"...Actually, when I first accepted the mission, I didn't think it was you!! Really, I won't lie to you. If I had known it was you, I probably wouldn't be tempted no matter how generous the reward for the mission was."
Now that Allen had seen through it, Jack had nothing to hide and immediately told the story of how he took on the mission.
As a native of Thunder Town, Jack, the Shadow Walker, naturally has a lot of eyes and ears in the town. The Kobold who led Ye at that time was one of Jack's eyes and ears. Although, with Jack's style of doing things, he would not take on such a dangerous task as an assassination, but the task of finding an object is actually something that can be said to be easy for him.
You must know that the junior professional thieves of the Shadow Walker are not in vain. The vast majority of talented people who have awakened the shadow energy use their awakened abilities for things like stealing. The awakened primary profession is called a thief. Jack is no exception. In the heavily discriminated kobold town, Jack has been able to survive as an orphan until now. Naturally, he has done many things like stealing chickens and dogs. Therefore, for him, finding things is just a matter of going. It's just stealing, you don't necessarily have to kill the target to succeed.
But what Jack didn't expect was that the target of this mission turned out to be Allen, the Bugbear, whom he had interacted with and even had a crush on.
Jack, who was originally worried about how to sneak into the opponent's side without being discovered, caught up with Allen's team and sneaked up to the opponent's team to see Allen's face clearly. He was immediately ecstatic and sneaked into the opponent's side. The problem of theft was solved so easily.
What happened after that was what Allen saw. Jack didn't need to go into details. Allen himself knew it very well.
"So, the tasks the other party has suspended are all related to me?"
Allen frowned.
"Well, I was also afraid that you would go out and sell these two glass bottles today, so I invited you to drink, and I planned to get you drunk and get the things in your hands. But don't worry, for the task of assassinating you, I I really didn’t participate, otherwise I would have taken action just now.”
Jack nodded and explained to Alan.
"Hmph, you should be lucky that you didn't have the idea of killing me, otherwise you would be a dead body now!!"
Allen glared at Jack contemptuously. If Jack had done anything detrimental to himself at that time, there would be no goblin still alive and kicking now. At the same time, Allen's eyes full of evil thoughts glanced back and forth at Jack and asked.
"But let's not finish this matter yet. Tell us how you want to end it?"
"I, I, I, I will stay to help you teach little Irene until you return to Thunder Town. How about I don't give her all my skills for a penny in compensation?"
If he really wanted to escape, Jack might not have no hope, but to be honest, the current closed environment was very unfavorable for Jack. The risks were greater than the opportunities, so Jack was very submissive and came up with what he thought was the best way to return.
"This is what you said, I didn't force you!"
Allen's fierce eyes gradually disappeared, and then he put on a friendly smile again.
"If you run away midway, I know where your home is~~"
The syllable of the word "oh" was dragged out for a long time, and the rhyme in it made Jack's expression change again and again. He shook his head repeatedly and said: "How could I do such a thing? Jack will do what I promised you."
"That's good. It's getting late. Let's go to bed first. There are still a lot of things to do tomorrow."
Allen nodded with satisfaction, then stretched out, and fell down to occupy most of the bed. When Jack came to his senses helplessly, and wanted to squeeze in with Allen, he was told by Allen. He dismissed it and didn't dare to compete with Allen for a bed: "I'm used to sleeping alone, so you'd better find another place to make do with it."
"..."
Looking at the simple furnishings in the room, Jack sadly found two benches and put them together, and just lay there and spent the night.
The next day, Allen gave the clan members a day off, and then asked Jack, a free laborer, to take them around the city to see the prosperity of the outside world. Allen himself, holding a little goblin in one hand, took Eileen and Kerr with him and found the dark alley in the North City to meet an old man.
"Hello, welcome."
Deep in the dark alley, the Slave Chamber of Commerce with a shackles door sign welcomed a guest. The human clerk took the initiative to greet him with a gentle smile.
"Hello, I would like to ask, is Ferok from your Chamber of Commerce here?"
Allen held two curious babies, motioned them to quiet down with his eyes, and then asked.
"Ah, sir, do you know Master Ferok from our Chamber of Commerce?"
The human guy asked in surprise.
"Well, Master is kind to me. I brought some specialties during this visit to give to Master."
Allen nodded. Although the other party might have forgotten him, he kept in mind the kindness the other party had given to Allen. If the other party hadn't forcefully sold those human craftsmen to him, it's hard to say that everyone in the Green Field Tribe would still be hungry.
"You are really lucky. The master is on duty to look after the store today. May I go and ask for you?"
When the human clerk saw that Allen was related to the chief appraiser of his chamber of commerce, he received him even more enthusiastically.
"I wonder what your guest's name is?"
"Just tell the master that Alan Witt from the Green Bugbear Tribe came to express his gratitude for recommending human slaves that day."
Allen was a little uneasy. Whether Ferok still remembered him was a question. After all, he was the chief appraiser of the Slave Chamber of Commerce, and he was just a bugbear whom he met by chance.
"Ah, it turns out you are the guest. I thought you looked familiar!"
"Guest, please wait a moment. I'll go and be back soon."
After receiving Allen's reminder, the human guy immediately thought of it. After taking a closer look at Allen's face, he found that it was indeed somewhat familiar, and then hurried to the second floor to report to Ferok.
Alan didn't have to wait long before the sound of "tap, tap, tap" footsteps came from the wooden stairwell. Allen suddenly felt a little nervous. This visit to Ferok, Allen came with full expectations. Because he needs the help of this old goblin to provide the tribe with the talents it needs for its future development.
"Oh, it turns out you are a little guy, what? Have you changed your career to take care of children now?"
In the end, Master Ferok still did not disappoint Allen. Not long after the human buddy Sam stepped forward to report the news, he came down from the second floor of his shift. Seeing Allen, Master Ferok's expression remained calm and indifferent. However, when he noticed the two well-behaved little goblins in Allen's hands, his eyes became a little warmer, and he instantly regained his indifference.
