"So skinny, is he a magician?"
"Who knows, maybe he's a fake. I heard that the Crimson Red guys all have their own teams."
"Strange, why did he come here? Weren't most of the Crimson Red transferred to the frontlines?"
The discussion of the adventurers abruptly disappeared as the door closed. After the vice president closed the door, he walked directly to his seat, which was behind the huge desk.
"Please sit."
"I guess you didn't just come here to report. Did something happen?" The vice president asked after sitting in her seat.
The Demon King sat down, and the huge desk made the two of them about 1.5 meters apart. Reina sat on a horizontal bench beside the door.
"No, I just came here to report."
The Demon King answered indifferently, and at the same time handed her a few pieces of parchment paper.
The vice president nodded, her expression was quite interesting. She took the Demon King's information and casually flipped through it.
"You seem to have just joined the guild recently, and you're already at the Crimson Red level from the beginning?" The vice president seemed a bit surprised.
The Demon King didn't answer her question because the document was already written very clearly.
She finished reading it in an instant, and then slowly put the document on the table, revealing an unpleasant smile and said, "First of all, I welcome people with ability like you to come to our side, but the guild has a written rule regarding salary. You don't seem to have reached the standard this month, so we can't pay you this month's salary."
The Demon King looked at her expressionlessly and said, "Then I'll just complete a few bounty missions here."
"Of course, right, I forgot to remind you that the date we pay is fixed. We pay on the third day of the month, which is a week ago, so …" The vice president didn't continue speaking because the Demon King had already stood up and was about to leave.
"Don't forget your documents."
The vice president added, but with a whoosh, the documents in front of her suddenly flew out, startling her.
"Master, the people here seem to hate us." Reina whispered to the Demon King.
At this moment, the two of them were standing in front of the bulletin board, looking at the bounty on it.
"Outstanding people will always be ostracized," the Demon King said indifferently.
"Really!?" Reina suddenly became excited. She seemed to have misunderstood the Demon King's meaning.
"Of course, that doesn't exclude those that are too ugly, too stupid, too smelly, and so on." The Demon King added.
Reina pouted unhappily.
The Demon King chuckled, but his smile quickly disappeared. When he finished reading the bounty on the bulletin board, his face darkened.
For example, if someone lost a fish in the sea, he would have to help them find it, or he would have to repair the boat, or he would have to play with children. Most of them were strange one-star bounties, and some of them were even from a few years ago.
Other than that, there were no three-star or four-star bounties. There was only a five-star bounty hanging at the top.
A five-star bounty was a mission that was almost impossible to complete. For example, finding a legendary magical beast, killing the commander of the Demon King's army, or exploring ancient ruins, or inventing magic that satisfied specific needs. Most of them were missions that required a large amount of time to complete or research.
And this city's five-star mission was to find the Merfolk Island and find the sacred weapon Neptune's Trident.
The Demon King's face darkened. The sea was so big, where was he going to find it? Moreover, no one could prove the existence of this so-called sacred weapon.
Sigh ~
"Master, let's do this!"
Reina excitedly pointed at the five-star bounty and said. Maybe it was because she saw the large number on it, or she was attracted by the wonderful poster on the bounty.
The Demon King knocked on her head and said, "You should act according to your capabilities."
"Yes, master ~"
Their actions immediately caused the others to laugh at them. The Demon King glanced at them and found that each of them had a bounty.
It was obvious that they had snatched all the good ones.
The Demon King didn't say anything and directly took down the shabby bounty in the corner – Find the fish lost in the sea.
It was a one-star bounty, but the reward was higher than a two-star bounty. The title was very strange, and the fish on it was drawn like a child's drawing.
This action immediately caused a roar of laughter. It seemed that this bounty was very famous in the guild.
The Demon King ignored everyone and directly walked to the front desk. Reina frowned and followed behind her master.
Elena smiled at the two of them and said, "Are you done choosing? Uh …"
When she saw the bounty in the Demon King's hand, her smile immediately froze.
"Why don't you choose again?"
She asked weakly.
"Is there a problem with this bounty?" The Demon King looked at her and asked.
Elena smiled bitterly and didn't know what to say. Instead of saying what was wrong with this bounty, it was better to ask what was wrong with it. There were too many problems, and she didn't know where to start.
"Is the person who posted the bounty dead?" The Demon King asked without any warning.
Although this bounty had been posted for a long time, with the earliest date being two years ago, a normal person wouldn't ask like this.
"He's still alive. He just came to the guild a few days ago."
She replied.
The Demon King nodded and said, "Tell me about the person who posted the bounty."
Elena also nodded and said, "The person who posted the bounty is an old fisherman called Guajama. He's quite famous in the city."
"Oh? Is he rich? "
"No, the reason why he's famous is because of his strange personality. He has a bad temper and often has conflicts with other fishermen. Normally, people who know him avoid him."
"He sounds like a very difficult person to get along with. No wonder no one is willing to accept this bounty." The Demon King said seriously.
Elena smiled bitterly and said, "That's not the main reason. The main reason is that this bounty is just a joke … …"
If you lose a fish in the sea, it's obvious that it's impossible to get it back.
"Then he didn't pay? Why would the guild help him put up this kind of bounty? "
The Demon King asked.
People who put up bounties had to pay the bounty to the guild in advance. This was an iron rule.
"They did. At first, the guild refused, but he would come to the guild every week to cause a ruckus. In the end, they were forced to make an exception and put up a bounty for him. Later, because no one was willing to accept it, he would come once a week and increase the bounty. Sometimes it's a few dollars, sometimes it's more than ten dollars. That's why it reached this price. "Elena explained.
"What a strange person." Reina suddenly said.
The Demon King didn't deny it, but he didn't say anything either. He looked at Elena. Just as he was about to speak, a voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Hey! How long do you want us to wait? If you don't want to accept it, then scram. What's with all this nonsense? "
The Demon King turned around and saw a fat man about two meters tall with a fierce face standing behind them. He was looking at them with a disgusted expression.
"I'm not done asking." The Demon King replied.
"Do you not understand human language? Wah wah! Ahhh! " Just as the man was about to get angry, the Demon King suddenly snapped his fingers. His entire body suddenly drifted backwards and then sat down heavily on the wooden chair. But that wasn't the end. He turned around and faced the table.
His hand couldn't help but pick up the wine glass on the table and pour it into his face. The owner of the wine glass helplessly shrugged his shoulders.
The man wanted to get angry, but he found that he couldn't even stand up. His butt seemed to be stuck to the chair, and the chair seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.
"I advise you to sit down and drink a glass of wine." The Demon King said.
Elena smiled awkwardly and said weakly: "Please don't fight ~"
The Demon King shrugged and said: "In any case, I was the one who was provoked. Then I was forced to beat him up and let everyone know how strong I am. I'm just bringing the result forward."
The man from before was breathing heavily. He was angry, but he didn't dare to say anything. This was because he found that not only was he unable to stand up, he couldn't even lift the wine glass on the table. Right now, he was sitting with the glass in his hand. He could only pretend as if nothing happened.
"I'll accept this mission. Tell me where the bounty hunter is."
The Demon King finally said.
