Chapter 18: The Ink Chrysanthemum Turmoil
Following Agent Roconnor back to the Eastern Security Station, the two received a series of documents signed by the director, marking the successful completion of the mission.
After simply tidying up the meter, Bruno went back first. Yare was more troublesome in this regard, and had to ask an agent to straighten his head into an inch board, and look in the mirror, well, more like a bad guy.
Riga bought clothes and waited until the afternoon, when Areley said goodbye to the agents and rode to the obelisk.
After handing in the mission with Bruno, because of the Imperial Commendation, the two not only increased their credits by five, but each also received a reward from the Emperor of the Academy, a silver Flame Medal, a certificate of honor, and a bounty of 10,000 soles.
After graduating from the Obelisk, ordinary apprentices will receive the title of knight, and according to the practice of the Empire, the titles are combined and promoted, and the two will automatically receive the title of Lord after graduation. This not only marked that the two of them made a lot of money, and since then they have squeezed into the ranks of the nobility.
Having received such a rich reward, Bruno was obviously a little unable to hold on, and Xia Fei's cheeks danced and he couldn't stop at all. Yalei, who couldn't stand it, was dragged to the deep-water training ground, and since then he has been replaced by deep-sea phobia.
Beverly and Alcia soon return to the academy as well, and the mission is barely completed, supposedly helping Dr. Goblin find rare goblins in the Proponty Mountains, where Beverly's secret chamomile cookies come in handy.
Because of their complementary personalities and the fate of fighting together, Yare and Bruno became friends, and often went to the battlefield area to fight, and no one could kill each other, so they won and lost each other.
The study of alchemy, the tempering of fighting spirit and the blade of the body, Yalei has always been in the most important position, and he does not dare to slack off a little. Occasionally, in my spare time, I will look for some flower planting.
Inside the Alchemy Proving Ground
Ya Lei stood in front of the real table with his eyes closed, concentrating, constantly hinting to himself that there could be no fluctuations in his feelings, slowly drawing his mana out of the sun imprint, and suddenly opened his eyes:
"ΠehΠΈe!
On the tabletop, a briquette floats with green light on the surface, slowly cracking and splitting into two small briquettes.
"The spell was successful!"
Overjoyed, Areley was about to try the fusion spell again, but was stopped by Professor Halbert on the side:
"You've cast too many spells today, and it's too much for you to practice again, and learning to stop in moderation is also a way to cultivate. β
He then drove the boy out of the alchemy testing ground.
After confirming that Aree was gone, Professor Halbert picked up the two briquettes on the table, his old face was full of pain, and he said to himself, "What a waste, an apprentice knight, why is he so talented in alchemy?"
After being kicked out, Yalei didn't care, every time he studied alchemy by himself, the old man would definitely make trouble, he was used to it.
"Forget it, relax and go to the flower market. β
Like Amber and the others, Yalei was more or less influenced by the Lord of the Four Seasons of Flowers, and he was a lover of flowers. As long as he has free time, he will go to the market to buy rare flower seeds, and buy them back to plant them at any cost, and the sunflower is the choice.
In the flower market, Yalei picked for a long time and decided to buy a rare black chrysanthemum, and after some bargaining, he was about to buy it, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice in his ears:
"Lady Rolua, only this tulip is worthy of your beauty. β
The voice resembled Rena, and the young man looked back and saw a beautiful young man wearing a white tuxedo who was seven or eight points similar to Rena, trying his best to recommend a pot of tulips to the middle-aged lady next to him.
Take a closer look, there is still an essential difference with Rena, if Rena's temperament is straightforward, then the guy in front of him is smooth and full of fat and powder.
Eloquence is not a grade, the tongue of the lotus coaxed the female companion to giggle, and the other party, under the offensive of his sweet words, quickly obediently paid a lot of money to buy tulips of average quality.
Who is this? Yalei was more curious than ever.
"Sir, sir, do you want to buy it?" the shopkeeper who had been waiting for a long time was not satisfied.
"Buy, of course. Yalei hurriedly apologized and paid.
The shopkeeper counted the amount of banknotes, nodded with satisfaction, leaned over and said softly:
"That little white face is Roddy, who often brings a lady with money to buy flowers, and there are kickbacks. Shiro has a good skin, often fools around in bars, and it is said that he also has a sister who studies in the obelisk, and I don't know if it's true or not. β
"Oh......" Yalei narrowed his eyes, could this guy really be Rena's brother?
After a moment of payment, Roddy had already put the noblewoman into a carriage, and then stood there and waved his hand, waving goodbye in tears.
After being sure that the concubine was gone, Roddy couldn't wait to run to the flower shop that sold tulips, asked for his own kickback, and left triumphantly.
Holding Mo Ju, Yalei silently followed, he desperately wanted to know if this guy who was obviously eating soft rice was Rena's younger brother.
If Roddy's eloquence is a master, then his alertness must be that of a child, and he was watched by Yalei all the way, unexpectedly unnoticed, through several streets, and then squeezed into a bar.
The bar's half-hidden door exudes the excess, and the smell of tobacco and alcohol is mixed with the cacophony of frolic and music.
Yare hesitated for a moment, then followed.
As soon as the boy entered the bar, he was dazed by the flow of people, and finally found a sense of direction, and Roddy's figure had long since disappeared into the crowd.
Since the owner of the flower shop said that he often hangs out in bars, there should be many acquaintances.
At the bar counter, a woman in a black dress caught his attention.
"Hi, beautiful young lady. Yalei leaned over with Mo Ju in his hand and snapped his fingers towards the counter:
"This young lady's next round, I please. β
"I'm Veriti, you want to soak me?"
The woman smiled ambiguously at him, this kind of man who looked strong and full of danger signals was the type he liked the most.
She wore the kind of arm gloves on her arms, but she only brought one, a messy and beautiful burgundy long irregular on her shoulders, and thick black eyeliner on her eyes, which was both seductive and seductive. One hand gracefully held the goblet and handed it to the red lips like blood.
"No, no, I just wanted to ask if you know a young man named Roddy, who is very handsome. β
Yare licked his chapped lips and admitted that the woman's allure was a bit too big for him.
"Man, you invited me to drink for a man. Veritti's enchanting face showed a look of disbelief.
"I'm just curious about him, I don't have any special ideas" Yalei didn't want to be regarded as a criminal by others, so he quickly explained.
And his gesture, in the eyes of women, has become another explanation, especially after noticing the ink chrysanthemum he is holding, the look of surprise disappears, and what follows is a look of sudden realization.
"Bring me a cup of iced tea. Veriti snapped her fingers, her cheeks flushed, and she hooked her fingertips:
"You're interested in little Roddy?"
"It's a little interested......" Yalei thought the other party was asking strangely, but he didn't know what the fault was.
The bartender pushed over a cup of iced tea, and Veriti raised it up and drank it down, and said in a seductive voice:
"Really, I didn't expect you to be a good man. β
"Of course I'm a good man, what's so strange about that!" Arei was so moved that he almost cried, and when they first met, almost everyone thought of themselves as bad guys, except for a woman in the bar, who thought she was a good man. Why do you have to know each other when you meet!
"Don't worry, I'll help you. Veriti leaned over and said something to the bartender, then covered her mouth and smiled.
Yaregan waited for a few minutes, and a burly, bald-headed man came over, glanced from top to bottom, and asked tentatively:
"Sir, are you looking for little Roddy, do you need a private room?"
"That's right. The boy didn't expect Veriti to be so thoughtful, so he thought about it and agreed:
"Well, let's arrange a private room, but I hope someone disturbs. β
"Don't worry, don't worry, there will definitely be no one to disturb you!" The bald man nodded, rubbed his hands, and showed an embarrassed expression:
"But the cost is ......."
"What! He saw that I wanted money!" "Yalei was furious, that thing was really a good family, and he wanted to make money.
"You are indeed very strong...... the bald man glanced at the other party secretly, and paused:
"But Roddy ...... Well, I don't usually associate with men......"
"No, I can pay for the box, he asks for money, wait until I see him!"
"This ......" The bald strong man once again showed a look of embarrassment, noticed that Veriti on the side was slightly chinned, and then readily agreed:
"Okay, please come with me. β
Consciously successful in the bargain, Yalei held the ink chrysanthemum and followed the bald man to the backstage proudly.
