An hour later, in the living room of the Cursed Lambs headquarters.
“Hahahaha! Interesting ... You are really interesting, V!”
Mr. Lenka who was sitting on the sofa laughed out loud, seemingly greatly comforted by Alexander's remark.
Meanwhile, Alexander sat across the table and spoke casually. The atmosphere seemed so harmonious, full of laughter as if old friends were regrouping. At least, that was what people would think when looking at the two of them.
“So, do you need help from Cursed Lambs, V? You're an interesting person. As long as the price is right, I don't mind helping you,” said Mr. Lenka with a friendly expression on his ferocious face.
“No.” Alexander shook his head. “I came here to offer a business.”
“Business?” Mr. Lenka's eyes narrowed. “You want to take a job killing for us?”
“No, no, no .. I appeared too conspicuous before. Even if it was only meant to help, but people were wary of me. Even Blood Cross immediately marked me as a fugitive,” Alexander said casually.
“True also.” Mr. Lenka stroked the chin. “So what do you want to offer us?”
“A chance to become a free group number 1, and make the ‘noble’ acknowledge you,” said Alexander with a smile behind his mask.
“...”
Mr. Lenka suddenly kept quiet. The expression that originally seemed cheerful and relaxed turned serious, even somewhat gloomy. Just then, a pressure ...the killing intent of a level 4 hunter emanated from the middle-aged man's body.
Although the name is quite feminine, but Mr. Lenka is very famous in Shelter 1. Not only as the chairman of the Cursed Lambs, one of the three best free hunter groups, but also his incredible strength that could be considered one of the best in Shelter 1.
At that very instant, Alexander who was originally speaking kindly stared at Mr. Lenka with indifferent eyes. Instantly, a terrifying pressure also shot out from his body. Although one level below Mr. Lenka, but the momentum is no less strong.
Such a thick and gloomy killing intent emanated from the black-robed man's body. Not to mention, the strangeness happened. It seemed that the air around the man was stagnant, as if being restrained and suppressed by something.
“Hou ..” Mr. Lenka stroked the chin. “Interesting. Looks like you're not kidding me with V.”
Mr. Lenka is back to normal, no longer looking as cold as before. On the other hand, Alexander also returned as usual as if nothing had happened before.
“I wasn't so stupid as to bother coming just to piss you off. After all, there would be no one willing to pay me to do such a thing,” Alexander replied.
“You know what I want. So what's your plan?” ask Mr. Lenka.
“Didn't they always show off with ancestral heritage, great culture, pretend to look elegant or something?” Instead of answering, Alexander asked.
“Indeed.” Mr. Lenka nodded lightly.
“Then you just need to prove that you and your people are cultured enough.
They ridicule barbarian free hunters for binge-watching and less elegant, right? Then show them that you can have a formal party.
They think that free hunters can only eat and drink greedily regardless of quality, right? Then show them that you can eat and drink something more delicious, even more elegant.”
Hearing Alexander's remark, Mr. Lenka nodded with a serious expression. Compared to large families, ordinary people and free hunters often behave less elegantly and even tend to be barbaric. So they are often ridiculed for being less cultured, or things like that.
“Before, let me give you a little solution. I know that the relationship between the three big groups is not good, but at least you guys still greet each other kindly, right? Then have a party. Invite some higher-ups of the other two large groups, there are also some strong or medium-level groups that you can invite.
Create a formal party. Encourage them to cooperate. Although the relationship is not good, at least you should respect each other free hunters. Show free hunters can also do such formal things.
It may be a bit messy at the beginning, but there will definitely be an increase with the passage of time. The more you do it, the more you get used to it.
As for our cooperation ..”
Alexander put down a black box that he was carrying. A box that made Mr. Lenka curious from the beginning. When the box was opened, three ceramic bottles looked beautiful.
Mr. Lenka looked a little surprised when he saw the three bottles. He couldn't help but ask, “This?”
“Wine. Not a type of fermented berry, nor a fermented wine that is considered extraordinary by the big families.” Alexander smiled mysteriously.
The man then took out a bottle from the box. He then asked Mr. Lenka to take two small glasses. After that, the man opened the sealed bottle cap.
By the time the bottle cap opens, the sweet, soft, and refreshing aroma spreads. Mr. Lenka immediately gulped when he sniffed the aroma. Alexander then poured a little wine in each glass and then closed it again.
Alexander took a glass. He did not forget to lift his mask up a bit. After which, the man sniffed the scent of wine up close, only then took a slow sip. No hurry and looks pretty elegant.
“You can try it, Mr. Lenka,” Alexander said.
Mr. Lenka also imitated what Alexander did. But when he drank the wine, he was still a little surprised when he felt the strong taste of the wine. It felt quite strong, but he could still taste the sweetness. The aroma of the fruit mixed with several other ingredients made him feel very comfortable.
“This is really better than the wine that those people are showing off,” praise Mr. Lenka with an expression full of surprise.
Alexander raised his glass and said, “A party is incomplete without incredible wine, right?”
Mr. Lenka immediately understood what Alexander meant. He then replied, “So this is what you mean. However, that means only you can profit from the sale of wine to Cursed Lambs. That's not cooperation.”
“That's not entirely true, Mr. Lenka. I will sell you wine at a cheaper price. However, the better and the rarer the item, of course the more people appreciated it. So ...
You can entertain important guests with the wine. Of course, everyone gets limited portions. It can even be considered just a tasting. After they show a desire to get wine, you can sell it more expensive and take advantage.”
Hearing Alexander's reply made Mr. Lenka's eyes sparkle. He's feeling happy. Being a supplier of quality wine definitely improved his status. Not only among the free hunters, but also with those greedy nobles. Merely, Mr. Lenka's expression became dim after a while.
Alexander knew he was dealing with the right guy. Not only are people crazy about power, but they are also smart. The man poured wine for himself and Mr. Lenka, saying.
“You may think that the party must be a mess because people will assume you are looking for a business opportunity to sell wine. But you don't have to worry about that, Mr. Lenka. Wine is only a complement to the party and not the main event.
You know what hunters like us like? In addition to fragrant wine and good food to satisfy fatigue, of course ...”
Alexander put another box on the table and pushed it in front of Mr. Lenka. With a smile on his face, the man continued.
“Of course weapons.”
