Chapter 112 Exposed
The sales of magic items are very good, and there is no need to worry about selling them. Even if Pei Renli doesn't shout hard, the business will still be prosperous. The adventurers are still arriving one after another, and the inventory has been sold out, and it only takes less than one morning.
time.
After a rough calculation of the turnover, the net profit was more than sixty gold coins. I feel that this is more profitable than being an adventurer.
The material cost of magic consumables such as blazing glue is very low, and most of the materials for low-level magic potions such as healing potions are collected from the sea of trees. They cost no money at all. No wonder you feel like you are making a huge profit.
The most important thing is that Pei Renli can borrow the school's alchemy equipment for free. If he is asked to bring his own equipment, the cost will be high.
And this opportunity to make money only lasts once.
Even if Pei Renli did nothing else and devoted himself to making potions for sale, he wouldn't be able to do much. After all, there was only one person, and the materials could not be used directly, but had to be specially prepared.
Besides, the authentic magic shop should also get the news and arrive soon. Even if Pei Renli is cheaper, most adventurers will still choose the more guaranteed magic shop, not to mention their supply of goods is enough to completely overwhelm them.
But this is enough. Counting the money that has not yet arrived, it is roughly enough for Pei Renli to consume for a period of time, so that he does not have to worry about money for the time being.
So Pei Renli sold the stall to another vendor for 50 copper coins and returned to the city happily.
"How do you attract guests? Teach me."
"It's simple. The main thing is to observe people's behavior and see who is interested and who is just watching the excitement. After experiencing it a few times, you will get better. I will teach you when I have another chance."
In a good mood, Pei Renli boasted casually to Sistia.
It would be noon in a while, and Pei Renli decided to eat out. He really couldn't afford a big meal, so a home-cooked restaurant would be fine.
But when they walked onto the arch bridge across the river, a person walked towards them. Before they saw his face, they saw two erect rabbit ears rising and falling with their footsteps.
"Korra!"
Cistia greeted him in surprise.
Pei Renli felt very puzzled. When he asked the teacher for permission to go out in the morning, he didn't hear that Korra would come out too.
While he was pondering this, Cistia and Korra had already completed the process of greeting and greetings while jumping and chattering.
——Girls are really incredible.
"What are you doing here?"
I looked behind Korra and saw no one else. It didn't look like she was planning to enter the ruins again.
After all, the last time the six of them went together, they were chased until their butts were wet. If they went alone, they would probably not be able to get out.
"The teacher asked me to come find you and go back quickly."
Korra waved to Pei Renli to come closer to prevent others from hearing.
"Someone from the school is asking all students to be investigated, except you two."
"Top?"
Naspar's Adventurer School was jointly funded and established by many countries. Unlike other adventurer schools, it always maintains a neutral status and does not accept the management of any country or organization. There is no superior.
"It is the sword of salvation."
"The Sword of Salvation?"
Cistia murmured:
"How come it seems like I've heard it somewhere?"
Alyndra behind her lowered her head slightly and said:
"Miss, before you came to school, the master once mentioned that they are experts in dealing with demon kings and related matters. They should be here for the ruins."
"Did my father mention it? I don't really remember."
This eldest lady never pays attention to things she is not interested in. She seems to have amnesia most of the time...
When they were talking, Korra turned sideways, leaned against Pei Renli and pointed out:
"You have to be careful, don't let them catch you by the tail."
Pei Renli was stunned by these words.
What does it mean?
etc!
Damn it! Could it be said that it was exposed?
–‐‐——–‐‐——
He is the successor of the tyrannical Demon King, the new Demon King. This is Pei Renli's biggest secret, and it is also a secret that must not be exposed. Even if his identity as a time traveler is exposed, it doesn't matter. There are many strange things in the multiverse world.
went.
But if the devil's affairs are exposed, Pei Renli will immediately be hunted by various countries and organizations, and the days of stable growth like now will be gone forever.
Logically speaking, this matter should not be exposed.
Of course Perenli himself would not tell anyone, and Ravna, who was most likely to reveal his relationship with the violent demon king, always hid in the shadows and never appeared in front of anyone except Perenli.
How did Korra know?
Or am I scaring myself?
So Pei Renli asked with a confused expression like asking "Who farted?", but Korra didn't answer at all, and gave her a look like you just pretend to be confused...
Sure enough, it was still exposed!
If it wasn't Perrenli's self-exposure or because of Ravna, maybe it was because of the White Day incident?
Because when dealing with Rufus, Perrenli once used the Spear of Blessing, and that Spear of Blessing is the legacy of the tyrannical Demon King. It is very likely that, like Ravna herself, it has a certain power of the tyrannical Demon King.
Aura, and then Korra discovered it and followed the clue...
It doesn't seem quite right either.
Korra probably wasn't in school at the time. She didn't see it with her own eyes, otherwise Kaya, who shared the same difficulties with Perrenli, would have discovered it long ago.
Perhaps, Korra was hiding in the school and peeping?
It is possible, but to say the least, even if she was peeping nearby at the time, it is unlikely that she would have discovered it.
To be able to tell that it is related to the Demon King of Violence, he must have seen it before. Of course, there is no way to confirm without comparison. Given Korra's age, she was probably still in a liquid state when the Demon King of Violence existed twenty years ago.
What's more, even if she knew that Korra was not a spellcaster, let alone a race with a keen sense of energy, but just a human (orcs are a subspecies of humans), she shouldn't be able to tell the difference.
After all, the teachers had carefully surveyed the scene at that time. Many teachers had experienced the period of the violent demon king. They had even been face-to-face with the violent demon king's subordinates or himself, but they had not discovered it. It was too nonsense for Korra to discover it.
.
And if it wasn’t on Holy White Day, maybe it was recently?
Pei Renli suddenly remembered that when they ran into the ruins a few days ago, it was indeed written on the stone tablet of the God-killing Demon King Balam that 'Only the Demon King can enter the room where the ruins are stored'.
Assuming that Korra learned this information from unknown channels, when she saw Perenli in that room, she was naturally exposed.
As for why he didn’t suspect Sistiya, who was with him at the time?
It's very simple. This girl is so careless and has no foresight at all. With Korra's shrewdness, she has had the opportunity to easily find out in the past few days that Sistia was in a coma at the time and didn't know anything about it.
Thinking about the details again, since only the devil can enter that place, why did Pei Renli, who took the inheritance, meet with others there?
Korra, this little bitch must have done something!
Even the adventure of going to the ruins itself might be a trap for Pei Renli!
At that time, there were a lot of ghosts behind him. When he came back, he had to count the loot, and later he had to deal with the demon king's legacy that was parasitic on his arm. Pei Renli didn't notice these details at all.
It was definitely very dangerous for his identity to be exposed, but Pei Renli was silently shocked and broke into a cold sweat, feeling that there was no room for recovery.
Regardless of where Korra got the key information, since she already knew that Perrenli was the new Demon King, why didn't she tell it widely and instead came over to remind him?
She is not sure yet. Is there no real evidence? Or is there another purpose?
With this matter all in his mind, Pei Renli didn't dare to reveal any flaws on the surface. His good mood just now was gone, so he returned to school with so much confusion.
Not long after I entered the door, I saw two guys wearing silver armor and holding spears and axes, whom I had never seen before, approaching with dark faces.
"Are they the students who are out? If you come with us, you must accept questioning."
It's called questioning, but it's basically an interrogation. The attitude is arrogant and annoying.
Perrenli didn't care about the attitude issue. He calmed down. Whether Korra really discovered his secret needed to be postponed for the time being. What he really had to consider now was how to deal with the Sword of Salvation's inquiry.
The so-called Sword of Salvation is an organization with a very transcendent status.
It was originally formed spontaneously by a group of people who wanted to fight against the devil. Since the devil was always the first to fall, the next one would jump out faster than a leek. This organization also gradually grew stronger, and now it has become a
A violent agency similar to a spy organization.
They have law enforcement powers in many countries and are responsible for dealing with the Demon King and hunting down and executing anyone related to the Demon King. Adhering to the principle that they would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go, their ruthless methods are even worse than the Demon King.
I heard that they once massacred an entire town just to hunt down a person who had collaborated with the Demon King. They were executioners holding the banner of justice.
Almost all the Good God Temples have stated that if they do not change their behavior, they will immediately terminate cooperation, but they still go their own way and do not take any threats to heart.
And they have still not been banned because of their outstanding military exploits.
Since records began, as many as seventeen demon kings have died at their hands, and there are countless people involved. If the violent demon king was not too difficult to deal with, there would be no chance of recruiting adventurers, and it would be impossible to start an adventure.
The golden age of
It is estimated that they came here because of the attack on Holy White Day and the discovery of the ruins. After all, these two things are related to the Demon King, and they are closely related.
Unfortunately, these two incidents are also related to Pei Renli. Maybe in their view, asking other people in the school is just checking for gaps, and Pei Renli is the top priority.
By the way, most of the demon kings killed by the Sword of Salvation are still in the growth stage, such as Pei Renli...
