章 31: A Battle Worth 10,000 Federation Coins
編集者: EndlessFantasy Translation
Seeing Mike's delighted expression, the king was slightly stunned. After a moment of silence, he asked, "My daughter is missing. Why are you so happy?"
Mike coughed and said, "Nothing. I thought of something happy. Please continue."
The king looked at Mike with a suspicious gaze, but he still continued,
"Since half a month ago, I've sent many of my confidants to look for the princess, but all to no avail.
"The disappearance of the princess can't be known by others. This will cause a lot of bad effects, that's why I can't conduct a large-scale search..."
Hearing this, Mike nodded in understanding.
If the citizens of the city knew that the princess was missing, they would definitely panic.
If even the high and mighty princess could disappear, then it would not be strange for anyone in the entire City of Light to disappear.
The security of the City of Light would immediately be suspected. At the same time, the citizens would also doubt the ability of their ruler, the king.
The king continued, "So, I can only ask for the help of you adventurers. I hope that Lord God Slayer will accept this mission."
[Do you accept the mission, The Missing Princess?]
A purple dialog box!
Mike's eyes lit up and he immediately agreed. He then asked, "May I ask, after searching for half a month, did you find any clues?"
A normal mission, as long as there was a clue, the mission could be completed if one followed the clue.
A purple mission, the reward must be very generous!
This caused Mike to be very happy, but the king shook his head helplessly.
"No clue."
"What?" Mike was stunned.
'After half a month of search, there's still no clue?
'Isn't your efficiency too low?'
Although he was shocked, Mike could only leave the palace. Since the king said that there was no clue, there was no point in staying.
At this moment, the number of players in the City of Light had gradually increased.
There were players everywhere, and they were either busy or shouting.
"Is there a party that needs a priest? A level 11 priest is requesting to form a party."
"Selling green bracers. I just got a level 10 green bracer. The price is cheap."
"Is anyone going to fight monsters in the Elwyn Forest? Join us!"
It was already a tacit agreement that the area outside the palace was the players' square. Even the teachers in school had said that if they wanted to trade with other players, they should just go to the entrance of the palace.
Mike paid no attention to these people. All he could think about was the mission.
However, just because he paid no attention to them, it did not mean that others were not paying attention to him.
As soon as Mike appeared, people immediately started to discuss.
"Why did this person just come out from the palace?"
"I don't know. I thought the palace didn't allow anyone to enter freely?"
"Wow, he's already level 15! Wait, isn't he the God Slayer who was the first to kill a wild boss and clear the Spider Cave by himself?"
"I heard that in the novice village, a player provoked him and the NPC in the village even helped him kill that player."
"Oh my god, he's that scary?"
Many people began to talk about Mike's actions, and they understood that this person was not someone that ordinary players like them could provoke.
Once they saw Mike coming, everyone automatically made way for him, afraid to cause trouble.
However, a swordsman player took the initiative to walk over and stopped Mike.
"God Slayer is it? I've heard so much about you."
The swordsman stood in front of Mike with a provocative smile, but Mike did not notice him at all. He walked past him with his head lowered.
With that, the swordsman felt a little embarrassed. His face showed a hint of redness as if he felt humiliated.
'So many people are watching, it's too embarrassing!
'This God Slayer actually dared to ignore me!'
"Stop! God Slayer!!!"
The swordsman turned around and shouted.
Only then did Mike heard someone call him. He turned around with a puzzled face and asked, "Looking for me? What's the matter?"
Having heard Mike's reply, the player called Sky Splitting Sword regained his previous expression and said provocatively,
"I'm here to challenge you!"
Sky Splitting Sword had a smug look on his face.
There were at least dozens of people around him. Facing such a provocation, God Slayer would definitely not refuse him. This way, as long as he defeated him, he would be famous!
However, something unexpected happened.
"Sorry, I'm very busy. I don't have time." Mike replied.
Then, he turned around and left.
Suddenly, Sky Splitting Sword felt even more embarrassed.
He did not expect God Slayer to publicly refuse his challenge!
No expert would do such a thing because it was too embarrassing.
Sky Splitting Sword did not give up, he asked, "Are you afraid?"
Mike answered disapprovingly, "Yes, I'm afraid."
He did not even turn his head.
Sky Splitting Sword's anger grew. The people around him naturally did not think that God Slayer was afraid. They only thought that God Slayer was looking down on him!
"I'll bet 10,000 federation coins with you!" Sky Splitting Sword shouted with all his might.
Having heard this, Mike finally stopped and turned his head.
His face revealed an interested smile,
"You want to give me money? I agree."
