"You...... Not leaving? ”

Arrow nodded lightly and smiled, "Well, I'm not leaving." ”

"You're not going to throw me off? Wouldn't you say anything like you'll come back to pick me up someday? What will you make with me? ”

"Mm-hmm, it's true, the mermaid song is going to continue to play here. It will be open until at least the end of next year. ”

"But what about the True Eye? What are those guys going to do? ”

"I've got a way."

"What's the solution? Do you really have a solution? Have you negotiated with them? What's the weird idea you've come up with again? Or if you can give me hundreds of magic crystals in one go, I can really help you! ”

"Don't worry, really, there's really a way."

"You don't lie to me? You humans like to deceive the most, do you really promise that you didn't lie to me? Swear by all the gold you have? ”

"Yes, really. I swear by all my possessions that I really have a way to deal with the True Eye, and I really won't leave Pelican Town. Is that okay? ”

Napa, sitting blankly at the counter.

After these conversations, it pricked up its ears again, staring into Arrow's eyes in a daze.

After a few moments, the cat finally retracted its gaze, raised its paws to lick it, stroked its hair, and turned around.

"I'm going to teach those little bastards a lesson."

As it spoke, it floated to the back of the hall.

That tone, there really isn't a little fluctuation.

Arrow smiled and continued to look down at the books in his hands.

Watching these numbers gradually take shape in his hands, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

As with any boring study, just compiling these books here really didn't make Arrow feel happy.

Of course, he also knew that the only thing he could do now was that.

Keep doing the calculations, keep writing the numbers, and then use the formulas to figure out all the accounts one by one.

But gradually, he suddenly felt that if such a boring day could last forever...... At least until the end of next year, it might not be a bad thing.

As long as...... Can it go on and on......

Squeak –

With the sound of door pushing and footsteps, a person slowly walked into the guild.

Arrow looked up, and when he saw the smiling old man of sugar-coated wine walking towards him, he knew that the time he had had been able to calculate these accounts was completely gone.

"How?"

Arrow put down his pen and let the smile on his face be as gentle as possible.

The old gentleman walked up to Arrow, nodded slightly, and said, "Everything is going well. If this town were in a big city, you would already be able to hear a lot of news, right? Want to know what's going on? ”

Arrow smiled bitterly, clasped his hands on the table, and said, "Is there anything new compared to the previous political (harmonious) struggles?" ”

Sugar-coated wine shook his head slightly, and also sighed slowly: "Not really. No matter what the excuse is or what the reason is, there will be no difference in the fundamental content of such a thing as partisanship. ”

Arrow waved his hand: "Then I won't listen." It's just a matter of listening to more excuses and lies. ”

The old man nodded appreciatively and said with a smile, "I just like this kind of character of yours. All right! You don't need to listen to the specifics, but I can tell you that the Hisstein family is in a very precarious situation right now. Moreover, most of the people in their family had to make a political cut with the Earl of Eagle. ”

Arrow walked out of the counter and poured himself a glass of water, as well as the old gentleman in front of him. He took a sip of water and said, "You're really fast, huh?" It's not even October, and you're able to do it to this extent? It looks like the battle between the main battle faction and the main peace faction has reached a point of life and death. ”

The sugar-coated wine also took a sip of the water glass and said with a smile: "You are wrong about this." As far as I know, the Hisstein family does not belong to either party's partisanship. Especially the Count of Rui Ying, he belongs to a very slick type in the empire, basically in a role where no one can be offended, but neither side joins. ”

"But it was precisely because he didn't join either side this time, so once something happened, no one from the main battle faction and the main peace faction spoke for him. This led to the fact that once something happened to him, he would immediately collapse in a very short period of time. Alas...... This may be the only consequence of wanting to be alone in today's world and not cooperating with others. ”

Sugar-coated nodded a little regretfully, he put down his glass of water, and said earnestly to Arrow, "Child, I know that you may have a desire to do great things, and do many, many great things. But as an old man, a person who has come over, I still want to advise you. In life, it is not easy to just live. The best way to survive in this world is to see the road ahead, not to do anything too out of the ordinary, and to enjoy the life you can already enjoy. ”

Arrow poured the old man a glass of water again and said with a smile, "It's just the easiest way to survive...... That's a lot of money. ”

The old man's face was full of a kind smile: "No, these prices are paid by you for wanting to break through the convention, not for you to enjoy the life you could have enjoyed. ”

Turning around, Arrow saw that Cream had come down from the second floor. Only then did he rub his shoulders slightly and said, "Let's not talk about that nonsense." What's going on? The condition of the True Eye. ”

Sugar-coated wine also put away the kind smile on his face, nodded slightly, and said, "Heavenly Light and Night Fangs have accepted this commission from your guild. Now the problem is your mermaid song. Because the money you gave was really not a lot for a top-level guild like Heavenly Light, their guild also made some requests. ”

"After all, no matter how you say it, this is also a kind of war of annihilation against other guilds, and many people may die when the time comes. And according to rumors, the whistleblower who really denounced Count Shri Eagle Hisstein is your mermaid song. ”

"In this case, the Light of Heaven has proposed that you Mermaid Song also participate in this war of annihilation. It doesn't matter if you're just standing from the back and watching. However, your guild must be fully mobilized to express your attitude towards this matter. ”

Arrow thought about it, couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said, "Speaking of which, our Mermaid Song is in charge of a bird named 'Commander', but in fact it is a bird that takes responsibility, right?" ”

Sugar-coated wine smiled and said, "Whatever you want." It's cruel, but are you willing to accept it? ”

Arrow took a deep breath, lowered his head and thought about it, and said, "Cruel? I've spent five hundred gold coins, is there anything more cruel than that? Come forward, huh? Yes! And I'd like to meet with the heads of these two guilds and have a good chat. What's more, my guild members can also earn a bit of XP by participating in this event. I think...... That's not too much, right? ”

As he said this, Arrow's gaze was fixed on the old man in front of him.

But all he could see was the deep and unfathomable smile in the old man's eyes.

After a little thought, the old man finally nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, it looks like you want to struggle a little more." I'm here to inform you that you'll arrive in Snow Creek City by the end of October, and according to the information from the Heavenly Light, the True Eye should hold a large gathering at the end of October, and then it's time to engage in a frontal annihilation battle with them. How far does it take to get from Pelican to Snow Creek...... I think you should be the slowest and should be off at the end of September. ”

Arrow smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then thank you Mr. Sugarcoat." I will remember this day and ...... I will never forget what you have done for our guild. ”

Although Arrow's words were obviously prickly, even sharp enough to be heard by Cream, who was preparing to go out, and Margaux, who was manicing his nails at the door, he felt strange and looked this way.

But the sugar-coated wine seemed to care about this sharpness at all, and the smile on his face was still kind. He nodded lightly at Arrow as he reached out his hand, as if to come over and rub Arrow's hair a little. But halfway through, after seeing the undisguised hostility in Arrow's eyes, he thought about it and shrank back.

"Well, I'll go first. I'm done with my investment in Pelican Town. We'll meet again when you're in the capital. Hopefully, you'll really understand what's best for you. ”

With the gentlest smile of all smiles, the old man bowed lightly to Arrow and turned around. While facing the confused expressions of Cream and Margaux, he still said goodbye to the two members with a gentle smile, and then walked out of the Guild Gate of Merfolk Song on crutches.

Knock ——!

After the icing leaves, Margaux and Cream are shocked by the loud noise coming from the direction of the counter.

They all turned their heads to look at their president, but it was extremely rare to see such a painful expression on his face.

The president bit his lower lip and stared directly at the account book in front of him, but for a long time, there was no response......
