emm...

This little mage is definitely up to something, coming to the Tranquil Spring so late at night!

He slowly stretched his body, preparing to ask a few questions.

After all, the Mage Association pays him such a high salary, so he should do his job properly!

However, before he could even speak...

Two figures emerged from the passage, the beautiful human woman who resembled a goddess of ice and snow now carrying a sword.

The extremely cold magical aura was very similar to the magical aura emanating from the [Quiet Spring].

"..."

It must have been placed in a portable storage device before the person went in!

Or perhaps, it was actually a semi-divine artifact that could be stored away.

It's so late, it wouldn't be right to disturb them so abruptly.

You should get some rest.

We need to be well-rested so we can better carry out security work tomorrow.

He kept convincing himself to turn his head to the other side.

Chapter 86 The Most Miserable Extraordinary Profession in Modern Times

Ivia did not notice the Frost Dragon's subtle movements.

She stared at the Frost Sword in Irenevitt's hand for a while, then looked up.

"You're leaving already?"

They just arrived.

“Mm.” Irene Vette nodded gently.

"How's it inside? Is it fun?"

"It's alright, nothing special," Ye Tu said casually.

That's all there is to it?

But doesn't the "Frostwalker's Guide" say that the "Quiet Spring" is the most famous and beautiful attraction in the entire Frostwalker Highlands?

It's only because it's the off-season for tourism, it's evening, and tickets for the Tranquil Spring are hard to come by, that there aren't many people here.

"Then let's not go, shall we?" the maid said.

She wasn't interested in things like "The Tranquil Spring"; all she wanted to do now was go back and study, researching the nun photo book she had just acquired.

"Since we're already here, let's go in and take a look."

Ivia didn't want to leave just like that, after all, she had already come all this way...

"If it's not interesting, let's go back."

"……All right."

Seeing that the maid had agreed, Ivia turned to look at Yetu and Irene Vette.

"Then you two go back first, the maid and I will go in and take a look."

"it is good."

Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Ivia stared at the sword in Irenevitt's hand for a while longer.

I don't think this was here when they arrived.

Where did it come from?

It looks quite unusual...

Also, the nun photo booklet given to initiators was different from the one Ye Tu received compared to the one the maid received.

emm...

Anyway, let's go in and take a look first, and ask around again on the way tomorrow.

Shortly after the two entered the passage.

the other side.

Irene Vitte seemed to remember something:

"She was also possessed by the tentacles of the ancient god, could she have also received a gift from the god of night?"

A strange glint flashed in Ye Tu's eyes.

"Why do you think she can maintain her individuality like you, unaffected by the tentacles of the ancient gods?"

You really think highly of her.

"..."

That seems to be true.

Never mind if I didn't ask.

……

……

The next morning.

The four of them set off early from the inn, passed through the bustling shopping street, and arrived at the Dragon Rental Hall on the other side of Frosthills.

The spacious hall was bustling with people, and a long line of people stood in front of the counters where they could handle their business.

High up, a projected light screen scrolled through information about one giant dragon after another.

Red dragon, green dragon, holy dragon of light, dark dragon of darkness...

There are all kinds of dragons, but due to the special climate of the Frost Highlands, the Frost Dragons are the most numerous.

As soon as I entered the hall, a boldly dressed red-haired dragon girl came up to me holding a flyer.

"Gentlemen, would you like to learn about our newly launched special offer packages?"

"Purchase a lease contract of one year or more and receive a complete set of Dragon Knight extraordinary profession inheritance from Tier 1 to Saint Realm."

"After three years or more, you will receive a Dragon King's essence blood strengthening potion as a gift."

"Opportunity knocks but once; once missed, it's gone forever!"

She was quite enthusiastic.

"A year?" Ivia was a little confused. "Wasn't it only for three years or more that you got the free gift?"

"We're having a promotion lately, would you like to place an order?"

The red dragon girl's eyes lit up as she looked at the staff made of sacred gold in Ivia's hand!

The Holy Mystic Gold, a specialty of the Dawn Empire, sells for an astronomical price per gram.

This person was so extravagant that he used it to make a walking stick!

Rich guy!

"No, no, no."

Ivia quickly shook her head in refusal.

"I have no intention of changing my job title to Dragon Knight."

Dragon Knight: The most grueling and expensive profession in this generation.

With her limited wealth, even if she invested it, she wouldn't make a sound.

"Can I take a look? If you buy it now, I can give you a 10% discount!"

"It's really not necessary!"

Perhaps it was because of that sacred golden staff, the red-haired dragon girl assumed that Ivia was a rare big spender, and so she followed her around trying to sell her things.

In the end, it was only because Ivia's attitude was so firm, and the lobby staff arrived to take them to a private VIP lounge, that she had no choice but to give up.

Half a minute later.

Inside the VIP lounge.

"Whoo~"

Ivia breathed a sigh of relief.

"Aren't dragons... all very arrogant?" Irene Vitte asked, somewhat puzzled.

She had killed many corrupted dragons.

Although the bodies of those dragons were decaying and filthy, their souls remained proud and resilient.

"Arrogance? That was so many years ago."

In this day and age, everyone emphasizes service and attitude.

If you put on a cold face, who, apart from those perverts with special fetishes, would be eager to get close to you?

"All those dragons nowadays are single-mindedly trying to get you to become a dragon knight."

"Why?" the maid asked, also curious.

"Now that you've become a dragon knight, you have to sign a contract with a dragon, right?"

"You have to pay when you sign a contract."

"Moreover, the higher the rank of the dragon knight, the higher the requirement for the dragon's rank, and correspondingly, the more money it will cost."

To be honest, most of the dragons were initially very resistant.

They believe that renting themselves out is no different from selling one's dignity.

The dragon race will never be slaves!

But ever since the first group of dragons who were willing to lower their standards tasted the benefits of doing so, more and more dragons have been unable to resist joining in.

And then it just spiraled out of control.

"It was probably forty years ago."

Ivia pulled out a pair of glasses from somewhere and put them on.

"Back then, dragon knights were still the same as before. After signing the contract, they would do everything they could, sparing no resources, to enhance the dragon's strength."

After all, the dragon's rank is directly linked to the dragon knight's strength.

"But they soon realized something was wrong."

"No matter how much resources are invested in the dragons, they will leave once the contract expires."

Thirty-eight years ago, a dragon knight went bankrupt in the same way.

He devoted all his resources to raising the Holy Light Dragon, with whom he had signed a contract, from the second tier to the third tier.

When the three years were up, the Holy Dragon of Light simply left.

He later signed a contract with his arch-enemy, then turned around and beat him half to death...

Gee!

They're all being treated the same way as the victims in certain special cases.

"Therefore, dragon knights nowadays no longer invest resources in dragons. They prefer to save up more money and directly sign contracts with higher-ranking dragons."

The first few years were incredibly chaotic.

At that time, the 'Dragon Knight' was a profession that symbolized nobility and power.

Making a contract with a giant dragon is something that only happens in dreams.

Therefore, the contracts signed during that period were mostly quite lenient. If a dragon were to encounter a life-threatening situation, it could even unilaterally terminate the contract and abandon the dragon knight to escape!

Fortunately, this situation only lasted for a very short time.

As more and more dragons joined the industry, they rolled up their own sleeves and reverted to the life-and-death pact.
