679 Chapter 441: The Beginning of the S-rank Mission [1/3]
Richard did not care about the servants’ gazes around him. He fixed his eyes on the figure before him. He said slowly, “The purpose of my visit this time is to complete the task Lord Peim and Chairman Windsor have entrusted me.”
He looked at Emily and Christy while they entered the room hand in hand.
“Twilight City is ready.”
The god’s ancient tree that guarded the sunset city came with all its might. It took root outside Solan City.
Richard would immediately obtain a Contract Scroll and Transcendent Trump Card. That is, once he completed the S-rank mission.
The vampire grand duke in the blood coffin tempted him at all times.
The turmoil was coming. A transcendent could give Twilight City a lot of confidence.
He needed this trump card.
Follow-up of this mission could also bring additional benefits… Whether it was Windsor or the heartless old white-haired man who had survived for ten years after losing his heart and controlled a high-level divine weapon, they were all top-notch figures.
The benefits of getting closer to them were not something one could explain in a few words.
This was most obvious in the fire elemental lord that he had invested.
Windsor’s gaze softened when he heard Richard’s affirmative answer.
Although it was still uncertain whether the other party could complete the mission and retrieve the sealed god’s heart.
However, the promise she got from him somehow made her trust him.
It was because the opponent was Qingqiu, the mightiest expert among the grace mainland overlords.
His past achievements proved his skills and strength.
He had already reached level 15 and had stepped into the starting point of a powerhouse.
Windsor could sense that Richard’s body contained energy as hot as the sun.
That could instantly destroy everything in an instant once it erupted.
Richard was still sparingly level 10 when Windsor first met him a few months ago.
That was all, although he was extraordinary.
Richard’s potential amazed her.
It may not be long before the other party can advance to another level at this thrive rate.
Strength was the only pass in this world. And no one could underestimate Richard’s sharpness.
Windsor took a deep breath.
“Then I’ll leave everything to you, Lord Richard.”
Her gaze was solemn.
“If you need help, the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce will do its best.”
Richard looked at the woman’s solemn eyes, and his heart skipped a beat.
“This time, going to the ruins… He couldn’t know how to destroy the ancient ruins.”
“I hope Chairman Windsor can take care of Twilight City.”
There was a hidden meaning in his words.
“Twilight City has several enemies.”
He was able to extract the soul of the kobold god, but this has not diminished his enemies.
The god’s ancient tree has devoured the rotten authority. There would be a place for him on the killing list of the abyssal ruler.
Chairman Windsor has yet to discover Twilight City, but it was inevitable in the future.
The Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce’s chairman nodded without hesitation.
“No problem.”
“As long as the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce exists, no one can destroy your territory.”
Richard seemed worried her words were not powerful enough, so she added.
“I’ll go personally.”
This is her, to guard a small town in the depths of the desert. Problems couldn’t threaten her.
That relieved Richard. The safety of Twilight City would be off the charts with the boss’s promise.
Richard returned to his senses, and he spun thoughts.
Windsor’s attitude from the beginning to the end indicated one thing… The old white-haired man in the Red Dragon General Store was extremely important.
Not only for her but also for the Crimson Moon.
The old white-haired man’s status might be more extraordinary than he had imagined.
His gaze was solemn.
“Chairman Windsor, no matter what dangers there are in the ancient ruins, Twilight City will not let us retreat… Even if I have to face the gods.
“Even if I have to do everything, I will get that heart back. This is my promise to you.”
High risk came with high returns.
The war of iron and blood had forged the current Twilight City.
Nothing could stop his will, no matter how difficult the S-rank mission was.
The resolute tone revealed a heroic temperament at this moment. Vale, who was at the side, was vibrant. A body of water seemed to drown his eyes.
Richard was like the scorching sun, full of indescribable charm. He could even hear his heartbeat.
‘Lord Richard…’
Windsor looked at the handsome and prim figure before her. She felt sparingly thirsty.
This guy, why did he have a magical power that could make people unable to take their eyes off him…
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
The two young girls still chatted and laughed when they entered the hall. But they also noticed the atmosphere suddenly changed.
Christy turned around and asked curiously.
“Sister Windsor, what are you guys talking about?”
Windsor hugged the young girl beside her and introduced her.
“Let me introduce you to Sir Richard’s… Her daughter, Emily.”
She felt sparingly regretful afterward.
“Goddaughter.”
Christy blinked her eyes and said proudly.
“Now, Emily is already calling me Big Sister!”
Windsor suppressed the subtle emotions in her heart and moved away from the young girls before her. She stared at Christy with amusement.
‘This silly young girl.’
She looked at Emily and frowned at the young centaur.
“Lord Richard, I can sense Miss Emily’s soul misses a piece.”
Richard’s eyes narrowed.
“Soul… Misses a piece?”
He instantly recalled Emily’s lost memories.
