions were only noticed by the relatively more perceptive Anna among those present.

Anna, standing behind the bar counter, instantly had a playful look in her eyes.

The first heir of the Benjamin family actually likes the ice-cold Mr. Destiny?!

What a juicy piece of gossip!!

I’m liking this bartender job more and more…

Loren, sitting on the chair in front of the bar counter, silently put down the wine glass in his hand.

Facing Daisy Wendy’s resentment, he silently pretended not to hear it and asked with apparent calmness:

“Daisy, how much would it cost to hire you to crack a spatial ring?”

Hearing this, Daisy Wendy, who had rushed over in a hurry, silently facepalmed and rubbed her temples, which weren’t actually hurting.

Don’t get angry, don’t get angry… you chose this, you chose this…

“You heartless jerk! You called me just for this?!” A resentful and indignant voice rang out.

Clearly, Daisy Wendy ultimately couldn’t hold back.

Loren coughed dryly with a composed expression, pretending to answer very seriously:

“Well… this is Councilor Osman’s spatial ring. It contains our shared spoils of war.”

It must be said, Loren can be quite clever sometimes.

In a flash of inspiration, he thought of an almost perfect answer!

“Master, I’m feeling a bit of contempt for you…”

Unfortunately, Raven’s sarcasm is always so punctual.

“Shut up, stupid bird, we’re handling serious business here!”

When facing Raven, Loren’s tone wasn’t so calm.

The pain of being exposed by a bird right to your face is perhaps something only Loren can understand…

At this moment, everyone in the tavern except Anna also understood the atmosphere of the situation.

The other four people and one dog all stopped breathing in perfect unison.

While pretending not to look at Loren and Daisy Wendy anymore, they quietly pricked up their ears…

Holy cow?! The ice-cold big shot and his lover are having a lovers’ quarrel??

As for Anna inside the bar counter, she silently found a chair to sit on, quietly took a good bottle of wine from the liquor cabinet behind her, and poured herself a glass…

This is why I love being a bartender~

When you’re lucky, you can even witness the various love-hate dramas of big shots~

What a perfect day~ A toast to my choice!
