I Married the Beautiful Female Protagonist In Order To Survive - Chapter 895
11. Good guy, you’re serious?
This sudden scene didn’t give me much time to think!
While I was still wondering “why Nilu would suddenly make such a decision behind my back”, the “Town Guard A” not far in front of me had already started yelling at the shop owner. The shop owner initially wanted to refuse, feeling innocent and bewildered, but after learning that “this is for the Rodema Empire and everything inside will be bought by the Rodema Empire”, he didn’t intend to insist anymore!
No one wants to go against a kingdom, especially when the other party is ready to pay, there is even less reason to refuse!
This time, there’s no time for me to think!
Exchanging a glance and confirming that Kefeier had the same idea, even though we were in a hurry, we could only “forcefully parachute” to interrupt this extra’s momentum.
“Wait a moment, I’m still a customer here, and I haven’t bought all the books I want. Confiscate whatever you want, but let me finish buying first. Shopkeeper, pack up all the books we selected in that room as per your request and give them to us.”
“Who cares about you!?”
From the beginning, I already felt that this extra’s attitude towards us was off. After all, all the “onlookers” around had been driven away, leaving only Kefeier and me. He had already “lost interest in us.” And now, by forcefully interrupting him, we had completely angered this head guard.
“Don’t you understand!? The Rodema Empire is confiscating this place! From now on, everything in this store belongs to the Rodema Empire. Still want to buy something? Don’t block the way, get out early and don’t cause trouble!”
“……”
This straightforward attitude left me at a loss for a moment. If possible, I wouldn’t provoke him here. I would take Kefeier and leave immediately, as I didn’t want these trivial matters caused by extras in the script to disturb my wife’s mood.
But the problem is: according to the script, I can’t leave now. The confiscation of this “bookstore” should be Nilu’s order. Nilu also wants to help me investigate the history of the white-haired elves, but for some reason, this result would lead to the disappearance of the “main storyline” I was looking for!
This left me puzzled! After all: I understood the slight pressure Kefeier applied to my hand, indicating that the extra in front of us was a “regular member” of the Rodema Empire, not some bandit in disguise.
And the next moment, the banner he raised surprised me even more!
After all, our reluctance to leave had already made these extras, who were preparing to drive everyone away and seal the store, impatient!
“Scare you to death! Everything inside is to be confiscated and given to the ‘king’ of the Rodema Empire! Understand!? If you understand, don’t cause trouble, get out quickly.”
Given to the “king of the Rodema Empire”? Wouldn’t that ultimately be given to me? Instead of confiscating and sealing it, why not let me take it directly, without any middlemen making a profit…
The banner raised by this extra surprised me, and I couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Obviously, I couldn’t say that. Kefeier and I came to the Rodema Empire to conduct a low-key investigation. Even if I claimed to be the “king” of the Rodema Empire, these extras in the script probably wouldn’t believe it.
This is a bit troublesome, and… I couldn’t help but wonder: clearly, the death script around me had disappeared, so the less “dangerous” scripts should have disappeared too. It’s like the final BOSS is dead, and the minions around the BOSS should have fled immediately…
Why did we still encounter such a situation as soon as we arrived in the Rodema Empire with Kefeier?
I don’t have time to think about it now, and I can’t reveal my identity. So, I can only use the most ordinary way to stop the extra’s actions.
Thinking of this, I said, “Confiscate whatever you want, but according to the order of arrival, we should buy first and then leave, right?”
“Hey? Who are you!? Didn’t I just warn you two, are you deaf!?”
The script of death did not appear, but instead, the extra in front of me was furious after being surprised by my “argument”!
He took a step forward, intending to “teach me a lesson,” but after I stepped back and dodged, his hand pushed into the air, making him even more enraged!
“You have no right to speak here. This is the Rodema Empire, and everything is decided by the king of the Rodema Empire!”
Isn’t that the “ignorant kid” in front of you? The trouble is: because I don’t want to reveal my identity, his attitude is getting worse.
“Moreover, you two don’t look like locals of the Rodema Empire at all! You don’t even know the rules of the Rodema Empire!”
As he spoke, the extra’s gaze began to scrutinize us. His attitude towards me was very impatient, but he lingered on Kefir for quite a while.
I was too lazy to look at the thoughts in this guy’s mind, but… the threat he made to us next put me in a situation where I had to make a decision!
“Where are you from!? Do you have proof of activity in the Rodema Empire!?”
Is there such a thing in the Rodema Empire now!?
As for the proof this extra mentioned, Kefir and I obviously didn’t have it. After all… if we were to go by our identities, what proof would I need!? But at this moment, it was the beginning of trouble.
“If you don’t have it, turn around and stand against the wall! Wait to be investigated by the empire!”
[Euclid’s identity is exposed in the Rodema Empire!]
The script appeared, indicating: if we insist on causing unnecessary trouble in such a place, then Kefir and I’s plan to “keep a low profile” and have some fun would suddenly fall through. I don’t know what the result will be if my true identity is exposed, but considering Kefir’s thoughts and safety, I can only “keep a low profile” here and leave with Kefir.
The script of death has disappeared, and I don’t want to do anything head-on anymore. As the saying goes, a true man knows when to yield and when not to. At this moment, it’s obviously about Kefir’s mood. After all, the look in my dear wife’s eyes has already conveyed a message: don’t waste time here.
As for the documents in this bookstore, they were all ordered to be taken away by Nilu. We can always go see Nilu later and probably find the “clues in the script” we lost this time.
I held Kefir’s hand tightly.
From noble mtl dot com
“Let’s go.”
However, just as we were about to leave, the extra relentlessly pursued us!
“Wait! Who allowed you to leave so brazenly!”
He took a step forward! These extras’ bullying behavior had already annoyed me, but for the sake of my wife’s good mood, I chose to slip away. This time, not only did he want to stop us, but he also probably saw Kefir’s outstanding appearance and wanted to take advantage of the situation, reaching his hand towards Kefir!
Even though Kefir would never let this guy succeed, I can’t just pretend I didn’t see it!
“【Looking for death!】”
I slapped this extra with a backhand, and instinctively voiced my truest thoughts at that moment!
However, the next moment, a bizarre scene unfolded before our eyes!
“……”
The extra I slapped was stunned for a moment, and then immediately!
He turned around and started banging his head against a pillar with a “bang bang bang”!
