In the second week of Annan's return, he issued his third decree: the Ministry of the Interior established a devil's notary department, where all trade could be contracted free of charge.

But before it was enacted, Annan ran into a wall with Olmedo.

"I'm against it." Olmedo said.

Annan replied: "I agree." ”

"I'm firmly against it." Olmedo said seriously.

Annan said loudly: "I strongly agree! ”

Itilia sat on the sidelines and looked at the two of them with a light smile.

Olmedo persistently asked, "Give me a reason." ”

"Devils are rich."

Olmedo was speechless.

"It's up to you to give me reasons."

"My reason is very simple, the devil and we are not all the way, we can secretly cooperate with them, but we should not let everyone know in the open." Olmedo said what she thought, "A lot of big people hate demons and ghosts, and if they are too deeply involved, we will be labeled. ”

Olmedo has no problem with the future Annan wants to build, but there are a few more evil camps in Liberty City...... Let's not talk about the scarcity of rat people. Goblins, orcs, vampires...... This somewhere between chaos and evil dominates.

Annan calmed down: "You mean that we need a 'good race' for a hedge?" ”

"That's not what I meant...... But if you can do it, you can. ”

Annan immediately thought of the elves - what could be more representative of truth, goodness and beauty than the elves?

"Who is leading the envoy group of the Elven Royal Court this time?"

"A High Elf Sage."

"They've visited so many times...... Can you let out some wind? ”

Annan thought for a moment and used the leaves of the World Tree to contact Teddell.

"It's just propaganda for the words of the emissary corps." Teddell did not refuse Annan's request, "Those moderates need a pair of hands to push." ”

Annan asked her again what she thought of her cooperation with the devil, and Tydel unexpectedly opened: "Annan, why do you think the elven court has taken a fancy to Liberty City?" ”

"Because you fancy me?" Annan was embarrassed to say this to the elven elders, and thought, "Because of the potential of Liberty City? ”

"And your attitude towards other races."

"I see."

In this way, "Voices of Freedom" will publish the news of the Elven Emissary Corps and the cooperation of the devil at the same time in the new issue, and finally helped Beludona win a position.

Annan asked Claire to follow Beludona, and he would create an opportunity to help her become a regular.

As for her younger brother...... From beginning to end, Annan did not pay too much attention to the Mad Dog Grand Duke.

The first case at the Devil's Notary was when two residents quarreled over trivial matters and broke the flower pots of one of the houses. This kind of thing could have been handled by the guards, but Annan took it as an opportunity to pull him to the city lord's mansion and let Beludona sign a good devil's contract with "compensation for flower pots within a limited time".

"You don't have a culture of being ridiculed for the value of a contract you signed in hell......

"Normally, no...... Beludona worried. Once this kind of thing is known to other devils...... Will he become the most humiliating devil in the past 10,000 years?

Annan explained: "It's setting a model that as the news goes, your performance will continue to flow." ”

……

The release of the new issue of "Voices of Freedom" that the people of Middle-earth have been waiting for, and the news that the Elven Court has sent an envoy to Liberty City is like a forbidden spell falling on Middle-earth, causing an uproar.

The forces of Middle-earth have been digging around, and have learned that this is not even the first Elven Mission—they have visited Freetown four times before.

It was almost certain that the Elven Court was seriously considering their first ally in 10,000 years.

The last time the elves formed an alliance was back in the World Calamity and the Ancient Wars...... For what this time? The Elven Court has sensed a new world calamity?

It can't be for the Champion Warlock, right?

On the same day, the empire even sent a team of emissaries to ask if Annan had any resistance, and they would help solve it.

And the "establishment of the devil's notary office" hidden in the inconspicuous layout is only noticed by the people of Liberty City.

This is exactly what Annan needs: after all, people from other places can't come to Liberty City to sign a contract...... At least not yet.

Here's a win-win:

The Devil's Contract has always been criticized for its professionalism: as a treacherous evil race flowing through their bodies, they also engrave "deception" in the depths of their souls, and even the great mages will accidentally fall into the trap of the Contract.

How to describe the professionalism of the devil?

We can't talk about things that don't exist.

That's where Olmedo's concerns come from. If Bedudona harbors evil intentions and hides traps in all contracts such as "the souls of both parties belong to him", people will only curse Annan after the accident.

Olmedo's confidence stems from the fact that so far, Annan has not misjudged...... Even the nezumi he believed in lived up to his trust.

After a day in Liberty City, where she took a few images to be published in Voices of Liberty and returned to hell, she asked Claire, Lias and Gelman to take turns acting as the Devil's Notary.

Those small contracts that she doesn't like are divided among the apprentice devils themselves, and when they encounter a slightly larger contract, they take out her devil contract.

Liberty City provided the people of the city with a stable, effective magical contract, the apprentice devil got the results, and the big business went to Beludona.

Annan's gain is undoubtedly the greatest: in addition to the Devil's Pact itself, Beludona has time to continue to work for him in hell with magical images.

Throwing all the turmoil of the Elven Mission to Olmedo and Editria, Annan's attention returned to the situation in the north.

If you have the opportunity to look down from the sky above the continent of Allen, you will see the rat tide in the north slowly but surely approaching Middle-earth like a ball of cotton wool......

After all this time, I don't know if Jerry with the Grey Rat Priest has stayed away from the battlefield.

……

If the rat tide in the north is coming together from all directions and rushing to the tributaries downstream, then one of the streams is swimming upstream.

Tens of thousands of slave rats received on the road were clustered in the outermost area, and near the center of the team were hundreds of elite rats guarding the artisan rats, and at the core of the team, a champion rat in a red cloak walked in front, a gray rat with a gray robe sacrificed, and behind it were thousands of slave rats carrying huge rat mothers and shouting slogans.

"Lord Grey-haired Mouse, we are not far from the nest that the High Priest said."

"Get out of the way."

The gray-haired rat priest said indifferently and the elite rats around him.

After they moved away, the Grey-Haired Rat Priest's tone softened: "Jerry, I need to go to the nest capital ......"

"But I want to protect you, Philos......" Jerry said softly.

The eyes of the gray-haired rat priest flashed a trace of struggle, but he still made a decision, and said detachedly: "I command you to ...... as a priest"

"You have to go."
