20-Collecting Intelligence Requires Acting Cute

  If you want to gather information, carrying the Caesar family's badge is definitely not going to work. As soon as people see it, they’ll know your identity, and naturally, they’ll be cautious in their words. So, Kells took off the badge and put it in his bosom. Of course, he would never do something like gathering information from men. However, to strike up a conversation with beautiful girls, with a certain someone’s appearance, it seems he falls short by quite a bit, right?

  “Haha, Fat Dragon, you’ve eaten so many good things; it’s time for you to take the stage. See that female archer over there? She seems easy to talk to. In a moment, you run to her side, and I’ll take the opportunity to strike up a conversation, got it?” Kells dragged out Fat Dragon, who had been lazing in the backpack, and explained the sleazy battle plan to it.

  Raccoons are not commonly seen animals, and moreover, they are difficult to tame. Basically, no one would keep them as pets. Speaking of which, that chubby thing looks very cute and is very appealing to women. Fat Dragon, following Kells’ instructions, ran to the side of that beautiful girl. Sure enough, as soon as the female archer saw the fluffy and chubby Fat Dragon, she immediately picked it up.

  “So cute, oh, whose pet is this? If no one wants it, then you’re mine! Hehe…” Just as she was laughing very happily, a guy with a common face, a loser, appeared in front of her. At a glance, he was the kind of passerby. But what made her feel strange was that the guy was actually staring at her, and his eyes seemed sneaky. “Could it be that the quality of the newcomers in the mercenary group has been getting worse lately?” she thought so.

  This guy wasn’t wearing any mercenary badge; at a glance, it was clear he was a newcomer. But out of politeness, that female archer still asked very courteously, “Hello, is there something?”

  “Hehe, Miss Archer, hello. It’s my pet; it accidentally ran out. If it’s convenient…” Roughly meaning that this loser was preparing to take back his pet, but the female archer had a look of distrust. “Well, how can you prove that it’s your pet?” she asked.

  “It listens to me. If you don’t believe it, I can perform a little…”

  “Oh?” The female archer became interested. Generally, mercenaries have some understanding of wild animals. Raccoons are animals with a wild nature that’s hard to tame. To make it obedient is really a strange thing, but I’ve heard that there’s an ancient profession of beast tamers who can do this. To show that what he said was true, Kells had Fat Dragon do a few endearing actions, like rolling over, standing up, begging for food, similar to training a dog. Fat Dragon was so depressed, ah, with such a fat body doing these actions was practically killing it. Even Kells felt a bit of soreness all over his body…

  The raccoon was miraculously tamed. That female archer had to admit it was his pet. However, the two immediately had a common topic. The female archer was very interested in Kells’ miraculous beast-taming ability; perhaps he was the inheritor of that ancient profession.

  They found a resting place for afternoon tea and chatted idly for a while. Kells found the right timing to get to the point: “I heard that Young Master Daniel has taken in a new attendant. Have you seen him?” Speaking of which, during the time the two were together, Fat Dragon was always being held by the beautiful female archer. This made a certain someone extremely envious, but unfortunately, at this time, the feeling couldn’t be shared, infinite resentment…

  This topic seemed to touch a sore spot. The female archer was stunned for a moment, but after a short while, she relaxed her vigilance. It was still thanks to Fat Dragon, ah. She believed that ancient beast tamers were all kind people because beast taming requires immense love to achieve.

  “You’re also a newcomer, right? Don’t spread this matter recklessly, oh. Actually, I also heard it from others, but the manager has instructed that rumors about Young Master Daniel’s attendant are absolutely not allowed to be spread. If discovered, one will be expelled from the mercenary group. I don’t want to receive such punishment.” As she spoke, the female archer lowered her head to look at her mercenary badge. It was F-rank. She was quite strong. Archer is a basic profession. To be tested into F-rank, one needs to be a high-tier professional. However, if one can advance to the archer’s superior profession, sniper, even a mid-tier professional can be tested into C-rank profession.

  Kells sniffed out a dangerous atmosphere. Generally, things that are hidden have the most problems. “The previous attendant sacrificed himself.” Daniel’s words appeared in his mind again.

  “Miss Archer, I’m just curious. I also want to be Young Master Daniel’s attendant. The young master’s father is the city lord of Leicas.” Kells deliberately showed a face full of admiration.

  “Don’t… people will die!” The female archer suddenly realized she had let slip, but it was already too late. Kells pursued, “Why do you say that, ah? I’ve already told Young Master Daniel, and he said to let me consider it first.”

  “Ah! How could you request such a thing, ah? Young Master Daniel has already changed several attendants. It’s said they all died of unknown causes. The news is tightly sealed, but inside the mercenary group, still, no one is willing to be the young master’s attendant. Hehe, but such a handsome guy, if there weren’t these rumors, I would be very willing…” As she said this, she even blushed a little embarrassedly.

  “No way, how are women in big cities like this? As soon as they see a handsome guy, they have this expression…” Kells was burning with jealousy, ah. This woman was only focused on teasing Fat Dragon and almost didn’t even give him a proper look. As soon as Daniel was mentioned, she actually blushed!

  “Handsome guys all have thorns, ah!” Out of dissatisfaction, Kells still said such words.

  “Those with thorns are more challenging, right? Oh, right, if you really become Young Master Daniel’s attendant, if there’s a chance, you must help me introduce to the young master. If we can have a private date or something, that would be even better. I will definitely thank you.” The female archer’s eyes were filled with infinite expectation. Finally, she looked at Kells properly.

  Wanting to cry but having no tears, ah, Kells’ heart had already cooled thoroughly. The seeming concern just now only lasted a few minutes. As soon as handsome guys were mentioned, everything was forgotten. “This old man will die, oh, introduce my ass!” He wanted to get angry, but he couldn’t get angry. Kells, this person, never quibbles with women. However, he did bear this grudge. He decided to find an opportunity to punish this naive archer, like stealing all her little panties or something…

  Actually, just now, this guy had already made arrangements with Fat Dragon. When the female archer stood up, Fat Dragon would pull her short skirt to attract attention. Speaking of which, the internal facilities of the Wind Spirit Mercenary Group were very good. Every section of the wall had a fireplace for heating. Inside the headquarters, there was fundamentally no need to wear thick clothes. Moreover, female mercenaries were relatively bold, so leather short skirts became the universal equipment. The matters afterward don’t need to be elaborated. This guy, since birth, has never failed, I’m saying. “Thanks to the fireplace, thanks to the short skirt!” The moment he got the little panties, Kells still didn’t forget to say a few words of sentiment. They were white, I’m saying, with a bit of stain, probably caused when she blushed. Immediately, they were classified by this guy as C-grade collection!

  Since coming to the big city, Kells felt that his taste should also be improved. For example, the original classification of collections was very vulgar, ah. Because of chasing fashion, Kells re-established the grading system for collections, the same as the mercenary system, because the entire De Rossi Continent was popular with the mercenary trend, you know. Even the games that children usually play are related to mercenaries…

  When that female archer left, she kept feeling strange, as if it was much cooler than usual, I’m saying. “Could it be that the fireplace in the mercenary headquarters forgot to be managed?” she thought so…

  After the female archer left, Kells sat there alone thinking, “Death from unknown causes? What are you up to, Daniel? This guy called me to go tonight, I’m saying. Should I go or not? If it’s something dangerous, wouldn’t I be done for? But he’s the city lord’s son; I don’t seem to be able to avoid it, ah. If I’m framed with some crime, even my dad and mom would be implicated, and also Lina and Eliya. Is this bastard doing it on purpose? Actually clamping me down tightly!”

  “Wait! That’s not right, ah. I don’t have any abilities; why is Daniel, this bastard, trying so hard to win me over? Is it just to lure monsters? It feels like there are many secrets hidden behind the incident. That kid is still a member of the church; so many secrets. Big cities are really complicated, and the girls are so fiery, each and every one loves handsome guys. Damn it, isn’t this just like Anda?” Kells suddenly stood up gloomily. Everywhere is the era of tall, rich, and handsome, ah. When can losers rise up?

  After tossing about for an afternoon, Kells didn’t come to any meaningful conclusion. However, escaping seemed impossible. Night had already fallen; it was time for him to go to Daniel’s room. The one leading the way was still that female attendant from the morning. Because of her previously revealed domineering aura, Kells really didn’t dare to make a move. Actually, the opportunity was very good, I’m saying. She was always in front, also wearing a short skirt, I’m saying… “Thanks to the fireplace, thanks to the short skirt…” Kells had already fallen in love with short skirts. This was the clothing with the highest success rate for getting hands on. He could even mysteriously pilfer while the other party was moving close to him, and after it was done, the other party still didn’t know anything. Of course, this has a premise: the other party has to be an ordinary person. If he encounters a martial artist with quick reactions, he wouldn’t be so lucky. In a place like the mercenary group, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Kells felt that the female attendant in front of him didn’t seem easy to provoke.

  Before he could finish savoring the details, the female attendant had already opened Daniel’s room door. His room was on the third floor; without a doubt, this was the best VIP suite. Kells glanced around; it was all luxurious noble style, ah. On the walls, there were even several famous paintings with heroic themes hung. Looking from the living room inward, there were many rooms. He alone occupied a place that could accommodate at least 10 people. Daniel was sitting in the middle of the living room and smiled after seeing him come in.

  “It seems nobles are very enjoyment-oriented, I’m saying. Does this kid Daniel not have female attendants or something? Or guard maids responsible for all food and daily living?” Kells only saw Daniel alone and couldn’t help but think so.

  After the female attendant left, Daniel spoke, “Do you find it strange, Kells? There are neither female attendants nor guard maids responsible for all food and daily living?” He said out loud what was in Kells’ heart, resembling the all-knowing Heavenly Father.

  “…” Kells was already speechless. This Daniel seemed like a parasite in other people’s stomachs.

  “Hehe, actually, there’s one thing you don’t know about…” Daniel leaned back on the exquisite leather sofa, his face full of mystery as he said.
