Isn't this just a coincidence?
Chen Luo was just planning to collect some sinful souls.
As a result, someone delivered it to their door.
"You own your own bar at such a young age? That's amazing. By the way, have you ever seen a boy who wears a white headband, has spiky hair, and is about my age?" the black-haired girl asked.
"Oh, is this your companion?"
"Yes, that's right. His name is Iyeas. He's terrible with directions. He was looking for an inn, but now he's lost."
"It's a pity I've never seen it."
“Although the possibility is very small, have you seen a boy named Tatsumi, Mr. Shopkeeper? He was carrying a sword. The three of us were companions, but we were separated before we arrived in the capital because we encountered night thieves. Now that we’re in the capital, we don’t know where he is.” Sayo seemed a little worried.
“Tatsumi? I’ve never seen him before, but I can help you find him. I’m very good at finding people,” Chen Luo said after thinking for a moment.
"Really? Then I'll leave it to you." Sayo was pleasantly surprised.
[Ding! You have a new request!]
Chapter 848 Close the door, release Second Sister (Flandre)!
[Ding! You have a new request!]
[Finding Tatsumi]: Find Sayo's companion, Tatsumi.
Reward: 200 Primogems + Sayo's Affection Level 15.
Difficulty: 3 stars
"If possible, could you please help me find my lost companion as well? His name is Iyeas, as I mentioned earlier."
[Ding! You have a new request!]
【Finding fellow directionally challenged companions】: As the name suggests, it means finding companions.
Reward: 100 Primogems
Difficulty: Two stars
Chen Luo always had a feeling that the style of the missions would change slightly in each world, perhaps because of the need to adapt to local conditions.
For example, when accepting quests in the Moon World, you might occasionally see some rather unconventional notes.
In the world of Akame ga Kill!, mission descriptions are incredibly brief.
For example, right now.
However, it's a bit of a double standard that you get 15 favorability points when you talk to Tatsumi, but no favorability points when you talk to Ieyasu.
Of course, this is probably also related to the difficulty and one's subjective feelings towards Ieyasu. After all, it's been several days since I separated from Tatsumi, but it feels like I just parted ways with Ieyasu.
Chen Luo was curious about how Iyeas managed to get separated from Sayo even while searching for a hotel.
Chen Luo glanced down at the time on his talent panel.
The time displayed is around nine o'clock.
Chen Luo also glanced at the sky outside the bar door that Sha You hadn't closed yet, and roughly determined the time of the world she was in.
“In that case, I’ll go with you to find your two companions now. But we can probably only find one companion today, the one you just got separated from,” Chen Luo said to Sha You, stroking his chin.
"Are you sure you can find it? But aren't you open for business right now? Won't leaving disrupt your business?" Shayou was quite polite, even considering Chen Luo's feelings when he offered to help her.
"It doesn't matter. Most of the people at this bar are regulars. The bartender can handle it all by herself. Serving food and drinks is enough to manage the bar. It's more important to find your companion. Otherwise, your directionally challenged friend might end up sleeping somewhere." Chen Luo waved his hand and said.
It mainly involves entrusting tasks.
Generally speaking, if the task is completed by the other party alone, and Chen Luo does not contribute any help, it is very likely that Chen Luo will not be able to obtain a single raw stone.
Although this has not happened yet, Chen Luo does not want any raw stones to slip away.
If Sayo were to search carefully enough to find someone as lost as Ieyasu, she might be able to find her friend. Therefore, this is clearly not the kind of task that can be delayed for several days.
Although if Chen Luo isn't at the bar, he'll need to spend 50 Primogems per hour to maintain the quality of the food and drinks, this task gives 100 Primogems.
If you round it up, Chen Luo still makes a profit of 50 raw stones.
So when will someone finally appear to maintain the quality of food and drinks for me?
When will the master chef come to my bar? Then I can have the master chef be the quality maintainer of the dishes.
As for bartending, Diona might be able to.
Chen Luo really needs to think about where to find a professional who can both cook and bartend.
"As expected of the capital, there are so many kind people here. Honestly, the uncle I met on the way told me to be careful in the capital, saying that the people there are wolves in sheep's clothing. I know he meant well, but that's a bit of an exaggeration. I've only been in the capital for a short time and I've already met this kind person, the shop manager," Shayou said happily.
“Of course I can help you find your two companions, and it’ll be free. But seeing your current mindset, I think it’s necessary to correct you a little. First of all, there are two mistakes in what you said. First, I’m not from the capital. Second, there are indeed many wolves in sheep’s clothing in the capital.” Chen Luo said to Sha You.
When Chen Luo accepts a low-level three-star mission, he generally doesn't ask for any extra rewards.
But Chen Luo felt that Sha You really didn't have a clear understanding of the wickedness of human nature.
In that case, even if they don't suffer a big loss this time with my help, they will suffer a big loss in the future.
Beings who appear human but are monsters at heart are a common sight in the Imperial Capital of Akame ga Kill!
The capital city was indeed prosperous in the past, but just as people gradually decay, nations will one day perish. Even the capital city, which enjoyed a thousand years of glory, is now nothing more than a corrupt hell. Demons and monsters in human skin roam freely and arrogantly.
The capital city now only maintains its superficial prosperity through military force.
However, these things are still too complicated for Sayo in front of her. Understanding human nature still requires a step-by-step approach.
"Huh? Boss, aren't you from the capital?" Shayou asked in surprise.
"But this is clearly the capital city."
"Haven't you noticed yet? The people in this bar are all dressed in their own unique styles; it doesn't seem like they're from the same place at all. And although I don't know where you opened the bar from, it's definitely not ordinary, right?" Chen Luo looked past Sha You and out into the alleyway, where he could only see light shining through.
"Uh, that seems to be true. I think I saw this bar in an alley." After hearing Chen Luo's words, Sha You took a step back, walked out of the bar, and looked around.
Upon closer reflection, this doesn't seem to be a suitable place to open a shop.
"So where is this?" Sayo asked uncertainly.
"This is a bar that connects countless worlds. Guests from any world can drink for free, eat delicious food, and communicate on an equal footing without worrying about being threatened. And I am the manager responsible for fulfilling the wishes of the guests who come here."
"Of course, I am not entirely selfless either. I also need compensation, and that compensation is the feeling of satisfaction you get after your wish is fulfilled," Chen Luo said.
"W-Is that so? That's amazing!" Sayo exclaimed, her mouth agape.
"You believe me?"
“I believe you. But the reward you asked for… I don’t understand it, but it sounds really impressive,” Sayo said earnestly.
"I don't know why, but the moment I saw you, boss, I felt a special connection with you. You didn't seem like the type to lie; you seemed like a good person," Shayou said.
"..." Upon hearing Sayo's words, Chen Luo suddenly remembered an achievement reward from Kiritsugu Emiya - Messenger of Justice.
This achievement can increase others' trust in you. Chen Luo used to think that achievements that didn't increase initial favorability were all trash, but now it seems that this generalization is not accurate.
Increasing the level of trust one receives seems like a pretty good reward.
Although Chen Luo could do something similar using the abilities of the Herald of Knowledge, the effect of this achievement would be more pronounced in a bar, a place where people cannot harm each other.
"But speaking of which, I did think the guests in the bar were dressed rather strangely and unusually, but I thought it was just a unique style of people from the capital," Sayo said shyly.
After all, they just came to the capital from the countryside, so it's normal for them to have some misunderstandings.
"Alright, let's talk about these unnecessary things as we walk. In short, the capital isn't a very good place, so we need to be wary of everyone," Chen Luo said.
"Xiao Shi, do you want to come play with me?" Chen Luo turned his head and asked.
"Huh?" The Herrscher of Knowledge, who was playing chess with Fu Hua, turned around and looked at Chen Luo with a somewhat blank expression after being called out by him.
"Do you want to go sightseeing in the capital together?" Chen Luo asked.
"Ah, no! Leave me alone. I'm playing chess right now. If I lose, it'll all be your fault!" Herrscher of Knowledge said, scratching her head.
It's clear that the Herrscher of Knowledge was at a disadvantage when playing chess with Fu Hua.
"I told you not to play here. If you had listened to me earlier, we wouldn't have lost so badly." Cang Xuan pointed at the chessboard.
“I haven’t lost yet, have I? The outcome is still uncertain, and we could both be dark horses!” the Herald of Knowledge retorted defiantly.
"So, Sirin and Mercury Lamp, are you two going?" Chen Luo asked.
"Yes." Mercury Lamp immediately unfurled its wings and quickly flew from its seat to Chen Luo's shoulder.
Upon seeing this, Sirin stopped moving forward as soon as she took flight.
"No need, I'll help Sister Raven with the dishes at the bar, but Master, you have to spend more time with me tonight," Sirin said after thinking for a moment.
Xilin also knew that every newly created doll would want to monopolize its owner for a day or two, just like she had done back then.
Seeing how eager Suigintou was to be with Chen Luo, Xilin could roughly guess Suigintou's current state of mind.
Hearing Sirin's words, Raven, who was bored behind the bar counter, almost melted.
Celine is so well-behaved.
Woo woo woo.
"No problem." Chen Luo nodded.
"Seriously, Sirin, you're going to get into this cutthroat competition?" Xiao You sighed helplessly from the side.
"If you're the one carrying the dishes, don't I have to carry them too?"
"Alright, Xiao You, just be content to be a useless person, lazy and waiting to die. It's fine, I quite like this kind of puppet design," Chen Luo said sincerely.
"...A subtle feeling, a little strange." The Holy Sword Durandal fell into thought.
"Teacher, I want to go too." Just then, a voice rang out. Flandre, who was playing computer games with her sister, ran towards Chen Luo and raised her hand.
"Hmm? You want to go to Hunan too? That's not impossible..." Chen Luo said, glancing at the sky outside.
Fran, as a vampire, is only suited to appear at night, and it just so happens to be nighttime outside right now.
"Perfect, at the same time I can also test my recent training progress. A win-win situation."
With Fran coming to the bar every night recently, and her powers being sealed, Fran is now able to control her bloodlust better than before.
At the same time, Fran would often cooperate with Chen Luo to damage Chen Luo's body, and Chen Luo would use the "Breaking the Cocoon to Become a Butterfly" technique to strengthen Chen Luo's body. On the one hand, it could strengthen Chen Luo's body, and on the other hand, it could help Fran release stress. The effect was exceptionally good.
Now that Fran has completed her studies, it's time to go out and test her results.
In the capital city, if you kill 10 people, at least three of them will be innocent. If the other party is a nobleman, then there is a 99% chance that they are not innocent.
Thinking about it carefully, Fran seems quite suitable to join the Night Raid, since the Night Raid is also an activity at night.
"But your outfit seems out of place in the capital. It's too glamorous," Chen Luo said, looking at Flandre's exquisite dress.
Chen Luo originally wanted to portray a young man from the countryside seeking opportunities in the capital. While Mercury Lamp could be shielded by the power of the Herrscher of Knowledge, Flandre seemed unsuitable.
Because Fran probably also wants to act and play alone.
“I don’t think you’re qualified to say that, teacher,” Fran said, pointing to Chen Luo’s clothes.
“You’re right, but I can use the power of the Herrscher of Knowledge, but you can’t.” Chen Luo squatted down and ruffled Fran’s hair as he spoke.
"Manager, is this your student? Is she also going to the capital?" Shayou asked, looking at the doll on Chen Luo's shoulder and the cute girl next to him.
"To us, the capital you mentioned is a strange place in another world, so it's normal for a child to be curious and want to go. Oh, by the way, once you get to the capital, don't mention this bar. If I want to tell certain people, I will naturally tell them the truth. Don't even tell your companion; I'll find a chance to tell him later. Just think of us as other teenagers from the countryside," Chen Luo said to Sha You after thinking for a moment.
“Okay.” Although Shayou didn’t know why Chen Luo wanted to give her such an identity, she didn’t refuse.
“Teacher, you must have forgotten that as a vampire, I also have a certain degree of ability to hint at things to others,” Flandre said, arms crossed.
Does my teacher really think I'm a child? But it's not a bad feeling either.
"Alright, you two, stop wasting your time. You might as well try out my new invention." Just as everything was about to be settled, Liu Wenxuan stood up and said.
"A new invention?"
“That’s right, I call it the Emperor’s New Clothes - Adaptive Version. It’s an item that the Guide commissioned me to create. You two can test its stability. Anyway, if anything happens in that world, Brother Luo, you can handle it.” Liu Wenxuan said as he took out two gauze robes from his backpack.
"Is it possible that your 'Emperor's New Clothes' is no different from not wearing them at all?" Chen Luo felt that the name sounded a bit unreliable.
