#384. I’ve got a problem.
* * *
When the whole world is excited by the appearance of 《LE & IN》.
The Black Dragon Clan, the White Dragon Clan, and the Infinity Guild were running as hectic as the other clans.
Even supplying food to a country and securing a food distribution network is a national business.
In order to advance to the Holy League and the Chinese Federation overnight, everyone had to run around with their backs bent.
In particular, Youyin, who had been helping Li Qingyu with his overdue work, was almost skin to bone due to the increased work.
Even he, a class master, was at such a level that the others didn’t have to say anything.
But he is the culprit behind the commotion.
There was a quiet silence in the secret room on the lowest floor of the Leviathan, which was the culprit of all this.
“How are you going to do it?”
A dark red-haired woman observing a large cauldron that exudes a mysterious aura even at first sight and writing something on the parchment.
Shir replied, taking off his glasses.
“It’s still stable.”
“I don’t think it’s necessary to supplement, right?”
“At least as long as this system is maintained, yes. Even if we don’t offer more sacrifices, Dagda’s cauldron won’t suddenly stop.”
“Hmm, is that more than expected?”
Limon, who was watching with his arms crossed, gave a brief admiration.
《LE & IN》 that supplies unlimited food Exactly, the power of this cauldron was so great that it threw even the other members of the Seven Dragons into confusion.
However, Dagda’s cauldron is, in the end, the reproduction of a divine object.
how to remodel
no matter what power
It was a product of magic that required a price.
That was what Limon and Sir were most concerned about.
To produce infinite food requires an infinite price.
It was close to impossible even for a legendary archwitch or sword master to continue paying the price to feed a population of over one billion people.
Nevertheless, there is one reason why Dagda’s cauldron is working properly.
Because they weren’t paying the price now.
“I was surprised too. I didn’t know that replacing faith with membership would be so efficient.”
People can’t even imagine.
The money they spent on their 《LE & IN》 membership.
The fact that it itself has become a master of magic, being converted in Dagda’s cauldron and giving birth to the food they eat.
Limón, on the other hand, spoke indifferently.
“What are you talking about? It is a long-standing tradition that has been handed down since the Silver Age that large donations rather than sincere prayers are evidence of faith.”
“Still, in the old days, children had a clear object of faith, a sacred altar, and a form of solemn ritual.”
“It is still the same. It’s just that the object of that faith, the altar of money, and the card and bankbook ceremony have turned into payment.”
“…Did you buy and sell sacredness and solemnity?”
“After killing them, even the gods weren’t very sacred or solemn, were they?”
“Oh, isn’t it against the law for you to say that?”
whether offering a sacrifice to the gods.
whether you pay by card.
Shir laughed when he said that it was the same in terms of emptying his pockets to get what he wanted.
A truly absurd speculation.
However, the fact that it was a sword master who had even cut down a god who said that gave such an exposé more persuasive power.
“After all, money itself has become a religion for kids these days.”
“That’s how it is.”
“…The era is coming when pieces of paper with numbers on them instead of shiny gold will replace God. Really, the world is something to live for a long time and see.”
From the distant silver age.
As a mythological witch who lived and breathed with the incarnation as a half-god and half-human lineage.
Feeling a sense of alienation and feeling bitter, Limon kept his silence.
Even if not as much as Sir, as a sword master who has lived for hundreds of years, he could roughly guess her feelings.
No matter how hard you try to live in line with the times, you are left with yourself and ahead of the times.
It was the fate of those who lived through eternity like him and Sir.
“Well, isn’t that why you never get bored no matter how long you live?”
“yes.”
However, Syrr quickly erased the bitterness and put on an excited expression, and Limon took it for granted.
accept that change.
Feeling joy rather than despair.
Enjoying catching up with the times again.
This is because it is an indispensable quality for an immortal and a mindset that must be possessed.
…Those who failed to do so could become immortals, but in the end they died without living a long life.
“Anyway, this Black Dragon Princess is truly amazing. To come up with such a bold idea.”
That’s why Sir admired it.
This is because Li Qingyu was the one who first devised the system of substituting magic masters with money.
Of course, it was thanks to the collaboration between the legendary archwitch Sir and Limon that he was able to apply it.
But even taking that into consideration, LE & IN issued memberships and reached out to the financial industry.
Even in a situation where everything was uncertain, Li Qingyu’s ability to respond with thorough preparation was phenomenal beyond admiration.
“Well, the princesses of this generation have a unique side.”
“It’s not just something special. Baby, it’s to the point where you took the princess of the Seven Dragons as your bride.”
“…”
At Syr’s point, Limon remained silent.
support the world peace plan.
Abandon the beliefs of the Seven Dragons.
developing the power of nuclear fusion.
Abandon the future you foresaw.
Destroying the 10th Guild and so on.
The achievements made by the princesses of each clan were clearly noticeable even in the history of the Seven Dragons, which spanned over a thousand years.
Of course, many of them were the result of being entangled with Limon.
However, even considering that, it was undeniable that their abilities and character were outstanding among the previous princesses of the Seven Dragons.
So it was.
The reason Sir had to add one more word.
“Honestly, it was a bit unexpected. After what happened to her, I can’t even imagine that you’ll get a bride again…”
“Grandma.”
before the words were finished.
Limon interrupted Syrr in a low voice.
And he looked at her with a rare chill in his golden eyes, which were always cold, and continued talking quietly.
“If you don’t want to end up making fun of your mouth for no reason, be careful what you say.”
As if to prove that it is not just a verbal warning.
Cyr glanced at Limon’s hand on the handle of the sword and smiled.
“Don’t be so bloody. I am a slave who must obey my master’s orders.”
“If you are a slave, you have to decide what to say and what not to say.”
“That’s what I said with enough cover. Aren’t we the only ones here anyway?”
“…”
“In that sense, if I risk my life and ask for one thing, please be careful.”
As a legendary witch and prophet before being a slave.
And as an immortal who has lived several times longer than Limon and watched his life more intense and difficult than anyone else.
Shir said with a bewitching smile.
“Because if I get caught up in your infatuation right now, neither I nor the mouse or bird may die without knowing.”
I don’t know if it’s an ordinary woman.
If the princesses of the Seven Dragons get caught up in a love affair, they don’t have the confidence to survive.
So, as a master who is obliged to take care of his slave’s life, please do not do anything that could cause his own death.
Let’s frown for a moment while watching Sir speak with a lot of sincerity like a joke.
Limon said sullenly.
“I’d like to ask you not to worry unnecessarily. Even if it’s not as much as you, I’ve had enough of my age.”
“I mean, thank you, but what can you do about not being relieved when you think of your youth?”
“…Haha, do you really want to lose?”
“Whoa, I guess you are ashamed of the old days, too.”
It’s like cutting as much as you want to cut.
When Limon clicked his tongue while watching Sir just smile.
His pager rang.
[Could the swordsman come over for a while?]
“What’s going on, princess?”
Limon inadvertently asked the question with a puzzled look on the sudden contact.
She spoke to him in a slightly embarrassed voice.
[I have a little trouble.]
* * *
Since I was sick before.
Li Qing-yu, who was busy with overdue work and the business expansion of 《LE & IN》, was able to spend time with Limon for the first time in a long time.
But she couldn’t be happier about it.
It wasn’t just because he couldn’t spend time with Limon alone because of Shir and Yunakyung’s obstructions.
It’s because the business that called him was so troublesome.
“Hmm….”
From stationery to envelope ink.
It’s been a long time since I read the letter that is buried in luxurious side in every way and frown.
Limon clicked his tongue lightly.
“To ask for the purchase of shares in exchange for the performance of hunting the Liberation Brigade. It’s definitely bothered me.”
“It is difficult in many ways.”
Li Qingyu sighed softly.
During the last meeting of the Seven Dragons, Limon offered the right to trade shares as a bounty in return for hunting down the Liberation Brigade, and the other princesses readily accepted the condition.
The Seven Dragon Group is a deformed conglomerate in which each princess owns 100% of the holding company’s shares.
That’s why there was no way to secure each other’s shares without this kind of condition.
It wasn’t a bad thing.
Because Li Mon and Li Qing-Wui had the opportunity to move the Seven Dragons to keep the Liberation Brigade in check.
In fact, Yekathrice and Charlotte have been hunting the Liberation Brigade diligently in their own ways.
Thanks to that, it was the home of the liberation brigade in a few months, but of course more than ten were destroyed.
Even dozens of executives had their heads blown off.
Considering that there are only a handful of precedents in finding their home base over the past few decades, it was a truly unconventional achievement.
The problem is that Yekathrice is now demanding the price.
“Honestly, it was unexpected.”
“Is that so?”
“I thought there was still time before asking to buy your share.”
“Certainly there is a sense of haste.”
Limon shook his head.
Although the Silver Dragon and Gold Dragon clans are eager to hunt for the Liberation Brigade, they have not caught any specters.
It’s certainly not far ahead in a stake battle.
Moreover, it was unexpected that Catherine, not Charlotte, requested the purchase of shares. Of course, as long as they are allies
, Yekathrice
‘s share will soon become Charlotte’s friendly share…
“Isn’t that surprising?”
It is rather normal for the Silver Dragon Princess to have strange thoughts, if not for other princesses.
In that respect, Limon accepted the situation calmly.
It’s just that the timing was sooner than expected, because this was the result that had been decided since the time the bounty was placed on the liberation brigade.
Rather, what was unexpected was the target rather than the request to buy shares.
Because the person Yekatriche requested to buy the stake in was neither Lee Ching-wee nor Leviathan.
So it was.
The reason Limon looked back at the white-haired girl who kept silent with an expressionless face next to him.
“Silly princess, what are you going to do? Apparently, Princess Silver wants to bully you.”
The target designated by the Silver Dragon Princess.
The owner of Tiamat, the world’s largest conglomerate in cultural and artistic businesses.
Ainsha listened to the question and looked at Limon blankly before opening his mouth bluntly.
“Stop Yekathrice.”
“Of course, it would be nice if the shares were not taken away, but is that possible?”
“It’s not about stakes. It means preventing things from happening because of Yekathrice.”
“huh?”
When Limon was puzzled by that sudden statement.
Li Qingyu made a strange expression.
It was because I could guess why she was saying this out of nowhere.
“Did you see something Ainsha?”
“I saw what would happen after Yekathrice bought the stake.”
“What kind of future do you want to block because you saw it?”
Looking at Ainsha, who foresaw the future as the best prophet in the world before being the president of Tiamat, Limon looked even more puzzled.
Although it is rare for the White Dragon Clan to step forward to change the future.
It’s because they couldn’t guess what the future they were trying to change by leaving even the crisis of selling Tiamat’s stocks.
To him, Ainsha revealed the future she foresaw with an expressionless face as always.
“A future in which half the people of the Russian Khanate will die.”
