Chapter 21 Jia Xiu Doesn’t Cheat the Poor
"Is the contract for a knight's squire really that complicated?"

Bubu was visibly cautious, holding the contract lightly with two fingers, for fear of damaging it.

"Well, because of your special identity, being both an undead and a fairy, you are a rare and excellent reserve knight, so the contract must be strict."

Jia Xiu just made up something.

This is certainly not a contract for a knight's squire, but a contract sent by Margaret to control the undead.

Although the normal procedure is to control the undead first, and then realize the long-cherished wish, release the resentment, and complete the contract.

But it doesn't rule out the possibility that the undead will take the initiative to sign the contract.

"Am I an excellent reserve knight? Hehe."

"Here's the pen."

"Thank you." Bubu wrote his name on the contract very seriously.

Seeing that the man and the ghost were busy, the other cultists wanted to take this opportunity to slip away, but they did not escape Jia Xiu's eyes.

"Are you allowed to go? Stand still!"

These cultists are all walking money. The Adventurer's Association has put up a bounty for the cultists. Although each person is only worth 20 herr, which is too cheap for anyone to take it, but even a small amount of money is meat, and you can't refuse the free money.

"What are you using to tie you up? Forget it, the brilliance is the weaving, and the wound is as good as the first one."

Soon, there were several more paronychia patients lying on the ground unable to stand up.

"Signed! Boss."

Bubu excitedly handed the contract back.

"Don't call me boss, it's unlucky."

"Why? Boss, I am your follower, so of course you are my boss."

"Forget it, just scream."

"Okay, boss!"

Jia Xiu took the contract.

"Forehead……"

Looking at the Q-version Bubu drawn on the contract, "Is this how you understand signing a contract?"

"Isn't that right?"

"alright."

Anyway, for the Undead Contract, as long as the target touches the signature column, it doesn’t matter what they sign.

The contract took effect, and Jia Xiu was able to view Bubu's detailed information.

[Name: Bubu]

[Race: Fairy/Undead]

【Level: 19】

[Relationship: Trust/(Contract Signing...)]

【属性：力量3/敏捷18/体质3/智力4/感知16/魅力28】

[Attributes: Undead/Magic Resistance/Natural Spellcasting/Magic Weapon/Shadow Stealth/Elemental Affinity...]

What a super follower.

Jia Xiu thought Bubu was very powerful, but he never thought he would be this powerful.

Level 19!
Half a step into the legendary realm! Almost stepping into the legendary realm.

Fortunately, its intelligence is 4, and it seems that it relies on charm to cast spells, otherwise I really don’t know how to trick it into signing a contract.

But what happened during the signing of this contract?

Jia Xiu rechecked the contract and immediately found the problem.

There are two necessary conditions for the completion of the contract: long-cherished wish and resentment.

My long-cherished wish is to become a knight, and starting as a knight's squire has already been accomplished.

But the part about releasing resentment has not yet been completed.

"Bubu, do you have any grievances?"

“No boss.”

"No, is it okay without it?"

"I don't understand your question, Boss."

"It's okay, I'm not asking you."

Jia Xiu continued to study the contract.

Bad news, the resentment part cannot be empty. You must release some resentment, otherwise it cannot be completed.

Moreover, his current attributes are not enough to modify this contract.

How to deal with this?
Isn’t it a bit too rigid to write “procedure” like this?

Send it back and ask Margaret to revise it?
Although you can, but you will look very bad.

I have to trouble the mentor so many times regarding a dead soul.

Excellent researchers should be able to solve unexpected difficulties independently. There should be no resentment; if resentment arises, it should be released.

Jia Xiu recalled the little story in Bubu's nursery rhyme.

The culprit was the instructor who hid the sword and framed it, and he had been driven crazy by Bubu.

Who else is the bad guy in this story?
The townspeople who refused to believe Bubu when he was falsely accused.

Although this is not a serious crime, it is definitely a big blow to Bubu, and the emotional damage is also hurtful.

"Bubu, have you ever complained about the residents of Ximu Town?" Jia Xiu asked.

"Um...no, Boss."

Bubu's small eyes were a little evasive.

Jia Xiu could tell at a glance that it wasn't telling the truth, "You must be honest if you want to become a knight."

Bubu hesitated for a few seconds and replied, "Actually, I blamed them before, but knights also need mercy. They are all very weak."

This is true. At level 19, in a small place like Ximu Town, you can live a life of "I don't eat beef".

"Besides, human lifespans are very short. Those townspeople should have been gone long ago, so there's no need to blame them anymore."

"No!"

Jia Xiu thought of how to create resentment in Bubu.

"Justice is also a necessary virtue for a knight! And justice means that when faced with unfair treatment, one must retaliate impartially! The townspeople of Riverwood Town have unfairly misunderstood you, so they too should pay a price, er, a not-so-serious price, as a fair warning."

After listening to this, Bubu used his intelligence of "up to" 4 to think for a while.

"That makes sense, Boss. The people of Ximu Town deserve a fair warning, but at what price?"

"Um……"

Jia Xiu was also wondering what the appropriate price would be.

What happened to Bubu is somewhat similar to online violence. It is oppression caused by public opinion. It is problematic, but it is not serious enough to be exaggerated.

The key point is that the generation that created public opinion is long gone, and Aunt Susan is also a resident of Creekwood Town.

So Jia Xiu felt that the price of a prank was enough.

While he was thinking, Bubu spoke up, "Boss, how about making them sleepy all day?"

"Can you make the whole town sleepy for the whole day?"

The price was indeed at the level of a prank, but Jia Xiu was more surprised by Bubu's ability.

"of course can."

Jia Xiu suddenly had an inspiration.

"Then do you have any method to make the people in this town lose their hair?"

……

Emilia looked at the moon in the sky. It was a full moon night.

There has been no movement in the cave for a while. It seems that Jia Xiu really got rid of the undead.

Win.

acceptable.

According to the plan, the next step should be to reward Jia Xiu. Emilia prepared a magic wand for Jia Xiu.

"Okay, go back, everything will be fine tonight." Emilia said to the guard.

Suddenly, she seemed to see a few strands of golden hair floating down in front of her eyes.

I rubbed my eyes, and more rain fell.

She had a bad feeling, reached out and touched her head, and a lot of hair fell out.

Emilia was silent.

"Your Highness, it seems to be the curse of that undead. It seems that he is signing a contract with the undead and releasing his resentment." said the guard.

"No, how could there be undead spirits with such resentment?" Emilia's voice trembled slightly.

……

Early in the morning, Jia Xiu appeared on the streets of Ximu Town with Bubu.

Holding a piece of canvas in his arms.

Walk to the town center and hang the canvas on the wall, on which are clearly written "Secret method of hair growth passed down from ancestors".

Bubu stood on the ground holding a board.

Jia Xiu took out a piece of chalk and started writing.

"Free for the poor, 100 for the rich..."

As he wrote, he felt that something was wrong. He was primarily responsible for the townspeople's hair loss, so Jia Xiu did not intend to collect money from the civilians.

But writing directly about the poor is a bit too explicit.

After thinking about it, I changed it to "Apprentice-level hair growth is free, director-level hair growth is 100 kronor."

Words!
