Becoming a winner in life starts with becoming a shadow.

Chapter 345: The Alternative Function of the Artifact.
As Li De's plan unfolded rapidly, a month passed quickly.

One day, Reed received a message magic from Alexia.

"Master, I'm afraid we need to sign a contract with Laqiusi in advance." Alexia's tone was a little serious at this moment.

"Is the training not going well?" Li De guessed the truth as soon as he heard Alexia's tone.

"Well, Laqiusi's profession is a magic chanter. I originally thought that she should have some talent in using a sword, but now it seems that this talent is almost non-existent. The black sword is more like a prop for her to express her second-year thoughts.

Of course, if it were just this, I wouldn't be so anxious. The truth is that she doesn't have any talent in mastering magic. The only place where she shows her talent is probably in learning sacred magic.

However, the holy magic alone cannot make her stand at the forefront to attract hatred. In addition, she still rejects the holy armor in her heart. If she continues like this, she doesn't know when she will be able to overcome this difficulty and wear the holy armor openly. "Alexia reported to Li De in detail the progress of Laqiusi in the past month.

"I understand. When the time comes, just find a free time to send the person over. By the way, will Laqiusi take your place?" Li De asked casually.

"Master, I only have one contract left in my hand, and I have decided to leave this contract to Princess Lana." Alexia rejected Reed's proposal without any hesitation.

After listening to Alexia's words, Li De also understood that Alexia had made up her mind to build her own team in the direction of diplomacy and think tank.

Li De had no objection to this. After all, a distinctive team would make it easier for Li De to think less when assigning tasks in the future.

"I understand. Thank you for your hard work!" Li De said and ended the call.

"Sid, who sent the message?" Claire, who was standing by, asked Reed after seeing the energy fluctuations in his body subside.

"Alexia, she said there were some big problems in Laqiusi's training, so she planned to send her here in advance to sign the contract." Li De said slowly while lying on the bed.

"An advance contract?" Claire said as she looked at Alpha who was being held in Reed's arms on the other side.

"My quota has been used up long ago, and Laqiusi is not an elf." Alpha immediately refused after feeling Claire's gaze.

"What about you, sister? You should still have a few vacancies." Reed looked at Claire and asked.

"There is a vacancy, Sid, but why don't you ask someone else first?" Claire put her hand on Reed's chest and declined.

After hearing what Claire said, Li De knew that his cheap sister looked down on Laqiusi.

But that's true, even though she has been confirmed to be the user of two artifacts.

But after this mission, the two artifacts will not always be left to her.

Only the 'Holy Armor Aegis' that all women hate could possibly be hers. Even if there was any girl who was cruel enough, she could take away the remaining qualifications to hold the artifacts from her.

After all, Laqiusi is a newcomer and has no qualifications to compete with his predecessors for the right to use the artifact.

As for Gram, even though only Laqiusi can unleash its power, if Gram is given to Laqiusi to use, the maximum attack it can launch is Lv.10.

But if it were in the hands of Li De and a group of captains, it would be completely different.

As the first artifact brought back, it was impossible for Yita not to conduct various tests on it.

Although Gram has strong restrictions on its use, it is undeniable that an artifact is still an artifact.

It has to be said that the divine realm where Aqua is located uses materials of guaranteed quality and quantity for forging, and the materials alone have met the requirements to withstand the power of the laws.

In other words, since Gram can withstand the power of Gamma's law, he must be able to withstand Reed's ultra-high temperature immortal power.

That's right, Gram's other function is to be used as a storage vehicle for the 'Hero's Wish'.

Furthermore, even if Gamma used the 'Hero's Wish' with the power of the law, it would not cause any damage to Gram.

Precisely because Gram serves as a vehicle, the sword will be returned to Claire after this mission is completed.

Without Gram, even the ownership of the 'Holy Armor Aegis' is in jeopardy. The value of Laqiusi has dropped too much, and it is understandable that Claire is unwilling to give her a place.

"Sister, why don't you give her a place and let her be the sword-wielding one?" Reed did not use the information to ask other people, but persuaded Claire.

Because he estimated that most of the other girls would not look down on La Qiusi, and at most they would just waste a spot for his sake.

"Since Sid said so, just give her a spot." Claire knew that the other women would probably dislike the person she was not willing to accept as well.

This is also the reason why Alexia refused so decisively.

A day later, Alexia efficiently sent Laqiusi to the Fearless Monarch.

Along with Laqiusi, there were twin sisters Tina and Tia from the Blue Rose.

These two sisters were recommended to Fubuki by Alexia.

Fubuki's team currently has a sisterhood theme. Originally, Hill and Kurenai from her team were exchanged for the sisters Akame and Kurome from Zeta in exchange for them as a favor.

Of course Zeta didn't suffer any loss either. After all, her squad was positioned as an intelligence group, and before she experienced the Naruto world, she could only make do with training her subordinates.

After experiencing the Naruto world, Zeta began to gradually replace his contractors.

So strictly speaking, Zeta did not lose anything by exchanging a ninja for Fubuki.

After all, Hill was exchanged by her to Ipsilon, and Samui was brought over.

The only person Zeta did not exchange with was Cellu, a member of her original squad, because Zeta liked Cellu's extreme thinking.

Although this kind of thinking may seem reckless and impulsive to others, Zeta just likes it very much.

Anyway, even if she turned her team into a team specializing in collecting intelligence, it wouldn't matter if Cell, as the team leader, didn't know how to collect intelligence, as long as he knew how to report to Zeta.

It was for this reason that Alexia recommended these two sisters to Fubuki.

After all, these two sisters are both good-looking and have good figures, and they are real twins.

After understanding the situation, Fubuki naturally accepted Alexia's favor.

"Why didn't you send the Golden Princess Lana here?" Reed couldn't help but ask Alexia with a little surprise.

"Rana is currently being watched by the demons in the Great Tomb of Nazarick. I plan to wait until the demons monitoring her are withdrawn before taking action. Anyway, according to the direction of the world line, she will soon come into contact with the members of the Great Tomb of Nazarick. Maybe I can mislead them by then. After all, Princess Lana is really smart." Alexia gave her answer.

"It's fine as long as you have a plan." Li De nodded. After all, he just wanted to get to know it.

In less than half a day, the three women who could no longer bear it signed the contract. After signing the contract, Alexia no longer had to worry about Laqiusi failing in the real battle.

Because Claire can temporarily allocate skills to Laqiusi for use, and when necessary, Claire can even indirectly control Laqiusi through a contract.

In addition, with the contract, Laqiusi's lack of magic power was also compensated.

Moreover, Nakamori Aoko, who accepted the contract, would suppress Laqiusi's inner shyness through the contract, so that she could truly use the Holy Armor. With Gram in her hand, she would be qualified to challenge Bone King Flying Squirrel.

As time goes by, the plot is also advancing rapidly.

Reed, who has been paying attention to the development of the plot, is currently paying attention to the Bahas Empire, because the plot of the original work has reached the early stage of the establishment of the Magic Kingdom with the passage of time.

That was the invasion of the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

Although this incident had nothing to do with Li De, the follow-up of the incident was related to Li De.

why?

After the Great Tomb of Nazarick was invaded, Momonga sent Aura and Mare to the Baharu Empire to ask the emperor to go to the Great Tomb of Nazarick to apologize.

In other words, Rose, who had gotten close to the Blood Emperor Gilkenifer, had to accompany the Blood Emperor on a journey.

Of course, even if he knew the consequences of the incident, Li De could not prevent the invasion from happening.

On the contrary, Li De was very happy to see it happen.

why?

Because this way, Rose can follow the Blood Emperor Gilkenif to the bottom of the Great Tomb of Nazarick openly.

Li De has long been interested in the structure of the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

If he hadn't been worried about being discovered, Li De would have tried to invade long ago.

A few days later, Gilkenifer led his men to the outskirts of the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

As soon as I got off the car, two maids were already waiting there, kneeling on one knee.

"I'm sorry to have been waiting for you. Your Majesty, Emperor Gilkenifer Lune Farold El Nix, I am Yuri Alpha/Lupusregina Beta, who is in charge of entertaining you all."

“I am sincerely grateful to Lord Ainz Ooal Gown for welcoming me with such beautiful women like you.” Gilkenifer’s words were quite beautiful, but they failed to impress the two maids at all.

After all, if they had not been assigned the reception task, the two of them would never kneel down to the inferior humans. Even if Gilkniver was the emperor of a country, he would not be taken seriously by the two women.

"Well, the weather is not very good now, so let's start here." Yuri stood up and said lightly.

As soon as she finished speaking, a powerful magical power rose from the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

Along with the magic power, the gloomy sky covered with dark clouds suddenly became clear.

"What!" Fruda on the side exclaimed in amazement as he looked at the strange change in the sky.

"What's going on? I feel like my body is getting warm." Renas said with an incredulous look while looking up at the sky.

"Old man, what on earth happened?" Gilkniver was a little panicked at this moment. After all, this magic was a little beyond his understanding.

"【Weather Control】 is a sixth-order magic, but this is probably a more advanced magic! It's incredible!" Fruda was extremely excited at this moment.

"Let's move on to the next step!" Yuli said, and the door of a temporary palace not far away opened, and a Death Knight came out carrying tables and chairs.

"How could it be...impossible." Nippur, one of the Four Horsemen, was shocked to the extreme.

"They actually controlled the Death Knight?!" Bajod, who was one of the four knights beside him, also spoke in a horrified tone.

"Death Knight? What is a Death Knight? Is it the same thing as the legendary undead deep in the Province of Magic? Old man, answer me!" Gilkniver asked Fruda with some uneasiness.

"He actually controls so many legendary undead!" Fruda did not answer Gilkniver, but was excited by himself.

"Your Majesty, that thing is very dangerous! Even if the four of us knights attack together, we may not be able to deal with one. It's dangerous, really very dangerous." At this moment, Bajude's right hand has already tightly grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist, and his vigilance is self-evident.

"I can escape, right?!" Lenas said to Gilkniver with a look of horror on her face.

"Shut up, idiot! Don't embarrass the Bahas Empire here." A voice scolded Lenas before Gilkniver could answer.

"Rose!" Gilkniver knew who was speaking by the voice.

After all, Gilknifer was very impressed with this female knight who had entered the palace more than half a year ago.

Her power is even stronger than the four knights. She is beautiful in appearance, elegant in manners, and of noble character. She is truly a model of knighthood.

It is for this reason that even though Rose's background is unknown, Gilkenifer still hired her as a court knight.

Even if it weren't for those oppressive-looking eyes, Gilkniver wouldn't even mind having a wonderful midnight encounter with him.

However, precisely because of her unknown origins and heterochromatic eyes, Rose's status in the palace is not as high as the Four Knights, otherwise she would have replaced them long ago.

In fact, if this trip did not require the use of force, Rose might not have been brought out by Gilkniver.

"Your Majesty, the other party has no murderous intentions, he is just trying to show his power, so there is no need to make such a fuss." Rose gently pulled away the very nervous Bajod, walked to Gilkniver and said.

"This is really reassuring!" Gilkniver said to Rose.

After being interrupted by Rose, Fluda couldn't say anything else.

"The guest's eyes are very strange!" Lupusregina, who had only spoken her name once, suddenly spoke to Rose with a provocative tone.

"Can you please stop looking at me like a toy? I feel offended. Besides, if we really come into conflict, it's not clear who is the toy between us!" Rose's eyes became sharp.

"Wow, if there is such a day, it would be really exciting!" Lupusregina released the murderous intent in her eyes without any concealment after hearing this.

"Indeed, I'm looking forward to this day!" Rose's murderous intent suddenly rose.
