Chapter 203

Although Roque Town is a frequent haunt for the Viscount himself, he is fair and does not give benefits because of the special nature of this town.

From the outside, the dilapidated here is not much different from the town of Roque.

In the search for people's fat, the viscount has always treated everyone equally, and will never let anyone go because of who is poor and who is rich.

In the merchant's carriage, Lynn withdrew her gaze from the window and then looked at Haytz, who was cowering in the corner.

"Did you collect it?"

"Surprisingly simple." The merchant wiped the sweat from his forehead, ignoring Seth's puzzled gaze, and added, "If only it were a superficial image."

Lynn bowed slightly, "Please speak."

Haze gathered his thoughts a little, and said, "As you expected, the Viscount's reputation among the people is indeed not very pleasant."

"The reason for this is that during the seven years that the Viscount has been in charge of these three towns, he has not only to collect a high poll tax, but also to collect taxes on all kinds of necessities used by the people, and even to the slaughter of poultry and livestock, he has to share a part of his meat, which has caused everyone to resent, but because of the fear of the Viscount's twelve knights and forty guards, no one dares to show his dissatisfaction."

The three audience members in the carriage listened silently as the merchant described the Viscount's prestige among the people, their expressions differing.

Lynn was in high spirits, Miss Alyssa was calm and composed, and only Seth, the merchant's child, had an angry expression.

"That's a bastard!" He cursed.

No one denied him.

"We've got to find a way to deal with him!"

None of them paid any attention to him.

"Seth." The merchant sighed, "It's been half a year since we've been out, do you remember the people you helped?"

Seth was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously shook his head: "I helped them just by hand, why remember?"

"Whatever you want." The merchant said, "You gave a little beggar two gold coins last time, do you remember?"

"Remember....... What's wrong?"

"After you left, the little beggar was killed, and the two gold coins were snatched by the others."

"How so!" Seth looked shocked.

"There are many more such things, so I won't give examples of them all." The merchant sighed, "I just want to tell you that kindness is likely to make things worse without the ability to change the situation."

"For example, if this viscount is gone now, and he is replaced by the same one, won't the people suffer another sin - for example, just after paying the tax once, and paying it again."

Seth was speechless.

After a moment, he whispered, "They, why don't you run?"

"Run? Where to run? We can run because we have the money, they don't." The merchant smiled wryly and said, "They can't scrape together the money to buy a horse in their lifetime, and they've never heard of the teleportation array, so the world for their whole life is only these three towns, and there is nowhere to run."

Seth stopped talking completely.

That's when Lynn suddenly spoke.

"You'd love to save them?"

"Yes, but it seems like I can only think about it." Seth was frustrated.

"I can help you pull the current lord off his horse." Lynn said with a smile.

"Yes, you can help me......." Seth looked up, "Can you help me?" ….

His words were filled with disbelief: "Really?"

He didn't ask how to help, or why, his first reaction was that someone was really on his side?

- The blow given to him by reality made him not even believe that there would be someone to help him write a fairy tale world.

"Really." Lynn said sincerely.

"Not really." The merchant added.

Lynn glanced to the side, and the merchant obediently slapped herself.

Still, the merchant's reminder worked.

"You have a purpose." He said with conviction.

"Yes, I do have a purpose." Lynn admits to being honest too.

These will not fix Seth.

Shouldn't you be embarrassed for a while and then take the topic back when you see what you're thinking? Why do you still have to inch in?

Lynn smiled and said, "It doesn't matter what my purpose is, the important thing is that the goals of the two of us are similar, and if you complete my goals, your goals can also be accomplished."

"I don't believe it." Seth's gaze was slightly questioning, "Unless you tell me your purpose."

"That's not going to work." Lynn shook her head, "Just say you don't do it."

How is this possible.

The merchant pouted disdainfully.

First, the process was not clearly explained, second, the harm was not clearly explained, and third, the benefits were not clearly explained.

If you can promise this, there will be ghosts.

Our children are not stupid.......

"Good!"

"Smack—"

Several people looked at each other suspiciously.

The merchant took a deep breath against the red mark on his face, barely smiling.

"It's okay, but suddenly I think I'm a fool."

"Oh." Seth was not interested in his father's self-destruction, and he looked at Lynn again, "So what are you going to do, and what am I going to do?"

"Go up." Lynn complimented him, and then said, "I need you to gather all the people in this town by tonight and assemble at the town junction to the east."

"The town's ....... People?"

"The other two will do the same, if you can do it."

The other two are obviously unlikely, they are purely Lynn's teasing, Seth is not really confused about right and wrong, he does not respond to the ridicule that follows, only responds to the previous sentence.

"I can try." He said, "But I don't want you to lie to me."

Lynn smiled and didn't say anything boring like "I'm just lying to you."

"Don't worry." He blinked, "We're on the same path."

"For now." Seth himself made additions.

「........」

The merchant looked at the two of them and suddenly felt that he should not be in the car, but under the car.

I'm also a normal person, why can't I get along with the two of them?

Lynn is just that, after all, the family is wide and well-educated, but the one left is his own child!

Could it be .......

Hayes shuddered and shook his head.

"Click—"

The carriage stopped, and the coachman's voice came from outside.

"Master, we're here."

Several people got out of the car together, but did not enter the foothold together.

Lynn and Alyssa go back to the room, Seth runs to the side of the street because of Lynn's words, and the merchant tries to hold Seth, but finally shakes his head helplessly. ….

He actually wanted to stop Seth, but he didn't have that ability.

- He can't beat Seth.

In addition, there was no way to stop Lynn, so he could only let it go.

"So, why did I take this order?" He regretted giving himself a slap in the face.

........

Entering the room, Alyssa only turned back into Six the moment Lynn turned around.

At the same time, he appeared with the number two, who was wearing the same style of black robe.

"Young Master." Number Two asked, "Can we really do this?"

"Why not?" Lynn asked rhetorically with a chuckle.

Why not?

Number Two scratched his head.

From every point of view, Lynn's plan couldn't be faulted, but he just somehow felt that something was not quite right.

It's weird, but I can't put it into words.

Shaking his head, Two stopped thinking about it.

Think about it

It's not something they're supposed to do, as minions, they just have to be swung out and scratch others to death.

"Well, here we go." Two bowed slightly, disappearing into the shadows.

"Be careful." No. 6 said with concern, and he turned into Huaguang and fled.

He is a hunter, and he runs quite fast.

Lynn sat down on the bed, trying to do something, but not doing anything.

He didn't want to enter the sea of imaginary numbers, because once he encountered danger, he would be like a dancer standing in front of a strong man in his clothes at night, let others handle it, and he had no power to fight back.

But if you don't do anything, the seed of desire will have something to say.

Recently, Lynn's understanding of the seed of desire has deepened a bit.

He found that when he had something to do and his attention was attracted by other things, it was difficult for him to detect the desire generated by the seed of desire, and the more free he was, the stronger this emotion became.

"Gotta find something to do."

After thinking about it, Lynn decided to keep up with Seth and see how he would accomplish the task he had been assigned.

.......

Seth sat on an unattended vendor and looked at the broken bowl with flies hidden in front of him, lost in thought.

"What should I do?" He muttered.

Although it was very simple at the time, he didn't really understand how to proceed.

He just didn't want to miss the slightest chance to save these civilians.

Despite knowing that he might have been scammed, he didn't care.

"Anyway, it's not the first time, it's a big deal to beat him half to death." He clenched his fists, imagining Lynn's not-so-broad stature, thinking he was sure.

But in this way, it may be a little difficult for my father.

After all, he was going to do business with them.

Thinking of this, Seth shook his head, "Whatever he does, I'll let him die."

The merchant didn't like him as a child, and he didn't like the merchant as a father.

The merchant hated his excessive naivety and uprightness, and he hated the merchant's copper stench and soft waxy pillars.

After the merchant accidentally lost his ability, he only had one child, so he had to hide his gender so that he would not be discriminated against; Seth was forced to accept that he was really unable to support himself.

All in all, this is a father and son who don't get along in any way, but they have to continue to get along. ….

"He didn't stop me, he let me develop, and I thought that if I died because of this, he would be free." Seth thought darkly.

Father's property was left by his grandfather, who liked him very much and knew that his father didn't like him, so he asked Hayz to get all his property only after she got married.

Everything a businessman does is actually a last resort.

"Forget it, I don't want him." Seth flicked his head irritably, throwing the distractions out.

He held his face and looked out at the street where he could not walk one or two people for half a day, and his worry grew more and more.

"What should I do?"

"Do you call it directly?"

Seth turned to look at the waitress and proprietress who served him white water, "Boss, can you do me a favor?"

"What's busy?" Middle-aged woman with a formulaic smile on her face.

"That's it....... ....... at the intersection of the town tonight."

The smile on the boss's face disappeared, and the boss walked out from behind the stall with a kitchen knife.

Seth fled.

After running for a while, he sat down on a bench that was all that was left.

"Obviously, Plan A won't work."

"So, what else can be done?"

Sethmo rubbed his smooth chin.

He remembered his short life at the academy.

In the academy, there are always a few people surrounded by circles of people, which is especially popular.

How did they do it?

"Is your personality charismatic?"

Seth looked down the street at a little girl standing there with a depressed face.

Children should be easier to navigate than adults.

He thought so and stood up.

But just as he was about to walk over, he turned back again.

You can't go that way.

Seth looked around, found a store that was out of stock, walked in and bought a low-quality candy for a gold coin, and then left the store while the boss was looking for money, and came to the little girl.

"Little friend." He smiled a smile that he didn't think was too scary, "What's wrong with you?"

The girl's sobs froze, and she looked up at him, panicking and trying to back away.

Oh, I expected that.

He pulled out the candy.

The girl's eyes suddenly kept going, and she forgot to cry.

"Don't cry, here you go."

The girl turned out to be candy, and suddenly felt that this big brother didn't seem to be so ugly.

It really worked! I'm a genius!

Seth laughed heartily and praised himself.

Immediately coughed dryly, and let his expression return to normal.

"That." He whispered, "Child, why are you crying?"

"I, I just saw someone chasing someone with a kitchen knife, and I'm scared." The girl said timidly.

Seth's forehead twitched inadvertently.

"It's okay." He forced a smile, "They're gone, don't be afraid."

"Uh-huh!" The girl nodded vigorously and burst into tears.

"So, now if you have anything to do, can you do me a favor." Seth felt that he was only one step away from success, so he decided to take this step, "If I said I wanted you to wait for me at night at the town junction on the east side, you would ........"

"Come on! There are people here who want to abduct and sell children!

!」 The commissary owner with a pile of change shouted in horror. ….

"Da-da-"

Listening to the footsteps around him, Seth sighed.

.......

"Whew, whew—"

Leaning against the cold walls of the alley, Seth looked dejected.

In the abduction ...... Trick....... In short, after failing to ask the little girl to help, his life seems to have fallen into a trough, and he can't get up.

He tried everything he could in his head, but he couldn't think of a way to accomplish Lynn's mission.

"Is it difficult?"

"It's hard, it's super hard!" Seth complained to the question that came from the side, and then turned his head reluctantly.

"You, why are you here?" He looked at Lynn in horror.

"Overseer." Lynn's reply was simple.

".......," Seth shook his head angrily, "I can't finish it, you can do it yourself."

Lynn didn't react because of his anger, but whispered, "Actually, sometimes the solution to most things is very simple, it's just that people's thoughts are too chaotic, causing their eyes to be covered by thick fog and their vision to be lost, and they can't reach it for a while."

"I don't understand." Seth still didn't turn his head, but his tense body relaxed slightly, "Speak human words."

"The way to get what I asked for is very simple, but you didn't expect it."

Very simple?

Seth didn't believe it at all.

The people of this town didn't trust him at all, and it would be harder to get them together in the middle of the night than to get him to a party.

If he was given more time to think and try, he felt that it was a little more possible.

However, they are asked to bring them to a party tonight.......

Seth shook his head.

"I didn't expect that

I'll admit it, but it's simple......." he looked at Lynn playfully, "Come, tell me what to do."

Lynn smiled, and with a two-word sentence, Seth's whole person was like thunder.

"Give money."

96.
