Only after making the printing shop owner understand the seriousness of leaking the contents of the monster encyclopedia did Annuo walk out with satisfaction.
"Remember, print the things I give you first. I'm going to meet the Viscount now and will be back in a while. I hope you can deliver the goods by then!"
"Don't worry, Lord An Nuo. Five thousand copies will only take two hours!"
An Nuo walked to the street and summoned a level 6 wind wolf.
“Ouch!”
After the wind wolf appeared, it howled with its neck raised, then lay down beside An Nuo meekly.
It had been badly injured in the battle in the town of Gruul.
After returning yesterday, Annuo asked the city's senior priest to treat it several times before it recovered from its injuries.
Riding on a level 6 wind wolf, Anno rushed towards where Viscount Renault lived.
The speed of the wind wolf is much faster than the carriages in the city.
However, the wind wolves running on the street made pedestrians on both sides a little frightened.
If there wasn't a person sitting on it, proving that the Wind Wolf had an owner, they would have prepared to report the case to the guards.
This is why Annuo did not release the harpy.
Otherwise, someone might think that monsters are attacking the city!
When he came to Viscount Renault's castle again, the guards guarding both sides of the castle already knew Anno.
"Lord Anno, please leave your pet outside!"
A guard stepped forward, ready to lead the wind wolf away.
Although they knew Anno, the guards would never let Anno bring the ferocious monster into the Viscount's castle.
"No!"
An Nuo got off the wind wolf and waved his hand gently, and the wind wolf disappeared in public.
"This..." The guard who was halfway there looked back at his companions, feeling a little overwhelmed.
They had heard that An Nuo was a summoner, but this was the first time they saw a summoner's methods.
If a magical beast like the Wind Wolf can disappear and reappear next to Annuo at any time, doesn't that mean Annuo can also summon the Wind Wolf in the castle!
"Please wait a moment, I will go and inform you!"
The guard bowed to Anno and turned to go into the castle.
After waiting for about five minutes, Anno saw the figure of Viscount's butler Scott walking out quickly.
"Annuo has been waiting for a long time, please follow me!"
After saying that, Scott made a "please" gesture.
Arriving at the reception room, An Nuo saw Viscount Renault who was already waiting there.
"Hello, Lord Anno!"
When An Nuo stepped into the reception room, the blonde maids standing on both sides bowed to him.
When he saw the faces of the two women, An Nuo felt somewhat familiar.
When the two women bent down and bowed, revealing half of their snow-capped peaks, Annuo suddenly remembered.
"Maria, Athena, long time no see!"
"Oh, I didn't expect you knew the names of the two servants." Viscount Renault, who was sitting in the main seat, asked with a smile while motioning Anno to take a seat.
After An Nuo sat down, he chuckled and said, "They both work diligently and attentively, and their service is thoughtful. They left a deep impression on me. When I left last time, I specifically asked the housekeeper for their names."
When she had a nosebleed, Maria was considerate enough to wipe the blood for Annuo and let Annuo feast his eyes.
An Nuo would naturally not forget such a careful and attentive maid.
He even wrote about maids in the "Other World Strategy Manual".
Viscount Renault smiled a smile that all men understand, pointed at the two women and said, “I heard that your Adventurer’s Guild hired two women to be in charge of the front desk.
Now that I have conferred heroic titles on many adventurers, there will surely be a large number of people following suit and going to the Adventurer's Guild to register as adventurers.
The two front desk staff may be overwhelmed, do you need me to ask them to come over and help you?"
An Nuo's smile froze for a moment, but then returned to normal.
He looked directly at the Viscount's gaze and smiled, "Thank you for your concern, Viscount. Although my people are a little bit stupid, they can still handle the work. Excellent people like Maria and Athena should naturally serve you, Viscount."
“I see!”
Viscount Renault picked up a piece of cake from the table and put it into his mouth, saying casually: "Then if you need them in the future, just tell me."
"Of course!"
While An Nuo agreed, he secretly cursed Viscount Renault as an old fox.
Are you sending two maids?
According to the information Scott had obtained before, the two maids were only five years older than Laura, and they had received a good education since childhood and grew up with Laura.
This is to be cultivated as a confidant.
Let them both join the Adventurer's Guild?
Even if it’s not what I’m going to eat in the evening, you can always know the menu first.
Although An Nuo is a football fan, he would not put two other people's cameras at home.
However, when Anno saw that Viscount Renault did not force it, he also understood that the latter still wanted to cooperate more for the time being.
This is just a small test.
Viscount Renault felt very comfortable when he saw Anno's standard smile.
He just wanted to give Annuo a warning, and he didn't really want to attack the Adventurer's Guild right now.
Yesterday at the city gate, Annuo "forced" him to be crowned a hero, which made him extremely unhappy.
Viscount Renault knew that Anno was somewhat dissatisfied with him because of the events in the town of Gruul.
But he wanted Annuo to understand that the Adventurer's Guild could only develop slowly with the support of the Viscount.
If it weren't for the Viscount, Annuo might have been kicked out by mercenary groups of all sizes in the city on the first day of its opening.
"Let's talk about business!"
Viscount Renault waved his hand to let the two maids go down, and said to An Nuo: "Do you have anything to add about the battle in Gruul?"
Although Viscount Renault learned about the situation of the battle in Gruul Town from Mayor Lea, Brooke, and Mavis.
But Mayor Ria has always been with the townspeople, either staying in the town center or running away with the townspeople.
Apart from the final cleaning of the battlefield when he and his men were busy, there was basically no useful intelligence.
As participants in the war, Brooke and Mavis knew more about the situation.
For example, the number and quality of monsters.
When Viscount Renault learned from the news bulletin the day before yesterday that the number of monsters that attacked the town of Gruul was not only over 200, but also that a quarter of them were above level 6, he thought that the achievement was falsely reported.
It was impossible for the professionals in Gruul town at that time to repel such a monster army.
However, both Brooke and Mavis insisted on saying so.
When Anno came back, the monster corpses unloaded from the carriage also proved this.
Renault learned from the two people's reports that the key to this victory lies in Annuo.
This summoner was initially considered dispensable by Rodney and the other two.
Not only did he lead a group of low-level professionals to guard the north gate, but he also killed the Slime King.
At the critical moment, he killed more than 30 monsters above level 6.
Based on his intuition, Viscount Renault believed that Anno, who had exterminated the monsters, might have different discoveries from Brook and the others.
For example, the whereabouts of the monster leader of this night attack, or other information.
