The immortal black snake just wants to live simply

Page 118

"This is not necessarily true. Maybe it is just transforming in its own form... Even in this process, countless people will become nutrients for capital."

"...What are your orders?"

"Are you going to bow your head and admit defeat?"

"…After all, you acquired the company I work for through legal means, so you are my nominal boss."

"Is that so...then if I want you to kill someone, will you do it?"

"I only follow the tasks in the contract, boss."

"It's strange. Even though your previous boss was squeezing your rest time, you agreed to it. You even followed some unscrupulous measures... Or is it that you are still holding on to something in your heart?"

"..."

"Maena, you are very interesting, you are really interesting... Okay, let's go back. The main reason I came here today is to see the employees working under me and build relationships."

"……Yes."

'Damn!What are those people from the Jianzhenghui doing!Let the Duke of Ursus act like Arthur in the territory of Casimir...what do they want to do? '

'...No, I have to do something. '

……

"Xenomi, do you want to go shopping on the street with me?"

Arthur was looking through the company's information boredly, and even the upward curve of the corners of his mouth narrowed a little.

Black snakes never like to work.

He came here this time just to see what kind of person this generation Lin Guang was.

'Maena is so different from his father and niece...'

But Arthur did not underestimate Maena.

The places where [Snake Scale] operates are not limited to Ursus.

He knew that Ma Enna had easily executed dozens of defecting war knights...

Although the Black Snake has always laughed at Casimir, he has never looked down upon Casimir's knights.

If Casimir's national defense strength is really as vulnerable as the black snake's mouth, then why would Ursus, who is keen on war, send envoys to persuade him to surrender?

Wouldn't it be better to just run over?

……

"Oh? Is it really possible... But sir, don't you need to make some disguise?"

On the street led by the Grand Knight, Xenomi, who was wearing casual clothes, looked at Arthur who was walking side by side with her with some concern.

Not only did Arthur not make any disguise, he even still wore eye-catching knight armor.

But the smile on his face is still so bright, still so warm...

At least in Xenomi's eyes, this is indeed the case.

"Dear sir, may I interrupt you for a moment?"

A young man with a microphone in his hand who looked like a reporter saw this 'unfamiliar face'.

'Oh, it seems that today's work has been settled. '

"of course can."

Arthur agreed readily.

'After so many years, has the former Laughing Knight disappeared from the public's mind? '

After all, knight competition itself is a product created by the current business federation, used to satisfy these entertainment-oriented people's 'fast food'.

Most of those who are fascinated by knight competitions will not focus on just one knight.

Most fans are unstoppable when they are enthusiastic...but also, when they calm down, they will completely forget about their former idols.

After all, the 'Knight' packaged by the Business Federation is just a consumer product.

Consumer products designed to satisfy popular fantasies.

But Arthur was still a little disappointed.

Chilling!

Who doesn’t allow immortals to have vanity!

……

"Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Knight. I wonder who this is..."

This reporter, who was obviously a newcomer, noticed the pink-haired Zalac woman standing next to Arthur with a hint of blush on her face.

"This is my attendant... Haha, you know, knights always have one or two attendants around them to help with chores, right?"

Arthur made a small joke.

This body has a great sense of humor and loves to laugh.

But at the same time, I also enjoy the feeling of being in the spotlight.

……

"Then I wonder if you will participate in this knight championship?"

"of course."

"yes……"

The reporter thought he was hiding something and wrote a line in the notebook he carried with him.

"A knight with a beautiful female companion, in order to prove his love to his partner, participates in..."

As a rookie reporter with keen observation, he could certainly tell that the man and woman in front of him were definitely not a so-called couple.

How could he come over so abruptly?

He at least observed for a while and confirmed that Mr. Knight was probably easier to talk to before coming for the interview.

The man dressed as a knight treated the woman with a condescending attitude, and the woman was also very respectful.

The two were not as close as a young couple, but maintained a sense of distance.

But what confused the reporter was that he clearly noticed the admiration in the woman's eyes...

What, why didn't he see it?

Even if you are a new reporter for a wine newspaper, you cannot lack the most basic professional qualities.

'I see, it's unrequited love... Then let me help you. '

Reporters from Red Wine News love writing this kind of entertainment gossip.

As for the trouble they will suffer from this?

Sorry, what does it have to do with them?

……

"Thank you for accepting this interview...I almost forgot, what is your name?"

"Arthur Pendragon."

"Uh...sounds familiar."

"Haha, as a reporter, you have interviewed so many people, so it's not surprising that one or two of them have the same name."

"No, no... I'm still just a newcomer."

The young reporter touched his head, but there was obviously a trace of contentment on his face.

He didn't notice that a black snake had crawled onto his neck, staring quietly at the notebook he held under his arm.

……

"Hey...why does that person look so familiar?"

"(Casimir swears) It's the Laughing Knight! Hasn't he already retired?"

"Hey, why are you stopping me! I want an autograph."

"Are you crazy? Have you forgotten the true identity of the other party? He is the Duke of Ursus! He is one of the culprits who once trampled on our Casimir!"

"...But how dare he walk out onto the street so openly? What do those people from the Jianzhenghui do for food? It's a waste of our taxpayers' money!"

"Who knows, maybe this has something to do with the National Council's recent desire to establish diplomatic relations with Ursus... In the final analysis, there is no eternal hatred between countries? There are only eternal interests!"

4000 words of Dr. Mobius who is good at seeking death!

"Mobius, Rhine Life is holding a banquet tonight... Do you want to come?"

"Oh~ Ceria, am I finally regarded as one of your own?...I am so touched. Sure enough, my sincere efforts have paid off."

"Mobius, can you be more normal...or can you be more reserved in showing your emotions?"

"No, I can't stop crying at all. This feeling is like the child I have been taking good care of finally knows how to repay my parents... Of course, I don't mean to take advantage of you~"

"...Actually, you don't have to go."

"Oh~ This is the first invitation from my loyal and powerful bodyguard~ How could I not give you face~"

"...This is a banquet of Rhine life, not a personal invitation."

"It's so cute to be so arrogant... But I don't have any clothes suitable for the party. Why don't you go shopping with me after get off work later?"

"No need, this banquet is only attended by a few directors, the commander-in-chief, and you as the advisor...it is not a formal banquet."

"This is not okay~ How can a banquet that I, Mobius, condescend to attend, be an informal banquet... Ceria, don't leave."

……

In the end, Ceria accompanied Mobius to buy clothes.

Mainly because she really didn't want to watch Mobius, who was wearing a white coat and half a head taller than her, rolling around on the ground like a child, not caring about his image.

Mobius may not care about image, but Rhine Life does.

At least those employees must not be allowed to see this scene.

……

Inside a mall in Colombia.

Ceria and Mobius, dressed in casual clothes, are choosing clothes.

"Ceria, do you think I look good in this dress~"

Mobius changed into warm-colored clothes.

"can."

"Oh, that's it~"

Ceria, who was wearing a brown leather jacket next to her, breathed a sigh of relief.

'Now, this troublesome guy can be taken away. '

But soon, she was a little numb when she saw Mobius enter the fitting room again, and then put on a pure black suit with a tie.
