Volume 1 Chapter 388

Chapter 388: Do Not Neglect Yourself in Accommodation and Food!

In a dark but not narrow space, under the flickering candlelight, in front of a wooden long table.

Lolth felt the gazes of the other five people on him, cleared his throat, and said softly.

"My name is Kululu, I come from the Republic of Seychelles, my job is a warrior, and my strength is only at the first elite level, but with my natural strength, I can compete with higher-level opponents!"

As she said this, she suddenly realized something.

That is, she seemed to be the most ridiculous one!

The excuse of natural strength is really terrible!

Seeing the doubtful expression of even Master Krado, and the way the quiet little figure in the black robe couldn’t help but lift his head, Lolth gently coughed twice.

"Cough, cough…"

But before she could explain, the only one who didn’t show any doubt, Hood, the silly red-haired boy, nodded happily and began to support Lolth.

"Yes, born with great strength, unbelievable—one punch down, and even the butler of the Silver Citadel jumped in surprise!"

"Hmm, that’s it… I guess."

Seeing the other people’s more doubtful looks, Lolth could only give up on explaining and smiled as she spoke.

Although she was confident she could perfectly play this character, she couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy at the moment.

Hood’s words had a strong effect.

However, in the end, Master Krado took the lead in putting this matter behind them.

"Truly remarkable at a young age, we will have to rely more on Ms. Kululu!"

Then, he looked at the last person.

"Well then… Your Excellency, please introduce yourself."

Everyone looked at the short figure in the black robe who had been hardly noticeable.

Just by height, this guy was barely taller than a Hobbit.

But Lolth could sense that the other person seemed to be deliberately suppressing their extraordinary aura.

"’Raven’, Elite Level Advanced, Warrior."

The other person’s voice was deep and calm, with an ordinary tone that was hard to identify by age, but it seemed to be a woman’s voice.

They revealed a clearly coded title and a fake rank of ability, without even mentioning where they were from or what they were good at.

Moreover, Lolth felt that the title "Warrior" didn’t seem quite right.

She glanced again at the girl from the Seven Kingdoms and remembered that she called herself "Sneaker."

Lolth’s suggestion is to switch roles and change the lines.

But anyway, the self-introduction part has finally ended.

Except for Hood and Hobbit Florence, the rest of the people here are talking… mostly just adding extra words.

It seems only Hood believes all these exaggerated words.

"Alright, so… tomorrow morning, we will meet at the North Gate of Silver Citadel."

"This is your deposit."

Master Krado took out a silk bag from his pocket, spun out five gold coins, stood up, and handed them out to everyone present.

"What a generous gesture!"

Even Lolth, the lord of Hillenbrand Town, who is considered very generous by the townspeople, couldn’t help but be amazed inside.

At the same time, this simple way of giving a deposit is indeed rare in this world where extraordinary powers are abused.

If it were another Elite Level mage, they would probably use their magic to send over gold coins, showing off their careful magical control.

Of course, it is also possible that they have gotten used to using magic instead of their hands and feet.

Lolth held the universal gold coin in his hand, lost in thought, while another question appeared in his mind.

"By the way, why would a noble from the United Kingdom of South Sotua give universal gold coins?"

This is the country where the universal currency is the least circulated on the continent.

The main reason is still that there are too many criminals and fraudsters here, so the universal currency often gets… counterfeited.

At least seventy percent of all counterfeit universal coins on the continent come from the United Kingdom of South Sotua and its predecessor, the Sotua United Kingdom.

Therefore, South Sotua’s national currency has a much more complex anti-counterfeiting process than the universal coin.

The higher the status and rank, the more they like to use South Sotua’s own currency.

However, Lolth did not think too much about it.

Anyway, she did not really need that one gold coin.

A noble wouldn’t resort to using fake money.

The other Superoperator mercenaries also had no intention of checking the money; after putting away their coins, they went up the winding staircase, left the underground, and then walked out of the alley, each going their separate ways while waiting for the meeting in the morning.

Lolth watched this scene and fell into deep thought.

She wondered where she would sleep tonight.

It wasn’t that Silver Citadel had no places to stay; as a large city for mercenaries, there were plenty of inns and taverns offering lodging.

The problem was that Lolth had quite high standards for her sleeping environment.

Even when going camping in the wild, she would always bring a very comfortable portable tent.

Most of the funds given to her by the Demon King, aside from building a farm, a laboratory, and a kitchen, were used by Lolth to create a place called "interrogation room," which was actually a bedroom.

The "mercenary inns" where regular mercenaries stay are quite terrible; that would never do!

After thinking it over, Lolth decided to stay in a nicer place!

After all… she just received a "large" reward of one gold coin, so indulging a bit is not strange at all.

Among mercenaries, there are definitely those who live for today and drink today.

With a windfall, it’s not bad to show off a little.

Understanding this, Lolth quickly found her way to the most expensive, upscale inn in Silver Citadel.

"Magic Forest."

The signboard is surrounded by two magical formations, making the shop name always shine brightly.

The entrance is tall and grand, looking like a noble’s mansion.

People coming in and out here either have at least Superlative Level magical energy or wear clothes of nobles or high-ranking members of the Mercenary Guild.

When Lolth stepped in with the Meteor Hammer, he saw an interior that was quite "luxurious" but not overly flashy.

The walls are decorated with vines, the bar is made from natural, rustic tree stumps, and the chandeliers on the ceiling are shaped like leaves made of polished crystals.

It felt as if he had truly entered a Magic Forest.

Lolth glanced up and saw that even the cheapest room costs 77 silver coins a night.

In other words, a night’s stay here costs as much as a regular civilian family would spend on food and drink for a whole year.

Even a hired soldier with a basic rank would need to complete several months of tasks to earn that amount of silver coins.

Even for a bronze medal, this is quite a large expense!

Eighty silver coins can buy a nice enchanted armor or weapon!

But Lolth thought for a moment and decided to book a luxury room.

"I would like a ‘Canopy’ level single room."

As Lolth said this, she tossed two universal gold coins onto the bar.

After all, no one was watching, so why not treat herself to something nice?

Lolth thought this and turned around.

Then she saw…

Ling.
