I think you can't even imagine the happiness of a warlock.

The reason why Haiou Pavilion is called Haiou Pavilion is actually because it was a restaurant before it was acquired by the president of the guild.

After the official acquisition by Master Langton, only the first and second floors were completely transformed into a guild, and most of the third floor was still an open-air restaurant facing the Carlos Strait.

Occasionally, this official mage will invite some friends to hold banquets here. It is said that even the flower lady is full of praise for the scenery and dishes here.

However, when Chen Zhou followed Stella to the third floor, he had no intention of visiting the scenery and only focused on observing and guarding against the guild president.

As a formal mage, Langton did not wear robes like other colleagues to facilitate access to scrolls and spell-casting materials. Instead, he looked more like an elegant and noble old gentleman... In fact, the other party did have a knighthood.

Most formal spellcasters who are willing to be loyal to the country can obtain corresponding status, but they also need to fulfill the obligations of nobility while enjoying power.

For example, six nights ago, the reason Langton did not appear in the guild was because he was invited by the Flower Lady to deal with the fish-man ghosts all over the city.

Now this gentleman-like old man is looking at the warlock sitting opposite in a friendly manner, and he doesn't know what kind of plan he has in his heart.

Anyway, according to the poet Lightning and the priest Dara, a powerful mage must be an old silver coin and must be guarded against.

"Tom, you have been working in the guild for more than a month. Have you gotten used to the life here?"

While the waiter was serving aperitifs and salads, Langton cared like a kind elder: "I heard that after you usually help charge magic items, you just sit in the corner all day. Do you think it's okay? Is boring?"

"Fortunately, there are books to read in the guild, so it's not that boring."

It would be better to say that Chen Zhou really likes fishing and reading. How can he still work if he doesn't fish during working hours?

"Amazing, you are probably the most eager to learn orc and warlock I have ever met."

The old gentleman shook his wine glass with emotion in his heart.

When he was young, he also joined an adventure team during his apprenticeship and traveled around. He saw many of his own race and similar species on the prairie and in battles.

Most of the orcs or warlocks were unreasonable people, but they were all good at fighting, which made him almost die several times.

But the orc warlock in front of him, who supposedly combined the shortcomings of both sides, was actually exceptionally rational and stable.

Although he didn’t show any due etiquette, whether on purpose or because he didn’t understand, judging from Tom’s demeanor and behavior, he was even more aristocratic than himself, a nobleman who had become a monk...

It means that you are an honest person, Chen Zhou translated in his heart, easy to predict and guide, and can be used and manipulated at will.

"I just prefer a leisurely life."

Ignoring Langton's temptation, Chen Zhou ate in silence. Salad was probably one of the foods he was more accustomed to in this world.

As for wine, I didn’t drink it. It didn’t feel as good as happy water.

Seeing the other party silently showing off his rice, the president clapped his hands and ordered the waiter to serve one special dish after another.

Fanhua Port is the most prosperous port in Carlos, and the Seagull Pavilion on the sea cliff is adjacent to the sea.

The most famous dishes here are undoubtedly the wide variety of fresh and plump aquatic products.

Of course Chen Zhou would not refuse anyone who came, but he just hoped that he would not gout if he stayed here for a long time.

It's a pity that President Langton didn't call him here just to see him show off his food.

Obviously they are not from the same country, but this world seems to have the habit of communicating at the dinner table.

"Haha, I think it's just that the tasks in the guild are basically no challenge to you.

"Actually, I have a rather special task here. Do you think you can take the time to try it?"

While secretly thinking in his heart, this kind of routine is really unoriginal, and Chen Zhou was about to reject it immediately.

However, the old mage, who saw the rejection in the other person's eyes, stretched out his hand to signal the other person not to refuse.

"The reward is very high, the advance payment alone is three hundred."

"..."

I have to admit that Chen Zhou was indeed a little tempted.

"But I refuse, President."

Chen Zhou still had some idea of ​​how dangerous a mission with a deposit of 300 gold coins must be: "First, I am only a warlock hired by the guild, and my job only includes charging adventurers' magic items.

“Second, strictly speaking, I am not a registered adventurer and cannot accept complex tasks other than running errands.

"Third, I'm not interested in money. I've never touched money before at home."

After all, most of them are paid electronically.

The old mage was ungentlemanly stunned for a moment... Is this what a warlock can say?

You are not a warlock! Are you an Arcanist?

"Ahem, don't refuse in a hurry, it doesn't hurt to listen."

"In fact, what I want to ask you to do is really just a simple errand task."

While telling Chen Zhou not to worry, President Langton explained the details of the mission.

After the last fish-man night, many changes have taken place in Blossom Port.

So the flower lady he was loyal to encountered a lot of trouble during this period.

The first thing to make clear is that nobles have an obligation to keep the lands granted to them by the kingdom from threats.

Ms. Flowers, who suffered heavy losses in the Night of the Murlocs, was naturally criticized by many hostile nobles, and even her own family and the Dephis family expressed dissatisfaction.

The barons whose prestige has plummeted have reduced their dominance over the territory. As a result, the barons in several territories near Fanhua Port are likely to have some special thoughts...

"You mean other barons will attack Flower Port? That's not true. Aren't you all from the same country?"

Chen Zhou really didn't know much about the situation here. Although they were both liberal arts majors, his major didn't involve much history.

It's like the mayor and the mayor of a province are going to attack each other?

"It's normal for you to be new to human society and not understand this." President Langton sighed helplessly.

Chen Zhou felt that he was offended.

Not noticing the inner dissatisfaction of the other party, Langton just explained: "The baron is only loyal to the earl who canonized himself, and the earl is only loyal to the king who canonized him. This means that conflicts between barons in the same earldom may also occur. Dissension.”

No, it would be simple if it were just a dispute.

The problem is that there is a high probability that this kind of dispute will escalate to the point where each other declares war and a war breaks out.

Chen Zhou was puzzled: "I can't figure it out."

"Oh, there's nothing to say about this kind of thing."

President Langton shook his head and finally got to the point: "You just need to run an errand and visit the nearby baronies to investigate whether they have clear intentions and see if they have any plans to start a war. "

For this reason, President Langton and the people behind him were willing to pay three hundred gold coins as an advance payment, which was the price of three tenths of a baron's fiancé... Chen Zhou wondered whether this was too high.

"It's not high, that's the price for our spell casters. But if you feel uneasy with it, you can also do a little extra destruction work..."

Let the other barons be busy and there will be no time to find trouble for Fanhua Port!
