Rhode remained impassive, simply giving a quiet order.
“I don't care what you say, I want to see what you do.”
“The recruitment notice I mentioned before needs to be distributed across all continents, including the Demon Continent.”
The 看板娘's face turned pale, and she wanted to curse in her heart.
Damn it, Demon Continent...
An extremely barren, demon-infested, and incredibly dangerous place where demons congregate!
Not only are there numerous Demon Lords, but it is said that the Demon Emperor, who once ignited the Human-Demon War, will also resurrect in this century.
And there are also the terrifying Sperud, known to make even children cry, roaming the Demon Continent.
Just how crazy does someone have to be to want to recruit demon teachers for the Human King in that kind of hell...
This Majesty not only has guts, but he is also filled with amazing ideas.
Rhode had the 看板娘 stand up and handed her a glass of fruit wine, frowning as he took a sip.
“Any problems?”
The 看板娘 hesitated for a moment before reminding him in a barely audible voice.
“Your Majesty, although the Human and Demon races have signed a peace treaty, many humans still discriminate against demons.”
“The Millis Holy Kingdom, in particular, because of their national religious beliefs, has a holy knight order that kills demons on sight! As long as there is any involvement between humans and demons, they will do everything in their power to treat them as heretics and put them on trial.”
The 看板娘's eyes revealed deep fear and disgust.
“They are all a bunch of crazy fanatics, Your Majesty, it's best not to provoke them now.”
“It's not that I underestimate Your Majesty's power, but those lunatics will fight even if they know they can't win, and they will cling to their perceived enemies.”
Rhode frowned slightly, recalling the geographical location of the Millis Holy Kingdom.
This country is located on another continent adjacent to the Demon Continent.
If that holy knight order really goes mad and wants to target him, they have to either cross the ocean ruled by the Sea Race or traverse the entire Dragon Kingdom, which is basically impossible in the early stages.
Moreover, Rhode wouldn't even bother to abandon his plans because of a threat like this.
Out of the three S-rank cards, only Loki's location is difficult to determine in the early stages.
He cannot guarantee that Loki is not on the Demon Continent, so he must extend his tentacles and create opportunities for contact.
Considering that in the original human-god story, there was a plan to kill Loki, even though the future has changed because of his arrival, the human-god may not let her go.
To prevent the human-god from targeting him by attacking Loki's family, Rhode also needs to determine their location in advance and make preparations.
“I understand, I have my own plans. Any more problems?”
Seeing that Rhode had made up his mind, the 看板娘 quickly shook her head.
“N-no!”
She sighed inwardly, thinking that she would just have to use her connections with slave traders to handle this matter secretly.
She remembered that there was a noble in the Asra Kingdom who seemed to have a special fondness for beast races, often spending a fortune to buy beast race slaves from slave traders. Perhaps she could ask the slave traders who capture beast races to complete this recruitment task along the way...
As long as she was careful, she should be able to avoid drawing the attention of the holy knight order.
Rhode pointed to the few task notices on the bulletin board.
“Secondly, I want to buy a large amount of magic props, magic enhancements, and monster materials, regardless of type, I want them all.”
Pausing for a moment, Rhode emphasized.
“No limit.”
“Ah?!”
The 看板娘 was instantly stunned.
She even doubted for a moment if her ears had gone bad.
No limit?!
Is this how you buy things?
No, Your Majesty, your prodigal spending... how much money do you have?!”
But Rhode was thinking.
Although he only needs one of each item to copy it, he'd rather only copy items with high added value or extremely rare items to make the most efficient use of his daily magic.
This way, whether it's triggering the system's collection rewards or developing the Valkyrie armor, it's more efficient.
Furthermore, if a large number of merchants, greedy for profit, are not afraid of death and come to Arcadia, it will also drive economic development.
It's a win-win situation.
Anyway, his money is essentially like blowing air.
As for the possible inflation that the Asra Kingdom might face in the future...
It's none of his business.
He can just switch to a different country and continue to exploit them.
But maybe by then, he won't need to use these tactics anymore.
After repeatedly confirming that Rhode wasn't joking, the 看板娘, biting her lip, risked being beheaded by Rhode and advised with a hoarse voice.
“Your Majesty, although you have a lot of gold coins, it's still not enough... ”
Bang bang bang bang—
Rhode threw five or six bags of gold coins in a row, directly knocking her head dizzy.
“Money, I have plenty, but I don't want too many people to know I have money.”
The 看板娘's eyes began to glaze over.
No, Your Majesty, you really have more money?
“Not enough?”
Bang bang bang bang bang—
Another seven or eight bags of gold coins.
The 看板娘's mind began to wander.
“Tsk, still not enough?”
“Wait... enough, enough, it's enough for now! Your Majesty, please stop!”
The 看板娘 quickly reached out to stop Rhode, then looked at the bags of gold coins piled up on the ground, feeling a headache and fear.
She had never seen so much money!
She even suspected that Rhode had robbed the royal treasury of the Asra Kingdom.
But if Arcadia had such strength, there would be no need to act so cautiously.
It's also a mystery how he came in empty-handed, yet pulled out these money bags.
But the 看板娘 has survived to this day because of her ability to assess the situation.
She didn't ask, nor did she speculate about those questions, she only knew that after witnessing all this, she had no way out!
The 看板娘 frowned, seriously considering Rhode's orders, but soon looked troubled.
No matter how she thought about it, Rhode's request was too whimsical!
It's okay to purchase things, the Adventurer's Guild has partnerships with many merchants.
But to hide the source of the gold coins and the destination of the goods, that would be too difficult!
It can be said that anyone with a heart, with just a simple investigation, could find out the truth.
Rhode ignored the 看板娘's troubled expression, patted his collar, slowly stood up, and calmly said.
“I only need half a year at most.”
The 看板娘's pupils suddenly contracted.
Unknown wealth, extraordinary skills, a hidden Majesty...
Can he confidently face the covetousness of all his enemies in just half a year...
Rhode walked calmly towards the door, without turning back, said.
“No matter what items you purchase under the name of the Adventurer's Guild, I will leave a five percent commission for the guild.”
“In addition, I will give you an extra one percent profit.”
“If you still can't meet my requirements, then...”
Rhode did not finish his sentence, but the 看板娘 felt a chill in her heart.
“I, I understand!”
She suddenly thought of something and quickly reached out to call.
“Wait, Your Majesty, the guild just happens to have some good things!”
A moment later.
Rhode squatted in front of the box that the 看板娘 had brought, curiously picking up a piece of crystal that was as clear as water.
“This is...”
The system's prompt immediately sounded.
【Congratulations, Host, for collecting the A-rank item, Magic Crystal.】
【Reward: Thunder Dragon Slayer Magic Crystal!】
