Rocky plans to speak with Monte himself to see if he can convince the orc to stay with him.

And for his approach, Lilia is naturally very supportive.

Because their goal was to recruit Monte, if Rocky, the lord of the city, could meet Monte in person, he would undoubtedly show enough sincerity, and the effect would definitely be much better than that of others.

So after that, Rocky left the City Lord's Mansion with Lilia, and then got into a carriage and headed to the city.

Monte hadn't met Rocky since he came to Thunderhawk City, but his whereabouts Rocky was very clear, firstly, Thunderhawk City was not big, and Monte did not have much place to go, and secondly, because Lilia had already asked the patrolling guards to pay attention to his movements.

So after coming out of the city lord's mansion, the two of them took a carriage and went straight to the hotel where Monte was staying, and arrived in a short time.

"Lord Castle, why are you—why are you here......?"

When Monte opened the door of the hotel and saw Rocky standing in front of him, the tall orc was stunned, obviously not expecting that he would see the city lord again.

"Why? Don't you want to see me?"

Looking at the stunned Monte, Rocky casually joked.

It's a pity that he forgot the identity gap between himself and Monte, because Monte's face instantly turned bad when he heard his words: "My lord atoned for his sins, I didn't mean that!"

As he spoke, Monte hurriedly moved out of his tall form and ushered Rocky and Lilia into the room.

"Hello, Lord Castle!"

As soon as Rocky entered the room, he heard a crisp greeting, and when he followed the voice, he saw Monte's daughter, the young orc.

Monte's daughter looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old, but because she was an orc, she was almost equal in appearance and stature to Lilia, and she was greeting Rocky warmly.

"Hello. ”

Nodding slightly at Monte's daughter, Rocky smiled as well.

"Tussauds!

Monte, who was following behind Rocky, saw that her daughter was so rude, and hurriedly scolded: "Go back to the house quickly, don't mess around with the city lord here!"

"Oh......"

After being scolded by her father, Tussaud lowered her head with her mouth shut, and then reluctantly returned to the room, but although she closed the door, she still left a crack in the door, and peeked out on her stomach through the crack in the door.

"Monte, don't be so nervous, I'm just here to see how your injuries are. ”

Ignoring Tussaud's small movements, Rocky glanced at Monte and then said with a smile.

"Lord Castle, please be seated. ”

However, although Rocky said that he didn't need to be nervous, how could Monte not be nervous, so he not only hurriedly gave up his seat to Rocky, but he even stood there without sitting down.

"You can sit too, don't be so restrained. ”

At Rocky's repeated requests, Monte finally sat down across from him, but he was still very restrained.

"How's your injury?"

Seeing that Monte was always tense, Rocky really had no choice, so he simply chatted with him.

"Thank you, my injury, my injuries are no longer serious. ”

"That's ......"

Hearing this, Rocky nodded, and then glanced at Monte's severed arm, which had been bandaged and had obviously been professionally treated by a doctor, so it did look fine.

Rocky then shifted his gaze to Monte's face, looked at him, and asked, "Monte, are you still planning to be a demon hunter?"

"This ......"

Unexpectedly, Rocky would suddenly ask such a thing, Monte was slightly stunned, and then shook his head with a wry smile: "My lord, I shouldn't be able to hunt demons anymore." ”

As he spoke, he unconsciously touched his broken arm and sighed at the same time.

His arm was broken, and although he said that he had received treatment in time and would be fine after cultivating for a while, he could no longer be a demon hunter.

"What are your plans for the future?"

Monte's answer was entirely unexpected, so he paused for a moment before opening his mouth again.

And as soon as he asked this question, Monte, who was still a little unclear before, immediately reacted, and he immediately understood why Rocky came to see him, and at the same time understood why Rocky asked these questions.

Therefore, Monte thought for a while before speaking again: "My lord, my daughter and I still have some savings, so I don't have plans yet. ”

"That'...... Would you be interested in staying with me?"

At this point, Rocky stopped going around the bend, and went directly to the topic, explaining his intention straight to the point.

"My lord, I haven't thought about it yet. ”

Glancing at Rocky, Monte said tactfully.

This answer, in fact, is equivalent to giving Rocky an answer, that is, he does not intend to stay in Thunderhawk City.

That's really what Monte really thinks, he's been in Thunderhawk City for a few days, and although he's spent most of his time in the hospital, he already knows a lot about the city, so he knows exactly what kind of city it is.

Monte felt that such a city was too small for him.

Because as Lilia judged before, Monte was a fifth-level warrior or even a sixth-level warrior before he was injured, so even now, with only one arm, he still has the strength of a fourth-level warrior or above, which is not low.

With this kind of strength, Monte may not be able to hunt demons, but he can get a job in any Sky City to support his family, which is absolutely no problem.

If that's the case, why would he want to live in a city as small as Thunder Eagle City?

He had been to many medium-sized and large Sky Cities, and in those cities, he could make himself and his daughter live well, and there was no need to stay in Thunder Eagle City.

It's just that he thinks so in his heart, but he can't say it on his lips, after all, even if Rocky is the lord of a small city, he is still the lord of a city, and the difference in identity makes Monte can only express his thoughts as tactfully as possible.

"It's pretty much what I thought......"

But what Monte didn't expect was that Rocky didn't show displeasure after hearing his tactful answer, but smiled as if he had expected it.

Immediately after Rocky, he spoke: "Monte, do you think Thunderhawk City is too small?"

"My lord, I don't have ......"

Rocky's words made Monte shake his head hurriedly, and he would be a big fool if he nodded at this time.

However, Rocky directly waved his hand to interrupt his words, and then said, "Monte, do you only have such ambitions for your future?"

"I ......"

"Do you think that now you can only go to be a bodyguard for those little nobles, or find an errand in a union, that's all?"

Rocky's words made Monte stunned on the spot, and he didn't speak for a long time, because almost everything he thought in his heart was said by Rocky!

He just said that he had no plans for the future, it was all for the sake of perfunctory Rocky, how could Monte not plan for his future, don't forget that he is also a father.

It's just that his plan is indeed as Rocky said, preparing to go to a large sky city, and then become the guard of a nobleman in the city, and it is not difficult to do this with his ability, even if it is on the premise of breaking an arm.

He thinks that with his current conditions, it would be good if he could live such a life, and the money he earned as a guard would be enough to support him and his daughter, and he could even save some surplus, and when his daughter became an adult, he would find a good in-law for her, and his life would be complete.

That's what Monte thinks, there is no unattainable ambition, only reality.

But it was clear that Rocky didn't think so, so he then said, "Monte, it's true that you can't hunt demons, but it's not necessarily a bad thing for you, it's an opportunity. ”

"I want you to stay with me, and believe me, it's definitely better to follow me than it is for you to follow some minor nobleman. ”

"My lord, I ...... I really haven't figured it out yet. ”

Rocky's words were very straightforward, but they were also very sincere, which Monte could feel, and he was even a little moved, but it was a big deal after all, so he had to think carefully.

"It's okay, I also hope you can think it through before giving me an answer. Smiling at Monte, Rocky didn't seem to be in a hurry: "We will be in the Nightless God City in two days, and you can leave anytime and anywhere, and I will definitely not stop you." ”

"But I hope you'll wait and give me some time, because you'll see the changes in Thunderhawk City soon, and when that happens, it's not too late for you to make a decision. ”
