Chapter 1 Talks

If it is precise, the last demon Rayfa was not killed by Jack. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The demon that was in a state of rapid recovery was enchanted with the sharp thorn of the [Bright Nova] and plunged into his chest, and only then did he lose his life in the sound of burning.

After that, the four Nine Rings who chased the entrance and exit had lost the demon's figure, and the Shaping Mage used [Wind Listening (Eight Rings)" to retrieve the whole city, and unfortunately found that the demon's breath disappeared into a destroyed teleportation array under the City Lord's Manor.

The end of the event was not complicated, and the four Nine Ring Masters who were placed together by the demon were of course very unhappy, and they went directly back to the Arcane Council to apply for a hunt bounty, and the rich bounty made the entire Eitleta go crazy, and they went crazy looking for the hidden demon.

Naturally, Jack inherited their family's position as Lord of Ember City, but despite this, he still lived with his two sisters in the manor of the aristocratic district - not that he didn't want to live in a larger and more luxurious manor, but because the manor had been demolished by someone sent by the Arcane Council, and was completely uninhabitable.

A day later, the Arcane Council sent two Masters of the Nine Rings to Ash City, although their words were to protect the safety of Ash City, but Jack heard from Hugo that the purpose of the Arcane Council was actually to study the Reflection City left by the [Guardian of the Scales], and they wanted to master the magic that was forbidden by the magic as a hole card against the demons in the future.

"So, that's why you, the Master of the Nine Rings, came to my house for lunch, just to tell me what happened?" Jack sliced the steak on his plate, looking at Hugo, who was sitting directly across from him, the knight, who was more beautiful than most women, eating fried potatoes gracefully and shaking his head.

"Not really. Hugo said, "The purpose of my visit this time is actually to seek cooperation. ”

"Cooperation?"

Hearing Remy playing with a fork on the side, Jack hurriedly put on his brother's majesty and glared at the little girl, Remy suddenly pouted and glanced at Jack dissatisfied.

Hugo, on the other side, watched this scene and chuckled.

"What's wrong?" asked Jack.

"Nothing, I just thought of my little sister at home. Hugo said with some pride, "My little sister is definitely the first beauty in the Western Continent, she is much more beautiful than me......

"You also know that you shouldn't be so beautiful as a man!" Jack complained without hesitation, after so many tests and sorrows, Jack basically has the psychological quality of [he is strong, he is strong, and the bright moon shines on the river], coupled with the habit before the crossing, even if Tilfa has been rolling his eyes beside him, Jack will not care about it at all because the other party is a strong man in the Nine Rings - it is better to say that he is more bold and fat.

"Uh...... Your mouth is really poisonous," Hugo looked helpless with his eyelids lowered, "although the world often says equality, there are not many people like you who are neither big nor small." I appreciate that of you, keep it up, Earl, and I'll see the day when you get a bad temper and you get beaten to a pig's head. ”

"They won't be beaten into pigs' heads, people are masters, they are strong, they naturally have the stomach of the strong, they have read so many books, they have lived for so many years, if they are so calculating, will not let the whole world laugh at them?, in fact, it doesn't matter if they are really stingy, Hugo, you will help me, right!"

"Hehe, I will, I'll just stand aside and laugh. Hugo sneered twice and said.

"Tsk, I thought we'd be good collaborators......" Jack pouted, making a look of disdain.

"Tsk, why do I want to hit you so much?" Having said that, Hugo quickly raised his eyebrows seriously and asked, "My little sister is also exactly nineteen this year, are you interested in marrying her?"

"Huh, what kind of hyper are you?" Jack was taken aback, "Why do you ask that all of a sudden?"

"Because of the kiss and the kiss~ With this relationship, our cooperation will be smoother!

"I'm sorry, I refuse. Jack considered it for 0.1 seconds and did not hesitate to reject Hugo's suggestion, "As for the reason, we really can't afford the Heller family." ”

"What are you talking about?" Hugo looked at Jack with a look of surprise on his face, "Is it true that our Heller family is in high condition? No, what do you think is the situation of our family? I ask you, Earl, have you heard of the name of the Heller family?"

"Hmm...... I'm sorry, no!" Jack replied honestly, though embarrassed.

"That's right!" Hugo looked up and affirmed proudly, "You haven't heard of the name of the Heller family, have you, if I wasn't born in it, I haven't actually heard of it, because we are not nobles at all, our family is actually a very ordinary family of small merchants, so ordinary that I, as a knight, have to join the Arcane Council to have enough resources to advance to the ninth level." ”

"I seem to see what you mean......" Jack nodded in agreement.

"You understand, you understand how poor our family is, how much we need a chance to make a fortune~ My sister is going to study at the best affiliated academy of the Arcane Council, where the tuition is quite expensive! ”

"No, aren't you a ninth-level powerhouse?

"Huh?" Hugo raised his eyebrows and asked, "You also know that I am a ninth-level powerhouse, so you should know that I can only fight, right? I am very good at killing magic beasts? But how much money can I make by selling magic crystals and magic beasts? Do you know how black those big companies are? Do you know how low and high the price of their magic crystals is?"

Jack looked at Hugo and didn't speak.

Hugo was suddenly helpless: "Do you think that someone will send me money when I am lying down? But I'm not a gangster, okay? I don't charge protection money...... And I don't want to be someone else's pawn. ”

"But aren't you a pawn of the Arcane Council now?"

"Yes, but it's much more free than joining those big families......

"That's what you really want, that's why you're asking me to work with me and sell this?" Jack said, placing the rifle on the table.

"That's right! My connections, my force, our family's money, are my investments, ah, by the way, what do you think about marrying my sister?"

"Forgive me for refusing, I have no intention of marrying someone I've never met. ”

"What kind of strange idea do you have? My sister is very beautiful, really beautiful, but she can be a beautiful woman who can fall in love with the country!"

"You can see it, you can see it. But I still refuse, I don't accept an emotionless marriage. Jack swallowed a piece of beef, wiped his mouth, and asked, "How much are you going to invest?" ”

"Fifty thousand gold. Hugo opened his hand.

"How about you three and I seven?"

"How about sending your sister to us for five or five points?"

"Don't think about it! Now I'm starting to wonder what your sister looks like, why do you keep selling her?"

"You don't know the hearts of good people, I'm giving you a chance! When the time comes, don't blame the big brother for not taking care of you. ”

"Heheda, either four or six, or no need to talk about it. ”

"Okay, four six is four six, I'm optimistic about this thing!" Hugo nodded decisively.

"Deal. Jack nodded and put down his knife and fork.
