Chapter 124: The Correct Use of Goblins
"We goblins are the most sensitive to magic and curses!" The little guy named Manna is as delicate and beautiful as the most elaborate figure, but with a look of "I'm amazing, come and beg me", "As long as you let your shop open a permanent 70% discount to all of us elves, we will send out the clan to help you quell the rumors!"
For some reason, Andre suddenly had an inexplicable impulse to bounce this babbling little man under the table with his fingers.
"No need to ...... for clarification"
"What~What!~" The little man with his transparent wings shook like a moth flying around the flames, and the eyes of the children of the abyss were dazzled, "It turns out that the curses and witchcraft you have added to your food are all true!~"
Holding back a slap on the table, Andre replied word by word: "We already have enough methods to deal with rumors, so I won't bother you if you clarify something." ”
"Hey~~!, why ...... like this" The goblins flying around the room all quieted down, drooping their transparent wings that reflected the colorful halo, like a dragonfly drenched in the rainstorm, and shook her wings slightly in frustration.
"Isn't it really good? 7% off...... Or, or 20% off?"
Gru on the side looked at the group of goblins who were as listless as frosted eggplants, and whispered in the ears of the children of the abyss: "Your Highness, although your method seems foolproof to me. But the kindness of these goblins is still well-known in Garanord, so why don't you add this insurance according to what they say?"
The expressions of the goblins who were still disappointed just now instantly became expectant again, and the goblins didn't know that some of the attributes of these little guys even far surpassed those of the elves who were excellent in all aspects, and they had already heard all his "whispers" in their ears.

Through the increasingly acute "Abyss Eye", Andre can even detect the other party's attributes without contact. At the same time, he has mastered some of the qualities of this ability.
Regarding the unique physical characteristics of the elves, the children of the abyss learned from Yudeon. These strange creatures seem to be physically delicate, but in fact, it is difficult to inflict fatal damage on them with ordinary physical means. Even decapitation, dismemberment, and the like are absolutely fatal to all flesh and blood, and they can't even kill them completely. If they are unable to destroy their magical cores, they will go through a period of weakness for a longer or shorter period before slowly repairing or reshaping their flesh and blood.
As a result, this almost "immortal" characteristic makes these little creatures have stupid and bold habits and an irrepressible curiosity to death.
To be honest, Andre is reluctant to cooperate with these little ones who have the same attributes as the bear child, but in the current situation of Andrari, it is necessary to unite and co-opt everyone's forces.
"But if you are willing to swear under the gaze of the goddess and obey the arrangement and not cause trouble for us, I have some work here for you. André suddenly had a new idea.
"Don't do anything strange to us~!" Mana at the head of the group weakly emphasized.
Sensing that his fingers were already showing signs of irrational control, the Child of the Abyss forcibly suppressed the idea of giving the other party a headshot with a "snap of his fingers", and replied lightly, "This is the procedure that all employees go through when signing a formal employment contract with Andrari, and the Great Goddess will supervise the contract between us!"
......
Helen Aoba is a young woman who has just become a mother for less than a year. For a young mother with little parenting experience, it is really overwhelming when that cute and charming little mischief torments people. Fortunately, her and her husband's parents would come over from time to time to help take care of her, so that Helen had no energy and was so haggard that she could no longer sleep well.
Rubbing her sleepy eyes and sleeping beautifully, Helen, who had just woken up, saw her husband with a faint smile on his face.
"Did you sleep well? honey?"
"Hmm~!" Squinting her dark green eyes and stretching, Helen wondered why her husband was home at this time, "Edward, why did you come back so early?
Helen's husband, Edward, was a skilled woodcarver and spent many afternoons immersed in his studio. In recent years, perhaps because of his children, Edward's craft has always been less stable, so he has always worked extra hard when his children are in the care of their parents.
"I met a good thing today, and the inspiration is constantly coming to my mind! I don't think I will have to worry about creating materials for a while now!" said the young husband was very excited.
"What's the good thing?" said Helen, hugging her knees lazily on the bed.
"Look at this. Edward placed his new work he had just finished in the afternoon in front of his wife.
It is a life-size wooden sculpture featuring two cute goblins holding a small wooden plate together. The delicate appearance of Yan Yan made Helen, who was overflowing with motherhood, like it very much.
However, she immediately noticed a small anomaly, and that was that the delicate objects in the wooden plate were not carved out of wood.
"What is this?" asked Helen curiously.
"You'll know if you taste it!"
Lowering his head and sniffing carefully, the beautiful yellow gadgets seemed to have a faint sweet fragrance. When you put it in your mouth, the crunchy texture and the blissful sweetness that makes you feel extremely satisfying immediately conquer the young mother who has been suffering from a poor appetite for a while.
"What the hell is this?" Helen was even more curious.
"Remember the soup with emerald scales?" said Edward, with a look on his face that he had a lot of good things to share.
"It's a rare delicacy...... But didn't the old gentleman of the neighborhood, tell us to be careful of the demons' bad intentions?"
"Don't worry, dear, do you know who recommended the cookie you just ate to me?"
"Who is it?"
The young husband looked at the wood carving in his wife's hand with a wicked smile on his face.
"Is it a goblin?"
"That's right! it's the elves!" Edward looked like a child eager to share toys with his companions, "You know what I saw when I passed by the emerald scales!?"
Before the wife could say anything, the excited husband immediately answered: "There are fairies everywhere dragging plates and baskets to distribute snacks!
"Don't be stupid! That's a goblin who is more sensitive to the elements and magic than us elves! Remember Chef Hawkins with Emerald Scales? These cookies were freshly made on the spot by that master of craftsmanship! What are they called...... Oh yes! Hawkins' food class! Do you know how many people were watching? Master Hawkins can bake several kilograms of biscuits at a time, but I waited half an hourglass to buy such a little!"
"Would you like to see it? Helen?"
"Hmm!" replied the young wife, cheerfully.
"Let's go to Mom and Dad to pick up the kids and watch Master Hawkins teach live, and then have dinner together as a family at Emerald Fish Scales!?"
Helen, who was disheveled, excitedly got out of the light quilt and hugged her dear husband tightly: "Husband, you are amazing!~"
