It's been three days later, and the port city of Vicz is still thriving.

A few days ago, because the turmoil caused by the great miracle on the Feather Fall Festival gradually subsided, the merchants and mercenaries still came and went, and the inns and liquor shops were as lively as in the past, and this port city seemed to be unaffected by the turmoil.

But the sudden increase in the number of patrols and guards in the streets, and even the occasional sight of the Hand of the Arcane under the royal family, all of this is undoubtedly a sign of the undercurrent of the situation in Vicz.

As a result, some businessmen with a keen sense of smell have cancelled their overseas plans and scaled back their business territory in order to cope with the uncertain situation.

But for most merchants, the monsoon wind blowing from the sea symbolizes the arrival of the 'window period' of the ocean.

The ocean-going merchants who had been nesting in Vikz for the winter could finally cross the long distance between the east and west of the pancontinent with the help of the oceanic monsoon that gradually blew in the trade wind month, which was an annual carnival of the transoceanic merchants.

Since it was a carnival, the dinner ball was an indispensable part, but this year, as was customary, when the merchants began to hold a series of grand banquets to celebrate their voyage to the sea, they encountered some trouble.

The Marquis of Somerset, the garrison governor of Vicks, who had always been known for his good words, added more restrictions to the already strict curfew at the beginning of this trade wind month.

Clauses such as 'no one is allowed to go out after the sun has set without special permission' and 'no group gathering of more than eight people' directly limited the enthusiasm of the merchants.

As we all know, a celebration without a dinner ball has no soul, so Gregory, who is the interim president of the Vicz Chamber of Commerce, volunteered to go to the Marquess of Somerset's mansion to find out the news.

Just when many merchants were looking forward to it, Gregory was stripped naked and thrown out of the marquis's mansion, and became a laughing stock in the market for a while.

After this humiliation, the merchants of the port city were much more honest, and in desperation, one merchant ship after another silently began their arduous sea voyage.

And humiliated, Gregory has locked himself in his big mansion for several days, and even this year's ocean voyage was not involved.

Rumors from outside are getting more and more outrageous, raising doubts about whether the famously shrewd businessman will quit Wickz's business district, but in reality, Gregory is just hosting a special guest on his estate.

"The style of Your Excellency's manor is quite interesting, it seems to have some elven style? Hmm~ It seems to be mixed with some northern characteristics. ”

Roger in a black dress with a stand-up collar was sitting at a small table with his legs crossed, his long brown hair tied back in a ponytail, drinking elegant roasted black tea, like an elegant upper-class person, who had just climbed ashore last night.

The discussion in Alexia three days ago did not yield any practical results, and although there was a lot of discussion and hypotheses about the identity of the dark shadow that overrode the dragons, it was limited to that.

For example, Roger, this guy proposed a story of sadomasochism between dragons and humans, the twists and turns of the plot, the fullness of the characters, even the author sighed to himself, but ...... It doesn't do anything for the situation.

Judging from the fact that more 'Petrels' were sent to search along the trajectory last time, and the imposing group of bipedal wyverns could not be found, it seems that this time they migrated along a very different path than in previous years, or that group of brainless beasts may have hidden themselves.

Or maybe it's a little more extreme...... Their destination this year may not even be Alexia. But it was concluded that there was nothing more to be done than to strengthen the alert level on the island.

All in all, Alexia's pre-war meeting ended in a more solemn atmosphere, and Roger, who had a lot of ideas, was much more relaxed than the sad-faced leaders.

Handed over Tina's little girl to the eye-piercing Arugao, Roger ran to find Alley with a cigarette, the Arcane Demon Servant who had not been seen for a long time was still capable, and he had nothing to say about Roger's return.

Although Alley was rolling his eyes at Roger from beginning to end, he still silently wrote down the arrangement that Roger said.

Alley was able to accept that unreliable suggestion, even Roger himself was surprised, although this plan sounded incredible, but it was not Roger's whim, on the contrary, it was a key part of Alexia's development, and Roger was relieved that it could go well.

But not everything went so smoothly, when looking for Elway to get his last reset creation, Roger was almost killed by the bastard elf in his dormitory, which is inconvenient to go into detail, in short, after that day, Roger fled as if he took the Aujin to the Gray Sea to plunder, and went to Vikz to collect intelligence.

Well, Roger didn't run away to hide from that madman at Elwe.

"Haha, Mr. Roger has good eyesight," Gregory wiped the corners of his forehead, and his face still had the bruises that had been thrown out of the door a few days ago, "This manor was specially planned by me last time when I went to White Rock Castle and asked an acquaintance to introduce me to a design master who belongs to the royal garden to help plan, and it was designed in the style of the elves." ”

As he spoke, Gregory took the beautiful white porcelain teapot from the maid beside him and filled it with Roger.

Roger smiled at Gregory's fat neck, which still had a slight red mark on it, and said: "Your Excellency doesn't need to be so nervous, last time on the Auguin, the contemptible person has already made it clear that the grievances between us have been written off, and now Your Excellency can completely treat the contemptible person as a partner who comes to visit." ”

"It should be, it should be. ”

Although Gregory's smile was humble, there was no reluctance, and serving Roger seemed to be willing, as if the previous festival had really been written off, or he had surrendered to defeat.

The maid next to him took the teacup, and Gregory stroked the little hand of the 'maid', and said with emotion: "If it weren't for your arrangement, Mr. Elway came to Vikz to help and destroyed the base of the Hurricane Mercenary Regiment, and the little girl might have been sold to the Great Rift Valley as a slave by the Hurricane Mercenary Regiment.......

Gregory's voice couldn't help but choke up a little, so that he couldn't speak for a while, while Roger stared a little sluggishly at the woman he had always regarded as a maid.

This fat girl is Gregory's daughter Winnie? I said, why is this fat man so bad in taste, and found such a fat pig....... Occasionally, the plump girl came to be a maid, it seems that although the housekeeper is silent, she still helped me deal with a lot of things, even if I am here for the time being, it is not a teacher.

"Brandon, that bastard, if he hadn't been buried on the Suzuka, I would have exiled him to a desert island in the endless sea!"

Winnie stopped the frenzied Gregory and said delicately, "Don't say it, Daddy, I ......"

Halfway through speaking, Winnie turned her face away from her face very pretentiously, and threw a flattering look at Roger as she wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

I'll go, big sister, why do you want to play this game too? I really don't have the blessing to take it.

Roger vomited in his heart, racking his brains to change the topic, or wait for Gregory, the fat man, to marry his daughter to repay him.

"By the way, Mr. Gregory, please try this. ”

Roger suddenly remembered the new toy he had received from Elway, so he stroked the bone ring on his index finger, and then the space in front of Roger was distorted, and Winnie, who was sobbing with her head down, immediately stopped crying.

The distorted space was smoothed out by the inherent rules for a moment, and a large piece of flesh appeared on the small table.

The piece of meat was cut squarely, and thick muscle fibers could be seen, which could be imagined to have been cut from some kind of large beast.

The surface of the large piece of flesh that has just appeared outside is also covered with hoarfrost, which gradually melts into a pale green mucus over time.

Roger retracted his hand into his cuffs and introduced with a smile: "I didn't say anything about coming empty-handed, it just so happened that I hit a bipedal wyvern on the way here, which was frozen with ice, and I just brought it over to try it for the two of you." ”

"It's just that the wyvern is too big, and I can only cut the flesh of the back with the best taste. ”

"How does this make. Gregory tries to excuse himself, but is stopped by Roger with a smile.

"You're welcome, I'm here for Vikz this time, this is also one of my tasks, if Mr. tastes good, then in two days, I think there will be a large amount of dragon meat for Mr. to sell." If it's done right, it's going to be a good business. ”

At the mention of business, Gregory finally regained his shrewdness as a businessman, and in a moment of thought, he thought it was a good business.

Gregory has seen a lot of things on the market, but this is the first time he has seen such a purely magical creature, after all, this kind of material is priceless, and not everyone knows that the meat of this bipedal wyvern is inedible.

Although the market may be saturated by the influx of dragon meat in a short period of time, you should have made a lot of money before then, right?

While Gregory was scheming, Roger handed Winnie the dragon meat on the plate, and said with a smile, "Can you please ask Miss to bring this piece of dragon meat to the restaurant?" ”

Winnie, who made a cameo appearance as a maid today, naturally couldn't shirk it, and left with a plate, and Roger was secretly relieved.

With Winnie out of the way, Roger took a sip of tea, pretending to inadvertently ask the Lord of his profession.

"By the way, Mr. Gregory, I wonder if there's anything new in Vicz lately?"
