(Third Update.) Well, I'll admit that the chapter title is a bit of that stuff. ）

―――――――――――――――――

Late at night.

Civilian residential area in the 11th district of Roland City.

Ninija, the proprietress of the Bunny House Tavern, dressed in gray and black assassin attire, was sitting in Dead's small room, reporting to him the details of the intelligence transaction half a month ago.

“...... The three hundred and ninety-eight Eye Demon Monsters and Elemental Monster habitat areas provided by Your Excellency the Second Leader, all the verification processes that our Alliance has completed, according to statistics, are nearly seventy percent accurate. Ninety-two other areas are misinformation, fifty-two of which are areas inhabited by other monsters, and the other forty are barren areas. Therefore, Your Excellency the Second Leader ......"

"Can you please call me some second leader? Hede couldn't help but make an opinion.

For the situation that there was a lot of misinformation in the monster habitat area he provided, Hade had been mentally prepared for a long time, after all, what he knew was information a few years later, and some of the information was indeed a little vague. In addition, the Warcraft clan will migrate habitats for various reasons, or be wiped out by other races, etc., so it is actually normal to have a lot of mistakes and omissions.

The black-haired proprietress nodded solemnly, and the two soft rabbit ear-shaped auxiliary ears that resembled a double ponytail hairstyle swayed slightly under the back of her head: "Then use the black juhua code name prepared for you by the leader as a title." ”

"Black Ju Hua?" Hade was dumbfounded, "That, can you change the code name?"

"It's a tradition of our Guild, and if you want to change your codename, you have to ask the leader for advice in person. In addition, my own code name is Dong Ju. ”

"Forget it, you can move on to the situation of intelligence trading. Hide waved his hand, he didn't want to disturb the poor female elf who made people feel sad for her because of such a trivial matter.

"Of the accurate information that has been verified, eighty-seven pieces of information have been sold to various well-known hunter teams in the empire, and thirty-five pieces of information have been sold to a few crystal core merchants with private hunting teams. According to the reminder of His Excellency Heijuhua, the information sold is relatively low, and we suspended the intelligence transaction for about ten days after that, and sure enough, an anonymous big businessman proposed to buy out all the relevant information at one time. ”

"How much did he bid?"

"One hundred thousand platinum coins. ”

In addition, he was asked to pay the entire amount at once, remember not to track down the businessman's backers, and try not to expose the information of the alliance. "Hide knew that with the current strength of the Golden Chrysanthemum Alliance, it was not possible to participate in too complicated and huge battles, and it was the right way to take the opportunity to make enough profits to stop immediately, so he had to remind them in order to avoid trouble.

"Understood. Then zuihou is about the division of the black juhua lordship. The total amount of these information transactions is close to 160,000 platinum coins, and according to the prior agreement, His Excellency Heihua can get forty percent of them ......".

"Oh, I need to exchange this money for crystal nuclei as much as possible, this is the type of crystal nucleus I need, since some of them are relatively rare, they are rarely sold on the market at the moment, so I still need you to make a bounty type commission to get it. Hade took out a piece of cotton paper, on which were written the names and quantities of crystal nuclei of more than twenty different types of demonic beasts of different levels.

"Other crystal nucleus types are okay, isn't it a little difficult to ask for this slime crystal nucleus, slimes above LV30 are already uncommon, and slimes with LV50 are ......", Ninija looked at the list and couldn't help but ask the question.

"Well, so I'll also provide some high-level slimes that may exist in the area, you take out some people to verify this information, and then resell it to the hunters who receive the bounty task, go around in a circle and earn them again, you should know how to do it in terms of specific operations, I won't interfere. ”

“...... It's good. The black-haired proprietress was a little speechless, of course she understood what Hide meant, the bounty tasks issued by insiders of underground organizations like them would themselves take a cut from the hunters who accepted the missions, and now they were selling information related to these missions in a circle. In this way, it is tantamount to the double exploitation of those poor laborers, which is really a despicable but very common intelligence operation method.

"Alright, we're done talking, you can go back. Hade frowned, rubbed his left hand, and gave the order to evict the guest.

"Your Excellency," Ninija casually glanced at Have's left hand, "Due to the incident in which you were injured a month ago, the leader decided to send some good men to protect you secretly, do you have any requirements for the selection of people?"

"Protection?" said Ved for a moment, "just arrange a few clever ones." Well, an assassin of your type is the best, in short, don't choose one that sees me and my companions go out of the city to hunt monsters for actual combat training, and stupidly jump out to help. ”

After Ninija left, Hade continued to habitually knead his left hand, and it was now one of his habits to rub his half-crippled left hand from time to time.

It's been a month since that battle with the elven druids in the territory of the Amazon family, and this month is not long, but it is not short, but a lot has happened.

First of all, Head was given the title of Lord of Honor.

The reason, of course, is that he slaughtered an elf, and he is also a high elf of the seven-leaf class, which is testified by the three dukes of the Sakitrius family, so Hade "ascended to the sky in one step" to obtain this title that looks pleasing to the eye.

However, this title is actually not that remarkable, because it is not an official noble title in the Olympian Empire, but only an honorary spiritual reward for commoners who have made considerable contributions. To put it bluntly, many outstanding soldiers who have killed or captured elves in skirmishes with the Elven Empire have mostly received this title.

So Have's status hasn't changed much, although he has been promoted to LV80 citizen because of that feat, but for Have, it makes no difference.

Head was still very happy with the title of this honorary lord. Because of this title, he no longer has to worry about his own etiquette, except in front of the imperial empress and some formal occasions that pay attention to etiquette.

Don't underestimate this, in the Olympian Empire, most of the nobility paid considerable attention to etiquette, as it represented a clear class relationship. Commoners must maintain a respectful attitude towards the nobility and must not behave rudely towards the nobility. This was a legal provision that was explicitly enshrined in the imperial statutes.

There are often such episodes in online YY novels before Hede's crossing: the civilian protagonist who is not a fart may be more able to fight, and he can trample on the ground in broad daylight without scruples or even aristcounts and marquis and kick them like dead dogs, and these nobles can't help him, so they can only swallow their anger and let him kick casually.

If this kind of super bloody situation happened in the Olympian Empire, tsk, it's really hard to say who kicked whom, anyway, this protagonist will definitely be directly cut into pieces by the guards sent by the Imperial Heraldic Academy. Do you really think that the face of the aristocracy is so worthless? Is it possible to shake the relationship between the upper and lower classes that have a bearing on the importance of the ruling power of the state?

In short, because after obtaining the title of Lord of Honor, even if Hede meets a big nobleman at the duke-level on ordinary occasions, he does not need to do those very complicated aristocratic etiquette, of course, the etiquette of stroking the chest is still necessary. This honorary title was originally set in consideration of the fact that many civilian soldiers who have made meritorious contributions do not know much about the complex aristocratic etiquette.

Of course, Hede was very uncomfortable with the very troublesome aristocratic etiquette, such as the tone of speech, the way he used words, the way he stood and sit, and in short, he had a big head when he thought about it. Although some of the nobles he is currently in contact with are not very approachable in this regard, the aspiring Hade does not want to offend some nobles because of such a small problem as etiquette.

Now with the title of Lord, who is called half noble, even some minor ceremonial faults do not hurt.

Rubbing his left hand, which had a faint hint of consciousness, he looked to the door, where he could already hear the footsteps of the silver-haired female apprentice.

"Mentor, the bath water is boiled," Des reminded as she opened the door, and she raised her hand to gently wipe the beads of sweat from her forehead, "Let me help today." ”

"Hmmm......". Anyway, it's not the first time, Hade nodded, stood up and prepared to enjoy the mandarin duck again again.
