Chapter 43: Louis takes the bait and invites the Tinos to join the game



The receptionist's energetic face has begun to turn confused.

She originally thought it was just a tree demon, but unexpectedly it turned out to be the [Sewer Giant Rat Mission Plus Version].

I thought this was the limit, but I didn't expect Mr. Caesar to directly sweep all the newbie missions? So when Louis unceremoniously sat on an empty chair in the guild, many adventurers came to greet him.

Apart from the adventure groups, it is also normal for individual adventurers to work independently with other adventurers.

In the eyes of everyone in the guild, although this new adventurer named Caesar seems to be showing off, he seems to have great potential.

As for showing off...how many adventurers don't brag?

Even a 70-year-old lame warrior of the White Porcelain Class dares to claim that he has hunted a Asian dragon.

Not to mention that this Caesar had real combat achievements, which had been certified by the God of Contracts.

It's no big deal.

However, Louis ignored them.

He came to the guild today because he had something very important to do.

He felt that [Sin: Greed] was beginning to boil again.

Just as Louis was lost in thought, the bell at the guild gate rang.

A young girl pushed the door open at a loss.

It was Grace who came to the imperial capital with Louis last night.

With a panicked face, she was talking to the receptionist about her father, hoping to post a quest at the guild and find a few more adventurers to help search for her father.

She took out all the liquid funds available in her family, a total of 33 silver and 12 bronze, and earnestly hoped that the guild could help her find a few more people.

However, the receptionist shook her head in embarrassment:

"Madam, the number of adventurers that can be hired with 33 silver, even if the requirements are lowered to white porcelain level, is only about ten at most."

"If you ask for more, no adventurer will take your order."

There were even adventurers in the guild who started using foul language and humiliating Grace. Grace had never seen such a scene before and she was so anxious that she almost cried.

She frequently looked for help at the only adventurer she knew here.

"Mr. Caesar said that as long as I listen to him from now on, there is a high probability that he will help me rescue my father..."

Louis saw that the atmosphere on the first floor of the Adventurer's Guild had become heated up because of Grace, and even many people began to stick their heads out from the railing on the second floor.

It seems that some people have some bad intentions because of Grace's anxiety.

He took off his helmet, drank the tea that the receptionist had made for him, then stood up and walked in front of Grace.

"You want to save your father?"

Louis' voice was very cold, which made Grace a little confused.

This was not the impression she had of Caesar.

But she believed that Mr. Caesar must be a good man! So she lowered her head and whispered, "Yes, yes, sir."

Louis looked at the future Libra Saint quietly and felt the blood vessels in his body burning.

"Revenge her! Make her bend her knees for you, and let her share the pain of the guillotine!"

"Louis, make her pay back tenfold! A hundredfold! A thousandfold!"

"No, that's not enough!"

"You want to humiliate her severely, but also make her grateful to you!"

"You are greed incarnate, you deserve everything you want!"

Louis, whose face was hidden by the helmet, had a seductive smile on his face.

The power of [Sin: Greed] is skyrocketing! The fire in my heart is burning!

But the clarity in Louis' eyes was not affected. He lowered his voice and said in a deliberate joking tone:

"Adventurers also have to make a living and take risks. A price that is too low is a disrespect for our lives."

"You can find someone to save your father, but it's better to rely on my mercy than on the kindness of others."

Someone on the second floor whistled and shouted loudly downstairs:

"Why don't you follow this adventurer? He will give you some alms, and then you might become rich."

Grace felt inexplicably threatened by Mr. Caesar, whom she respected, and she looked up at him blankly.

Gossip from strangers isn't actually that harmful.

But the knife handed to her by the respected person made her lower her head.

Louis saw her expression and a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.

He whispered, "It's okay, it will be over soon."

So he raised his head and laughed, saying, "An adventurer's quest can't be cheap, but I like to have fun."

"Well, turn right when you go out, kneel down once you take a step, and kneel all the way along this road until you reach the statue of the White Tower Mage. I can pay for it for you."

"100 gold coins, enough for you to invite any adventurer below the title level."

"Go ahead, if you really want to save your father."

For a moment, all kinds of "WTF" sounds were heard.

The Adventurer's Guild is in an uproar!

"Mr. Caesar, are you telling me this is part of the plan?"

"If that's the case, I believe you."

Kind-hearted Grace felt much better when she realized that Mr. Caesar was not really going to humiliate her.

If this could really save her father, then...

As a child, why not?!

So she said, "I kneel!"

The situation was out of control.

On this day of November in the Stellar Year 11470.

The residents of Tino saw a scene that surprised them.

She was a girl wearing thin clothes, kneeling as she took each step, slowly moving towards the White Pagoda.

Everyone was shocked and curious about what was going on behind.

After asking, I found out about a pact of 100 gold coins made between a girl and an adventurer in the Adventurer's Guild in order to save her father.

The crowd watching the girl kneeling and walking on the long stone path with some discomfort lamented how difficult life was.

Even the Imperial Capital Newspaper Company near the road sent people to investigate the news.

A 2-kilometer road is not long.

But Grace was gone all morning.

But when she finished her kneeling agreement, Caesar left a message:

"You are a slut, don't blame others. I won't give you any money."

Then he disappeared amid the stunned and gradually angry gazes of the guild members.

That afternoon, when the news came out, most of the Tino residents in the city were furious.

They began to look for the playful adventurer Caesar.

Criticisms fell on him like snowflakes, and everyone was furious.

Some kind-hearted people also began to take the initiative to go to the Adventurer's Guild to post tasks, contributing a little to the girl's search for her father.

Even the adventurers who valued money more than anything else were enraged.

Many people began to break the bottom line, accepted the tasks at the lowest price, and even began to call their friends to prepare to go to Longgu Grassland.

Suddenly, Grace's trouble of finding someone to search for her father was solved.

At this time, in an attic.

The three members of the Cat Group and Grace gathered here.

Grace looked at Louis anxiously, the timidity on her face disappeared, and she said loudly:

"Mr. Caesar, I know you are helping me, but I just want to save my father. You shouldn't have to endure this!"

"I'm going to tell everyone the truth, I..."

Grace didn't realize what Louis was going to do until the incident broke out. How could she sit still? Louis reached out and hit Grace on the head with a finger: "Don't get in the way."

He came up with a terrible guess in his mind -

[If Grace's survival was not an accident but a necessity, then the creature that attacked Grace's family was most likely not a monster]

But no matter which diary it was, it was recorded that Grace's parents were killed by monsters.

The only ones who are afraid of the God's gift in Grace are those who spread chaos...

For example, the living dead they discovered this time.

But monsters like the living dead have no intelligence, and it is even more impossible for them to disguise themselves as monsters and hunt others.

——Unless they themselves are being controlled!

And Rimuru.

A bloodline slime cannot be created by simply feeding it a mouthful of dragon meat. Even if the entire dragon is digested, it may not be possible.

"Captain Alice, the Sapphire Dragon you're after... may not still be alive!"

"I have no evidence to prove this, and it is even more impossible for me to drag the royal guards to Dragon Bone Grassland without any evidence."

"After all, who can know the future?"

"So, let's make some preparations!"

"I can't bet that you are kind, but I can bet that you want me to die!"

He smiled at Grace calmly and said, "It's okay, I'm just joining the game."

Satisfy the great sin of greed!

Achieve Grace's goal! Target the mastermind behind the scenes!

One fish, three ways to eat it! I want them all!

"Besides, this was done by Caesar. What does it have to do with me, Louis?"
