"Wait. ”

When the crowd dispersed, and Leon was about to go back with the crowd, Crystal suddenly stopped him.

Although he wanted to leave here immediately and find a quiet place to deal with something, the female speaker could not fail to respond to his request.

So when he found out that the other party's target was only him, Leon handed the dimensional bag to Kaka and asked him to take the members back first, while he followed the female speaker into a small room.

To Leon's surprise, the black-haired girl he had seen twice before was also inside, sitting on a bench, quietly reading a book.

Krystal found himself a chair to sit down, and beckoned the young man to sit down with him.

Then "Little Lori" asked with a smile, "Captain Leon, are you quite satisfied with this reward?"

"Of course I am satisfied!" Li Ang hurriedly said, "To be honest, if you add a bag of materials, it has exceeded my expectations. ”

"That's good......" Crystal tapped his hand lightly on the armrest, as if he had something to say.

Li Ang had always wondered about the other party's intention to leave him alone, and when he saw His Excellency the Speaker's appearance, he muttered even more in his heart.

"You've done a good job this time, so you deserve this reward, don't be too modest," Crystal finally spoke.

Then she continued: "These are just rewards on behalf of the entire council, last time I said I would give you a special thank you gift, remember?"

Of course Li Ang remembered, but he had always thought that a bag of alchemy materials was a special thank you from the other party, wasn't it?

Does that mean that His Excellency the Speaker has prepared one himself?

Li Ang's sitting posture immediately became upright, and he nodded solemnly, but his heart blossomed, waiting for the other party's next words.

Cristal's gaze swept over the black-haired girl who was looking down and didn't know if she was reading a book or distracted, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and she said, "So...... Linda, don't pretend anymore, come here. ”

The dark-haired girl slowly closed the book and stood up and walked over to Krystelle.

"It's ......"

Leon's puzzled gaze shifted from Linda's face to Christel's, and then back again, and after repeating it a few times, a bad premonition rose in his heart.

"This is Linda, she ...... Regarded as one of my juniors, a second-order fifteenth-level mage, he has talent and potential, especially a good personality. ”

I guessed it...... Li Ang's forehead was slightly sweaty, this special reward turned out to be a big living person from the fortress? What the hell does your old man think?

And...... This rhythm like a blind date introduction is going to make trouble!

"So, instead of being a burden, Linda is very helpful for your future development. ”

It's getting more and more like...... Li Ang hurriedly raised his hand to speak, "Your Excellency, Speaker, I'm sorry to interrupt you!"

"Supposedly I shouldn't have refused, but I'm leaving the City of Chaos in a day or two, and I probably won't be back for a long time, so isn't it ......?"

"What does it matter!" Crystal looked indifferent.

"Since I'm relieved to leave Linda to you, it's up to you wherever you go or what you do, unless you don't want to or she wants to leave. ”

"Wherever you go or what you do?" Leon looked at Linda's slightly drooping face, silently accentuated the pronunciation of one of the words in his heart, and then almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood.

However, Katarina's "heroic appearance" immediately appeared in his mind, so Leon said casually: "Isn't this okay?"

"Huh?" the Speaker's voice lengthened, and she raised her head to look into Leon's eyes, "Isn't it that I sent a big living person, or my junior of Christel, and you can't shirk it like this?"

"How can it!" Li Ang turned his words, patted his chest, and said in a big way: "Linda, as the leader of the Dawn Mercenary Group, I welcome you to join, and we will be our own people in the future!"

The black-haired girl had hung her head slightly, unable to see what her expression was, but when she heard Li Ang's speech, she raised her head to look at him, and then turned her face sideways.

However, judging from the curvature of the corners of her mouth, she should be laughing at the young leader's attitude of reversing before and after.

"But ......," Leon looked at the black-haired girl, and then stopped talking to the female speaker.

"Linda, you go outside for a while, and I'll talk to Captain Leon alone. ”

I have to say that this female speaker is very eye-catching, and in front of Linda, this sentence makes her say much better than Leon said.

When there were still two people left in the room, Li Ang finally stood up and asked, "Your Excellency, of course, Linda is no problem joining my mercenary group, and it can even be said that I am indeed short of spellcasters, but can you tell me the real reason for this?"

Of course, Leon didn't believe that the other party casually stuffed a big living person over as a so-called special thank-you gift, there must be some intention implied in this, so even if he would offend Krystelle, he wanted to find out, otherwise it would be very inconvenient for such a character to suddenly appear in the mercenary group, and it would be very inconvenient to speak and do things.

Of course, the Speaker of the House of Representatives also understood Leon's concerns, and he admired the fact that this young man would directly say what he thought.

"Speaking of which, the fact that Linda is a special thank you gift is actually a joke of mine," Chrystal said slowly, "She is the descendant of a friend, and she has been wandering alone in a foreign country after some events, and I happened to get the news on my way back from this long trip, so I brought her back by the way." ”

"Ever since she became an orphan, her personality has become very indifferent, especially these days with me, she doesn't even talk much, and every day she knows to sit and read a book, which makes me very worried. ”

"When I met a young man like you, I thought this was the character she should have, so I came up with such an idea. Of course, I also specifically inquired about your experience and the causes and consequences of your six-member mercenary group, and finally made this decision. So you don't have any psychological pressure, I just borrowed my identity and let her join your team, as for what happens in the future, it depends on how far your team can go. ”

"But ......" the speaker raised her eyes to look at Leon and said, "The most important reason for me to make this decision is still you. ”

"In just over a month after the collapse of your family, you can be promoted from a first-order adventurer to a third-order warrior of the second order, and you can transform from a gentlemanly little nobleman to the current steady, brave and resourceful mercenary captain, a person with rich experience like Kaka can be attracted to you, Eric, a former gangster leader can also work under you with peace of mind, and the promotion speed of other members is second only to you, this makes me very curious. ”

"So, I also want to see how far Linda will grow under you. ”

After listening to the words, Li Ang felt a little emotional. It was a little surprising that a fifth-order super powerhouse was so dedicated to his friend's child, and at the same time, Crystal had such a high opinion of himself, which also made him excited.

"Well," said Leon, "in that case, I understand, and in order to thank Your Excellency the Speaker for her honesty, I will treat her as if she were any other person in the future, and will not be treated as special because of your relationship." ”

Krystal was very happy, and this sentence showed that Leon did indeed have more insight than other peers.

"Yes, that's exactly what I was hoping for. ”

Krystal stretched out his right hand to Leon, "Captain Leon, I hope to see you next time, you have become a strong man who can take charge on your own." ”

Li Ang bowed slightly and shook his hand with the other party.

"Then, I'll take my leave, and as for the list of remuneration I brought, please help supervise it. ”

"Don't worry, they don't dare to play tricks on this matter. ”

Krystal personally sent Leon out the door, explained a few words to Linda, who was waiting, and then watched the two of them leave.

The first witch of the soothsayer stayed for a while, and then suddenly whispered, "Even you can't see where this young man's fate leads...... It really makes me curious. ”

The figure of the fourth witch Serra appeared from behind her, "yes, that's why Monica misjudged the shape. ”

"Actually, Monica never knew that you had studied much more in this area than she did. ”

Sierra shook her head, "Prophetic powers are the hardest to master, and I can only say that I have only scratched the surface. ”

The two of them whispered to each other as they entered the room and gently closed the door.
