"Is that what happened?"
After hearing what he said, Joseph breathed a sigh of relief on the spot. He got up from the ground and patted his chest exaggeratedly as if he was surviving a disaster.
"It's because I was overly nervous. I should have thought that you are not that kind of person." Seeing that the two of them showed no hostility, they smiled as playfully as before.
However, in comparison, Barong did not have the nature to joke with the other party. Looking into the other party's eyes, he suppressed his smile and said: "I heard from the gossip that the once famous Rebel adventure group has now disappeared. It exists in name only, and its members have all become street rats and have no place to live. However, although you are no longer active openly, your shadow still exists in the records of many large or small events. It can be seen from the Empire I think it must be related to your extensive network of people that you have survived to this day under the surveillance of the great magician Sabatos Ryder."
"Just stop beating around the bush and just tell me, what do you want me to do for you?"
"Spread a message to the entire capital. I'll give you three days."
"Is that all? Brother, you are looking down on me. Don't look at my usual recklessness. Maybe I am not good at fighting, but when it comes to intelligence work, don't say three days, just half a day. I can also disseminate it to you, and ensure that the information is accurate!"
"Is the information accurate? Say goodbye. It was very problematic when you spread rumors about the Hero. According to you, the Hero was twelve years old when he fought Sabbatos Ryder, so the former must be over thirty now. But the fact is that the brave man is still less than twenty-five years old until now."
Precisely because it was Joseph who spread the information in the first place, Artolis had reason to doubt his work attitude.
"The great saint-level magician who is admired by everyone is fighting with a child. If this actual situation is to be publicized, the reputation of the great magician Ryder will inevitably be affected. There is nothing we can do!" The other party had a misunderstanding, and Joseph quickly clarified.
"That seems to make sense."
"Look, what I said is right! I am a very trustworthy person, and I do what I say, otherwise there would be no reason to hang around until now. You can trust me on this. But strangely enough, it should not have been disclosed above It’s just the rumor, but where did you get the information about the brave men?”
"Does this need to be said? Of course, you will feel strange about this because you have seen it with your own eyes." Looking at Joseph's confused look, Artolis rolled her eyes at him as she spoke.
"Saw it with your own eyes?!" After hearing this, Joseph felt a little surprised. After re-examining the two people's postures and attires, he was speechless in shock.
"Wait a minute! Could it be that you two are the rumored "Moonfall Knight" and "Sage Tianhui"? "
"???"
Not only Artoris, but also Baron looked confused after hearing this.
"What's this...what's the name?" Puzzled by this, he asked, thinking about Artolis.
"Haven't you heard of it? This really doesn't make sense. Apparently it is rumored to have originated from Kleinia."
"We came back from Tianyu Xialang and did not take the usual route, so we don't know anything about it. If this matter has something to do with us, then we might as well talk about it for now."
"About three years ago, a five-person adventure group returned from Tianyu Xialang and submitted to the Adventurers Association the fact that the lord of the fourth floor, the Sky Dragon, had been defeated. This was surprising at the time. It can be said to be breaking news that can shock the mainland. After the association confirmed the authenticity of this rumor, this great achievement of the dragon slayer has received an astonishing response on the mainland that is not considered a hero's achievement."
Joseph spoke excitedly, picked up the wine glass on the side and sat opposite Baron: "According to the description of the person involved, there are three dragon-slaying heroes. One of them is the former Shui Nianliu Sword King Elena, and the next two The reporter did not give the exact name, but only identified him as a man and a woman, the man has brown hair and one arm, and the woman has blond hair and blue eyes."
"Since Elena is mentioned, the remaining two are really referring to us."
Judging from the time when the rumor was initiated and the description of the incident, it is undoubtedly the "masterpiece" of Celica and others. Thinking of Atoris and Baron, they looked at each other, and then looked at Joseph again.
"But what are these two titles about?"
"Of course that is the title given by the private adventurer organization to the person who slays the dragon. That group of adventurers has always been like this. They only remember the title but not the person's name. It's convenient. But I really didn't expect that it was really you two. Then But dragons, the real dragons, are the ones that even the brave can’t defeat…”
"Okay, we understand, now let's talk about the tasks I assigned you."
"Uh... Didn't you change the topic a bit abruptly?"
"Indeed, there is no need to rush into this matter, and giving you a three-day time limit is not to doubt your efficiency."
"Okay, the topic is indeed far away, let's talk about business."
After giving Balong such a toss, Joseph suddenly lost all interest. Facing the "kind" look from the other party, he reluctantly forced out a smile.
"So, what is the news you want me to spread?"
…
"Hey, have you heard? The end is coming!"
"Please, there is nothing to be afraid of. If the sky falls, there will be someone tall to hold it up. Even if the devil comes, don't we still have brave men? The brave man will defeat the devil on our behalf and protect the world. "
"Although, things may be more serious than you think."
"What kind of serious method is this? Come here, there are few people here, let's talk about it in detail..."
The Centaur man said, pulling his friend, the pig-headed orc, into a nearby tavern, ready to discuss the ins and outs of this matter. Little did they know that a girl in a cloak passed by them and revealed an unspeakable smile after learning what they were talking about.
In the tavern, the girl found her contact person, chose to sit opposite the guy, and took off the hood that concealed her identity, revealing her golden hair.
"Lord Moonfall Knight, long time no see!"
"In fact, it's only been two days since we last met." Facing the frivolous man holding a wine glass in front of her, Artolis couldn't help rolling her eyes.
"But I have to admit that Baron's vision is indeed good. Judging from the results, his trust in you is not without reason."
"Just think you're complimenting me." Joseph shrugged as he said it, pushing the wine glass on his left side in front of Artolis.
"Now, the invasion of the Demon King's Army has spread throughout the Kotgama Empire, and the same situation has also been organized by the Brave Party in neighboring Shirofens. The continent has fallen into temporary chaos, and people everywhere are panic-stricken. Waiting for the king to make a statement."
"You know, our goal is not to be a king!" Artoris frowned slightly as she took a sip of the fine wine offered by the other party.
"Sabatos Ryder, the great magician, right? As you expected, he is currently busy suppressing public opinion and thinking about ways to deal with the disaster. He is running between the empire and the principality and has no time to care about other things. other matters.”
"Great, that's what he wanted."
