With this flat voice, Ryuga's figure appeared in the living room.
He was still wearing the black windbreaker with a collar. His figure was tall and slender. The dark stripes on his neck were faintly discernible. His whole body was surrounded by a demonic temperament. Just by standing there, he exuded an extraordinary sense of existence, which was unusually eye-catching.
The moment they saw this young man, including the knights standing at the head, even Agrid who had been in contact with him before, couldn't help but stare blankly. Their hearts secretly gave birth to thoughts of inferiority or secretly longing for him.
Regardless of gender or age, anyone who saw him for the first time couldn't help but have a favorable impression of him.
Of course, if it was the kind of person who had a psychological shadow of handsome men and was very repulsed and disgusted by handsome men, then it would be an accident. Using Magical Charm on such a person might backfire.
"May I know who you are?"
The head of the knights was also stunned by the Magical Charm. The originally malicious expression on his face eased, and he even asked Ryuga with a somewhat polite tone.
"Agrid should have told you about me. I'm the adventurer who helped her repel this disaster."
Under the gaze of several people, Ryuga stood in the open space of the living room, then calmly looked up at the head of the knights.
"Because I was active enough in this disaster, Miss Agrid promised to give me 100 gold coins as a reward. Now, this reward hasn't been paid to me yet."
Originally, Agrid planned to wait for Ryuga and the others to come out of the library, then pay him the reward. She didn't expect that this would happen before she had the time to pay.
100 gold coins wasn't a small sum of money.
It should be known that the currency used in the general market was mostly copper and silver coins. Because the denomination of gold coins was too large, civilians rarely used them. Only rich adventurers or nobles would use large amounts of gold coins as a transaction currency.
The purchasing power of gold coins was very strong. Even if you find a palace blacksmith to forge a powerful weapon or equipment, a few gold coins would be enough. 100 gold coins, under normal circumstances, was even enough to cover the expenses of the palace for a whole month.
In this way, Ryuga naturally had an excuse to intervene in this matter.
"The adventurer who repelled the disaster?"
The head of the knights was taken aback when he heard this, and then he suddenly realized, "So it's you. I thought you were a high-level adventurer. I didn't expect you to be so young …"
As he said this, his eyes kept rolling as if he had some different ideas in his heart.
"It's just a trivial reward. Don't worry about it. I'll take you back to the capital later. The king will definitely give you a very generous reward. You can leave now."
For some reason, that face made people feel very happy.
If it weren't for that face of his, perhaps he wouldn't even bother to say a word to him and would have directly asked his subordinates to chase him away.
A mere adventurer was not even worth mentioning in front of the knights.
"However, that face is indeed not bad."
. "The head of the knights secretly said in his mind," I remember that the crown princess likes this kind of good-looking young man very much. When I bring him back to the capital, I'll drug him and engrave a slave mark on him. Turn him into a slave and give him to the crown princess later. "
"Just as well. I'll take the credit for repelling the disaster. His Majesty's reward will also not be lacking. On top of that, I'll also get the property of the Saiat Hill … Hehehe, I'll get a lot from this trip."
Killing three birds with one stone.
Not only could he get the property of the Saiat Hill, he could also get the king's reward. In the end, he could also curry favor with the crown princess. Not only would he get a huge amount of property, it would also greatly benefit his future career advancement.
"I refuse."
Ryuga did not hesitate to reject the head of the knights' proposal. She indifferently said, "I don't like to be taken advantage of. What's mine will be mine."
Ungrateful — —
The head of the knights' face turned cold. He was about to reprimand her, but when he raised his head and met Ryuga's eyes, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
An ice-cold killing intent appeared in his eyes.
That killing intent made the head of the knights feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave. It was as if he was in a scorching summer just a moment ago, and now it was winter. His body suddenly released a strong sense of danger. All the hair on his body stood on end. His body became abnormally stiff, and he couldn't move at all.
His whole body was so stiff that he couldn't resist.
Moreover, if he resisted, he would definitely die.
That was what his instincts told him.
That kind of killing intent seemed to have condensed into a solid form. It surpassed the scope of willpower and reached the level of spiritual pressure. It was as if the killing intent itself had turned into a blade. It was enough to freeze his courage in an instant, cut off his spirit, and make him lose all ability to resist.
What a terrifying gaze.
He had lived half his life and had climbed up and down the ranks of the kingdom for decades, but he had never met such a young person. Just the killing intent released was as sharp as a blade, and he didn't dare to say a word.
This was the willpower of a Sacred Swordsman.
Ryuga, who became a Sacred Swordsman through the path of slaughter, as long as she wanted to, any casual gaze containing killing intent would have the terrifying power of "killing intent as sharp as a blade".
As the essence of swordsmanship, [Sky Kill]'s introduction even directly wrote that it had the effect of spiritual pressure.
Although the head of the knights had a high status, he had been addicted to power, money, and achievements all his life. His willpower was far from firm. Ryuga's gaze was enough to cut off his fighting spirit and make him unable to move.
If someone hadn't looked into his eyes before, they wouldn't have been able to experience this kind of pressure.
It was a kind of danger that could die at any time, as if it would never leave his body. His life was no longer in his own hands.
The head of the knights only felt a knot in his throat. The words that he wanted to scold were directly choked in his throat. The fear in his heart made him instinctively not dare to make a sound.
Agrid tilted her head and blinked her eyes. Then she looked at Ryuga with eyes full of admiration.
"However, I'm not an unreasonable person."
Ryuga abruptly retracted her spiritual pressure, the killing intent in her eyes gradually disappearing. However, she still said indifferently, "Even now, there are still many magical creatures remaining in the Saiat Territory. As long as the knights can produce a definite contribution, I don't need my reward. You can withdraw the wealth of the Saiat Territory as you wish. Even the contribution of repelling the disaster can be given to you."
"Can I, Miss Agrid?"
Ryuga turned to look at Agrid and asked for her opinion.
"Yes!"
Seeing Ryuga looking over, Agrid immediately stood at attention like a soldier who had seen her instructor. Her eye-catching slender legs were straight, and she spoke without hesitation with a tone full of trust.
"I, Agrid Saiat, swear on my name that all the property of the Saiat Clan will be at the disposal of Sir Yin-yang!"
