"As for Mister Xim."
In the old house, Leon looked at the silent Coral and Sims in front of him with a full smile on his face. He turned to look at Ximu who was on the stairs, and his gaze was far more solemn than before. "As an Awakened, I have also prepared a gift for you, Your Excellency."
Across from him, Adil's expression did not change when he heard Leon's words, but he felt a rare bit of interest in his heart.
Leon was indeed an intelligent person. He tried to rush things as much as possible, but the previous two gifts had undoubtedly catered to Coral and Tilly's desires. Thus, the two of them immediately became silent, and even their rejection of each other had clearly decreased. Their attitude had become much friendlier.
The previous two gifts had hit the nail on the head. Even if it was Adil, what price would he offer?
Adil was very curious about this.
Without making Adil wait any longer, the moment Adil's gaze shifted, Leon's heart skipped a beat, and he said without hesitation, "The Medal of the Guardian of the Imperial Court, two million Amethyst Flower gold coins, the status of a hereditary baron in the Hera Empire, and the full support of the Carldish Family!"
Looking at Adil, he read each word out loud. Every time he read out a price, Coral and Tilly's breathing would quicken for a moment.
These were not simple things. Every price that was announced by Leon was worth fighting for for the rest of their lives.
Two million gold coins did not need to be mentioned, and the status of a hereditary baron in the Hera Empire was even more precious.
The Hera Empire was the number one empire on this continent, and it was also the suzerain of the Amethyst Flower Kingdom.
As the number one empire on this continent, the status of a hereditary noble in the Hera Empire was far more noble than that of the other kingdoms. It could also be used in most countries, and one could enjoy all the privileges stipulated by the law.
The Medal of the Guardian of the Imperial Court was the highest personal honor award of the Amethyst Flower Kingdom. With this medal, one would have all sorts of privileges in the Amethyst Flower Kingdom, and could even directly enter the palace and make their own suggestions.
Of course, these things might be extremely precious to the people of this world, but to Adil, they were nothing. They could only be said to be flashy without substance.
What he really cared about was the last point.
"The full support of the Carldish family," Adil mumbled to himself in Silence. He seemed to be a little doubtful and hesitant.
On the other hand, when Coral and Tilly heard the name of the family, their expressions changed drastically.
"You're from the Carldish family?"
Coral stepped forward with a serious expression on his face as he looked at Leon, who had risen to his feet with a confident smile on his face.
"Of course." Seeing the change in Coral's expression, Leon smiled easily, "I don't think anyone in the Violet Gold Flower Kingdom would dare to impersonate our clan's name."
"If you don't believe me, you can go and ask that girl over there."
He pointed at the pale-faced Darissa, who was standing beside Adil. "This child is the daughter of a certain Senator. Her family is also a large one, so she should be familiar with me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Coral and Tilly turned to look at Teresa. When they saw her slowly nodding, their hearts tightened, and their expressions changed as they looked at Leon.
"Perhaps you still don't understand what the Carldish family means."
Sensing the change in the emotions of Coral and the other two, a confident smile appeared on Leon's face as he lightly took a step forward, "Power, wealth, secret treasures … as long as you are willing, we will help you take care of it."
"Our family has been passed down since the Keldo Dynasty, and we've produced more than one Awakened. We also have a collection of secret treasures and secret techniques that Awakened need for cultivation. As long as you're willing, we can give you all of these things."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a moment of silence.
After listening to Leon's words, Adil fell into deep thought. He seemed to be thinking, but also seemed to be hesitating.
No one present, including Coral and Tilly, did anything to disturb him. Although they were tempted, they forcefully endured it and waited in Silence for Adil to think for himself.
"What do you need me to do?"
After a while, Adil raised his head again and looked at Leon.
Hu …
Hearing this answer, whether it was Leon, Coral, or Tilly, they all let out a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their shoulders.
This was especially true for Leon. On the surface, he still maintained his calm and confident smile, but in reality, he was the most nervous one. His palms were already sweating, but he didn't dare to show it.
Only when he heard Adil's words did he let out a sigh of relief. However, his attention was still focused on Adil, "Resisting the curse."
"Then, let's have a pleasant cooperation." Opposite him, Adil nodded lightly, as if in agreement.
"Sim, are you really going to work for him?" After Leon left, Coral closed the door, turned around, and looked at Adil as he asked.
"Why not?" Sitting in front of a wooden table in Silence, Adil looked at Coral's hesitant expression and shook his head, "Also, what should we do if we don't agree to him?"
"This …" Coral froze for a moment, then thought of this problem as well.
The other party was a member of the Carldish family. Not only was he the deputy governor of a province, but he was also the military chief of this city. It could be said that he had great authority in this city.
Facing such a person, if they ultimately chose to refuse, the other party would definitely not take revenge on them openly. However, as long as the other party hinted at them, their family would not have a good time.
As for confronting the other party directly, or even assassinating him?
After knowing the other party's background, Coral and Tilly did not have such thoughts.
After all, they still had to live in this city.
Although the outside world seemed to have changed a lot, Coral was still a police officer, and Tilly still had to continue learning.
After leaving this city that they had lived in for decades, even if they were in a foreign place, life would still have to continue, so they might as well stay.
Moreover, the other party's conditions were not bad. Regardless of whether it was for Coral or for Tilly, they were all to their liking.
The only thing that they were not satisfied with was that Adil would have to resist the curse in the future.
"Actually, if I think about it from another perspective, there is nothing wrong with this."
Sitting on an old wooden chair and placing his arm on the old wooden table, Adil shook his head, "You will only get something in return if you put in so much effort. Since the other party has given me so much, it is not a big deal for me to help him do something."
"And from another point of view, fighting against the curse, this is also my original goal." Sitting on the wooden chair, quietly looking at the scenery outside the window, this thought flashed through Adil's mind.
By now, he was basically sure that if he could suppress the curse in this world, he would indeed be able to obtain a lot of World Energy.
Because of this, he had originally decided to search for as many curses as possible and destroy them in order to obtain more World Energy.
