I like crossing the most

Chapter 309 Transaction
The transaction with [Hestia Familia] went very smoothly.

After all, they can save their companions and gain huge property at the same time. It is a win-win situation for them, and there is no reason not to agree.

As for whether it can be done, it is not within the scope of consideration. What [Hestia Familiars] has to do is to lend their own name, and then hug the big brother (Xiao Lin)'s thigh and wait for the harvest.

When the plan was finalized, Hestia couldn't close her mouth with joy. Bell and the others felt deeply ashamed of their god's shamelessness.

It was already evening.

Xiao Lin stood up to say goodbye, and Ming came out specially to see him off.

The two walked side by side through the corridor and along the path in the courtyard.It wasn't until he was about to walk out the door that he broke the silence.

Ming first bowed deeply, and said with tears in his eyes full of gratitude: "Your Excellency Xiaolin, I really don't know how to thank you. Chun Ji is my childhood sweetheart who grew up with me. When I heard that she was It's unbelievable to be sold as a slave and a prostitute, let alone such a coincidence...!"

"Do you really think so?"

"what?"

"I mean, is it possible that I came to [Hestia Familia] specifically for help?"

"……Eh?"

Ming's eyes widened slightly.

When she was struck by these words, Xiaolin's reasoning with obvious purpose rang in her ears.

"——I once talked with Haruhime, and she told me that she was the daughter of a noble from the Far East, and she was a true princess. And it just so happened that Kenyu Raigoshen also came to the Labyrinth City from the Far East.

Do you think that Haruhime, your Royal Highness the Princess, will know the God of Thunder?Did I learn about your relationship from her? "

"........."

Life is silent.

She is upright, not an idiot.If she still couldn't guess that Xiaolin had plotted against them, then she was really hopelessly stupid.

"But even so, I still want to thank Mr. Xiaolin."

"Oh? What's the reason?"

"No matter what purpose Mr. Kobayashi has, the information about Haruhime was told to us by Mr. Kobayashi, so we must thank Mr. Kobayashi no matter what."

After saying that, she bowed deeply again.

really not bad.

Xiaolin admires her very much.

Because Ming has the consciousness to risk his life for his companions.

It would be better to say that [Hestia Familia] all have this kind of awareness, so they come to them instead of [Jianyu Thunder Familia].

It seems that Mingya noticed the irrationality in Xiaolin's words.

Surprisingly sharp.

"Then I'll go back first. Please go slowly, Mr. Xiaolin, and Mr. Daphne."

Farewell respectfully.

Xiaolin smiled and left the mansion.

Daphne followed.

By the way, Cassandra was currently being carried by Daphne, and she was still asleep.

They walked towards South Street.

Climbing up the steps and crossing the inner city wall, a not-so-bright magic stone lamp illuminated the path.

Unlike Flower Street, and the bustling urban center, the atmosphere here is quiet and dark, with countless mice around the corner.

Using this path as a dividing line, the labyrinth city is divided into two.

"Sorry, I have to go this way next."

Daphne pointed towards the dark alley.

Unlike the [Apollo Familia], the [Mihe Familia] was originally stationed in this kind of place.

"Then I'll go this way."

Kobayashi pointed to the bright urban center.

Without much conversation or pleasantries, he turned to leave.

"Wait, Mr. Kobayashi."

"Anything else?"

Turning her head, she seemed to be asking her if there was anything else she could do?
Daphne pursed her lips and hesitated, but finally said with a serious face: "I won't tell anyone what happened today, please don't worry, Mr. Xiaolin."

She was referring to the deal between Xiaolin and [Hestia Familia].

Generally speaking, such confidential things should not be said when there are outsiders, but it seems that Hestia trusted them as Mihe's family members, and subconsciously ignored them.

But in order not to cause resentment or misunderstanding, Daphne felt that she still had to express something.

Xiao Lin didn't take it seriously.

Daphne is now Mih's dependent and there is no way she can cause trouble.And on the surface, Kobayashi seems to be an enemy who destroyed her family, but in fact she is a good person who helped her free from Apollo's minions, and there is no grudge between them.

only……

"You don't seem to be worried about my informant?"

"It's better to say that I kind of want you to tell the truth."

"Um???"

Daphne's face was filled with questions.

She was a little confused about what the man in front of her really thought.

Seeing her curiosity, Kobayashi said, "Hehe, I'm still worried that I can't find her flaws. If you want her to perish, you must first drive her crazy. If Ishtar knows that someone is going to target her, but because there is no time Do you think she’ll go crazy if she can’t get the props?”

【Ishtar Familia】Now we are in a dilemma.If she wanted to sacrifice Chun Ji to obtain the fragments of the killing stone, she had to wait until the next full moon, but Xiao Lin would not give her this time.

If the people don't give it, they will immediately start a family war.

When the time comes, Chun Ji will be exported in the clan war. It's like a chicken flying over an egg.

"This is a conspiracy, Miss Daphne."

Under the illumination of the magic stone lamp, the eyes of the upper half of the face shrouded in darkness reflected full of malice, and the two ends of the mouth raised to the corners of the mouth.

"Already checkmate."

"..."

Daphne swallowed.

The dry throat felt grainy when swallowed, which stung her brain and nerves.

The man in front of her has reached the top of adventurers in terms of intelligence and strength. In her knowledge, only [Brave] Finn can compare with him.

She had to admit that Xiaolin had become her nightmare.

The heart of playing tactics is dirty!
It’s so scary, I really want to go home!

Xiao Lin also saw that Daphne's pale face was twitching and something was wrong, so he told her to take a good rest and turned to leave.

Daphne looked at the retreating figure, her tense nerves relaxed, and she took a long breath.

"Uh... Daphne... I still want to eat... uh... please... just one..."

Suddenly she heard Cassandra talking in her sleep, and she felt a little envious when she saw her friend sleeping so soundly.

Not knowing anything is a blessing.

she exclaimed.

------

The next day, when Xiaolin came to the guild early to tell Ouranos about his work progress, he was suddenly stopped by Aegina.

"Mr. Xiaolin, do you have time now?"

"Uh...Miss Eina?"

"Can I go to the interview room? I want to confirm something with you."

The tone used was extremely formal and respectful, without the previous intimacy.Looking at her dark face with bulging veins on her forehead, and her sullen expression but still maintaining a minimum smile, you can tell that she is very angry now.

Then, regardless of whether Xiao Lin agreed or not, he opened the door of the interview room first, and his green eyes signaled him to come in quickly.

Angry Eina is really scary.

Xiaolin clicked his tongue.

Bang——The sound of a huge door closing spread throughout the guild hall.

The staff's eyes lit up, and they were eager to gossip. They quickly ran over and put their ears to the door to eavesdrop.But this was a soundproof room specially designed for confidential discussions. They couldn't hear anything and could only return to their respective posts with secret resentment.

And it was already dangerous and scary inside.

When the door was closed, Aegina immediately put away her smile and showed contemptuous eyes.

She was standing opposite across the table, leaning on the table with both hands and pressing her upper body over.He raised his eyebrows, blushed and asked sternly:
"Why did you go to the red light district to have fun? Also, you are going to go to war with the [Ishtar Familia] over a prostitute. What are you thinking!"

Probably because of the elf blood in her body, Eina felt angry at Xiaolin for being so depraved...and shy.

"It's not that I can't understand it. After all, Xiaolin is an adventurer and a man... and he's at the right age to be interested in that kind of thing... But because of that... it's absolutely not possible! Is it possible? It’s not enough to meet Miss Liuzi, do you have to go to that kind of place?”

When she said this, her face turned red all the way to her pointed ears, and she seemed to find it difficult to speak.

I just don’t know why, but I feel inexplicably lost in my heart.

However, Liu Zi deliberately added fuel to the fire and said with a venomous tongue: "There is no way, Lady Eina. Lady Xiaolin's desire is ten times stronger than that of a monkey, and she has to torment every night until dawn. In addition, due to my own reasons I couldn’t satisfy him, so I went to that kind of place.”

"Hey, Liu Zi, don't be jealous!"

Xiao Lin's expression changed.

When he saw the fire coming from Eina's back, he knew he was doomed.

But instead of waiting for a fierce scolding, he stayed away from him and sat back on the chair with his hands folded, extremely shy and surprised:

"—Beast!"

She seemed shocked by Kobayashi's staying power.

Kobayashi was also shocked.

I didn’t expect you to be like this Eina.

"It has unfolded inexplicably since just now, and I don't even know what to say."

"I don't know how to argue."

"It's not."

Kobayashi sighed slightly.

It seemed that there was some kind of misunderstanding.

After giving both parties a chance to calm down, after a very embarrassing time, Xiao Lin took the initiative to say: "Let me explain in advance, I didn't go to Huajie on my own initiative."

"Ok?"

"Everything is God's task."

Then, he told her completely about Ouranos's commission and what happened in Flower Street.

After hearing this, Aina's face was full of shyness, but she couldn't help but ask: "Then why did Miss Liuzi say... you, you are going to Flower Street... or something."

"Of course I'm lying to you."

"Lord Xiaolin, I have to correct you. I didn't lie to Lord Eina in the first half."

first half?

In other words, working until dawn every day?
"... beast!"

"Still struggling with this?!"

Aina turned her head away from Xiao Lin, and her red face was not clear whether it was because of shyness because of Xiao Lin's amazing endurance, or because of embarrassment due to misunderstanding.

"By the way, why does Eina know about this?"

"Because everyone knows about the commotion you made in Flower Street."

The half-elf girl rolled her eyes at him angrily.

It's no wonder she's so angry, it's just that the rumors about the labyrinth city are getting more and more exaggerated, and the rumors are so miraculous that it's unbelievable.

"……I see."

Xiao Lin was negligent.

If they want to get Haruhime, not only will someone from their side spread the news, but someone from the [Ishtar Familia] will also spread such news.

Those Amazons love gossip, and they're sure to spread the word.

Ishta would definitely be furious if she dared to challenge herself for the sake of a prostitute.

Aina suddenly asked: "Xiao Lin, the girl you said will be used as a sacrifice, is it true?"

"It's true. Although the [Ishtar Familia] is hiding very well now, I have a special intelligence channel and have confirmed the news. That's why I want to save her."

"Really...then you must rescue her, otherwise it's too pitiful."

Too pitiful?
In fact, if humanity or other factors are not taken into consideration, it is undoubtedly the most reasonable approach to use Haruhime as a sacrifice so that many people will receive an increase.

But now is not an emergency period, and Ishtar wants to use it to do evil things. The most important thing is that Haruhime is the person Xiaolin likes, so she has to be stopped.

"Actually, the guild has already taken measures to deal with the issue of the [Ishtar Familia] five years ago..."

Eina told some interesting information.

The guild did not adopt a wait-and-see attitude as it appeared on the surface, but prepared everything in secret, waiting for someone to solve this matter.

Sure enough, this strange feeling...

Kobayashi was lost in thought.

After getting all the information about the [Ishtar Familia] from Eina, he got up and left.

Walking on the street, many adventurers pointed at him.It seems that what he did the day before yesterday has spread.

Even Hill knew it.

It's just that her focus doesn't seem right.

"...So, did it happen or not?"

"what?"

"I'm asking you, did you have sex with that vixen whore, or didn't you?"

Her upper body pressed forward, and her exquisite body pressed against Xiao Lin's chest.The expressionless little face was raised, and the silver-gray eyes were fixed on Xiao Lin's eyes, with obvious inquiry as if they wanted to see if he was lying.

He was so close that he could smell the fragrance of her body.

The ability to charm became more and more intense, and Xiao Lin subconsciously gave in: "This, this..."

"Don't even think about escaping."

Hill hugged his arm and held it tight to prevent him from moving.

very scary!
To be honest, her current charm ability is already exaggerated, and the other maids in the shop are obviously not in the right state.

Just when Xiaolin wanted to leave to let her calm down, an elf girl pulled away from her.

"You are so excited, Hill. Mr. Xiaolin can't even speak properly."

"Lyu? Let, let go of me, Lyu!"

"Okay, let Mr. Xiaolin take a breath."

Lyu ignored Hill's noise and forcefully pulled her over. At the same time, he signaled with his eyes that Xiaolin should leave now if he wanted to.

Xiao Lin returned the look with gratitude, but did not leave.After getting a chance to breathe, he quickly said the words he had said to Aina before.

That’s right, it’s all God’s task.

"Then why did Xiaolin do this?"

There was a bit of blame in Hill's eyes, as if he was complaining about his impulsiveness and recklessness.

"There's nothing I can do about it." Xiao Lin shrugged, "Because I can't turn a blind eye when someone reaches out to me for help."

"Well."

Hill pursed his lips.

She remembered that Xiao Lin had such a character, which was an unchangeable essence engraved in his soul.Subconsciously, he stretched out his hand towards him and asked with some self-abasement:

"Then, if I reach out to Xiaolin one day, will you come to save me?"

"--I can!"

Xiao Lin held her hand without any hesitation.

Hill's eyes looked directly at the shining soul, and fell into intoxication.

There's no way, she just likes it.
