If everyone becomes an adventurer, who will put in the effort themselves?

"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a drunkard before?"

At this moment, Odelle, who was standing at the door, covered her face, then turned around and said to the two men and one woman in front of her, who were wearing adventurer hooded trench coats:

"As you can see, my grandfather doesn't want to see anyone today."

Upon hearing this, the spiky-haired man who was leading the group raised his head, revealing a chin covered in lip studs:

"Tch, just as rumored, he's a stubborn old man."

After saying that, the spiky-haired man turned to Odelle and said:

"Hey, woman, tell that old man."

"Tell them that the special envoy from the school's headquarters has arrived! Tell him to get out here right now!"

Special envoy of the school headquarters?

Odelle was taken aback by his words, then looked at the three of them with surprise:

"Are you from the headquarters of the School of Pride?"

"Didn't Grandpa say you were all dead?"

Upon hearing this, the three people standing in front of him looked at each other in bewilderment.

Finally, the woman with the blue curly hair on the far left couldn't help but say:

"Did your grandfather teach you this?"

Odelle nodded, then tilted her head and thought for a moment before silently stepping aside.

At this moment, the blue-haired girl saw this action and burst into laughter in exasperation:

"Alright, let's go inside and settle the score!"

Chapter 139 May I ask, how can I do you any favors? (Fourth update)

With a loud bang!

Upon hearing the sound of the association's main door being kicked open, Lynn immediately turned around and said to Marco:

"Old man, the troublemakers are here!"

"I know."

Marco, sitting on the baby stool, raised an eyebrow, looking completely calm.

"Kid, you'll see later..."

Before Marco could finish speaking, he saw Lynn pull Fiona and Lilia along, pick up chairs, and walk to a table five meters away.

Marco was completely stunned.

"Isn't it a bit too quick for you to distance yourself?"

"Nonsense!" Lynn rolled her eyes and said, "What does this have to do with me?"

Marco's eyes widened as he asked, "Aren't you Knightworth?"

“No, my last name is Mona,” Lynn retorted without hesitation. “I’m married into the family, is that not allowed?”

"Hey!!"

Marco immediately glared and puffed out his beard, but he couldn't do anything about Lynn.

Just then, a hand slammed onto the table with a loud "smack!"

"Marco Will!"

"What was that attitude you just displayed? Were you trying to rebel against the school's headquarters?"

Marco scratched his head, then looked hesitantly at the girl in front of him, dressed in the hooded trench coat typical of adventurers, with only her blue curly hair visible through the hood:

Even if you say that....

"But wasn't that school headquarters long gone?"

Marco calmly took a sip of his drink and said in a subtle tone:

"That place, it seems, was taken over by Knightworth a long time ago, wasn't it?"

Lynn, who was sitting on the side watching the show, raised an eyebrow slightly when she heard this.

The headquarters of the Pride School of Evangelicalism was taken away by the first head of the Knightworth family.

Wait a minute, she seems to be the saint of the Pride School, so isn't this equivalent to the saint moving her home away?

"Huh? What do you mean?" The girl with blue curly hair was about to get angry.

But then, a hand reached out, and it was the leader who stopped her:

"Alright, Blanney, there's no need to argue with this old man."

“Leo…” the girl called Blanney said discontentedly, “Didn’t you see the old man’s attitude?”

"It's pointless to talk to an old man who has even abandoned the name of the Will family."

Leo, the leader, sneered, then lifted his hood, revealing his face.

He had spiky black hair, but a tuft of hair in his bangs was dyed a deep purple. His face, especially around his right eye, was covered with stripes of tattoos.

When Marco saw the tattoo, his previously drunken eyes suddenly sharpened:

"The Mark of the Giant..."

"Hey kid, what's your last name?"

“Will, Leo Will.”

The lead spiky-haired, tattooed man sneered:

“I am the grandson of your brother ‘Arton Will’.”

Marco paused for a moment, then looked at Leo with a strange expression:

"But how come I remember that brat liked men?"

Upon hearing this, the tall, thin man and the blue-haired girl, Blanney, stared at Leo in shock.

At this moment, Leo said with a dark face:

"You old fool, my grandma just looks like a man and likes to call herself one! If you keep talking nonsense, believe me, I'll kill you!"

"Huh?!" Marco was shocked: "You really are that Arton's grandson?"

Only family members and close acquaintances know that their sister-in-law looks like a man.

But knowing that his sister-in-law liked to call herself a man was a secret known only to their own family.

"That kid has a grandson now..." Marco felt a pang of nostalgia, then turned to Odelle and shouted, "Odelle, bring me the wine from the bottom of section 43 in the wine cellar! I want to have a drink with my great-nephew!"

"Stop trying to get close to me, you bastard."

Leo slammed his fist on the table, his anger barely contained, and said:

"Old man, I don't believe you don't know why I came here to find you!"

"At a time like this, are you still pretending to be stupid?"

“Even if you say that, it’s no use.” Marco scratched his ear and said helplessly, “This is Mona City, not the Giant Forest of the Will family.”

"Besides, even if all those old fogies from the Forest of Giants came to Mona City, do you really think you could snatch the Gospel of Pride from the hands of these angels and dragons of Mona City?"

"How many years has your family wanted to be the head of the Arrogance faction? Do you really think nobody knows?"

"These are all publicly known secrets!"

"But who would admit it?"

"The first Knightworth is still alive. Without the Gospel of Pride in hand, and without the Archbishop stepping in, who would think 'Will' can represent the Pride School?"

"You!" Leo's eyes widened as he glared at Marco.

At this moment, Marco calmly took a sip of his drink and said:

"By the way, you guys must have come through official channels, right?"

"I remember there were legitimate caravans traveling to and from Mona City in the Forest of Giants. You used the name of that caravan to get in touch with the Red Dragon Merchant Guild, right?"

"Heh, on one hand, they covet other people's family treasures, and on the other hand, they use connections to sneak into the city. The Will family has really fallen!"

Upon hearing this, Leo clenched his fists and said coldly:

"Old man, are you trying to force me to take action?"

Marco chuckled upon hearing this:

"Do you believe I can find someone from the Red Dragon Chamber of Commerce to report you and have you deported in a matter of minutes?"

Leo scoffed at these words.

"Anyone can talk big, you old codger! If you're so capable, then give me a shout right now!"

After Marco finished speaking, he immediately turned around and shouted in Lynn's direction:

"Hey, Lynn, someone's looking for you here."

Lynn, who had already led his men to the door, paused for a moment, turned around, and looked at Marco with a strange expression:

"You're dragging me into this?"

"Also, when did I become a member of the Red Dragon Merchant Guild?"

Marco chuckled and said, "Your surname is Knightworth, so why isn't it?"

Upon hearing this, Marco turned and glanced at Leo:

"By the way, grand-nephew, you just said you were going to steal the Gospel of Pride right under the noses of the Knightworth family!"

Leo paused for a moment, turned to look at Lynn, and then laughed in exasperation:

"You've been working with people from Knightworth?"

He really didn't expect that the random passerby Marco pulled over would actually be a member of Knightvoca.

But upon closer examination, it makes sense.

Marco, that old man, has been able to stay in Mona City for so many years, he must have some connections with the local families. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to hold the position of president of the Evangelical Fellowship for so many decades.

However, what Leo didn't expect was that when his relative came over, Marco didn't even have the slightest intention of helping. His words implied that he wanted to discourage them from coming.

Damn it, does this bastard think he has nothing to do with the Will family after dropping his surname?

"Hey, hey, hey, why are you saying such harsh things!"

Marco stared at his great-nephew with a dark expression:

"What do you mean by 'colluding'? Didn't you only get into the city safely because of your collusion with the Red Dragon Merchant Guild?"

"If anyone's going to flirt, it was you guys who flirted with them first, wasn't it?"

Leo said with a dark face, "The right to enter the city is bought!"

"Good grief, you got ripped off by the Red Dragon Merchant Guild?" Marco looked over in surprise, then turned and shouted at Lynn:

"Quick, Lynn, go report them and make them buy another ticket!"

"Trust me, go now!"

"The Chamber of Commerce will definitely give you a share, and that's a huge sum of money."

Lynn paused for a moment, then walked over and looked at Leo, saying:

"How about we team up and beat this old geezer up first?"

Upon hearing the suggestion, Leo's eyebrows twitched; he was actually somewhat tempted.

But he quickly suppressed his excitement, because he knew that Marco was not someone he could easily deal with.

"I care about you more than that."

Upon hearing this, Lynn silently took a step back:

"Dude, there's something wrong with what you're saying."
