Chapter 5.3-E: Dice
·
You decide to interfere with both the quest chosen by William and the adventurers he recommends. You firmly rejected William.
William was very dissatisfied: "What's the matter? I can't take the bulletin board mission normally, and neither can the companions I recommend? This task can be taken by every adventurer at will, isn't it? As for the people I brought, I can be a guarantee, otherwise my brother-in-law can also vouch for it." The elder will not forget who my brother-in-law is, will he? The vice-captain of the guard! The security of the whole town is in his hands!"
Actually, it's not "all".
Silently, you push forward with the sharpest weapon in your hand.
Hathaway cleared her throat and said indifferently: "Obviously, Mr. William joined the club in a hurry, and he didn't carefully read the adventurer's code - if the adventurer is suspected of illegal and criminal behavior, our guild has the right to temporarily exempt him from his identity as an adventurer during the investigation, and my guild has the right to assist the guards to clean up the portal after the evidence is conclusive." ”
William took a half step back: "...... What does that mean?"
"Cleaning up the portal means taking out the rats in the pot, chopping them up, and feeding them to the cats, who did Mr. William learn the language from, barbarian?" Hathaway was already in a bad mood, but at this moment she covered her mouth with her backhand and chuckled, "Answer Mr. William's two questions. First, the last time you destroyed vampire bats, there was a case of artificially using bat teeth to attack subhuman species, and I remember that you didn't provide bat wings and teeth to my guild at that time, and if you wiped out the nezumi again, you might ......"
"I'm selling ......!"
"Shut up and don't understand that it's a virtue to listen?"
Hathaway smiled coldly, sending chills down the spine of everyone present in the silence.
"That's why my guild is refusing you to take the Billboard quest "normally" that "any adventurer" can take, because Mr. William is not a "normal adventurer" at the moment. Hathaway continued, "Second, my guild has the right to refuse to allow anyone to register as an adventurer. Here, paragraph 3 of Article 10 provides: That's why rejecting your referral – no why. ”
Angry
William's muscles burst with bruises, his face flushed, and he silently touched his hand to his waist while his eyes showed a fierce light. At some point, Paul was already standing very close behind William, silent.
"Don't forget, your current employer is my brother-in-law!"
"The task given to me by the vice-captain is to guard this place for three days to ensure that the adventurer's guild hall is safe and sound. The original phrase is, "If necessary, beat it down." ”
Click, you can hear William's teeth grinding against each other. William's companion crept around behind Paul and struck at him. The atmosphere of battle in the hall was almost imminent. William stared at Hathaway's neck, while the other thief stared at Paul's back.
Hathaway pinched the order for the arrest of the two unidentified thieves with two fingertips, walked slowly between Paul and William as if no one was in a no-man's land, and stopped in front of the bulletin board.
Hathaway flattening order,
Look for a suitable vacant seat on the billboard,
Reach out and stick it.
"Wait!" William suddenly shouted to stop, "Have you really forgotten who my brother-in-law is!
"Because I didn't forget, I asked Fierting to temporarily press this order on the counter. It's Mr. William who forgot something, right?"
"Huh?"
Hathaway shook the stack of materials in his hand, and read word by word: "A month ago, the vice captain repaid the loan for his brother-in-law, four times, a total of 674 gold, and his salary was completely insufficient to pay such a large amount; half a month ago, the vice captain's wife returned to her parents' house for a week due to a dispute between husband and wife, and finally he had to coax his wife back, and the witnesses jokingly said that "the vice captain married his daughter-in-law again"; seven days ago, the vice captain beat the citizens in the street for no reason- That is, those entangled debt collectors were punished by the captain. ”
William's expression was like eating a fly.
"If you kill your brother-in-law, of course your brother-in-law will be furious, after all, you have to show it to others. But in the middle of the night, when no one is around, it is unknown that a certain brother-in-law may be grateful to the murderer who sent away the declining god. How angry will it be?-4?-6?At most, that's it. Hathaway confronted William with her beautiful smile, "There is a specific reason why the presidents, adventurers, and employees of the three guilds have died and are crippled, but I can be the only one who has survived to this day. Put away your funny dagger and welcome back next time. ”
Hathaway bowed deeply to William.
Fierting bowed deeply to William.
William and his companions were speechless and pale. I'll come back again—— leaving a line that villains often use, and they left angrily. William's eyes became dangerous, another danger of lacking the courage to kill.
Baron Roberts Doug, who stood silently watching the play, put the order in his hand on the counter, hesitated, and finally put it in his arms and turned away.
"Don't worry. Including Hathaway and Fierdine said, "The guy who hides behind his brother-in-law doesn't have the ability to do great things, and the guy who has the ability to toss the storm won't hide behind his brother-in-law in the first place." ”
Fierting bowed slightly to Paul in thanks.
Hathaway kept smiling and sat back down, "I'm not worried, because it's the decision of the president of my family." Supporting all the decisions of the president is the secretary's first priority. ”
The smile lasted all morning.
After returning to calm, no one else came to the hall.
Probably enough of being angry, Hathaway took your hand and said she was going to lunch. Of course, it's still yours to treat. I don't know when it became a convention to invite her to lunch.
As you cross the streets, keep an eye out for black cats, speeding carriages or flower pots on your balcony. It seems that Raumi's curse of doom has indeed expired.
You ask Hathaway why she has been in a bad mood since the morning.
"No, why, is it okay to have a period?"
As soon as she entered the Dragon Pavilion, Hathaway was greeted by a lively atmosphere like no other—there were many tables around her, but most of them were gathered in the middle of the tavern.
You two come over and look,
It's a simple makeshift gamble. Small gambling is not illegal in this town.
A guest who was eating had just lost a bet, and the atmosphere around him suddenly boiled, shouting and laughing. The little boy sitting across the table should be the dealer, who seems to have won a lot of money in a row, and has stirred up the atmosphere very hotly.
"The Hobbit?"
"No, I'm a light halfling, to be exact. ”
Although Hathaway was only whispering to herself, the little boy, a halfling male who appeared to be an adult, was keenly heard and corrected with a playful smile...... Although there is no difference between the two words. Any halfling that can be seen is a light halfling, a strong-hearted halfling is rare, and there is nothing wrong with changing the name to a hobbit or hobbit.
Beside the halfling's table was a fiery red flail. It's definitely not for him, then it's definitely gambling money.
"Miss, do you want to play a game, participate in Fei Hardware, and if you win, this magic weapon with fire damage is yours!" As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding guests shouted enthusiastically and encouraged Hathaway.
Hathaway turns her head and encourages you, "Grown, will you try?"
You indicate that halflings are born gamblers.
"What are you afraid of, you will lose if you fight for luck? The witch's curse can't kill you, it's almost a thousand years old, and some fight. The flail was estimated to be worth fifty gold. ”
Despite the same smile, Hathaway looked like she was in a better mood.
The game in front of you is simple: one dice cup for one person, five dice for the banker and four for the player. Both sides shake the cup at the same time. If the banker rolls a straight, a pair plus three of the same number or a pair with a straight, it wins, otherwise, the banker picks out a die for the player. If the player happens to win immediately after collecting five dice, if he doesn't win, the offense and defense are swapped, and the player takes the five dice and shakes the cup first, repeating the previous process. One game to decide the winner.
(The author will shake the dice in a serious way)
What are you going to do?
A, bet a game
B, forget it
