"The evil sorcerer murdered the king when he arrived at his loyal city-state. But now that the king has returned from hell, the flames of vengeance surround him, and he is determined to reclaim what is rightfully his. ”

Annan looked at Michael who spoke in a low voice.

"Andrew Luna taught you that?"

"I deliberately asked Luna to teach me." Michael handed Annan a copy of the list, "But that's what many people really think." The Twelve Kings of the North, who had been robbed of their throne and life, had crawled out of Hell to take the most brutal revenge on those who had murdered him. ”

"What is this?"

Annan took the list and saw many long lists of obscure names, which was a test for Annan, who had not learned the lingua franca for a long time.

"Nobles, tycoons, and professionals who will come to visit you later, who are on your side or who bet on you."

"Are there any master professionals here?"

"Nope. Unless you're in big trouble, a master professional doesn't need to take refuge with someone else.

"Can I use my wealth to entrap the master like the southern nobles?"

"Masters are rarely short of money...... However, the caster may not be killed. ”

"I think it's easy for mages to make money......," Annan said, such as perceiving the Philosopher's Stone. Even if you copy the magic scrolls, there are dozens of gold coins each.

"But we spend it faster."

And Annan has a deep understanding of this - it is only the most basic meditation of the spell caster that makes his former self unable to make ends meet, and he is only willing to use low-level magic materials.

"But after you show some more abilities, there should be some master professionals who will take refuge."

"I wasn't prepared for ...... at all"

"It's okay, you can think slowly." "You can even create a wonderful future for them to sponsor and then take all the money and move it somewhere else, like to the South." As long as you have money over there, you can let the enemy call you father, let the elves call you dear, let the orcs be your little brother, and let the dead come back to life. ”

"What about the Reeves family?"

"Anyway, all you have left is the honor of the Twelve Kings of the North." Michael said casually, glancing at the clock in the corner, "Prepare yourself, the first rich man to visit should arrive later." ”

Annan and Michael left the study and went downstairs to the living room. He said to the elderly maid, "Some guests will come to visit later." ”

The estate was the family property of the Wine Lady, who gave it to Annan and sent a maid to take care of Annan's daily life—as the king of the north, he could not continue to huddle in the attic of the spinning mill.

Not long after, the head maid, who had been waiting at the gate, returned to the mansion and said that the first guest had arrived.

"Let him in."

Annan looked at Michael who was still here: "Do you want to stay?" ”

"Of course I'm going to be involved in such an interesting thing."

"Will it cause you trouble?"

"No, it won't."

Absolutely safe bystander, Mage Tower Mage, Michael said proudly: "The position of the Mage Tower is Breeze City, so in Breeze City, no one can harm the Mage Tower. ”

It's hard to associate the youth in front of you with the drunken man who borrowed a drink to kill his sorrows in the dilapidated Dawn Tavern two months ago.

Annan acquiesced to Michael's presence and allowed him to stand behind him.

"Annan's face was engraved with lines that showed fortitude and composure, and those black eyes were full of melancholy, and from time to time there flashed a cold light full of hatred."

"What are you doing?" Annan looked at Michael who suddenly muttered to himself.

"Set off the atmosphere, and I'll shut up when people come." Michael replied, continuing the trick he had learned from Andrew Luna: "He sat outside the window on a sofa where the sun didn't shine, his silhouette shrouded in shadows......"

Annan ignored Michael's narration and looked at the list. The first name is Melche Neville, and the identity is that of a gem merchant.

Soon, he saw a carriage parked in the garden, and the maid leading a middle-aged man with a goatee into the parlor.

"Venerable King of the North." The middle-aged man followed an ancient ritual to pay homage to Annan.

The ensuing exchange was not a good habit for Annan – because Melche Neville always quoted scriptures and praised the ancestors of the Reeves family.

Because Annan is just an impostor, he can only listen mainly. And this kind of listening made Melche Neville mistakenly think that he was recognized, and he wanted to talk incessantly, and touted Annan's unmodified "hillbilly accent" as an ancient heritage of the king of the north.

Finally, the satisfied Melche Neville offered a bag of gems,

This bag of gems is worth almost a few hundred gold coins.

It seems that the pit is abducted and deceived to make more money than normal inventions.

Soon, a second guest arrived and brought an oil painting worth about 100 gold coins.

But Michael says they weren't determined.

"Why do you think so?"

"It's like cotton yarn condenses into cotton threads, and only when they come together can they form strength."

If they really want to take refuge in the King of the North, they should bring something more practical.

"They are not stupid people, the reputation of the twelve kings of the north is worth their refuge, but it is not worth their ruin."

"Why do you suddenly look like you know a lot about the nobility?"

"You've got the Wine Lady, and I've got Andrew Luna."

Before the next guest arrived, Annan asked, "What happened to Martin and Soluman Copperbeard?" ”

"The former Luna takes good care of you, and the latter how do you think these nobles got in touch with you?"

"Soruman Copperbeard? How did she do it? ”

"Copperbeard is now the distributor of the Wine Lady in Breeze City, and she invited them in passing when she was giving wine to the rich and nobles. By the way, the owner of the publishing house hasn't come back yet, but your book is selling well. ”

The guests on the list arrived one after another, and the meeting room gradually became lively, and they talked to each other. During this period, there are also families who hope to marry Annan-

The maids bring the prepared food and wine to the table, forming a small banquet.

Michael left early because of something. After almost all the people on the list arrived, Annan was ready to join the banquet.

At this time, an old man who was not on the list arrived.

Annan sensed that he was a powerful spellcaster. How powerful is it...... An ant can't see a rock, and it can't see the top of a mountain.

However, Annan and this old man of unknown origin had an unexpected and happy conversation.

Some of the old man's incisive guidance made Annan suddenly enlighten his cognition. The idea that Annan does not belong to this world also found the old man amusing.

For example, the old man felt that the aristocracy occupied most of the wealth, but never paid for it.

"How can you say that!"

A down-and-out nobleman whose name Annan did not remember suddenly indignantly accused the old man, causing many approvals. Because the people standing here are aristocrats.

"Your father, Holm, was abandoned because of this selfishness." The calmness of the old man's old face made the down-and-out nobleman close his mouth in disbelief.

Annan took the opportunity to ask politely: "May I ask Your Excellency?" ”

He felt that the opportunity to fight Olmedo was in the old man.

"Olmedo."

The old man said gently.

"Augusta Olmedo."
