In the blink of an eye, two days have passed.
During these two days, Louis has been conducting shallow experints on the effects of the Mask of Greed with Instructor Jino.
Just now, after Louis said, "The sword technique of Nine Swords is really hard to learn," he was directly thrown out of the Imperial Palace by Jino with a smirk.
"I think you need to hone your combat skills,"
said Jino, who hurried to Saint Louis Academy without stopping.
He wanted to spar with his master to lower his blood pressure, otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight.
On the other side.
After being kicked out of the Imperial Palace, Louis simply donned his armor and transford into Caesar to head to the Adventurer Guild.
At this ti, the guild was as lively as ever, with adventurers who hadn’t taken on missions bragging and joking in the tavern area.
"I’m telling you, 20 years ago, I used this sword to pierce the knee of a mountain wyvern."
"Then why is Old Man Mi still taking porcelain-level missions?"
The old adventurer with a limp blushed, with veins popping on his forehead, and argued:
"Porcelain-level also counts as adventurers! Can adventurers’ affairs be judged by level?"
Followed by obscure words like "Until I took an arrow to the knee."
For a mont, the guild was filled with a joyful atmosphere inside and out.
However, when armored Louis walked in, the lively atmosphere suddenly cooled down.
You could vaguely hear adventurers whispering.
"Is that Caesar?"
"Tsk, the guild has such a big fraud, the face of adventurers is completely lost."
"Hey, at least he spent money to stop the undead epidemic, didn’t he?"
"Who knows if he felt guilty and was afraid of being held accountable, so he went to investigate afterward?"
"What’s there to say, there are not just one or two guys in our adventurers who double-cross each other, I quite like this ruthlessness."
"As a teammate, it feels very safe, right?"
"That’s the point, just a bit too unscrupulous."
...
The voices of praise or criticism were unabated.
The receptionist ca over and whispered:
"Mr. Caesar, the guild can help you explain... Ah!"
Louis tapped her forehead and said flatly, "Don’t do unnecessary things."
The receptionist nodded.
The matter of the Dragonbone Prairie has spread throughout the Imperial Capital.
Although the outco was good, the evaluation of Caesar among adventurers still sharply divided.
So people believe that righteousness by results is indeed just.
So people believe this is trampling on the goodwill of others.
But on the whole, denial was still the majority.
But the receptionist knew that the light and dark tasks were all planned by Mr. Caesar himself.
As for why Mr. Caesar didn’t reveal himself to ease his situation?
"You guys curse Caesar, what does that have to do with , Louis?"
"By the way, Mr. Caesar, here’s the bronze-level badge you didn’t manage to take last ti."
Aliye reached into the pocket on the side of her pants and took out a still warm badge engraved with the na [Gaius Julius Caesar].
Louis tilted his head.
How did you know I would co today?
Perhaps sensing Louis’ silence, Aliye blushed and lowered her head.
"Uh-oh, carrying it around waiting for Mr. Caesar to arrive has been exposed."
After receiving the badge, Louis looked up at Miss Aliye at the counter:
"Aliye, are there any recomnded missions recently?"
After pausing for a mont, he added, "I want bronze-level ones."
Aliye’s smile blossod as she nodded and said:
"Won’t you consider an investigation mission? I’ve noticed you’ve always been taking combat missions."
Louis shook his head, "No need, just combat missions. Tell who to kill? Where are they? How many to kill?"
Aliye thought for a mont and found a slip from her tasks:
"How about this one?"
Louis reached out and took a look.
[Ense Outer District Underground Palace Investigation Report]
[Level: Bronze]
[Mission Description: Adventurers discovered unique dungeon creatures in the capital’s sewers. Upon confirmation, they originated from prehistoric ruins in the outer district. Please investigate the source of the creatures in the underground palace group]
[Note: This mission is only open to adventure groups]
Unique dungeon creatures?
Louis frowned.
"Were signs of dungeon creature chaos present 8 years ago?"
This matter was updated in several previous diaries.
Because it was too long ago from the present, Louis didn’t consider it a priority.
Moreover, based on the last diary update, this matter was directly solved by his future self, so he cared even less.
This matter had to start with the selection of Ense’s new capital site.
The Ense Imperial Palace was built along the mountain, with large ruins sunken into the soil below.
At the foot of the Imperial Palace’s mountain path, there was a stone tablet from ancient tis inscribed with:
"In the sixth year of the origin, the water rose above this mark."
As ti passed, flat lands turned into mountains and mountains sank underground, forming a group of relic palaces beneath the outer city area.
In the year 14478, a large number of dungeon monsters suddenly erged from the relics, attacking the outer city.
During the first update of the future diary, these monsters caused massive destruction, becoming one of the factors leading to the deteriorating defense of Tino City.
But in the latest update of the future diary, this matter was no longer ntioned.
Because this year, Louis ascended to legend.
The good citizens of Tino witnessed Louis’ coronation and then watched as he wielded a sword and decimated the entire relic area.
The scene could be summarized as—
A piece here, a piece there.
One piece of this, one piece of that.
A chop from you, a chop from .
To quickly consu this batch of monster at and to pacify the hearts of the outer city residents, our prince threw a grand feast, inviting the entire city to eat for three days.
It was just unexpected that now there are traces of dungeon monsters active in the outer city relics.
Louis frowned, "Keep this task for ; I’ll ask Alice."
Aliye smiled and said, "Then it’s better for you to ask Lord Alice, I’ll... ah!"
A slapping sound echoed as Alice retracted her hand, casually wrapping her arm around Aliye’s shoulders like a female delinquent teasing an innocent girl.
When making eye contact with Louis, she even gave him a fierce glare.
Seeing Aliye look towards Louis with a pleading expression, Louis spread his hands helplessly.
"We’ll take this task."
Alice took the list from Aliye’s hands, adding teasingly:
"I’m so envious, when I first joined the guild, darling never considered so much."
"These reconnaissance and combat hybrid tasks are perfect for new adventurers to get into the swing of things."
"Usually they get snatched up imdiately once posted, didn’t expect it would still be available at this ti today."
Aliye’s face began to redden again.
"If there’s nothing more, I’ll take my leave first."
He had been slaying undead all day at Dragonbone Prairie, his heart as cold as his sword.
Not to ntion...
Louis gave Alice a aningful look.
Poor commander, toyed with at her whim.
Who’s teasing whom between you and the reception lady, that’s hard to say.
"Tomorrow we’ll head to the outer city, no problem, right, Commander?"
"If you think it’s fine, then it’s fine."
"This ti you didn’t say ’I’m the commander!’?"
"You’ll regret it, Louis!"
Good grief, this twist, directly counter-heaven, huh.
...
At this mont.
In a corner of Tino City.
William returned ho to find his muscled grandfather shirtless, bandaging up his father.
He was shocked, "Father, what happened to you?"
"It’s nothing, just encountered so devils on the way back to the city and got into a brawl with those little demons, but it’s all handled now."
William was sowhat worried, "Those guys from the Nine Hells are up to their tricks again?"
...
At the sa ti.
Olivia awoke from a nightmare.
She dreamt she was at Sister Wang’s engagent ceremony.
Sister Wang was still flirting with the Knight of the Way!
I can’t understand, I’m shocked.
Despite all her efforts.
For training, she had spent so money to hire Hell Instructor Jino.
For strategy, she specifically chose the suspicious Tino explosion.
For bravery, she even invited the future Canghong Sword King Alice to be the ntor for her adventure party.
All just to stop this from happening, and yet it only accelerated?
"Really feel like giving up, maybe just go solo against the Way Knight?"
"A dark duel, betting on Sister Wang’s future, clash with him head-on!"
"Ah, forget it, I don’t want to move."
Suddenly, Olivia rembered sothing:
"Right, the ancient teleportation array connecting the underground relics, better deal with it now before it causes trouble."
"It’ll be a real hassle to handle it later."
She lazily looked out the window, blinking as if she saw soone staring back at her from afar atop the spire of a distant church.
When she focused her gaze, the person had disappeared.
...
In a city corner.
A sigh ca from the creeping darkness, "You won’t take another look at her, Lady Olivia?"
"No need, she has her own life."
"As you wish."
