Zongman: From No Job to Becoming a Collector King

When Alice first arrived in Arcadia, she happened to see that the neighboring country was at war with Arcadia.

The Malqiyuan Mercenary Kingdom, located in the north, is a country composed purely of adventurers and mercenaries, and its economic focus is on sending mercenaries to participate in the war. The Malqiyuan Mercenary Kingdom and its two neighboring countries, the Kingdom of Dikut and the Broz Empire, were bribed by the king of a certain big country at a high price, and they planned to destroy Arcadia, which had been making a lot of noise recently.

In their view, it would not take much effort for the three countries to fight a small country together.

They were looking forward to the bounty promised by the king of the big country, and they declared that they would flatten Elseran and plunder the women in the city.

These remarks completely angered several girls who had originally planned to train soldiers.

So the vanguard general they had high hopes for was beheaded by an ice-blue sickle in the midst of thousands of troops.

The vanguard of more than 10,000 people was slaughtered in less than half a day by the woman who smiled and wielded a long knife.

The three kingdoms were shocked and angry, and desperately mobilized 50,000 troops to surround Elseran.

That day, the people of Arcadia saw their young monarch take action for the first time.

Rhode slowly paced in the air, raised his hand to create 3,000 magic crystals full of lightning magic, surrounded the 50,000 troops, and then waved his right hand expressionlessly.

“Taboo Magic: Divine Palace!”

Boom boom boom – countless golden thunders reached the ground faster than sound, stirring up the myriad phenomena in the sky like divine punishment, forming a sacred and majestic column of thunder light, connecting the sky and the earth.

The torrent of heat roared and swept across the earth, releasing terrifying magic power that was enough to destroy everything, evaporating everything in the wilderness!

Just a blink of an eye, and those living soldiers were left with no residue.

Seeing this scene, young Alice collapsed to the ground with weak legs, but deep in her eyes was a fanatical admiration for that figure.

She knew that she had given up everything in her hometown to come here. The decision was right!

Afterwards, Rhodes met with Alice.

Alice stiffly performed an awkward etiquette, feeling nervous and excited.

Even though she was called a beast, she knew that the person in front of her was someone she could never afford to offend, both in terms of strength and status.

However, when she did this, Rhodes showed a confused expression.

As she lived in the palace for a long time, Alice’s inner filter gradually broke.

Because the man who was revered like a god in the outside world, actually acted like a spoiled child with the maids in the palace every day because he stayed in bed!

He would happily play hide-and-seek with the little maids, and suddenly jump out to scare the little maids. Tears streamed down her face, and then she immediately hugged them with an apologetic look.

He would push all the work to Miss Rita, and then lie in the garden alone to do nothing.

He would quarrel with Miss Elf with a chubby face for a whole day, until both of them fell asleep while sitting, and then Miss Mushroom would helplessly coax them back to their respective beds.

Sometimes she would secretly pay attention to Rhode’s every move, and then she would laugh at his childishness with disdain, but the corners of her mouth could not help but rise, and she felt a little envious in her heart.

Later, Rhode discovered Alice’s peeking, so he flirted with Alice.

At first, Alice was restrained by etiquette and deep fear in her heart. Fear, she kept giving in.

As a result, Rhode kept provoking her.

Finally one day, Alice couldn’t bear it anymore, roared and punched Rhode hard.

Although Rhode caught the punch lightly, Alice was at a loss where she stood.

Fear, confusion, panic.

She recalled the terrifying figure that controlled the thunder again, her body trembled involuntarily, and tears flowed out uncontrollably.

When Rhode slowly reached out his hand to her, Alice closed her eyes in despair, as if she saw the scene of herself turning into ashes.

However, Rhode just touched her head gently and said with relief.

“Yes, this is the Alice I want to see”

“A rabid dog that never gives in should not be kept in a cage”

“I grant you the power to be willful to me. This is a privilege that belongs only to Alice~”

Alice sniffed and sobbed, tears in her eyes, and opened her eyes in disbelief.

Rhode smiled and took out a cute life-size doll from his back and handed it to Alice.

“But I am a king after all, and there are always inconveniences. If Alice can’t help but want to vent her anger at that time, she can beat it up on my behalf.”

Alice hugged the Rhode doll tightly, biting her lower lip, and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.

“Fool……”

From then on, Alice returned to her original nature and started to argue with Rhode boldly.

She even rushed out like a nuclear warhead from time to time to spar with him. Although she never succeeded once, she always refused to admit defeat and said she would come again next time.

But privately, she took the initiative to ask Lilia for guidance, learn the etiquette of the royal palace, and never let Rhode lose face in formal occasions!

The distance between Rhode and Alice has been rapidly shortened since then.

Because Rhode surpassed Alice in all aspects, as if he could do anything.

Therefore, although she was very tough on the surface, Alice proudly believed in her heart that Rhode was invincible and the strongest!

She relied on, admired, and trusted Rhode.

Until that day.

Rhode practiced swordsmanship with his teacher, Unohana Retsu, as usual.

As an unprecedented villain in the history of Soul Society, Unohana Retsu boasted that he mastered all the schools and sword styles in the world.

Her swordsmanship not only incorporates the strengths of hundreds of schools, but also does not stick to the conventional appearance.

Whether it was the [Scimitar Slashing Technique] that deployed her own body, or the [Dark Sword] that attacked with the left hand’s hidden blade, both emphasized the sword philosophy of using all of one’s abilities to kill the enemy.

Rhode liked this sword art very much.

It was not like the Qiba School of the Northern God School that used everything, nor was it like the Sword God School that pursued extremely fast attacks. It required more development of oneself to the extreme.

This was why Rhode felt that she was his most perfect teacher.

Even though Rhode had a six-eye copy, it would take a long time to learn all of Unohana Retsu’s sword arts.

Unohana Retsu noticed the self-limitation caused by Rhode’s respect for her, so she had the idea of ​​letting Rhode break the shackles.

So the battle between the two people went from a competition at the beginning to an extremely fierce killing situation later.

Rhode entered a state of unity between man and nature, and used all the sword arts he had learned, and even suppressed Unohana Retsu at one point.

Unohana Retsu couldn’t help but lose control.

The bad nature of enjoying fighting was completely released because of the joy of seeing the prey.

She truly saw Rhode as an opponent who could kill her, and she couldn’t help but release her Bankai…..

The battle ended with Rhode almost completely killing Unohana Retsu with his full strength.

Rhode returned to the palace exhausted.

Alice was excited to fight with Rhode as usual, but she was stunned when she saw Rhode’s wounds.

“Who is it! Who is the one who attacked you?”

Alice shook Rhode’s shoulders vigorously with excitement.

“It’s okay”

“How can it be okay?”

Rhode wanted to fool her, but Alice, who was stubborn, asked him several times.

Finally, Rhode had no choice but to tell her the whole story.

“That’s nothing!”

Alice picked up the sword angrily and rushed out

“I can’t forgive her for daring to attack you. I’m going to kill that guy!”

He knew how terrible the opponent was who could fight with Rhode to such a situation.

But the red-haired mad dog did it!
