Torture Officer Xiao Jie Just Wants to Fish

"Isabella, you will hand over your work tomorrow and prepare to leave town for a few days."

Isabella stiffened slightly when she heard this.

"Is this going to secretly torture me?"

"That's right, in order to prevent my image from being exposed in front of the residents, torture must not be carried out in the town..."

And Rose, who has accumulated rich experience in getting along with Tina, glanced at Isabella's expression, felt the fluctuation of her soul, and probably knew that the other party must have misunderstood again.

"This knight has been brainstorming about messy things lately, and he's getting more and more powerful..."

Complaining in her heart, Rose quickly interrupted Isabella's brain activities.

"I'm going to go to a few big cities to purchase some building materials. I'm short of a few people to help. You should prepare in advance."

She said so, in order to prevent Isabella from thinking too much, and in order not to disturb this idiot knight's cooking, she left quickly.

"I'll let you know before we leave!"

After saying those words, Rose left the Reman torture room.

Only Isabella was left blankly holding the crispy chicken bibimbap in her hand.

"She... wants to take me to Dacheng on the Western Front to purchase materials?"

No, it's definitely not that simple...

"I see... Is this a demonstration against the captured nobles who surrendered to those cities?"

"If even I have surrendered and fallen, it must be a heavy blow to them..."

"Besides, those nobles in the Sig Republic might even laugh at and humiliate me..."

"By the way, maybe I still want to take this opportunity to let the whole continent know that I have fallen, so that I will never have a chance to prove my innocence."

Isabella took the last bite of the meal, feeling sour in her heart.

"It's really vicious... this succubus."

However, she can't do anything.

Can only quietly wait for the arrival of everything.

She couldn't imagine what it would be like if the news really spread back to the Ruiman Empire.

"I hope... things will turn around."

Isabella thought silently, and picked up a new box of barbecue bibimbap.

While Isabella continued to relieve her stress by overeating, Rose had already left the Torture Tower directly and headed towards the town of Herrambert.

Bringing only one Isabella is definitely not enough.

And it's very dishonest!

Rose decided to go around town to see if there were any other suitable candidates.

By the way, I also went to a tavern for a midnight snack.

Just now Isabella ate so deliciously that Rose herself was hungry.

After entering the town, the town of Helanbert, which had entered the evening, was much more lively than before. Many residents who came back from the south saw Rose and greeted her eagerly.

"Lord Rose, come to town for a stroll!"

"Have you eaten yet, my lord!"

"The meal tonight is delicious, sir, do you want to try it!"

"Master Rose, good evening—you look so beautiful today!"

After more than a week of getting along with each other, the residents have already discovered that this demon lord is not only not as evil and cruel as the nobles said, but also very kind and kind.

Generous, benefiting the people, cooking delicious food, and very approachable!

The identity of the abyssal demons is not important at all!

This is much better than those noble lords.

Rose's kindness towards these people also responded to everyone with a smile and a nod.

Soon, she came to the tavern, opened the door and walked in.

Mai De didn't come today, and there were only Ann and the proprietress in the tavern.

"Hey, lady boss... Ann, good evening."

Rose greeted the two of them.

"Ah, isn't this our lord?" The proprietress who was sitting behind the bar as usual stood up when she saw Rose coming, "Why, are you finally going to have a drink today?"

"No, no, no, I don't drink, I'm here today to taste the crafts of the proprietress," Rose also roughly guessed that the proprietress must have recognized herself a long time ago, and said with a smile, "Come here for something special." Snack!"

"Even if you say whatever you want, I don't dare to fool the lord," the proprietress said with a smile, "after all... the lord's cooking skills are quite good."

"Where it is, it's just a trick."

Rose said modestly, and the proprietress quickly made her a mushroom soup with the characteristics of Sieg Republic, and put it in front of Rose.

"In the past few days, Kanoer has promised you to take care of me...this bowl is my treat."

said the boss.

"Where is it, it's mainly Jessica and Meisha who are watching her." Rose waved her hand and took a sip of the thick soup, "Mmm... the taste is really good!"

She put down the soup bowl, looked at the proprietress, and felt that she seemed to be quite kind, so she asked tentatively.

"I'm planning to go to several big cities to buy some building materials these days, and I'm short of a few attendants and helpers. Does the proprietress know anyone in this town who is more suitable for these jobs?"

Hearing Rose's words, the proprietress showed a thoughtful expression.

"Well... let me think about it..."

Then, she smiled.

"Oh, I really thought of a few quite suitable candidates."

78 Ready to go!

In fact, there are not many candidates recommended by the proprietress, only three.

"Harper Doron...is this the Mayor?"

The first name made Rose hesitate.

After all, judging from the administrative level, apart from Rose, the mayor of the entire town of Helanbert has the highest status.

Harper Doron, who was born from the bottom and became the mayor of the town by relying on his qualifications as an adventurer, is also more pragmatic and considerate of the residents than those noble officials, and is deeply loved by everyone.

"Is it really okay to take him out... There must be someone in Helanbert Town who wants to maintain the daily order?"

Rose always felt that it seemed unreasonable to take the mayor out.

"Ah, no problem. Although that guy is a good guy, the actual things he did as the mayor were actually leading everyone to repair fences and fight monsters." The proprietress waved her hand, "And...he used to be an adventurer."

"Oh, a retired adventurer is the mayor of a remote town," Rose took another sip of the mushroom soup, showing a clear expression, "This person used to be very powerful?"

Although no matter how strong she is, it is unlikely that she will be stronger than herself, but for Rose, it would be great if she could reduce the timing of her shots.

"No, he's just an official grade, mainly because he's been to the cities of Qima Duchy and Lauren Duchy many times, and he knows the way, and," the proprietress showed a playful smile on her face, "this guy There are also some 'connections', so it can also reduce some twists and turns on the road of the lord."

"Okay, then I'll visit the mayor later." Seeing what the proprietress said, Rose nodded again, and looked at the second name, "An...eh?"

She looked at the handsome young man who was drinking in a celadon wine glass. Hearing Rose read her name, the other party also looked at the succubus, puzzled in his brown eyes.

Then, Ann looked at the proprietress.

"Hey... why did you count me in?"

Ann muttered with some dissatisfaction.

Rose wondered why this young man who had been drinking all day long and looked like a homeless teenager was recommended.

The proprietress didn't look like she was looking for a job for an acquaintance either—after all, it wasn't an easy job.

It is still possible to be attacked.

Even if you don't get attacked, if you work for the demons... If you go to those big cities that are no bigger than Helanbert, you will definitely be criticized and accused.

A skinny young man, he was not a local in appearance or appearance, and Rose didn't understand why she had to bring this guy with her.

And the proprietress spoke.

"This guy used to be an epic fighter—well, to be precise, he was a swordsman... I don't quite understand the breakdown of these professions," the proprietress shook off Ann's old background without hesitation. Come out, "Even if it is abolished by someone now, and the skills cannot be used, it is still very strong."

Rose listened to what the proprietress said, and looked at the boy, slightly surprised.

"This guy is actually epic... Wait, before?"

She had long faintly felt that the more peaceful and remote a town like Helanbert Town was, the easier it was to hide a master.

But I have been thinking about the mayor before.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the boy Ann who had dinner with him.

The seemingly young outsider is actually an epic swordsman!

It was also abolished!

This amount of information is a bit large.

When Ann heard what the proprietress said, she didn't argue anymore, but just sighed softly.

"It's a swordsman, not a swordsman... But, I won't work for the demons."

Although Ann looks downcast, she is still proud in her bones.

Even though in the past few days, through Meide's description and what he saw in person, he really realized that this demon was different, and An was still unwilling to follow him.

Rose looked at the other party like this, and felt that it was not easy to force.

Although this kind of person looks like a protagonist, she still wants to get acquainted.

But this continent is like this... The stronger the person, the greater the hostility towards the demons.

Nor is Rose the type to go to great lengths to persuade others to change their positions.
