Chapter 307: The Hotel
What happened later can be said to be both reasonable and incredible, after becoming the president's secretary, Wellington's talents have been more fully displayed, just like those who have talent, as long as they are given a suitable stage, can definitely surprise the audience.
Wellington had an innate talent for dealing with the complexity of government affairs, and he was able to get everything in order and benefit everyone.
Riley also knew Wellington when he was a secretary, when Riley was already a gold-level adventurer and vice president of the association, and it was in this cooperation that Riley saw Wellington's extraordinary talent.
In the tone he used to tell Soth in the guild, "You don't know, Mr. Soth—in just one week, I was completely overwhelmed by Wellington's abilities, which convinced me that he was a genius in government management!"
In this way, Wellington was slowly able to help the old president with almost all the affairs, and even free up his energy to organize the daily life of the old president.
The original president is old, and there are all kinds of inconveniences in life, and the injuries that fell when he was a mercenary when he was young have also come to the door at this time, and he is already in poor health, but after having such a big help as Wellington, of course, he is not satisfied.
After a while, it was up to Wellington to do everything.
And not long after he became the president's secretary in Wellington, the old president fell ill, and his condition became more and more serious, and the doctor had no choice but to say that it was a dark illness caused by the accumulated old injuries of the year.
And the elder will take risks all his life, and life and death have long been too important, and after a short period of advice to Riley, he died quietly at night.
By the time Soth heard Riley's sighing recount, his heart was already full of doubts, and his suspicions about Wellington were spreading wildly.
Wellington's smiling face, which became more and more hypocritical the more he thought about it, kept coming to mind, and no matter how much he thought about it, he felt that the death of the elder had nothing to do with him.
It's not that Soth wants to find out the truth and ask for an explanation for the elder or something, but after analyzing all the facts, he feels that Wellington is becoming more and more interesting, and he wants to include him even more under his command.
Of course, what can't be controlled is such a question, Soth will never think about it, because the power of the two is not at the same level at all.
Then it was a happy reversal, when everyone thought that Riley would become the next president as the strongest adventurer and vice president of the association, Riley stood up and elected Wellington.
Soth felt sorry for Riley as he remembered the pride on his face when he told him about it, and he would have had a particularly amused expression if he could find out what kind of child Wellington was.
Of course, Soth didn't think that he couldn't see it, the fox's tail would be exposed sooner or later, and Wellington naturally had a purpose for pretending to be for so long.
Now, whether out of curiosity or simply wanting to see Riley's surprised expression, Soth was going to investigate a little bit into what this Wellington was secretly trying to do.
He didn't want to punish evil and promote good, or become a savior hero or anything, just for fun, for his own pleasure, and wasn't that how he wanted to travel?
Discover interesting people and interesting things, and then get involved, if it's just to see the scenery, why don't he follow Eddie and them out to sea in Wotan, after all, the scenery on the Wotan continent is also very rich.
"We're here Mr. Soth—" Sasha's words woke Soth from his sea of contemplation, and he looked up to see a dark alley, and in the middle of the alley, in the middle of the alley, there was an inn with a sign of broken wood.
The four of them were now standing in front of a dilapidated wooden door beneath the signboard, and Sasha's expression became a little embarrassed, and he had completely forgotten how shabby this inn, which was not so bad for them, that he had completely forgotten how shabby this inn was for someone of Soth's stature.
Sasha now began to regret his complacency, and even why he had agreed to it in the first place, for a man like Lord Soth had remembered his agreement with him, and he had brought him to such a hotel.
"Are you sure it's still open here?" said Soth, speechless, looking at the crumbling wooden sign above his head, looking around the dark alley.
Well, maybe that's a good location for adventurers, as it is dark, hidden, easy to hide, and looks like an underground place where people gather, and maybe it's easy to get information.
But—it's a little too tattered.
"Ah-I'm sorry, Mr. South, please come with me, I think there's another one that would suit you, but I really didn't think about it here-"
Sasha had to grit his teeth and bow his head to Thoss, this was indeed because he didn't think it through, and now he had to take Soth to the most luxurious inn in the city immediately, although Sasha had never stayed once, even when he was a nobleman.
"I don't know how much it will cost, maybe I'll really have to borrow money from Rooney and Avril. "Sasha's loan here naturally has to be repaid.
But Sasha didn't expect Soss to repay the "borrowed money" from the beginning, after all, asking for money from such a strong person is a bit inconsistent with Sasha's worldview, and he has never seen a tiger return money to a rabbit.
But Soth's previous respect played a role, and Sasha gritted his teeth and decided to pay the fee, after all, Sos is now like his idol, and Sasha thinks it's worth spending the money for Sos.
"No, let's stay here, maybe it's fine——?" But to Sasha's surprise, Soth refused and stepped forward to push open the broken wooden door.
"But Mr. Soth - this place is so shabby, only some unruly adventurers and mercenaries ......"
But by this time Soth had already walked in, and inside was a dimly lit corridor, and there was a small bar on the side, and an old woman with gray hair and a wrinkled face with a gloomy expression was sitting on a high stool behind the bar.
Sasha knew that she was a resident-level person, maybe the owner of the inn or something, and the path led to the lobby on the first floor.
The gloomy hut was often filled with ordinary adventurers or mercenaries, and although it was dimly lit, it was not too noisy and not as scary as expected, and Sasha used to dine there after their adventures.
But Sasha wasn't sure if Sos would get used to it, and he was more inclined to take him to the best hotel in Sanafriya, and he already regretted his wandering.
Because Soth walked straight to the old woman behind the desk and shouted, "Hey, mother-in-law, there's a stay!"
