The Great Demon King

Chapter 86 "New efforts "

Han Shuo, Phoebe, and Candice walked into the dirty house and ran downstairs. It was actually very clean and tidy inside, with some decorations that could even be called luxurious. To think that it was just dirty and broken on the outside, but quite luxurious on the inside.

After entering the house, Candice suddenly closed the door tightly, letting out a thumping sound that she could not hide. The sword in his hand, he blocked the exit.

“Candice, you don't need to be careful. My dear uncle does not know martial arts or magic, he will not be able to escape this time. “Phoebe mask has been removed and she displays amazing features. He sat casually carelessly, coldly staring at a room with its door open.

Han Shuo inspected his surroundings and observed using a real demon. When he made sure that there were no suspicious characters around him, he then poured a cup of warm water and took two greedy gulps.

Grover walked out of the room, through the open door, with a face full of annoyance. He let go of a terrible laugh and looked at Phoebe, “Good nephew, dear nephew. Thinking that you've been hiding your powers all along. Has Cara been taken by you? ”

Phoebe started and looked at Grover in surprise. He shook his head, “No, I just found this place.”

“Let the Way of life, I will give you everything you want, including my life.” Grover knew it would be difficult for him to escape death with the present circumstances, and let everything pass.

“Sorry, Cara is not in my hands. If my guess is correct, Grandpa Andrew has already sent men here and he's been taken by them. I have no authority to decide whether he lives or dies, “Phoebe shook her head and looked at Grover with a cold gaze. He asked again, “Did you kill my father?”

“Yes, I poisoned him. Since you already know everything, I don't need to hide any further. What else do you want to know? “Grover's face was made of wood as he nodded stiffly.

Inhaling deeply, Han Shuo could clearly feel suppressed anger surging from Phoebe. Phoebe slowly stood up and looked at Han Shuo and Candice, “I want to speak in person with my good uncle. Bryan, will you guys go outside and wait for me? ”

Nodding, Han Shuo put the teacup in his hand down and left with Candice, walking towards the entrance of the distant alley.

“Hey, can I ask you something?” Candice continued to assess Han Shuo as they left the house and finally could not help but ask after a while.

Han Shuo had been pondering the Duke's background with his head lowered when he heard Candice's question. He raised his head and looked at her in confusion.

As a girl, Candice's height was slightly higher than that of ordinary girls. His skin was not pale, but rather the coppertone of someone who had spent many years in the sun. His body is quite fit and muscular, and************ looks like it's about to explode out of it. His forehead is chewy and full of explosive power. He looked hard to handle like a feisty mare.

“What do you want to know?” Han Shuo was not friendly towards Candice, but he did not hate her either.

“How can you find killer movements so clearly, like you see everything with your own eyes?” A great sense of curiosity permeated his face as he looked at Han Shuo with every attractive expression.

“There is a magic called ‘Mata Langit’, you must have heard of it? My method is similar to that one. Of course there are some differences, but I can't tell you the exact details! “Han Shuo glanced at him and said faintly.

“Two archmage can't detect interference from your method. It's breathtaking. Can you give us this method? If our mercenary band knew of this method, it would greatly increase the success rate of our mission. We are willing to offer a great gift for this. ”

“I've heard that you are a trader, You can mention the price. We can negotiate no matter how high it is. Other forms of payment will work as well as long as our mercenary band can do it. ”Candice looked at Han Shuo with sparkling eyes and discussed very sincerely with him.

Shaking his head firmly, Han Shuo rejected him firmly. “I'm sorry, there are some things I won't sell. I'm sorry, Miss Candice. ”

“Then will you join our Battlefire mercenary band? As the vice-captain of the band, I can directly approve your application. With your strength, you will definitely do a great deed if you join us. “Candice seemed to know that Han Shuo would reject her and was not at all discouraged. Instead, he invited her to join them and become a member.

“Sorry, I didn't plan for a while,” Han Shuo refused politely again.

“Alright, when you plan, please remember to come find us, Battlefire mercenary band, when you want. I'll welcome you with open arms. “Candice promises in earnest.

“Not much. Oh, right, Phoebe, what about Grover? ”Candice pouted a little awkwardly when she asked Phoebe.

“He killed himself just now. I've got what I want from him, we can go now. “Phoebe's expression was strange when she looked at Candice.

“Then it should have nothing to do with me after this. Can I go now? ”Han Shuo suddenly spoke when he saw the two talking.

Phoebe once again focused her beautiful eyes on Han Shuo and looked at him stupidly, then said to Candice, “Candice, your two men from the mercenary band succeeded. Go contact them first and see if there are any other survivors on the broken page. ”

Candice looked at Phoebe and Han Shuo with ambiguous expressions and showed an understanding smile. He nodded at Phoebe and walked with large strides.

“Bryan, will you take a walk with me?” Phoebe blushed after seeing Candice's meaningful gaze and slowly returned to normal just after she left. He looked at Han Shuo with a hopeful face.

“Sure, where do you want to go?” Han Shuo and he thought to themselves.

“Let's walk around the southern district. I think the Boozt Merchant Guild is no longer a threat to me anymore. ”

Han Shuo did not say much as accompanying the beautiful Phoebe walked slowly on the dirty streets. There were people who had clearly fallen on hard times in the streets and they glanced at the richly dressed Han Shuo and Phoebe.

“In this world, our Guild actually does not have much status. Even though the merchant got the gold, our status was basically the same as that of ordinary citizens. “Phoebe's voice was far away as she said introspectively to Han Shuo by her side.

“Miss Phoebe, You don't see anyone else's gaze on you. They were full of admiration and jealousy. For them, your current life is what they dream of, what else are you dissatisfied with? ”

“Heh heh, we almost died yesterday. They could not even imagine a life filled with unknown dangers. Maybe they are worried about living our daily lives, but we are worried about our lives. I wonder who admires whom! ”Phoebe sighed lowly.

He suddenly stopped walking and focused his gaze on Han Shuo. “Bryan, with your ability, you will definitely climb quite high as long as you want to work hard. I was thinking of asking you to manage the Guild with Me, but I've thought about it clearly. I thought the small Boozt Merchant Guild would not be enough to hold you back. You must have a bigger sky. Bryan, have you thought about how you should live in the future? ”

Han Shuo started off as he recalled his status. Even though he had left the slave label a duty, he was still a student of the Academy. With his status, even if he quickly graduated from the Academy, there was still no name. Of course, this was not the life he wanted, but only that Han Shuo had no other plans for now.

“High power and position are goals you should achieve. As much as the money the merchant had, he was still a small character under the mercy of others. Only those who have a well-known reputation and outstanding position have the right to control and determine the lives of others. You have to be one of those people! ”The alluring light shone through Phoebe's beautiful eyes as she stared straight at Han Shuo, her voice full of persuasion.

His mind had never been so agitated before. Han Shuo had thought about these things before, but it had never been as clear as it was at the moment. Since he was lucky enough to be reborn, he had to enjoy everything in this life without any objections. Why did he not use the power available to him? Under Phoebe's persuasion, Han Shuo's mindset of not wanting to remain normal slowly began to burn and he became full of resolution.

After a while, Han Shuo took a deep breath and nodded, saying lowly, “I see your point, but my chance doesn't seem to have arrived yet.”

A brilliant smile spread across his face, Phoebe seemed to have been waiting for these words. When he heard Han Shuo's words, he immediately looked at Han Shuo and said, “You're wrong, the opportunity is always there. The fastest way to gain power and status is to achieve meritorious action in war. The Empire is never peaceful, and our battles with neighboring countries never stop. I think a big war is going to break out in the near future. I think you should get involved. As your good friend, I'm willing to help you and do all I can to help you. ”

“I appreciate your goodwill, but I want to get everything I deserve through My own hands.” Han Shuo said firmly to Phoebe, paused for a moment and then said again, “Miss Phoebe, please prepare the rations I need. I'll be coming by the Guild in a few days to pick them up. I think we will have many opportunities to work together in the future. ”

“Then so be it, I have already said everything that needs to be said and will not need you to accompany me any further on this random trip. I believe that with your abilities, you will soon stand out in the kingdom. Don't forget that I am your friend then, “Phoebe winks at Han Shuo and says cutely.

“Heh heh, your words today have greatly inspired Me, I will remember them! Farewell Miss Phoebe, don't forget my ration! “Han Shuo smiled and suddenly changed direction, heading towards the northern part of the city.

Phoebe pouted furiously after a while had passed since Han Shuo left, she said with a loud voice that only she could hear. “Damn it, you only care about your rations!”
