I, Kiriko, the Cheater

"Even...Since Master Lian also said the same...then there is no other way, let's give you an additional minimum remuneration."

Kirito raised an eyebrow.

"Minimum? King, I think you are getting old and have forgotten something?"

The king suddenly had a bad feeling.

"what?"

"If I remember correctly, you still owe me nine duels? Why don't we practice now?"

When the king was beaten last time, the people in the audience hall were basically the same as they are now, except that Kitamura Yuanyasu was not there.

Speaking of which, before Tongzi accidentally heard a piece of news:

It is said that a large-scale food poisoning incident suddenly occurred in the palace, and many guards were poisoned to death. I don't know if it is true or not.

However, the guards maintaining order in the audience hall are indeed unfamiliar faces.

Immediately the king stood up from his throne.

"You... Wu Zhiyong, don't bully others too much, I am the king of this country!"

Tongzi yawned.

"Oh, and then what?"

The king glared at Tongzi fiercely.

"Wrath of the king, ten thousand dead bodies, bleeding for hundreds of miles."

Tongzi elegantly picked out her ears.

"Oh, what else?"

The king raised his hand high like an angry lion king, and...

He slapped the minister beside him hard on the face.

The minister was slapped with a dazed expression.

"You bastard! How do I usually teach you? Merromag is a country that emphasizes justice, fairness, and openness. These four brave men are the saviors who save the world and save all people from the fire and water! How can this be so? Lax!"

The king spoke righteously, and righteousness could be gushed out of his asshole.

"I clearly ordered that the remuneration of the brave men must be treated equally. Why are the remunerations of the shield brave and the no brave brave so low? Did you get kickbacks!"

The minister looked confused. The matter of the remuneration was decided by the king and the bitch princess in private, and they never asked him at all.

Why is this pot on his forehead now?

However, those who can get into the position of minister, not to mention their ability, at least have a quick enough brain, not the kind of elm head that the leader can't understand even though he is trying his best to wink.

"I'm guilty, I deserve death!"

As expected of a minister, from being at a loss to taking the initiative to take the blame in one go, he is a hero among ministers.

So under the king's solemn request, the sweaty servant went to make up the amount again.

Like Tianmu Lian, it is also 3800 silver coins.

Iwatani Naofumi took the money bag, but Kiriko didn't reach out to take it.

"No, since everyone is treated equally, everyone should get 4000 silver coins, which is 200 less."

Iwatani Naofumi and Amaki Ren had no objections, but Kawasumiki had something to say.

"Miss Tong, you are going too far. The so-called remuneration is calculated according to the completed commission. If you don't complete the commission and accept so much remuneration, won't you feel uneasy about your conscience?"

Kiri put her hands on her chest and made that drake-like voice of LEX.

"That's right... Umm, my heart does hurt a bit, because I'm still short of 200 silver coins."

Chuansumi was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.

"you……"

The king dared not speak out.

But this person, as long as he is coaxed once, he will not feel so uncomfortable if he is coaxed the second time, and there will be a third or fourth time after that.

Chapter 44

==============================

In the end, the king made up the same amount as Kawasumi for Kiriko, Iwatani Naofumi, and Amaki Ren.

"It's all right now."

Tongzi confirmed the amount, and put the money bag into the dimension bag.

Then he held out his hand to the king again.

The veins on the king's forehead twitched violently. He wanted to get angry but couldn't, so he could only swallow his anger.

"Hero of Nowhere, what's the matter with you?"

Tongzi had an expression of "do you still need to ask?"

"Gambling money."
