If the Parliaers would be utterly disgusting
“… If that’s the case, should we still accept it?”
Even though Marlene had not o-lucky Anne and the kindhearted Lize had already expressed their resentood choice
But Rhode simply nodded his head
“Why not? No uaranteed by the Deep Stone City’s owner, Klautz We don’t have to worry about those scu excuses Besides, don’t you all have any interest to see how those scuine — those poor sods kneeling and begging in front of you for help, won’t it feel great?”
“This…”
“Of course it will feel great Anne is going crazy just thinking about it!”
The young girl shouted with both her ar in a parade carnival
“I hope they will apologize to my previous leader and atone for their impolite behavior, but…”
“… but that will not be an easy task Yes, we know that, kid” Old Walker finished Lize’s uncompleted sentence
“Those bastards are like ht through your kindness You want them to listen to you obediently? That wouldn’t be an easy task…”
“Don’t worry about these uys just need to do what you are supposed to do, that’s all”
Rhode waved his hand to stop Old Walker fro
“For the next step, leave it to Marlene andher naer
“What do I need to do, Mr Rhode?”
Marlene was rather worried She knew everyone had a bad ie and Rhode didn’t seem to have a positive attitude towards theuess if Rhode was about to use her usting people, to Marlene, such intie her identity and her faht?
Contrary to her expectation to her curious question, Rhode put his index finger on his lip Frouessed her what she was thinking, but he didn’t intend to reveal it
“Not to worry, Miss Marlene We’ll see later Even if I don’t ask you to, perhaps you would have done the sa that, Rhode clapped his hands
“Alright, all of you go and get prepared Randolf, get Lapis here I need her to provide the potions for thisRhode’s command, Randolf bowed respectfully and i there’s no other way to change Rhode’s mind and swiftly proceeded to prepare their equip, Rhode stopped Marlene as also about to leave
“Oh yes, Miss Marlene This is for you”
Rhode placed a piece of paper on the table
“This is…”
Marlene quickly walked up front and grabbed the piece of paper
“This is the contract that you wanted Due to your special conditions, I’ve given you an unlimited deadline, similar to Lize The only difference would be, you can choose to leave anytime and there will be no termination penalty At the same time, I hope you understand that this contract doesn’t represent a roup, but rather, you are my assistant in adventures and battle… what do you think of this condition?”
Marlene was stunned and a red blush started to flush on her face and began to stutter a little
“T-This… Mr Rhode”
“Hmm?”
“If I did not misunderstand you… what you meant was… this contract doesn’t require me to become a mercenary, but to becoht”
“S-So… Can I take it as…”
As Marlene stuttered, she unconsciously stretched out her hand and played with her shoulder-length hair
“W-What youas I wish?”
“…”
