Chapter 45: Louis, the chess player, makes his move at the center!



Arie, the receptionist at the Adventurer's Guild, was feeling depressed.

She encountered something that troubled her.

Previously, when she was hosting the guild's rising star, Lady Alice, she met an extremely handsome young man.

In the compartment on the second floor of the Adventurer's Guild, the afternoon sun shone on his face. Just by walking over and looking into his eyes for a few more times, you would fall in love with the boy's eyes, his lips, and his smile that was as sunny as an autumn afternoon.

——Then sink unconsciously!

When I came to my senses, the heat had already climbed up along my collarbone.

She had never seen anyone so handsome.

So much so that even the originally tedious errand running job has become a lot more diligent.

But what happened yesterday was really terrible.

She couldn't understand why Caesar would do such a thing.

This is simply intentional harm! The good impression in my heart suddenly disappeared.

Sure enough, her mother was right! Good-looking men can also lie! Just as she was worried, her companion called out from the front desk: "Ariye, the president is calling you."

"Okay, I'll go upstairs right away!"

"I'm sorry to bother you with this matter. My only request is to keep it secret, keep it secret, and keep it secret again!"

As soon as you enter the guild office.

Aliye heard a familiar voice.

"It's Mr. Caesar!"

She cheered up a little, but her expression quickly fell.

Pushed open the door.

She saw Mr. Caesar sitting in front of her own guild president, his eyes as calm as water.

"Ah, Ariel, you're here. I have something to tell you. This is Prince Louis, a big customer of our guild. He's here because of the farce that happened in the guild yesterday."

Aliye: ???

She subconsciously looked around.

I didn't find any third person except Mr. Caesar, and then I finally understood that Prince Louis the president was talking about was Mr. Caesar.

Louis secretly made a silent gesture to Arie.

Arieh said nothing and looked at President Hans.

President Hans said with a serious look:

"His Highness Louis is planning to issue a large-scale mission, Arie. The mission to be released openly is to "help the girl Grace find her father" and select mid- to high-level adventurers.

Tell them that this is a light and dark contract type mission, and the real mission is an exploratory and compound mission of "Exploring the Anomalies in Dragon Bone Grassland".

Remember, only adventurers above the Steel Level or medium-sized forces in the form of adventure groups are allowed.

Tell them clearly that this could be dangerous.”

Arie finally understood what this meant and looked at Louis in amazement.

No wonder he wanted to create a riot.

It turns out that the purpose was to conceal the true purpose of the adventurers going to Dragon Bone Grassland.

Wait, wait a minute! A terrible thought flashed through Aliye's mind.

From yesterday to today, the response of kind-hearted citizens who have posted messages asking "to help the girl Grace find her father" is too fast and too many.

It's not normal at all that many. It's as if kind-hearted citizens knew that the public opinion would erupt early on and arranged the tasks in advance.

It’s as if... as if someone is pushing it in the dark.

"Is that you, Mr. Caesar?"

Then, an even more alarming thought flashed through her mind: "So, Mr. Caesar has spent at least 200 gold coins to plan the Dragon Bone Grassland mission!"

"What on earth happened in Dragonbone Grassland?"

...Twenty minutes later...

After arranging the follow-up matters, Louis got into the carriage with a calm face.

William was waiting for him in the carriage.

As soon as he got in the car, Louis's face fell, and he tugged at William's clothes with tears in his eyes: "We've spent so much, so we don't need to spend any more, right?"

William said with a smile:

"Thank you for your hard work, Your Highness."

Louis rolled around wildly in the large carriage. It took him a long time to raise his head and look at William with burning eyes:

"William, hold tight the sack of gold I gave you! Don't let anyone touch my money!"

At this moment, his whole life seemed to be concentrated in his eyes, and he kept staring at the purse held by William.

"Are they still there? Are they still there?"

There was an anxiety in the voice that was difficult to conceal.

William said gently, "Yes, Your Highness."

"Tie your purse tighter and show me the cleanest coins! I want to see them!"

Then there were a lot of strange words like "big loss", "my little money", "only gold coins can warm the heart" and so on.

He lay down on the mat until he was completely exhausted, and said exhaustedly: "William..."

"Your Highness, what do you want me to do?"

"Just give me the purse. I'll feel safer holding it in my arms!"

Louis controlled his little tail to wrap around the bulging purse, but he still felt it was not enough, so he hugged the purse and the tail together in his arms.

Only then did he smile with relief and slowly fell asleep.

Louis, the addiction has struck again!

After Louis got out of the car listlessly, he finally saw Beatrice.

Beatrice looked at Louis and said, "You look particularly tired today."

Louis glanced around and confirmed that it was relatively safe before saying:

"The 6.45% of the small treasury is gone. I am so heartbroken that I can hardly breathe!"

Beatrice said with a smile: "The power of the great sin of greed is not easy to feel, it's not so easy to control this feeling."

"There's nothing I can do. I have to spend the money I need to spend!"

At this time, Louis' voice was already filled with tears.

It hurts! It hurts so much! Beatrice smiled and lifted his hair, whispering: "You've caused quite a big mess. If you go to Dragon Bone Grassland like this, I'm a little worried that you'll be hit by a club!"

"I'd better send you more Ravens! Don't be stubborn about some things. You can trust me."

Louis noticed that his first wife looked at him with a meaningful expression, and he coughed and said:

"Then I will refuse it disrespectfully."

Yes, another reason why Grace had to kneel all the way was to stir up public opinion and let all parties in the imperial capital see it.

Louis even carefully chose the spot where Grace knelt.

The headquarters of the Empire Daily is diagonally across from the Adventurer's Guild.

He was even worried that public opinion would not be able to ferment further, so he sent someone to notify the daily newspaper.

As we all know, even the emperors of feudal dynasties did not dare to say that they could do whatever they wanted.

The Emperor is still here! Beatrice has not yet ascended the throne, so there needs to be some reason to transfer people.

When public opinion rises rapidly to an uncontrollable level in a short period of time, some operations that were originally required to go through procedures can now be handled on a special basis.

——For example, we need to send some people to protect a prince who might be attacked by angry Tino adventurers at any time.

Although it seems a bit like kidnapping by public opinion, Louis is responsible for the safety of Beatrice and himself in the future.

So! Do it!

The Adventurer's Guild? The strong men above the Orichalcum level? How ridiculous these people looked in front of the Empire's strength.

Do you understand what "the organization is strong and terrifying" means?

Just look at what happened to William.

But he didn't expect that before he could "request" his first wife to send more people to protect him during his training, Beatrice seemed to see through everything and directly helped him to get people.

Thinking of this, a gentle smile appeared on his face.

It felt good not to be fighting alone! Louis felt relieved, and the grief caused by the damage to a few thousandths of the small treasury was also alleviated a lot.

"Beatrice, I will never let you die!"

Louis' eyes flickered for a moment, and he added in his heart, somewhat insincerely: "Protecting Beatrice is protecting myself! Yes, that's right!"

At this point, Louis had successfully laid out a triple back-up plan as expected.

An expectant expression appeared on his face.

Whatever happened on Dragonbone Prairie, there are gutter rats behind it!

——He’s bound to get involved in this game!

Land on Tianyuan!

Start killing!!!
