"You are not going out anymore?" Li Wei asked with a stunned look after hearing Irene.
However, she shook her head.
"I said I can't go out alone, or they will definitely suspect and will use so special ans to detect my identity. But if I am with soone, they will only ask so questions," she replied, looking at Li Wei with a thoughtful gaze.
"If you are thinking about tagging along, then you can forget about this," Li Wei replied instantly, making Irene pout.
"Mhm, then do you want to stay in this dress for the whole week?" Irene muttered with a pitiful expression.
However, Li Wei didn't care about this and focused on her last words.
"Priestess Irene, aren't you staying here for a few days? Why is it a week now?" he asked, staring at her sharply.
"Hehe, Abyss leader, can't I have fun for a week? Also, don't change the topic; do you really want to stay in the sa clothes for a week?" Irene replied, putting on a pitiful face again and turned towards the girls.
"Li Xin, look, your brother is a pervert; he wants to stay in the sa clothes," she complained, shooting a glare at him, making him sigh.
'What a troubleso girl, no wonder there is a whole Legion to keep an eye on her.' Li Wei thought, watching her complaining like a kid.
While Li Xin and others looked at her with an understanding expression.
For any girl, wearing the sa dress for a week was no different from torture, because of this they decided to help her.
"Brother, go out with Miss Irene, as you are free today, and also you are the most suitable person for this job," Li Xin suggested suddenly, making Li Wei feel bitter.
"Yes, brother Li, with your level, it won't be a problem to escape with Miss Irene if Miss Lyla and her companions found her." Alice too agreed with Li Xin, explaining in detail.
If they go along with her, they wouldn't be able to escape and might fall into so trouble of questioning and such.
Not to ntion Li Wei wouldn't let them go, as he already knew about it, so they could only request him to go.
"You guys..." Li Wei beca speechless at their suggestion, but he couldn't reject as Li Xin was staring at him continuously, indicating a tragedy will befall on him if he didn't tag along with Irene.
'Ugh, looks like I dug my grave,' he thought, sighing inwardly, and glanced at Irene whose eyes were beaming like stars, making him unwilling to tag along with her.
But there was no choice here; he would rather get tortured by big kid Irene than making Li Xin upset.
"Okay, I will tag along with her," he agreed with a face full of unwilling expression.
But no one cared about it.
"Priestess Irene, let's go; it's already noon, and we have to co back before its dark," Li Wei suggested with no other choice.
"Okay, I will follow you then," Irene nodded, beaming happily and turned towards Li Xin.
"Li Xin, thanks for the help; you saved from a big problem," she replied with a sincere expression, and she was serious about it.
After all, her future plans of running away will depend on the things she was about to buy.
Hearing her thanks, Li Xin nodded at her and turned towards Li Wei.
"Brother, you should do a better job and don't leave her alone," she reminded him with a strict expression.
"Yes, yes, as my little sister says," Li Wei replied with a nod and glanced at Irene with a puzzled look.
"Priestess Irene, aren't you going to put on a disguise?" he asked, as she was just wearing a casual dress she stole from sowhere and didn't change her face.
In response, Irene smiled mysteriously.
"You don't need to worry about this; my appearance is already changed by a secret artifact I possess. It's just I am controlling its effects on you, because of that you can see my original appearance," she explained with a proud look.
"Okay, then we should go now, XinXin, YinYin, and you all, I will be back soon, as long as I don't get caught," he announced with a pitiful expression, hoping soone will help him.
"Brother Li, stop putting such a face; also, here is the list of things you need to buy for and others," Lily muttered with a pout as she handed the list filled with all kinds of snack orders.
She too wanted to go out, but knowing she might drag them in a ti of escape, she decided to let go.
'Ugh, I wonder when he will transfer XP into ,' she thought with a depressed look, wondering when he will be doing it again.
While Li Wei was shocked and speechless after reading the list because he filled the shelves for snacks a few days ago and they already finished it.
If this continues, his stockpile of snacks will be consud soon.
'Looks like I have to buy again in large amounts; I hope the shop owner wouldn't curse ,' he muttered in his mind and placed the list inside the item box.
"I will take my leave then," he inford everyone and headed out with Irene, who walked alongside.
While Li Xin and others watched their fading backs with a sigh of relief.
"Sister Li, you did a great job; now we can focus on completing the class quests," Alice praised her, giving a thumbs up.
"Then let's go and focus on it; they will co back before dark, so we don't have much ti," Li Xin replied with a smile and proceeded towards the training room with everyone.
Lily and Li Yin also followed them, but they were only going to laze around as they don't have any class quests.
...
Just as they started fulfilling the conditions of class quests, Li Wei brought Irene to a silent alley, making her puzzled.
"Abyss leader, why did you bring here? Are you planning to do bad things with ?" Irene asked, putting a fearful face and taking a few steps back.
"Are you an idiot? I ca here to put on a disguise; after all, I don't want to get known as a guy who was running away with the priestess," Li Wei replied and was about to activate his disguise skill when Irene stopped him.
"You don't need to do that; my artifact can also hide your appearances," Irene replied and touched his forehead with her slim finger.
In that instant, Li Wei beca surrounded by a white glow, and his appearance changed to a normal boy from this world.
"Hmm, this looks great, especially with your casual clothes," Irene nodded with satisfaction and snapped her fingers, making his real appearance only visible to her.
"Abyss Leader, now you don't need to worry about your identity getting exposed," she stated, folding her hands with a prideful face.
"Then I thank Priestess Irene for help," Li Wei replied politely, feeling curious about her artifact but didn't ask anything as she said it was a secret one.
"Abyss Leader, stop calling priestess, or you will expose my identity; just call Irene, while I will call you Brother Wei," Irene suggested with a thoughtful expression.
"As you wish, Irene," Li Wei replied with a nod. He did feel weird for getting called in such an intimate way, but he didn't care much.
"Let's go; we should visit a clothing store that is nearby," he suggested, hurrying her as he wanted to be done with this as soon as possible.
"Okay, Brother Wei, I will follow you then," Irene nodded happily, walking alongside him and looking at his face with curiosity.
"Irene, why are looking at my face like that? Is there sothing wrong?" Li Wei asked after sensing her long gaze.
"Brother Wei, there is nothing wrong; it's just I am curious about you," Irene replied with a smile and continued to gaze at his face, making him speechless.
'Just what is she doing?' he thought with a frown and decided to ignore her.
While Irene, who was focused on his handso face, wore a thoughtful expression.
'He definitely isn't using any bewitching skills; then why does he feel more handso? Is it because of spirits around him?' she thought, feeling puzzled, and continued to stare at him, searching for the answers.
When suddenly, she saw Li Wei's face stiffening after looking at sothing, and she too looked into the sa direction as his, becoming stiff.
'Why are they here?' she scread in her mind, looking at Lyla and her companions coming towards them in a rapid pace.
"Irene, does your artifact really work?" Li Wei asked with a whisper.
"Yes, my artifact is working, and it's a secret one to protect myself, so not many people know of it, even my legion; they aren't aware of it," Irene replied, making him stunned and speechless again.
'Damn, she is using a life-saving artifact to run away and have fun; is everything really okay with her head?' Li Wei thought with a sigh when Lyla and her companions reached them.
