The Invincible Mercenary King

Chapter 282

Ceci looked at her chest, then glared at Haylan.

Last night, when she encountered the evil spirit with Mia, she tried to utilize the amulet she had obtained from the church to evict it.

Unfortunately, it was completely useless.

That evil spirit, which was incomparably ferocious, destroyed those protective crystals, healing stones, and so on.

At the critical moment, it was the protective gem that Haylan had given to Mia that worked. It saved their lives and even injured that spirit, scaring it away.

Therefore, after the successful escape, the first thing Ceci wanted to do was to meet Haylan, hoping to ask him for a protective gem.

She did not expect him to look at her chest and bring up a “bad omen” during their first meeting.

She was especially disgusted by such a lecher.

“Don’t I show enough respect?”

Haylan, meanwhile, did not know that she had such thoughts. He said with a serious expression, “Miss Lawson, I’m telling you seriously that you are emitting an evil aura from your chest and there’s a murderous. aura lingering between your eyebrows!

“It’s a bad omen, a very bad omen.

“I reckon that there’s a very fierce evil spirit pestering you. Ordinary people can’t subdue it at all.”

Ceci’s expression turned sullen as she glared at him. “Omen? You lecher, how dare you bring up bad omens?”

When Mia heard their conversation, she was first shocked, then she immediately understood what had happened and burst out laughing.

The other two immediately looked at her in confusion.

Mia grinned and explained, “Ceci, you’ve misunderstood. The bad omen he mentioned is indeed extremely dangerous. That is why he looked at your chest. He didn’t mean to be a lecher.”

“A lecher?” Haylan frowned.

He thought about it and immediately understood.
