Skretil's Ignorance Walker

Chapter 18 Agreement

"You guy."

Seeing the way Lu Ren's eyes lit up when she heard all the women, Lina felt speechless for a while, so she flicked Lu Ren's forehead with her right hand to wake her up.

"Oooh, what are you doing, ouch."

Lu Ren covered his forehead with a look of pain, but Lina didn't accept this.

"After you leave, will you come back?"

Rubbing his somewhat red and swollen forehead, Lu Ren felt that Lina's mood was a little heavy now.

"Maybe... right? After all, I'm still homeless now. Maybe I will come back here one day after I finish my trip."

"Really? I will wait for you here with Lord Verdi and the others. To be honest, I don't like dealing with those nobles. I feel very relaxed when I am with you."

After saying that, Lina turned around and leaned on the railing. She raised her head and didn't know what she was thinking about.

"My father has taught me bows and arrows and noble etiquette since I was a child. The former is to pass on the family skills, and the latter is to enable me to marry a suitable noble. So I always hated these when I was a child. After graduating from the Magic Academy, I I became an adventurer, and I don’t use a bow and arrow. Every time my father asked me to attend a banquet or propose an engagement with someone, I would always hide in the wild by myself in the name of doing a mission.”

"I can probably imagine that your father should be very happy when you proposed to sign a marriage contract with Verdi."

Lu Ren also came to Lina's side, leaning against the railing with her, looking up at the bright moon in the sky, although she couldn't see it.

"Indeed, at that time, his face was almost crooked with laughter. Now I understand him a little bit. Although he always demands what my brothers and sisters do because of his noble responsibilities, my current life depends entirely on it. He and I were born into a noble family, so it is impossible for me to completely abandon my status as a noble."

After saying that, Lina's tone dropped again, she stretched and then continued to speak.

"Did you know that our family was not actually the Count of Valluca at the beginning? At that time, my family was just a small noble under the Duke of Valluca. Later, the rebellion of the Duke of Valluca was put down, and my family was dismissed because of its merits in suppressing the rebellion. The royal family granted the territory of Valuca and the title of count, and the title of Duke of Valuca and the territory under its jurisdiction were taken into the hands of the royal family, so my family became the count of Valuca border directly under the royal family."

"Ah."

"Be sure to come back when you are done traveling. I will wait for you here."

"Well, don't forget to let me see your and Wildy's child then."

"You! What nonsense are you talking about!"

Lina blushed immediately. For people in this world, they still have too little experience in these aspects.

Lu Ren did have a lot of experience, although it was only on paper and had never been put into practice.

"Don't talk about me first, but you. Don't forget to bring me some more cute little girls when the time comes."

"what?"

"Ah, what? I believe that with your ability, you can get as many as you want, so don't forget to bring them back to me when the time comes."

Lu Ren fell silent when Lina said, "Yes, this is a different world. Verdi has several fiancées, so can I..."

"Ahem, let's talk about the rest later. You should hurry up and get married to Verdi."

The two girls were in this corner where no one cared, talking and laughing, enjoying their own time until the end of the banquet...

The next day, Lu Ren, who was sleeping soundly in his room, was picked up again and forced to change clothes and wash himself before throwing him into the carriage.

"Uuuuuuuuah, what time is it? Where are we going?"

"It's almost eleven o'clock. Have you forgotten that His Majesty will personally commend you today?"

Lu Ren was leaning against Lina who was not yet awake, and Lina shook Lu Ren's little head vigorously to wake her up. I'm going to meet the king later, but I can't go like this.

After about ten minutes, the group arrived at the entrance of the palace. Verdi, Marin, Lina and Lu Ren got off the car one after another, and were led by a maid to the king's study, where the king and his advisers usually stayed. office.

As soon as he opened the door, Lu Ren saw the king sitting in his luxurious chair, with various documents placed on the table in front of him, and two middle-aged men standing beside him.

Verdi and his party saluted the king as soon as they entered the door, and Lu Ren also imitated Verdi in a decent manner.

"You don't have to be polite, sir. Today is mainly to reward Lu Renqing. It should have been publicly commended in the main hall, but since Lu Renqing is inconvenient, let's do it in this small study of my king."

Although he said it was small, Lu Ren could sense that the study room was very large, enough to accommodate more than a hundred people.

At the king's signal, everyone came and sat down on the sofa nearby. Just when Lu Ren was about to sit down, he was stopped by Lina.

"Stop sitting there and get ready for the award ceremony."

Lina pulled Lu Ren and whispered. Lu Ren looked along where Lina pointed and saw the king sitting on a special throne not far in front of her.

After saying "Oh," Lu Ren came to the king and knelt down on one knee.

The king sat in front of him, a magnificent sword standing in his hand.

"Lu Renqing, you rescued the guardian of our country at a critical moment and resolved a crisis that could destroy the world. With this supreme achievement, what do you desire?"

The king asked, but this time it stumped Lu Ren. If you want to give me anything, just don't give it to me. If you ask me what I want, I won't get it.

"Well, I'm broke and homeless..."

"I will give you ten thousand gold coins and a manor at the same time."

"I……"

"How about I grant you the title of Chief Magister of the Palace?"

"Ah, that's not necessary. I'm used to being lazy and can't adapt to life in the palace."

Facing Lu Ren's words, the king, who had received Verdi's report, was already prepared. Since he didn't want to stay in the palace, he would take a step back.

"In that case, how about I make a promise?"

"Promise?"

"If you want to travel around the world, I will contact the Adventurer's Guild in the Royal Capital to issue you an A-level adventurer certificate, and I will also give you a sum of money every month."

After hearing the king's words, Lu Ren immediately looked at Lina behind him, but felt that Lina shook her head desperately to express that she knew nothing. Then why did Lu Ren only tell Lina that he was leaving Frannia, and the king knew about it the next day?

"What's the price?"

"In return, we will install positioning and fixed-point teleportation magic on your adventurer certificate. When the kingdom is in irresistible danger, you must unconditionally assist our country."

"You won't call me here just because of a trivial matter, will you?"

"I promise you not. I will only call you back when you encounter a crisis that the kingdom is powerless to do. It is a bit like the guardian of the kingdom like Lord Verdi."

Lu Ren thought for a while, and she thought this might not be bad. She promised Lina that she would return here one day. If this place had been destroyed by then, it would be meaningless, and she would give it to herself every month. By giving money, as long as nothing happens to the kingdom, wouldn't it be equivalent to prostitution for free?

Although it was possible that the other party was making a fuss in some places, Lu Ren's little head thought for a while and couldn't figure out what could go wrong, so she accepted the king's proposal. After a brief ceremony, Lu Ren and Lina He left the king's study and followed a waiter to collect his reward, while Wildy and Marlene stayed in the king's study not knowing what to do.

"It's great. You don't have to do anything and you can still get paid."

"Why are you envious?"

The two did not forget to bicker with each other on the road, which has become a proof of their friendship.

After a while, the waiter led the two people to a room. After entering the room, the waiter whispered to the person sitting in the room for a while, and then invited the two of them to come to the person.

"Ok?"

The man gave Lu Ren a card and a bunch of keys, and told her that the card contained 100 million magic crystals, the location of the manor, and the lock corresponding to each key.

"Didn't you say ten thousand gold coins?"

The opposite person was holding a small card that contained 100 million magic crystals, similar to a bank card. Lu Ren asked questions.

"Currently, the kingdom uses a universal currency. One gold coin is equal to one hundred silver coins, one silver coin is equal to one hundred copper coins, and one copper coin is equal to one magic crystal. Gold coins cannot be stored in magic crystal cards, which is more inconvenient, so I will give you the same magic crystal. , you can swipe your card everywhere.”

Lina explained to Lu Ren that although she didn't know when the common currency on the mainland, magic crystals and magic crystal cards became popular, almost everyone is now using this system.

"If you need it, I can exchange it for gold coins for you."

"Forget it, that's enough."

After receiving the reward, Lu Ren and Lina immediately left the palace and took a car to Lu Ren's manor. Lu Ren was very excited along the way because he finally had a property of his own.

With her heart full of joy, she couldn't wait to go quickly...
