Guild Boss's Ambition
Page 227
I was a little surprised.
Mr. Nanbert replied solemnly, "The murderer's frequency of committing crimes is very high. If we officially release the mission one minute later, there may be another victim. By the way, remember not to go to places with few people when you go out. By the way, bring the little Shiba Inu that chased me that day with you. Your own safety should be the first priority."
So, according to Mr. Nanbert's instructions, I snatched the guardian dog Xiaoban under Lian'er's extremely resentful eyes, and hurriedly summoned a carriage to go to the Adventurer's Association.
Just as my previous impression was, people who work in the Adventurer's Guild are a slow bunch. Once an emergency occurs, those sloth-like guys will be stuck by the layers of rules and regulations. They have no idea what flexibility or priorities mean. No matter how much I complain and act cute, they just keep reading from the script.
It took a long time. I arrived at 9 o'clock in the morning, but I didn't officially get the new task parchment book until dusk. The final result was that the REJECT proposed by our Stone House was successful. The Heart Hunter Monster subjugation mission was changed from the original platinum level to the sub-legendary level, and the mission reward was changed from 300 gold coins to 5,000 gold coins.
To put it simply, the so-called sub-legendary level is a task that can also be undertaken by a gold-level guild.
Since our guild had a White Night that was suspected to have become a legendary one, I did not transfer the rights to it, but brought it directly back to the stone house.
When I returned to the stone house, it was time for the mission assessor to get off work.
But Mr. Nanbert did not leave. He sat on the counter, holding a knight-errant novel, waiting for me.
Seeing this, I handed him a new assignment and joked with him, "If you often come home late, your wife will mistakenly think that you are cheating on her. This is the assignment you asked for. It seems that the association disagrees with your opinion."
After reading the new quest book, Mr. Nanbert trembled his ears slightly and said with a hint of regret, "It's only from Platinum to Sub-Legend? Hmm? Wait, five thousand gold coins? They gave a Sub-Legendary rating, but gave this Legendary quest a reward. What on earth is the Alliance thinking?"
I tried to speculate from the perspective of market supply and demand: "Could it be because there is a shortage of manpower?"
“Is that so?”
Mr. Nanbert looked at me with a hint of surprise, and agreed, "Perhaps this is the reason. The Wrath of Nature caused a large number of adventurers to leave, but due to the war, the amount of work that adventurers need to handle has increased instead of decreased. In order to clear the accumulated commissions as quickly as possible, the Federation has also relatively relaxed the review of tasks!"
When I heard what Mr. Nanbert said, I immediately felt angry.
"Won't this put the lives of the adventurers in danger?"
"In theory, we are not using this to criticize the federation's position."
Mr. Nanbert explained, "Our Adventurer's Guild has always been more inclined to protect our own adventurers, while the Adventurer's Union is more inclined to the client's side. The relationship between us is to complement each other and supervise each other. If we are accidentally taken advantage of, it is the fault of us, the task appraisers."
I see……
This is how the Federation and the various Guilds maintain market balance...
After understanding the essence of the matter, my annoyance subsided a little.
After thinking about it, I turned the subject back to the main topic.
"So, for this case, Mr. Nanbert, which one of us do you plan to assign to complete it?"
"For a confusing legendary mission like this, I would naturally entrust it to Miss Bai Ye."
Judging from Mr. Nanbert's tone, he seemed to have quite a bit of knowledge about Bai Ye.
I immediately asked curiously: "Mr. Nanbert, do you also know Bai Ye?"
Speaking of Bai Ye, Mr. Nanbert showed an admiring expression: "Of course, intelligence gathering is one of the most important tasks for us mission appraisers. We need to carefully analyze and investigate the personal information of senior adventurers such as Bai Ye and Raftan. What's more, Miss Bai Ye of our Stone House is such a dangerous necromancer."
At this point I couldn't help but remind him, "Mr. Nanbert, you'd better not investigate too deeply about Bai Ye."
Mr. Nanbert also hugged his arms and shuddered: "Yes, yes, it's really not appropriate to understand that woman's past too deeply. If it weren't for the president's guarantee for her, I would have almost resigned immediately."
"You don't have to exaggerate about being late, do you? Where have you investigated so far?"
"For example, the Morning Star Dragon in the last episode of Nature's Wrath? Or the fall of the North Sea Chamber of Commerce?"
I knew about the downfall of the North Sea Chamber of Commerce, because the Marching Wolf Rebellion was caused by the North Sea Chamber of Commerce. I remember that before returning to Mopolis City, Bai Ye said that she would deal with them herself, but I fell into a coma because of the Sirius incident at that time, and after waking up, I easily forgot about this matter.
"By the way, how did Bai Ye bring down the Beihai Chamber of Commerce?" I asked.
Mr. Nanbert twitched his cheeks with difficulty and said with a wry smile, "Miss Bai Ye solved them with a very perfect and peaceful method, but because it was very peaceful, it was also particularly despairing. She grasped the despicable side of the greedy people's human nature and made them indulge in evil step by step towards hell."
Since Bai Ye had already been bound by a soul contract at that time, she could only take that indirect approach.
In this regard, I don’t think Bai Ye needs to show any mercy to those evil people.
But if Mr. Nanbert is disgusted by such white nights, it would be a very tricky situation.
"Mr. Nanbert, do you disagree with Miss Bai Ye's approach?"
Hearing my question, Mr. Nanbert's smile seemed to become even more bitter. "It doesn't matter whether I personally agree or not. She did a perfect job in the affairs of the North Sea Chamber of Commerce. It's so perfect that it can be called the art of a conspirator. I don't want to comment on her. If she becomes our enemy, I swear I will be the first to desert."
Seeing Mr. Nanbert looking frightened, I couldn't help but chuckle.
"But for now she is our companion, isn't she?"
"Companions? Does she really consider us companions?"
Mr. Nanbert was deeply puzzled, but finally came to a conclusion in his confusion: "Forget it, since President Ehard thinks there is no problem with her, I don't want to say anything more. This matter of conquering the Heart Hunter monster will be handled by Miss Bai Ye. Miss Lan Nong, you are more familiar with her, so please notify her in person!"
Finally, Mr. Nanbert handed the mission scroll to me.
Until now, he still seems very afraid of Bai Ye.

6. Task Arrangement (Little Blue)
(Ulu-Lannon)
That night, according to Mr. Nanbert's instructions, I told Bai Ye about the incident of conquering the Heart Hunter monster.
"No problem! Just leave it to me!"
Then Bai Ye's face was full of smiles and he agreed to take on this task.
Although Bai Ye was still the same as usual on the surface, I always felt that she was doing something secretly behind my back.
Well……
Anyway, in my mind, Bai Ye has been equated with the word mysterious, so I did not ask her about the private life of this necromancer this time, especially since the high elves have already retreated and without Gabriella, no matter how recklessly Bai Ye acts, she should not create the next Lila.
Hmm──that shouldn’t be the case, right?
The same kind of bad luck shouldn't happen twice, right?
In my wavering mood, I chose to forget it.
However, even if we cannot forget those sorrows, there are still some small happiness in our daily lives that make us want to live positively. For example, Luke built his own ideal in the ruined city. Even though he lost an arm in the war, he opened his own cat cafe in Mopolis.
At the same time, this bastard boy successfully poached people from our Stone House and brought our Tina and Oddo to his own cafe to work as maids and butlers. While Meng'er was still feeling sorry for the loss of two excellent employees, the boy also sent us an invitation letter for the opening of the new store, which made the president so angry that she was fuming.
"When the time comes, I will definitely bring all my men and horses to bankrupt him."
However, Meng'er, who said this, probably also sincerely wished that the former employee's dream would come true.
Compared to the extremely unfortunate Bai Ye, the young Luke is a fool with good fortune.
A few days after the war, Bai Ye handed over the research results of limb resurrection to the official of the Alliance of Light and other various forces in accordance with the agreement she had made with Hai Lao. With the cooperation of many parties, trading projects related to limb reshaping services soon appeared in the city of Mopolis, bringing great hope to all those who were disabled due to the war.
Unfortunately, since the technology is not yet mature, the cost of the operation seems to be quite high.
But I believe that as long as Luke can sell a few more cups of coffee every day, his lost right hand will be able to grow back in the near future. By then, the fifth girl on his left hand will face the crisis of falling out of favor──
On the third day after work, I sat next to Mr. Nanbert with a serious face, making up dirty jokes in my mind that only I understood. If I had to say that Mr. Nanbert had any shortcomings, it would probably be that he was too normal. He was so normal that I didn't have any feelings at all and could joke around in front of him. He was just a common-sense person who did things with common sense!
"This is not the style of our stone house!"
“That’s right! There’s nothing cute about a good-natured guy!”
"I miss Ebi so much. If Ebi were still here, there would be endless collections of Gunposhu at the counter──"
"Hmm? Wait? A collection of beauties? Oh! You can have this! You must have this!"
Sola!
While I was thinking secretly with Berlane's expression, I suddenly stood up from Mr. Nanbert.
"What's wrong, Miss Lannong?" Mr. Good asked with a smile.
"Excuse me! I'll be back in about five minutes."
I responded with a serious expression and ran out quickly.
I went to the grocery store that Hai Lao used to go to and bought a total of ten issues of Qunfang Ji in one go.
The old woman in charge of the store asked about Hai Lao's whereabouts and said that the change she gave him last time was fifty silver coins short.
I told her the news about Hai Lao truthfully, and she handed me the remaining money with regret. She joked that I looked like his granddaughter, and said that giving it to me was giving it to him. She also said that she had no habit of owing the deceased. It seemed that when the business of this grocery store was not good, Hai Lao would often deliberately give the old lady a little more money and then turn away.
Although Ebi is gone, he still left me with many memories everywhere in the stone house.
Even though I just wanted to buy some magazines to relieve my boredom, his lingering interest still moved me.
The new guy, Mr. Nanbert, was also a bad guy with sharp eyes. Even though I had tried to hold back my tears, he still sensitively noticed my mood and handed me a piece of toilet paper.
"Miss Lannon? Is there something sad?"
Although he is a fine gentleman, I don't need a man's shoulder.
I shook my head, politely rejected his tenderness, forced a smile, and gave him a photo album as a prank.
"Hey! Here's a copy for you. Don't let your wife see it──"
"Uh, thank you..."
Mr. Nanbert had a very subtle expression when he received the Qunfangji. It seemed that getting photo album props from a twelve-year-old girl was far beyond his understanding. But I didn't care whether I would be seen as an alien in the eyes of others. After giving the previous issue of Qunfangji to Mr. Nanbert, I carelessly flipped through the magazine with the photos of my predecessors printed on it in public.
Actually, if you think about it carefully, being a poster girl has its advantages.
At least when looking at the photo album, you will definitely not be regarded as a suspicious pervert by outsiders.
then……
A true pervert has emerged.
"My dear little Lan~~ Can I hold you for a while to replenish my energy~~"
I don't know when, the evil Miss President had sneaked up behind me and made very rude gestures towards my two little pigeons. At this time, the former good man Nanbert instantly turned into a coward who succumbed to power. He just turned his eyes away and looked out the window, pretending to sigh at the beautiful scenery outside, and had no intention of standing up for me at all.
"No, no, no, now is not the time to think about these things!"
"If Meng'er keeps rubbing me, my body will become weird again!"
Recalling what happened at the Windmill Arena, I quickly slammed the notebook in my hand into the president's face, then pushed her aside, dodged behind Mr. Nanbert who was just there, and shouted, "Don't come over here again! Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you've reached the Platinum level! If you come over here again, I'll call the police and have you arrested and put in jail!"
Facing my illness, Meng'er still danced her ten flexible fingers like an octopus.
She first looked at Mr. Nanbert and smiled devilishly.
"Mr. Nanbert, you should have other things to do, right?"
"I-I'll go make some coffee! I'll be back in about five minutes!"
"Yeah! Five minutes will be enough!"
Under the instigation of his evil employer, Mr. Loser quickly left the scene.
Being abandoned, I was immediately plunged into an unprecedented crisis of chastity.
"Hu! Hu! Hu!"
"No - don't go - ah!"
In full view of everyone, Sister Menger launched the final general attack on me. It was another round of eroticism that was somewhere between a prank and sexual harassment. The comfortable feeling made me unable to help myself and I fell limply into the arms of the Miss President. No matter how I struggled, the script still unfolded in the end - I said no with my mouth, but my body was very honest - it developed...
"Why……"
"Why isn't the passive skill of the protagonist, such as head-patting kill, mine?"
"Why am I the one being patted on the head? There is definitely something wrong with this youth romance script!"
As I was filled with grief and anger, the magical claw suddenly left my head.
As if it was instinct, I actually followed the comfortable feeling and moved forward -
……
Sure enough, I immediately saw that damn female pervert giving me a mischievous look.
"Do you like being touched by me so much?"
who……
Who can help me chop this ruthless guy off? !
Faintly, I heard the sound of my male self-esteem crumbling in my mind. I gnashed my teeth and yelled at the instigator in front of me, "What are you doing here? Please be careful with your behavior! This is the third floor! This is our territory! This is not a place where you can do whatever you want! If you want to indulge your desires, then go find your good Berlane!"
"Don't worry! I also gave fair regards to Berlane!"
