Guild Boss's Ambition

Unexpectedly, Miss Doris stuffed the sand tray into my arms with a relaxed look on her face: "What you need to do is actually very simple, just close your eyes and shake this Dragon Sand Magic Plate, and then hand it back to Ruan."

Looking at the sand table in front of me and Medusa's expectant expression, I knew that I had no choice but to do divination this time.

"Just close your eyes and shake it?"

"Just close your eyes and shake it!"

rustling rustling...

rustling rustling...

rustling rustle...

I followed Doris's instructions and shook the sandbox several times.

During the entire process, I didn't feel at all that this sand table had any power to predict the future.

With a skeptical mood, I handed the sand table to Doris.

“Is this all right?”

"Mm-hmm! You did a great job, absolutely right! Let me see!"

After taking the sand table, Miss Doris began to study the Dragon Sand Magic Plate seriously. She did not have any magic, nor did she produce any powerful sound and light effects. She just found a piece of white paper as if she was doing arithmetic problems, held her forehead and thought, wrote and scribbled on half a page of paper with ink, and then said "OK" to complete it.

"Okay, the result of the divination is out."

Although I wasn't really looking forward to it, I still pretended to be expectant: "Oh oh oh! Tell me now! Tell me now!"

“Hehehe—”

Miss Doris snorted a few times in an unfathomable way, and said with a sly smile: "You are worried about love now."

!!!

Surprisingly accurate!

I asked in a trembling voice: "How did you know?"

"I can guess this without divination. Everyone who comes to ask Ruan about marriage is like you."

I couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Should I admire you, Miss Doris..."

Miss Doris nodded without any modesty and said, "You should admire Ruan! Because Ruan has seen your future, and with Ruan's hint, it will be easier for you to get the happiness you want."

I swallowed hard and said, "I want happiness, Miss Doris, what do you mean?"

She raised her nose arrogantly: "Hehe! You want to know? The hint I foresaw?"

"Want to know! Want to know!"

"Then use fifty words to praise Ruan's beauty and wisdom right now!"

After thinking for a moment, I said in one breath: "Great Miss Doris, descendant of Queen Constantina, I sincerely admire your wisdom and kindness inherited from your ancient bloodline, your clear and transparent eyes that can foresee the future, and your elegance that spans the classical tradition and the new era, and of course, your beautiful breasts that are estimated to be C cup."

"Uh..." Miss Doris was speechless after hearing my heartfelt words. "Although your praise exceeds the stipulated fifty words and involves sexual harassment at the end, overall, it is still very much in line with Ruan's wishes. In view of your sincerity, the merciful Ruan will give you some enlightenment!"

"Yes, Goddess Doris, I am waiting for your holy words." I said hurriedly.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Miss Doris blushed, turned away, and muttered, "I can't tell you the specific details, but I can tell you about the lucky charm that can help you. You have to listen carefully, try your best to find it in your life, and be more intimate with it."

"Can't you just tell me what the hell it is?" I asked.

"No, because Ruan only knows a few of its characteristics."

Thinking about the mystery of divination, I instantly accepted this setting: "Okay, go ahead, I'll keep it in mind."

"The first characteristic is that it is non-human. The thing that can help you is not human!"

"Okay, what about the second one?"

"The second tip is that it's maternal. The things that can help you are female."

"This guild is full of women. It's not easy to find someone with just these two hints!"

"The third mark is youth. She is young and has not yet grown up and matured."

"So she's a loli? But there are also demi-human loli running around the streets!"

“The fourth clue is the stone house. She has a direct connection with the stone house.”

"Hmm...it's still too hard to guess."

"Then you have to grasp her last characteristic." Miss Doris said seriously.

"Okay, I'll try my best." I smiled bitterly.

"The last characteristic is also the most decisive one, which is -"

Miss Doris dragged out the word mysteriously for a long time.

I had no choice but to cooperate with her and show my concentration: "That is--"

"A secret and great existence."

……

……

70. Who is it? (Gu Shan)

(Ancient Mountain)

Inhuman.

Maternal.

Young.

Stone house.

A secret and great existence.

"That's all I have to say. It's the same as not saying anything at all."

"No, strictly speaking, it's not that it's the same as not saying anything, but there are no non-human lolita in our Stone House! As for lolita, aren't there only Xiaolan, Lian'er and myself in the guild? But aren't all of them human? Or does the noble person in Miss Doris's prophecy also include our guests and adventurers?"

"No, no, no, that's a bit too broad."

The day after Miss Doris had read the fortune for me, I was thinking about how to arrange the working hours for the new part-time employees, while sitting in the lounge thinking about the matter of Senior Annie. However, please don't get me wrong, as a good foreman, while I was distracted by personal matters, I also handled official business well. It only took me five minutes to fill out the work schedule.

Next, I spent a little more time pasting the class schedule to its usual display location.

Ok……

!!!

Even though it was the same idea that I had all those years ago, I suddenly had an idea.

"Isn't there Countess Sophie? With her girlish figure, she should be only about thirteen or fourteen years old!"

"Anyway, let's go upstairs and ask first!"

On second thought, I left my job and rushed to the third floor while no one was paying attention.

Because it was afternoon, there were more people on the third floor. In order to avoid attracting the attention of Mr. Hai and getting a stern reprimand from him, I carefully hid in the crowd and sneaked to Miss Sophie's collection.

Thanks to our poster girl who has been advertising for her, her business has finally picked up recently.

However, it was only a slight improvement.

There were only about six or seven adventurers gathered at the recycling center to watch the goods, and Miss Sophie was quite free at the moment.

I quickly seized the opportunity to walk over and ask her age.

"Hello, Miss Sophie! Are you free now?"

Seeing me, Miss Sophie immediately showed a friendly smile and said, "Whenever you are free, you are welcome to come anytime, as long as that idiot President Ehard doesn't find out that I am chatting with you."

I instinctively looked around and saw that there was no sign of the Miss President around, so I whispered, "Don't say you're lazy, I just want to ask you something, it won't take much time."

"Ask about something? What?" Miss Sophie asked while sorting the magic stones on the table.

I sorted out my thoughts for a while and asked all the questions in one breath: "Although it may be a little abrupt, I want to know how old you are, Miss Sophie? In addition, since Miss Raftan is your sister, do you also have barbarian blood in you? And are barbarians considered a kind of human?"

"Um, are these issues important to Gu Shan?"

Somehow, Miss Sophie showed an uncomfortable expression on her face.

Did I ask the wrong question again?

Seeing this, I quickly shook my head and replied, "No, no, no, it's just about the result of a love divination. If you don't want to answer, Miss Sophie, please don't force yourself."

"You are too polite. Gushan, your question is not a difficult one. It is just due to some personal reasons. In order to avoid excessive speculation and misunderstanding, I usually don't mention the bloodline of my two sisters. If my bloodline is related to your marriage, Sophie, as a member of the Stone House, will naturally help as much as I can."

"Thank you, Sophie!"

Looking at the kind-hearted Miss Sophie, I almost couldn't help but hug her──

"Then let's charge five silver coins at our discretion."

"what?"

The next moment, I was stunned when I saw the noble girl extending her hand to me.

Seeing my confused look, Miss Sophie rolled her eyes in annoyance and said, "Please, this is a place for business. Even if it is information that I was born with, I can't tell you for free, right?"

I complained wordlessly, "No, it's usually free, right?"

"There is no such thing as a free lunch!" Miss Sophie said in a reasonable manner, "What you think you get for free actually requires you to pay for it in places you can't see. If I don't charge you today, then you will owe me a favor. When I ask you for help, it will be difficult for you to refuse me due to the pressure of favor. Do you understand?"

"Uh……"

I thought about it seriously...

After thinking twice...

After thinking three times...

After thinking it over, I asked myself seriously, "I don't understand, why is it so hard for me to refuse you if I owe you a favor?"

"Don't you really understand? Favors are a kind of transaction. If Miss Monkey helps Mr. Lion pick fruit today, then Mr. Lion should also let Miss Monkey have a share when he returns from hunting tomorrow. But if Miss Monkey doesn't pick fruit for Mr. Lion once, how will Mr. Lion feel when he is expecting something?"

At the end of her words, Sophie looked towards me.

I replied: "Mr. Lion should be disappointed, right?"

Miss Sophie asked again: "In this case, is Miss Monkey wrong for terminating the trading relationship without authorization?"

I thought for a moment and answered, "That depends on whether there is an actual agreement between them."

"What if not?"

Although he didn't know whether it was appropriate or not, he still tried his best to express his thoughts: "If not, then Miss Monkey is not wrong. On the contrary, if Mr. Lion is angry with Miss Monkey because of this matter, then Mr. Lion is the one who holds the wrong idea, because once he feels unfair, it means that he has tacitly acknowledged that the relationship between them is just a personal relationship disguised as a benefit exchange."

"..."

After hearing my answer, Miss Sophie fell silent, then smiled and said, "Very good, your answer is very good, so good that I can no longer harden my heart to accept your money."

"Well?"

Why did Miss Sophie suddenly say she wouldn't charge any money?

"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense. It will be troublesome if customers come to do business later."

Under my puzzled gaze, Miss Sophie spoke about herself: "In fact, sister Raftan and I are half-sisters. We both inherited a small part of the dominant characteristics of barbarians. According to the mainstream theory of intelligent life science, mixed-bloods like us who have dominant sub-human characteristics are classified as sub-humans."

After hearing this, I considered my choice of words and asked carefully, "In other words, Miss Sophie, you are not human?"

"Yes, we are sub-humans," she said with a smile.

Now, Miss Sophie met three of the five conditions.

So I was pleasantly surprised and continued to ask, "How old are you, Miss Sophie?"

"You'll be fourteen in two months, what's wrong?"

"Is fourteen still considered a child for a half-blood barbarian?"

Miss Sophie looked confused for a moment on this question. "Well, sometimes even we ourselves don't understand our own situation, because everyone has their own situation as a mixed-blood. If I inherited the life span of a barbarian, I would probably only live for 50 to 60 years, which means that a 14-year-old is now considered an adult."

"But Miss Sophie still looks very young!"

After hearing my comment, Miss Sophie, who had been so friendly just now, smiled dangerously.
