Chapter 208: Chapter 159: A Skeletal Dragon stronger than a level one Grim Reaper, is your apprentice Grim Reaper?_2
“`
The undead skeletal dragon you’ve just signed up is not bad, its strength is stronger than that of a first-level Hell Reaper. Equip him with the Reaper’s gear, and its combat ability may even surpass that of a second-level Reaper, might even have a shot at tussling with a third-level Reaper.
As a Reaper transferred from Hell, he’s perfect for tricking the lesser underworld.”
“???”
Stealing his fruits of labor?
This Intern Reaper that has just been signed up, he hasn’t even released a single bounty mission, and Solomon is already planning to poach him?
Stealing the intern Reaper that this Intern Reaper has signed up… Is there no conscience left?
“You’re transferring Garcia to the area you’re in charge of to pose as a Hell Reaper, and you? What will you do?”
“I’m going to the lesser underworld as a spy.”
“???”
With such a strong Reaper’s aura, going to the lesser underworld as a spy, do you really think those demons, ghosts, and goblins are idiots?
“Here’s a suggestion, if you really want to infiltrate the lesser underworld, you could ask the undead skeletal dragon Garcia if he’s willing to go to the lesser underworld as a spy. If he’s willing, you could let Garcia provoke the lesser underworld under the guise of ‘Evil Dragon Ghost King’ leading his clan members.”
The more ferocious ‘Evil Dragon Ghost King’ Garcia is, the more it will draw the attention of the higher-ups of the lesser underworld. At this moment… let your underlings spread the word… saying ‘Evil Dragon Ghost King’ Garcia has caught the eye of Hell Death God Solomon.
Hell Death God Solomon wants to recruit ‘Evil Dragon Ghost King’, to have ‘Evil Dragon Ghost King’ serve Hell.
If the lesser underworld really has ambition, they will surely contact ‘Evil Dragon Ghost King’ before you do, to have ‘Evil Dragon Ghost King’ join the lesser underworld. Then… let ‘Evil Dragon Ghost King’ play his own game. It would be best if… before ‘Evil Dragon Ghost King’ joins the lesser underworld…
Let him trick you one more time, thoroughly making you, the Hell Reaper, his enemy… His joining the lesser underworld would then allow him to gain the trust of those demons, ghosts, and goblins in the shortest possible time.
After that, you can slowly make your plans.”
“Wait… you’re speaking too fast, I haven’t gotten down some of the details, say it again.”
“….”
It was only then that Lance noticed that the Death God Solomon in the projection had taken out a notebook at some point and was writing down what he said…
Are those few sentences really necessary to write down?
“There’s no need to take notes, I’ll contact Garcia later to see if he is willing to move to your area. If he doesn’t want to, I can’t force him…”
“Let me contact him instead; it shows more sincerity that way.”
“As an Intern Reaper, my salary… half a Hell Gold every six months, and after being promoted, three Hell Gold a year.”
“???”
You animal!!!
Even if Hell’s compensation package is poor, it’s not that poor.
Half a Hell Gold every six months, how can you dare?
You should at least give one Hell Gold a month, not half a Hell Gold every six months. Toiling for a whole year, and only getting a total income of two Hell Gold…
The undead skeletal dragon hasn’t crushed Lance, this damn creature, to death, certainly because he was charmed by Lance’s sweet talk.
When he had inflated Lance’s, this damn creature’s, wages back then, he hadn’t inflated them this much.
“Forget it, I don’t need this Intern Reaper anymore.”
“What’s the matter?”
“I’m afraid that after a while, he actually becomes the Ghost King of the lesser underworld and then devotedly opposes me, the Hell Reaper.”
With that level of compensation, he’ll be bought over by the lesser underworld sooner or later. The lesser underworld’s compensation isn’t less than Hell’s.
The key point is the undead skeletal dragon isn’t human; it’s a dragon. Greedy in life… even more so in death.
Because all of the Giant Dragon’s worst aspects are branded in its bones and soul…
Sending the undead skeletal dragon to the lesser underworld as a spy, if anything goes wrong… it’s just making his own mission more difficult.
“Aren’t you at least a second-level Hell Reaper? Can’t you show a little boldness?”
“Dog Lance, I advise you to be kind.”
Cursing him as a damn creature?
Fine, fine, fine, don’t think just because you’re in Hell that you can’t retaliate.
What he said earlier was just off the cuff, but now… he’s made up his mind to let the undead skeletal dragon Garcia, as ‘Evil Dragon Ghost King’, go to the area under Death God Solomon’s responsibility… looking for trouble…
“Some time ago, I asked you to help me look for those two members of the Demon Race who sneaked off to the Human World, did you find anything?”
“No, such matters you should ask other Reapers for help. Let other Hell Reapers keep an eye out for you. I’ve been busy raising whelps lately and don’t have the energy for anything else.
You’ve never raised whelps, you don’t know how exhausting it is.”
“`
“`
“???”
“`
Raising dragon whelps?
Raising dragon whelps is exhausting, right?
You lie on a rocking chair covered with a blanket, letting the miniature dragon whelp, now the size of a human, climb up and down with a dust rag, cleaning the dust inside the hall.
Is it you raising the dragon whelps?
Or are the dragon whelps raising you?
“When you take the dragon whelp on adventures, just pay a little attention to those two from the Demon Race; one is suspected to be the founder of a Small Underworld, and the other has stolen several Forbidden Curses from the Demon Royal Family.”
“If those two Demons cause trouble in the Human World, they might plunge certain areas into turmoil.”
“Alright, I’ll keep an eye out. Anything else?”
Hell Death God Solomon ended the projection. The Small Underworld was larger than he had imagined—not only did it spread through his area of responsibility, but other Hell Grim Reapers’ regions were also affected.
Those Demon Race souls prefer the Small Underworld. Even if they reincarnate, they’d rather choose the Six Paths of Reincarnation of the Small Underworld than come to Hell.
Work progress hasn’t advanced at all; I wonder if Lance is interested in taking the dragon whelp to visit the Demon Race’s dwelling in the Western Continent.
If Lance is willing, once he reaches the Demon Race, he will definitely be able to help him speed up his work.@@novelbin@@
Lacking ambition but Lance’s professional ability is really strong.
At this point, let’s go play mahjong with those succubi from yesterday to relax a bit; I’m almost out of wages. If I lose again… those succubi will probably make me pay with my body…
…
Lance put away the Grim Reaper’s Scythe. He would deal with contacting the undead Skeletal Dragon Garcia later tonight…
Thunder Dragon Erinna has returned from Saint Blue City.
She didn’t go back to the Temple Holy Mountain on New Year’s Eve, choosing to stay in Saint Blue.
Come to think of it, I haven’t yet fulfilled my promise to teach her swordsmanship.
No choice, I’ve been too busy lately.
“Back already?”
“Mm, how’s your learning going? I see a lot of books on your desk; it’s been nearly a month, how many have you read? And what have you learned?”
Dragonborn Erinna came into the temple, her vertical pupils looking at the young dragon lying on the beam, “What are you doing up there?”
“Cleaning the dust off the beams.”
“Come down, no need to clean. I’ve set up an energy array in the Dragon God Temple, so dust won’t accumulate.”
“Oh.”
The young dragon flew down from the beam and landed next to Thunder Dragon Erinna, “Erinna sister, in our absence from Saint Blue, have you already finished reading so many books?”
“Before I answer your question, I need to share with you, and the Human Viscount, what I’ve learned from reading recently.”
Lance, lying in the rocking chair, looked interestedly at Thunder Dragon Erinna.
Dragons are naturally smart, and it’s normal to gain something from reading so many books. If Erinna keeps up this momentum and studies diligently, she might really become stronger than him one day.
“Dragon whelp, listen carefully—you’re also at the age to learn. Hear what your sister Erinna has gained from reading these days, and see if it helps you.”
“Got it.”
“Having read so many books, I’ve come to one conclusion.”
Summing up all her gains into one point, Erinna’s becoming stronger was just a matter of time.
“That is… I discovered… that no matter what book I read, I can fall asleep in the shortest time. Often, it takes just flipping through two or three pages for me to doze off on the desk… and sleep for a day…”
“So after all these days, I haven’t finished even one book.”
The smile in Lance’s eyes froze, and the young dragon, who was ready to take notes with a pen… paused for a moment… and silently put the pen and homework book into the Lucky Coin.
There were at least dozens of books on the desk. Thunder Dragon Erinna hadn’t finished even one…
“Human Viscount, is there a way for me to stay awake while reading?”
“There is.”
“What is it?”
“Hanging on the beam and pricking one’s thigh.”
“???”
