Illimitable Until Death

Chapter 510: Late At Night

“Kacha…”

With a clear sound of the door opening, within the luxurious mansion, the door to one of the rooms swung open, welcoming its temporary guest.

This was a guest room.

Of course, in such a lavish estate, one could imagine the level of luxury in the guest rooms.

The room was extremely spacious, comparable to a hall, furnished with the highest-grade luxury items.

The ground was covered in plush red carpets, and even the bed was large enough to accommodate four or five people, extravagantly adorned to the extreme.

The person who opened the door to this room was Ram.

After opening the door, Ram welcomed Fang Li inside and spoke in a straightforward manner.

“This is your room. Please rest here for the night.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Li, who had been casually surveying the surroundings behind Ram, withdrew his gaze and nonchalantly nodded, walking into the room.

At this point, it was already late at night.

At such a time, receiving guests was clearly inappropriate.

Moreover, having spent the entire day bustling around the Royal Capital, it was logical to rest for the night after entering the mansion with Emilia.

Therefore, Ram suggested meeting with the Master of the mansion tomorrow and resting for the night.

Emilia felt somewhat uneasy about this.

It wasn’t that she disagreed with Ram’s suggestion, but as the one who had invited Fang Li to the mansion, Emilia still wanted to express her gratitude to Fang Li for the events of the daytime.

However, it was indeed late, and Fang Li didn’t want to dwell on Elsa’s matter, so he agreed with Ram’s suggestion with a somewhat firm attitude.

Thus, reluctantly, Emilia left and, under Rem’s care, returned to her own room.

And Ram was left to take care of Fang Li.

After all, although the mansion was large and spacious, there were only the twin siblings Rem and Ram as servants.

Since Rem was with Emilia, Ram naturally had to take care of Fang Li.

“Tomorrow morning, Ram will report to Lord Roswaal and arrange a meeting. Please rest well, guest.”

Ram said to Fang Li in a manner that was neither impolite nor overly courteous, maintaining a balanced attitude.

However, the next moment, Ram lifted her gaze to look at Fang Li and said with an unchanged tone.

“Although there are no clearly restricted areas in the mansion, the lights will be turned off soon. Unless there’s something special, please rest in this room and refrain from wandering around the mansion at night.”

Leaving these words behind, Ram exited the room, extended her hand, and closed the door.

Left alone, Fang Li looked at the tightly closed door with a slight smirk.

“Is this a warning?”

If it was a warning, it meant two things.

Either there was something unsavory happening in the mansion.

Or Fang Li had already been designated as a character requiring caution.

Or perhaps, both.

“I really am unwelcome…”

At least, the twin sisters Rem and Ram absolutely did not welcome Fang Li.

There was no other reason than the fact that both of them had sensed Fang Li’s nature as the Murdering Demon and classified Fang Li as the most dangerous character.

“Even Reinhard only vaguely sensed that I am not an ordinary person without any means to defend myself, but these twin sisters easily discovered my true nature?”

Fang Li muttered.

“They truly are…”

The words that followed, Fang Li did not speak.

However, such treatment did not come as a surprise to Fang Li.

“Come to think of it, this is, after all, the residence of one of the characters vying for the throne. Typically, a sudden visit from a stranger without any reason would arouse suspicion, being suspected as a spy or an assassin, right?”

Fang Li walked slowly to the window, gazing at the courtyard bathed in the night’s darkness outside, a pensive gleam flashing in his dark-colored eyes.

“And indeed, this mansion does have some secrets.”

In his mind appeared the existence of “That,” piquing Fang Li’s interest.

“Perhaps it may not be of any use to me, but I am curious nonetheless.”

Having said that, Fang Li smiled faintly and turned directly.

In the instant he turned around, Fang Li’s figure seemed to melt into the shadows, completely disappearing from view.

The degree of stealth was even greater than with Elsa before.

And since Fang Li suddenly vanished into stealth, it meant one thing.

He disregarded Ram’s warning.

…

In the deserted corridor, Fang Li walked slowly, as if taking a leisurely stroll, advancing while continuously observing the surroundings.

What lay before him was a wide corridor with walls and floors of uniform color, seemingly endless, stretching ahead.

An unsettling silence pervaded the surroundings, making it impossible to sense even the slightest aura of human habitation, more akin to a long-abandoned haunted Western-style mansion.

On both sides of the walls hung peculiarly styled masterpieces, arranged side by side in the dimly lit corridor, as if something could emerge from them at any moment.

“Such a large mansion, yet only a few people live here. It’s truly astonishing.”

That was Fang Li’s only thought.

Moreover, Fang Li had also suppressed his aura.

His footsteps fell on the ground without making a sound.

If someone suddenly saw Fang Li here, they would likely think that a ghost was floating through the corridor.

In fact, even if someone mistook Fang Li for a ghost, it wouldn’t be surprising.

Because, in Fang Li’s eyes, the Eyes of Death Perception, capable of killing all things, shone with an icy-blue rainbow in the dark corridor.

The world before his eyes turned into a patchwork of ruins.

Graffiti-like cracks spread all over the walls, floor, and ceiling, giving the unsettling feeling that a slight exertion could shatter them, causing one to fall into a bottomless abyss of terror.

In this world, Fang Li could only do one thing.

That was to kill things.

But this time, Fang Li used the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception not to kill, but to observe a space that didn’t exist to the naked eye.

“If it’s me right now…”

Can I see it?

Can I see the Death Line of that non-existent space?

*Biri…*

With a sensation like an electric shock, Fang Li finally discovered it.

Above a door, a crack-like Death Line suddenly appeared.

Seeing this, Fang Li smiled suddenly.

“Is it here?”

With a confident tone, Fang Li approached and pushed open the door.

Almost at the same time, a voice sounded.

“To intrude into a lady’s room in the dead of night, now that’s quite an interesting hobby you have there…”

…
