Gold is Justice

Ariel nodded again, and said with a smile: "That's right, the rent. In addition to the rent, there is also the food expenses for you and your dire bear during our mermaid song. You usually need to spend money when you take a shower in the bathroom." The water fee, the loss and wear of the training equipment caused by using the training room. Should you pay for these expenses?"

At that moment, Sweet Wine Cheese immediately changed his face, and shouted loudly: "Are you kidding me? Are you asking me for money?!"

At the same time, that dire bear turned its head and grinned at Ariel.

But Ariel didn't care, she continued to sit on the sofa, and said leisurely: "Why, is this question difficult to understand? You were a prisoner of our Song of the Mermaid before, and Song of the Mermaid treats the prisoners well, so you can Provide you with free board and lodging."

"But now that I have released you, you have personally decided to challenge us. In other words, you are no longer a prisoner of our Mermaid Song."

"I didn't ask you to collect money before, because I thought you didn't have much income after you came to Song of the Mermaid, so I gave you a little time to slow down. It's been a month, I think you have some savings, right? Now you can Have you paid it first?"

Faced with Ariel's calm and composed expression now, Amusement Cheese became even more angry. She slapped the table and said loudly: "What payment? I don't have any money! I was captured by you! You should treat the prisoners well. Yes! What? After kidnapping me here, do you want me to pay for your kidnapping?!"

Seeing that this girl really looked ignorant, Ariel could only sigh, and said, "Oh... I didn't want to go this far... If that's the case, then let's do it. Rummy Bilan , I now officially inform you that before you are ready to pay, your room in Song of Mermaid will not allow you to enter. The food of Song of Mermaid will no longer be provided to you. You will not be able to continue with the facilities of Song of Mermaid It is used. Of course, we still accept your challenge, and preparations for the challenge are still underway, but you’d better settle the board and lodging yourself during this period.”

Sweet wine cheese is not angry that her board and lodging disappeared all of a sudden, but angry that Ariel's attitude towards her is still so "arrogant and unreasonable"!

Accommodation costs?Are you kidding, dignified royals have to pay for room and board?How can there be such a reason?

"Ariel, I warn you not to go too far!"

Faced with the accusation of Amusement Cheese sticking out her finger and pointing her nose, Ariel still looked very calm, smiled, and said—"What? The dignified members of the royal family of the Blue Bay Empire, are they here to rob now because they have no money? Well, this kind of behavior is very 'royal' style."

Sweet Wine Cheese rolled her eyes at Ariel, and immediately turned her head without saying a word: "Let's go! Ask me for money? It's as if I can't live without eating and sleeping with you. You wait Go! I will beat your guild to the ground in the next challenge, and let you know how good I am!"

While talking, Tianjiu Cheese walked out of the guild gate without looking back.Naturally, the dire bear also followed out at this time.

Watching the Amusement Cheese leave, Duck over there seemed a little worried, and was about to step up to catch up immediately...

"Stop, you come back."

But before he took two steps, Ariel's voice stopped him one step ahead.

Duck turned his head to look at Ariel, and said with a look of embarrassment on his face: "President, Mummy... has never lived alone since she was a child..."

Ariel looked very calm: "Really? So what."

Dak looked outside the door twice again, and said, "That means, she doesn't know how to live alone! President, if I leave her alone, I'm worried..."

Ariel chuckled: "Worried that she won't survive?"

Duck: "No, I'm worried that she's starving and started robbing civilians by force..."

How else can it be said that the mentally disturbed know the mentally disturbed best?To put it bluntly, Ariel really didn't think of this.In her mind, that guy was at best bumping into walls in the city, and finally had to come back to find herself in despair.

But thinking about it now, it's right, that's a fighter with a dire bear!If she really started to rob, ordinary people might not be able to stop her.

At that moment, Ariel patted herself on the head, ashamed of her carelessness, and quickly said: "I understand. But you can't follow her... Go find Cream and let his sheriff take action! We have to Let this princess know what a normal way of life is. You can't kill people..."

Duck nodded, and then ran out to look for Cream.

Now, it's getting late.The fireworks in the night sky also gradually dissipated, and everything returned to tranquility.

Ariel, who has been busy all day, also needs to rest, and she also needs to adjust her spirit to avoid being overwhelmed by the heavy work inside.

But even when she was sleeping, she was still worried about that rum cheese...worried that she would do something outrageous on the first night of living alone?

This kind of worry lasted until I woke up the next day. After listening to Cream's report and confirming that the princess was honestly staying in the corner of the central square with the Dreadbear, I was relieved.

In the next three days, various reports began to fly to Ariel like snowflakes, reporting to her the life of the eldest princess.

Sure enough, the "independent life" that the eldest princess called immediately fell into trouble after leaving the support of Mermaid Song.She can only wander the streets with nothing to do every day. When she is hungry, she goes to the food stalls and grabs them.Many people knew that she was the eldest princess, so they didn't dare to react at first.But as she got more and more comfortable with it, and even began to dislike the food as delicious as Mermaid Song, someone finally started to resist.

And when she had a dispute with the stall owner because of the food issue, the sheriff team led by Cream appeared on the scene as a matter of course, and immediately ordered the rum cheese to either pay the money or put down the food.

Originally, Ariel thought that Cream's report would record the fight with the eldest princess, but she didn't expect that although she was cursing, she still put down the food and left.

With the protection of the sheriff, the rum cheese with empty pockets will naturally not be able to get free food in this huge Pelican City.

On the third day, she was finally hungry, so she curled up with her dire bear in the corner of the central square in the evening, and began to moan softly.

In fact, it is not a very troublesome thing for Ruchee to be hungry by himself, the key is that the dire bear, it will also be hungry.

Without food, the bear's mental state also appeared to be not very good, and his movements became sluggish.Especially eating and sleeping in the open day after day made the dire bear's mental state look worse and worse.

Ariel thought that maybe it was because they couldn't hear Egg's piano to suppress the pain in their bodies.

Then, it continued until the seventh day.

In the seven-day report, the only thing Ariel could see about eating rum cheese was that she drank water from the fountain in the central square.The whole person looked sluggish, the clothes on his body had not been changed, and the whole person looked very down and dirty.I believe that if it continues for a few more days, she will be no different from those beggars who sneaked into Pelican City.

However, there was a piece of information in these reports that moved Ariel a little.

That is what Cream saw with his own eyes, when this girl was so hungry that she was about to pass out, when she was facing a pie stall that was left unattended by the stall owner due to some business, she didn’t care about those pies. reach out.

"I am the royal family... As a royal family, I will never rob civilians... I will never become what that woman wants me to be...!" Cream heard this sentence with his own ears, and wrote it truthfully in included in the report.

Seeing Amazake at this point and still trying to maintain her dignity as a royal, let alone her status, Ariel was a little amazed at her perseverance and determination.

So the only question now is... How long can this girl last?

Obviously, Ariel doesn't need to worry too much about this matter.

Because when it was time to report the situation on the eighth day, Ariel saw something in it that she had been looking forward to seeing for a long time——

Amazake Bilan, wants to find a job.

That's right, she wants to find a job!

Ha ha!Did the princess who thinks so much of herself finally realize that in this world only those who work can have money to eat?To be able to realize this is really amazing!

But apart from being happy, Ariel still felt a little regretful.Because she had expected that the girl would come back and ask for a job.After all, Song of the Mermaid is the best place to provide jobs in Pelican City, but she hasn't come back...

But if you think about it carefully, Song of the Mermaid "caused" her to become the culprit she is now. How could she come back to Song of the Mermaid to look for a job with a calm face?

At the beginning, according to Cream's report, the princess had no concept of work and reward at all.She found those ordinary civilians, and said that she would help them eliminate the monsters, and then asked for a hundred gold coins as a reward.

The first thousand and 420 chapters and six chapters of the growth of the eldest princess

Of course Ariel knew she wasn't joking.

Perhaps for this princess, killing monsters is the reward for such a high reward.

But for ordinary people, such a request is completely extortion!Of course, Cream's magistrate arrived on time again to "settle the dispute".

Gradually, Rummy's work requirements became more normal.From the lines in Cream's words, Ariel could see that he was amused at the growth path of the eldest princess, and at the same time had some approval.

And on the night of the tenth day, Sweet Wine Cheese finally found a hotel willing to accept her to work.The content of the job is to help carry goods and luggage.After all, Pelican City is going to hold racing competitions and guild challenges recently, and the number of guests coming and going has begun to increase. She has some strength, and it's good to be able to help with work.

It was also on this night, I believe she was finally able to eat a full meal peacefully and sleep in a warm room, right?

Ariel wondered what she had for dinner that day?What kind of mood did you eat it with?Did you gobble it up when you ate it, completely disregarding your dignity as a royal family?

It's a pity that these things are not written in the report, and Ariel can't really ask, so she can only let it go.

It's just that on the 12th day, there was a point in Cream's report that made Ariel a little strange.

That rum cheese seems to have made contact with what appears to be an adventurer?

In the report sheet, the adventurer contacted the eldest princess who was helping in the hotel for two consecutive days.And the sweet wine cheese who seemed to be very wary of everyone actually seemed to trust the adventurer, chatting and laughing with him.

However, the specific appearance of the adventurer was not described much. Instead, Cream focused on describing his attire, indicating that the adventurer was probably not from the Blue Bay Empire. foreign traces.Especially the sword he carried with him, it didn't look like the forging process was from his own country or the Murderous Seat Empire.

Of course, there are many foreigners in Pelican City, and Ariel will not feel troubled by every foreigner who comes.However, this situation disappeared on the 13th day, and until the 15th day, the foreign adventurer never appeared next to the rum cheese.

Thinking about it this way, it shouldn't be a big deal...

In this way, Ariel began to look at these reports every day.In Cream's report, Rummy also gradually changed from being very awkward at the beginning, who would put on a royal aura when encountering some things in the hotel, and gradually began to become that annoying person. A role that has to succumb under the pressure of society and life.

Seeing her constantly moving things, going out to sell goods, entertaining guests, and even being called up by the innkeeper in the middle of the night to take care of the guests in a daze, Ariel also believed that this girl might really begin to understand the importance of being a woman. What happened to the civilians?I also hope that these experiences can make her realize more deeply what her so-called royal family really represents.

Of course, Dak also went to see her from time to time during this period.Did he see it openly or secretly, and gave her help?Then Ariel doesn't know.With Dak's strength, it is not difficult to hide it from Cream's eyes and ears.

But Ariel believed that with that girl's self-esteem, she shouldn't be so embarrassed to accept Duck's help.

The only thing I have to say about this whole thing is a bit regrettable...

Then only in this whole process, Ariel can only know her whereabouts through this kind of report, but can't witness the appearance of the eldest princess being tortured by life and work... It's really... a pity!

Alas, she actually kind of hoped that there would be that kind of rum cheese because she really couldn't survive outside, so in the end she could only humbly ask herself to let her arrange a job for her.At least, Ariel thought that she would rely on her fighting power and come to pray for some security tasks...

Unexpectedly, she would rather go to the hotel to carry the dishes and wash the toilet than to beg herself.On this point, Ariel has to appreciate that her understanding of dignity is indeed somewhat superior, and it also makes Ariel feel that this girl herself does have something worthy of respect.

As time passed day by day, Ariel didn't care much about this kind of reward, and her attention was also on the other aspects of Pelican City written by Cream on the report sheet.

However, when the hot weather came to the end of July, and the entire Pelican City began to be surrounded by the scorching heat of midsummer, a report that made her feel a little uneasy came to her desk.

"President."

In the morning of this day, Dak walked in from the outside with a serious expression on his face.He looked around, and saw that there were still many administrative officials around, looking at him in confusion.

But Dak didn't care about that much anymore, he went directly to Ariel, and handed a document in his hand to the president.

"What happened?"

Ariel asked while opening the file.

Darke exhaled slowly, and said, "Something...here it is, and there are quite a few of them."

As for Ariel, she opened the document and looked at the detailed content described on it, her complexion also became serious.At that moment, she refolded the documents in her hand, looked around at the strange and puzzled administrative officials, and said——

"The Thunder Army has broken through Shanxiu Town three days ago, and now it has entered the Border Province and is approaching Xiehu City."

As soon as they heard the name Thunder Army, the complexions of everyone present immediately turned serious.

They looked at me and at you, their faces suddenly changed color, and they looked a little flustered.

Such a reaction is not surprising, after all... this is not the first time that Pelican City has come into contact with this army.

Although the other party wanted to hide a little bit about the purchase of arms for the [-] gold coins and most of the elemental guns after that, judging from the various situations, it was basically the Thunder Army who was behind it.

After discussing with each other for a moment, Dak said, "President, do we need to prepare for the battle?"

After thinking about it, Ariel asked, "Did the Thunder Army show an attacking stance?"

Dak shook his head slightly: "Judging from the reports from the front line, they did not show an aggressive posture. It seems that they should regard us as the same kind at present. After all, on the surface, they belong to the same category as us. Rebels. Even, their rebellion against the Blue Bay Empire is a little bit more intense than ours."

Thunder Army - an army recognized by the Blue Bay Empire as a terrorist organization.

It's a joke to say it, after all, the so-called Thunder Army was only formed in the last two years, and from the beginning it was just a bandit gang of more than a dozen people.However, due to various complicated situations within the empire in the past two years, this small army has continuously attacked towns and villages, plundered wealth, killed local nobles and landlords, and robbed wealth.Gradually, this army has developed into a wandering army of more than a thousand people in such a short period of time.

Why do you say wandering?

Because on the surface, the Thunder Army is not obsessed with seizing territory, but begins to carry out large-scale looting after attacking villages or towns.Especially for the big local families, they are merciless.
