My Players Are So Fierce

Why not?

“You really don’t often show up at this place at this time, quite a surprise to see you here and your eyes, they seem to be filled with an indescribable…

determination.

May I be so bold as to ask, what have you just encountered?”

In the corridor office, having just completed the “003 Corpse Decay Project Plan Phase One,” Dog Planner Murphy put down his feather pen, looking at Count Andrei who had just come in through the door.

The Governor’s handsome face was all smiles, and from the twinkle in his eyes, it was clear that this rascal knew exactly why Andrei had come.

He just wanted to hear the younger but equally ambitious Earl say it himself.

“I don’t believe you haven’t arranged listening spells in your corridors, but frankly, I don’t care about that, and I must speak bluntly, I feel you have recruited a group of formidable individuals from another world.”

Count Bai of White Mountain said irritably:

“One of them had just taken me through a deep mental bewitchment, I know he intends to exploit my name and position, yet I must admit, their nonsense made some sense.

I have made my decision, and my coming here is merely to confirm whether the industry I am about to invest in has the official sanction and protection from the Transian government?

Please understand, Governor Murphy, my background and my style dictate that I cannot engage in activities that would dishonor my family.”

“If what you’re asking is this, I will tell you, I do not support their actions, but I will not oppose them either, whether the emergence of an another world casino will be good or bad for this land is something time will have to prove.”

Murphy tapped the casino proposal that Milian had just brought to him, the guys had given the casino an appealing name called “Treasure Bay.”

While the location they chose was right next to a bay current of Kaderman River, giving it that name wasn’t too far-fetched, but…

tsk, don’t pretend I don’t know where you got that inspiration from!

This is setting our sights on becoming the chief gnome of Transia.

But these thoughts and rants couldn’t be revealed to Count Andrei, so Murphy changed to a gentler tone to convey his truest thoughts to the nobleman before him.

He said:

“My Governor told me this project will definitely make a lot of money, and with your participation, it will be a hit at once when Nord the great businessman, who has already entered Transia’s territory, completes his first transaction in Bataxin City and visits Crimson Castle.

This is a rare opportunity for such an ‘entertainment industry.’

But my advice to you is, in consideration of your reputation, it would be better for you not to get personally involved, choosing a ‘white glove’ is the most prudent way.

Do you need me to introduce a few?”

“No need.”

Andrei had his answer after hearing Murphy’s response, feeling reassured.

Then, he awkwardly replied:

“My servant Vista will take care of these issues for me, and I have another delicate favor to ask of you today.

It’s embarrassing to say, but I may need to borrow some money from you for investment purposes.”

This was probably the first time the nobly born Andrei had ever made such an improper request to someone else; his fair face betrayed a blush of red from nerves and thin skin.

Murphy was taken aback by the request but then immediately caught on, thinking how very effective this bewitchment was, leading Andrei into a corner with just a few words.

The Vampire Lord immediately stood up, saying:

“Aren’t you being a little too extreme?

What I mean is, I know you want to distance yourself from your sister and the Duke to prove your independence and growth, but there is no need for such a complete split.

You need to grasp this subtle balance.

I believe if you were to return all your current wealth to North Wind Castle, it would send an unnecessarily dangerous signal to Wolf Queen Majesty, implying that you might be severing some ties.

What I mean is, it’s better to simply stop asking for aid from now on, no need to suddenly turn yourself into a pauper.”

“I understand, Governor, I am not that reckless.”

Andrei explained:

“The White Mountain Faction’s funds and resources have all been sealed away until the failure of my personal ventures befalls; they will not be touched.

My thought is that I should start from scratch like you, those resources represent a form of ‘cowardice,’ if I use them again, it proves I’m not as excellent as I think.

This is a test for myself.”

“Hmm, your actions show your resolve, and of course, I will help you, as a friend and comrade.”

Murphy nodded and said:

“Later, enough funds for your initial investment will be delivered to your residence, but please understand, since you want to give yourself a challenge, then let’s do everything by the book.

The money I lend you will have interest, definitely lower than the market rates.”

“I accept!”

Andrei exhaled a breath of relief, saying:

“Don’t you want me to sign a note of debt?

If my investment fails, you can take it and demand repayment from my sister at North Wind Castle.”

“I fear I would be struck down by Nord royal guards the moment I step into the Ice Palace.”
