My wife, who's in a vegetative state, please stop eavesdropping on my thoughts.

Tier 3 Contract Agreement: Includes 5 Tier 7 potions; requires nominee status and possession of at least one Arcane item.

Level 4 Contract Agreement: Includes 5 bottles of Tier 7 potions; requires registration and must have defeated a Tier 7 transcendent being.

After reading it, Weiss's expression became somewhat strange.

Well...

Given his current circumstances, he could sign a Level 3 contract right now, with virtually no barriers to entry. However, the gift of only 5 bottles is hardly enough to satisfy him.

It seems that this is the highest level of treatment that ordinary superhumans can receive.

This is on a completely different level from the previous level where Ice Queen gave away 20 bottles of potions for free; it's worlds apart.

And what the Starry Sky Merchant Guild is now promising to Bingfei is probably no less than what they've promised.

"But then again, no wonder the Starry Sky Commerce Guild can operate all over the world..."

Weiss couldn't help but admire this operating model.

That's incredibly wealthy; they're really casting a wide net.

Many of the people they sponsored have likely already successfully advanced to the 7th level of superhuman.

Even if I don't work for the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce, I will at least owe them this favor.

Even the night patrol members.

There must be quite a few who couldn't resist registering their names in the Starry Sky Merchant Guild to collect potion resources.

.......

Just as Weiss was studying the notice intently—

A familiar figure walked out of the conference room at the back, looking dejected.

It was Zere, the former head of the Starry Night Merchant Guild branch in Moonlit City.

He was completely different from when he was in Moonlit City. He looked haggard, with sunken eyes, and seemed utterly hopeless.

However, after seeing Weiss near the counter, his expression immediately turned incredulous, and he walked over quickly with some excitement.

"Weiss, you actually dare to come to the Chamber of Commerce headquarters!?"

"Give me back those Tier 7 potions! You kept quite a few, didn't you!?"

Zell clung tightly to the counter, his expression ferocious and hysterical.

Weiss gave him a somewhat puzzled look.

"Didn't I already say I drank it all?"

"This is impossible!!"

Zell, flustered and red-faced, launched into a heated argument, spitting everywhere: "Weiss, you must be joking! I'm finished! And you're not much better off!!"

"Once I can't repay these losses and the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce liquidates me, it will be your turn. You will be blacklisted. From now on, no family related to you will be allowed to join the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce, nor will they be allowed to cooperate with any of its businesses!"

Zell has already said all those harsh words.

Seeing that Weiss still looked indifferent and continued filling out the order form, Zelden felt like crying.

His tone gradually changed from threatening to pleading.

"I'm telling the truth! Those Tier 7 potions aren't just my personal property; they're the public property of the Starry Sky Merchant Guild! If we can't pay them back, we'll both die..."

Zell cried and wailed around Weiss for a long time.

The voice gradually changed from hysteria to sobs and choked cries.

Many nobles who frequented the Starry Sky Merchant Guild turned their heads and curiously observed the scene with expressions of amusement.

Weiss, however, remained calm and composed, with a thoughtful expression.

A moment later, he turned slightly to the side and tapped on the glass display case of the counter, gesturing for Zell to look in his direction.

"So, you haven't been fired yet, right?"

"You should still have high-level authority, right?"

Zell paused for a moment, then nodded.

"Give me a higher tier than these four agreements, something like the Ice Queen's 20-bottle potion tier. That way, once I advance to tier 7, I can return the rest to you, and your losses will be fully recovered, right?"

Weiss said dismissively.

However, upon hearing this, Zell almost laughed in anger, and questioned him with a look of absurdity:

"No, at a time like this, you're still thinking of getting something for nothing?!"

"You think the higher-ups at the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce are stupid?! They'll definitely try to get it back then, and even the Lunette family won't be able to protect you!!"

"Forget about opening the store, I'll buy it myself."

After Weiss finished speaking, he lowered his head again and continued filling out the form, too lazy to waste time arguing with him.

Seeing Weiss's nonchalant attitude, Zell was so angry that he trembled all over, but he was helpless and could only stand there with gritted teeth.

However, about half a minute later...

He gradually calmed down, his gaze shifting back and forth between Weiss and the signing agreement several times.

He suddenly realized... that what Weiss said actually made some sense?

No, to be more precise, there is a solution that is very well suited to their current situation.

Thinking of this, Zell's voice suddenly lowered a few decibels.

"Wait, Weiss"

"There is indeed an agreement that would suit you..."

"Stay here and wait for me!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zell immediately turned around and ran back into the conference room to rummage through his things.

Less than a minute later, he ran back, covered in sweat, and placed a brand new agreement in front of Weiss.

The gift includes 10 bottles of Tier 7 potions. You must advance to Tier 7 within one year; otherwise, you will need to transport goods for the Starry Sky Merchant Guild until the debt is repaid.

“Okay, if you sign this, I won’t make you pay back the money for those medicines anymore.” A smile returned to Zell’s face, and he said in a deliberately relaxed tone, “That way we’ll have a one-year grace period. You can pay it back slowly by selling the medicine, and I won’t be punished too severely.”

Looking at Zell with a big smile, Weiss looked at him with an expression as if he were an idiot.

What this guy means is—

He signed this agreement out of thin air, which he considered as repayment for the loss of the previous 11 bottles of potion. However, he didn't get a single drop of potion and had to bear the subsequent debt.

Under Zell's expectant gaze.

"Shh-"

Weiss tore the agreement to shreds.

Then, without changing his expression, he handed the completed shopping form to the staff at the front desk of the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce.

Zell stared in disbelief. (Deep)

The front desk staff initially thought that Zell, as a high-ranking member of the Chamber of Commerce, would not allow this man with whom he had a clear grudge to successfully buy the potion.

She was hesitating whether to consult with her superiors first before making a decision.

Then I looked down and saw...

The delivery address field on the form clearly displays three large characters.

Lunette

She suddenly felt a headache coming on.

This isn't someone you can just offend casually...

However, just as the staff were struggling with what to do and caught in a dilemma—

A sudden commotion arose outside the gates of the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce.

As the indistinct voice drew closer, it quickly swelled into a frenzied roar of praise.

Weiss glanced outside.

A woman was walking towards the entrance of the Starry Sky Merchant Guild.

She was surrounded by countless newspaper reporters and enthusiastic crowds, completely packed inside and out.

The scene was like a superstar attending an event in my previous life, with crowds of people from all directions and shouts rising and falling.

Under the spotlight.

This is a woman with long, ice-blue hair.

Her long hair cascaded down to her waist like frozen willow branches, each strand shimmering with a crystalline, frosty sheen. With each step she took, it swayed, leaving a trail of tiny ice crystals in the air, like the tail of a shooting star.

She wore an ice-blue gradient robe, the color of which gradually transitioned from ice blue to almost transparent light white at the hem. Water lily-colored ribbons surrounded her shoulders, and the surrounding area was filled with tiny ice crystals and snowflakes.

Her face was exquisitely beautiful and delicate, simply breathtaking.

and--

The woman's beautiful blue eyes were incredibly gentle, and even her eyelashes had a charming icy blue hue, long and slightly upturned.

It's a look that seems to convey deep affection and tenderness even when gazing at a dog.

If nothing unexpected happens, this should be—

The Ice Queen on Night Patrol!!

It can only be her, to make such a grand entrance when she goes out...

The atmosphere in the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce hall instantly became frenzied, with all the guests whispering among themselves, and even the staff behind the counters looking on with admiration.

Seeing Weiss's slightly absent-minded expression, Zell beside him sneered, his tone sarcastic:

"See? Only a super goddess like her, who is clearly one in a million, can enjoy those top-tier contracts. For a commoner like you from the borderlands to think you can get 20 bottles of potions for nothing is simply wishful thinking!!"

You've already cried.

While spying on the Ice Queen, Weiss didn't forget to retort.

What goddess? He even wrote an ode to a goddess.

Upon hearing this, Zell snorted coldly, knowing that Weiss would definitely deny everything to the end, so he could only settle the score with him another time. He then went straight to Bingfei to curry favor.

Weiss looked away and leaned back against the counter, waiting listlessly for the staff to process his order.

Half a minute later.

A group of enthusiastic fans were kept outside by the guards of the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce.

Only Night Patrol Ice Queen entered the Starry Sky Merchant Guild.

However, as Bingfei curiously surveyed the interior of the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce headquarters, her gentle, icy blue eyes froze when she saw the silver-haired boy leaning against the counter.

After secretly observing for a while, the ends of her hair twitched slightly.

Then--

Under Zell's somewhat bewildered gaze.

Bingfei carefully walked to Weiss's side and gave a soft, weak bow.

Then, in a low voice that only the two of them could hear, she asked:

"Greetings, sir. It's a pleasure to meet you. I am Bingfei, the newly selected member of the Eight Guards..."

“Um, excuse me—”

"Which of the eight guards are you?"

Weiss remained expressionless.

At this moment, he had more or less realized what made this Ice Princess different.

Completely different from that silly astrology.

This woman...
