Uncle, I am not an ordinary office worker.

.......

“Ding ding ding—!”

"Hello, I'm Mauna... Oh, it's the boss. Why am I late... I'm very sorry. Something happened at home. Please allow me to apply for personal leave according to the company's standards. I know, I know, I'm very sorry for delaying the project, but this time it is necessary. Please consider my usual... Yes, I understand. I will take the initiative to apply to the Finance Department to cancel this month's bonus. OK, goodbye."

After saying goodbye to the person on the other end of the phone in a humble tone, Maenna hung up the phone and looked at the first floor of the Linguang Mansion which had been completely destroyed, and let out a long sigh.

Roy stood aside, looking at Maria and Zofia who were standing in the ruins in a daze. They were also gray and white. He looked a little embarrassed and ashamed: "I actually thought about whether I should come out to fight again, but you had already drawn your sword, so I just..."

"It's okay." Mainna shook her head, tore off her half-remaining tie and her suit that had become a belly- and back-exposing outfit, estimated the cost of reconstruction, renovation, lost work time, and the purchase of new furniture and clothes, then she sighed deeply for the second time and silently postponed her annual vacation for another year.

Seeing his expression, Roy asked with some concern: "Well, how about I compensate you a little? After all, I made you like this."

But Ma Enna refused decisively. She held the wallet that no longer existed with her hands and shook her head, saying, "No need. I volunteered."

"I lost." He said slowly, without being stubborn or hysterical.

The moment the meteor's light bloomed, his defeat was doomed. Maenna attributed his failure to many reasons. First, he was determined to stop Roy, but he was still too arrogant and did not attack him the moment Roy drew his sword, so he lost the opportunity. Second, he was too conservative and careless in his expectation of Roy's strength, so that when they fought, he did not consider how to defeat his opponent first, but how to convince Maria after defeating Roy. Finally, and most importantly, he was confused at the last moment.

On the battlefield, it was an absolute taboo to hesitate because of the enemy's words. A moment of distraction could cause eternal regret, let alone when facing an opponent like Roy. If Roy had not intended to kill him, when the meteor broke through the temporary light rain defense line he had built, it should not have aimed at the Linguang family emblem behind him, but at his heart.

Thinking back, how long had it been since he last carried a sword and how long had it been since he last practiced?

He is now much worse than he was at his peak. He can't even protect the Linguang family's emblem. Even if he really finds his brother and sister-in-law, how can he bring them back to Casimir?

Mainna thought for a long time, and his answer was nothing, but his action was to take off his tattered new suit, leaving only the hard old arm armor.

The time has come. After he pays off the debt for this renovation, saves up 100,000 yuan, and accumulates enough for three months of annual leave, he will go find his brother and sister-in-law, and then let Casimir give Lin Guang justice!

Since there is no road anyway, why not create one yourself? Maybe if more people walk on it, a road will emerge?

Well, roughly speaking, it will take another ten to eight years!

Thinking about the plan that was "so close at hand", Mahenna was still worried about one last thing. After a moment of silence, he looked at Roy and asked in a low voice:

"Roy, did the Wuzhou League instruct you to do all this?"

"No." Roy shook his head.

According to Monique and Xintelaiya, old man Xuantie has rarely asked about the affairs of the Wuzhou Alliance during this period. He seems to be working together with the other two bosses to plan something, so that he disappeared in a short period of time. For a moment, Monique was a little panicked. Could it be that he has been doing too badly recently and his performance is too poor, so the boss ran away with his sister-in-law and the money?

Fortunately, Roy knew some of the background and guessed that Xuantie was probably hiding in some deep forest, researching and developing hand sanitizer. He then persuaded and calmed Monique. "Anyway, those three old guys are rarely seen all year round. Even if they disappear, it won't affect the operation of the Wuzhou Alliance. You should continue to do your work, and Xiao Baijin will not reduce his overtime work. Why rush? At worst, we can be our own bosses and pay ourselves."

As for asking them to pay attention to what Roy is doing now, haha, if they read the newspaper and see the news about Roy in the newspaper, they will probably be secretly happy!

When he defeated the Rusted Bronze Knight, the newspapers and the internet were full of all kinds of reports praising him. But now that he defeated the Candle Knight, there were only a few media outlets that dared to report on him in great detail. What did this mean? It meant that Roy made them feel threatened! The method of praising him to death was not working!

If you want to praise someone to death, you must at least ensure that you have the ability and method to make him fall from the top. If not, then the praise will be free publicity, and you will praise him higher and higher until he becomes a "hero". By then, not only will his fame be too high to end well, but there is also the possibility of backlash.

"I can assure you that the reason why I took on the job of Maria's mentor, from the beginning to now, and in the future, is all personal behavior and has nothing to do with the No Hero Alliance."

"Maria is very talented. I am a kind person. Helping others is helping myself. But you, Mauna, don't you realize it?"

"What did you notice?" Mainna frowned and asked with some interest.

Roy turned his gaze towards Maria, who was picking up a broom and trying to clean up the ruins. He said:

"Her current dream is borrowed. She is just imitating Margaret and wants to be a partner of justice. She has not yet found her own way. Is this why you are so against us?"

Ignoring Roy's somewhat strange statement, Mayna finally nodded: "To be honest, it is true."

"But we can't help her with this matter. The person who tied the bell must untie it."

【Submit? 】

Looking at the submission panel given by the system, Roy shrugged.

"reject."

This land doesn't need another Margaret exactly like her.

Maria Linguang is Maria Linguang, she has her own way of shining!

As a teacher, he can't give up halfway!

PS: High EQ: Maria’s story is about growth

Low EQ: Roy wants to play the loli training game!

Volume 1: Chapter 36 Who in the World Does Not Know You?

"Grand Knight Commander, you can't just ignore this matter!"

"Mr. Russell, the Linguang family is a heroic family in Casimir. Now Mayenna is alone with two children, and her house was bombed. This kind of scandal happened in Casimir. If we don't punish the criminal severely, it will be a disgrace if it gets out!"

"That's right, Grand Knight Commander. The Supervisory Council should immediately file a lawsuit with the National Council. Our Chamber of Commerce will definitely lend a hand!"

In front of the large mahogany desk, the aged yet healthy female knight sat in an armchair, steam still wafting from the coffee cup in her hand. However, the desk in front of her was already filled with various "petition" documents, with not even a place to put down her teacup.

Hearing the words of the representative of the Commercial Federation, the female knight raised her eyebrows slightly, looked up at him with interest, and asked:

"Do you really want to seek justice for the Linguang family, or do you intend to suppress a knight who disobeys your orders in the name of seeking justice?"

As if he had not expected the Grand Knight Commander to speak so bluntly, the representative's face turned pale with embarrassment, and he stammered:

"Well, how is that possible? Of course I respect Casimir as a war hero. If Cyril knew about this, he would be angry..."

"Sir Cyril has been gone for two years."

"When does he come back?"

"......" Russell was silent for a moment, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and when he opened his eyes again, his tone was already somewhat unfriendly, "He may never come back, but I can send you to see him, how about it?"

Having said that, it meant that he understood what Russell meant by "leaving". He forced an awkward smile on his face and waved his hand.

Not wanting to talk to this lackey of the Business Federation, the Grand Knight turned aside and coldly ordered him to leave: "Well, I don't want to say anything that is not conducive to unity. Go away. I will pay attention to this matter."

The representative opened his mouth, but finally said tactfully, "I understand." He stood up and prepared to leave, but as soon as he turned around, he heard the Grand Knight Commander's warning voice again:

"I'd like to remind you in advance that in order to ensure judicial fairness, the Supervisory Commission has no right to interfere with the legal decisions of the National Council. The same goes for the Federation of Commerce. I don't want to hear any news about this. Do you understand?"

"Understood." The representative nodded, turned and left, with a smug smile on his face.

Warn the Chamber of Commerce not to interfere with judicial justice. Haha, the prerequisite for interfering with something is that that thing must also exist.

It was just a phone call from the spokesperson.

He walked straight out of the reception hall of the Supervisory Council and as he pushed the door open, another golden figure strode in.

The representative turned his head and glanced at the man, a blond man named Kuranta, wearing a wrinkled old suit, looking like a ruined noble. There were too many people like him in Casimir now, and he didn't want to pay more attention to him, so he retracted his gaze and walked away.

At the same time, Mayenna also withdrew his gaze from the representatives and said to the knights in the reception hall:

"Looking for the Grand Knight Commander."

"You are... Lord Maenna! Long time no see! Are you finally going to..."

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just here to solve some unnecessary trouble." Maenna raised his hand and interrupted the knight's next words. The receiving knight nodded immediately, turned around and trotted into the office of the Grand Knight Commander. After a while, he trotted out again, nodded solemnly to Maenna, and said, "The Grand Knight Commander is waiting for you, please."

"Thank you." Ma Enna nodded slightly and walked in.

The spacious office was filled with a classical atmosphere that did not match the times. The knight's armor hung on the brackets beside the wall, the crossed swords hung on the wall, the weapons of the long-dead Casimir heroes were displayed in the display cabinets, and the flags and photos of the knights who had died in the war were framed. All of them reminded anyone who came that the lady in this office had an extraordinary identity in the Grand Knight Cavaleliagi - she was not a watered-down competitive knight built up by money and publicity, but a real knight!

The Grand Knight of Casimir, a contemporary of Cyril Linguang, the leader of the current Casimir Knights, and the promoter of the reform of the Council of Justice - Russell, a legend.

However, at this moment, the legend was leaning against his desk, his eyes deep and sad, staring at the empty ceiling, holding a slightly cold coffee in his hand, lost in thought, and he did not turn back even when Ma Enna entered.

"Grand Knight Commander." It was Manna who took the initiative to call out, awakening Russell from his deep thoughts. "Are you okay?"

"Thank you for your concern, Myna. I haven't seen you for a long time. I really hope you can come and spend more time with me, an old man." Russell smiled brightly, looking at Myna with a look of heartache and love.

Only she knows best how much Ma Enna has paid, endured, and lost for the Linguang family over the years.

This Lin Guang was proud and unruly when he was young, and restrained in his middle age. He was not as outstanding and admired as his father, nor as talented and natural leader as his brother, but there is no doubt that he is also a real Lin Guang, and he has never let his family name be tarnished!

"I heard that your house was destroyed by a new jockey. Do you have a place to live now? I can help you arrange it." Russell took the initiative to ask. But Ma Enna shook her head unexpectedly.

"That's why I came here," said Manna. "I volunteered for Roy's case. I hope the Supervisory Board will not file a lawsuit with the National Council."

"What?" Russell suspected that he had heard wrongly, and asked in surprise, "You volunteered? But the Linguang Mansion has been the residence of the Linguang family for a hundred years. Even in the most difficult times, you have never given up on it. Now it has been destroyed, and you actually said that you volunteered?"

However, Mauna's voice did not hesitate at all, and she answered calmly and firmly: "That's right."

Russell's face suddenly calmed down, and a light flashed in his eyes as he looked at Mayna: "Mayna, could it be that you..."

"It is meaningless to continue to stick to the century-old tradition. It is time for us to make a change." Ma Enna said calmly, with an enlightened look, "This change may be so drastic that we can't bear it, but in the end, we have to persevere."2

Just like the destroyed Linguang Mansion, Mainna planned to completely transform its internal structure after reconstruction, replace the outdated facilities, connect antennas, the Internet, and a pipeline delivery system so that people can get newspapers without leaving home.

Without destruction, there is no construction!

"I see." Russell said happily from the bottom of his heart, "But I still want to ask, why did you suddenly change your mind?"

"Opportunities always exist, right in front of you, why bother asking me?" Maena said, turning away without any reluctance.

He also had to go to the Chamber of Commerce and the Knights' Association to dispel the possibility of them filing a lawsuit.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile at himself.

Haha, if the representative of the Chamber of Commerce knew a little about the Linguang family, he could have done it here and saved the travel expenses for a trip to the Chamber of Commerce.

Unfortunately, the name Lin Guang is just a useful label for them, knowing the result but not the reason. I recognize him, but he does not recognize me without the words "I am Lin Guang" hanging around my neck.

This is the truth. In the past, he was completely disappointed with these things. But now, he has some expectations.

He wanted to see how Roy, the leader of the No-Hero Alliance who seemed to know everything, would fulfill his big words and change everything.

Volume 1: Chapter 37 Xuantie: My daughter follows me, stop being stubborn!

Casimir, Kavaleraki, outside the city.

In the ownerless forest that was large enough to overlook the bright lights and revelry of Casimir, an old hunter was returning with a freshly hunted beast. Seeing a newspaper stuffed in the mailbox at the door, he raised his eyebrows, wiped his bloody hands on his clothes, and walked in.

"You're back, old man." Holding a strange cylindrical object in her mouth, the woman in the room raised her head from the sofa that was half a meter shorter, looked towards the door, and raised her hand to greet him.

"Why did you think of coming to my place when you have time?" A loving smile appeared on Xuan Tie's face. He threw the camel cub in his hand into the kitchen sink and asked while washing his hands.

The woman on the sofa took a deep breath and exhaled a cloud of smoke, but it did not have the pungent smell of traditional cigarettes, which surprised Lao Xuantie. Hearing Lao Xuantie's question, her face seemed a little melancholy and worried, and she slowly said:

"Just take a look at the newspaper I brought you, and you'll know."

"newspaper?"

Old Xuantie wiped his hands on the towel, reached out and picked up the newspaper that was placed on the table when he entered the room. The big faces of Roy and Mainna on the front page headline came into view again.

Why did I use "again"? Old Xuantie wondered, he couldn't count how many times he had seen Roy's recognizable face in the newspaper. The self-proclaimed "most handsome man in the Knights" and "pillar of the No-Hero Alliance" had been exposed to an absurd degree recently, with nine out of ten articles featuring him and the remaining one also being related to him.

Even this was the result of the Business Federation suppressing the heat. The spies that Lao Xuantie had planted in the Business Federation had reported to him more than once that the top leaders of the Federation had forced those merchants who wanted to reach a business cooperation with Roy to give up their plans.

Otherwise, Roy would have made a fortune long ago.

Oh, it seems that he is saying that he does not accept investment.

Old Xuantie pursed his lips in regret. Oh, Roy, this is a huge sum of money. If it could be used as the start-up capital of Source Stone Cloud, the scale of the company could at least increase several times. If he was the spokesperson, maybe he could even attend the joint meeting of the Business Federation. What a pity!

"You old man, that's someone else's money, what does it have to do with you!"

As if she had guessed what Old Xuantie was thinking, the woman cursed him unkindly.

"Besides, shouldn't you be a little concerned about your subordinate?"

A teasing smile appeared on Old Xuantie's face: "Am I worried, or are you, my dear daughter, worried?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" The woman's ears immediately turned red when her mind was guessed, and she quickly retorted, "It was you who gave him the order to cause some trouble for the Business Federation to divert their attention. But now he not only caused some trouble, but also opened the eyes of those businessmen. I heard that they are planning to find someone to deal with Xiao Luo...your subordinates! Don't you care about it and solve the trouble you created?"

"Hahahahahaha, that's right, that's right, my daughter thinks a lot."

Old Xuantie laughed heartily, patted his thick chest, and said:

"Don't worry. Since I gave the order in the first place, no matter how big a fuss he makes, I can handle it. What's more, I have seen all kinds of situations. This is just a small matter. It's just defeating a Candle Knight. It's just a small matter."

"According to the intelligence, he just defeated Maenna, um, Maenna with a drawn sword."

"Um?!"

The old black iron camel-cutting beast's knife almost cut his own finger, and a high-pitched groan came out of his throat.
