54. High-ranking boss

Do you all walk like this?

Lloyd sneered in his heart, and secretly opened the [Investigation]

【Ding~Probe Completed】

【■■■■■■■■】

Good guys, is it okay to get out of the garbled code?

Lloyd remembered that the presiding judge was just '?? It's not so exaggerated.

This shows that Randolph the butler has a configuration such as anti-reconnaissance and anti-snooping, which may be some kind of supernatural ability, or it may be a [holy relic], or a small portable ritual.

Lloyd didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly greeted him and said:

"Long time no see, Miss Desda, I am ...... to have your coming."

He wanted to say something decent and polite, but Miss Desda made a bold move, gave him a courtesy hug, and then said with some amusement:

"I didn't think I would see you for half a year, and you would be polite to me? Is it that he has entered the Inquisition and has to keep his distance from us ordinary mortals? ”

Lloyd was suddenly embarrassed by what he said, and hurriedly explained,

"Uh...... No, no, I didn't mean that, I just ......"

Everol on the side also hurriedly said:

"Little Yi, he just wants to be more mature in front of Miss Desda."

"Poof~ I'm teasing him, don't you always protect him like this? ...... will make me jealous."

Miss Desda smiled wickedly, and pinched Everol's soft cheek vigorously before turning back to Lloyd and saying:

"Okay, no kidding, congratulations on your promotion, Lloyd, you really won't disappoint."

Randolph, the butler on the side, also approached at the right time and handed over a delicate gift box.

"Young Master Lloyd, this is a promotion gift prepared by the young lady for you."

Lloyd took the gift box and hurriedly said:

"Mr. Randolph, don't call me that, just call me by my name."

The housekeeper's speech and demeanor have always been humble and polite, his posture is very low, and he uses honorific titles for everyone, Lloyd didn't understand anything before, and he didn't feel anything when he was called 'young master' twice, but now the situation is different, and he can't stand this kind of title.

The butler smiled kindly, looked at Lloyd's uniform, and replied:

"Okay, it seems that Lloyd has learned a lot from the Holy Inquisition, and he has completed [Enlightenment] so quickly, and he is worthy of being a young talent who is valued by Miss."

Lloyd didn't notice any signs of inspiration touching him, but he felt that his strength in the open was almost known to the butler......

Fortunately, he shouldn't be able to see through the [distortion] system behind it, after all, even the Veto Sage can't detect anything unusual.

"Okay, let's sit down and talk."

Ephrol beckoned everyone to take their seats.

During the next banquet, everyone first chatted about Lloyd's recent situation, and naturally it was still the same set of rhetoric of 'reporting good news but not bad news'.

Miss Desda believed it and encouraged Lloyd to keep going; Randolph, the housekeeper, kept smiling slightly, probably seeing through it or not.

The topic soon turned to the hot topic of 'great development', and during this time, whether it was newspapers and radio stations, or after tea and dinner, they liked to talk about this.

Lloyd, however, had no sense of it, and he only read the entertainment section of the newspaper every day, so he could only listen to Miss Desda's conversation:

"My dad is very interested in that side, he started to invest in the layout early, and he also wants to take my two brothers and a few uncles with him, if Lloyd didn't enter the Holy Inquisition, I would have recommended you to work on my brother's side......"

Miss Desda's father was a well-known real estate tycoon, and she must have been particularly active in the grand development, and even she herself looked eager to try.

That's why she pushed Lloyd to choose a civil engineering major.

But the housekeeper reminded him in a whisper:

"When the big development officially begins, you may have a little harder over there."

"Hmm...... I'll be ready. ”

Lloyd nodded.

The great development is to go to the wasteland outside the current sphere of human influence and open up new cities and resource points, which is destined to be a long, vast and arduous process, which will inevitably face countless dangers and require a huge investment of time, manpower and material resources.

So not everyone is optimistic about this kind of thing, and there are countless opponents, thinking that the current life is already quite good, so why bother to waste money and money?

Prior to this, mankind has carried out many large-scale explorations, and there have been countless small-scale explorations to expand the scope of cities and open up new resource points, among which there have been successes and failures, and it is difficult to argue about the merits and merits.

But no matter what, mankind has finally established the six giant city circles that are today, and have the capital to live and work in peace and contentment.

Even if Lloyd didn't pay much attention to this big development, he didn't object to it.

Of course, I don't take the initiative to participate, and I don't feel even more indifferent to the words advertised in the newspapers as "a great opportunity for young people" and "open up a big stage, and you will come if you have a job".

I went out by myself, what should my sister do?

Soon, after a hearty dinner, Miss Desda dragged the Lloyd brothers to dessert and continued to chat in a high-end dessert salon she founded.

It soon turned into two ladies sitting together, holding the latest issue of a fashion magazine, and occasionally giggling.

Lloyd sat next to the butler and wanted to ask for advice, but his eyes always fell inadvertently on the lap of someone else.

Although the butler's sitting posture was straight and elegant, Lloyd always felt as if his lower body was empty......

The butler didn't seem to mind this too much, smiled, and said indifferently:

"This is the price I paid for the seventh detachment."

Lloyd was stunned when he heard this.

The seventh? Seventh-order boss?

You seem to be called an 'ascender'?

Every time a transcendent completes [detachment], even if he is promoted to a rank, people correspond to each rank, and they have a general name-

For the first time, after completing Enlightenment, he will be called the 'First Glimpse';

the second time, 'the seeker', the third time, the 'explorer', the fourth, the 'practitioner';

Fifth, 'Transcendent', Sixth, 'Guide', Seventh, 'Ascended', Eighth, 'Substitute';

And the ninth time is the 'Holy One' where the Holy One is.

Although Lloyd had also felt it before, this gentleman butler, who was as reserved and humble as himself, should have a high rank.

Normally, the fifth order can be called a high-ranking powerhouse.

It's just that I didn't expect that the butler was already a seventh-order, and he was only two steps away from the Sage.
