Chapter 1009 Caught Off Guard

As usual, it’s not impossible to take Princess Analetta to the bonfire party. After all, she is half my own, has helped me, and is close to the leader of the goblin clan. However, she doesn’t know about the Moonlight Scepter yet. If she saw the Moonlight Scepter, would she reveal this matter to her sister?

What if the Queen also cares about this scepter?

Will the relationship that I have maintained with her change?

No, I don’t know about the mutation, but she will definitely care about the scepter. After all, it is an artifact with the power of the God of Creation. It is an existence that far surpasses magic weapons. Although the leader of the goblin clan said that she still can’t to its true power, but that doesn't mean it can't later.

To those in power, a threat is a threat, whether potential or present.

So, I must be prepared first.

After making up my mind, I asked Zach to accompany the little princess to the commercial street to wait for me, while I walked slowly and leisurely towards the adventurer base. It was called to withdraw money, but in fact, I quietly talked to the leader of the goblin clan.

After explaining everything, the leader of the goblin clan said that he would handle it carefully. After that, I called Dewey's assistant and withdrew some gold coins from her.

I took the gold coins from the adventurer base, put some of them into my pocket, took the remaining hundreds of gold coins in my hand, and hurried to the commercial street.

When we arrived at the butcher shop we often go to, Zach and the little princess had been waiting there for a long time. When they saw me coming, the little princess pointed to the top-quality beef and mutton on the cutting board and said excitedly with starry eyes: "Buy this, An Xiaoyi, Buy this, this meat is so delicious when grilled!”

As she spoke, her small waist twisted excitedly, looking like a newly formed snake demon.

I came closer, looked at the beef and mutton on the cutting board carefully for a while, then pinched my chin and nodded: "It is indeed good meat."

The boss smiled and said: "These are the top-quality beef and mutton that were just shipped today. How much do you want to buy?"

"Buy more, buy more~~~" the little princess ordered with starry eyes. Her waist twisted even more, which made me a little worried. She must not accidentally twist her waist.

I thought for a moment, determined the approximate number of people in my mind, estimated their appetite, and finally clapped my hands: "Give me twenty of each beef and mutton like this."

The shop owner's expression changed, and the smile froze on his face. He maintained a stiff expression for more than ten seconds, then shook his head and said in disbelief: "Sir, can you please say it again? You mean Twenty pounds of each kind?"

"Huh? I remember that elves have very keen hearing. Why did they still misunderstand what I said when they were so close?" I frowned in distress: "Is it because my pronunciation is not clear enough? "

So, I tried to slow down my speaking speed and repeated each word: "Give me twenty of each beef and mutton like this."

"Twenty heads each." The shop owner frowned slightly: "Sir, with all due respect, can you really finish eating such a large amount of beef and mutton?"

At this time, the little princess also said anxiously: "Yes, An Xiaoyi, can we finish eating so much meat?"

While she was talking anxiously, she pulled my arm hard and glared at me, indicating that she had something to say.

I squatted down and she whispered, "Although I have an extra guest, you shouldn't be so excited. There are forty cattle and sheep in total, and I can't eat that much!"

I felt ashamed: Please don’t be so narcissistic, it will make me feel uncomfortable.

"Also," the little princess continued, "we elves are very disgusted with things like extravagance and waste."

I said 'hmm' in response to her advice. I stood up and said to the shop owner: "Please give me twenty cattle and sheep. There is no need to worry about my extravagance. Although I am a human race, I am in Moonlight City." I still have a lot of friends, even a mere forty cattle and sheep are not a problem."

When the shop owner saw what I said, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, guest, please tell me your address, and I will ask the waiter to deliver it to you."

"No need." I refused his enthusiastic service: "It's just forty heads of beef and mutton. This buddy and I can carry it back."

As he spoke, he patted Zach on the shoulder, and Zach smiled and nodded in response.

The shop owner looked at us questioningly and asked again: "Do you really don't need help?"

I thought for a while and nodded: "If you really want to help, then help me pack the beef and mutton in bags and tie them together, making them stronger for us to carry."

"Okay, I understand." The shop owner smiled and said, "Please pay the bill first. The total is eighty-two gold coins."

The little princess covered her mouth with her little hands and said in surprise: "I need so much money."

I took out the money bag, counted eighty-two gold coins, and put them into the empty gold coin box aside. The boss also counted them again and made sure that the amount was OK. Then he ordered the butcher shop clerk to prepare beef and mutton.

I was watching a few guys packing beef and mutton when I felt someone pulling my arm. I lowered my head and it was the little princess.

I saw the little princess staring at my chest where I put the money bag with a pair of greedy eyes, and said with a smile: "An Xiaoyi, can I ask you a question?"

"What's the problem?" I asked.

"How do you treat your sister?"

"I don't have a sister."

"No?" She curled her lips, and then instantly recovered her smile: "No, it doesn't matter. I want to ask you, if you had a sister, would you be kind to her?"

"Well, it's definitely good for her."

"Then will you spend your money on her?" The little princess's eyes flashed.

I smiled slightly: "No."

"Why?"

"There is no reason." I spread my hands: "If I have a sister and she still wants to spend my money, there is only one way."

"What way?"

"She earns pocket money from me through her hard work."

"Tsk, that's really annoying," the little princess muttered in a low voice.

"Huh? What did you say?" I leaned over and asked her.

"No, it's nothing," the little princess replied with a smile.

After a while, she rolled her eyes and asked me again: "An Xiaoyi, I have another question for you."

"Tell me what the problem is."

"If your fiancée wanted to spend your money, would you spend it for her?"

"Isn't this nonsense?" I frowned and looked at her: "My fiancée is my future wife. Is there any difference between my money and their money?"

"Ah, so that's it." The little princess's eyes flashed with light, and she smiled instantly and said, "Xiaoyi, that."

Her voice suddenly became too sticky, which caught me off guard and shuddered: "What's the matter with you?"

"Are you still missing a fiancée?" She twisted her waist, trying to show off her flat figure: "If you are missing, do you think I am suitable?"
