"This is a poison that can paralyze her whole body. For the rest, your tavern has a basement with very complete equipment. You don't have to worry about her escaping."
The scarred man looked at Li Ke who was driving a carriage and smiled at him. In the carriage, there was a blindfolded elf sitting there quietly, bound by iron chains, and
Griet was stuffed into a sack.
What he handed to Li Ke was a large bottle of poison and a key to Griet's chain.
"Not only that, there are many rooms in the basement of the tavern, which are very suitable for private gathering places. You can put your elf slave there and enjoy it as you like... Don't worry, she won't resist you.
.It doesn’t matter even if you use some over-the-top toys, after all you have the Holy Light.”
Li Ke nodded silently, then got on the carriage and slowly headed towards the town.
He needs to think now, needs to think carefully, and think about how to torture Griet.
and wait for the results.
But unexpectedly, he didn't resent Griet's betrayal. Maybe it was because he realized his mistake, but Li Ke felt that it was because Griet and he didn't actually have much affection.
Even if Jennifer hid things from him, he didn't feel too much.
"It seems that it's because I didn't give them much expectations from the beginning?"
Li Ke felt that he should be sad for the betrayal of the person next to him, but he found that he didn't care about these two women very much. If it hadn't been a trap just now, he would have stabbed the dagger from Griet's charming chest.
Go in, through the thick, charming fat, and then pierce into the living heart.
But in the end, countless thoughts gathered together and formed a sigh.
"It's so careless."
Li Ke shook his head. He was indeed too careless. He was too impatient to gain power, status, identity and wealth, and ignored other places.
So Jennifer and Griet are not wrong.
It's you who's wrong.
I made the mistake of giving them a chance, and I made the mistake of overestimating their vision.
This is something worth regretting, rather than resenting their concealment and betrayal.
But what can I do?
Having been through that kind of thing...
"After all, it's still a lack of ability."
Li Ke sighed, thinking about his shortcomings, and quickly moved towards the tavern.
After he cleared his mind, all he had left in his heart was the desire to improve his abilities.
But in the manor.
"I don't understand, father, why you value that guy so much, and even give him such valuable goods, which can be sold for thousands of gold coins, and don't you think it's too sudden? You said he is too impatient.
Yes, and your behavior like this is not impatient?"
Sean looked at his father dissatisfied. He didn't have any elf slaves himself, but Li Ke actually had one!
"That's why I have to work hard to tame him. Son, you are far behind him. In terms of ability, mentality, and choices, you are far behind him."
The lord shook his head.
"You are just much better than him in terms of status. You have to understand this clearly."
Sean frowned, feeling very dissatisfied with his father's scolding.
He has undergone various trainings since he was four years old. He has been learning various martial arts, poetry, and literature since he was six years old. He is constantly receiving training in controlling other people, how to get along with nobles, as well as the specialties, rules, and secrets of various places.
industries, as well as interpersonal relationships, and personnel changes between various families.
And his father kept telling him that he was his pride and that no one in the world was better than him.
However, now he is told that a lowly mud-legged guy, a guy who only relied on his father's appreciation, is better than him?
He doesn't even know the words!
"That's why I won't let you take over the trade now."
After looking at his son, the lord sighed.
"You are too proud, my son. It is not your fault, it is mine."
His son is good at everything, but he is too proud, even more proud than that young man named Li Ke.
But this is also correct and normal. If you are not proud, problems will arise, but in this era, it is not very good.
When he was raising his son, he didn't think Prince Alsace could survive safely, so when he was raising his son, he was training him to be the husband-in-law of the princess.
Because Tenaris will definitely not choose a big noble to marry his daughter, but will only choose some nobles with smaller territories but relatively wealth.
But unfortunately, Prince Alsace survived.
I have to say that the guards and teachers that His Majesty the King found are very good. Uther is simply an iron wall, and the King of Dwarves is really too humble.
He had lost five sons before he had one like this, and the king was able to survive with only one son.
The other kings are simply idiots and useless.
"If it were that young man, he would undoubtedly fall into the arms of King Tenaris now instead of continuing to deepen his relationship with Baron Rivendell... Because by that time, even Baron Rivendell will
He will also become a dog of Alsace in a humble and pious way."
He shook his glass.
"But what about business? Once Alsace comes to power, our business will not be easy."
"Then don't do it, Sean. This young man has given us a new way of making money, my son. That's why I gave him the elf originally prepared for you."
"That's for me?! That's my thing? You actually gave my thing to someone else?!"
Sean stood up angrily and looked at his father.
The lord looked at his son with some confusion. Although his son was lustful and lustful, he should not dare to speak to him like this.
Then his face darkened, his temper suddenly rose, and he roared angrily.
"Shut up! Sean! Do you still think of me as your father?"
After he finished speaking, he found that his temper was a little weird. He thought he had drunk too much wine, but what he didn't know was that he had just eaten the tofu.
It has added ingredients.
Sean became even more angry. He could see that his father trusted the man named Li Ke even more.
So, a sentence came out without thinking.
"Do you want that guy to take over the elf business?"
The lord frowned. He did have this idea. This kind of business requires white gloves, so he gave Li Ke a pure-blood elf slave to lure Li Ke into trouble.
But now, he just wants to teach his son a lesson, after all, he is so reckless now.
"Yes, because you are too reckless! After he is tamed, he will become the pillar of the family!"
reckless!
Sean's eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes. He looked at his father now as if he were looking at a monster.
"You want that illegitimate daughter to take over! Right!"
He angrily smashed the wine bottle in his hand. The fury in his heart could no longer be tolerated. He rushed towards his father and stabbed his father's neck with the sharp glass.
The lord evaded suddenly, but his face was still scratched. He looked at his son in shock and anger, and yelled out.
"Sean! You're crazy!"
A green light flashed in Sean's eyes, but no one noticed it.
"You are the one who is crazy! Old man!"
The two men got into a fight, and eventually.
Sean fell to the ground with a look of disbelief.
"Father……"
And the orb in his hand was still shining with the light of holy light.
