However, no matter what happens in the process, as long as he is willing, that's fine. Roswaal is just someone who helps with the work. As long as the work is done, that's fine. If he doesn't do it... Roswaal thinks that even he will suffer a terrible fate.
Roswaal continued with a smile, "If Chu Xing thinks that way, that would be best. A month from now, I'd like to take that young girl to the capital to confirm her status as one of the heirs. This process might take quite a while. Will you be coming with me then?"
"Of course we should go together! I want to witness the coronation ceremony of the girl I've raised since she was a child, standing above millions of people in this country!" Chu Xing smiled with relief. At this moment, the pain on his face was gone, and instead, when he thought of Emilia, there was a gentle and doting expression on his face!
Although it was heartbreaking to let his daughter leave his side, it was also an opportunity for her. Chu Xing felt that he shouldn't keep Emilia tied to him like this for the rest of her life!
Of course, if they don't want to, it's not easy to get them to agree! Without Emilia in the capital, how can Subaru see Emilia?
"... "
Chu Xing's eyes flashed with murderous intent as he thought of this. He was not going to give away the daughter he had raised with such care. He could easily find a whole bunch of useless otaku!
Furthermore, Chu Xing firmly believed in keeping the good stuff within the family. If the time was right, wouldn't it be better for him to take it all? Speaking of which, when he sought out Emilia, it was entirely out of the idea of finding a child bride! Just like Rem and Ram, on the surface, she was supposed to be a little sister, but in reality... let alone the bed sheets, she was rolled around in the living room, kitchen, and bathroom countless times!
Sigh, young people these days really know how to have fun.
###186. An Encounter###
Chu Xing had a very pleasant time after that!
During the day, he takes three girls to wander around the surrounding small towns, and every now and then at noon he takes Rem and Ram to... [the rest of the text is incomplete and cannot be translated.]
In the evening, they naturally wouldn't be idle either. With Rem and Ram, those two adorable and nagging little devils, gone, there was still Beatrice to look after!
A few days of happy life also taught Chu Xing what it meant to be revelry every night like a wedding night!
Ah, isn't this just what life is all about?
But happy days always pass by too quickly; it seems like just yesterday that a month was over!
It's that strange sense of déjà vu again!
It's true that a month has passed, but looking back, it feels like the month hasn't even passed. This month, or even a lifetime, has just passed in the blink of an eye!
On the last day of this month, Chu Xing would sneak over to Beatrice's place at night to sleep with the girl and do some inappropriate things together. Eventually, he couldn't hide it any longer, and the two girls, Rem and Ram, who had actually known something all along, found out!
First and foremost, of course, is the smell on your body!
Beatrice, being such a petite and delicate girl, would naturally smell wonderful! So, how could Chu Xing not pick up some of Beatrice's scent from spending all night with her?
The physical abilities of the Ghost Clan are far superior to those of the normal, so this scent naturally cannot be hidden from them. However, at first they were a little confused as to why Chu Xing would go to find the little girl behind their backs, and why their dear brother seemed to go back to his room to sleep obediently every night.
So the two girls never understood each other and never broke through the veil between them until the last day when Beatrice suddenly decided to eat outside the hall from now on and officially appeared in front of Rem and Ram!
The two women had known Beatrice for a long time, but they had never had a deep conversation. Besides, Beatrice spent most of her time in the library, where there was always a smell of rotting books. Beatrice might smell nice, but the two women couldn't tell.
But now, having left that environment, Remram touched Beatrice while doing her daily chores! At a distance of less than a meter, she smelled a fragrance that was both strange and familiar!
Oh ho, those who know, know!
That very night, Rem and Ram had a very frank discussion about this topic with Chu Xing... In short, Chu Xing went through a lot that night, but thankfully, it ended peacefully, and he managed to seduce the two oni girls!
After that night, Chu Xing, with two women on either side of him, got up early from the bed where he had slept with the twin sisters. He said a final goodbye to Beatrice and then embarked on his journey back to the capital.
Originally, Roswaal was supposed to accompany them, but the border lord seemed to have encountered some trouble and couldn't go with them. He could only let Chu Xing and the others go first, and then catch up after he resolved his matter!
Oh, that's wonderful! Chu Xing has no interest in sitting in a carriage with Roswaal for a long time!
The journey was relatively smooth until, midway through, Chu Xing encountered... someone completely unexpected...
"Hey!"
Rem stared at the long caravan in front of her, her eyes widening in surprise. "Whose caravan is that? It's so impressive! Nearly 200 carriages, and there are even a thousand mercenaries. They could protect an entire city with that kind of strength."
"Yes!"
Ram and Emilia nodded in agreement. They had established many merchant guilds along the way, but had never seen anything like it. Such a large and impressive procession! To those in the know, it meant a powerful and wealthy family; to those who didn't, it looked like an entire clan migrating!
"This is Karalaki!"
The young girl who was driving the carriage turned around and smiled at the group, saying, "That's Lugnica's largest merchant guild right now! Or rather, it's number one among the more than ten surrounding countries! Every corner of this continent is involved in their trade! They're one of the three giant merchant guilds standing at the pinnacle of the economy!"
The resources, connections, and money they control are enough to easily destroy a country. If an economic attack were used against a nation, aside from the two or three major economic powers in the east, I think very few countries could withstand it!
This delivery wasn't your average delivery. Karalaki has made over 20 such deliveries in the past three days. Experts analyze that the reason is likely that their guild leader is attending the royal succession conference, so they've stockpiled a massive amount of resources in the capital to wage a propaganda war.
Chu Xing's eyes still held a hint of emotion when he heard the first part of the sentence, but when he heard the last sentence, he couldn't help but twitch his lips and said, "Is this what a businessman is like? I'm impressed."
Then, Chu Xing's eyes lit up with anticipation. The girl he had casually abandoned back then, perhaps because of his appearance, had become an absolute giant in this world, whether big or small, with even greater power in her hands.
"Is this child someone I raised myself? As expected of the master, he's so capable even when casually raising a child." Chu Xing muttered to himself, brazenly taking credit for the achievement without feeling the slightest bit ashamed.
"stop!"
Just as Chu Xing was thinking about many things, a dragon came galloping out from the direction of the caravan, with a majestic and burly mercenary sitting on it, heading towards Chu Xing!
Chu Xing initially thought this wasn't a call to him. He looked around and found that there was nothing in this direction except for his own carriage.
After all, Chu Xing and his group hadn't done anything, so it seemed a bit strange that they were suddenly stopped.
However, Chu Xing has always been a civilized and well-mannered person. Since someone called him, he naturally had to respond. He quickly told the girl driving the carriage to stop, jumped off the carriage, and stood on the ground, looking at the big mercenary who was getting closer and closer!
After a while, the mercenary came to Chu Xing's side... Then Chu Xing realized that his height might need to be increased. The mercenary in front of him was already a big guy, and with the earth dragon on his body, his height exceeded 2.5 meters. It was really not easy for Chu Xing, who was only 1.8 meters tall, to see the mercenary!
Fortunately, this mercenary was also a busy man, and he quickly said, "Leave your earth dragon behind. One of our caravan's earth dragons stepped into a trap and lost a leg. We need another earth dragon now. Don't worry, we are merchants, not robbers. We are willing to buy your earth dragon for five times the market price!"
"So which way should we go? Our destination is also the capital, and it's still quite a distance from here!" Chu Xing raised an eyebrow and asked.
Although he knew the caravan before him was inextricably linked to him, he always considered things from his own perspective. If he had to exhaust himself to reach the capital, he'd rather abandon the entire cartload of goods! It was just a little money anyway, and Chu Xing wasn't short of cash.
###187. Forced buying and selling!###
The mercenary's face stiffened upon hearing this. He hadn't expected Chu Xing to refuse, after all, the price he offered and the caravan's presence would make anyone give up a small earth dragon!
"Do you know that the caravan in front of you is from Kararaki? Are you prepared for the consequences of refusing?" The mercenary's face darkened slightly, and his words carried a cold and ruthless tone.
"So what?" Chu Xing glanced at the Karalaki Merchant Guild not far away and said indifferently, "It's just a merchant guild, how much consequence can it bring me! Do you think you can force me to buy and sell? I'll just laugh. In this world, every city has stories of famous super merchant guilds forcing purchases and selling. With a little packaging, it will become a popular little story after a good meal."
After Chu Xing finished speaking, he looked at the mercenary with a half-smile, his eyes filled with mockery!
"Heh, you're quite interesting!"
This mercenary wasn't stupid; he naturally saw the look in Chu Xing's eyes. But he wasn't new to the game either, and he wouldn't be easily angered by a few words and a glance. He simply sneered, "Do you know what this shipment represents? I'm not afraid to tell you, if there's a single flaw in this shipment, thousands of martial arts experts will come to investigate after it arrives in the capital. Why? Just say it was you who caused this, and guess what will happen?"
"You said it yourself, this is a super-large merchant guild. A merchant guild of this level naturally has many powerful subordinates, so it's normal for them to act a little domineering, isn't it? Like, how about we beat you half to a pulp?"
"Ah!"
Chu Xing couldn't help but chuckle: "Don't say that. No matter how powerful Kararaki is, they can't mess with me. After all, I don't think Kararaki would suffer such a big loss because of a truckload of goods... Besides, whether I'm domineering or not has nothing to do with me, because most of the time I'm more domineering and more powerful than others!"
After saying that, Chu Xing glanced at the mercenary who was squinting at him again, then turned around and jumped onto his own carriage, letting the dumbfounded driver continue on his way!
"and many more!"
The mercenary held a large sword in front of the car, still blocking Chu Xing and his group!
He wouldn't let Chu Xing and the others leave so easily!
You should know that he was just bragging to his men that he would definitely be able to buy the earth dragon from Chu Xing, and at one-third of the market price!
But now, forget about haggling; the seller won't even sell to him, which is really upsetting the mercenary! If he doesn't buy it, wouldn't that prove his incompetence? How can he expect his men to trust him then?
To ensure their imposing and powerful image would endure forever, the mercenaries decided to really pull off a forced sale this time! After all, aside from the young man, everyone else in the car was a woman, frail and delicate! It seemed a mere flick of a finger would be enough to make these four girls cry!
If that's the case, why bother with trading? Let's just rob them!
"Ok?"
Chu Xing sensed a change in the mercenary's aura. He pulled back the carriage curtain and asked indifferently, his face expressionless, "Are you sure?"
"Shut up!"
The mercenary let out a low growl, then stopped looking at Chu Xing, grabbed the earth dragon by the neck, and was about to take the earth dragon that was pulling Chu Xing's cart away!
"Kill them!"
A calm voice rang out beside the mercenary.
The voice was like a judge from hell, judging a person's life, yet it was so natural and peaceful, without a trace of sharpness, as if it were an insignificant little thing, or as if it had been done countless times and no longer mattered...
"Ok?"
The mercenary also heard the two words, but Chu Xing's tone was too natural. He had been on the battlefield for a long time and had never seen anyone say the word 'kill' so calmly, without any chilling or intimidating tone. The mercenary thought he had misheard!
Just as the mercenary was about to take a look at the young man who appeared to be weak and helpless, the three girls stood up without him noticing, their eyes filled with the familiar killing intent! Their imposing aura made him, a man who had spent years in battle, tremble for a moment!
"this--"
The mercenary was immediately alarmed, realizing that these people might not be ordinary!
But clearly, it's too late to think about these things now!
Perhaps this mercenary had the awareness of a warrior, but after all, he was a straightforward warrior. It was unrealistic to expect him to think things through carefully. Therefore, he never imagined that this seemingly ordinary group of people was actually so extraordinary!
If you think about it carefully, Chu Xing and Rem may be dressed rather plainly, but Emilia, who is about to go to the capital to participate in the royal selection, is dressed in a fine but not luxurious style!
This world doesn't have a perfect system. There are countless thieves and robbers along the way. A slightly more refined girl like Emilia would naturally be mistaken for a wealthy woman with some assets! She would become the target of robbers who have little fighting ability but are very greedy!
But none of the people in this car showed any signs of being robbed... isn't that a bit strange?
brush!
In the split second that the mercenary pondered the origins of the group before him, the three girls launched their respective attacks!
A wind blade capable of cutting through anything, an ice pillar shooting like a bullet, and a devastating meteor hammer—all struck at the same moment!
The mercenaries didn't even have a chance to hide! They were dead beyond any doubt! These three girls often practiced combat skills together and went out to hunt monsters. They would each take a different direction to launch a surprise attack. Apart from top-tier experts, second- or third-rate martial arts practitioners like mercenaries could be instantly killed!
"Damn it, boss!"
Upon seeing this, five or six mercenaries who had been chatting and laughing nearby dropped their melons and screamed as if their mothers had been killed: "Enemy attack! Alert! Enemy attack!"
"Damn it..."
Chu Xing naturally heard their voices as well, but he wasn't concerned about the enemy attack. Instead, he was quite interested in the name and couldn't help but chuckle softly!
I'm so curious! What were the mercenary's parents thinking when they named their child like that?! Maybe things are different here from the real world, but damn it... it still means "your motherfucker!"
Da da da!
While Chu Xing was lost in thought, he was surrounded by hundreds, nearly a thousand, fully armed warriors and mages!
Good heavens!
