The Witcher: Elemental Lords
#753 - Two months later
Yama had always had a problem with Dore, harboring ill feelings from the start. Dore didn't even bother to personally accompany them, and they didn't get any kickbacks. After working hard for days, not a single word of appreciation was offered.
Upon hearing this, Yama immediately volunteered, "I'll write it."
Aston wanted to say something, but in the end, he said nothing. If Yama had complaints, let him vent.
A squad of soldiers approached through the city. The leader, none other than Ave, smiled enthusiastically at Aston, "You've all worked hard. The City Lord requests your presence."
Miles Taylor and the others exchanged glances with Ave, their hearts slightly tightening as they nodded in agreement.
They knew Ave's identity. He was an important figure in the Rhine family's military department, destined for a high position in the future. Moreover, due to his relationship as the legendary Dore's girlfriend, he would at least be the number three figure here in the future.
Miles Taylor smiled and said, "Minister Ave, you've also worked hard. We've just returned. May we freshen up before meeting the City Lord?"
Ave nodded, speaking concisely and efficiently, "Please do. All toiletries have been prepared. Please don't keep Dore waiting too long; he's been very busy these past few days, and it wasn't easy for him to free up some time."
Miles Taylor nodded, but inwardly he didn't take it seriously.
Back at the City Lord's mansion, after washing up, Miles Taylor and the others entered the main building and went to the top floor.
Dore was alone inside, with two slaves symbolically guarding the entrance.
…
Dore looked up and saw the three of them, thinking to himself that they still hadn't taken his words to heart, dawdling until now.
He didn't get angry but instead smiled and said, "Please, take a seat, all three of you. You've worked hard."
He called out, asking for drinks to be brought in – the kind that restores energy.
After that, he looked at Miles Taylor and slowly said, "Manager, I have limited time, so I'll get straight to the point. After your report is written, I need to review it. Furthermore, it will be directly transmitted back to the capital through the Wizard's Tower. His Highness the Third Prince has already settled other matters, and now he's waiting for your report."
Miles Taylor was stunned, and Aston and Yama next to him were also taken aback.
At this moment, a slave came in and served tea to the three of them.
Miles Taylor was somewhat uncertain of the direction. Directly transmitting it back would ruin their plan to delay, wouldn't it?
And Yama next to him was even more worried. He originally wanted to write some unfavorable words about this place, so that the capital would ponder over it. But now… if he was really seen by the other party, he wouldn't have a way out. A trace of cold sweat unconsciously flowed from his forehead.
He looked at the table next to him, picked up the drink, and took a big gulp, his expression slightly relaxing.
Fortunately, he hadn't written it yet.
Miles Taylor had already figured it out at this time, "So urgent?"
Dore wasn't surprised by the three people's performance. These three people all wanted to delay, coming here every day to wander around, just not doing their jobs properly. That Yama was even more malicious, arranging him several times.
He said expressionlessly, "Yes, so please hurry."
With a wave of his hand, three rings were thrown out, casually landing on the table next to the three people.
"This is your compensation for your hard work. I want to get the results within three days."
His tone was very stiff, with an air of command.
Miles Taylor felt uncomfortable in his heart. He was just about to speak when he saw Dore's eyes.
What kind of eyes were those? Like a whirlpool, as if his spirit could be completely sucked into it. He used a lot of strength to break free. He turned his head and looked at the other two, not daring to look again, sweat streaming down his forehead.
He knew that the other party was already very dissatisfied with their delaying tactics.
He could only force a smile and say, "I will as soon as possible."
He grabbed the ring on the table and immediately got up, bidding farewell to Dore. There was no point in staying any longer. He took the benefits and left quickly.
Dore didn't get up either, watching the three people leave in a mess.
If he didn't discipline these three old foxes, they would think that he really didn't care whether the city was built successfully. If they really couldn't produce it within three days, the several large stone pillars that Dore was building at the city gate would be their future habitat for the next five days.
Don't think that he wouldn't dare to take action just because they were high-ranking officials in the capital.
The three walked out of the City Lord's mansion gate. Yama was indignant and was about to say something when he was stopped by Aston next to him.
Aston shook his head at Yama, then gestured around.
Yama immediately shut his mouth, looking around warily.
This was the frontier, not the capital where he could throw his weight around. Here, Dore was the sky and the earth. He had felt this very strongly recently.
Dore's will permeated every street and alley here, and no one could disobey it.
Walking out of the City Lord's mansion and arriving at the office area behind, Miles Taylor casually threw out a button and placed it on the table, circles of energy ripples spreading out.
Only then did the three of them breathe a sigh of relief. This button was used for the first time, and now it seemed that it was a little late.
Miles Taylor glanced at Yama expressionlessly and said, "Since you want to write it, then you write it. Dore is in a hurry, so you have to finish it within three days."
Yama looked at Miles Taylor and said helplessly, "I'll write it if I write it. I just want to see what benefits this guy gave us."
He picked up the ring and took a look.
The latest novels are at Six Nine Book Bar!
This one glance immediately silenced him. There were many things inside, very generous, and most importantly, there were many potions.
He glanced at the potions, and they were all high-level potions, with very high purity.
He took a breath and said, "I will write it seriously."
At this time, the other two had also finished looking at the things and nodded in agreement.
"We've delayed as much as we should, and we've done what we should do. Let's do some serious business. This Dore is a Level 6 Wizard, who knows when he will enter Level 7. Level 7 is not low in the capital, a giant figure, we can't be careless."
Miles Taylor thought to himself, the other party was too young. Such a young Level 6, it was impossible not to enter Level 7 in the future.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
A guard came in and said, "Master Miles Taylor, someone claiming to be from the Alexander family is requesting to see you. He says his name is Maverick."
Miles Taylor's pupils suddenly shrank.
…
Dore was writing a document when he suddenly looked up, looking towards the back of the City Lord's mansion.
These damned people from the Alexander family, did they really think he had no temper?
That person went to see Miles Taylor, naturally there was nothing good!
Dore thought for a while and still held back, suppressing his mood. He gave Miles Taylor three days, and if Miles Taylor didn't complete the report in three days, he would really have to do something.
He lowered his head and continued writing.
He didn't write for long before raising his head and drying the paper in his hand.
"Someone."
Someone came in with hurried footsteps from the door.
"Take this, copy it once, and post it at the city gate in the form of a big-character poster. Also, have people quickly send this report to the intersections of various roads and post it."
That person's name was Eddie. He glanced at it at this time, then nodded, but his heart was extremely shocked.
The offensive of money was indeed incomparably powerful. The passage would be open in twenty days, and now it was only May. Even if the passage was open in June, two months to open the passage, it was really too exaggerated.
