"Why do you look at me like this? I really just said it casually at the time, but I didn't expect her to agree. Just because of this, I concluded that she is a good boss!"
Although he knew that Kira had this kind of personality, Urrutia felt that it was necessary to remind him: "I sent you away with a little money? You 'sage' is really cheap!"
"What kind of money? Converted into the currency of the Kingdom of Fiore, it would be 50 J a month! Otherwise, how would I dare to eat in such a place?"
Nani? !so much? !
Urrutia was shocked, staring blankly at Kira, speechless for a long time.
Seeing that the other party was persuaded by him, Kira didn't care, but just buried his head in silently. After a long time, he found that Urrutia was still staring at him blankly, and couldn't help asking: "Aren't you going to eat?"
"……no appetite!"
I am full of gas, where is my appetite?
Kira was silent for two seconds, then stretched out the fast child to the opponent's bowl: "If you don't have an appetite, I will eat this chicken leg..."
Urutia didn't care about his shameless predation behavior, but said lightly: "Then what are you going to do next? Don't you defeat her and take her away? Or are you sure you can persuade her not to participate in the war?"
"The opponent is also the strongest female mage among human beings, don't say it as if you can beat her casually... Even if you want to fight, you can't be here, it will hurt innocent people!"
"Besides, the war hasn't started yet... Just wait for a while. This kind of stable, leisurely and high-paying job is rare. If you leave this village, there will be no such shop."
Hearing that Kira seemed to be planning to lie flat here, Urrutia suddenly became restless: "How long will I have to wait? I don't have much money left!"
Does this tone mean that you want me to support you?Shaking and cold!When will I be able to stand up?
"What's going on? Didn't you manage money when you were in 'The Witch'? Could it be that the royal family of Fiore deducted your labor wages?"
Urutia glanced at Kira speechlessly: "Please! Who would take the money from the headquarters with them on a business trip?"
"When I received your news, I didn't expect to come to the Western Continent and do such a long lurking operation, so I only had three months' living expenses with me. But the purchasing power of the Western Continent and Ishka There is a difference, and now I have already spent almost all of it!"
Kira rolled her eyes and complained: "What do you say that there is a difference in the purchasing power of currency... Isn't it just spending money lavishly without knowing it!"
Urrutia was a little embarrassed, but still huffed arrogantly: "I bought a few sets of clothes that fit the atmosphere of life here because I want to carry out espionage operations better!"
Hearing this, Kira's clear sky blue eyes couldn't help but poke down, and landed on the new clothes Urrutia was wearing at this time.
The bold design, bright colors, and thin materials perfectly present Urrutia's sexy figure, and the temperament is also in line with what Kira has observed in the past few days, the clothing characteristics of women in the Western Continent.
"Women's outfits in the Western Continent are really unique..."
"Where are you looking at?!"
"Look at the fabric! I think the material of the clothes you are wearing is very good. It should be very popular for making magic clothes..."
Urrutia obviously didn't understand the thinking of a businessman, so he sneered at Kira's explanation.
In fact, a mature businessman like Kira only cares about doing business and making money, and nothing else at all.It can be said that they are one of the purest people in the world.
At least that's how Kira felt about herself!
"By the way, what about Selene?"
"Who knows... I didn't act with her."
The three originally acted together, but now one is living happily, the other is facing food and housing crisis, and the whereabouts of the other is unknown. Kira suddenly feels that they are so pitiful.
"Can't you find a job temporarily?"
"Please, the mages here are all soldiers of the empire, there is no magic guild, where are the job opportunities?"
Kira was shocked immediately: "My God... can you be more mature?! You are 21 years old this year, not 12 years old! And you have experienced so much in the past, why are you still so rigid?!"
"Mages don't have to be in the guild to work!"
"Just relying on your arc of time magic, find a demolition team, a mountain blasting team, etc. Isn't it millions of minutes?"
Urrutia cast a contemptuous glance at Kira, who was standing and talking without back pain, and explained: "This is the Western Continent, not the Kingdom of Fiore! How can there be so many projects? Besides, once the magic of the arc of time is spread, it is easy I was noticed by the other party, so how can I carry out the spy plan?"
"Well... what you said is also reasonable...but there should be some jobs that are not so noticeable? For example, I was a magician before..."
"I'm out of stock! I don't have your kind of shame..."
This is a bit too much!What is 'my face'?I'm just giving you an idea for your work!
Kira was indignant, crossed her hands and said, "Don't you have commercial products? Just the skin care products you use! I remember you have been doing it for a long time, right? The women here are so bold and revealing, they just need skin care products help!"
"do not want!"
Urrutia refused, and then avoided Kira's surprised gaze with some embarrassment, "I still need to keep those for myself! These few clothes are too revealing, and they are consumed faster these days." ..."
Kira: "...you forget it if you starve to death!"
Is this the legendary 'For women, beauty is more important than food'?
This woman has no business sense at all, and she doesn't know who will be so unlucky to marry her in the future. It is estimated that all savings will be wiped out by then...
But she probably won't get married!
Of course, Urrutia didn't want to starve to death. There is no starved mage in this world, so she continued to express to Kira: "You brought us here, don't you want to reimburse us for the expenses?"
"Reimbursement of expenses is only done after returning from a business trip, and an invoice is required!"
"Invoice? I have it!"
"Eh?"
Under Kira's shocked gaze, Urrutia took out a few invoices from a very private place, the invoices she left for buying clothes and staying in hotels in the past two days, and then said with a smile: "Look, I have all of them." Keep it!"
This guy is already ready to pluck the wool from me, right?
By the way, those money-greedy eyes, that dark smile...why do they feel so familiar?Who did she learn from?
Kira took over the invoice that was still a little bit warm and exuded a faint milk fragrance, looked at the amount on it, and couldn't help but twitch his eyes: "Go to your former boss! He is the one responsible for this task." sponsor!"
After speaking, he kindly helped her put the ticket back to its original position.
"But this is for your guild, right?"
"Hurry up and get the money!"
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
Kira didn't know why Urrutia's character was so different from the original.
Could it be that he had too much influence on her?
He vaguely remembered that the first time the two met was in Alcatraz, when he punched her in the face, could it be that the punch was too hard and made the good girl stupid?
It seems that after going back this time, she has to go for a comprehensive inspection!
Otherwise, if one day he becomes an idiot and falsely accuses himself, the savings he has managed to save over the past few years will be in danger.
In the afternoon, the two of them, who had eaten and drank enough, walked side by side on the street to digest food.
Kira finally gave the money, he couldn't really watch Urrutia starve to death in a foreign country.
Using space magic, the palm-sized animal skin wallet was connected to the seventh small vault in the basement of the hope hut, and the money in it was enough for her.
After receiving the money, Urrutia happily ate two large bowls.
So Kira knew that what girls say about "no appetite" and "can't eat" is a lie in many cases!That's just one of the means by which they achieve their ultimate goal.
In fact, their stomachs are as organized as computer disks using volume management. Those unfilled spaces in the stomach bags are the same as the career lines in front of them. As long as they are willing to squeeze, there will always be some.
"Oh, isn't this Mr. Kira? I haven't seen you setting up a stall these days, so I thought you had left."
Walking towards him was a fat, middle-aged lady. She was a regular customer of Kira who often took care of his business when he was selling magic props here a few days ago.
Of course, this middle-aged lady didn't want old cows to eat young grass. Although the women in the Western Continent are enthusiastic and open, they are not to the extent of ignoring the age difference. She mainly wants to introduce her daughter to Kira.
"No, no, I have something to do these two days. I am busy with moving in. The paving needs to be stopped for a while."
The middle-aged wife looked happy: "Could it be that Mr. Kira plans to live in this town?"
"Yes, I really like the environment here."
"That's really great! By the way, about what I said last time, about letting you and my daughter try to date, I wonder how Mr. Kira thinks about it?"
"This... let's talk about it when we have a chance..."
When the middle-aged wife left, her face was somewhat disappointed, and the complicated eyes that fell on Urrutia seemed to be amazed and unwilling.
"Why do you feel that she looks at me strangely? I probably haven't seen her before..."
"How do I know? Did you drink coffee in her coffee shop and didn't pay for it?"
"How is it possible?! I don't like coffee."
Urrutia and Kira discussed for a long time but couldn't figure out the reason, so they had to let it go.
……
Alvarez Empire, capital, Vistarion.
In a certain courtyard of the guest house, Makarov and Yakir, two old men with thinning hair, were playing cards.
The two continents, Arakitasia and Ishgar, have similar latitudes, but the kingdom of Fiore is offshore, while Vistarion is inland, and the climates of the two are different.
It was just winter, and the flowers and plants in the courtyard began to wither in accordance with the season, and there were two elderly men sitting here, adding an inexplicable desolation to the air.
Perhaps the after-morning sun overhead is the only thing that warms the heart.
As Makarov said, he visited in a fair manner, and the other party sent a sufficient number of people to receive him, and maintained a very friendly diplomacy on the surface.
Neither side chose to use the unwise act of "diplomacy of force", which has no benefit, and replaced it with silent intellectual wrestling.
The president of "Fairy Tail" and the minister of the Alvarez Empire, relying on their decades of life experience, they concentrated on one duel after another.
The way to fight intellectually is to play cards.
Letjanka, a tabletop strategy card game popular in the Alvarez Empire.
Compared with the "Magic Kill" that Kira set off in the Kingdom of Fiore, which was generated according to his personal magic talent, Lai Jianka's card is undoubtedly more appropriate to the culture of this world, and it is more in line with the two old men's desires. identity and status.
King, queen, knight, wizard, goddess, demon, doctor, killer...
In this game, each profession has its own role. Only by matching and using the characters of each profession reasonably can the player win the final battle.
