Vol 4 Chapter 41 kindness, kindness
Of course, Grelint just thought about such a thought. If he really had to trust Adam completely, his end would not be better than Medici.
…
The next day, the two of them had just arrived at the port of Gallia by steam train when a man in a peaked cap took the initiative to find them. He was a crew member of the Star Pirates.
Without a servant, Grelint had to carry his suitcase and board a small fishing boat with Carroll one after the other. “Admiral Star” is also a famous pirate general in the five seas, and among several pirate generals, the ranking is still very high. Of course, it is impossible for her sea-going ship to dock at a civilian port with a swagger.
“Meet again, Your Excellency Admiral Star.”
Cattleya nodded and responded politely:
“Good afternoon, Viscount Mariano.”
“Just call me by my name, ma’am.”
Grelint looked around subconsciously and found that no one showed any abnormality to that identity, so he could not help secretly relieved. No way, that day was the first time he went to see Ursula, and it was not easy to use a fake face… He didn’t expect Bernadette and Cattleya to be there, which led to his next series of actions, All had to use their real identities.
“Okay, Mr. Grelint.”
Cattleya didn’t know what concerns Grelint had, but she was experienced and didn’t ask too much. Anyway, it had nothing to do with herself.
…
After Carol and Cattleya’s chat was over, Grelint greeted her briefly, both of whom were friendly.
At Carroll’s house two days ago, Grelint and Bernadette had a bit of trouble – Grelint was nothing, it was mainly because the woman deliberately picked things up… Even so, Grelint’s relationship with Cattleya was unpleasant. Impression is not bad.
There are some preconceived ideas based on the “original book”, but Carroll seems very happy that they can get along in harmony. After all, one side is her good friend, and she has longed and admired her big sister since childhood, and the other side is her. Lover… um, has been automatically dismissed, just last night, after she and Grelint exchanged “good night”.
In other words, Grelint can no longer call herself her boyfriend.
After greeting the two of them, Cattleya didn’t talk about it any more, and while leading the two of them to the cabin entrance, she briefly introduced:
“With normal sailing, it would take us twenty days to reach the Sunya Sea, and from the Sunya Sea to the ruins of the battle of gods, and inside the ruins of the battle of gods, there is also a long voyage… And the east of the whaling route is very Dangerous, in order to ensure safety, I have only one ship, the Mirai, and the minimum number of people to ensure the sailing.”
No wonder…
Grelin nodded, facing the eyes of the crew members, walking indifferently beside Cattleya. At this time, the stopped Future has raised its sails and set sail again.
With Carol present, and Grelint seemed to have the will to conceal her identity, Cattleya didn’t formally introduce them to Frank Lee and Heath Doyle, but only told them their names so that they could The two sides conducted normal exchanges and concealed their true identities.
Then she took them directly to the captain’s room:
“Your room is diagonally opposite, the seventh room on the left, if you’re not sure which room it is, you can also ask Frank… If you have anything, you can come to me directly… The Future is available all day. Food, you can go to the restaurant at any time, and of course, you can have Frank send the food directly to the room.”
“it is good.”
Very neat!
Grelint secretly praised, as if thinking of something, and asked her directly:
“By the way, I still have something I want to ask, hehe, that’s a bit presumptuous.”
Presumptuous? Cattleya didn’t speak, but motioned for him to continue… Carol didn’t know what he was selling, so she turned her head and cast her curious eyes at him.
Grelint had a draft for a long time, and said quietly:
“It’s about the formula of the ‘Secret Peer’ pathway potion. I have a, um, a friend who is asking for the formula of the ‘Astral Master’.”
This was of course asked for Joffrey.
“I wonder if you mind selling?”
Cattleya glanced at Carroll, then put her eyes back on him:
“Can I get to know his general condition first?”
“What do you want to know?”
“For example, acting talent, progress, and age, as well as the purpose of his purchase of the formula… I mean, whether he is making the purchase in the name of an individual or an extraordinary organization.”
Grelint frowned invisibly, organized language, gave a general introduction to Joffrey’s situation, and added:
“He doesn’t belong to any organization, and the formula he bought is for his own use. Of course, it may also be passed on to his disciples and students.”
Understand clearly, Cattleya nodded and said:
“As long as it’s not an extraordinary organization, and as long as he is willing to pay, of course I have no reason not to sell it.”
“But to be honest, based on your description of the old gentleman’s situation, I don’t recommend him to seek promotion. After all, his acting talent can only be said to be average, and low-order potions are all based on a long time. It’s natural to run in. Coupled with his old age, after being promoted to Sequence 5, the knowledge instilled by the ‘Hidden Sage’ will increase violently… Even if he succeeds in promotion, it is very dangerous for the old gentleman. ”
This is indeed a problem.
However, Mr. Joffrey has no other hobbies. He has been pursuing and exploring the mysterious world all his life. If he makes decisions for him in the name of “for his own good”…it seems too selfish?
Grelint’s brows wrinkled into a word “Chuan”. After pondering for a long time, he decided to buy the formula first, and then decide whether to give him the formula depending on Mr. Joffrey’s performance:
“You can make an offer. I still want to buy the formula first, and I will think more about it later.”
Cattleya did not persuade any further:
“That’s okay, 5,000 gold pounds, or equivalent materials, properties, and magical items, all are fine.”
She does not refuse anyone who comes, because with her way, there is no need to worry that there will be no medium and low sequence things that will not be realized.
The gold pound is the most valuable currency in the world, and Grelint is also a Loen noble, so her reference price is demarcated in gold pounds.
The deal with Audrey hasn’t been completed yet, and Grelint really can’t come up with the money right now, but fortunately he has many Beyonder characteristics. When the “Servant of Madness” collapsed before, there were still several messy Beyonder characteristics left. combination.
He reported the Extraordinary characteristics that he didn’t need and obviously superfluous:
“One copy each of ‘Conspiracy’, ‘Provocateur’, and ‘Hunter’, do you think it’s okay?”
That is actually the complete “Reaper” that has been stripped of a “arsonist” and embedded in the third part of “Yuno’s Oath”.
“Very fair price, wait a moment, I’ll copy the recipe for you right away.”
Cattleya is not unfamiliar with these terms, and she doesn’t care about the small price difference between the two sides. After confirming that the value is basically the same, she took out a pen and paper and put it on the desk and quickly started writing… Grelint didn’t need to prepare, he had already He planned to buy this formula – if he wasn’t afraid of bringing down the style of “Lord of Order”, he actually wanted Bernadette to give a formula by the way.
…
After the transaction was completed, Grelint was led to the room by Carroll while reading the recipe.
“Where do you have a friend who is ‘Professor Scroll’? Backlund’s?”
There is no question of cross-examination, Carroll was just a little curious, so she asked him by the way, what she knew about Grelint’s friends was mainly from the Southern Continent, mainly his subordinates, entourage, and MI9 colleagues… It is said that she was parasitic in Eudora’s spirit body, but it was from Walter that he got a clear picture of the personnel affairs of the Southern Continent of the General Intelligence Department.
“Well, he is my mysticism enlightenment teacher.”
After chatting, the two had already reached the door of the room, and Grelint put away the note and pushed open the door.
This is a multi-room suite, but it is not the kind of suite that divides the master, the second bedroom and the servant’s room as a passenger ship, but three rooms of the same size that can be circulated with each other. It has to be said that Cattleya was very thoughtful, and at the same time took care of the habits of “Roen and Intis nobles”, and also took into account the unclear degree of intimacy between them.
Putting down the suitcase, Grelint was just about to pack up when he heard Carroll say:
“That’s how it is…”
She didn’t ask more about Joffrey, but asked with great interest:
“By the way, I still don’t know what friends you have in Backlund? Especially Beyonder friends, can you chat with me?”
As for ordinary people, she is somewhat arrogant and does not have much interest in paying attention.
This is indeed the case. Beyonders like Grelint and her, the mid-sequence is just the starting point for exploring the mysterious world, and they all have a lot of confidence in being able to advance to the high-sequence, and their connection with ordinary people is destined to become more and more. Less.
“Uh… Backlund’s Beyonder friend? My teacher counts as one, and there are two partners, one is a Sequence 6 and the other is a Sequence 5. They are half a friend.” He was referring to Sharon and Maric, but it was basically forcibly brought in. In fact, although they cooperated happily, speaking of friendship, it really wasn’t too much.
Then, his voice dropped a few decibels, and for some reason, he said with a little guilty conscience:
“There’s another one. It’s my childhood friend. She was introduced to the mysterious world by me.”
“She? A friend from childhood? You introduced the mysterious world?”
Unsurprisingly, Carroll, like most girls, has an unusually sharp perception in some aspects, and locked in three key pieces of information in Grelint’s words at once.
Grelint’s scalp tightened, and he unsuccessfully changed the subject and explained:
“Well, the daughter of an elder, after my father passed away, that elder helped me a lot.”
But obviously, the girl didn’t care about his elder.
