"That succubus's eyes when she left actually held murderous intent towards me!"
Christie watched as Liz turned and followed Anno away with wide eyes, a smile appearing on her lips. She thought to herself: Was it because I threatened Anno's life just now?
"Your Excellency Victoria, what do you mean by this?"
After Anno left, Howell looked at Christie with some doubt and asked, "The role of the Adventurers' Guild has already been demonstrated in the Kingdom of Nigar."
The most direct manifestation of this is the increase in the number of low-level professionals.
The number of professional medals issued by the Six Temples in the Kingdom of Nigar has increased several times over!
As the number of professionals increases, the country's overall strength will naturally improve, and there will always be a few geniuses who grow into leaders.
Didn't the officials in the capital analyze that the movement of adventurers could significantly boost economic and military development?
The message I received from the capital was that I should take any opportunity to cultivate a good relationship with Guild Master Anno and then get the Adventurers' Guild to settle in the Empire?
How do you feel right now...?
"Is it true that my conflict with Anno will cause the Adventurers' Guild to become hostile towards the Roland Empire?"
Christie shook her head and explained, "Don't worry, Anno isn't as short-sighted as you think. He will definitely come to the Empire!"
She had previously offered Anotti conditions, and when he heard that she would unconditionally support the Adventurers' Guild's development in the Empire, his eyes lit up.
Although it was just a test, Anno resisted the temptation.
But Christie already understood that Anno definitely had the idea of opening the Adventurers' Guild in the Empire.
"Mr. Howell, do you know what it means to see someone in person rather than just hear about them?"
During my brief encounter with Anno, my gut feeling told me that this person was dangerous!
Seeing the incredulous look on Howell's face, Christie continued, "His eyes seemed to see right through me!"
It seems that everything is transparent to him, and there are no secrets.
Actually, there was one thing he guessed correctly.
I was indeed constrained by my status and could not take action against him.
But I absolutely cannot show it.
After saying that, Christie unconsciously clenched her fist over the glass.
Under Anno's gaze, Christie appeared to be standing naked before him.
It was as if the other party could see right through him!
Having held a high position for so many years, she hadn't seen Anuo look at her with that scrutinizing gaze in a long time.
"So that's why you threatened him just now?"
Howell didn't understand Christie's intuition, but he understood why Christie had just drawn her sword against Anno.
Christie narrowed her eyes, and the image of Anno's Evil King's True Eye flashed through her mind.
That golden eye.
There's definitely something wrong!
And the technique he used to kill that ninth-tier god.
The intense aura of death even made Mankage sense the danger.
"Anno, Summoner, an ancient profession from a thousand years ago!"
interesting!
Although he is only at the eighth level at present, he has mastered such skills and is shrouded in many mysteries!
In addition, a large number of god-level powerhouses have emerged on the mainland.
The days to come are sure to be very exciting.
You're right, aren't you, Manji?
Christie, head bowed and muttering to herself, slowly curled her lips into a smile, her body trembling.
Whoosh!
As if in response to his master's question, the sword at Christie's waist slid up about a centimeter on its own, emitting a soft hum.
......
"Perhaps you should learn more about my family!"
As Anno walked out of the Duke's castle, Christie's last words kept replaying in his mind.
"The Victoria family of the Sword Saints? Victoria?"
Anno realized that he didn't really know much about this family.
All that is known is that this family is the sword saint family of the Roland Empire, and has produced several sword saints.
"etc......"
Anno suddenly realized that something was wrong.
The Victoria family is known as the Imperial Sword Saint Family.
It's not because Christie is a sword saint.
Rather, it's because several sword saints had appeared before Christie.
However, Christie reached the ninth-tier sword saint level at the age of twenty, which was the shortest time!
He is the most talented and strongest swordsman in the Victoria family.
"It's not a big deal for a family to have a few talented people, but it might be a problem if multiple sword saints appear."
It's unclear whether these sword saints appear continuously or intermittently.
If it's the former, the problem could be much bigger!
Anno suddenly realized the problem.
He planned to have the investigators gather intelligence on the Victoria family privately and thoroughly later.
After thinking it over, Anno turned around and said to Liz beside him, "Liz, next time don't show your killing intent so obviously."
If the other party is the kind of person who doesn't care about their status, then we'll both stay there!
"But that woman dared to point a sword at your master and even slap your neck with it!"
If Anno hadn't stopped Liz, she would have been prepared to whip Christie even if it meant her death.
"But no matter how much she threatened me, she ultimately didn't lay a hand on me, did she?"
Anno stopped and gently ruffled Liz's hair, saying softly, "She cares about her image, so we'll give it to her."
"At worst, we'll get our face back later!"
Liz pouted and said angrily, "But...but I just can't stand it!"
"Don't be angry anymore, let's go back to eat. Sasser and the others must be getting impatient. We have to continue our journey tomorrow!"
"OK!"
Liz crossed Anno's right arm over her chest and leaned on him as they walked along the road toward the hotel.
