Didn't you see passengers Toppa, Emerald, and Gold Dust working?! Toppa!

Kiana was hit on the head with a flying slipper and sullenly shrank off the sofa.

I'm already honest, please let me go.

Only Mei was spared from Pam's slipper attack.

Pam glared at Star, March 7, and Kiana.

"Alright, alright, come and eat, lunch is ready."

Xing raised his hand upon hearing this.

"Pam! Celia hasn't arrived yet! I invited her to have dinner with us."

Upon hearing this, Pam pondered for a moment.

"Star Passenger, go to Celia's house and call her."

Xing immediately jumped up from the sofa and ran towards the portal leading to the Arad Continent.

Just as Xing was about to walk into the portal, Celia suddenly walked out in front of him, and their heads collided.

"Ouch!!!"

Both of them took a few steps back and covered their heads.

Xing rubbed her forehead and looked at the person who had come.

"Celia, I was just about to go and invite you to dinner."

Celia smiled and nodded.

"I just finished working. I'm sorry I'm a little late. I've kept you waiting."

Chapter 157, Jade: We are law-abiding merchants

Pam walked over.

"Lunch has just been prepared, Pa."

"Celia, come and sit down, dinner's ready, Pa."

Celia smiled and nodded, then reached out to help Xing up.

Afterwards, everyone sat down at the table to eat lunch.

Pam stood on a high stool and raised her drink.

"Come on, let's all have a drink together."

"Jade, Gold Sand, Celia, Mei, eat more! Try my cooking and see if it's good, P.A."

Everyone raised their glasses, clinked them together, and drank them down in one gulp.

Xing put down her drink and immediately grabbed a chicken leg and stuffed it into her mouth.

Kiana, who was sitting next to Xing, saw this and followed suit, picking up a chicken leg and stuffing it into her mouth.

The others were not so rude; they ate much more elegantly.

Pam rolled her eyes at Star; she was too lazy to care anymore. She had told Star to eat like this many times, but Star just couldn't correct it.

Xing swallowed the chicken in his mouth and said to Celia.

"Ceria, we've already decided on a name for our adventure team: Valkyrie!"

Upon hearing this, Celia smiled and praised her.

"What a beautiful name, Valkyrie."

Kiana chuckled. Although she didn't come up with the name, Mei did!

If Mei's chosen name is praised, then she herself is being praised.

"Hehe~ Isn't it nice~ Mei named it."

When Celia heard Xing talking about the adventure team, she remembered something.

"By the way, Xing, how did you meet Ariel?"

Just now, not long after you left, she came to me asking about you and March.

Upon hearing this, Xinghe and March 7th paused in their actions.

Xing said slowly.

"Ariel, is that the magician? We met this morning when we shared a table for breakfast downstairs at your place."

March 7th said this while chewing.

"She made plans with us and Xing to go on an adventure with us this afternoon."

Celia was shocked to hear that Ariel had arranged to go on an adventure with March 7.

"Ariel invited you on an adventure? Ariel? Really?"

She's a lone wolf! She disdains teaming up with other adventurers.

She has always been alone.

Upon hearing this, March 7th became somewhat curious.

"Huh? All we know is that all the adventurers are afraid of her. This morning, when we had breakfast with her, the adventurers around us were terrified of her."

Why does she disdain teaming up with those adventurers?

We thought the adventurers weren't teaming up with her because they were afraid of her.

Celia explained.

"Ariel is hailed as the strongest genius in magic in 1000 years."

She had already earned her profession when she was 1 year old.

By the age of 3, she had already learned the basic magic of each element.

By the age of 5, she had already mastered the skills of all professions.

Then, at the age of 8, he embarked on his first adventure.

Her first adventure was terrifyingly successful; she single-handedly took down over 500 goblins.

Later, as her rank rose higher and higher, her fame also grew.

During this time, she received invitations from many powerful adventure groups.

However, she rejected them all and publicly stated that she could not possibly be with stupid people.

That's why she always takes risks alone.

Emerald, standing to the side, smiled slightly after hearing this.

"This personality is quite similar to that of the geniuses in the Genius Club."

They are both geniuses, and both look down on us ordinary people.

"If she could come here, I think she would definitely get along well with all the geniuses in the talent club."

Sand Gold rested his hands on the back of the sofa.

"Indeed, no matter which world it is, there is no shortage of geniuses who are different from the crowd."

To summarize, let me use the words of one of my friends.

Geniuses stroll among the stars, while mediocre ones can't even leave a single footprint.

Celia pondered the sentence repeatedly, and the more she pondered it, the more she felt that it applied perfectly to Ariel.

Ariel is that kind of person; her mastery of magic is something that ordinary magicians can hardly match.

What she considered a very simple spell was one that an ordinary magician might never be able to comprehend in his entire life.

"This statement certainly applies to Ariel."

On March 7th, I inexplicably began to imagine myself going on an adventure with Ariel.

I can imagine that I will be disliked all the way.

Like Ms. Black Tower, she has a very sharp tongue.

On March 7th, I couldn't help but have second thoughts.

"Star, so...should we still team up with Ariel?"

Xing looked indifferent upon hearing this.

"Let's team up! Why not? It's our first adventure, wouldn't it be perfect if I led the way myself?"

"Hey newbie, isn't it normal to get scolded a bit while learning?"

March 7th still looked unwilling.

"You're quite optimistic; we're a little scared..."

Celia smiled and said.

"March, don't be so afraid. I know Ariel's personality."

Although she may be sharp-tongued, she has a very soft heart.

In the wild, she often rescued adventurers.

Upon hearing this, March 7th breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's still possible."

Celia then looked at the gold dust.

"By the way, Mr. Sand Gold, Uncle Linus asked me to ask you if you still have the same kind of ore that we sent over last time. If so, send him another batch."

Upon hearing that business was coming his way, Sand Gold immediately perked up.

"Yes, definitely. I'll send it to him in a bit."

Jade took a sip of her drink, and with a gentle flick of her tongue, she wiped the juice from her lips.

"Celia, there's something I'd like to ask you."

What materials do I need to prepare to open a shop in your area?

Celia said upon hearing this.

"It's very simple. You just need to take the shop title deed to the relevant registration office and register it."

Then, you just need to pay your taxes on time and in full each month.

Please remember that taxes must be paid on time and in full.

Otherwise, the shop will be immediately seized, and if the payment is not made within a month, the shop will be publicly auctioned.

Emerald was a little surprised to hear this; she hadn't expected the Arad Continent to be so strict about taxes.

"Don't worry, we are all law-abiding businessmen and will definitely act in accordance with rules and regulations."

March 7th and Xing stared at Jade, wide-eyed, upon hearing Jade's words.

Say that again? Who are you? Are you a law-abiding businessman?

Are you sure? Don't you know your company's reputation?

Sand Gold smiled when he saw the disbelieving looks on Xing and March 7's faces.

"Don't doubt it, we are truly law-abiding businessmen."

However, in certain business transactions, it may be appropriate to use some subtle tactics.

Xing and March 7th chuckled simultaneously, then ignored Sand Gold and continued eating.

Seeing this, Sand Gold helplessly shrugged.
