Chapter 1109 Pretending to Be Stupid

Dewey's condition is obvious to all. He couldn't straighten his back before, but now he can walk like flying.

I nodded and said, "Then let Rafael stay."

Dewey approved of this proposal.

I thought about it and asked Dewey, "What are you going to do with his daughter?"

"It depends on what kind of life she wants to live," Dewey said, "I won't let her go to Airei City anyway."

"That's right. It's a chaotic place right now. A little girl may suffer misfortune. Then Raphael will also hate us."

Dewey nodded: "Besides, I think the little girl doesn't like staying in Fort Vicky. It's right to think about it. At the age of a flower, she is bored underground every day. It's impossible for her to like her."

"Otherwise, you can let her come back to Moonlight City with me, or send her to Dashai City. I have people in both places."

Dewey thought for a moment and said, "That's fine. Promises must always be carried out. With you taking care of her, this little girl's life will be very prosperous. So I'll leave this matter to you."

"Yes" I nodded.

After dinner, I took Rafael and little Betty to a room.

After we sat down respectively, I asked Raphael: "What are your plans for Little Betty?"

Raphael looked embarrassed and said nothing. Little Betty hugged her father's arm tightly and said nothing, but everyone could see the look in his eyes, showing that he was reluctant to leave his father.

"You can't ask her to stay with you in Wychburg for the rest of your life."

Raphael opened his mouth, but hesitated, and there was a hint of confusion in his expression.

Little Betty had already hid behind her father, only looking at me with her big eyes.

I sighed and said, "Since you have no idea, I have come up with a way for you. Do you want to hear it?"

Raphael responded.

"We definitely can't stay in Fort Vicky any longer," I said. "There is an academy here, but it's not suitable for human children to grow up. I have three options for you now. First, little Betty doesn't have to leave you, but she will stay with you for the rest of her life." She can only live in Fort Vicky; secondly, I will take her to Moonlight City and send her to the Elf Academy; thirdly, I will send her to Dashay City and ask someone I know to help take care of her. If she wants to study, she can be sent to the Academy. Dasha City College.”

"This" Raphael turned his head, pulled little Betty out from behind, and said, "Betty, which one do you like?"

Little Betty thought for a while and shook her head vigorously. It seemed that the three situations were not to her liking.

Raphael looked at me in embarrassment, and I spread my hands: "I'm sorry, I can only offer you three options. I'm busy with personal matters these days, and I won't be leaving Vicksburg for the time being. Which option have you decided on? Come to me. After these few days of work, I will leave here. By then, you will only have the first option left."

After that, I stood up and walked out the door. When I reached the door, I suddenly remembered a few words, so I held on to the door frame and added: "I have told you before, no matter what happens, there is a price." Yes, the price for you is the loss of freedom, and the same goes for your daughter, but apart from freedom, there are actually many wonderful things to enjoy in life, right?"

As soon as I left the room, a waiter came to me and said that Princess Aurora wanted to see me.

Following the waiter, they came to a relatively quiet courtyard in the palace. Princess Aurora was wearing a long dress and was sitting on a stone bench in the courtyard in a daze.

I stepped forward and said, "Hello, Princess."

Princess Aurora stood up hurriedly, sent the waiter away, and pulled me to sit down face to face. She looked slightly red and said, "Actually, you don't need to call me that, just call me Aurora."

"That would break etiquette, Princess," I said calmly.

"Vitchburg has long lost the etiquette to restrain you." Princess Aurora smiled and said: "Let me tell you, the real leader of Fort Vicky is not Uncle Goblin King, nor my father, but your godfather, Dewey. Grandmaster."

"Even so, you still have to have the proper etiquette, Princess."

Seeing that I was so stubborn, Princess Aurora stopped arguing about the terminology. After a moment of silence, she said, "Actually, the main reason I came to see you this time is to thank you."

"Thank me for what?" I asked confused.

"Thank you for saving Mi Lulu, and..." Her cheeks were slightly red and her voice was like a mosquito: "That box of delicious beef jerky."

"Forget it about Mi Lulu. She was rescued by a local pastor and has nothing to do with me. As for the beef jerky," I said 'hmm' and said, "I accept this thank you."

"No" Princess Aurora shook her head and said, "You did save Mi Lulu. She has already told me that during the last battle, she was attacked several times and you sent people to protect her."

"If I send someone to protect her, it must be because the person who protects her is capable. This has nothing to do with me." I spread my hands and said, "If you really want to say thank you, just say so to the two people who protected Mi Lulu. I can help call them together."

"This" Princess Aurora was stunned and said, "That's not necessary."

"Oh, since you said it's unnecessary, then I won't call them here." I curled my lips: "Speaking of which, it's really difficult to call both of them, especially the assassin who protects Mi Lulu. He has returned to Moonlight City now."

Princess Aurora looked at me in awe for a while, then suddenly said: "Speaking of which, you have saved me twice, and I haven't thanked you properly yet."

I scratched my head: "It is only natural that a hero saves a beautiful woman. I don't think there is any need to say thank you."

"But my dwarves don't like to owe favors to others."

"Well, let's use money to offset favors. You can give me a lot of money, hehe," I said with a sly smile.

"Money?" Princess Aurora was stunned for a moment: "Your godfather is the richest man in Zephyr Continent. Isn't that enough for you to spend?"

"That's true," I said, "but after all, the money belongs to him. I can't help but ask him for it every time."

With a puff, Princess Aurora covered her mouth and smiled, her cheeks were slightly red, and her smile was as bright as a flower.

I was so stunned by her laughter that I couldn't help but said, "Why are you laughing?"

"I think you are so interesting." After laughing for a while, she stopped, reached out and patted her plump breasts, and said, "But I don't have much money, and even if I use money as payment, I'm afraid I won't be able to repay the life-saving work." Grace"

At this point, her voice became like a mosquito buzzing again, and her cheeks turned even redder.

Even if it is a piece of wood, he will almost understand what Princess Aurora means.

I really don’t understand what advantages I have that can make the beloved princess favor me. Moreover, I am also slightly resistant to princesses. It’s not that I am afraid of being too high-spirited, but I just feel uncomfortable staying with the princess. There is a kind of status oppression, and we can't stay together casually, let alone petty tricks like taking advantage of others.

Even so, it is always troublesome to refuse the princess, and there is no chance that the princess will resent her, so I had to look blank and pretend to be stupid.
