"Miss Jacob, I hope you can tell me your true purpose of pursuing this extraordinary characteristic."
"I must confirm that you have no ill intentions towards him and no longer covet this extraordinary characteristic."
This is also a reasonable request, and Carol has no reason to refuse.
But she was quite shy about this, and she said calmly after a while:
"Our organization will conduct certain investigations on missing members. As for recovering extraordinary characteristics, that is my personal choice in order to complete the mission more perfectly."
"My mother is a high-sequence Beyonder. She had never agreed with me leaving her to go out on my own."
"This time, after my repeated begging, she reluctantly agreed to my request."
"But the premise is that I complete this 'trial mission' without any accidents."
"In order to ensure that my investigation is accurate and credible, I want to recover the extraordinary characteristics."
High sequence!
Listening to Carol's eloquent words, Gray Linte's pupils shrank suddenly, and he was secretly glad that he didn't start a fight just now.
Backlund is really dangerous.
Even if you casually kill an ordinary "scammer", you can still have some relationship with a certain demigod in a roundabout way.
After thinking about it for a while, he thought Carol's explanation was quite reasonable.
In addition, Gray Lint guessed that the opponent was at least Sequence Seven, so he probably wouldn't covet Jim's extraordinary characteristics.
Therefore, he basically believed what the other party said.
"Your honesty is admirable. Please come with me, beautiful lady."
Then, he put away the "witch's dressing mirror" and led the way.
He behaved like a true gentleman.
Gray Lint can be sure that this Miss Carol Jacob is not a noble - at least not a noble from the Kingdom of Loen.
But the other party's etiquette is still impeccable, even more skillful and elegant than him.
Watching his master and this beautiful lady return to his room together, Harsh's mouth began to open silently, almost thinking that he was living in Intis.
As Gray Linte's personal servant, he undoubtedly believed that this young lady and Mr. Mariano met for the first time today.
"Your Excellency the Viscount's personality seems to have changed a lot recently."
"It turns out that he can be calm even when facing Miss Audrey."
…
Unaware of the misunderstanding caused by the valet, Graylingt and Carol entered Graylingt's room one after another, and Carol closed the door smoothly.
For most lawful extraordinary people, it is an instinctive behavior to prevent ordinary people from understanding mysterious matters.
As for those who are not very lawful, in order to hide their identity, they generally will not take the initiative to expose themselves.
Therefore, it is impossible for ordinary people to naturally understand the existence of extraordinary beings when their wealth reaches a certain level, regardless of their identity and status.
They will only know this after an unfortunate encounter.
"Jim, come back."
After placing the delicate small mirror casually, Graylint lowered his voice and went to the window to shout to the next door.
The reason why we don’t go directly to the next room is because the bathroom is next door...
After confirming Gray Lint's identity, Jim was quite happy.
He squeaked and ran back from the balcony.
"Graylint, you didn't..."
"Zhizhizhi..."
Jim suddenly jumped up the window and immediately realized that there were other people in the room, and quickly swallowed what he was about to say.
At the same time, he prayed in his heart that the other party would regard the scene just as an illusion.
He remembered that Gray Lint said that if ordinary people knew that he could talk, they would not feed him purple walnuts for a month!
Seeing Jim's reckless look, Gray Linte felt amusement for no reason.
"It's okay, you can just talk normally."
"This is Carol Jacobs. She is also an extraordinary person, not an ordinary person."
"And she's still on the same sequence as you."
Even though she knew in advance that this was an "extraordinary rat", Carol was still quite surprised that Jim could use Rune normally.
This is something she, the daughter of a demigod, has never seen before.
Disregarding the other party's towering ponytail, this lady is about 170 centimeters tall, slightly shorter than Gray Linte.
Therefore, she raised her head slightly and looked at Gray Lint, revealing her slender and beautiful neck.
Then try to ask:
"Can I touch him?"
She pointed at Jim.
"It depends on Jim's wishes. I have no right to make decisions for him."
Gray Lint wanted to shrug his shoulders, but was instantly restrained by his noble instinct.
"Jim?"
Carol stretched out her slender white palm and called Jim tentatively.
However, Jim, the little yellow-haired mouse, didn't intend to pay attention to her at all, and swooped up to Gray Linte's right shoulder.
"He hasn't communicated with anyone yet."
Gray Linte explained to Carol slightly awkwardly.
This person may be your thigh in the future, little brother, why are you so incapable of causing trouble?
There was nothing to question. The moment she saw Jim speak, Carol had completely believed what Gray Lint had said before.
"It's okay, Mr. Mariano."
"Your honesty makes me ashamed."
"I apologize for the previous doubts."
"I will try my best to introduce you to join the 'Hermit of Destiny', and I will take you there to review your membership."
"In the next two or three days, I hope you will try not to go out."
Slightly embarrassed, she pulled back a few stray blond hairs beside her ears and said pretending not to care.
Then, she looked directly at Gray Lint with clear eyes, solemnly made her promise and gave certain warnings.
"Just call me Gray Lint. Thank you for your kindness, Miss Carol."
In order to show his closeness, Gray Linte slightly changed his name.
After thoroughly investigating the whole matter and confirming that there were no problems, Carole said goodbye on the spot without staying any longer.
Glancing at the already darkening sky, Gray Lint did not try to persuade him to stay and allowed him to leave.
In Loen's etiquette, inviting unfamiliar guests to dinner actually means seeing off the guests.
After watching Carol leave, Gray Linte silently felt that his potion had been digested again, with only the last trace left.
"Oh, this is probably because I didn't use force today and relied entirely on words to convince Carol."
Some of these are purely applications of extraordinary abilities, and some are actually performances.
At the same time, this conflict did not escalate into an armed conflict in the end, which is also the greatest affirmation of his role.
"Next, with at most one or two jury trials, I can fully digest the 'Lawyer' potion and be promoted to 'Barbarian'."
He was looking forward to this.
Taking the magic potion is actually becoming a "non-human" existence step by step. This can be said to be transcending into a god, or it can be said to be degenerating into a monster.
The key to distinguishing the two is only one's own humanity.
Regarding the performance and digestion of potions, Gray Lint has always believed that there are two methods of performance.
Just like Tarot cards, there are two interpretations: "upright" and "reversed".
The core of the "lawyer" potion is to find and exploit loopholes in the rules, but this can be explained in a more primitive wrong direction, or in a relatively correct direction that is closer to his "previous life" values.
There is no doubt that he chose the latter.
"Perhaps it would be much easier to play the role of 'Barbarian'?"
"No matter what problem you face, just use violence to solve it."
Graylingt is quite optimistic about this.
Problems that cannot be solved by law must be put into force!
This is also a type of rule.
