Monday, ask for a stable dìng recommendation ticket,

In addition, Edelweiss is going to push it, although I really think his enthusiasm will not last long, but everyone too

Leader of the Demon King of the Otherworld

"I heard that" The dwarf obviously didn't notice the change in his companion's expression, in fact, most of his eyes were hovering over the trembling immortal 'fruit' of the hostess not far away, and he couldn't tell it at all

"Where did you hear that?" Edward's brow furrowed a little

The fact that he was attacked was not particularly covered up, but it was not publicized in a big way, as long as you have the heart, you can get relevant information from the case records of the Guò city guards, and among the general public, there may also be people who take the incident of a few homeless people attacking a mage's apprentice as a conversation after dinner, and in such a big city, the speed of this kind of gossip is not very slow

But will it be accurate to this process? Do you even know the name?

If so, then the matter is going to be much more troublesome than expected

"I sued him, Mr. Edward," replied a man close enough before the dwarf could speak—in fact, from the very beginning he seemed to have been sitting at the table beside him, but now he had only turned his face

He wore a brown embroidered robe on his slightly chubby body, the fabric was good, but it was just a little more expensive linen, and it didn't look much different from the ordinary people in this hotel who were chatting boredly or preoccupied with the bard's chants, but the pipe he was holding in his mouth, and a wisp of blue smoke was carved from a fine piece of jade, and the pattern was intricate, verdant

And his appearance is also ordinary, although his face is covered with knife-like wrinkles, and he has a very good-looking beard, which seems to have been full of vicissitudes, but it is difficult for people to remember deeply, only those light gray eyes are smart and flickering...... Just these sharp edges are enough to show that this person is not an ordinary person

Edward's gaze narrowed, but he didn't ask questions like 'Who are you and how do you know me?' as is usually the case

"I'm sorry to disturb your conversation, but please see the sincerity of my old man who came first, don't be surprised" The old man smiled and turned his chair around himself, sitting at their table, but after a pause, the other party's silence that was not surprised seemed to make him a little embarrassed: "Young man, you don't seem surprised?"

"Surprised, surprised by your presence, or do you have the knowledge of my whereabouts?" Edward raised the wine glass in his hand: "It is not particularly difficult to control a person's whereabouts, although Romante is not a small city, but as long as you have some manpower, you can still do it lightly, especially for someone who has not yet learned teleportation, and with the power you have, there may be some simpler methods, such as the prophecy magic cast by a priest?"

"Do you know who I am?" the old merchant tilted his head, his expression still calm

"Just a guess," Edward smiled, paused, and said, "You must be Lisa's father, the head of the Rinobiri family?"

"That's right," the old man nodded, "but it seems to be more than that."

"Actually, there is nothing," Edward continued, "You are a very successful merchant who controls a lot of the trade routes around Romandy, but you have more industries and more status than this normal business."

"That's right," the old man said, nodding

"It seems like you expected it," Edward said

"Why should I be surprised? For a powerful man who can easily escape surrounded by many enemies, a young wise man who can enter the magic academy, if he can't guess my identity based on his previous contact with my subordinates, my appearance, and those previous conversations, it is strange" The old man slowly exhaled a puff of blue smoke: "I like to talk to smart people, because it will save a lot of time"

"I'm not a smart person, a smart person wouldn't be found so easily" Edward shook his head, "and I don't know why you took the time to come to such a place to meet me...... I don't think it's going to be asking me to stay away from your daughter, right?"

"Of course not," the old merchant shook the pipe in his hand, and the smoke covered half of his face, leaving only that hazy smile: "You must have known for a long time, my daughter is not an ordinary little girl, not to mention, you have helped us a lot for free before, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid my daughter would have encountered a lot of trouble, and not only her, but some, well, my friend, it is also thanks to your help, that she will be out of danger"

"It's just a good time, and besides, I've been paid accordingly, so it's not a good helper" Edward ignored the little compliment: "It's not worth your work."

"How can a small reward be compared to life?, but it seems that if I don't give some kind of reason, you seem ready to turn people away?" the old man smiled, and puffed out a wisp of blue smoke, "Well, I can give you a reason, but until then, Mr. Edward, I want to hear what you think of the half-elf race."

"Half-elf, in this situation, how much of what do you think I say is my true thoughts?" Edward smiled

Edward didn't know much about the half-elves

Half-elves, though mostly now making their living in the human realm, are an absolute minority - never able to fit in with each race, and they always seem out of place, sensitive, suspicious, and withdrawn

Due to their natural ethnicity, half-elves have always maintained a loose social structure: they are neither united like elves and dwarves, nor do they have absolute numerical superiority like humans, and they are not in a high social position when they live in human society, and many rely on odd jobs to support their families, so to speak

Therefore, the social status of the half-elves is always not high, in fact, because of their embarrassing status, they usually do not get any land, and some handicraft workshops will naturally go to people of their own race when looking for employees - after all, they are easy to communicate and so poor, and they are always around the half-elves

So, in order to survive, they sold their last capital: life and body, men became robbers, and women became prostitutes...... The social status of the half-elves is decreasing more and more, and human beings are more distrustful of the half-elves and the half-elves are getting more and more undue justice, and more and more half-elves have embarked on the road of anti-society, and the vicious circle continues.

However, Edward did not want to make these general assertions:

"Although many people attack the problems of the half-elves, in fact, as far as I know, the half-elves have not only inherited the wisdom of the elves, their appearance and elegance and agility, but also have the strong fertility and adaptability of human beings and their lifespan.

"It's a rare ...... It's surprisingly rare, Mr. Edward," the wrinkles on the old merchant's face became a little denser, and he put down his long pipe and slapped it lightly twice: "It's rare to hear a human being say anything like that...... Fair and objective, especially for someone who doesn't have the slightest connection to a half-elf, and what is even more rare is that you are still so young"

"Just happen to know something...... But then I'm going to make a bold guess, I think you're one of those volunteers who are interested in improving the living environment of the half-elves, and your organization must have achieved something, right?"

"This organization in your mouth is called the Half-Blood Society...... You basically already know our purpose, and our accomplishments, to be ashamed, are actually only a fraction of what the half-elves can get now compared to when we founded the organization forty years ago" The old man picked up his pipe again, burying his face in the pale blue smoke, but Edward noticed that there were some honorific words in the other man's tone,

"But it doesn't seem to have anything to do with me?"

"No, it should be said, a little related"

"People who are friendly to the half-elves, even sympathetic, are also the objects of our solidarity, and Your Excellency's actions are in line with this, so we can nominate you as our guest...... It is not a formal position, nor is it subject to most of the rules of the association, but it can call on some of the resources and manpower in the association" The old man blinked: "In addition, although the old man has no other strengths, fortunately, he can be regarded as a thin asset, I heard that Your Excellency must have many needs when studying in the Mage Academy...... If you need to, you might as well ask, I think, a few thousand gold coins, it shouldn't be a problem."

In fact, Edward was not short of gold coins, and some of the weapons he had now produced, as well as the magic handouts he had copied, could also make up for this amount if they were to be sold, after all, the items suitable for combat were very expensive

But on the other hand, the old guy's wide network made Edward a little excited-after all, the trouble that might be caused by the growth of the half-breed would not need him to think about it, but if he wanted to find something, a large and organized group was obviously much easier than running around alone, and with his current strength, there was an organization behind him to rely on, and he always had to feel more at ease

"Well," after a brief moment of thought, he said, "The half-elf's plight is indeed sympathetic enough, so I'll see if I can do something about it, but I'm not interested in wasting my time with those who do what they do,"

For the enemy, Edward did not reject treating each other with courtesy and subduing people with virtue...... But if virtue cannot be satisfied, you have to use a stick and use a stick, and you must not be soft

Chop the grass without removing the roots, and the spring breeze blows and grows

Facing a large guild, he, a small mage apprentice, naturally did not have the ability to kill the door and wipe out all of them - according to Edward's original idea, he naturally used the right path to restrain himself, such as using the power of the Lansendel Church, or using the identity of a mage to mobilize the city defense army to organize an encirclement and suppression

But he also knows that both methods are difficult to implement

The heads of the holy warriors are too rigid, they can't act, but before they can act, they must first have certain evidence, just suspicion can't let them make a move, even if they know that the other party is doing evil behind a wall, they have to send someone to negotiate first, and then they can rush in and arrest someone

What's more, if they have been swept away, those so-called thieves and the like will all be confiscated, which is unacceptable to Edward

And the city guards ......

Such a place can be saved, naturally it is produced by peace with the local government, and there are intricate spheres of influence hidden under the deep water surface, without a certain force, the city defense army will definitely not give a single star and a half cooperation, even if Edward leads a group of holy warriors to the other party's lair, maybe they can only pounce in the air, and even the city defense army and the like will run to block it

In any era and in any society, there are gangsters and gangsters, but in the same way, no matter when and where, these guys cannot compete with the military and police, and after stripping the legitimacy of the regime, the latter is the biggest **

"What you want...... ?". (If you like this book, please bookmark biquge.info)

Watching the young man leave thoughtfully, the merchant let out a puff of pale blue smoke and began a quiet round of long exams

It wasn't until the last spark in his pipe was extinguished that he let out a long sigh and stood up and walked into some small door on the side of the room

The cunning of the old businessman's face was gone, replaced by piety and reverence...... Awe took the majority of it, and he took a deep breath before pushing open the door in front of him, shutting it tightly as he entered, then discreetly fell to his knees, burying his head between his arms

"My Majesty...... Your will has been carried out, and although he is a little suspicious, he will not have any doubts yet."

In front of him, a slender figure sat on the windowsill, one hand on its cheek staring at the silver moon in the sky that seemed to be within reach

A dim starlight surrounded her, and the long golden hair that shimmered like fireflies in white fell down, shrouding her young face in shadows and making it impossible to see the expression, only the thin ears showed between the blonde hair, and the slight flutter with the breath was made

In the room, a bouquet of incense was lit in the stove in the shadows of the moonlight, and the blue smoke rose from the incense, as if it had magical power, constantly changing, sometimes converging into a rose, sometimes forming a giant dragon, and finally turning into a seven-point star, and then gradually spreading into a shadow like a light veil to make the whole space dreamy......

It wasn't until the hourglass on the table quietly leaked a scale that the thin cherry lips opened up and let out a low murmur

"It's an excuse or an inducement...... Next, try to meet his requirements...... Find a way to keep him with me."

The voice was ethereal and low, as if it had come from afar, but to the listener, it weighed more than 10,000 pounds

"Yes...... But...... My Majesty, it's not easy, I mean...... This person...... He is not an ordinary mercenary, he has a considerable ability to resist temptation, and my ability may not be enough to control the situation" The merchant's voice came from his arm, trembling, dull and funny: "My Majesty, I beg your pardon for the foolishness of your people, can you tell me all the special value of this person...... This I ...... We also know the direction of our actions, after all, he is only a human being, and we ...... before your power is known to more of your people."

"It doesn't have to be so careful, either"

The girl's gaze turned back from the silver moon in the sky, sweeping over the kneeling merchant, a pair of eyes in the bright moonlight but so dark, like an infinitely deep cave, as long as you look at it, it will make the soul lose in it: "It's just that the little ghost, there is a rather interesting toy, but it is a little troublesome to get it, so I have to get it myself, as long as I have contact with him for a while, there should be no problem, not a big deal...... Okay, you go down."

The merchant exited the room as if he had been pardoned, and the girl's gaze turned to the moon in the sky again, and after a long time, she chuckled: "I just thought that thing had long disappeared into the multiverse, but I didn't expect it to still exist...... Well, then it's up to me to control it, and by the way, what it represents......"

"Hmm, don't hurt him? Hehe, you seem to like this human very much...... Don't worry, I don't want things to go too far, if I can...... Well, I promise...... I will not cause him harm, and if necessary, I will solve the troubles that arise around him......"

Someone once said to Edward that the whole continent has now entered an era in which each profession has its own organization

The most obvious is the broad syndication of the guilds, which are called "brotherhoods", "basic friendship societies", "associations", "alliances", etc., and are spread throughout the continent, whether in the cities or in the countryside, not only merchants, sailors, artisans, painters, teachers, actors, hunters, peasants, but even beggars and executioners have their own guilds
