Chapter 243 Let's Get Married
"How can this be!"
Is this okay?
Jiang Xi and Nakan spoke up in unison.
Jiang Xi glanced at him subconsciously, but when she saw him looking over, she quickly looked away.
Nakan's eyes were filled with nervousness and trepidation as he cautiously stole glances at her.
Nafel's voice remained as calm as ever.
"The reason he dropped in rank now is because he is not the female master's beast husband. As long as he forms a marriage contract with the female master, he will soon be able to return to the third rank, or even enter the fourth rank."
Jiang Xi fell silent.
Falling down is easy, but rising up is not.
Nafiel: "The female master doesn't need to think too much. Nakan was originally going to marry the female master."
“If the female master does not marry him, he will not marry any other female master in the future, and will stay with the female master forever.”
Nafiel glanced at Nakan, who immediately straightened up and spoke understandingly.
"Female Envoy, you don't need to feel too much pressure. If you don't want to marry me, you don't have to force yourself. Although my ability has dropped in level, it's not that I can't get back up. It's just a matter of time."
Nafiel: "..."
Nakan's words only made Jiang Xi feel more guilty.
She scratched her head; her brain was a little overloaded.
Just then, Dobin's voice came from outside.
"Want to eat?"
Jiang Xi quickly turned her head to look out, "Eat!"
Why don't we eat first?
Nafiel sensed the female master's avoidance and said nothing more.
Jiang Xi wanted to eat out, but was worried about being spotted by the wandering sea creatures, so she opted to have the food delivered to her house instead.
The person delivering the food this time was Riley.
Jiang Xi quickly took out 140 coins and gave them to him.
"Two more days."
Riley raised an eyebrow.
"You have Shell Coins now?"
His gaze shifted, pausing briefly on Nakan.
He didn't get back until midnight last night.
Did you bring back any Shell Coins from outside?
Jiang Xi gave a mumbled "hmm".
Riley was about to leave, and Jiang Xi glanced at Nakan, gritted her teeth, and followed him out.
"Boss, I have something I want to ask you."
As she took her first step, she turned back and said something to Nafi and Nakan.
"Wait for me inside, I'll be back soon."
Nafiel and Nakan, who had gotten up, sat back down.
Nakan watched her departing figure, his eyes filled with disappointment.
He asked Naphel in a low voice, "Naphel, does she really dislike me?"
Nafiel lowered his eyes and cut the roast meat into small pieces.
Don't overthink it.
Riley walked outside and glanced at her sideways.
"What's up?"
Jiang Xi glanced back and then said to Riley.
"Walk a little further ahead."
Riley clicked his tongue.
"Don't want them to hear?"
"That's easy."
With that, Riley pushed open the door to the nearest room and invited her in.
"Come in."
Jiang Xi was stunned for two seconds.
Is this room soundproof?
Riley leaned against the door and smiled.
"Of course, this house is made of soundproof wood. Didn't Dobin tell you? No matter how loud the noise is inside, it won't be heard outside."
Jiang Xi felt utterly blank, her mind filled only with questions she wanted to ask.
She went inside, closed the door, and then closed the window.
Riley coughed, walked further in, and leaned against the table made of wooden stakes.
The light in the room had dimmed considerably.
Jiang Xi didn't get too close to him before asking him a question.
"How do we get a marriage contract here? Where can we borrow the contract slab? Does your shop offer an errand service? I can use shell coins."
Riley paused for a moment.
"Marriage contract?"
In an instant, he realized something.
"You're going to enter into a marriage contract with that red-tailed serpent beastman?"
Jiang Xi's eyes flickered. "I was just asking."
Riley chuckled.
"You have such poor taste. Do you think he can support you just because he brought you back some shell coins last night? One of these poor orcs isn't enough for you, why do you need two?"
Jiang Xi: "..."
No, is it really necessary to be so indignant?
"I was just asking."
Jiang Xi: "If you don't know, I'll ask someone else."
With that, Jiang Xi opened the door and was about to leave.
Riley's voice came from behind.
"cannot!"
Jiang Xi paused slightly, then turned her head in a daze.
"Can't? What can't be done?"
Riley: "The Contract Stone Tablet cannot be lent out. You have to go to the Contract Hall to register and form the contract yourself. It costs 10 shell coins."
Jiang Xi's eyes widened slightly.
"You want more Shell Coins?"
What a swindler!
Riley: "Otherwise, those orcs who don't have Shell Coins don't work hard to earn them, but just want to find a female to live off. The Royal Court will not allow such orcs."
Jiang Xi blinked, sensing that he had a lot of opinions about the poor orcs.
It's likely that they had a falling out in the past with the poor orcs.
Jiang Xi didn't say anything about it; she just nodded.
"I understand, thank you."
Knowing this is one thing, but we still need to go out and find out about the sea creatures' movements; we can't afford to run into them.
Jiang Xi lifted her leg and took a step forward, and Riley's voice rang out again.
“I’m telling you, if you want to marry an orc, you should consider me. If you marry me, you’ll never have to worry about shell coins again.”
Jiang Xi's eyes widened suddenly, and she turned her head stiffly.
Riley leaned back on the wooden table, arms crossed, legs propped up, chin casually raised, his black hair flowing over his shoulders, shirt half-open, his dark green eyes fixed on her.
Jiang Xi turned her head sharply, averted her gaze, and fled in panic.
As I ran out, I tripped by the door and almost fell.
"I'll pretend I didn't hear that!"
Riley got up, but all that remained for him was the sight of her petite figure running away.
He stroked his chin and smiled thoughtfully.
"Could it be that she only has these two beastly husbands?"
"So shy, she doesn't seem like a female with many male lovers."
In that case, once he marries in, wouldn't he be able to be at the very front and thus have some influence over the beastly husbands who marry in later?
Moreover, these two snake-beastmen were poor, boring, and had no competitive edge.
When Jiang Xi hurriedly ran back to room number one, Nafiel and Nakan heard her say "pretend you didn't hear me" and got up and came out.
"Mistress, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, it's nothing." Jiang Xi patted her burning face and then looked at Nakan.
"Nakan, after dinner, go out and find out where the Royal Court's Hall is, when it opens and closes, and whether there are any sea creatures active in the city."
Nakan paused for a moment.
"Qi Dian?"
What place is this?
Jiang Xi nodded.
"I've made up my mind, let's get married."
If she hesitated a little when she asked Riley earlier, she didn't hesitate at all now.
If the snake twins only marry one female, and Nakan will have to marry her sooner or later, then it makes no difference whether they marry early or late.
Although...
Her gaze swept over the similar faces of Nafiel and Nakan.
Although it was a bit awkward and uncomfortable, it still felt like it was quite daring.
But now, whether it's due to an upgrade in her superpowers or other reasons, she really can't have just one beast husband anymore...
