The Immortal God of War

Chapter 55 Turnaround

Because her body was too weak, Catherine was shaking slightly unconsciously. Liu Chi knew that this was because of the magic she had just used.

"Forget it, Master Benza, I won't bother you, Princess. I'll go outside and call your maid in, and then I'll go talk to the king." Liu Chi helped Catherine onto the bed.

"What are you going to say? I told you that there is no possibility between us!" Catherine said.

"Oh? So Your Highness Princess is still thinking about this? I mean, forget it, a forced melon is not sweet."

In Catherine's sight, Liu Chi said this and walked out. After a while, her two maids came in.

Led by the maid, Liu Chi soon met the king's confidant. The king was unwilling to see Liu Chi, so Liu Chi had to tell his confidant that the princess had woken up and did not mention anything about Bart.

After leaving the palace, Liu Chi understood that his goal was very clear. Before the system task was completed, he could only stay in Cerro as Zack and temporarily use the name of vampire hunter to cultivate and preach his soul.

After returning to the hotel, Liu Chi took Yang Xi to have lunch first. In the afternoon, the two of them went to the branch of Alice Chamber of Commerce, the world's largest chamber of commerce, in Cerro.

There were quite a lot of people in the hall. Almost all the merchants in this area had intersections with Alice Chamber of Commerce. Liu Chi's purpose of coming here was simple, to buy a house.

Following a message from a male staff member, it was finally Liu Chi's turn.

"Excuse me, what business does Baron Zach need to handle?"

The woman at the counter gave a professional fake smile and looked at Liu Chi in front of her.

"When buying a house in Cerro, my requirement is that it is a bit bigger, preferably a building with three floors on the first floor and two floors in total."

The woman wrote quickly on the paper and handed Liu Chi a receipt.

"Go to the third floor property of Alice Chamber of Commerce and ask."

Liu Chi took the receipt and stood up, grabbed Yang Xi's hand, and the two walked towards the stairs.

There is a world of difference between the third floor and the first floor. When they saw Liu Chi, several receptionists in charge of real estate business stopped chatting with each other, their expressions instantly became serious, and they changed into a fake professional smile.

"Sir, are you planning to buy a house?" A female receptionist walked towards the two men, and Liu Chi directly handed her the receipt. After the woman took it, she took a quick look at it and immediately became enthusiastic.

"Baron Zach, please move over here and follow me."

Afterwards, Liu Chi and the other person were brought into a private room by the woman. The woman skillfully took out a large map from a cabinet nearby, spread it on the table, and began to explain to Liu Chi the properties that Alice was selling on his behalf.

After the woman's introduction, Liu Chi finally decided on three locations. The first was at the foot of the palace, where the palace wall could be seen from a hundred meters away. The second was in the commercial street in the east of Cerro. The third was in the residential area in the south of Cerro, which was also an area with relatively chaotic public security.

Because the Alice Guild was in the East District, Liu Chi and his group first came to a house in the East District. Perhaps due to its commercial nature, the house seemed a bit crowded and not as big as Liu Chi had imagined.

Liu Chi planned to put a huge statue on the first floor and surround a few large sofas with barriers. He would also prepare a counter on the first floor to directly sell the Lord God's peripheral products. The second floor would be where he and his servants would live.

Liu Chi shook his head, and soon the waitress took the two of them to two other locations. Finally, after Liu Chi thought about it, he chose a house in the residential area in the southern part of Cerro. This place used to be a tavern. The first floor was tall and large, and there were many rooms on the second floor.

After the booking was made, the three returned to Alice Chamber of Commerce to sign the house contract, and Liu Chi eventually won this "abandoned tavern" for one thousand diamond coins.

Liu Chi moved in directly. It is no exaggeration to say that if there are enough manpower and ingredients, this tavern can even open for business directly.

After pacing back and forth on the second floor for a while, Liu Chi finally decided on his own room, which consisted of a living room, a study, a bedroom, and a bathroom.

Following the call of "Master" twice, Liu Chi went downstairs. On the side of the hall, Yang Xi and Milia were sitting on chairs, and there was a table full of dishes on the dining table.

"Who made this?" Liu Chi picked up the chopsticks but didn't start eating right away. As a vampire, there was no need for Millia to cook, and as a young lady, Yang Xi must have never cooked before.

"Of course it's me!" Milia raised her head proudly, "Didn't expect it?"

"Is it edible?" Liu Chi wondered. If it was made by Milia, then she probably had never tasted the food she cooked.

"Yeah! It's delicious." Milia confirmed, "Everyone says the dishes I cook are delicious."

Liu Chi picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth with half belief and half doubt. After chewing it carefully, it was indeed delicious as Milia said. Now he was even more confused. How could a chef who had never tasted his own dishes cook them?

"Is it delicious?" Milia was very proud.

Liu Chi did not ask too many questions about this, and Yang Xi seemed to have tasted the dish made by Milia beforehand and did not react much.

After dinner, the three of them cleared the table, took a bath with the hot water they had boiled in advance, and then rested.

The next day, Liu Chi asked Yang Xi to take down all the things on the second floor, and Liu Chi went out with Milia, who had turned into a tattoo.

Liu Chi found someone to clean up all the things in the original tavern, and then started looking for craftsmen to design according to the building he remembered. Finally, the decoration plan was finalized, and several craftsmen began to decorate the entire house. Liu Chi and Yang Xi also moved back to the previous hotel. Liu Chi’s daily routine was to chat with the two girls and then visit the new home to check on the progress.

Almost a week had passed since they bought the new house. Liu Chi took Yang Xi downstairs as usual. The waiter at the counter changed his usual smile and handed Liu Chi an envelope very seriously.

After a quick read, Liu Chi knew that something might have gone wrong in the palace, and he had finally waited for the chance to enter the palace again.

Liu Chi asked Yang Xi to go back, and he entered the palace alone with the letter. This time he did not stay in the hall, but the king's confidant took Liu Chi directly to the king's office.

"Your Majesty summoned me alone. I guess he has something to tell me?"

The king was looking at the documents in front of him without saying anything. His confidant standing beside him spoke up.

"Due to your previous actions, Duke Vider declared independence and issued a declaration of war to our country."

"Duke Wade?" Liu Chi knew very well that this man was Bart's father. "Why did you issue a challenge? Wouldn't it be better to just fight directly?"

The king's confidant was a young counselor. He naturally knew what Duke Wade meant, but the new baron named Zack in front of him did not understand.

"I'll speak for the king, Baron Zach. You only have two choices now. First, hand over your head. The king will use your head to negotiate peace with Duke Vader. Second, you marry into the royal family and get rid of Vader."
