Chapter 2545 Choice

The airship traveled slowly, spending a day and night before finally arriving at the capital of Moonlight City.

After exiting the hatch and walking down the floating ladder, there were already a group of adventurers from the Rose Legion waiting outside the gate of the airship base.

They first saluted me, and then produced a joint letter from their two Majesties, taking over the John Davis family from my hands.

After receiving the order, I happily accepted the order and walked side by side towards the inner city with the leader.

On the way, I asked her about the current situation in Moonlight City, and the team leader respectfully answered me: "Everything is normal."

"Normal is good." I nodded easily: "Normal is better than anything else."

The team leader covered his mouth and smiled: "Sir, you are really boring. Don't you want good things to happen to Moonlight City?"

I shook my head and said sincerely: "The old proverb goes, 'good fortune and misfortune depend on each other.' When good things come, there will naturally be bad things lurking around. Instead of this, it's better to be ordinary."

The team leader frowned in thought. After a few seconds, he nodded thoughtfully: "What you said makes sense."

I looked deeply into her eyes and asked tentatively: "Do you have a different opinion?"

The team leader turned his head, looked at me for a few seconds, and smiled: "Yes, sir."

Seeing her being so outspoken, I immediately became interested and said with a smile, "Tell me about it."

She did not answer the question directly, but asked indirectly, "Adults think that a mediocre life is the right way. Can I understand this?"

"Can."

"Then, sir, please tell me, why do you want to become an adventurer because you long for a plain life?"

"For money," I said calmly.

"But you are not short of money, are you?" She smiled slyly like a little fox.

"Yes" I nodded: "I'm not short of money."

"Since there is no shortage of money to spend, it must not be for money, so what is it for?"

After listening to her question, I suddenly fell into deep thought: Yes, I still can't give up the career of adventurer, and why?

I used to choose to become an adventurer just to make a living.

However, after Master Dewey recognized me as his adopted son and even established me as his sole successor, money was no longer a problem for me.

But after the problem was solved, I still couldn't let go of the adventurer industry. Why?

Habit? Nostalgic? Reluctant to give up? Or is it just a reminder of the past life?

Um.

"It's protection, brat."

Odachi's voice suddenly sounded in his mind: "It's to protect your family, your friends, and to maintain your justice. I mean, you brat, you've already thought so in your heart. Why don't you tell the truth?" What? Are you afraid of being laughed at by others? Are other people's opinions really that important?"

"I"

"You brat, if you are always so timid, perfunctory and not honest, one day you will lose everything."

"Really, what you said is too harsh," I complained, rubbing the bridge of my nose.

"Heavy? Haha" Odachi said disdainfully: "I'm just stating the facts."

After a slight hesitation, I smiled and confessed: "For protection."

"But as an adult, if you want to protect your family, there is absolutely no need to take action personally, right?"

The leader asked: "Then why do you continue to be an adventurer?"

"Because. Because I want to protect it with my own hands."

The team leader smiled: "Sir, please forgive me for being offended. I think you are not just trying to protect your family with your own hands. More importantly, you love adventure as much as you love your family. I guess Is it right?"

"Yeah, that's right."

"Haha, what do you mean, sir, you are really dishonest. You are completely different from the rumored person."

The leader laughed heartily.

She is really a completely different elf from others!

I thought to myself.

"May I have your name?"

"Huh?" The leader suddenly stopped laughing. She covered her mouth tightly with her hands and said nervously: "Sir, I'm not laughing at you. I just love to laugh. Don't be angry. I, I want to You can’t apologize.”

After that, he saluted me in a decent manner.

"I just suddenly wanted to know your name, it doesn't matter whether I'm angry or not."

She looked at it carefully for a while and made sure I wasn't angry. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "My name is Abel Fantine."

"Abel Fountain? Well, that's a good name. I remember it."

"Ah! Sir, why are you remembering my name? Oh, sir, I know I was wrong. Please don't complain to His Majesty!"

She once again launched an offensive to beg me for mercy.

I tensed up and said nothing.

So along the way, she kept begging in a low voice, and her clear voice was like a baby bird begging for food.

When I arrived at the entrance of the palace, my sullen face finally couldn't bear it anymore and instantly turned into a cheerful smile and hearty laughter.

Seeing my smile, Abel Fountain suddenly realized that she had been fooled. She pointed at me and said angrily: "My lord, you have gone too far! You actually made fun of me!"

I waved my hand and entered the palace happily.

Still in the back garden, I sat on the oval stone bench and reported the results of my trip to the two majesties.

Although two protons were not brought back together, the Fairy Queen still nodded with satisfaction, and the Elf Queen on the side smiled and told me the truth.

It turns out that after the deductions of the two queens, it was already a surprise to be able to bring back half of John Davis's family. After all, with the Carter family's character, even if they are discarded chess pieces, they must not be handed over to outsiders. in hand.

"Your Majesty clearly knows that there is indeed a problem in Airui City, and it is a big problem."

Then, I told the two majesties about the financial crisis and talent crisis facing Airui City.

"I know about the financial crisis, but I didn't expect it to be so serious." The Fairy Queen said with a smile: "Anasta, can you help me analyze whether this is a good opportunity to expand our territory?"

What? !

Expand territory? !

What is the Fairy Queen doing? Could it be that they wanted to use troops against Airui City while it was weak?

The Elf Queen pondered for a moment, shook her head and said, "I don't think this is a good time to expand the territory."

"Oh?" The Fairy Queen picked up the black tea, took a sip, and murmured, "Why is this?"

"There are two reasons," the Elf Queen said: "First, the centipede is dead but not stiff. Moreover, Airui City is just economically weak and slightly weak. Once we take advantage of the situation and attack, it is likely to arouse people's resistance, and it is very likely that It is actually a good thing for Ai Rui City to unite the originally loose people's hearts. Secondly, according to Carter Horton's habits, he will never leave no backup plan. If he takes advantage of the situation to counterattack, not only cannot he If we capture Airui City, we may suffer backlash.”
