Chapter 852: The Truth 1 No One Believes
Chapter 852: No one believes the truth
My dear Director, do you have any serious misunderstanding about me?
Seeing the red-haired chief's expression of "It's okay, just say it, I can bear it", Leon's mouth twitched involuntarily, and then he complained speechlessly:
"The Kingdom of Miko is doing great! Chief, you made it seem like I was going to kill everyone I saw!"
"Uh-huh."
After responding noncommittally, the red-haired chief raised his hand and pointed at the "ruins" behind Leon.
"Behind you is the altar for the Witch King's ritual, right? That's a grand ritual that only happens once every hundred years in the Witch Country. How did it get into this state?"
"Forehead……"
Hearing this, Leon looked back and found that his "call background" was indeed a bit of a mess, and then he couldn't help scratching the back of his head.
"I just dismantled the altar, but there was a reason for it..."
"Yeah, I believe you."
After responding insincerely, the red-haired director sighed and said:
"The Great Witch King is gone, right?"
"Indeed...but she died of old age. She would have died soon even if I hadn't come."
"And then? Her daughter inherited the throne, right?"
"Yes, who else will take the position?"
"Then, you and that Princess Catelyn... um... Queen Catelyn, are you on good terms with each other? And are there rumors going around?"
"Forehead……"
Looking back at the members of the major associations who were taken away by the guards, and seeing their actions and expressions pointing at him but not daring to speak out, Leon could not help but remain silent for a moment, and then tried his best to explain:
"We... have been through thick and thin together for several days, so we must have some kind of relationship. As for the gossip, it's mainly because she came to see me after taking a shower last night, and many people saw her on the way, but we actually have something serious to do..."
"Okay then, let's put the gossip aside for now."
The red-haired chief sighed and said:
"Let me ask you, once she secures her throne, will she immediately issue a decree to get closer to you and Queen Veronica? Will she start all-round cooperation with your kingdom?"
"Well... our kingdom has grain and mines, as well as the technology of the Korok Kingdom. We are originally very good partners. In addition, there is a friendship between Caitlin and me, so... it seems normal for Caitlin to make such a decision?"
Bah! Normal ass!
The red-haired chief couldn't help rolling his eyes at Leon, who retorted every time he said something, pretending to be extremely innocent and even a little aggrieved.
If it were normal, how come you got all the good things? You bastard seems to have obsessive-compulsive disorder. Every time you go out on a mission, you will definitely try your best to steal things from Queen Veronica's pocket.
I've been on three missions and replaced three kings. Including the time when the Iron Princess attacked the palace, you've replaced four kings of the Twelve Kingdoms! And all of them are queens! You're really... If this is all a coincidence, then I'll chew all the wine bottles in the warehouse!
"It's whatever you say!"
After glaring at Leon unhappily, the red-haired chief put his hand on his forehead and sighed:
"After all, it was an attack by the Pillar God. You are lucky to have returned safely. Compared with your ability to escape the Pillar God's attack alive, these are all trivial matters... By the way, how did you repel Wuyouzhishu?"
"I caught her."
"Oh, so it's...what did you say?"
"I caught her."
After repeating what he had just said, Leon moved the small mirror to a different angle and pointed it at the three-headed black dog lying on the ground groaning due to indigestion. He raised his finger and pointed at the dog's belly and said, "I can't kill Wu Youzhishu yet, so I can only think of a way to lock her up. Although I captured her, Matthew should be the one who made the greatest contribution. If he hadn't carried Wu Youzhishu's body back..."
"You captured a Pillar God?!?!?!"
Faced with such shocking news, even though he had been as steady as an old man for many years... the red-haired chief of the cleaning staff still couldn't help but feel his head buzzing. He couldn't even hear what Leon said. He repeated with shock in his eyes:
"Not only did you defeat Wu You Zhi Shu, but you also captured her?"
"Matthew and I caught her together, and Matthew might even be more crucial."
After correcting the red-haired chief's statement, Leon hesitated for a moment, then asked:
"Director, how is the injury that Lord Jinniu suffered when he ascended to the palace? Is he healed?"
"It's about half done... Why are you asking this? Do you want her to help forge the anomaly?"
"Yes"
Leon nodded and said hesitantly:
"In addition to Wuyouzhishu, I also obtained a lot of precious materials this time, but the quantity is a little too much. If I want to forge a complete set, I am worried that Your Excellency Jinniu will not be able to withstand the consumption of high-intensity use of secret techniques."
"Don't worry, it won't happen."
The red-haired director shook his head upon hearing this and explained with some amusement:
“Although Lord Jinniu was seriously injured at the time and his soul and body are not yet fully synchronized, he is still a director after all. Even if you capture seven or eight true gods and send them over together, she will still be able to handle it.”
"But I've captured nearly forty True Gods. She might not be able to handle it, right?"
"what?!"
"To be precise, the bodies of thirty-nine true gods were killed, but the souls of fifteen of them were released. So there are twenty-four complete true gods and fifteen bodies left after the true gods descended."
"ah?!?!"
"What's left is an entire execution platform where thirty-nine true gods died, thirty-nine wooden stakes stained with the blood of gods, a sniper rifle that killed thirty-nine true gods, and a ritual carpet soaked in the blood of gods... These should be a set. Can Your Excellency Taurus forge all of these together?"
"ah?!?!?!"
Humph! I'll let you put the blame on me!
Looking at the director in the mirror with eyes wide open, unable to say anything except "Ah", Leon, who was secretly happy, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then said in surprise:
"Director? Why do you keep your mouth open? Is it because the temperature is too high and you need to use your tongue to dissipate the heat?"
"..."
Bah! You are the dog!
After hearing the meaning of Leon's words, the red-haired director quickly closed his mouth and glared at him unhappily.
"You scared me! Don't joke about this kind of thing anymore. You made it sound so real that I thought you really killed so many true gods!"
"I'm not kidding, what I said just now is true."
"Yeah, it's all true. Half of the King Slayer Club was destroyed by you alone. Our Leon is really amazing~"
After imitating Leon's behavior and saying something sarcastic, the red-haired director, who had calmed down again, breathed a sigh of relief, unscrewed a bottle of wine and took a sip, then said with a sense of relief:
"Anyway, I'm so glad you're okay. You haven't made any movement for over a week. I can't even drink the wine I bought... Wait, Mr. Taurus seems to have something to say."
