Poverty makes me capable of anything.

Ok?

Richie never expected that the response to leading the charge would be so simple and indifferent.

You didn't even try to curry favor with me, but you were as calm as if you'd heard someone shout, "The potato chips at the supermarket next door are half price!"

No, I wouldn't be so calm if I heard it was half price.

"This is the second son of the Imperial Minister of Industry, Li..."

"I know," the leader of the charge said.

I……

The person repeating that sentence caught their breath and couldn't speak anymore.

It’s over.

You failed to show off and ended up showing off big time instead.

"So what?" the leader of the charge retorted.

"..."

Richie took a deep breath.

He realized that his "opponent" was a stranger.

These strangers had no power or influence, and were all poor, but because they couldn't die, they possessed an unspeakable strength.

That's absolutely outrageous!

This means I am a nobleman! A privileged nobleman!

Richie really wanted to yell, the scene of being threatened just now was still vivid in his mind.

But he knew he couldn't do that.

That would be a huge loss of points.

You might have a good time here, but you'll be scolded by your family later.

"How could there be such a shameful person?"

"This is truly a disgrace to the family."

"If I were you, I'd just find a block of tofu and smash my head against it."

"He actually went down into battle himself against those strangers, tsk tsk tsk."

Richie took another breath.

He had accumulated all his anger.

He could have unleashed a powerful move at any time, but he didn't.

Instead, he put on a smile: "Aian Media is developing very well recently. I heard that it only took two years to expand beyond Hailan Forest."

Richie's gaze fell on Cornelia: "Miss Cornelia, you're your company's top star, aren't you? I'm actually a fan of yours too. So..."

He then stared at Anran and Ella: "Are these two the new talents your company is about to launch?"

"Oh, that's not true."

"no?"

The leader of the group said, "These are our company's investors. They just came here to relax during the event."

Investors?

Richie was taken aback.

He stared in astonishment at Anran and Ella.

They both looked to be no more than 20 years old and around 11 or 2 years old.

If they were investors, then their family would be...

Having spent years mingling in aristocratic circles, although his reputation wasn't great, Richie still knew the people he needed to know. At least he had never seen these two people before, nor had he ever seen anyone who looked like them.

In other words, they must be descendants of wealthy families in the local area of ​​Ocean Forest.

Now that the Blue Forest has fallen, let alone their family, they can't interfere in the affairs of the capital.

No problem at all.

Richie's mind immediately started working.

“That’s a real shame,” Richie said. “The event had to be cancelled due to some unforeseen circumstances.”

Let's find a topic to start a conversation; forcing things is pointless.

"It's a bit of a pity, a bit sad, and even sadder that we've been entangled with you," the leader of the charge said earnestly.

"..."

Ok?

Am I right?

Richie blinked.

"Don't be surprised, you heard me right. Can you take your hand back voluntarily?"

I was originally planning to lead the charge and try to outmaneuver Richie, but I just received a message from Anran.

Don't hold back, confront him! You're a stranger here, what are you afraid of?

Once Cornelia is sent away, there won't be any problems, since the festival is already over anyway.

"..."

Ritchie, snapping out of his daze, unsurprisingly flew into a rage. "I gave you a chance and you didn't take it, so don't blame me for holding back my anger for so long."

He was ready to lift the volcano's lid and unleash all the raging lava to drown these ignorant fools in front of him.

The nobles of the empire are not people you can humiliate at will!

"You're really embarrassing."

The sudden sound made Richie and the others, who were about to take action, calm down for a moment.

But seeing Vesa's indifferent face only fueled Richie's anger.

Damn it, it's bad enough that you're in my way when I'm in a bad mood, but now you're out here getting in my way, acting all high and mighty.

“What do you mean?” Richie said in a deep voice.

It's Visa.

Anran and Ella were also taken aback.

I actually saw him a long time ago.

I just didn't expect him to come up and confront Richie.

It wasn't because of a brief encounter in Bapulo that I was impressed by Visa; it was mainly because of the aura of destiny surrounding him.

It is still in the process of growth.

Anran couldn't help but envy Vesa's aura.

If she had such an aura, leveling up ten times or becoming several times more powerful in the Transcendental Realm wouldn't be a problem.

“Isn’t it obvious what I mean?” Vesa said. “As a nobleman of the Empire, you have never upheld the dignity of the nobility. Instead, you have been doing things that have tarnished the reputation of the Imperial nobility and the Wilderon family. If your grandfather knew what you had done, he would probably be so angry that he would run away from the sanatorium.”

“You…” Richie raised his hand, “Who do you think you are, to lecture me like this? Even if you are the commander of the Royal Guard now, it has nothing to do with my business.”

Snapped.

Visa suddenly reached out and grabbed Richie's arm: "Keep a clear head, or you'll suffer losses. I advise you to think about your own capabilities before you act."

In Anran's view, Richie's level is 46, and he is a non-combat class.

However, Vesa has changed a lot. The last time we met in Bapulo, Vesa was level 64 and a non-combat class, but now his stats show that he has dual classes.

Dual professions, level 78.

It's no problem to crush the current players.

This is what happens when you have a protagonist's aura; even without using any cheat codes, you can become stronger just by lying down.

"Ding! You have triggered the hidden quest [Friction Between Nobles ①]. Do you wish to accept it?"

accept.

An Ran accepted the unexpected task after only a brief look at it.

Anyway, it won't hurt me to not finish it, so I might as well take it.

Moreover, there's something interesting to say about this hidden quest.

Zhou Jieyu and her colleagues also received a mission.

"Let go!"

Richie had no intention of continuing the attack. Just as Visa had said, Richie knew his own limitations and knew he was no match for Visa.

They couldn't win in a fight, and Visa also seized the moral high ground.

All Richie can do now is rage impotently.

The commotion attracted the attention of many people. Those who couldn't afford to offend them took another route and left, leaving only a minority to watch the spectacle.

If you want to see this spectacle, you need to have a certain amount of confidence.

"As you wish." Vesa waved his hand, shaking Richie off.

The burst of force sent Richie crashing into the wall.

"you……"

The man following behind Richie wanted to say a few words, but immediately deflated when he thought of Vesa's identity.

"What, you want to stand up for him?"

Visa's gaze swept over them.

"I...no...I..."
