Chapter 11: The Lord's Gift
The situation in the territory is not optimistic, what should be done now?
Whether it will be suppressed by force by all means, as suggested by his subordinates, or whether he will be an ostrich out of sight and out of mind, this is the question.
However, the lord is not an ordinary person, and he does not make multiple choice questions.
"Whether it's repression or maintaining stability, it takes money, where do I get the money?"
Vincent had already made it clear to his subordinates that he had no money, and the money on hand was enough to maintain daily expenses, and it was not enough to fight and Huairou.
Asking the demon king for money should have been the best option, but the demon king himself is also shy in his pocket.
Otherwise, how could the former lord who had left Vincent with a lot of trouble land land smoothly?
It is said that in addition to looting it himself, the vampire also gave him a small sum of money that the demon king could not refuse......
What's more, this group of blood clans is also an important supporter of the Demon King, and even the family members and the children of the Demon King still have marriage contracts.
Thinking of the marriage contract of the blood clan, Vincent had another headache, and simply stopped thinking about it.
If you don't fight or be gentle, can you just lie down and die?
The lord is worthy of being a ruthless demon man, and he said that the problem is not big, compared to those clueless things, it is the right thing to rub the toy first.
This kind of plaything is demoralized, and even the demons who don't like to use their brains can't stand it.
However, they are all subordinates who rely on contracts to maintain absolute loyalty, and they will not leave the lord because of his absurdity.
For those who laughed at him, Vincent chanted two lines of poetry at that time.
"The world laughs at me for being crazy, and I laugh at the world for not being able to see through it."
"Hello, System." Vincent said to the system, "Report Ninia's condition." β
Ninia Wald
[Race: Terran]
[Age: 16 years old]
[Condition: Good (normal physical function, weight gain, better development than before, slight sleep deprivation and muscle strain)]
[Mana Level: β β β (Excellent potential, but currently lacking guidance)]
[Skills: β β (Master a certain craftsman skill, such as looking at you to sharpen the knife)]
[Loyalty: β ββββ (In addition to being grateful for being able to eat enough and wear beautiful clothes, all loyalty to you comes from fear)]
β¦β¦
"System, let's get serious first."
"Roger."
[Love Play Index: 130 (If you are not too tired, the index can still rise)]
[Playful Potential: Lv3 (You still haven't satisfied her true interest)]
[Believer attributes: Believer? (Jumping left and right between believing and unbelieving every day)]
Looking at his own situation, Vincent decided that the time had come.
[Bonus Value: 2/40]
[Recovery time: 1 day]
[Next level: 50 (The god has decided!) After leveling up, the recovery time of the Apostle's protection value is reduced by 0.1 days)]
[Basic Skills: Lv1 (You have mastered the basic skills of all known craftsmen, and you can work with your hands without the help of tools)]
[Mastery: Ununlocked]
The reason for the increase in protection value is that Vincent thinks that in addition to the reward for playing with Ninia, it may also be due to the communication between the sΓ©ance Fes and others.
Asking others for your own work is definitely the best way to gain faith points.
The crafted items must not be too complicated, otherwise the protection value will not be enough.
After all, at present, Vincent is only himself, and he does not have the strength of mass production, so the protection value must be saved.
After several days of preparation, Vincent had already made a plan to increase his protection value, and found the items that he thought would save the most quickly.
The key to the successful launch of this project lies with Niniaya Wald.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you tomorrow morning." Vincent stretched and commanded Ninia, "You are now not only my toy, but also the lord's goodwill ambassador, and you have a great responsibility to be overlooked. β
"Yes, master."
Ninia bowed obediently, then breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Vincent stand up, thinking as she walked back to her own workshop-like cluttered room.
"I really don't understand this person...... Demon ......"
Seeing that there was no one else around, Ninia walked lightly to a huge bronze mirror by the wall, and looked at the young girl in the mirror wearing a white shirt with a blue ribbon, a high-waisted blue over-the-knee skirt, black silk sunstrings, and beautiful leather boots.
It's so beautiful, is this yourself?
Coming here, the lord Vincent not only did not abuse himself, but he did not even humiliate himself except when he was in front of his monster subordinates.
Not only do you have meat to eat, but you can also wear beautiful clothes, and live in the castle of the nobles, Dahaus, which is simply a life that only a girl dreams have.
The person who lives with him is a prince, although he is a demon, but it is undeniable that he is very handsome and his thinking is also very out-of-the-box.
Vincent was too busy to call her around, just tinkering with some small toys on his own, and then letting her experience and learn how to make them, and finally take the exam.
Every time he saw Ninia learn, the lord was as happy as a child.
Ninia was sure that his happiness came from the heart.
However, every time the lord's monsters were present, especially the lichs, Vincent's attitude would become stern, and he would not leave the word "toy" in three sentences, and all kinds of ridicule and ridicule her, and she would be almost like two people when she was alone.
After a long time, Ninia also seemed to realize that Vincent did not seem to do this because he liked to bully himself, but deliberately in front of his subordinates.
After all, in the demon group, despising humans is political correctness.
With the unique intuition of a girl, she found that the heart of the demon prince did not seem to be a demon.
It's uncertain if this is a disguise from the cunning demons, but Ninia isn't too worried about being sacrificed with blood.
Sometimes, she even felt a little proud that her lord needed her.
If the current life can continue, it is much better than the adventurers and witchers who are in danger of dying.
As the only human in the castle, Ninia has a new job in addition to being a maid - representing the lord and showing kindness to the inhabitants of the territory.
Because there are all kinds of demons around her, this matter belongs to her.
Even in the territory of the demons, adult Terran lords will not accept the kindness of the demons casually, so her main job at the moment is to give gifts to the children in the city.
As for a former silver adventurer and unsuccessful witcher, Ninia has never done negotiation work, but she has a good face and is not very old, which is very suitable for getting along with children.
Returning from the Temple of the Craftsman, the lord locked himself in his room for the whole day, and when he came out, he handed Lilia a small paper folded object and taught her how to use it himself.
"You have to copy this and show the kids as much as you can how to play, you have to learn, remember, the more people you get, the better."
Later, Vincent taught her more than a dozen techniques in one go, and ordered her to master it impeccably.
From the time of learning, the lord began to distribute toys to the people of the city, to be more precise, to the children.
Nearby papermakers and paper vendors made a fortune as a result, and the business grew, with the lords ordering large quantities of paper every day.
Something went wrong, and on the first day when the lord ordered free gifts to the citizens, no one dared to rashly accept them.
