Nobody told me it's not a game

Chapter 195 Fair Deal

Melville looked at Zuo Chang aggressively, his finger was still on the engraving.

She smiled and continued: "Thank you for your gift, I will make good use of it. If we meet in the main match and you are defeated by this 'imprint' again, I hope you can accept everything frankly——" Not for nothing, you at least gained my friendship."

To this-

Zuo Chang really wanted to ask, how much is her friendship worth?

The biggest reason why the "hidden benefits" are so happy to be informed is:

Zuo Chang did not see Melville as a threat.

The battle for the crown is a world quest, and the intensity of the participants is unbelievable.

Even during the game, Zuo Chang failed to become the "Crowned Hero".

That time, the "half-dragon" team from the No. 2 community gave him a head-on blow.

The body of a real dragon whose strength exceeds that of the "ghost back";

"Dragon language magic" that can still cause great damage beyond the visual distance;
There is also a "true dragon form" that directly transforms into a dragon.

That exorcist team made Zuo Chang come and go, and returned in a big defeat!

By comparison……

Melville's like this is really not worth laughing at.

Zuo Chang looked at her and said, "Melville, if I'm not wrong, you should have come with a mission, right?"

Melville frowned slightly, and the reaction was a bit big: "What's the matter?"

"I don't know the community you were born in, but I know that the battle for the crown is an irresistible temptation for every adventurer who yearns for a higher place. Ordinary communities will promise benefits for the greatest success rate. The general's seal is distributed as much as possible to his subordinates, so as to increase the success rate."

"I think that's why you came here."

Melville didn't know what Zuo Chang wanted to say.

This is normal operation.

Don't say it's her, even if it's Lu Zheng, isn't that how he came here?

but--

At this moment, she is a little guilty.

For a community lord, it is of course a great thing to have a "crown adventurer" under his hand;
For an adventurer, achieving the crown and gaining great power is also a great thing.

And because of the strict conditions for participating in the competition for the crown, those who are eligible to participate must be extremely capable, and must—

Zuo Chang looked at Melville, with a sneering smile on the corner of his mouth: "There are at least ten million people in a community, but at most seven people can participate in the championship competition. Therefore, in addition to strength, family background must also be prominent , otherwise how could it be your turn? How about you, Melville?"

"..."

This time, Melville was really silent.

Zuo Chang continued: "You don't have a good family background, do you? The only thing you talk about is 'Descendants of the Witch', but what kind of honorary title is the Descendants of the Witch? It's probably not qualified for whitewashing."

Resentment breeds.

There was no emotion in Melville's green eyes, and waves of anger rushed into her brain.

She clenched her fist unconsciously, squinted her eyes and asked, "Are you humiliating me, Your Excellency?"

Zuo Chang's mood is very stable: "You can think so, I don't mind."

A dignified silence appeared under the statue of the god.

In the spacious room, only the sound of water in the fountain stirred.

Zuo Chang was standing under the statue of the god, and Melville was sitting by the fountain four or five meters away from him. Neither of them spoke.

After the initial irritation, Melville slowly calmed down.

Her mind was spinning, and there was inevitably something in her heart——

sorrow.

As Zuo Chang said, the descendant of the crowned witch is not an honorary title.

Compared with his gorgeous appearance, Melville's status is not so luxurious.The only thing she deserves is her innate talent for alchemy and magic.

She dresses up carefully, learns various etiquettes, and imitates the words and deeds of "high-class people" as much as possible, but...

Melville knew in her heart that she had never been part of that circle.

This time, she had no chance in the "competition for the crown".

She barely qualified after making a "promise" to some big shot.

If she falls short, of course everything will turn into nothingness and die on the road;

If she could break through the tower of natural selection and successfully obtain the status of an exorcist, then she would still have to act as the restraint of that big man, which would be regarded as a kind of reward in another sense.

Melville sees no problem with this.

Those who are in the top position have been winning all the time.She has nothing, so pay more.

just now……

The opportunity seems to have come.

Melville turned his head and looked at Zuo Chang who was looking at the statue of the god—this man was very unkind and unmannered.

However, he seems to understand the battle for the crown very well, and has a very strong fighting power.

By his side, it seems that we can get closer to our dreams.

"cough."

Melville cleared his throat and was about to speak.

Zuo Chang turned his head to look, and said, "Speak up if you have something to say, there's no need to cough all the time, I can react."

"..."

Ok.

Melville said: "Mr. Zuo, you have offended me just now, but I don't care. I am magnanimous and can understand your rudeness."

Zuo Chang looked at her in confusion: "Obviously you offended me first. Melville, I still like the way you treat each other like a commoner. Can you recover?"

"...You can't be called a man with such a small mind! I think you should be more considerate of me. After all, I am a lady. What do you think?"

"I've been taught by the internet to be a real egalitarian, and your stuff doesn't work."

"??"

This Zuo Chang, what are you talking about?
Zuo Chang looked at her with a smile, and asked curiously, "I'm curious about what price you paid to come here. Melville, I think I'm already very rude, but you are willing to swallow your anger... You want to win that much?"

Melville believes that candor may be called for now.

Zuo Chang is a powerful helper.

It was in her best interest to be honest with him.

She raised her chin slightly, domineering: "There is no price. I proposed a deal to a notorious nobleman in 5245, promising to be his lover for three years after becoming an exorcist."

Zuo Chang didn't react too much when he heard the words: "After becoming an exorcist, will you still be his lover for three years?"

"Yes."

"...Is he handsome?"

Melville smiled slightly: "He's ugly and breaks my heart."

Zuo Chang was even more incomprehensible: "You can accept this? With the fighting power you just showed, I think you should have more choices."

"I have no choice, Mr. Zuo. When the competition for the crown was just announced, the general of 5245 immediately sent someone to find me, hoping that I would represent him in the battle—but just one day later, I was disqualified."

Melville looked calm.

She raised her hand and smoothed the ends of her hair: "It was that great nobleman who played tricks behind his back. He denied my right to choose. If I still want to participate in the battle for the crown, I can only agree to his conditions."

Zuo Chang was silent.

Melville curled his lips and smiled: "It's actually not bad, right? For us adventurers, strength is the material foundation and the source of status. If I can seize this opportunity now, how can others oppress me now? You can oppress others in the future. This should... be fair."
