"You're very perceptive. I do have something I'd like to ask you to do."
Rajud chuckled.
If he hadn't specifically wanted to find Luze, he wouldn't have needed to come all the way to wait at the bell-ringer Cano's hut.
"Let's get to know each other again."
The old man stood up from his chair and extended a hand to Luze. "Richard Gri, member of the School of Life, councilor of fate. Sequence 4 Doom Mage."
Because Luze is already a demigod, Rijold is treating him as an equal.
"Alexander Gascoigne."
Lu Zeshen shook his hand lightly, then quickly released it. "A Knight of Sequence 4."
"It really is a demigod from the Mystic Path."
"To be able to resist the influence of the true creator and maintain such rationality to the level of a demigod... you must have gone through a lot of hardship," Rijald said with a hint of surprise.
".fine."
Lu Ze chuckled lightly, offering little explanation, "Sir, what exactly is it you want to say? You'd better tell me quickly."
He didn't plan to stay on Oravi Island for long. Anderson's matter was resolved, and he was now preparing to cooperate with Klein to hunt down "General Disease." He didn't have time to waste on a mysterious old man.
"My request is related to what Darkwell reported."
"I need your help to rescue him and the die he's carrying from the governor's mansion," Rajud said calmly.
Bayam?
Luze pondered for a moment. That was the capital of the Rothschild Islands, and the largest storm church in the surrounding waters was located there. Inside was a Sequence 3 "Sea King," Arne Cortman! "Sorry, that's too dangerous."
Lu Ze immediately shook his head, indicating his refusal. "Besides, I have other things to do and can't spare the time."
There are so many powerful figures in the Life School, why insist on having me handle their problems? That "Sea King" is a Sequence 3, and besides, this is the sea, his home turf. No matter how I look at it, I'm no match for him.
"Don't rush to refuse."
Rachaud chuckled. "I see a tributary of fate; you'll likely make a trip to Bayam later."
"So, my request is this: you don't need to actively rescue Roy King. However, if you happen to be attacking the Governor's Mansion in Bayam for other reasons, I hope you will also help out and take Roy King and that die with you."
"I'm willing to pay in advance for this."
It's that kind of talk again... I might go to Bayam and even attack the governor's mansion?
That possibility is too low, isn't it?
Lu Ze raised an eyebrow, suppressing the urge to question him, and asked, "And then what? If I hadn't attacked the Governor's Mansion, would I have needed to go out of my way to rescue Roy King?"
"That means the wheel of fate has turned once again," Rajud said calmly. "In that case, we will naturally choose other methods, and you won't need to return the reward to us."
"You can start thinking about payment now. Relieving the misfortune is a bonus, and you don't have to pay any fees whether you agree to the commission or not," said Congressman Rejode, ending the topic and looking directly at Luze, seemingly waiting for Luze's answer.
You get paid without doing anything? Is there really such a good thing? But why does it feel a little strange...?
Lu Ze gave the other person a deep look.
Stay calm. When such inexplicable good things happen, be vigilant and think about whether there might be a trap.
He pondered for a moment, then looked up at the other person.
"Could you give me some time to think about it?"
"sure."
Rachaud smiled and nodded. "If you're going to accept, please come here before the end of tomorrow. I'll wait until then."
In other words, it's a one-time offer.
Lu Ze nodded. "I understand."
After greeting the other person, he got up and left the cramped little room, going outside.
He saw Anderson awkwardly sitting with the gloomy-faced bell ringer in the open space in front of the church, as if something unpleasant had happened. Upon seeing him come out, Anderson quickly got up and ran to him.
"I never imagined that the Church of the Earth Mother's alchemical products included androids!"
He lowered his voice.
Lu Ze immediately understood what Anderson meant.
Oh, so the bell-ringer, Cano, is a product of alchemy. No wonder his body gave me the illusion of being pieced together...
However, it's quite a mixed bag that a product of the Church of the Earth Mother has incorporated the School of Life and is ringing bells in the Church of Storms.
Lu Ze found it somewhat amusing; Anderson had probably said something annoying again, making the other person unhappy.
Even though the bad luck has been averted, why does it feel like he's still constantly courting death?
The two left the church area. Anderson, finally free from his misfortune, was overjoyed and shook off the captain to find his own fun, leaving Luzer alone to explore the island of Oravi.
The agreed departure time with the sailors was early the day after tomorrow. Before that, Lu Ze planned to find a hotel to rest.
The hotel's exterior walls were plastered with wanted posters from pirates. He glanced at them and saw his own poster right next to that of the Undead King, Agarito, whose bounty had risen to 15 pounds.
Not bad, it's increased by 3 pounds...
Lu Ze muttered to himself, thinking about the bounty on "The Slaughter" Gilchrist that he hadn't been able to redeem, and booked a room at the front desk.
Meow~
Upon entering, he found the window open from the outside, and Luna was perched on the table, meowing sweetly at him. It seemed the black cat had divined its room number and entered ahead of time.
Lu Ze walked over and was about to pat its head when he suddenly noticed that it was holding an envelope in its mouth.
"You came to deliver this to me?"
Lu Ze picked up the letter, saw the signature on it, and couldn't help but feel a little pleased.
It's a reply from the mysterious queen!
He quickly tore open the envelope, unfolded the letter, and read its contents. On the letter, the Queen had written in beautiful handwriting:
"1. Speaking of a space more abstract and conceptual than the spirit world, it should be the astral realm. It is a world where concepts and symbols converge, and it is said that the realm of the gods is located there. In addition, the astral realm may be related to the real starry sky."
"2. As far as I know, no. If you don't want to contract with spirit beings, I can send you an invisible servant, which can also act as a messenger."
"3. I do have quite a collection, but your requirements are too broad. We can discuss this in person later."
4. Beware of the King of Black Seats.
99
Thanks for reminding me, I will.
Upon reading the last sentence of the letter, Lu Ze said silently.
He read the letter again and became somewhat interested in the "astral plane" mentioned in the first point.
