Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 287: Moisturizing Things Silently
Roy never acted too proactively from beginning to end, but showed enough patience and kept waiting for opportunities.

Even after arriving in the city of Mullion, they proceeded step by step, waiting to understand the situation before taking action.

In fact, he was also very cautious, no less than the Tuval wizard.

Just be cautious and careful, and the performance will be different.

His caution is called following nature and moistening things silently.

Sure enough, the princess and her close ministers all showed expressions of approval.

For orcs who admire the strong, clinging to the powerful is indeed not a proper way.

He is not a weak person, so it is normal for him to look down on others.

If Roy really showed a passion for power and wealth and was intent on currying favor, they would not be impressed.

Princess Maggie tried to persuade Roy a few more times, but failed, and the matter ended there.

However, she did not give up so easily, and subsequent recruitment attempts followed one after another.

When Roy quietly disappeared and returned to the cave to ponder the anthropomorphic form of the wyvern, Luker quietly sent a secret report saying that he had been invited again and was being taken care of, and had received several well-paid missions in succession.

This shows that Luker's temperament is different from his, which may become a breakthrough.

……

In the hotel, Roy found an opportunity to return to the city and find Luker to discuss.

"Since she has invited you so warmly, you can temporarily join her as a follower."

"Lord Roy, I am not someone who covets wealth and vanity!"

Luker panicked and quickly expressed his loyalty.

Although Planjie disliked him from time to time, this young orc was actually not stupid.

He is just reckless sometimes. Recklessness is a shortcoming of many people, but it does not mean being brainless.

Let's not talk about the favor Roy did for killing Amo and helping his Black Blade Clan to avenge its revenge. Just talking about his current disguised identity and the future bloody trial, they are all related to the clan's reputation and the glory of his ancestors.

The bloodline potion in Roy's hand can help him break through and advance, giving him strength that was unimaginable in the past.

In his mind, this is more powerful than the so-called princess and the orc high-ranking officials.

"Don't worry, since I asked you to do it, it will definitely not be considered as betrayal.

I just want you to lurk around Maggie and secretly gather intelligence."

Roy comforted him, but then explained.

"Of course, you're not good at this, and there's no need for you to do anything...

You just need to listen more, watch more, and pay more attention to things.”

After hearing this, Luker felt a little relieved.

……

"Lord Roy, are you really confident in letting him go to the princess and lurk as a follower?"

Not long after, Roy left the hotel and came to another secluded and deserted countryside.

It was already evening, and Planjie's figure appeared like a ghost. She had been lurking around Luker and his orc followers.

She was watching them secretly.

This was of course on Roy's orders.

"The Orc Empire protects Yannis very well, making it difficult for me to approach him. The princess's side should be a relatively good breakthrough point."

Roy pondered for a moment and told Planjie part of his plan.

"Actually, it's not a matter of whether I'm worried or not. Luker didn't know my goal from the beginning to the end, and he wouldn't guess the real reason why I put him next to Maggie." "Not only him, even I don't quite understand what you want to do!"

There was a hint of sarcasm on Planjie's face.

"I just roughly guessed that you were going to deal with Yanis..."

However, as dark elves who are associated with conspiracy and betrayal, this deep and secretive nature is actually a quality that makes them worthy of trust.

She felt that she couldn't quite figure out Roy's thoughts, nor did she know his specific plans, so it would be difficult for the enemy to know either.

In this way, even if Luker is accidentally exposed, he will most likely not drag himself down.

"Yes, now that things have come to this, there is no need to hide it from you.

I do want to deal with that Yannis.

But not now, but after the Beast God Festival and the Blood Trial.

In the meantime, I have other plans...

So, I'll need your help."

Roy didn't care about Planjie's reaction. After a moment of hesitation, he assigned her a new task.

"Next, I'll have Luker help you find an opportunity to approach and lurk near Yanis...

He was surrounded by only a few trusted centaurs from Knightland, all of whom were fellow centaurs from the Bloodhoof tribe.

The others are all local Centaur slaves, but there should be some loopholes that can be exploited...

Of course, it would be too dangerous to try to find loopholes from the outside.

I still have to make use of Princess Maggie’s relationship…”

Roy has always believed that there is no impenetrable wall in the world, nor any truly complete and watertight protection.

Especially since the orcs themselves are not great magic experts.

The level of magic and various experiences in this world are always limited.

However, fearing spellcasters like shamans and priests, Roy never thought of trying to break the spell by using a magic battle.

Where he really puts his effort is in people...

They constitute the entire defense system, but each of them has their own temperament, preferences, and weaknesses!
Orcs are also humans, typical creatures of medium intelligence, and sub-human monsters of the silver rank.

Through this subtle and good relationship, he can completely integrate into Maggie's side and seize the advantageous position of reasonably monitoring Yanis.

……

The subsequent developments were exactly what Roy had expected.

Luker and Planje met Yanis separately.

They followed the instructions carefully, did not make any unusual moves, and just watched quietly.

This kind of observation is not even deliberate, but a casual waiting like waiting for something to happen.

If you have the chance, take a look; if you don’t have the chance, just ignore it.

At this time, Princess Maggie and Yanis were in love and they would look for opportunities to meet each other every now and then.

Of course, most of the time it was Maggie who took the initiative to find Yanis, while Yanis seemed more restrained and calm.

"Everyone says Princess Maggie is a great beauty, but I don't think so. And judging by the Centaur's aesthetic standards, she doesn't seem that great either.
After all, centaurs are not centaurs, and the former's aesthetic concepts seem to be more inclined towards humans..."

Another day, Roy studied the physiological knowledge in monster anatomy.

Although he had never seen Yannis as an adult, he was keenly aware that something was wrong from the number of times the couple met.

There's a good chance Yanis isn't too interested in Maggie!
