Chapter 2384: Chapter 252

Chapter 252

This month, Davis had been too busy to even worry about anything else .

After he bought the residence, he picked a room and started to learn alchemy from the First Layer .

Since he was well versed in the Alchemy from the Second Layer, it only took a month to digest the contents of the First Layer .

This helped him become proficient until up to Peak-Level Earth Grade Alchemy, even when compared to the ones in the First Layer since he possessed the knowledge of the alchemists of the Second Layer as well .

But two weeks ago, he did face an assassination attempt which he later found out that it was executed by the Roxley Family .

He did expect this to happen and wasn't surprised and even quickly put an end to it, saving Natalya in the process .

Honestly, he was engrossed with learning and his reactions were late . So he thought that she would be dead by the time he finished killing the 2 assassins who came to kill him first, but it wasn't like that to his surprise which ultimately ended up in him saving her .

He guessed that the assassin who went to kill her surprisingly had other thoughts other than instantly executing the target .

'I wonder what's with her? Sneakily glancing at me all the time . . . ' Throwing the incident in the back of his mind, Davis thought as he rubbed his chin .

Looking back, all she did was deliver him spirit juices during rest time which didn't even last for a minute every day and glance at him curiously from time to time .

Other than this, from using his Soul Sense, he noticed her doing menial jobs like cleaning the whole residence every morning, sitting in front of a water pond that's filled with fishes, sighing from time to time while glancing at the sunset .

All this caused him to feel that she was at loss with what had happened to her before she met with him .

'Well, without her information, I wouldn't have gained this residence at all . . . ' Wryly laughing, he thought of doing something to help her come back to her senses .

He was fortunate that he saw that little hesitant gesture of hers at that time, otherwise, he would've been still staying in one of the inn's right now, wasting his spirit stones every day .

If he had spent 100 Low-Level Spirit Stones daily to rent the room of Arashi's Luxurious Inn for protection and other purposes, he would have incurred a cost of around 3,000 Low-Level Spirit Stones in a month, which was very less compared to the 25,000 Low-Level Spirit Stones which he had used to purchase this residence .

But what if he had to stay for a year in Arashi's Luxurious Inn? Wouldn't he incur a cost of 36,000 Low-Level Spirit Stones? Buying a residence would be more cost-efficient and cost-saving in the long run .

Besides that, there were many reasons to purchase the residence .

First, as an alchemist, he would make a name for himself in this Xuan Capital and to that, if he stayed in a room of an Inn, that would be disreputable to his name .

Second, if he was invited by a certain power to stay at their residence, he would be indebted to them, which he didn't want .

Third, since this residence is his, he could freely make changes to his needs and throw out any people who came to visit him out of fake courtesy or threat .

There was another reason as well, but that wasn't in his priority of reasons because it was related to Natalya's mental health, not his .

So far, the only disadvantage he got was inevitably offending the Roxley Family, but he realized that it was not a problem .

Mostly because of the quality of the assassins they sent against him .

He figured that it might've been the low-level figures in the Roxley Family that might've wanted the residence .

If not, they would've sent powerful enemies against him the first time, leaving him no chance to live .

Now that it failed, he figured that they would stop sending assassins against him or employ even more powerful experts, which depends if they valued this place a lot .

He thought that they would most likely go for the former considering that this place doesn't have much value in the eyes upper echelon of the Roxley Family .

Just when he was about to sleep, his Soul Sense which covered the whole residence since the incident, suddenly reacted, alarming his senses .

In his view, he saw a pigeon sized Magical Beast fly through the outer courtyard swiftly before coming to a stop in front of his residence .

The magical beast looked left and right before staying still like it was waiting for someone .

Davis noticed that and saw a little piece of letter tied to its leg . He swiftly arrived in front of it and took the piece of letter from its leg, reading it .

A smile inevitably formed upon his face as he let the bird-like magical beast fly away .

Surprisingly, the message was from Tina Roxley indicating that she took care of the problem that originated from her family .

She didn't apologize nor did she send any kind of compensation but just wrote a few lines indicating that she took care of the problem .

Davis didn't know why but this woman gave off a good impression as if she was looking out for him but at the same time, he also got the feeling that she was keeping tabs on him .

He silently chuckled and was not surprised by her family's intelligence network as they did manage to find him in a small residence .

After all, he already gave his nickname to her, which was Scythe .

'Why is she helping me? Did she send this letter make me owe her one?'

Thoughts swirled around his head . He couldn't figure out what this woman was thinking, 'Maybe, the Roxley Family isn't full of evil people . . . '

Thinking about figuring out one's thoughts, his focus returned to Natalya .

'I've left her to her own devices for a month, and if this keeps up, she will become reliant on me or someone else . ' Davis contemplated and decided to give her some advice for his sake so that she won't bother him when it's time to leave .

Getting off the bed, he went to her room which was located far away from his room in terms of walking distance .

The residence housed about 34 quarters which had many rooms that were usable by 34 families, each consisting of parents and children .

Other than that, there were also a large number of small rooms used for other purposes .
