Guild Boss's Ambition

When Corvina introduced herself, her voice was as sweet as honey, and her eyes moved around, which always made me feel involuntarily that I was being watched, as if she was sending us some implicit signal, but also as if she wasn't. Just a vague glance made my heart itch, as if she was a sexy and poisonous beauty.

After the introduction, Corvina pointed to the remaining maids and said with a smile: "Well, today is the day for you to use the hot springs to rest and enjoy yourself. I will not stay here to disturb you, as I should have been buried in the grave a long time ago. If you need anything, you can ask my pets for it. If you want to find me, please come to the living room on the second floor──"

After she finished speaking, Ms. Corvina walked slowly towards the stairs to the upper floor. At this time, Bai Ye suddenly stood out from the team and caught up with Ms. Corvina without saying a word.

"What does Bai Ye want to do?" Seeing this, Meng'er immediately came over and asked.

"Who knows? She is always mysterious." I replied.

"Forget it. I'm afraid Bai Ye can't do anything bad in front of Corvina."

Meng'er glanced at their backs and then took my hand and said, "Shall we go to the guest room together?"

42. Conversation with the Royal Family (White Night)

(white night)

Corvina.

A not very famous name.

But if you add the surname Caesar, everything becomes different.

Judging from past history, the Caesar royal family of Falorin gave up their long-standing beliefs in order to allow all intelligent races to escape the fate of the reincarnation of civilization. Although their country has been destroyed on the surface, they are still very active in secret, with influence throughout the business and political circles. Even though they are not in positions of power, they still use the political tactics that they are good at to influence the world situation.

"Ms. Bai Ye, you must have some questions to ask Ruan, right?"

We walked all the way to a living room on the second floor before Corvina stopped and turned around to break the silence between us. In my real eyes, her hair was a bunch of dark green, slender snakes. At this moment, those hundreds of snake eyes were looking at me quietly. Unlike the gentleness and calmness on the surface, the Half Medusa in the shadow was full of wildness and danger, like a predator that would bite you at any time.

What’s even more terrifying is that I can’t see through her strength or her age.

The world is unfair. In front of various old monsters, the younger generation always suffers from information disadvantages.

Therefore, we must learn how to deal with the older generation.

"My intuition tells me that this meeting between you and me will be beneficial to both of us."

I maintained my smile, bowed slightly, and then sat down neither humbly nor arrogantly. Even though the other party was a descendant of the great Queen Constantina, according to his current status and position, if I behaved like a standard noble, it would not only be self-deprecating, but might also cause misunderstandings on this sensitive day, leading to unnecessary confrontation.

As the saying goes, it is better to resolve a feud than to create one. As a necromancer, you must not make enemies everywhere.

Seeing me sitting down, Corvina served me tea. The magician's hand brought me a cup of osmanthus honey, and his poisonous tongue chuckled, "Ha, today is the day of the fall of my country. Why should Miss Bai Ye be so serious? Although the Snake House is desolate, there are hot springs underground and lake and mountain views upstairs. Talking about love and romance will make you forget your worries, right?"

"I'm afraid you'll never wake up after this dream." I said, staring into her eyes.

Corvina laughed rudely and spoke bluntly, "It's good that you can't sleep, it's good that you can't sleep. For an immortal monster like you who harms the world, it's not a bad thing to die. However, since you want to talk about something serious, Ruan has no choice but to accompany you. Let's see whether you are really helping our little girl Meng'er, or just using her to achieve your own goals."

Seeing that Corvina wanted to continue the conversation, my smile couldn't help but become wider, and I officially entered a state of preparation for battle. If nothing unexpected happened, the following conversation would not be easier than the battle with the high elves. If I accidentally said something too much or too little, my life as a hated necromancer would be in danger.

Looking at the entire history of the Falling Kings, the Caesar family can be described as heartless and unrighteous, without blood or tears.

After thinking about it for a while, I took the first step on the chessboard with courage: "Ms. Caesar, from your tone just now, you seem to care about our guild leader's daughter. Is there some unknown relationship between the Stone House and the Caesar family's Snake House?"

Corvina exhaled a puff of cigarette and half-closed his snake pupils: "There's no need to make it so ambiguous and mysterious. Your Stone House is an old guild with a long history. It was prosperous four hundred years ago, but it has fallen a little recently. But I won't cut off this relationship so immediately. At the very least, I will wait until the pets' bodies are stiff and cold and can't move before I pick them up to fertilize them."

It was slightly different from what I had imagined. Corvina's tone was not strict. This might mean that I knew too little, or that she was trying to be friendly with me and show her sincerity in cooperation. More likely, she was just throwing out some ideas to get me to let down my guard and talk about some private topics that were more closely related to the key points of the situation.

While I was thinking about how to start, I started talking about other irrelevant things: "Although they are pets, the snake princesses you raise are not only beautiful, but also have at least gold-level strength. I was still wondering who is so skilled and bold that he actually built a house in a dangerous place, but now that I see you, I know you are an extraordinary person."

"Not an extraordinary person? Ruan is not a human anymore, so he must be an extraordinary person." Corvina chuckled and squinted his eyes and said jokingly, "But speaking of servants in this humble house, the wolfhounds raised by Miss Bai Ye are also extraordinary creatures. Even if they attacked in groups, they might not be able to successfully kill the thirty-four poisonous snakes in the hall just now, not to mention that Miss Bai Ye has already transformed them to be immune to all poisons."

I was not shaken by Corvina's vision at all. I just smiled calmly and said, "I only have one puppy, and I don't have any other. But I think you have more than just a few snake princesses. If you say that there is a vicious dragon in your underground hot spring, Bai Ye would not be surprised, because now I have a silent coiled dragon in front of me."

"Panlong?" Corvina raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Ryu prefers those big lizards with wings on their backs."

While chatting about my pets, I sorted out the questions in my mind and got straight to the point: "Speaking of dragons, the Dragon Island faction suffered heavy casualties in the battle four hundred years ago. Until today, their large figures are rarely seen. If the high elves succeed in summoning fairy dragons this year, I wonder what countermeasures everyone in the alliance will have?"

Hearing this, Corvina glanced at me with a hint of amusement, looked out the window, and asked with a faint smile, "Miss Bai Ye, why do you think that there will be the wrath of nature this spring? In the art of war, the way to win is to use the normal means to unite and the unusual means to win. We, the Alliance of Light, have fought with the high elves for centuries. To this day, have we ever been so sure that the other side will blow the horn of war first?"

At this point, I couldn't help but ask curiously, "Did Ms. Covina just say something out of turn?"

Corvina shrugged nonchalantly, added some more osmanthus honey to my teacup, and said with a sweet smile, "Slip of the tongue? Maybe it was really slip of the tongue? When people get old, it's inevitable to slip of the tongue, but it's also rare to be confused occasionally. It's strange to say, how could a wicked person like you who is intolerable to the world stay with Meng'er girl? Is there anything about her that makes you look forward to her?"

Hearing this question, in order to avoid being bitten by the snake, I naturally told the truth: "To be honest, Lord Caesar, I am no longer a free soul. Although I want to pursue immortality like other necromancers, I can no longer do whatever it takes like I did in the past. Now the Stone House and I only have a mutually beneficial symbiotic relationship. I think Lord Caesar, you don't need to worry about this."

Corvina smiled, his eyebrows curved in joy. "Who would worry about that girl Meng'er? When her stone house was about to go bankrupt, Ruan didn't help her. Now she just has a necromancer who likes to do weird experiments. Why should Ruan go to the trouble of suspecting anyone? Anything?"

A necromancer who loves to do weird experiments...

It seems that the Lord of Surut City betrayed me...

Silently listening to Corvina's warning and acquiescence, I nodded with a smile and changed the subject: "Your Excellency Caesar, you should not be suspicious of anyone, but there is one thing that I am concerned about. May I ask why the cemetery outside your mansion stores such a huge amount of dead energy? In my opinion, it is all delicious food."

Corvina chuckled: "Miss Bai Ye, do you want to have lunch so early in the morning?"

Although the death energy is of great use to me, I dare not touch the Wang family's things.

"No, it's not necessary. I'm afraid it will upset my stomach if I eat it."

Hearing my reply, Corvina raised his eyebrows in satisfaction and explained, "In fact, those dead air are just food prepared by Ruan for a small pet. That thing likes to hibernate and only wakes up two or three times a year. Every time it eats a lot. If we don't set up a cemetery and raise a few big fat pigs to fill its stomach, it will get angry and give us a headache."

Eat dead air...

Love hibernation...

Mysterious creatures...

In front of Corvina, I immediately suppressed my curiosity and didn't get too deep into it: "It actually feeds on death energy. The pet raised by Lord Caesar is really special──"

However, Corvina asked me strangely: "Miss Bai Ye, do you want to know what my pet is?"

I hurriedly said, “No.”

Then, she spoke on her own initiative: "It is a giant water snake. It usually rests in the lava of the volcano. When it is hungry, it comes out to eat one or two soul-devouring demons. When it is tired, it goes back to the lava to sleep. But every time it is about to shed its skin, the mountain where it lives will be shaken non-stop, causing the neighbors to complain. Many times, adventurers were even called in to search for the source of the earthquake."

"I guess they didn't find it," I said.

Corvina shook his head, his expression looking very strange.

“Could they have found it?” I couldn’t help but feel sorry for those adventurers.

Hearing this, Corvina suddenly smiled and said loudly: "Yes, that's right. They found it, and I deliberately let them find it. Then they never saw the sun above the earth again. I separated and imprisoned them. The separation was not an ordinary separation, but I separated them individually and placed them in appropriate places according to categories──"

Finally, she tilted her head towards me with a hint of innocence: "Ms. Bai Ye, do you like my version of the story?"

"What a funny person."

I approached her eyes fearlessly and gave her an equally disgusting innocent smile: "Not bad, really."

43. Hot Spring (Little Blue)

(Ulu-Lannon)

Ever since I saw the first lizardman in this world, I began to be able to accept various settings with ease.

Whether it's a modified dog that suddenly grows bigger, or a beautiful lady transformed from a snake, insect, rat or ant, I find that it only takes me a short time to get rid of the fear caused by the weirdness and abnormality. I will even do some things that I didn't dare to do when I was on Earth, to satisfy my curiosity about new things.

With the help of identification, my eyes quickly locked onto a maid named Coral. The system showed that her original form was a three-colored coral snake. Among the four maids leading the way, her figure was the most graceful. The three braids on her back were uniquely composed of red, yellow and black. The bright colors caught my eyes at once.

I broke away from Gushan, who was extremely afraid of snakes, without leaving a trace, and trotted forward to squeeze next to the maid named Shanhu.

"How can I help you?" She looked at me suspiciously and said as she walked.

"Can all the snakes in your snake house turn into beauties like you?" I asked with a smile.

Perhaps because of my abrupt praise, the maid Shanhu blushed and her voice wavered a little: "There is no such thing as beauty...beauty. In front of Master Corvina, we are just useless slaves. Besides, our current posture is all due to Master Corvina's grace. All of this was designed by Master Corvina."

"Design? How did your master do it?" I asked in surprise.

However, my earnest inquiry did not receive the expected response. Shanhu suddenly raised her hand to cover half of her cheek and said shyly, "Please don't stare at me like that. You have a very nice smell on you. We snakes have a natural affinity for it. If you get too close to us, we won't be able to control ourselves."

Can't hold it...

I looked at the delicate and protruding body of the coral, and I couldn't control myself a little bit...

But before I could think about whether I should give my cell phone number to the beautiful sister Coral, Sister Meng'er on the other side had already put her arm around my waist and pulled me straight back into her surveillance range.

"Slutty girl, don't run around trying to act cute in front of other girls. You're only twelve years old. Be restrained. Don't get pregnant and come back to us crying. We will definitely let you give birth to the baby."

It turns out that our president has quite a lot of imagination.

I thought I had to instill in her the correct sexual concepts: "President, girls can't have children with each other."

At this time, Senior Anne, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up, "No, four hundred years ago, Wallace of the Kingdom of Falorin and her two wives had already had same-sex children. Later, with the support and research of the three couples, the lizardmen had learned how to use natural magic to extract semen from eggs, making same-sex children between women relatively popular."

"Why do I suddenly feel that the technology in this alien world is more advanced than that on Earth..."

"Or should I say that the lesbians in this world are just too good..."

I was speechless at the knowledge added by Senior Annie. At the same time, through this explanation, I indirectly understood why this world discriminates against Korolo and others. One of the reasons that is brought up is the issue of fertility.

Thinking of this, I asked Senior Annie, "What about boys and boys?"

The half-elf replied with regret, "It is said that after Wallace obtained the method of lesbian reproduction, she did not continue to invest in the research of male homosexual reproduction. I heard that Wallace spent more than 500 million gold coins in the research of lesbian reproduction. You know, that is a terrifying price that can buy an entire small country."

"Five hundred billion billion billion--billion gold coins?!"

I was already familiar with the market prices in this world, so I immediately called out, "Does that rich woman named Wallace sell arms or drugs? Is she a long-lived person? Is she still alive? Does she owe a girlfriend or an adopted daughter? Does she have a special fetish like lolita? If I drag Gu Shan to sell myself to him, do you think this rich woman will let us be her treasures?"

Hearing my crazy shouting, Sister Menger immediately sneered and said, "Come on, little things like you and Gushan are not worthy of my attention. In all the history of ancient Lorraine, Wallace's two wives were almost always described by historians and poets as unparalleled fairies on earth. If you have two little flat chests with barely grown hair, you might be disliked for being slow if someone takes you as a maid!"

"Hey, hey! Do you have to be so sharp-tongued? After all, I am a poster girl with fans!" I cried aggrievedly.

At this moment, Berlani suddenly interrupted and said, "Sister is jealous."

Being backstabbed by her sister, Meng Er immediately blushed and said arrogantly, "Blannie, you, you, you... who are you saying is jealous? Xiao Lan and the others want to go there, and I, the president, don't bother to ask about it! Humph!"

But for the first time, the girls in our Stone House had a tacit understanding to work together when teasing their own president. Before the president could calm down, Gu Shan, who was hiding behind Lian'er to avoid the snake, shot a cold arrow: "President! I, Gu Shan, think that even if your character setting lacks personal characteristics, this kind of textbook tsundere is also a foul!"

"If you keep arguing, I'll deduct your salary! Baka!"

"Hey, Xiao Meng'er, is it really true that I can tease you as long as I sacrifice a little bit of my salary?" Senior Annie intervened at the right time.

"Then I will also use five copper coins as a sacrifice to summon an opportunity to tease the president!" I immediately gave firepower support to my senior.

"Ten gold coins! It covers a month." Berlane said in a calm but seemingly serious tone.

"Ah-ah-ah-" Lian'er cheered for our poster girl camp happily.

Amidst the heavy bombardment, the president who was on vacation covered his ears, walked past the snake maids who were leading the way, and walked into a huge guest room with ease. Eight large beds were placed in the room. The interior decoration was antique Gothic. In addition to the mythological style handmade carpet, my favorite thing at first glance was the crystal magic chandelier on the ceiling.

Even if it were placed in the Earth era, the environment of this room would be better than many five-star hotels.

"By the way, Sister Meng'er, how much is our rent per day here?" I asked.

Sister Menger blinked and smiled nostalgically, "It's free! It's free! When we get to the Snake House, except for the car fare, everything else is free. If it's not free, we ordinary people will have no way to make friends with super rich people like them. If you feel embarrassed, just go and show some cuteness to Corvina later."

"Hey, hey! President! Please stop making it sound like I've been making a living by being cute, okay?" I complained.

"But after the kitchen incident, aren't you only useful for acting cute?" The Knight President raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"Not at all!"

I immediately started pointing fingers at her: "First, I arranged a training plan for you; second, I perfected many small details within the guild; third, Hai Lao and I have completed the master-apprentice system, and it has now been officially launched; fourth, I also wrote a sign language book for you to use freely. Hmm? Wait? Where did you get the sign language book that I put on the table?"

After choosing a bed that suits my taste, the president gave me a strange black cat smile and said, "You mean the sign language book? Because you were in a coma a while ago, I accidentally forgot about it. I went to the printing office the day before yesterday to check the situation and correct the typesetting errors. I guess I won't get the finished product until next Friday."

Finished product?

I quickly asked, "Finished product? What do you want to do, President?"

Sister Menger opened her luggage bag and took out the underwear for changing after the hot spring bath. She replied in an expectant voice, "Of course we'll give it to our adventurers for free! That set of sign language tactics is top-notch stuff. I don't think we should keep it to ourselves. We must share it with everyone in Mopolis."

free?

The Sister Meng Er that I know always gives herself free, but never gives to others!

Or maybe...free ones are the most expensive?

I poked her waist and asked, "So, specifically, how are you going to deal with this?"

Just as the words came out of his mouth, a calloused finger pressed against his lips. The president's voice came from above: "It is my decision as the president. Today is a day off. What you need to do is relax and enjoy the hot springs and the maids' services with everyone. As for guild affairs, it won't be too late to discuss them tomorrow when we get to the guild."

"Oh, okay."
