Disguising as the City Lord’s daughter and heading into the Wraith realm, what an exciting prospect that is.
Not to ntion an abundance of rewards.
This is a deal that I can’t refuse!
“Then, to make one last thing clear, I won’t really be getting married to so wraith?” Crow continued sending his voice.
Gu Qing Shan shrugged: “Of course, that person—- erm, the City Lord’s daughter said that your disguising technique can be dispelled any ti you wish; I trust that after it had been undone, no wraith would still want to marry you”
Both of them fell silent.
Crow reached his hand to stroke his face and said with concern: “If a female wraith were to take a liking to ...”
“Hm, that will be a huge issue” Gu Qing Shan agreed.
“All in all, this is a very dangerous matter, we need to go see her and discuss this more carefully” Gu Qing Shan continued.
“Hm, let’s go” Crow replied.
At this point, the n from before brought their won back towards them.
“I just rembered, although you’ve lost all your powers, you have definitely accumulated quite a bit of wealth over the years” one of them comnted.
Crow replied: “That’s right, I’m very rich”
“You can simply retire and live out the rest of your life in Void City” another one of them added.
“That’s true” Crow also agreed.
The n exchanged glances, slowly grinning.
A gust of wind blew through the air.
All of them suddenly beca headless bodies.
The woman scread in panic and fled back into the bar.
Crow looked at the corpses on the ground, then at Gu Qing Shan.
“I’m moved, but killing them would just lower our status” Crow said.
“I just happened to check the wanted list earlier, they were slave traffickers” Gu Qing Shan replied.
“In this apocalyptic era, manpower and physical labor are still required everywhere, their existence in Void City was also thanks to the tacit agreent of the bigshots y’know” Crow told him.
“Crow, I’ve never liked to kill, unless there’s a proper reason” Gu Qing Shan replied.
Crow paused, then said with a solemn tone: “Dragon King, you’re now a Titled class Hitman, it should cost a lot to make you act even a single ti, these small fries aren’t even worth you moving a pinky finger”
“All etings are predestined; a missed opportunity is a regretful occasion” Gu Qing Shan answered.
He took out his Hitman dal and spoke a few words.
Very quickly, a man and a woman flew in from afar, both staff mbers of the Hitman Guild.
One of them was the girl who acted as Gu Qing Shan’s receptionist, Qin.
“Your grace, Dragon King. How may we help you?” she smiled and said.
Gu Qing Shan pointed at the ground and said: “I just got promoted to Titled Hitman today, so turn these slave traffickers in for their bounty and get a round of drinks for everyone, my treat”
The two staff mbers’ eyes practically glowed as they heard that.
The male staff mber said: “Dragon King sir, you truly are—-”
“Generous” Qin praised.
While they were smiling, they took care of the scene swiftly and professionally.
Crow shook his head and sighed: “Those guys definitely still have companions who’ll co to you looking for trouble...”
Gu Qing Shan was surprised: “Even after getting beat up, you’re still making predictions for them?”
Crow snapped out it up and quickly changed his words, following up on his previous statents: “But so of them truly are pathetically weak”
A mont later, so of the girls who fled earlier led a group of people out from the bar.
“It was them!”
The woman called Lize pointed at Crow and Gu Qing Shan.
Everyone turned towards them.
Gu Qing Shan turned to Qin and asked: “It’s a lot of trouble to check using my dal, can you take a look and see for which one of them is on the wanted list?”
Qin glanced over them and replied: “They’re part of the sa gang, so they’re all on the wanted list, just that no one had ever killed them——— their existence had received tacit understanding from the bigshots”
Gu Qing Shan grinned.
“Seems like there’s still a bit of money to be made” he muttered.
“Oy——”
The leader on the other side only managed to utter a single word before his head vanished.
A light breeze.
Every slave trafficker on the wanted list had turned into headless bodies.
An autumn water-like clear blue steel sword hovered in mid-air, drawing a graceful arc, seemingly unsatisfied.
“A Titled Hitman killing slave traffickers, that’s like using a cleaver to chop a fly” Crow shook his head again.
“Your dinner tonight will be on as well” Gu Qing Shan told Qin.
“Understood, that should be enough as well” Qin smiled and replied.
She took a close look at this evil creature again.
——-this is a very impressive Archfiend.
When he first joined the Guild, I was afraid that evil creatures who liked to deceive people would cause chaos in the Guild.
But in the end, not only did he save once, but he had also beco promoted to Titled Hitman at an unbelievable speed.
He’s renowned across the void.
I wonder... if my species allows marriage with evil creatures.
I’ll check it right away when I return.
Qin silently thought.
Crow suddenly made another statent: “Ah, I forgot earlier but they do have a boss, he’s quite strong though”
Gu Qing Shan stared at him.
Crow was a bit embarrassed: “Sorry, when the premonition cos, I can’t stop it”
A thunderous shout resounded from inside the bar:
「 WHO WAS IT THAT KILLED MY N!? 」
The door slamd open again as a man whose body was full of tattoos ca out.
Just as he stood facing Gu Qing Shan and Crow, his chest was pierced through by a thin, razor-sharp rapier.
「 Ah... 」the man only managed to cough a few tis before he fell and died.
Qin looked at the corpse and reported: “Captain of the Golden Slavers, they mostly sell won and children from the various races, frequently providing high-quality slaves for many bigshots, so they were allowed to remain in Void City”
Crow pulled his rapier back and asked: “This guy is worth quite a bit then, how should we deal with him?”
Gu Qing Shan pondered: “Other than those who support slavery, are there any forces in Void City that aid the weak?”
Crow replied: “That would be the Splendor Saint Church——- those angels of the church might be braindead, but they’re at least trustworthy then it cos to aiding the weak and bullied”
Gu Qing Shan then: “Qin, donate this guy’s bounty to the Splendor Saint Church, tell them that it’s specifically for the sake of their relief efforts”
“Understood, Dragon King sir” Qin replied.
“——-Wait!”
Crow turned around.
Lize trembled as she looked at him, muttering: “You—— didn’t you already lose your powers?”
Crow paused a bit, frowning: “That’s right, I did lose my powers”
“Then how did you kill them? Were you lying to before?” Lize questioned.
“I... was just joking”
“Uooo... uooo..., I don’t care, you emotional fraud!”
Lize ran over and fell into Crow’s embrace.
Out of habit, Crow hugged her.
“Our relationship is already broken off, even if you get my body, you won’t gain my heart” Crow sighed.
“I don’t care, I still love you” Lize insisted.
Crow looked at Gu Qing Shan, troubled.
Gu Qing Shan could kill without issues, but he really didn’t know how to resolve this matter either.
Suddenly, a solemn male voice declared:
“By the na of the Holy Father, I hereby express gratitude to his grace Dragon King’s donation, and also make the following judgent towards his grace Crow’s marriage: You two are unsuitable”
As everyone turned towards the voice, they saw a handso and graceful man standing at the road intersection.
A shining halo that gave off gentle light hovered above his head.
