It doesn't matter what the lord is.

Expecting a bad guy to suddenly have a change of heart and become a good person is simply a crazy idea.

Fileta looked at me with eyes full of tears and said with a smile:

"What about you? Do you think so too?"

Her lips trembled, and her hands tightly grasped the corners of her clothes:

"It's embarrassing to ask me, a half-demon, to guard the city for you, right? Besides, you already have such a strong guard."

Um? ?

Are you stupid??

Close your eyes and think about it. If I thought like this, why the hell would I save you?

Besides, Aleiya and I can't defend at all, okay? Only magicians can deal this kind of area damage, okay!

I shook my head and said sincerely:

"No, I can't. I'm not like them."

I paused, smiled and said:

"Because I have no shame at all."

Fileta was shocked:

"what??"

20. Do you deserve it? You don’t deserve it.

Facing Fileta's shocked look, I puffed out my chest with pride.

It's very comfortable if you don't feel ashamed but proud of it.

I analyzed it to her seriously:

"At that time, Pierce said that handing you over would solve the problem once and for all, so I acquiesced to his doing so because I didn't know anything about you or him, and I just wanted to live my life happily. But when I found that handing you over would not bring peace, and keeping you with me was the best option, I would go and save you. Sorry, I am such a real person. If you decide to stay, you will be my dog ​​from now on. I don't care if you are half demon or not, even if you are a demon, I don't care."

Fileta looked at me steadily, and I looked at her with a clear conscience.

After a moment, Fileta said softly:

"The people will not accept me. They may even... rebel against you, the city lord. You are a newcomer..."

This time it was Alayya who spoke.

She calmly placed her hand on the sword at her waist.

"It doesn't matter. As long as the young master speaks, there will only be one voice in Yuxi City in the future."

I rubbed my hair and said helplessly:

"It's not that exaggerated. But it's not that difficult to solve this problem. Your grandfather told you to protect humans before, right? In fact, humans are divided into some that are worth protecting and others that are not. You have also realized this to some extent, right? It's just that you can't do it. Because you can't do it, you just want to die... This is exactly the stupidest idea."

Fileta remained silent.

I leaned back in my chair and waited silently.

He looks as steady as an old dog, but he is actually very nervous.

It is still worth mentioning that he is handsome and saves the occasion, but I am afraid that Fileta will not buy it.

If she thinks about it for a long time and insists on feeding the demons, I can't do anything about it, but my life will be in trouble from now on. There is probably only one such precious magician in the world, and I don't know if I am lucky to have such luck. It is harder than climbing to the sky to recruit another magician.

At least my dad can't do it even with all the resources he has.

Moreover, if they are half-demon, they may break through the limits of human beings in the future. Mixing blood with demons means a whole new possibility.

silence.

silence.

There was a long silence.

Finally, Fileta raised her head and whispered:

"Feel sorry."

It’s so uncomfortable! !

I was given the nice guy card! My heart hurts so much!

Unexpectedly, at this moment, she continued:

"I have one more request, a small one. If you can do it, from now on, I will be yours... a lowly, begging dog."

Ah? ?

What is this, a sudden turn of events? ?

The sudden turn sprained my waist, okay? ?

Can't you just say it all at once? Do you have to surprise me with a first-come, first-served blow? Please take care of my heart.

Wait, wait, stop for a moment. Stay calm. It’s important to maintain your composure.

I asked slowly:

"what would you like?"

Fileta took a deep breath, placed her fair hands on her plump breasts, and said firmly:

"Please don't kill anyone. I hope that the people of Yuxi City can survive as long as possible, no matter who they are."

I looked up and asked:

"Even if they did this to you?"

Fileta nodded, clenched her fingers tightly, her knuckles turned white, and said with a wry smile:

"It's ok."

I stood up, looked at the ceiling, thought for a while, and answered:

"I agree to your request. When the dust settles, remember to fulfill your promise."

Fileta agreed with trembling lips.

I turned and walked towards the door, calling out:

"Let's go, Alayya."

Alayya followed without saying a word.

When the door closed, I stood at the door for a brief moment.

A sigh came from inside the house:

"It's okay... that's good..."

As if she was trying to convince herself, she was faintly crying. She probably tried her best to make this request to me. In her heart, those selfish, jealous people who killed other people's relatives for their own interests should also be punished. But she still said this to me, just to carry out the agreement she made with the old man to the end.

I looked back at Alayya, and Alayya was also looking at me.

When our eyes met, I asked:

"How about it? Let those people live?"

Alayya replied calmly:

"All is subject to the master's orders."

I laughed, and as I laughed, the corners of my mouth gradually fell.

I felt my voice was a little cold.

"Do they deserve to live?"

21. Eat meat stew on sticks

He kicked the ground with his toes and climbed up to the high wall with his hands. With a little effort, he flipped over into Pierce's yard.

At that moment, I didn't know what expression to make.

Yuxi City is so poor, but a noble like Pierce actually has pavilions, waterside pavilions, rockery and green bamboo in his home, and all the luxuries that should be available. He lives much richer than me, the fourth son of the Yunyang lord. It seems that his fat body is indeed justified. I just don't know how many people's blood and sweat were needed to build this courtyard, and how many people will be ruined because of their singing and laughing.

These are not my business.

But when I saw the dazzling array of things in the yard, I got angry for no reason!

Damn it, I, the Lord of Yuxi City, live in a small, shabby courtyard, and you old nobles in the city eat and drink delicious food? You dare to come to see me in patched clothes, looking so poor that you can't even afford to eat. What on earth do you want to do? You eat the meat yourself and don't even leave the soup for me. You are too much.

Today, I, Lid, will tell you——

I was the famous playboy in Lingyun City back then, bullying men and women and doing all kinds of evil things, known as the "lazy and idle fourth son". Under my rule, no one is allowed to surpass me in this regard, this is the dignity of a man, understand?

I tiptoed to the main hall and stood outside the door. There were at least 20 to 30 pretty ladies walking by. There were countless young servants, but Pierce didn't seem to have any sympathy for them - or rather, these maids didn't deserve his sympathy. They were all pale and skinny. The male servants were even worse. They were topless, carrying heavy things, looking pale, and staggering.

Isn't this typical labor exploitation?

You are still working so late, have you been paid overtime?

No?? That's too much.

I shook my head and just stood outside the door. The aroma of food and wine wafted out of the house, and not only the hungry maids and servants, but even I was salivating.

Really fragrant!

"Once Fileta dies, Lid will only have us to rely on. From now on, Yuxi City will still be ruled by us brothers."

Said the man with a mustache.

"Hey, what's there to be afraid of a kid who hasn't even grown all his hair yet? What kind of trouble can he cause? If he really had that ability, why would he be sent to our Yuxi City? If you ask me, anyone with a little bit of ability, even if he can't earn the title of lord, wouldn't be sent to this place, right?"

"That's true...but the woman following him is really beautiful."

"yes……"

"Yeah... Tsk."

"But it doesn't matter. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Anyway, he has to look up to us in the city now. If he wants to continue to be the city lord, he can only rely on us. After all, we not only control the money, food and army of the entire city, but we are also the only ones who can talk to the demons."

"Yes, we will contact the demons and ask them to attack Yuxi City a few more times to put on a show for us. We are not afraid of Lid. There will be a day when he kneels down to beg us. When we ask him for a maid, will he still refuse to give it to us?"

"It's just a pity that Fileta..."

"It would be nice if I could have a chance to play with it before I send you off."

"Forget it. You dare to touch the woman sent to the demons? What if the demons don't want to kill her but use her as a plaything? What if they find out that she is no longer a virgin and come to trouble us in anger?"

"Yes, yes, the demons are invincible. They are powerful and numerous..."

The group of people seemed to be a little drunk. One of them toasted Pierce and said incoherently:

"Brother Pierce, I have to toast you! Among all of us, you are the only one who is smart and capable of handling important matters. From now on, in private, you are our city lord, Guanaride, bullshit!"

Pierce held a heavily made-up woman in one hand. He patted the woman's bare back. The woman kissed the toasting man's glass, then took a sip of the wine and fed it to Pierce mouth-to-mouth. Pierce laughed and flirted with the woman in his arms, saying boldly:

"Yuxi? Yuxi! What's the point of fighting? It's useless. If you ask me, Fileta is a moron. She should have slept with the leader of the demon clan long ago. Anyway, her mother is not a decent woman. Isn't there a saying that a son inherits his father's business? It would be good for her to inherit her mother's slave nature early on. She pretends to be hypocritical all day long. Does she really think she is a good person? Bah."

The toasting person praised:

"That's right, it's impossible to win. Every year, we offer a group of women to the demons, and all problems will be solved. As for the people in the city, they have nowhere to run anyway, so why bother with them?"

"If this city is destroyed, we can just pack up and run away. We have money anyway..."

I really couldn't help but applaud after hearing this.

Growing up, I feel like I have become a very shameless person.

I didn’t expect that I would have the feeling of meeting a worthy opponent this time!

Is this a human? Why don't you take off your skin and let's see? Are you really not an undercover agent of the demon clan? Or are you actually the sons of the demon clan, calling them dad?

Besides, the entire Yuxi City belongs to me, Lide. How can you send things out without my permission? Who the hell indulges you?

I knocked on the door. There was silence at first, and then someone asked drunkenly:

"Who is so blind as to disturb us so late at night——"

I kicked the door open.

"Open the door! Nifeng Express, the stick stew you ordered has arrived. Please line up and pick it up!"
