Chapter 1316 Name
I seemed to have seen the Orc King's desperate pride before, but I was confused for a moment and couldn't remember when I had seen it.
"If you are not good at conspiracy, you can definitely ask someone who is good at conspiracy to be your prime minister." I said, "As long as the prime minister is loyal, you have no doubt that the day when Dashai City will win consecutive victories over Airui City is just around the corner."
"What you say makes sense," the orc king said, "I did do that, but, Xiaoyi, do you know why we still lose occasionally?"
"Why?"
"Because we orcs are pure in nature and don't like killing and torture. Even if I use scheming tribesmen, they are still not as good as some of the methods in Airui City. Therefore, I need someone who dares to attack and be ruthless."
His eyes were wide open, with anticipation and enthusiasm flashing in his eyes.
"That person couldn't be me," I said jokingly.
"You guessed it right," the orc king said, "It's you."
"Ah?!"
"You don't have to wonder, I have been observing you for a long time. In addition to being straightforward, you are also good at conspiracy and conspiracy, and you are extremely ruthless. You will not let go of almost anyone you classify as a mortal enemy, including their families. , even the most innocent baby," the orc king said: "To be honest, I would have been extremely disgusted by guys like you twenty years ago, but it is different now. I have become a monarch and command the entire town. Over the years, I have known the truth and cruelty of this world, so I understand you and appreciate you. Moreover, with your current status, you are indeed qualified to be my helper and help me move forward step by step in Sai City. How about it? , consider becoming my next prime minister, and I can give you generous treatment that you can't imagine!"
"Thank you for your appreciation," I said, "forgive me for being unable to obey."
As the supreme leader of Dashai City, there is not much difference between being rejected on the spot and being slapped in the face.
I thought the Beastman King would be angry, but he wasn't. He just stared at me feverishly and said, "Why, give me a reason."
"Because I am born uninhibited and love freedom~"
"speak English!"
"Ahem, it's actually like this," I said, "As for me, I prefer a free and comfortable life. Basically, you can see me wherever I feel comfortable and at ease. Although the Prime Minister I have a high position and great authority, but with all due respect, I don’t like the kind of life where I go to court every day and report to meetings. What’s the difference between that kind of life and a hamster in a cage?”
"Well," the orc king sighed, holding his chin and thinking. After thinking for a while, he said, "What if it's just in name?"
"nominal?"
"It's just like your title as an elder from outside the Moonlight City. When you are really needed, you just show up. At other times, it's up to you."
"Can I get paid?" I asked with immediate interest.
"This is natural," the orc king said: "The titular prime minister is also the prime minister. Our city of Dasai is rich in materials, resources, and the treasury is full. It will not be short of your salary."
"That's enough," I said hehey, "I'll do it."
Don't take advantage of me, bastard!
I like this kind of nominal job that can make money and is free at the same time!
While I was secretly happy, a question suddenly flew into my mind, cooling down my joy and excitement - there are so many ruthless humans, why is he looking for me? Also, when did he start paying attention to me?
I put away the stiff smile on my face and said doubtfully: "Mr. Orc King, please forgive me for asking you a few questions."
"explain."
"I am cruel, I know this, but among the human race, there are many people as cruel as me, and some are even far better than me. Why do you want me to be your prime minister? I can't understand this. .”
"I asked you to be the prime minister because I have observed you for a long time and found that you have no rejection of the orcs. Apart from you, I have never seen any human who does not look at our people through colored glasses."
"That's it." I nodded: "I understand the first question, and there is another question. Since you said you have been observing me for a long time, it means that I have attracted your attention a long time ago. Then I want to know why you pay attention. Come to me, is there any special factor in this?"
The Beastman King shook his head, smiled mysteriously, and said: "I can't answer this question, but I can tell you clearly that all along, I have no intention of harming you, and I am just observing you as a bystander. , nothing more.”
Okay, there is not much difference between answering the second question and not answering it.
Anyway, since the Orc King refused to answer, he must have his own difficulties. It is not a good behavior to dig into other people's difficulties, although it is really refreshing to do so.
The whistle sounded at the end of the game, and the Legion of Roses won the game with a tragic result that exhausted more than half of its members.
As for the people of the Iron Wolf Guild, all of them were too tired to get up.
The wounds were quickly healed, and the tired ones were immediately taken back to their rooms on stretchers to rest.
Before the Orc King got up and left, he told me to come with him.
I was puzzled, so he said: "In a moment, you can follow me to express condolences to these future pillars of Dashai City, and at the same time, I can announce your identity."
Although I really wanted to go home and lie down staring at the ceiling in a daze, I agreed to the Orc King's request and went with him.
When I passed by the Elf Queen, her eyes kept wandering between me and the Orc King, and she asked me questions with doubtful eyes. I spread my hands, indicating that it was not the right time to answer her questions.
After that, the Orc King and I went to the most luxurious hotel in Balan City. Before entering, the Orc King smiled at me and said, "I didn't expect that you would make a lot of money from me on your first day as prime minister."
Not surprisingly, he must have already known that this hotel was the property of Master Dewey, and also knew about the relationship between Master Dewey and me, so he deliberately teased me about it.
Sighing, I said: "This place is my godfather's property. I will give him all the money I earn. I won't get a penny from it."
"I asked you to say this," the orc king said: "Your godfather has no heirs except you. When he gets older and retires behind the scenes, won't all these assets belong to you!"
"My godfather is now strong and healthy, and I don't want to take over the complicated family business too early. As for the future of those assets, I am not interested at all. I just want to live well today and live well now, and that's enough. "
"Not bad." The Beastman King laughed and said, "It's the same as my idea back then, carpe diem, very good, I like it very much."
With that said, we entered the gate and took the escalator to the top floor. When we opened the door, the president of the Rose Legion and contestants of Dashai City, and the president and contestants of the Iron Wolf Guild were already waiting there. They talked to each other in low voices. When they saw the Orc King coming, they immediately sat upright and solemnly, and the hall fell into silence for a moment.
