Upon hearing this, Lilia, who had walked up to the two, could no longer hide her expression:
"That old bastard... he's a real beast!!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Fighting is an inescapable fate for adventurers!!"
Marco extinguished the fire on his clothes, but still had a hole burned in his chest. He jumped back onto the bar and wrung out the water from his clothes.
"Besides, even if you're a girl, our children have to be able to fight!"
"How can a child who walks out of the Forest of Giants not be a 'warrior'?"
Lynn was now puzzled: "But isn't Odelle a priest?"
“You don’t understand.” Marco shook his head, giving him a look that said, “You’re ignorant, so don’t talk.” “It’s precisely because they’re priests that they’re even more ferocious when they fight!”
Lynn glanced at Audrey with sudden realization. It's like a surgeon being most skilled with a scalpel, isn't it?
In that case, his combat ability against Odelle needs to be increased by several levels.
Of course, Audrey is Audrey's business, but Lynn is more concerned about Marco's situation right now:
"Hey old man, why were you acting so strangely just now? It felt like you were hoping I'd get into a fight with your great-nephew?"
Marco then gave Lynn a strange look:
"Isn't it you who's acting strangely?"
"You, a member of the Knightworth family, didn't cause trouble when the Will family came knocking on your door?"
"This is ridiculous! I was clearly giving you guys an excuse to fight!"
Lynn's eyebrows twitched upon hearing this. Did Knightworth really have to meet and fight with the Will family?
"What kind of logic is that? I don't understand it at all."
"You really don't know?"
Marco glanced at Lynn in surprise, then said:
"Didn't your parents say anything?"
"Okay, I'll explain briefly."
"To put it simply, it was my great-grandfather's generation of Titan 'Will' who pursued your ancestor 'Night Vorka'..."
“Wait, pursuing?” Lynn interrupted Marco. “What does this have to do with fighting?”
Marco rolled his eyes at this point: "Because the way to pursue someone is to win a fight, and then your ancestor will marry my great-grandfather."
"You should know that my great-grandfather was a powerful demigod who awakened the bloodline of the Titans."
Lynn's expression instantly became subtle:
"Did they win?"
At this point, Odelle added:
"Our ancestor never won a single game!"
"And that was after losing to Lord Knightworth, then to his daughter, and after that, to his granddaughter."
"Finally, our ancestor was so indignant that he established the rule that members of the Will family must challenge Knightworth whenever they see him."
After saying that, Odelle said helplessly:
"Grandpa, this is so many years ago, why are you older generation still insisting on it?"
"Because we old folks are still alive!"
"Besides, I've been taught a lesson by Delina, so why should that brat Leo escape a beating?"
Marco muttered something, then glanced at Lynn, whose face was full of disdain, before explaining some details:
"Simply put, if members of the Will family happen to see each other, people of the same sex will fight to determine who is the elder brother and who is the younger brother. People of opposite sexes will fight, and the winner can directly extend a marriage invitation. Of course, whether they agree or not is another matter, but that's the general idea."
"I thought you knew."
Marco scratched his head. He had thought that young Leo was a bit reckless and wanted to use the old rule to have someone look after him in Mona City. But he didn't expect that Lynn didn't know about this.
Strange, why didn't the older generation of the Knightworth family pass down even this kind of insight?
Just as Marco was wondering, he suddenly noticed a problem.
"Wait a minute, Lynn, what are you looking at my granddaughter for?"
At this moment, Lynn, who had been stealing glances at Odelle several times, said matter-of-factly:
"Didn't you say that Knightworth and Will would fight every time they met? I'm just following the rules, Grandpa!"
Hearing this shameless fellow even calling him "grandpa," Marco couldn't help but laugh in anger.
"I see now, you're just here to cause trouble!!"
"You started this trouble for me." Lynn looked at Marco with disdain. "You're allowed to cause me trouble, but I'm not allowed to cause trouble for Odelle?"
"Grandpa, the double standards can't be this outrageous!"
"Damn it, you're still yelling?!"
Marco was so angry that he was about to jump up and kick Lynn.
But before he could make a move, Odelle pressed him down:
"Alright, Grandpa, Lynn was just joking."
"Besides, I didn't inherit Will's surname, so this old rule doesn't apply to me."
"That's because..."
Marco coughed suddenly after speaking, then turned to look at Lynn:
"Never mind, there's an outsider here, so let's not say anything more."
Lynn raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, then said with a grin, "No, I think I can be someone else."
"Shut up."
Marco rolled his eyes, then said irritably:
"Instead of this, you should hurry back and inform your family."
"Even the Pride School from Will's hometown has come over. It seems there are quite a few old fogies here this time, coming to your dragon family's stronghold to join in the fun."
Even if you say that....
Lynn scratched his head. He didn't even know where the Dragon Clan's headquarters was. How was he supposed to find it?
It was at this moment that
Two knocks sounded on the door.
When Lynn turned around, he saw a pretty blue-haired snow elf girl standing in the doorway that Leo had kicked open earlier.
"that....."
Ramy, whom he hadn't seen for two days, stood at the door, looking slightly hesitant, and said:
"Excuse me, is Lynn here...? Oh? She is!"
"Lamy?" Lynn looked at Lamy with surprise, then walked over. "What brings you here?"
At this point, Ramie said somewhat embarrassedly:
"Grandmother sent me to find you, saying she has something to say..."
After saying that, Ramie whispered a reminder:
"It seems like relatives from your hometown have come to visit... Lynn, remember to be careful from now on."
"Ok?"
Lynn was also taken aback when she heard this. Did Ramie have relatives coming from her hometown?
Are they the Snow Elves?
"Well," Lynn said, one hand on his hip, looking speechless, "Mona City has become more and more lively since I arrived!"
Chapter 141 Want to be my fiancée? First, get in line and take a number!
"What do you mean it'll be lively once you get here?"
Marco, who was drying his bald head with a towel, glanced at Lynn:
"Mona City is always so lively!"
"Anyway, I've lived here for so many years, and almost every five years, a bunch of big things always happen. I'm almost used to it."
"You even figured out the patterns in this?"
Lynn glanced at Marco in surprise, then stroked his chin and said:
"And in a situation like this, shouldn't we say I'm being overly 'self-conscious'?"
Why do you say you're overly self-conscious?
Marco looked at Lynn with surprise upon hearing this:
"Shouldn't we encourage young people to be self-important?"
"What's the difference between a young person who can't boast and those 'cows and horses' produced in the underground city?"
"An adventurer who doesn't even have the guts to boast will never become a hero!"
Marco slapped his forehead as he finished speaking, looking puzzled.
"That's strange. Did the place you used to live in not really support individual development?"
Has the Knightworth family changed their educational methods?
Lynn then said with a forced smile, "You'll lose a friend if you say that, sir."
Stop talking, buddy. I have a brother who can't stand this kind of attack.
Lynn touched his face, then looked at Ramie who was 'too embarrassed to speak' next to him, then at Marco, and forcibly changed the subject:
"By the way, old man, yesterday's experiment is finished. How do we hand it over?"
"Just give the stamped list to Odelle."
After Marco finished speaking, he suddenly realized something and turned to look at Lynn:
"What happened? They finished that long-term experimental task in one night?"
"You wouldn't be doing fake orders, would you?"
"Let me tell you, if the guild ever investigates, I'll sell you out the moment I see it!"
Hearing those words, which seemed like a threat but were actually a reminder, Lynn scratched his head and said:
"Aren't you curious about how I got that gold card?"
Marco was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then looked at Lynn as if he had seen a ghost:
"Is Naka Lady Lina?"
Marco, a seasoned veteran of Mona City, knew exactly who the demigod in the drug research institute was.
However, Marco originally thought that the merchant guild gold card in Lynn's hand, which symbolized a demigod, was given to Lynn by a demigod from the Knightworth family.
But judging from Lynn's current expression, it seems to be Lina's gold card...
"You little rascal, you didn't sell yourself to that guy, did you?"
Marco said half-jokingly that, after all, he really couldn't imagine that Lina, who had always focused on research experiments, would give away the gold card for any other reason.
Unless, in Lina's eyes, Lynn is an important research asset that belongs only to her, which is why she would use her 'identity' to provide protection.
Lynn looked at Marco in shock upon hearing this, and asked uncertainly:
"You old geezer, you don't have any prophetic abilities, do you?"
"It really is!!" Marco's eyes widened, and he quickly warned, "Be careful, that woman is notoriously eccentric. Be careful she doesn't mess with you to death."
"He'd probably die, but he could be completely drained..." Lynn thought to himself, then pulled out the mission document from his inner pocket.
