After the slave owners went bankrupt, they all wanted to keep me as a mistress.

"Adventurer, you have one last chance to make a wish!"

"The last wish..."

"I actually hope you can do some business, but you're a slime, and I've already made three wishes. Let's give up on this last one, which I got by exploiting a loophole."

Mu Qiu pondered for a moment, then smiled and spoke.

Although he outwardly gave up this wish.

But he believed that Lyme should understand his unspoken message.

Although he only said he was doing business, the other party probably understood that he was referring to the slave trade.

"Ha, ha... Of course! How could a slime go into business? Human kid, you're quite sensible!"

Lyme laughed loudly, but tears were almost streaming down his face.

No!

Don't do this kind of thing!

Lyme Lyme screamed wildly in his heart.

I finally escaped the abyss of sloth, and finally got to enjoy the leisurely life of a vampire in the human world... but on my very first day out of the abyss, I ran into the Demon King!

Lyme Lyme was utterly devastated.

It never wants to be a beast of burden again!

While in the Abyss of Sloth, because Lord Sloth was in a deep sleep, all matters, big and small, were entrusted to him!

Lady Sloth is the Sloth King who inherited the original sin of sloth. She is so slothful that she even finds it troublesome to appoint a management team. As a result, in the past thousand years of the Sloth Abyss, only Lym Lym has been appointed as a secretary by Lady Sloth.

Even though he could summon some demons to help him with some of the work, because Lord Slosser didn't know these demons at all, they couldn't enter the places that Lord Slosser had set up with sloth traps, requiring special privileges to enter.

In many places, only Lem Lem can freely enter and exit, so he simply cannot delegate these tasks to others!

This results in him having a lot of things to deal with every day!

He's a vampire lord, yet he has to work overtime 365 days a year, 24 hours a day... Is that right?

Lem felt this was wrong.

He's a vampire, he should be free!

Since he became a legend and was given a name by Lord Slosser, he has hardly taken a day off, so he is sincerely grateful to the Demon King—if it weren't for the Demon King, he doesn't know when he would have been able to escape the abyss!

It thought that pledging allegiance to the Demon King would be a new beginning, but the Demon King actually hinted that it should engage in the slave trade... to keep working?

But now the Demon King wants him to keep working overtime and go to the human world to do business...

All the money I earn in the future will definitely go to the Demon King, right?

Lyme thought to himself in despair.

Surely the Demon King wouldn't complain about having too much money, right?

And the reason he was sent to do business was probably to make him money, right?

Given the Demon King's perspective, he certainly wouldn't be interested in a few hundred thousand gold coins, so he must earn at least several million gold coins every month, right?

As for how to hand the money over to the Demon King, Rem wasn't worried.

The Demon King must have a base in the human world.

The Demon King will probably place some chests filled with gold coins in his base. He can then secretly put the money he earns into the chests without passing through anyone else's hands or having direct contact with the Demon King.

That way, even if his identity is exposed, it won't implicate the Demon King!

"Master, look!"

Vera suddenly tugged at Mu Qiu's sleeve, pointed at Lyme Lyme, and exclaimed softly, "It looks like it's about to cry from emotion! Look, it's dripping with slime!"

Mu Qiu chuckled and said, "It's probably because I gave up my last wish, right? After all, it knows that I'm not some kind of demon, and I won't make things difficult for it just because its wish wasn't granted."

This, this is clearly a warning!

This is definitely a warning to him!

Lime's enormous jelly-like body trembled violently.

If you fail to complete the task hinted at by the Demon King, you will be executed... That must be what he means, right?

No… he hasn’t even drunk blood yet! He hasn’t experienced the true life of a vampire! How can he be executed by the Demon King for such a reason!

"By the way, there's one more thing..."

Seeing Mu Qiu stroking his chin and picking up the magic crystal card, seemingly about to say something, Lem Lem's body trembled violently again.

Quack! Another new command? I don't want to hear it!

Demon Lord! Please, please stop!

I will help you earn lots and lots of gold coins!

I will secretly place these gold coins in your base! No one will ever discover them!

If you'd just give me a few days off... Good heavens! I'd be more than happy with just one day off a year!

Lem, fearing that Mu Qiu would issue new orders, could no longer maintain its composure as a legendary slime and let out a short whimper.

"Uh... Well, since the wish has been fulfilled... Rem-sama has important matters to attend to... so, I'll take my leave now!"

It babbled incoherently, its enormous, transparent body suddenly contracting inward, as if squeezed by an invisible force.

The next second, it burst with a "pop," like a punctured bubble, instantly splitting into countless tiny water droplets that scattered and then disappeared into the air as if evaporated.

Its sudden and disheveled disappearance was less like the exit of a legendary creature and more like the panicked flight of a little monster fleeing in disarray.

The empty forest clearing was now only occupied by the two monsters staring at each other with wide eyes, and Vera and Fiona looking at each other with blank expressions.

"What is this...?"

Vera blinked, and said uncertainly, "...Did the emotion evaporate?"

Fiona was also a little confused, and the ahoge on her head curled slightly, forming a question mark shape.

"Why does it feel like... Mr. Lem Lem was afraid of something just now?"

"It's your imagination."

Mu Qiu spoke calmly.

He seems to be a demon from the abyss who is loyal to the Demon King.

Then he wouldn't have any psychological burden in using it. This kind of high-level abyss demon must have already stained his hands with the blood of countless innocent people, right?

He actually wanted to ask how many gold coins were in the magic crystal card, but before he could ask, the other party suddenly ran away...

As Mu Qiu spoke, he picked up the magic crystal card from the back of the earth dragon.

The system's voice sounded as expected the instant he picked up the magic crystal card.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have earned eight million gold coins in a fraudulent transaction!]

[Hey! Host, I have a way to double these eight million gold coins. Would you like to give it a try?]

【whether】

Upon hearing the voice of the AI ​​guidance, Mu Qiu's gaze sharpened.

Oh?

This is the first time I've encountered such a problem.

Can it double eight million gold coins?

If it doubles, then he should have a personal fortune of 16 million gold coins... right?

Chapter 90 Then let us offer our loyalty to the Demon King!

Considering his previous responses, the Byd system always manages to surprise him.

Mu Qiu asked somewhat warily, "After these eight million gold coins are doubled, they're still gold coins, right?"

[Of course, don't worry, host! After doubling, the eight million gold coins will definitely become sixteen million gold coins!]

[Furthermore, once you successfully double your coins, they remain your personal wealth and will not be converted into system funds under any circumstances!]

The system seemed to know he was worried, and it emphasized it again.

"Oh?"

Mu Qiu was somewhat tempted.

Is there such a good thing?

The unit remains gold coins, which remain his personal wealth and will not become system funds under any circumstances.

With that in mind, Mu Qiu answered without hesitation.

"Double it up? Of course I'll double it up!"

[Okay, you're doubling your coins!]

[Oops! Your luck wasn't good enough, you failed to double your bet!]

[Congratulations, host, you have received 16 million in system funds!] ? ? ?

Upon hearing the words "system funds," Mu Qiu's brows furrowed immediately.

"System, didn't you just say it would definitely become 16 million gold coins of personal wealth?"

[Hey host, you've got it wrong!]

The system's instructions rang cheerfully in Mu Qiu's mind.

I'm saying that after doubling your gold coins, they will definitely become 16 million gold coins, and after successfully doubling them, they will remain your personal wealth and will not become system funds—but the prerequisite is that you successfully double your coins!

[Your attempt to double your money failed, so it will now become 16 million gold coins in system funds!]

Mu Qiu's lips twitched slightly. After a moment of silence, he silently squeezed out two words through his teeth.

"You're really awesome!"

He was on guard against everything, but he never expected that the system had laid an ambush for him here.

[By the way, host, your total system funds have reached 25 million gold coins for the first time. We are now temporarily opening a channel for exchanging Starshine Stones for you. Please note that exchanging for Starshine Stones will not change your fund amount.]

Furthermore, due to the scarcity and enormous demand for Starshine Stones, this is a market where supply completely falls short of demand. You'll often need to pay several times the price elsewhere to buy Starshine Stones. We strongly recommend that you exchange for them!

"Exchange for Starshine Stones?"

Mu Qiu raised an eyebrow slightly.

Speaking of which, he remembered that Starshine Stone was a material used by professionals at the peak of Mithril level and above, right?

This can be integrated into a long career path, forging a legendary legacy.

Vera is already at the early stage of Orichalcos level, and she's not far from Mithril level.

Although Fiona is at the peak of the Gold rank, he is going to Earth City to buy her a batch of potions, which will greatly enhance her strength. In that case, it seems he should prepare for them to advance to the Legendary rank in advance.

Moreover, once they advance to the Legendary level, their original Mithril-level slave contracts will be instantly nullified!

At that time... a knight like Fiona will definitely leave him without hesitation, making all his investments in her go down the drain and leaving him bankrupt!

Thinking of this, Mu Qiu became excited.

He would have to prepare the best starstones for Fiona so that he could lose everything in one fell swoop!

"System, what is the highest level of the Legendary Rank?"

Mu Qiu asked quickly in his mind.

[The legendary staircase can be forged with a maximum of eighteen steps, and a minimum of six steps.]

Furthermore, depending on the path chosen by the professional and their own conviction, each step requires a minimum of one starstone and a maximum of twenty-seven starstones. The stronger the conviction and the more advanced the path, the fewer other professionals are on that path, and the fewer starstones are needed, and vice versa.

The system voice remained pleasant, and it also provided an example.

[Taking the Princess Knight as an example, if she chose the concept of "protection" when breaking through to the Legendary level and forging a Legendary rank, and incorporated this concept into her Legendary rank—]
