âSir, please leave with your people now. Once Brutus and his friends return, you wonât be able to. Now that youâre outside, itâs better not to cause any trouble. Harmony brings wealth, right? It wonât be good for anyone if this blows up. Iâll waive the bill for your meal. Please leave, please?â
He did not want to help David, but what if the conflict destroyed the inn?
Who would pay?
Brutus and his hedonist friend?
No way!
The only ones who would offend those scoundrels were the ones who did not want to stay in this city anymore.
However, with his years of experience, the owner could tell that those in front of him were not weak either.
âSir, youâre the boss of this place, right?â David asked as he ate.
âYes!â The old man answered.
âDonât worry! If anything is broken, we will pay you double. We will not let you suffer any losses.â
âSir, compensation is nothing. Iâm just worried about your safety. As the saying goes, no matter how powerful you are, you will never be more powerful than a local tyrant. Brutus and his friends are used to being arrogant and stuck up. They have suffered such a huge loss here and surely wonât give up.
Youâre going to stay here for one night only anyway so itâs the same if you leave now, donât you think?â
David put down the cutlery in his hands when he heard that. He looked at the old man and said with a grin, âSir, youâre right, but we canât just leave because we want to. If Iâm not wrong, there should be people monitoring our every move out there right now. No matter where we go, they will surely find us.
If thatâs the case, why waste the energy? Wonât it be better to just wait here? Iâll only have the energy to fight after I eat, right?â
At this moment, Pebbles, who was in Davidâs arms, woke up slowly. When she heard there would be a fight, she became energized.
âDavey, who are you fighting? Iâll help you. Weâll beat up the bad guys together!â
âPebbles, be nice. Leave the fighting for the adults. Youâre still so small so you canât think about violence all the time. You should behave like a child. Weâll talk about fighting when youâre older. Have some food now. After you eat, you should go back to sleep. You will grow up after a few more nights of sleep.â
David caressed Pebblesâ small head and took out a shining elixir for her.
Pebblesâ eyes lit up and she took the elixir.
âThank you, Davey! I will surely help you beat up bad guys when I grow up!â
She finished the elixir quickly and nuzzled against Davidâs chest to find a comfortable spot before falling asleep.
The little girl woke up quickly but she also fell asleep quickly.
Her body needed a lot of energy to help heal her soul power.
It might seem like she just had an elixir, but it was an extremely expensive soul weed.
It was even more valuable than a Beast Crystal.
This was the treasure of heaven and earth that the other three major forces from Sole gave David when they visited after David wiped out the Macee family.
Of course, David spent some money on it too.
How would he give up on a chance to get lavish points?
Beanie, Princess Evie, and the other Elf women at Davidâs table were already used to this.
David had always spoiled Pebbles and they were used to this.
To the side, the owner of the inn was staring at the little girl in Davidâs arms.
What did he just see?
That little girl just ate a soul weed!
That was a soul weed, right?
He should be right.
How could she dare eat it just like that?
Could her small body endure the power of the soul weed?
Wouldnât it break her body?
Also, aside from whether she could endure it, even if she could, did she really just eat a very precious treasure of heaven and earth?
The scene just now challenged the ownerâs perception.
