The meaning of the letter was clear. She would treat Li Ke as her guest and try her best to satisfy Li Ke's needs in life. Although the letter didn't mention anything about helping Li Ke, from what Li Ke saw at the border, his reputation in Demacia would instantly change from neutral to friendly. It was even possible for him to become revered after showing the pass from the Royal Guards.
This wasn't a joke by Li Ke. After he showed the pass, the gate guard almost turned into a bootlicker.
"Don't worry. Even if you do something evil, the Royal Guards won't suffer any damage to their reputation … But when the time comes, it will indeed be troublesome for me and I will have to personally get rid of you. Don't worry, our Royal Guards won't abuse our authority. At most, we'll bring a few hundred of our family members to hunt you down. Ah, by the way, the city defense officer, the garrison general, and the emperor can't be considered as using their authority for private purposes. "
Then, Karina casually told him something terrifying.
"Is it really okay to say something like that?"
Li Ke returned the letter to Karina and watched her put the letter into an envelope. Then, she sealed it with wax and stamped her own seal. After doing all this, Karina put her head in front of Li Ke and looked at Li Ke with a provocative smile.
"In the eyes of other Demacians, you're just a barbarian from Freldrod. Do you think anyone will believe you?"
Fine.
Li Ke shook his head, took the envelope, and was about to leave, but Karina spoke again when he was about to open the door.
"Oh right, I'll take care of the girl beside you. After all, without parents, no matter how good the people I send are, they won't be able to help her live a good life. Of course, if you want to adopt her, I'll be more than happy to do it. "
Li Ke turned his head and looked at Karina.
"What do you plan to do with her?"
Carina was still as casual as ever. She put her quill back into a strange sheath as she answered Li Ke's question.
"Send her to the orphanage sponsored by our family. In addition, we will send people to take over her family's property and the restoration of her residence. We will return all of it to her when she reaches adulthood. Of course, there is a price to pay. When she reaches adulthood, she must become a clerk and serve us for two years. Of course, the salary is relatively good. "
This condition was already very good, and Li Ke had nothing to say. Moreover, he didn't have the ability to raise such a girl right now, so it was indeed appropriate for Karina to handle this matter. After all, he didn't even know if he could survive the battle with those who could be called demigods, let alone a child like her.
"As long as she's willing."
After saying that, Li Ke pushed the door open and left, while Karina resumed her serious look. The female officer on the side also came back with the girl and the village chief. She asked the village chief to listen to Karina's arrangements and orders. Of course, because of Li Ke's words, Karina also forced some information from the village chief and made corresponding arrangements for some people. She also punished some people that other villagers wouldn't know about.
As for Li Ke? He went to find a pool to wash his face and brush his big black horse's hair. He wanted to prevent a big pile of black dust between his legs when he rode on it. And if it weren't for this reason, he would have left directly and continued his journey. However, even if he tried to keep a low profile, many people still remembered him because of how active he was last night. When he was brushing the horse, more than once people brought him food and even money as thanks for saving their lives.
However, Li Ke only left a part of the food. After all, how could a farmer have much money, let alone encounter such an accident? But this also directly caused his bag to become very large all of a sudden. Countless vegetables and fruits were stuffed into his bag, and his horse was washed clean by a few shy people when he tried his best to refuse the money.
And not only that, Li Ke also received a brand-new white cloak and a pair of brand-new boots as compensation for his clothes that were burned with several holes. And a few shy girls rescued by Li Ke gave him hints, so Li Ke had no choice but to leave the village as if he was running away. Exhausted, he continued his journey. Of course, the moment he felt a trace of helplessness, Yatoku's mouth sounded.
"Look at you, looking for trouble for yourself. Why don't you just kill them all?"
Yatoku was not very good at leading and tempting people. Li Ke realized this during his confrontation with Yatoku. Many times, Yatoku's mouth not only did not weaken his will, but it also strengthened his will and thoughts before they reached their limits …
"There will always be trouble when you're born as a human, and I don't think I'm not a human. So in another sense, trouble is also a representation of my efforts to live, Yatoku. "
Li Ke replied to Yatoku's words casually. And this was also his true feelings. What did he realize and learn after transmigrating to this world? It was probably that 'people should work hard and live seriously'. This was a very useful but also very useless truth. But when he replied to Yatoku, he saw the shadow of a convoy in front of him, so he immediately and carefully stuffed his right arm into his cloak to avoid something bad from happening.
However, Yatoku had no intention of letting him go. His voice became quite teasing. He had already sensed something interesting, so he directly mocked Li Ke.
"But someone like you who likes to cause trouble …"
Following his words, the caravan in front of Li Ke's eyes suddenly became chaotic. Then, a violent tremor hit them in an instant. Not only was the caravan's formation disrupted, but even the big black horse that Li Ke was riding panicked and wanted to leave this place. Li Ke quickly pulled the reins, trying to stop his black horse from escaping. But unfortunately, just as he did so, a huge monster suddenly emerged from the ground in the middle of the caravan and swallowed a carriage in one gulp.
"Stone Beast! It's a Stone Beast! "
The people in the caravan cried out the monster's name in horror. And Li Ke also recognized this monster because of his gladiatorial experience. It looked similar to the Swift Crab in the Summoner's Canyon. But unlike the Swift Crab, this monster was more ferocious and aggressive. The Swift Crab was also not as tall and slender as this four-story building.
It was also the first time Li Ke saw such a huge Stone Beast. In his memory, the four-meter-tall Stone Beast he faced was disgusting enough and almost killed him. It crushed his head like stepping on a watermelon. And now, in the peaceful and stable Demacia, he actually saw such a huge Stone Beast!
But just as he was feeling 'surprised' and immediately prepared for battle, Yatoku slowly uttered the second half of his sentence.
"… This is the first time I've seen it."
Yes, in his long life, this was the first time he saw such a troublemaker.
