I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

Valkam!

Viscount Manor.

When Renault saw Laura, he finally felt relieved.

Anno handed Yale and Robert over to Reno.

Under the latter's questioning gaze, he recounted the details of the mission.

After hearing this, Renault was both relieved that Anno had arrived at the right time and had the two hostages taken to the cell, considering how to use them.

Anno didn't care about any of that; he just wanted to get his payment from Renault and then go back to rest.

Except for a short nap yesterday afternoon, Anno has been fighting and traveling the past few days.

He's starting to feel the pressure too.

Besides Liz, there are Lü Yan and Lu Zhishang.

The other adventurers have already gone home.

"Money, money, money! Do you think I'd skimp on you? Are you obsessed with money?!"

Renault glared at Anno in annoyance and told his butler, Scott, to bring the reward and give it to Anno.

"Viscount Xie, may you have sweet dreams tonight!"

Anno took the money bag, counted the gold coins, and said goodbye to Renault with a smile.

Renault glanced at Laura beside him, then suddenly said to Anno, "It's so late, why don't we rest at the manor?"

Upon hearing Renault's words, Laura glanced shyly at Anno, then lowered her head and rubbed the hem of her skirt.

Every young girl dreams of love!

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhishang, who was guarding outside the door, closed his eyes and stood with one hand in front of his chest.

"Amitabha!"

Lu Yan immediately became anxious.

She felt a tightness in her chest and rushed into the open reception room, bowing respectfully to Anno, saying, "Guild Master, the Adventurers' Guild has some urgent matters that require your attention. Please don't forget!"

Seeing this, Renault felt somewhat dissatisfied with Lü Yan.

But he knew that Lü Yan, Lu Zhishang, and others were Anuo's confidants.

Moreover, their combat strength is not weak.

Some people gave nicknames to the people around Anno.

Lü Yan's nickname is "The Piercing Spear"!

The phrase used to describe the power of Lü Yan's spear throw is actually a metaphor for "judgment."

Having a nickname indicates that one's abilities are recognized by others.

For example, Xue Feibai's "Absolutely Ferocious Tiger", Lu Zhishang's "Destructive Dragon", and Geng Qingxue's "Explosive Witch".

Therefore, Renault did not blame Lü Yan.

However, the opponent's performance made Renault somewhat worried about Laura.

"It seems we need to have Laura reach out to Anno and improve their relationship."

Renault knew that Anno was not quite in love with Laura.

But such a good son-in-law is not someone you can just give up on.

feeling.

That can be cultivated gradually!

Anno naturally knew what Renault meant by asking him to stay.

However, as a fan, he really doesn't like Laura.

"Thank you very much. However, the Adventurers' Guild isn't too far from here, so I'll go back and take care of some guild matters!"

Anno politely declined Renault's offer and then left with his entourage.

"Father, does Brother Anuo dislike me?"

Laura watched Anno's departing figure, biting her lip, and said aggrievedly.

The sight of her trying so hard to hold back her tears made Renault feel a pang of heartache.

"My darling daughter, you're so beautiful, how could that boy dislike you?"

It's just a boy's shyness!

Don't cry, don't cry.

Don't worry, with me here, I'll definitely find a way to get you two together.

"Um!"

Laura wiped away her tears, clenched her fists, and encouraged herself, "Lola will try her best too! I will definitely make Anno my knight!"

......

the other side.

On the way back, Lü Yan asked, seemingly casually, "Anno, what exactly do Viscount Renault and Miss Laura mean?"

Why did I let you stay overnight?

"You didn't do anything to Miss Laura, did you?"

"Don't overthink it!"

Anno rubbed his forehead, looking a bit of a headache, and explained, "Actually, Renault wants me to be his live-in son-in-law."

"A live-in son-in-law? Hahahaha..."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhishang patted his belly and burst into laughter.

When no one else is around, Anuo and Lu Zhishang are quite relaxed with each other.

"What's so funny?"

Lu Yan frowned and looked at Anno, advising, "Anno, as a nobleman, Viscount Renault's actions are all for personal gain."

He's asking you to be his son-in-law because he wants the Adventurers' Guild to become part of his faction.

Don't fall for Laura's tricks!

Anuo gave Lü Yan a strange look and teased, "If you won't let me find a wife, then will you be my wife?"

This was purely a joke.

Even Lu Zhishang could tell that it was a joke.

but......

Clang!

A long spear fell to the ground.

Anuo and Lu Zhishang turned around and looked at Lü Yan with a puzzled expression.

When Lü Yan saw An Nuo looking over, she shyly turned her head away.

The full moon hangs high in the sky, and a gentle night breeze caresses it.

The tall, ponytail-wearing beauty used her hands to tuck the hair from her forehead behind her ears, then put her hands behind her back.

He tapped the ground repeatedly with the toes of his right foot, his voice barely audible, "Well... it's not impossible!"

"What did you say?" Anno asked loudly, not having heard clearly.

Lü Yan then realized what she had just said.

Blushing, she used her foot to hook the spear on the ground and ran ahead in a flash.

"What's wrong with her?" Lu Zhishang asked, pointing at Lü Yan's back.

"I don't know!"

Anno scratched his head and looked at Liz beside him.

Liz snorted and walked to the front as well.

Lu Zhishang nudged Anuo on the shoulder and asked, "Anuo, I've always wanted to ask, who exactly is this cloaked figure?"

"She's actually one of my summoned creatures, just a bit special. Just treat her as a contracted entity!"

"Are contracted creatures only allowed to obey their master's commands?"

"That's right!"

"So this contracted object is a monster?"

"Succubus!"

"female?"

"nonsense!"

"Living in the same room with you every day?"

"Isn't this because they're worried about her revealing her identity and causing panic!"

"Hiss~, nothing happened, right?"

Not yet!

"temporary?"

"No, why are you, a monk, asking about these things?"

"What is a monk?"

"Monks are... unable to marry!"

......

They made their way back to the Adventurers' Guild.

Lu Zhishang went into his room.

After washing up, he was very sleepy, but he couldn't fall asleep no matter what he did in bed.

He sat up and looked at the bright moon outside, a wave of sadness washing over him.

This sadness has no origin.

Lu Zhishang looked sadly at the two pillows on the bed.

One is his, and the other is his too!

.....

After returning to her room, Anno opened the storage ring that Phoebe had stolen from Robert.

There were ten large boxes inside the storage ring.

Each box contained about ten small bottles, each about the size of a palm.

Five boxes contained blue medicine, and five boxes contained red medicine.

"They're all potions, are they for restoring health and mana?"

Anno didn't know much about this.

In this poor place of Valkam, there weren't many merchants selling potions.

I just don't know what grade these potions are.

A level one potion only costs a few gold coins.

However, a single bottle of a fourth-tier potion costs at least a thousand gold coins!

"I need to build the Adventurer's Core Hut near the church and buy materials for the Divine Array, which will cost money."

Anno put away the medicine with satisfaction.

The matter is now mostly resolved.

Tomorrow, we can start preparing to expand the Adventurers' Guild!
