Abi came over with a plate, but because he was so excited, the two cups on the plate kept shaking.
"Master, please have tea."
It tried its best to keep its hands from shaking and placed the cup in front of the devil. Mel looked nervous and pinched the corners of his clothes with both hands.
"Have you made the finished product yet?"
The Demon King picked up a ruby pendant on the workbench and took a look at it. It was only a semi-finished product.
"Already, one has been made."
Mel said with some stuttering.
"Just one?"
The Demon King frowned slightly, and Mel immediately looked embarrassed and lowered his head, not daring to say anything.
However, at this moment, Abi took out a small wooden box and handed it to the devil with a slight bow.
This was beyond the devil's expectation. He thought there would be at least three or four finished products this month.
But now there is only one.
Little did he know that the other party listened to what he said at that time and wanted to make the most perfect jewelry in the world.
When the devil opened the box, a bright light suddenly shone. It was a pair of sapphire earrings. The outer ring was decorated with small crystals and some pink color. If you want to describe it, it is like a bud.
The girl waiting to be released lies quietly among the lotus flowers.
This thing is worth a lot of money!
Even the Demon King noticed it, and he slowly showed a happy smile.
"Not bad! Not bad! Very good! Hahaha!"
The devil laughed, and Mel was surprised and happy. She looked at Abi happily, and Abi looked at her equally excitedly.
However, just when the two were happy, the devil's voice came: "Hurry up and get ready, get ready to go tomorrow."
Hearing this, Mel was stunned.
"Departure? Excuse me, where are you going?"
The devil put the pair of earrings in the box, then stood up with it, looked at Mel and said, "Business."
…
There is a strange carriage in the sky moving forward in the air. The winged Pegasus drags a flying carriage and flies quickly over the head of the forest. The setting sun is like a bored person leaning on the mountainside watching it.
.
Her round glasses reflected the light outside the window. Rey Phoenix was sitting in the carriage, looking at the castle in the distance without saying a word.
That is the infamous Stone Ancient City, a place of lawlessness for merchants. Even if the Adventurers Guild intervenes, they have no right to interfere. Rael dislikes this place very much.
However, this was personally assigned by the guild president An Mihu, so there was no other way.
"Oh~ why do I always get such errands?"
Leer sighed and said.
"That proves that Miss, you are highly valued by the president, so I will leave important matters to you."
The person who finished speaking was a gray-haired old man sitting in front of Rael. He was wearing a formal suit and looked like a gentleman. He was the butler and bodyguard of the Phoenix family, named Greno. He did not belong to the Adventurer's Guild.
However, he is powerful and has made many achievements together with Rael, so the Adventurer's Guild granted him the title of Dark Adventurer, exempting him from the obligations of an adventurer.
The speeding carriage landed on the ground with two rumbles and arrived in front of the gate of Stone Ancient City. There were more guards here than in half the city. After all, there were an unusually large number of merchants coming and going, and there were often long queues.
Unfortunately, today's queue was extremely long, like a long centipede, and the speeding carriage came behind. Unfortunately, in Stone Ancient City, Rael could not get priority by being the number one member of the Adventurer's Guild.
The Eastern Liska Empire is a small country that strongly rejects the Adventurer's Guild. The Adventurer's Guild does not have much influence here, and the Count Arcas here is a brutal ruler, and he will not let the Adventurer's Guild.
tamper with his territory.
Therefore, this mission will definitely be hindered in every possible way, and Rael is mentally prepared. But that’s okay. If it is discovered that Arcas is related to the shapeshifter, then she can cross the empire and forcibly execute the plans of the Adventurer’s Guild.
An agreement signed by the four empires - the Holy Killing Act.
If there is actual evidence that a certain country has betrayed humanity and colluded with the demons, the Adventurer's Guild has the right to arrest or destroy it. If Arcas dies, it will not be harmful to the Adventurer's Guild.
Expand its influence and then control the ancient city of Stone.
You must know that almost 70% of the contraband investigated by adventurers has passed through Stone Ancient City, and there are countless felons hiding here.
"Miss, let's have a cup of tea. We may have to wait for a long time."
Just as Rael was thinking, the butler Greno, who had just walked out to see the situation, returned to the carriage.
"How long will it take?"
Rael asked.
"It will probably take more than two hours. The caravan ahead is too long."
Greno replied.
Hearing this, Leer pushed up her glasses and said, "No, it's almost dark now. We must enter the city as soon as possible and find a place to stay. We will start investigating tomorrow."
After saying that, she picked up her skirt and got out of the carriage.
The road here was very dirty, full of wheel marks, and the snow was stained with the color of mud. Rael walked to the roadside, stretched her neck, and looked at the city gate from behind the long motorcade.
It was really a winding caravan, and she found that these loaded carriages were all the same, probably the same caravan.
Rael felt that she couldn't wait any longer, so she came to the front car and asked the driver: "Hello, excuse me, I want to ask something. Are you and the car in front of you both from the same caravan?"
She found that the coachman was a man who had covered himself so tightly that he could hardly be seen.
"Um."
This was the only response the other party had.
"Then I want to talk to your team leader. Can you tell me which car he is in?"
Hearing this, the coachman coughed, then stretched out his hand and pointed outward.
Rael saw that there seemed to be some gray hair in his sleeves.
Maybe she was wearing fur gloves, but she didn't take it to heart and walked towards where the coachman pointed.
Greno also got out of the car and followed Rael. The two of them walked forward along the road for a while and arrived at the city gate.
The guards were checking the cars, and Rael noticed that these cars were filled with bags of wheat.
There is so much wheat? Where did this businessman get it?
Rael kept an eye on it. The Adventurer's Guild, the Dragon Boat Empire, and the Luas Empire jointly called for a large amount of food from all over the world to supply the front line.
It seemed that this ancient Stone City was much worse than she imagined.
"I'm looking for your person in charge."
Leer said to the driver who was being inspected.
The coachman didn't even look at her, but pointed in the direction. Near the city gate, a relatively luxurious carriage was parked aside.
It blocked a good place, but the guards did not drive them away.
There is no doubt that this businessman must have some connections here.
Leer walked directly to the front of the car and knocked on the door.
"Go and open the door quickly."
"Why me."
"How about~ I'll drive it."
"No! She is closest to the door, she must open it."
There was a conversation inside that made people don't know how to react. Suddenly, the carriage door opened with a loud click, and a woman with snow-white skin, a beautiful appearance, and a look that did not look like a living thing appeared in front of Leer.
