Chapter 18 Quest

That tiefling!

When Ron noticed the pair of small bags on the "stranger's" head, he immediately thought about it.

The red skin and the slender tail with a tip behind it are hard to forget.

"How did you get in?!"

Ivy obviously recognized the other party, and her brows immediately furrowed: "Has the prosecutor begun to believe that tieflings are good citizens with eloquence?"

"Hehe, you can't say that," Tieflin rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "I really have something urgent to see the mayor. After explaining the situation, I was naturally let go."

"Then why are you wandering on the street if you don't go to the mayor?"

The tiefling grinned: "Of course the search is over, but I found that something interesting seems to be happening here, so I wanted to find a companion - you wouldn't mind having an extra helper, right?"

"After all, it is a delusional land, a land that has never been truly conquered!"

"You want to join the pioneering team?" Ivy was very disgusted with this, "Can't you just go to the banquet yourself?"

"Beautiful lady, you are wrong," tieflin shook his head, "you don't know, the water at this party is very deep."

"There are some people among the refugees outside the city. They have reached a temporary agreement with some people in the city - I can't say who they are - and are preparing to do some terrible things at the banquet or after that. The purpose Let the pioneering team have the final say.”

"To eat the entire Delusion Land?" Ron frowned, "Isn't your appetite too big, and are you afraid of being stuffed to death?"

"Of course not," Tieflin smiled, his eyes falling on Drayford, "Didn't your partner also eat a lot yesterday?"

"Are you spying on us?!" Ivy's hand was already on the hilt of the sword, but this tiefling didn't seem to be a kind person. His hand came last, and Ivy felt as if her right hand was stuck in a quagmire. Generally, the sword cannot be drawn out no matter what.

"Hush, hush," the tiefling smiled evilly, "drawing a sword in the street will attract the guards. It would not be good for anyone to make things worse, right?"

"Why do you have to choose us?" Ron asked, "I'm afraid there are quite a few people here who are ready to conquer the Fantasy Land, right?"

"It's simple, because you can accommodate him," the tiefling pointed at Drayford with his paw, "he is not as simple as he seems, right?"

"I think you should also be able to accept me."

"A tiefling?" Ivy sighed and turned to look at Ron, "Forget it, you make the decision."

"Then what can you bring us?"

Ron asked the second question: "There is a reason why the three of us got together. Without any one of us, we would not be able to live or reach the city. Please forgive my wording, but what do you have?" What’s the use?”

"Me?" The tiefling reached out and took out a palm-sized notebook from his crossbody bag and handed it to Ron, "This is a meeting gift, take a look."

""Someone's...Magic Learning Guide"?"

Ron opened the book, which recorded some tricks and learning techniques. Some of them he had heard of in his previous life, such as dancing lights and acid splash; while others he had never heard of and didn't even have official names, such as the tricks needed for alchemy.

"You need this, don't you? You wanted to learn spells yesterday."

"You... not only follow us, you can even read our minds?!" Ron was dumbfounded, this world is too dangerous!

In their previous life, cameras were common in the streets and alleys, and some people said it was an invasion of privacy. They should be thrown into this world to experience it!

This is a bit too much!

"It's not too much. I don't want to do anything bad to you."

The tiefling looked at Ron innocently: "Isn't this what you want?"

"Yes, but this is too..." Ron sighed, "Thank you, but I really don't like your way - how about you go back and wait for notification?"

"No, tomorrow is the official day!" Tieflin said quickly, "So, are you still short of money? Especially now that you still need to practice spells, that is a big expense - I can help you!"

As he said that, the tiefling took out a handful of gold coins, about twenty, from his pocket: "How's it going? Deal?"

Ron really wanted to refuse him firmly, but...

A member who is proficient in tracking and can read minds would be really useful, wouldn't it? Not to mention bringing money into the group.

"Then we might as well open the skylight and tell the truth. What do you want?" Ron accepted the book and coins and continued to ask questions.

"You seem to have no shortage of money and are very capable. Why do you do this?"

"Well..." Tiefling seemed to find it difficult to say, "I can tell you that I do have something to ask for, and you are the ones I am betting on."

"But I can't say or show the specific reasons now. You just need to know that I hope to have a sufficiently enlightened person as the lord of the delusion. That's enough."

"To be honest, I've had enough of running errands for lords in various city-states and towns without seeing the light of day. I want a place where I can live a less tiring life."

"Is this reason enough?"

"We half-elves want it too, but it's a pity that it hasn't been realized yet," Ivy curled her lips, "As for the tieflings, you should just go to bed, you can dream about anything."

"Okay, I agree, then we are teammates," Ron thought about it and finally agreed with the other party's words, "but I have to make it clear in advance: I can't make you any promises, our own survival is in question now. Even so, do you want to mix with us?"

"Investment is bound to have risks, I have long expected this," the tiefling nodded, "I just hope you can fulfill your promise at the right time."

"Let me introduce myself: my name is Quest, and I used to be a spy and messenger for a lord. Now the contract has been completed, and I am a free man."

"However, I'm sorry that I can't reveal the employer and the content of the letter due to professional ethics, but if you want to get more "other" information, we might as well find a place to talk in detail."

Due to Quest's sudden appearance and joining, the morning shopping plan had to be hastily ended. Ron immediately bought a batch of spellcasting materials and prepared to start practicing. Ivy and the others were pulled over by Quest, who said he wanted to show them some intelligence and evidence.

Since Lavinia from the Kitten Alchemy Shop was an acquaintance, he got a considerable discount, and the materials he bought were enough for him to practice three tricks.

"Are you ready to step into the world of magic?" Lavinia chatted with Ron while packing the materials, "I'm sure this is the best decision you've ever made. You will definitely become a real alchemist in the future!"

"Don't forget me when the time comes!"
