There is a lord who just wants to draw cards, what's wrong with that?

Domi just said it casually, but Mei opened her eyes wide and looked at him in disbelief:

"How do you know?!"

"It's true..."

These two people are amazing. They are different people but have the same experience, and it happened to him.

At this point, Mei no longer planned to hide it from Domi, so the two found a tree house, and Mei told Domi everything that had happened to herself and her family.

"Emm...So, the reason you become an adventurer is to make money, right?"

Mei bit her lip and nodded.

In fact, this is not something that cannot be said, but Mei just doesn't want to show her own embarrassment in front of Domi.

But Domi didn't mind and didn't dislike her.

As for Mei, Domi actually defines her as a future talent like Morey.

The Light Shield Family was a prominent family from long ago. After a wave of demons, they began to decline and eventually died out, but that doesn't mean they are weak.

Even if the sky falls, there is still a tall man to hold it up. The tall man is the light shield, so he died in front of everyone.

Just as he is sure of the strength of the Light Shield Family, Domi is also very sure of Mei's future potential.

In this case...why not take Mei under your wing? If she grows up, she will undoubtedly be a huge help!

"It's all about making money anyway," Domi suggested, "Why don't I show you a way out? You don't have to take risks, and you can get more salary..."

Mei was tricked by Domi into coming to the door of the Nightwish Tavern, in the center of the city.

Mei had been in the main city of Blofield for some time and had heard about the prosperity and luxury of the city center. The wages paid to the coachmen were all counted in silver wolves, and if they wanted to enjoy a normal meal, they had to pay with gold royals.

But Domi knows an owner who can open such a big pub here? !

"Yes, I'm very familiar with the owner behind the scenes here, and I can definitely arrange for you to get in, but you have to work hard, otherwise others will say that you got in through the back door and look down on you."

"Mr. Death, you are really amazing..."

Mei is still unable to recover from Mr. Death's all-powerful interpersonal relationships. She feels that Mr. Death is definitely not just an adventurer. He could be a prince of a small country or something.

"Don't be stunned, come on, I'll take you in."

As he said that, Domi took Mei's wrist and led the somewhat dazed girl inside, leaving her to walk by herself. She might even trip over the threshold when entering a door.

As soon as you enter, the light scent of perfume in the air is like the fragrance from nature, which is not only refreshing, but also, combined with the surrounding decorations, gives people the fantasy of lying on the grass slope and looking up at the stars.

"'Nightwish', what a beautiful name..."

“If you worked here, I think it would become more beautiful.”

Mei's little face turned red again in an instant.

The two came to the front desk.

The young and handsome bartender didn't recognize the masked Domi, so he asked politely, "Welcome, what would you like to order?"

"We don't serve strong liquor during the day, but we do have smaller drinks with lower strengths, as well as a variety of dishes prepared by our chef. Do you need a menu?"

"No, I'm not here for dinner. Take me to see Morey and tell him that an acquaintance is visiting."

The bartender looked at Duomi in doubt. How could this masked man know their boss who just airdropped in? !

"Okay, please wait a moment, I'll go and notify you."

Not long after, the bartender came down from upstairs in a hurry and respectfully welcomed Domi and Mei upstairs:

"Miss, you can take the shield off your back and place it here. I can keep it for you."

Mei looked at Domi with a pleading look.

"Give it to him. It's troublesome to carry it with you all the time."

When Domi also handed over the bow, Mei felt relieved to hand over his personal shield.

All her equipment was standard common goods and worthless. The only thing was this large grey round shield that was two-thirds as tall as her. It was a shield passed down from her ancestors. It could be said to be the afterglow of the Light Shield Family. She really had to be more careful with it.

After taking off the equipment, I felt so light that I could walk with the wind.

So the two of them came to Morey's private room.

This place originally belonged to the pub manager, but now Morey has transformed it into a multi-functional space that integrates a gym, study, office, bathroom and training room.

As for the bedroom, due to lack of space, he omitted it and just slept on the floor.

Seeing Morey's floor mat and the renovated room, Domi felt that he was right about him. Morey was constantly improving himself in his own way, like a sponge.

"Hi, why are you here?"

Morey greeted while wiping the sweat from his forehead.

Mei was also quietly observing this boy who didn't look much older than her. He now had neat short black hair and was handsome. His originally thin physique was gradually gaining weight, showing the youth and vitality he should have.

Just like a brother next door.

Domi also nodded secretly. It seemed that Morey had heard something from the bartender's description and knew that he was hiding his identity.

Very good, high EQ.

"Hey Morey, we haven't seen each other for a while, let's sit down and talk."

The three of them sat face to face in the office, and Domi introduced to Morey:

"This child's name is Mei, a single word. Arrange a job for her so that she can earn some money for her mother's medical treatment. When she has earned enough money, you can ask her if she wants to stay. How do you think?"

"Her mother is also seriously ill?"

"Yes, it's a magical disease. If you have 300 gold dragons, you can still be saved."

"How about this!" Morey stood up and wrote a check for 300 gold royals and handed it to Mei: "Take this check and go to Blofield Bank to withdraw 300 gold royals. Treat your mother first, and then come back to work."

Mei didn't dare to answer it. She asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will take the money and leave here?"

"If it were someone else, I wouldn't be so generous, but you were introduced by my best friend. It's just a small favor, so just accept it. To use a phrase in economics, it's advance consumption, which is equivalent to your salary for several months in the future."

"But don't be afraid. Our hotel provides food and accommodation. You won't starve to death even if you don't have any money in your pocket."

Chapter 66 Catherine's Resentment

Chapter 66-65- Catherine's Resentment

It seems that Morey arranged a secretary position for Mei, who was specifically responsible for helping him organize the pub's profit and loss situation and market reports. Mei also took care of the chores that he usually had no time to do due to exercise and study.

I have to say that Morey is good at picking.

The position of secretary requires a lot of detailed work, which can best enhance a person's abilities while also reducing one's own burden and saving time.

As a person who believes in efficiency above all else, Domi is quite supportive of this approach.

Now that he had arranged everything for Mei, it was time for him to go back to the villa and rest.

After a most difficult life-and-death battle, and traveling day and night, if it weren't for the breathing method that continued to support him, he would probably collapse on the road in the next second...

Now he just wanted to lie down on the soft big bed and sleep for two days.

I returned to the villa around 10 o'clock in the morning. I didn't have time to eat. I took a shower, changed into pajamas, lay down, and then closed my eyes. I passed away peacefully...

He slept very soundly and didn't wake up until noon the next day. He was awakened by hunger.

The maid thoughtfully brought the meal to his bed, which was very convenient.

He stuffed food into his mouth like a glutton and asked:

"By the way, Louise, I remember you told me something yesterday. I was too tired at the time. Could you please repeat it?"

Louise placed her hands on her belly, stood straight, and said honestly and respectfully:

"Okay, the master wrote to you the day before yesterday, asking you to return to the castle yesterday. I reminded you, but you didn't seem to be in a good condition yesterday..."

Domi is well-known in the maid circle for her approachability and her love of appreciating girls (from young girls to young women).

It is precisely because of this character and hobby that none of the maids feel that Domi will insult or punish them. Unless they make extremely outrageous mistakes, Domi will just be close to them and gently correct their mistakes. Therefore, there is no need to lie in order to avoid being scolded.

If Duomi put the blame on her without saying anything and without reason, then she would have to come up with another excuse, and doing so would inevitably prevent the message from being conveyed completely and accurately.

This is the charm of a person, even though it is not very serious.

"So I overslept?"

"If I remember the date correctly, you did miss it."

However, Domi still ate and drank, and even took a nap. In his words, he was late anyway, so he might as well finish his meal and go back after dinner ~ and he could also avoid being disciplined by Carlos.

He knew what Carlos was going to say to him just by thinking with his toes, something about time management, and that the most basic integrity between people is to abide by agreements, etc.

My ears are callused from listening to it so much.

"That's it, Louise. Help me prepare the carriage and gifts first, and call me when it's time for dinner~"

"As ordered."

……

It was six o'clock in the evening. Domi had finished his dinner in the villa, changed into his daily clothes, took a suitcase containing Bei Luoshimen's black cloak, and got on the carriage to go home.

The outskirts of the city were not far from his castle. Given the speed of the carriage and the empty road, it only took an hour and a half to get there.

It's 7:30 in the evening and there are still many rooms in the castle with lights on, so it won't be too much of a bother if I come back now.

Entering the hall, everything was the same as before except that there were fewer maids saying sweetly, "Welcome home, young master~~".

But it's not a good feeling. Well, there is always gain after loss.

Just when he was about to go back to his room and spend the day in peace, a figure walked in from the side room. Domi looked closely and found that it was Catherine!

She should be making a beauty treatment right now! Why is she still standing here in her uniform?

Did those guys even record what I did in the villa and report it to Carlos?

Seeing Domi's guilty look, Catherine was immediately furious. She looked down at him coldly and said:

"Domi, welcome home, come with me to see the master."

Haha, what a cold welcome home.

The sound of high heels stepping on the floor is particularly crisp.

Domi followed Catherine and asked cautiously:

"Catherine, are you waiting for me?"

"Well, the master assigned me to wait here."

"Wait a long time?"

"..."

She was silent for a long while before she said quietly, "Yes, from yesterday morning until now, except for sleeping and working, I have to wait for you there whenever I have time."

That tone was like a little girl with a bit of temper complaining in front of her boyfriend. Domi felt like she was being scratched by a cat. It was so itchy. So cute. I wanted to...

"I'm really sorry, but you know, Ka... Father is really scary when he gets angry. I'm not afraid of that, but I'm just worried that his blood pressure will go up and he might get sick."

But these reasons are so pale.

"Okay, Catherine, I'm sorry. I'll make it up to you sometime."

"…Hey, forget it. I'm not really blaming you."

The two fell into silence again, and as they walked, they arrived at their destination unknowingly.

"Duomi, you have to face what you have to face. Avoiding the problem won't solve it. Sigh... I'm leaving first. Don't come to me if you have any problems."

It was the first time he saw Catherine sigh so many times in succession. It seemed that she was really exhausted from being the "waiting stone for her husband" at the door.

"When I draw something good from the card, I'll compensate her." Domi thought so, then forced himself to calm down and knocked on Carlos' office door.

"Come in."

crunch~~

"Father, I'm back."

Carlos was reviewing documents while asking without even looking up: "You still remember to come back?"

"Uh... didn't you ask me to come back~"
