"You..." Fang Li couldn't help but be stunned, subconsciously reaching for his waist.
There, was the holster originally meant to hold the activation body for receiving Bo Xie.
However, now, the holster was empty, with nothing left inside.
"Hehe."
On the rooftop, a cute girl lifted the pure white activation body in her hand, looking smug as she said, "When it comes to stealing, how could you possibly compare to me?"
"...Oh." Fang Li narrowed his eyes and sighed, "So what? Do you think taking that means I'm powerless?"
Although the girl's speed was surprising, in the end, she still couldn't compare to Fang Li. Even if she wanted to escape, she couldn't escape Fang Li's grasp.
As for strength, the girl was far inferior to Fang Li.
If Fang Li wanted to reclaim Bo Xie, it wouldn't be easy, but there was no reason for failure either.
Therefore, Fang Li wasn't in a hurry.
However, the girl seemed to see through Fang Li's thoughts and lightly snorted.
"Judging by your strange appearance, you're probably not a resident of the Royal Capital but someone from outside, right?"
The girl tightened her youthful charming face and said, "Even if you're stronger than me, it's impossible for you to know the terrain here better than I do. If I want to escape, it's impossible for you to catch me."
"Is that so?" Fang Li raised a brow and said with a faint smile, "Then why don't we compare?"
"Who has time to compare such boring things with you?" The girl flashed a pair of small tiger teeth, like a threatening kitten, and said to Fang Li, "Be sensible and hand over that insignia. It's not yours anyway."
"Similarly, I'll return it to you intact." Fang Li shrugged and said, "It's not yours either."
"Um..." The girl immediately fell silent.
Seeing this, Fang Li was about to rely on his exceptional speed to rush over and snatch back Bo Xie, but he was interrupted.
"I say..." Natsuki Subaru weakly raised his hand and said, "Shouldn't you both stop ignoring me now?"
However, this remark immediately received the exact same response from Fang Li and the girl.
"This is none of your business, go away."
Hearing this, Natsuki Subaru fell silent.
No, it should be said that he lowered his voice, muttering with resentment.
"Who is the main character after all? Who is the main character? Who is the main character?"
Alas, since coming to this Another World, almost none of the imagined glory has fallen on Natsuki Subaru's shoulders. Even the beautiful girl he finally encountered is flirting with Fang Li. Natsuki Subaru really feels unworthy of being part of the great group of transmigrators.
Of course, in the eyes of Fang Li and the girl, who seemed to be flirting, there was no such leisurely sentiment.
Now, Fang Li just wants to reclaim his Bo Xie.
And the girl on the other side wants the same, only wishing to reclaim her insignia.
However, in this incident, it's not solely Fang Li and the girl who are involved.
The next moment, the third-party finally appears.
"Finally found you."
It was a very pleasant voice.
The voice seemed to carry a hint of cold air, making everyone present feel a slight drop in the surrounding temperature, feeling a sense of relief both physically and mentally.
Immediately, everyone simultaneously turned their heads to look at the source of the voice.
In that instant, it was as if the entire alley suddenly became brighter.
The reason? Simply because at the entrance of the alley stood that girl.
As they looked at the girl, Fang Li's eyes flickered slightly, silent.
Looking at the girl, the thief girl on the roof showed a shocked expression.
Watching the girl, Natsuki Subaru's eyes widened as he stared blankly at the girl.
As they watched the girl, the reactions of everyone present varied, but it couldn't be denied that they were all momentarily captivated.
She was a girl with waist-length silver hair. Her facial features seemed sharp, but they were actually very soft, combining beauty, innocence, nobility, and purity, exuding an incredible aura.
She was dressed in white attire, with no extravagant decorations, yet it exuded a sense of luxury. Coupled with her otherworldly beauty, anyone who saw her at first glance would mistake her for a legendary spirit.
Such a girl appearing in a dark and damp alley was completely inappropriate.
However, she still walked in with a dignified attitude.
"Although I don't know what's going on right now, could you please let me deal with my own matters first?"
This statement seemed domineering, but in fact, there was not a trace of coercion inside, just a straightforward request.
"Please, this is really important."
With these words, the silver-haired girl turned her gaze to the thief girl on the roof, her purple eyes this time emitting a sharp feeling. With an uncompromising attitude, she said such a line to the thief girl.
"Alright, please return my insignia to me."
Upon hearing this, all three people present reacted.
More precisely, their gazes focused on the location of the insignia.
That is, in Fang Li's palm.
The silver-haired girl also saw it, her purple eyes slightly brightening, and she looked straight at Fang Li, pleading, "Could you please return it to me?"
Before Fang Li could react, the thief girl on the roof became excited.
"No way!" The thief girl glared at Fang Li and shouted, "That's something I was planning to sell for a lot of money. You're not allowed to return it!"
"It was mine to begin with." The silver-haired girl refused to back down. "It was only stolen by you."
It seemed that the owner of the insignia was none other than the girl who resembled a holy spirit before them.
"Since I stole it, there's even less reason to return it!" The thief girl spoke in what seemed like a reasonable but actually somewhat unreasonable manner towards Fang Li.
"Listen, if you want your thing back, then come to the slums with that insignia and exchange it with me before today is over!"
"My name is Felt, don't forget it!"
Leaving these words behind, the girl named Felt turned around and disappeared at the other end of the roof.
"Wait..." Fang Li was about to chase after her, but he was forced to stop.
"Chī——!"
With a faint sound of breaking space, a crystal-clear ice pillar suddenly tore through the air and violently shot toward him.
"Peng——!"
The ice pillar heavily landed in front of Fang Li, shattering the ground with a glass-like broken sound, leaving a pit.
The silver-haired girl aimed her palm at Fang Li.
Her gaze never left the insignia from beginning to end.
