Chapter 110: Your Name
“Hello, my name is Kailun. I believe your Temple of the Heavenly God should be very familiar with me. Actually, I’m very curious about your Pope, I wonder if I have the chance to meet her.”
Kailun smiled happily at the dining table, he didn’t hide his look of seeing a sucker.
The girl in front of him was quite tall, with delicate features and cold green eyes.
Judging from her behavior, she was most likely an assassin.
Unfortunately, she didn’t provide any favorability points, she was an insignificant “small character”.
The smile on assassin girl Helena’s face faltered for a moment: “Of course, everyone in the Temple knows about Your Excellency Kailun. If it weren’t for this special period, I believe many people would come to visit you with me.”
“Oh, I’m flattered by your enthusiasm.”
Kailun waved his hand and said, “But our Kingdom of Xiya is too small to accommodate you big shots, so I can only vacate the relatively spacious prison for you to stay in. But if His Holiness the Pope could come in person, I could reluctantly make room for her on half of my bed.”
“You’re really good at joking, our Pope is a man, he wouldn’t choose to stay with you, so you should give up on this idea.”
When mentioning the Pope, Helena’s expression became even colder, an invisible killing intent emanated from her.
“Oh, so the Pope is a man.”
Kailun said regretfully: “Forget it, don’t change the subject, let’s talk about the price of the Saint.”
Helena: “…”
Wasn’t it you who changed the subject?
She was a special assassin. Compared to other assassins, Helena was very petty. She usually took revenge directly if she had a grudge.
Generally speaking, waiting until night to commit a crime was already her greatest patience.
Suddenly, she had an urge to kill Kailun right here and now.
Was there a chance?
There was a chance, and it wouldn’t be difficult to escape, but the special collar on the Saint’s neck hadn’t been removed yet, it would be easy for Kailun to seize the opportunity to control her, so she had to wait.
This kind of special magic-suppressing collar either needed a special removal spell or was bound to the owner’s life and death, it was a very troublesome existence.
She was worried that if she killed Kailun, the Saint would die with him.
To ensure everything went smoothly, she decided to negotiate with Kailun first and redeem Chrissy.
The lost money could be taken back from Kailun, she didn’t have to worry about bargaining chips at all.
“One million gold coins to redeem the Saint, this is the bargaining chip His Holiness the Pope gave me.”
After thinking it through, Helena tentatively held up a finger at Kailun.
Kailun leaned back in his chair casually and said, “Is this the price of the Saint in the Pope’s eyes? No matter what, she has the strength of a seventh-rank, plus her good looks and figure, even if she’s sold as a slave, she would fetch a high price. And she also has the title of Saint, I think there are definitely many people willing to pay a high price for her.”
One million gold coins was not a small amount, the treasury of the Kingdom of Xiya didn’t even have that much money.
It could only be said that it was indeed the Temple of the Heavenly God, they were so generous.
“The value of the Saint indeed cannot be measured by gold coins, but if she is turned into a slave and sold, who would dare to buy her?”
Helena sneered. Anyone who bought her with her status as the Saint, except for sending her directly back to the Temple of the Heavenly God, wouldn’t dare to keep her for themselves.
“The abyss, if it was the abyss, they would definitely offer a higher price.” Kailun smiled.
Hearing the word “abyss”, Helena’s face darkened.
Her guess was indeed correct, the Kingdom of Xiya must have some connection with the abyss.
“Dealing with the abyss is not a wise decision, they regard humans as their greatest enemy, they are a group of out-and-out devils. If Your Excellency Kailun is not satisfied with my offer, then how much do you think it should be?”
Helena had lost her patience for negotiation, she just wanted to redeem the Saint and rescue her as soon as possible, and then assassinate Kailun alone at night and take back all the money from the transaction.
“One price, three million gold coins. I wonder how the generous Temple of the Heavenly God will pay this amount?”
Kailun held up three fingers, this was the price he casually offered.
If he had offered this price to Dean Edlin the day before yesterday, maybe she would have rushed up and pulled his pants down on the spot.
He really wondered what Edlin’s reaction would be if she heard their conversation.
“I agree to your request, Your Excellency Kailun should know that there is a kind of contract scroll called a Golden Agreement, right?”
As she spoke, Helena lined up three scrolls and opened them one by one: “These are Golden Agreements personally written by His Holiness the Pope, they have the ability to exchange for gold coins at any bank of the Temple. After all, the Temple of the Heavenly God is too far away from the Kingdom of Xiya, Your Excellency Kailun wouldn’t want to wait for more than a month to get the gold coins, right?”
The so-called Golden Agreement was like a check, it was engraved with a small part of the issuer’s soul imprint, having a similar effect to a contract. Judging from the aura emanating from the three scrolls in front of her, their creator was a ninth-rank existence.
“Although it’s troublesome to exchange these Golden Agreements, I still agree.”
Kailun reached out to take the Golden Agreements, but Helena stopped him with her hand.
Helena: “Our Temple of the Heavenly God has shown our sincerity, shouldn’t Your Excellency Kailun also show yours?”
“Snap!”
In response to the girl’s question, Kailun snapped his fingers.
The crisp snapping sound echoed in the room, and the collar on Saint Chrissy’s neck fell off with a clang.
“I’m going to kill you!”
Chrissy, who was freed, exploded with acting skills and charged towards Kailun. The change was so fast that even Helena didn’t react.
“You’re courting death.”
Afra, who was behind Kailun, glanced at Chrissy coldly, she raised her leg high and kicked towards Chrissy’s face.
Seeing Afra’s brutal action, Chrissy was stunned for a moment. Didn’t they agree to act? This kick on her face would definitely hurt.
After weighing the pros and cons, Chrissy quickly stopped her charge. She didn’t want to be kicked by Afra. With Kailun’s blessing, Afra was a real seventh-rank at this moment.
“Thump!”
However, Afra didn’t intend to let Chrissy go, her foot landed on Chrissy’s lower abdomen and kicked her away.
“If you do this again next time, I’ll kick you again!”
There was a cunning look hidden in Afra’s cold expression, she was clearly smiling.
Only then did Chrissy understand that Afra was clearly taking revenge.
Afra “hated” Chrissy because the latter had launched night attacks for two nights in a row, waking her up both nights. Especially on the second night, she was even affected and defeated in just half an hour, setting a new record for the shortest time.
“Hiss~”
Chrissy clutched her stomach and groaned softly, she didn’t expect that this usually aloof woman would also get angry.
“You’re courting death!”
Seeing Chrissy injured, Helena was furious. She took out a dagger from her sleeve and charged towards Kailun.
But she was blocked by Chrissy halfway.
“Saint, what do you mean?” She looked at Chrissy in confusion.
Chrissy winked at Helena: “You’re only at the sixth rank, don’t be impulsive, there are too many of them, we can’t beat them.”
Helena opened her mouth and said, “Saint, actually I’m an eighth…”
“Don’t ‘actually’ anymore, let’s go, let’s leave this place now.”
Not giving Helena a chance to explain, Chrissy directly grabbed her wrist, snatched the dagger from her hand, and threw it to the ground.
“!!!”
Helena: “Saint, my dagger…”
“Let’s go, we can’t stay here for long.” Chrissy dragged Helena out without any regard, she wouldn’t give her a chance to “assassinate” Kailun.
She didn’t expose herself now in order to get some useful information.
Originally, Kailun could have captured Helena directly, but he chose to act, he was really full of mischief.
Looking at Helena, who was being dragged away by Chrissy while looking back every few steps, Kailun placed the Golden Agreements in Afra’s hand.
Standing up from the chair, Kailun walked over and picked up the dagger: “Thank you for the gift of nature.”
If Helena could provide favorability points, then her favorability should be dropping crazily at this moment.
“I hope Chrissy can get some useful information out of her, otherwise I’ll feel like I kicked her too lightly just now.”
Afra smiled as she looked at her long legs that had just kicked Chrissy away.
“I didn’t expect Sister Afra to learn to be bad too, tell me quickly, who led you astray?” Kailun put away the high-level dagger.
“Slap!”
Afra slapped Kailun’s forehead with a scroll: “Someone knows it in his heart.”
Kailun snatched the scroll from Afra’s hand, put his arm around her waist, and smiled: “Then as compensation, I can continue to increase your strength, Sister Afra, do you want it?”
Afra looked directly into Kailun’s eyes: “Although I don’t know where your power comes from, every knight desires strength. If this strength can protect you, I will be even happier.”
Hearing this, Kailun pointed at his lips: “Then kiss me, and I will transfer all my strength to you.”
Afra didn’t hesitate to kiss him at his request. Thanks to Kailun’s good teaching, she even took the initiative to stick out her little tongue.
She was clearly a mature woman, but Kailun always felt that she was very cute.
After hugging for ten minutes, Kailun slowly increased Afra’s attributes. This process continued until all 100% of his attribute points were allocated to her.
In terms of point allocation, Afra naturally couldn’t do extreme point allocation like Kailun, so her attributes were relatively balanced while focusing on certain aspects.
Her overall strength was probably at the peak of the eighth rank, still some distance away from the ninth rank.
“How is it? Do you feel full?”
Kailun licked the corner of Afra’s lips, he liked this kind of intimacy.
Afra leaned against Kailun to barely stand firm: “If you had given me this ability earlier, I wouldn’t have been laughed at by Chrissy last night. Do you know how much her ‘half an hour’ hurt me?”
Kailun comforted her kindly: “It’s okay, you’re strong now, you can at least last for more than an hour.”
Afra rolled her eyes at Kailun and pinched his waist. Because she couldn’t bear to hurt him, she didn’t even use any force when pinching him, not even leaving a red mark.
“Right, Dean Edlin, who’s hiding next door, can come out now.”
After being intimate with Afra for a while, Kailun remembered Dean Edlin, who he had placed next door.
Letting go of Afra and pushing her to sit on a chair, Kailun stood behind her and massaged her shoulders.
Even through the fabric of her clothes, Kailun could feel the smoothness of her skin.
“Creak!”
Edlin pushed open the small hidden door of the private room and walked out from next door.
Even now, she still didn’t know what method Kailun used to hide his aura, she didn’t expect that even an eighth-rank existence couldn’t detect her.
Since she successfully exchanged for thirty thousand gold coins yesterday, her trust in Kailun had increased a lot.
“Look, three million gold coins, earned in less than half an hour. As long as you work with me, you won’t have to worry about lacking funds for researching magic.”
Kailun gestured towards the Golden Agreements on the table with his eyes.
“Let me take a look first.”
Dean Edlin ran to the table with her short legs and carefully examined the scrolls. Today, she maintained her petite form.
Choosing a petite body could not only hide her identity, but also avoid a heavier burden.
Opening the Golden Agreements, it was indeed the Pope’s handwriting and aura.
Looking at the string of zeros on the scroll, her heart pounded.
If she could beat Kailun, she would immediately snatch the Golden Agreements and run away.
“Boss, do you think I’m worth one-third of a Saint?”
Edlin’s eyes shone brightly. In order to show her worth, she even deliberately puffed out her chest.
Between the lines, she was clearly asking Kailun for one million gold coins.
Kailun lowered his head and glanced: “Not worth it.”
“You’re so heartless, I’m your dean, I took such good care of you before, even though your talent was so bad, I didn’t expel you from the academy.”
Edlin wiped her non-existent tears.
Kailun: “Oh? So I should thank you for your kindness, Dean?”
“No, that’s not what I meant.” Edlin shook her head repeatedly, the pigtails she had tied into swaying from side to side: “I mean, if I work for you, can you give me a little raise? Just a little bit.”
Edlin gestured with her fingers to indicate a little bit. As if she felt that a little bit wasn’t enough, she increased the distance between her fingers.
Kailun increased the strength of his shoulder massage for Afra and said, “How much do you want?”
Edlin looked at Kailun with surprise: “A monthly salary of fifteen thousand… no, twenty thousand is enough, I don’t want much.”
Kailun: “As expected of Dean Edlin, it doubled in the blink of an eye. If I remember correctly, the net profit of the Royal Magic Academy every month is less than five thousand gold coins, right?”
Edlin smiled awkwardly: “Although it’s not much, it’s not that little either, really.”
“How about this, Dean Edlin, if you can pay off the money you owe me, I will arrange a job with a monthly salary of twenty thousand gold coins for you.”
Kailun didn’t dwell on this issue, under his guidance, Edlin was gradually falling into the pit he had dug.
“Really!?”
She clutched her chest excitedly, her fingers sinking into her fullness.
Because of Kailun’s guidance, Edlin, who only saw the high salary of twenty thousand, selectively forgot about the unreasonable debt of one hundred and ten thousand.
[Edlin thinks you are a great benefactor, Favorability +10, Total favorability 60]
Kailun interrupted the excited Edlin: “But before that, I have to verify your ability and see if you’re worth the price.”
“Just say it, as long as it’s something I can do, it’s fine, but not anything sexual, this little bit of money from you is not enough to satisfy my requirements in that regard.”
She said it was difficult to satisfy, but her eyes clearly showed expectation.
She fantasized about Kailun domineeringly throwing these three Golden Agreements in her face and saying in a cold voice, “Let’s go, come with me to the room”.
That was three million gold coins!
In less than a second, Kailun directly refuted: “Sorry, I, a young man, can’t have any strange thoughts about a dean who doesn’t know how old she is.”
Edlin frowned: “That’s too much, it’s only been a few years since I resigned, I’m not even thirty years old yet, how can you say I’m old?”
In fact, for seventh-rank people, they usually had a lifespan of two to three hundred years. As long as they didn’t try to break through to the eighth rank, their aging process would be very slow.
Especially those Saints of the Temple, they obtained powerful strength at a young age and looked much younger than people of the same age.
It was no exaggeration to say that even Edlin had skin as delicate as Vivian and the others.
“How about this, didn’t the Temple of the Heavenly God give me Golden Agreements? These things need to be exchanged abroad at the banks of the Temple of the Heavenly God. Just exchanging them isn’t enough, I need to buy a lot of magic crystals of the same value. I hate trouble, so I want to find someone to help me. I wonder if Dean Edlin is willing to do me this favor?” Kailun raised his eyebrows at Edlin.
Edlin: “Can I get paid?”
Kailun pointed at the scroll in her hand with a finger: “Of course, as your internship, I am willing to give you great benefits. For every million gold coins, you only need to buy back magic crystals worth nine hundred thousand gold coins to complete the task, the rest is your reward.”
“Sob~” Edlin wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, looked at Kailun with gratitude, and said, “You must be a great benefactor who came to save me!”
She could earn one hundred thousand for every million gold coins, three million gold coins would earn her three hundred thousand, which was equivalent to Kailun’s tenfold offer.
For the tenfold offer the day before yesterday, she still had to provide special services, today’s tenfold offer was pure profit.
This made Edlin wonder if Kailun had fallen for her, otherwise why would he give her so much gold for free?
Her heart was moved.
[Your generous offer moved Edlin, she developed a special feeling for you. Favorability +10]
However, Edlin, who only had gold coins in her eyes, didn’t know that Kailun’s calculation method was based on the market price of the Kingdom of Xiya, she didn’t know that the possibility of her making money was extremely low.
“If you have no objections, let’s sign the contract. Because the amount is large, the price of breaking this contract will be quite serious. I’ll say it beforehand, if you can’t buy the corresponding amount of gold coins, it will be considered a new debt, do you still have confidence even with this?”
Kailun looked at Edlin and kindly reminded her.
“I have confidence, you can completely trust me, this kind of small matter is definitely a piece of cake. The contract, can I take a look first?” Edlin looked around impatiently.
Seeing this scene, Afra shook her head helplessly, another poor thing being played with by Kailun.
She found that Kailun’s words had become more and more attractive, they often gave people a sense of trustworthiness.
“Wait a moment, I’ll write it now, if you have any requests, you can mention them.”
Kailun let go of Afra’s shoulders and began to write the contract scroll.
He wrote every clause in front of Edlin. At first glance, it seemed very normal, but if you dug deeper, there was a big pit.
He calculated the amount Edlin should buy back according to the current market price of the Kingdom of Xiya, this was the biggest pit.
Although the price of magic crystals in various countries was always maintained at a relatively balanced price, it was uncertain with the hype of the Loya Ball and the fluctuations caused by these millions of gold coins.
Kailun estimated that Dean Edlin would owe hundreds of thousands of gold coins this time.
Taking advantage of Edlin’s excitement, Kailun also made her sign a repayment contract, turning her debt of one hundred and ten thousand into reality.
After everything was done, Kailun kindly touched her head and said, “I hope you can pay off your debts as soon as possible and achieve financial freedom. If it really doesn’t work, we can also pay in installments. Calculated according to a certain interest rate, you can pay it off in about thirty years.”
Edlin, who had high favorability, although she wasn’t used to it, didn’t resist Kailun touching her head.
She put away one of the contracts and said, “Don’t underestimate me, I can complete the task and pay off the debt this month.”
Kailun: “Good, you have ambition, as long as you work hard enough, I can buy a few more mobile palaces.”
Edlin: “Hmm?”
Kailun: “I mean, to prevent you from encountering danger on the road, I will arrange ten thousand members of the Silver Moon Knights to be your guards and protect your safety.”
Edlin: “Thank you, you’re a good person, can I set off now?”
Kailun shook his head: “Not yet, someone’s money hasn’t been squeezed dry yet, let’s wait a little longer.”
Edlin: “???”
……
“What’s your name again?”
Saint Chrissy, who had already left the city, looked at the assassin girl beside her and asked.
“Saint, my name is Helena, I’ve already said it twice.”
The assassin girl looked sad, her dagger, her beloved dagger, the dagger she slept with every day, was thrown away by the Saint.
Sadness flowed like a river, she inexplicably wanted to cry.
Chrissy waved her hand: “That’s not important, right, how many Golden Agreements did you bring to redeem me this time?”
Assassin girl Helena replied: “In response to the Saint, I brought five million gold coins worth of Golden Agreements according to His Holiness the Pope’s order. His Holiness the Pope said that no matter how great the price, we must rescue you from prison.”
“Not bad, five million should be enough for him to use for a long time…”
Chrissy nodded with satisfaction, she extended her hand to Helena and said, “Give me the Golden Agreements, I’ll keep them for you.”
“Oh~”
Helena took out the Golden Agreements and handed them to Chrissy without thinking, Chrissy’s status was much higher than hers.
Chrissy: “Are we going straight back to the Temple of the Heavenly God now?”
“No, I will first take you to a safe place to hide, and then I have to assassinate Kailun at night and take back the things he stole. No one can steal my dagger, I must pierce his heart.”
Helena gritted her teeth fiercely.
“Good, good, you have ambition, I’m optimistic about you, good luck.” Chrissy looked back at the royal city behind her with reluctance and said, “By the way, what’s your name again?”
Helena: “…”
