Chapter 388 46. Time to make money
Annan remained calm under the gaze of the colleges, thinking that he was being stigmatized.
The evaluation of the Minister of Etiquette is unfair. He agrees that what is spent is money, while Ilimoyas will only keep the treasure under her wings.
But Isabel's uncle has already said something else: "You have survived in the bottom nest for a day, what do you think of the existence of the bottom nest?"
Annan thought to himself, are you selecting a champion or a minister?
But since the Ministry of Etiquette asked this, does it mean that the imperial capital plans to deal with the bottom nest?
Still answering in order, the captain of the Royal Academy of Magic in Montreal was the first to say: "The Bottom Nest is full of filth and evil, and it is very close to the imperial capital. We should take over the Bottom Nest, and the Royal Academy of Magic will be the one to clean up the Bottom Nest. The staff!”
The Royal Academy of Magic in Montreal is actually off topic, but Mr. Minister was noncommittal, and the subsequent academy became an answer on how to deal with the bottom nest.
Their answers all had their own characteristics. For example, Puddingburg Monastery suggested spreading faith, Freya Holy Academy suggested relocating the Underhive people, and Habar Knight Academy finally did not mention bloody cleansing, but it was almost the same—— The armored girl said that all the Sinful Underhive people would be hanged.
When it was the turn of Solz Academy of Magic, Annan wisely kept his mouth shut and let the first nine colleges finish speaking. When it was Annan's turn, his answer was not so "condescending": "There are some people in the bottom nest. People are guilty, but some of them have never done bad things... The imperial capital should take over the bottom nest, the bad people should be punished, and the good people should take over my territory."
"Is this your method? We all stand in the front and contribute to the empire. Only you hide behind and let the imperial capital take action." A sarcastic voice floated from an academy.
Onyx Knight Academy? Have you ever provoked them?
"You'd better be really willing." Annan looked at them, "I dare to accept them as subjects, do you really dare to take the lead in the imperial capital?"
"Why not! Allegiance to the Empire!”
“Allegiance to the Empire!”
The students of Onyx Knight Academy roared.
Annan did not give a boring rebuttal, but told a story: The rat tide in the north was approaching, and the imperial military went to a city to recruit troops and asked all professionals to join the team. The local residents raised their hands in welcome. Then all the soldiers were asked to join the ranks, and the local residents raised their feet in welcome. When it came time to ask everyone to pay an extra gold coin in taxes, the local residents raised their hands and feet in opposition. ”
“Because they really have a gold nugget. ”
“We will become the sharp blade of the empire! "The students who provoked Annan were provoked by Annan, and they shouted.
"You'd better do what you say. ”
There is no reason for the Empire to adopt a bunch of students' bad ideas. It doesn't matter even if the colleges are really included in the cleanup team, Annan will already be a lord by then. When the colleges came to Annan to prove themselves, he could also comment as a superior: "You have done a good job."
"The last round of the top ten competition will start in ten days."< br>
After saying the last words, the Minister of Ceremony disappeared behind the balcony.
The buzz formed by the convergence of conversations resurfaced in the street, and Annan breathed a sigh of relief - he still had Isabel's magic props in his pocket.
They are discussing the final top ten and the dark horses that broke into them, Bear Gordon Knight Academy and Solz Magic Academy.
I've never heard of the former, and the latter is fucking hateful.
But the students in the college were in high spirits. Vice Dean Boris was as happy as a two-hundred-pound child and couldn't wait to go back to the manor to tell the dean the good news.
"You go back first." Annan said.
“Aren’t you going back with us?” the vice-dean asked humbly.
“I still have some personal things to do.”
For example, asking for debt.
"I'm with you." Alice said.
"No need."
Annan separated from the academy, left the Etiquette Street under negative gazes, got on a rental carriage and headed all the way to Suo, one of the passages leading to the bottom nest in the Imperial Capital. The ruins of Lundor.
Solunduo Garden, once one of the famous places in the imperial capital, was burned down due to royal disputes in the old days. When the new emperor came to power, Solundo Garden was never restored due to some sensitive issues. As time went by, here Become one of the passages to the bottom nest.
There are more people than expected around the ruins passage. They are soliciting business and selling items here. The first level is the bottom city area, where access to the surface will not be restricted.
Annan stood in front of the passage for a while, refusing several groups of brokers to woo him. He saw the crowd in front of the passage disperse in panic, and the earth element escorting Isabel appeared.
“Are you waiting for me?”
Lively Isabel jumped out.
Annan nodded. The imperial capital does not allow the use of magic and magical creations. He asked the earth elements to return to the small town and asked Isabel: "Do you want to go home or the etiquette department."
"Do you want to go back? I Can I follow you?"
"No."
"Okay."
Annan left the ruins and found Isabel following him.
"I'm shopping... Huh? Why are you here too?" Isabel said.
Annan had no choice but to let her follow him. He went to the auction house first and took out Isabel's things one by one and handed them to the appraiser.
"Are you short of money? Give these back to me and I will give you money!" Isabel stopped Annan.
“This is not good...”
“Just sell my things in front of me?”
Annan thought for a while, the auction house would not damage his reputation, but the Minister of Ceremony would really refuse to return it.
However, Annan changed it to take away the things Isabel didn't care about, and signed the IOU and returned it to her if she did.
Coming out of the auction house, Isabel was looking forward to new excitement: "Where should we go next?"
"Ask for debt."
First of all, I owe the most, almost. He was carried into the top ten Khabar Knight Academy by Annan.
After Annan inquired about the mansion where they were staying, he went straight there, but was blocked from the door as an uninvited guest.
"You are not welcome here." The strong man blocked the door like a wall
"Do you know who is next to me?" Annan asked.
Of course the strong man knew about Isabel, and showed his fear: "Welcome to Khabar Knight Academy as a guest...Annan, you have to leave!"
Annan said nonchalantly: "You rejected me , the devil will be looking for you next..."
In the end, the armor girl came out and said that she had notified the academy and family, and they would get it together before the start of the top ten competition.
"What's your relationship with that idiot?" Annan asked before leaving.
“We are considered teammates.”
“Stay away from idiots, you will be infected.”
I actually want to violate the devil’s contract...
Next, Annan was miserable and happy—painful as the colleges demanded debts one after another, happy as the treasure chest in the carriage became more and more full. The carriage was full after just half of a dozen colleges had requested it. Annan had no choice but to make an appointment with Isabel to continue collecting debts together tomorrow before parting ways.
Annan returned to the manor. Just as the deputy dean couldn't wait to tell the dean the good news, Annan couldn't wait to tell Olmedo the good news.
