Minori's voice fell into everyone's ears, making the already quiet hall even quieter.
Lakyus and the others looked at Minori with puzzlement and surprise.
Princess Renner, on the other hand, did not show any disappointment. She still nodded politely, but her eyes dimmed a lot.
"Why?"
Suddenly, a somewhat excited voice broke the atmosphere.
Climb's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but take a step forward, clenching his fists and shouting loudly, "Clearly, you can help more people... why."
When he said the last three words, Climb noticed that everyone was looking at him, realizing his slip of the tongue.
In such a setting, subordinates should not express any opinions, just like Miss Lakyus, whose status was far higher than his, had only stood behind Princess Renner from beginning to end without saying a word.
"I'm sorry."
Climb's cheeks flushed, and he bowed deeply.
"He is Climb, a very good child. Please don't mind him, Lord Minori," Lakyus said, retracting the surprised look on her face.
"It is my poor guidance," Princess Renner also said apologetically.
Minori looked at Climb, smiled, and said, "No, Her Highness has taught him very well. He is a very upright person."
"Can you explain the reason?"
Princess Renner placed her hands on her legs covered by her long skirt, sat upright, and asked curiously.
"First, not to mention the issue of raw materials, with my personal ability, I cannot provide the potion supply for thousands or even tens of thousands of troops, and it is still a long-term cooperation."
"Second, I am not short of money."
"Third, as an adventurer, according to the guild's regulations, I cannot intervene in wars between countries. Although I am not sure whether assisting with potions counts as intervention, I hate trouble."
Minori glanced at Lakyus as he said this, leaned back, and slowly opened his mouth softly.
The three reasons left everyone speechless for a moment. Although they were not very sufficient, they were indeed undeniable.
"Hahaha."
Gagaran suddenly burst into hearty laughter, her sharp eyes narrowed as she stared at Minori:
"I knew it, you two are so naive."
Lakyus turned her head, "Gagaran."
"Got it, boss," Gagaran chuckled, put away her gaze, and leaned back on the sofa again.
Lakyus pursed her lips. She felt that this matter could actually be discussed. She was just about to speak when...
Princess Renner had already raised her slender arm and pressed it on Lakyus's palm, a bright smile on her fair face: "It's okay, many of my previous proposals have also been rejected."
Minori glanced at Lakyus and the two, sneering in his heart.
Lakyus was completely under Princess Renner's thumb.
However.
What exactly is Princess Renner's purpose?
Minori was very sure that Princess Renner didn't care whether the previous proposal was successful or not.
"Lord Minori, I have a small private matter about the Regeneration Potion that I would like to ask you about," Princess Renner said in a slightly tangled expression, speaking softly.
Minori: "Your Highness, please speak."
"Climb, I'm sorry to trouble you."
"This is what I should do, Your Highness." After a brief conversation, Climb quickly left.
This also made Lakyus feel puzzled, obviously, this so-called small matter, apart from the first matter, had not been disclosed to Lakyus in advance.
"I often hear Lakyus talk about her adventure experiences."
"Sometimes I also dream of being under the stars in grasslands and jungles, but as a princess, I cannot leave the palace."
Princess Renner picked up the black tea on the table, her bright red lips slightly parted, took a sip, and gently shook the finger holding the handle, and said gently:
"Lord Minori knows Leinas, and should have some extraordinary adventure experiences in the Bahas Empire, right?"
A flash of light flashed in Minori's eyes, and he shook his head calmly.
"The life of an adventurer may not be as wonderful as the princess imagines."
"I did experience some interesting things in the Bahas Empire. Speaking of which, some of the Bahas Empire's policies are somewhat similar to some of Her Highness's proposals."
Minori seemed to have remembered something, and pretended to be puzzled.
Princess Renner paused the finger holding the handle, showing a surprised look: "Is that so? That King Gilgenif is said to be a very talented monarch."
"If there are similarities, perhaps merchants or adventurers in the kingdom passed the proposal over."
Minori seemed to agree and nodded, then said something somewhat inexplicable: "That monarch doesn't seem to have a legal wife yet."
Although the Bloody Emperor currently has a large number of concubines, none of them are legal wives, not only now, but even three years later.
Because the reforms initiated by the Bloody Emperor are not suitable for marrying a legal wife in the country, which means that the other party can only choose a woman with a suitable identity from abroad to marry.
These words seemed to be just a fun fact, or unimportant, in the eyes of the others present.
However!
Princess Renner's eyes trembled slightly, and she subconsciously looked up at Minori, meeting his eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
He noticed!
The thought flashed through Princess Renner's mind, and after a moment of astonishment, there was a heartfelt, indescribable joy.
Minori's words were actually just a guess, but when he saw Princess Renner looking at him, he knew he was right.
Princess Renner deliberately let some of her proposals fall into the hands of the Empire. Even if the thoughts are more alien, at some point, there must be a certain purpose!
The following conversation became simpler.
Lakyus interjected a few words from time to time, and the three people's brief words made the atmosphere in the hall become much more peaceful again.
At this moment.
Evileye, who had been silent and seemed to have a low presence, frowned behind her mask, her gaze looking at Minori and Princess Renner through the gaps in the mask.
Out of some kind of intuition.
She always felt that there was some kind of hidden conversation between the two, and their leader was completely in the dark.
Before long.
Climb, who had left, walked into the hall with two figures wearing masks and maid outfits.
Judging from their figures and attire, they should be maids from Princess Renner's side.
Everyone looked at this scene with some doubts.
Princess Renner said nothing, just stood up gently, reached out and picked up the Regeneration Potion that was just placed on the table, and walked towards the two maids.
Under everyone's gaze.
Princess Renner carefully and gently pulled up the sleeve of one of the maids' arms.
The next moment.
The "Blue Rose" all frowned at the same time.
Only to see that the maid's arm was covered in wounds.
Princess Renner opened the Regeneration Potion and poured it on these wounds. Under the effect of the potion, the wounds quickly grew granulation tissue and recovered as before.
The situation of the other maid was similar.
In this atmosphere, the two maids left again under the leadership of Climb.
Princess Renner also returned to the sofa.
Until this moment, Lakyus, who had been silent, showed anger and said coldly, "Who did it?"
The identities of those maids were all nobles, and they were specifically responsible for taking care of Princess Renner. How dare they...
Lakyus's angry expression paused, looking at the silent Princess Renner, she quickly realized something, and her face became a little ugly.
"Those nobles!"
Lakyus gritted her teeth.
"That's terrible, but it's normal, right?" Tina's flat voice said lightly.
"Boss, you are also a noble," Tia followed closely behind.
Gagaran showed her snow-white teeth and grinned: "If you two keep talking, be careful, you will be beaten up by the Demon Captain."
Tia and Tina looked at each other, and at the same time crossed their arms and closed their mouths, their movements were exactly the same, like shadows.
Lakyus was already used to her team members' poisonous tongues and sighed.
Speaking of which.
What does this matter have to do with Lord Minori.
"Your Highness, are you worried about the slaves, right?" Minori said lightly.
"You are really amazing, Lord Minori."
Princess Renner's deep blue eyes looked deeply at Minori, and she squeezed her hands under her skirt forcefully.
In fact, the scene just now can be understood as multiple meanings, but Minori immediately chose what she really wanted in her heart.
Princess Renner was excited in her heart, her legs rubbed gently, but her expression became more and more sacred and solemn: "When I think that even the maids will be affected by this, the persecution suffered by those slaves with even lower status will be even more serious."
"The alchemical potion made by Lord Minori has such good efficacy, it may not be a good thing for the slaves."
Minori's mouth twitched, and he suddenly understood why the Bloody Emperor rated Princess Renner as the most hated woman in his heart.
"Eight Fingers!" Lakyus suddenly realized, and spat out two words, her green eyes followed with seriousness.
Gagaran's face changed, and she immediately realized that her Demon Captain was probably immersed in some kind of emotion on her own again.
That's all, she was worried that Lakyus would rashly agree to some things that violated the Adventurer's Guild regulations.
Gagaran raised her thick arm and pushed Evileye, who had been silent next to her.
"Captain, you forgot about Tina's matter," Evileye's heavy, peculiar tone sounded from behind the mask.
"Oh!"
Lakyus suddenly came back to her senses, couldn't help but raise her hand and patted her forehead, first looking apologetically at Princess Renner, then said: "Before this, there is something I forgot to explain to Lord Minori."
"As a sincerity, all the assassinations against you by the [Ijaniya] assassination organization have been completely cancelled, and [Free Will] adventurer members will not be hunted down in the future."
Lakyus's sudden opening also gave Minori the opportunity to change the subject.
"So that's how it is, I said no assassins have come out recently."
Minori showed a look of understanding.
"So, can we exchange that set of assassin's equipment?" Lakyus glanced at Enri, who was sitting on the edge.
Tina's voice was not loud or small, and she said faintly: "Boss, you finally remembered the main thing."
These words made Lakyus show a trace of embarrassment.
Enri was a little stiff, and subconsciously grabbed the assassin's magic items on her body, these were given to her by the master.
"That's our loot."
Minori glanced at Enri and shook his head: "Sorry, I refuse."
Lakyus was stunned for a moment. She felt that she should have experienced the feeling of being rejected by Princess Renner just now.
She looks like she is easy to talk to, but in reality, she is not easy to talk to at all.
"Really."
Evileye stood up from the sofa, her black patterned mask facing Minori: "Adventurers should really talk in the way of adventurers, loot?"
"Then let's have a fight. If we win, then that's our loot."
"Huh?" Lakyus was stunned.
Gagaran and the others also looked completely unexpected. They didn't expect Evileye, who had always been indifferent to everything, to make such a move.
Just then.
Dang! Dang!
With two knocks on the door, the door was pushed open directly.
Two figures walked in from outside the door, Princess Renner, who was sitting on the sofa, narrowed her beautiful eyes and stood up immediately, with a respectful look on her face.
"Second elder brothers," Princess Renner said, bending over.
The burly First Prince and the obese Second Prince both had smiles on their faces.
"It looks like it's very lively here, Renner."
The Second Prince Zanac stood behind the First Prince, his mouth turned up.
