You want to force me to be the devil, right?

Chapter 98 Tisia, you are as smart and capable as your mother!
"The little boy who can cast fireballs..."

Shane shrugged helplessly, but felt relieved in his heart.

Judging from the Queen's evaluation of him, the other party was unaware of his relationship with Lady White Rose.

It was only because of his battle with Orethiya that he attracted the attention of the Queen.

His super-large fireball technique made the queen very happy?
That's about it...

"No matter what, let's build the landmark first. As for this queen..."

Shane narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of vigilance flashing in his eyes.

He didn't dare to accept the olive branch thrown by the queen.

Especially the word "plaything". He is the Demon King. How could he become the plaything of a traitorous queen with demon blood?
It’s against Tiangang!
Shane immediately rushed to the Youlan Mine.

When we arrived at our destination, we saw only a small number of miners working there.

Moreover, they only dared to stay outside the Youlan Mine and did not dare to enter the interior.

"Sir, what can I do for you?"

A miner saw Shane coming and asked Shane in a hoarse voice.

He was very polite and obviously recognized the Shenghua Magic Academy uniform that Shane was wearing.

"Excuse me, where is the captain of your mining team?"

Shane asked the other party.

"I'm the captain here, my name is Mike," the middle-aged man said. He took out his water bottle, wanting to moisten his dry throat, but found it was empty. He had no choice but to put it back and continued, "Do you want to buy ore? Or do you want something else?"

"I want to know about the situation at the Youlan Mine." Shane handed over a bottle of diluted water of desire.

"What is this? A new type of holy water!?"

Mike looked surprised when he saw the drink Shane handed him.

"You know this?"

Shane was also a little surprised. His new holy water was selling well in the Youlan Mine?

"Of course! I saw the advertisement in the White Rose store when I returned to the royal city," Mike said with a smile. "I heard it's incredibly effective, allowing us to work for 24 hours straight without feeling tired!"

"But it's too expensive. Five silver coins a bottle is almost as much as a miner's wages for several days."

"Are you really willing to send me?"

Mike was a little hesitant to take the bottle of new holy water from Shane.

This is too precious for him.

"I'll give it to you. I have plenty."

Shane replied nonchalantly.

"Thank you! Thank you so much! Generous wizard!"

Mike took the bottle of new holy water and carefully put it into the package.

Then, he introduced to Shane, "The Youlan Mine is rich in magic crystals. As the raw material for making magic devices, this material is very valuable. If the miners can bring out a piece of magic crystal, they can get an extra reward of one gold coin!"

"But although the mine is vast, the tunnels are narrow and fragile. If you're not careful, it could cause a landslide."

"Since the founding of the Dawn Empire, the number of miners killed in the record alone has reached hundreds."

"Also, magic crystals are difficult to mine."

"Also, recently, for some unknown reason, the appearance of monsters and undead has become increasingly frequent in the Youlan Mine."

"Nowadays, only a few mining teams dare to enter the deep mines. We are the only ones still relying on a few relatively safe mine tunnels to barely maintain ore mining. Other mining teams have long since evacuated and moved to other mines."

"I see……"

After learning about the current situation of the Youlan Mine, Xia En looked thoughtful.

Then he asked Mike about the application process for mining qualifications and how many mining teams there were near the mine.

If you want to take over the entire mine, you naturally have to acquire the qualifications of the existing mining team.

Four mining teams, about sixty people...

After Shane recorded the detailed data, he prepared to return to the Dawn Empire.

"That, sir!"

Mike suddenly asked Shane, "Excuse me, do you want to rent out the entire Youlan Mine?"

"Ah."

Shane nodded and asked, "Is there something wrong?" Mike quickly explained, "Well... among us miners, there has always been a legend about the Youlan Mine, and I thought I should tell you about it."

"You said."

"Rumor has it that a giant skeleton dragon sleeps in the deepest part of the Orchid Mine!"

"It is this that attracts and creates monsters and the undead."

"On every full-moon night, the roar of a giant dragon can be heard from within the mine! Echoing throughout the entire mine!"

"real or fake?"

Shane was a little surprised when he heard this.

This was the first time he heard this rumor!
But if there really is a skeleton dragon in the Youlan Mine, it will definitely attract the attention of the royal family of the Dawn Empire, right?

But there is no news about this...

"Really! I really heard the roar of a dragon! I swear to God!" Mike said seriously.

"So, if you want to take over this mine, you must think carefully!"

"Okay, I understand." Shane nodded.

Although I don’t know whether the legend of the skeleton dragon is true or not, it’s not a bad thing to be vigilant.

It was not until late at night that Shane returned to Tisia's manor.

Just as he was about to go back to his room to rest, he suddenly found that Tisia was waiting in his room.

"What are you doing in my room?" Shane asked confused.

"I have something to ask you."

Tisia folded her arms and said to Shane, "Olesya came to the academy looking for you. I'm afraid she doesn't want to let you go."

"She came to the academy to see me again?"

Upon hearing this, Xia En frowned slightly.

"Although I don't know her real reason for looking for you, you'd better be careful recently." Tisia analyzed carefully, "As a knight of the Yerman family, she wants to eliminate you with just one sword."

"So, you should stay in the manor recently."

"Stay here, she can't do anything to you."

"But I still have a lot of things to deal with." Shane shrugged.

The revival of the demon clan is urgent, how can we stop!
"What are you going to do? Can't I help you with it?" Tisia asked curiously.

"I want to take over the Youlan Mine." Shane replied.

"Take over the Youlan Mine?" Tisia was extremely confused by Shane's answer.

He asked, "I heard that the mine's production has always been low, and it often suffers from landslides and monster harassment. Why did you think of taking over the Youlan Mine?"

"Don't worry about it. I'm just telling you that you can make a fortune!" Shane said mysteriously to Tisia.

His words instantly made Tisia's eyes sparkle.

"Really?"

"Absolutely true! And I've already found out the basic information about the mine. This is a sure win! I'm telling you..." Shane explained the mine's situation to Ticia.

"..."

Tisia's silver-gray eyes moved as she wondered whether this deal would pay off.

After careful consideration, she said to Shane, "I will buy the mine for you in the name of the White Rose Chamber of Commerce. Is that okay?"

"no!"

Shane shook his head.

Although the White Rose Chamber of Commerce nominally belongs to Madam White Rose, it still has the Queen as its steward.

Also, many forces are eyeing the White Rose Chamber of Commerce, so this matter must be handled with caution.

"Isn't this okay?"

"Of course not. I must be the owner of the mine. However, I can give you 30% of the profits."

"..."

Tisia glanced coldly at Shane.

But she didn't doubt Shane's judgment. Instead, she said, "I'll have someone take care of it tomorrow. You just stay in the manor and don't go anywhere!"
