Guild Boss's Ambition

"Ms. Lannong, is this really okay?" I asked.

The adult-like little poster girl smiled gently and replied, "In fact, we didn't deliberately let her go in a certain direction. What guided her was this colorful world. She went forward because of curiosity, and she left behind memories because she liked it. She is a kind child. As long as it is something she likes, I will always support her decision."

Hearing the little girl's motherly words, Ruan's heart burst into laughter, and at the same time, he felt a little more intuitive curiosity and expectation. You know, this Lannong girl was the key figure that made Ruan's scheming mother completely miscalculate. If she hadn't appeared, the stone house would probably no longer exist in this city of Mopolis, and would have become a history of the adventure world in a withered manner.

So, Ruan asked her a question.

"Xiao Lan, what about you? What do you want?"

Hearing this, she was stunned for a moment, then a twilight smile appeared on her face.

“I like to do what I can do.”

79. Kappa's Drunken Words (Lian'er)

(Lian Er)

After playing with Sister Doris, I immediately took the time to go to the third floor to find Sister Xiaolan.

As a result, Grandpa Hai said that Sister Xiaolan had gone alone to do other things.

This also means that my afternoon tea dessert today is also ruined.

Without Sister Xiaolan's permission, even Miss Kololo didn't dare to prepare food for me. There was once a time when Uncle Stallone secretly made a honey pancake for me, but I don't know who told on the matter, and Sister Xiaolan, who was on the third floor, found out about it as soon as she got off work, which caused Uncle Stallone to look troubled for the next week.

I heard that the reason why Uncle Stallone was so troubled at that time was actually all because of a novel.

It seems to be called something like "The Innocent Chef's Assistant"? What a weird title.

Since I didn't see Little Blue, I went to the bar to find Sister Annie. Like Sister Berlane and the others, Sister Annie always had some delicious little things hidden around her. So how did they get so many delicious candies? Where did the gold coins in everyone's wallets come from?

Looking at Sister Annie working from afar, I suddenly thought of a question that I had never thought about before.

Then, I saw a customer handing gold coins to Sister Anne.

"The money comes from selling alcohol."

I made this inference, and then I had new questions.

"So where did Sister Annie get her wine?"

“Oh… it seems like it will never end if I continue thinking about it, so I won’t think about it anymore.”

It only took me four seconds to give up pondering this profound question. I just held Little Spot in my arms and, with a longing for candy, excitedly went to Sister Annie to see if I could get some delicious dessert.

“Awoo!” “Woof woof!”

Xiaoban and I greeted her with full energy.

"Good evening, Lian'er and Xiaoban."

Sister Annie gently touched my head and Xiaoban's head, and said with a considerate smile: "Although I also want to give you candy and pork, just two minutes ago, Xiaolan came over to remind all of us not to feed you, saying that you and Xiaoban pushed Sister Doris to the ground, making her butt full of dust──"

I looked at Xiaoban coldly.

Xiaoban looked up at me aggrievedly.

I patted its head and forgave it for its poor performance.

Since I couldn't get any food from Sister Annie, I had to nod and say goodbye to her politely, and turned away with Xiaoban, who was in the same boat as me. At this moment, a voice suddenly called us.

"Hey! Little sister, don't leave yet, come here."

A big sister with cat ears called me. She was holding a cup of pink strawberry-flavored ice cream in her left hand and kept waving at me with her right hand. The expression on her face was exactly the same as that of the uncles who usually fed Lian'er.

Seeing this, I immediately walked back quickly.

"I've already taken two bites, but if you don't mind, please use—"

"Tina, is it really okay for you to pamper her like this?"

"No, no, no, aren't girls meant to be spoiled?"

Amidst the discussion between Sister Annie and Sister Catwoman, I took the ice cream from the latter without hesitation.

Since I had only seen ice cream but never eaten the real thing, I licked it immediately!

Uh...

So cold! So sweet! So delicious!

Based on the principle of sharing the sweetness, after tasting the flavor, I passed the ice cream to the little spot so that he could have a taste as well.

result……

"Aww!"

The next scene made me scream with excitement. This stupid dog actually bit off the whole ice cream in one bite!

Hey, hey, hey! This is really too much!

I clenched my fists and looked at Xiaoban coldly.

Xiaoban looked up at me with a wronged look──

I punched him gently on the head and forgave him.

At least he ate most of the ice cream and left me the cookie tube as a container.

Click, click, click, click…

Although I feel a little sad about the ice cream, the cookie cones are actually quite delicious.

After contentedly soothing my rumbling stomach, Xiaoban and I thanked the kind-hearted cat girl and walked towards the storyteller in the bar area. Today's storyteller was still the very funny old grandfather. He had hundreds of different voices and could perfectly portray anyone from a little boy to an old lady. His skills were simply amazing.

However, the grandfather’s most amazing thing is not his changeable voice.

His greatest talent was his ability to make boring stories told by others become vivid and interesting. For example, the history of ancient Lorraine told by teacher Isabella became one thrilling legend of characters after another in the old man's mouth, which not only prevented me from falling asleep, but also allowed me to remember the content of the story firmly in my mind without realizing it.

As usual, the old man had quite a few listeners today, and there was also a familiar-looking person.

"Why is Sister Gushan still here after work? It's rare."

"Did she come to listen to the story alone?"

Seeing Sister Gushan sitting alone in a corner of the bar, I was curious and immediately walked over to say hello to her.

Sister Xiaolan said that when you see someone you know, you must remember to say hello, otherwise it would be very rude.

“Awoo!” “Woof woof!”

"Good night, Lian'er, Xiaoban."

When she saw me appear, Sister Gushan's expression looked a little strange.

So I made a sign to her: "What's wrong?"

Although Gu Shan's sign language was not as good as mine, she seemed to understand what I meant and answered my question: "You're asking me what I'm doing here? It's okay for you to tell Lian'er, but you must not tell anyone! If you nod, I'll take it as your consent! In fact, I'm secretly observing Senior Annie at work."

Observe Sister Anne?

I gave Sister Gu Shan a sign language that I use most often: "Why?"

For some reason, Sister Gushan's face suddenly turned red and hot.

"Children don't need to know about adult matters."

She shyly replied to me with this remark, although it sounded a bit hurtful, but I believe it was just because Sister Gushan said it unintentionally. Moreover, in terms of age alone, Sister Gushan was born in April, while Sister Baiye said I was born in May. If you think about it carefully, Sister Gushan is also a child in the eyes of adults.

I nodded slightly dejectedly, then picked up Xiaoban and sat next to her.

Not long after I sat down, a green-skinned, pointy-mouthed weirdo also sat down at our table.

The sharp-mouthed weirdo glanced at the two of us, hiccuping and drunkenly saying, "Excuse me, I am Xiao Xixi Wild Deer, a poet. Because there are a lot of guests in your stone house tonight, there are no empty seats around. I wonder if I have the honor of sitting at the same table with the two young ladies today?"

"Sir, please take a seat! Uh, I'm just asking, sir, are you... a Kappa?"

Sister Gushan seemed a little dumbfounded when she saw the strange man with a pointed mouth.

The pointy-mouthed weirdo nodded and sat down and answered, "From a biological point of view, I am indeed a kappa."

Kappa?

A term I have never heard of...

I looked Mr. Xiao Xixi up and down and found his bald head very interesting.

After sitting down, Mr. Xiao Xixi, who was already drunk, picked up the bottle in his hand and kept pouring the unpalatable drink that made him dizzy and sleepy into his mouth. He drank so much that his green skin gradually turned red.

"Hiccup...hiccup..."

After finishing the bottle of wine, Mr. Kappa narrowed his long eyes and cast his gaze around the bar.

However, nothing in our stone house bar seemed to attract his attention.

He withdrew his gaze with boredom and looked at me and Sister Gushan, who were sitting at the same table with him.

"belch……"

He burped and asked into the air, "Friend, what are you worried about?"

"Eh?"

Sister Gushan seemed very surprised by Mr. Kappa's question.

After a while, Mr. Kappa said to Xiaoban in my arms: "If you have troubles, go and solve them! There are no troubles in this world that cannot be solved by the Doomsday Judgment. If there are, then -"

"Then...hiccup..." Mr. Kappa shook his green head and said drunkenly, "Then go to the forest park in Mopolis City to find a flower. It is a miracle that only blooms in winter. According to ancient legends, only kind-hearted children can find it, and it has the ability to fulfill all wishes."

"Mr. Kappa, why are you telling us all this?" Sister Gushan asked anxiously.

"What did I say to you?" Mr. Kappa asked Sister Gushan in a half-asleep state.

"You said there is a flower that can make any wish come true." Sister Gushan said excitedly.

"Oh! It's true! It's true! But few people can find it out."

Mr. Kappa began to repeat to his empty bottle: "It's just a fairy tale. No one believes in fairy tales. Even children don't believe in stories of this level. But it is true. I am sure it is true because I found it in the forest and fulfilled my wish with it..."

"Is everything you said true?" Sister Gushan asked again.

Mr. Kappa answered the question irrelevantly, with a look of stupidity on his face: "Stories are always false in some places. What adults tell children is always false. It is impossible to fulfill all wishes. However, it is both a beautiful flower and a solid seed. With only sunlight and water, it can bloom into a small miracle - Ugh!"

did not expect……

Before he could finish his words, Mr. Kappa had already vomited sour and smelly liquid all over the floor of our stone house.

Once again, it's proven that bad tasting drinks can lead to bad consequences.

But everyone just likes to use gold coins to buy these inferior liquors instead of sweet candies.

Because of this pile of vomit, Xiaoban and I said goodbye to Sister Gushan early.

Next it’s time to have dinner with Sister Xiaolan and the others.

80. News from the Monster (Little Blue)

(Ulu-Lannon)

strangeness.

Very strange.

That silly girl Gu Shan didn't come to see me all night yesterday and even this morning.

Although today is her day off, given her personality of always forcing me to know everything, there is no reason for her not to tell me if she wants to go home to visit her relatives. Even Sister Annie has no news from her at all.

"What the hell is she planning to do this time..."

"If a normally noisy guy suddenly becomes quiet, it would be scary."

At noon after lunch, I helped Hai Lao sort out the latest task list released by the Adventurer's Association.

Generally speaking, the tasks issued by our guild come from two sources.

One is the [Kit Tasks] collected and distributed by the Adventurer's Association, an organization spread across the alliance.
