Although it is a bit shabby, this heroic spirit is super strong

Lucy thrust her sword into the giant's eyes and unleashed magic.

As the core of the giant's torso and head was destroyed, his body melted and turned into black liquid.

"Wow, this guy was really disgusting when he died."

"Sister, be quiet. These things are cursed."

Rose stopped Lucy from shaking off the black liquid on her body and began to use magic to clean them off.

"What did you two do?"

Su Lin'er didn't understand why the giant died suddenly.

"This guy can be easily dealt with by destroying two cores in a short period of time. Brother Xiao told us so."

"Brother Xiao?"

"Ah, Xiao, you bastard! We've already dealt with this big guy. Don't cheat on the dessert you promised us."

"I got it."

"Hill, who is this?"

Su Lin'er asked Hillilite beside Xiao with some curiosity.

"I'll explain that later. Let's deal with the eye circles first."

Looking at the Akatsuki group on the ground, Hildreth's eyes became much sharper.

The next morning, Xiao and the others were invited into Hildreth's office.

"Good morning, Miss O'Neill, Miss Brave."

"Good morning, Mr. Xiao."

Hildreth responded to Xiao's warm greeting very coldly.

"My name is Su Lin'er, just call me by my name."

"Mr. Xiao, thank you very much for what happened last night."

"You're welcome. And just call me Xiao."

"What's your purpose in visiting me? You can't possibly be just trying to do me a favor like you joked about last night, right?"

Hildrite looked at Akatsuki cautiously.

Although Su Lin'er beside her had a casual smile on her face, she was secretly prepared to fight at any time.

"Well, that's just an explanation. After all, I want to negotiate a deal with Miss O'Neill, and if I don't get involved with you in advance, the deal might not go smoothly."

"trade?"

"Are you still worried about the Third Prince's fiancé?"

"Yes, do you have any good ideas?"

Hildreth didn't hide anything, but asked Xiao cautiously.

The reason why O'Neill is currently unable to determine the third prince's fiancée is mainly because Hillary is not recognized by the older generation of the O'Neill family.

Now Hillary can't find a suitable candidate.

Before Hillary's father died, he ignored his sons and directly gave the title to his only daughter, Hillary.

This caused an uproar in the imperial aristocracy.

The elders of the O'Neill family and Hillilite's brothers tried every means every day to pull her down from the position of head of the family.

First of all, Hillel herself cannot be the third prince's fiancée.

Not to mention that she really hated that childish brat.

If Hillilite became the third prince's fiancée, the elders of the O'Neill family would immediately use this as an excuse to remove her from the position of head of the family.

And having the daughter of another elder in the family as the fiancé would give people the opportunity to integrate those in the O'Neill family who are hostile to Hillilite.

In that case, Hillilite would still be easily pulled down from the position of head of the family.

"How about making them look up to you? In fact, Miss O'Neill has a track record that they can admire."

Xiao showed a very evil smile.

"It's just that they don't want to admit it right now. Those old guys like O'Neal think too highly of themselves, so they look down on you."

"Woohoo, Akatsuki, you've started again."

When Lucy saw Xiao's smile, she showed a look of disgust.

"Sister, don't disturb Brother Xiao now."

"so what?"

Hildet urged Xiao to continue.

"Then let them fear you. Only by making them tremble with fear will they be able to reconsider themselves and you."

Xiao took out a space ring.

"this is?"

"Evidence. Evidence of O'Neill family elders committing crimes or colluding with hostile forces. Everyone has it, and I've forged it for those who don't. You can rest assured about the quality."

"You mean I should threaten them?"

"You know how to do it better than I do."

Seeing Xiao's smile, Hildreth also smiled.

"what do you want?"

"I hope you can include the Macaulay family in your faction and protect them."

"The Macaulay family?"

Hearing this name, Hillilite's expression became very complicated.

"Yes, what's the problem?"

"Are you the guy who caused chaos in Nosti some time ago and forced Crystal to sign a contract?"

"It's me."

"Tsk! Why are you helping that brat?"

[Calling you a brat, Crystal is only one year younger than you, right?]

Seeing Hildrite suddenly throwing a tantrum like a child, Xiao felt a little surprised.

"Even though it's only temporary, I'm still her fiancé after all. Is there anything wrong with helping her?"

"Tsk! I get it. I accept the deal."

"I have another thing here that I wonder if you might be interested in."

Xiao took out an exquisite little wooden box.

"what is this?"

"The potion called Freys's Tears must be very useful to your mother, right?"

"What do you want to exchange this for?"

Hillilite really wanted to get this potion.

Her mother was blinded by poison, and this extremely rare potion, the Tears of Freys, is the one that can heal her.

"If you don't want anything, how about just taking it as a token of our friendship?"

Xiao pushed the wooden box in front of Hildrite.

"You're doing me a favor again, you're such a troublemaker."

After checking the contents of the box, Hildreth sighed helplessly as she looked at Xiao with a smirk on his face.

Chapter 43 Do We Still Need That Kind of Thing Between Us?

Early in the morning, Crystal woke up at the same time as usual.

Although she no longer needs to get up early to work as before, Crystal has become accustomed to getting up at this time.

"Oh, what should I do today?"

Crystal looked at her legs and sighed helplessly.

I still don't feel anything today.

According to the doctor, Crystal's hope of standing up again is very slim.

"You promised to take me on an adventure, liar."

Looking at the adventure novel on the table, Crystal felt very lost.

It had been three months since Xiao left Nosti.

But Crystal had no news about him.

Looking at the busy streets outside the window, Crystal smiled sadly.

Because Paul was possessed by an evil spirit, the monsters he created caused considerable damage to the city.

But in just three months, Nosti had recovered as before.

Crystal knew that this was impossible under normal circumstances.

But Martha tells her that Ed has received a large anonymous donation.

It was precisely because of this money that Nosti's reconstruction went so smoothly.

The Macaulay family was not held responsible for Paul's incident.

Instead, Leicester successfully connected with O'Neill's acting Duke.

"You've clearly fulfilled all of these promises, so why don't you come back to see me sooner?"

Crystal looked at the scenery outside the window and complained.

"Kristo?"

"Sister Martha, please come in."

Watching Martha enter the room, Crystal put on a smile.

"how do you feel today?"

"I still don't feel anything."

Crystal smiled bitterly.

"That's it..."

"Sister Martha, who is this?"

Crystal looked at the black-haired maid behind Martha with great curiosity.

Normally, it would be Carol or Kate who came with Martha to visit him.

"Carol and Kate are off today. This is the new maid."

Martha explained a little flustered.

"Well, thank you for your help then."

Although Martha's behavior made Chris feel a little strange, she didn't care too much.

"By the way, the weather is nice today. How about going downtown?"

"Eh? Sister, don't you usually not let me go out?"

Before, Martha refused to take Kristen to the city.

Because Nosti was in chaos some time ago and the public security was very poor.

And Crystal is also considered a public figure of Nosti.
