Mad Elf's Diary of a Scumbag

Chapter 23 The wise Adele

"Do you understand?"

On the roof of the hotel, Adele hugged her knees and stared blankly at the bloody sunset in the distance.

A glass of freshly squeezed green juice suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, followed by that annoying figure.

"Ha! It's only been 15 minutes and you're done. Why, are you suffering from kidney deficiency?"

A strange smile appeared on the corner of Adele's mouth, and she did not forget to mock.

"Ah, where did you want to go? I just let her try on the new uniform of the bar."

"How is her brother doing?"

"Both kidneys were removed, and he was barely hanging on."

"What do those drow want with his kidney?"

"Don't you understand this? Kidneys are used to sacrifice to the goddess. I heard that the boy's kidneys are her favorite."

“He will use the flames of desire to roast it until it is brown, and when it is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sprinkle it with chili pepper and cumin, and dip it in soy sauce and miso.”

"Pair it with crisp cucumber shreds and radish strips, wrap it with bread, a bite of green onions, a bite of kidney..."

Seeing that Lance was getting more and more arrogant, Adele reached out and patted Lance's thigh dissatisfiedly.

"Speak the truth!"

"Na! I bought it especially for you."

Adele rolled her eyes at Lance, but still accepted it obediently.

After taking a sip gently, the familiar sweet and sour taste still lingered in my mouth.

"Okay, seriously, I know you like the sour taste, so I added some ingredients to it."

"Pfft! Cough cough cough cough!"

"It's your favorite sour berry, be happy!"

Lance patted her back diligently, but what he got in return for such enthusiastic help was Adele's glare.

After a while, Adele looked away, took another sip of green juice, and asked lightly:

"Is money that important?"

"Nonsense, of course money is important. When you were born, you were the eldest daughter of the Amastasia family. You have never been poor, so you don't understand."

"This is a copper coin. You have never held it with your own hands, right? Feel its weight."

Lance handed over a dark brown copper coin, and Adele put it in her palm with a puzzled expression and rubbed it gently.

"It's quite beautiful. What's wrong?"

"Two copper coins can buy a piece of black bread. If a couple has three children, a full meal will cost fifteen copper coins."

"One hundred such copper coins can be exchanged for one silver coin, and ten silver coins can be exchanged for one gold coin."

"Most people in this world work hard for a month and receive only two silver coins as a reward."

Having said this, Lance handed Adele another silver coin.

"So even if a husband and wife work together, leaving early and coming back late, working diligently, they will still be hungry every day."

"Julia and her brother were like this. They lived in hunger all their lives."

"If they want to get ahead and let their families live a good life, they can only fight with their lives!"

"Have you seen this gold coin? Most people can't save it in ten years."

"It was for this gold coin that Julia's brother joined the adventure team heading to the underground world."

"Now tell me whether money is important or not."

Adele silently took the gold coins from Lance's hand. The three coins shone seductively in her palm.

For the first time, Adele felt that the weight of money was so heavy.

"This is all the savings of Julia and his brother. It's ridiculous, right?"

"Their brothers and sisters have been fighting hard for several years, but it's not as much as your one-day fine."

"Go back to the Elf Forest as soon as possible. This place is not suitable for you. I know that you came here because you were running away from your marriage."

"Your job as a peace officer is mostly playful."

"Have you ever wondered why the city lord placed you in a wealthy area and fined you?"

"Your salary is the highest among officials in Glory City."

"That's two gold coins every month! Even though you've never received it."

"But in order to keep your high-paying job, a mysterious person donates two thousand gold coins to the city lord's palace every month."

"So go back and stop making trouble. Your family is still waiting for you."

Lance looked at Adele tenderly and taught her in a teaching tone.

I just hope that she can turn around and return to a warm family.

To meet her father, who was still in his youth, and her mother, who had raised nineteen faces.

There is no way, as an alternative among the elves, the Amastasha family is so wild.

Even the original Sun Elf King couldn't control them, let alone the current Silver Moon family.

In contrast, Adele, who has the same concept of chastity as a normal elf, is an alternative to the Amastasia family.

Watching Adele slowly bury her face in her knees, her shoulders twitching uncontrollably.

Lance also felt a hint of unbearability in his heart.

"Cry, cry. If you want to blame me, blame them for giving me too much."

Those big guys paid 20 gold coins on the spot without blinking an eye!

I don’t know when the remaining one hundred pure elf girls will arrive.

He, Lance, was not someone who gave up the entire forest just for a big tree!

"How do you know about me?"

Adele's faint voice came, making Lance stiffen.

"Ah, yes, yes, how do I know these things?"

"Pfft, hahahaha! You're so funny!"

Adele suddenly straightened up, her pretty face turning red from suppressing her laughter.

"Tell me, how much did they pay you?"

Adele gently brushed her long brown hair around her ears, and her green eyes revealed a sharp light.

She stared firmly into Lance's eyes, and it wasn't until he looked away guiltily that a victorious smile appeared on Adele's face.

"Where's the money? Take it out!"

"Haha, what money? Why can't I understand what you are talking about?"

Lance laughed, turned around and wanted to leave, but Adele's sneer came from behind:

"If you receive money but don't accomplish anything, you will be hunted down."

"I heard that the most cruel punishment for the Amastasha family to deal with their enemies is to find ten female orcs weighing [-] kilograms and chain them for thirty days and nights."

"But if the money comes into my hands, it's like leaving the right hand behind the left hand."

"Let me solve the trouble, and I won't come looking for you."

"Haha, hahahaha, I just picked up a gold coin card. I will hand it over to our beautiful, intelligent, gentle and kind-hearted Sheriff, Lord Adele!"

After handing the gold coin card to Adele, Lance immediately rubbed the soles of his feet.

Glancing at the numbers on the gold coin card, Adele's eyes widened in shock.

"20 gold coins! Are they crazy! Who came up with this? They are as stupid as pigs!"
