Chapter 13: Lord of Wright
"I must not have woken up!" said Leach, his eyes wide, speechless in astonishment.
"Saya, are you sure you heard me right? She's talking about one Bailey a day, not a hundred!" Leach's bloodshot eyes reconfirmed.
"Benefactor, please relax, I heard you right, the grace of saving lives is greater than the sky, not to mention that there is a Bailey who also eats and stays, even if he works in the day, he is willing to eat!"
“...... Okay, you won!, but I have one condition, Saya, you must not talk as a 'benefactor' or 'below' in the future, just call me by my name and call yourself 'me' like a normal person, otherwise I will resolutely disagree with you joining!"
Saya frowned slightly, as if she was very unaccustomed to it: "En...... Captain, in the lower ...... I see, in ...... I'll make it right as soon as possible!"
Hearing her call herself "Captain" instead of calling her by name, Leach wanted to repeat it, but after thinking about it, it was much better than calling "benefactor" and "benefactor", and it was not too late to slowly correct the others later, so he let it go.
"Hehe, congratulations, I recruited a member of the team on the first day, Hoffman, I really didn't misunderstand you, you have to continue to work hard!"
Because of another repetitive task, the three of Leach had to wait for the arrival of the client, the city lord of Ambrera, at the branch.
Taking advantage of his free time, Leach also chatted a lot with the new joiner Saya, knowing that she was not a native of Ambrera, her hometown was in the territory of the Ribeiru Empire, she was a year older than Lena, and her dream since childhood was to be able to become a glorious knight. It's just that the national conditions of the Ribeilu Empire have always been dominated by men, and Saya is not valued at all as a daughter, although she is extremely talented, and she has reached the peak of the third order with only the unpopular exercises in her hands, but she still can't get the cultivation she deserves, and she can't practice the high-grade cultivation techniques, which is why when Leach met her, she could only fight with the pirates clumsily, and there was no martial art to use.
Because of the unfair treatment, Saya ran away from home in a fit of rage and came to Ambrera to become an insurance hunter.
At the beginning, Saya suffered a lot because she didn't know martial arts, but fortunately she accidentally got a broken bow and arrow cultivation cheats during a mission, and after learning from the pain, Saya resolutely gave up the long sword that had always been the main means of attack, and began to study how to better use the power of the bow and arrow.
It may be that the heavens are moved by Saya's persistence, and she is getting smoother and smoother on the road of sniper, not only successfully breaking through the third order, but now she has reached the intermediate level of the fourth order, and she is even more handy in doing tasks. If there was no unexpected situation in this mission, according to her original deployment, she could have easily wiped out all the pirates.
After understanding Saya's strength, Leach's eyes on Lena were always strange, a fourth-order intermediate sniper, he was fooled by her every day a Bailey, could it be that Lady Luck was her relative? Or is this the legendary fool who has a fool's luck?
In any case, the addition of Saya has solved the urgent need of the adventure group's lack of physical range, although Lena's dark magic is very sharp, but the shortcomings are also very obvious, that is, it is very easy to be avoided, and now with the addition of Saya, there are many more possibilities in tactical arrangement.
Of course, it is impossible for dark magic to have such obvious shortcomings, but because the current Lena cultivation is not enough, she cannot release more advanced magic, and dark magic is called the most comprehensive, offensive and defensive system, but it is not called in vain.
"Hehe, everyone's here!" a gentle male voice sounded as he laughed.
With the creaking sound of the wooden wheel, two figures, one tall and one short, appeared at the gate.
The one who spoke was a handsome man with long blond hair, about thirty years old, dressed in a moon-white robe, giving people a suave and elegant feeling.
The fly in the ointment is that the man is in a wheelchair, so that people who see it can't help but feel sorry for him, such a good skin is disabled.
Pushing the wooden wheelchair was a young woman dressed as a maid, and unlike Lena, the woman's maid outfit was an old-fashioned long dress, not the streamlined and sexy style that Lena wore that also took into account the battle.
The woman has short lilac lean hair, and her handsome face always has a gentle smile, just like the big sister next door, which makes people feel close.
The man in the wheelchair is the de facto ruler of Ambrera City, Wright Richard, and the maid woman is the servant in charge of the life of the lord of Wright, and Leach only knows her name as Leigh, but her surname is not known.
"Hello Uncle Wright, hello Sister Ali!" After seeing who was coming, Leach and Lena smiled and said hello, and Lena even ran forward to hug Lisa.
Taking the crutches handed over by Leigh, who was free from Lena's "entanglement", Wright slowly stood up. Don't look at Wright is in a wheelchair, but he is not completely unable to walk, but due to injuries, his legs and feet are inconvenient, if there is an urgent need to walk a long way, in order to save time, he will be pushed by Li in a wheelchair to send him, usually insisting on walking on crutches.
Don't look down on Wright because he's a cripple, you must know that what he is good at is not hand-to-hand combat, in fact, his legs and feet are not good enough to have little effect at all. When he first took over the position of the city lord of Ambrera, there were many unwilling people who did not want to accept the rule of a lame man and wanted to get rid of him secretly, but all the people who made the move personally understood the horror of the "controller", not only the killers and their employers who were sent out were not spared, but even those who hid in the shadows and indirectly contributed to the troubles did not escape, and after a bloody storm, Wright sat firmly in the position of the city lord.
It is said that when he was young, Wright had sound legs and feet, and he was not only gentle and elegant, but also suave, and was the dream lover of many young girls, but then suffered a catastrophe and left an irreparable wound on his left leg, which made him lame. That catastrophe seemed to be the fuse for the dissolution of the original "Golden Triangle" group, but what happened, Leach was not very clear, no matter how he asked, the parties concerned were concerned about him, and then Leach broke off the idea of continuing to get to the bottom of it.
The handover went smoothly, after all, both parties are very familiar with each other, trust each other very much, and do not worry about the other party's fraud. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Leach was about to say goodbye to Lena and go home to rest, but was stopped by Wright.
