Chapter 291 The Innocent Little Saint!
After waiting for a long time for the elder brothers to finish dealing with their "business" so that they could get together to discuss, they were interrupted by a tactless prospective saint.
Steven raised his eyebrows and wanted to scold him. He confirmed that the eldest brother in the team, Louis, said "Huh" and said softly:
"Are you the little saint from this morning?"
Mr. Li bowed and saluted, then chuckled and said, "Thank you for helping me out this morning."
Louis just smiled and didn't say much.
However, the other heroes had puzzled expressions on their faces.
Uncle Li immediately told the story of Amy's taking advantage of him in the morning, adding some exaggeration to it, and he also thanked Louis in his words.
Unexpectedly, before Louis made any move, the “rich-hating” Steven snorted coldly: “I knew these politicians were no good!”
"Shh! Shut up! Steven, don't you remember where you are?"
Louis frowned and scolded.
After finishing speaking, he whispered again:
"Steven, I know you're resentful of the Alliance's handling of the massacre pit five years ago, but you should also be aware of the situation."
"Don't ignore all the rules just because you're a hero. You're not strong enough for that!"
Steven, who was scolded by Big Brother, pursed his lips in dissatisfaction, and there was still a hint of unconvinced in his expression.
Seeing this, Louis couldn't help but feel a little headache.
He sighed and could only say earnestly: "There are only five of us left out of the seven heroes. We must be careful and cautious. There is no room for error now."
"Do you think the defeat of Hilda and Oriel had no effect?"
"You are wrong! Now the Alliance has doubts about us. If the hunt for the Undead Lord ends in failure again, then the name of the Brave will be lost in our hands."
"Do you want to leave the name of [Shame of the Brave] in the history books?"
Steven's face turned blue and red after hearing what Louis said, and he didn't know how to respond.
In recent years, there have indeed been many doubts about the heroes within the Human Alliance.
All of this was handled by the big brother Louis, who barely ensured the dignity of the name of the hero.
Hunting the Undead Lord is not just an ordinary decapitation plan, but also represents deeper political and military significance.
If they could successfully behead the Undead Lord, then they would have an explanation to both the authorities and the people.
It can also boost the confidence of the soldiers who are fighting against the demons far away in the north.
It will also be of great benefit to the inevitable trend of fighting against the demon army and the demon king in the future.
It was for these reasons that the brave hunter Louis joined forces with King Amy to stage a drama at the alliance meeting.
This gave the remaining brave men a chance to prove themselves openly.
Official recognition is also very necessary!
Steven, who had figured everything out, also understood Big Brother's good intentions, but due to the occasion, he murmured and said nothing.
It was Senior, the Fist Hero, who laughed and consoled him:
"Okay, okay, Steven is still young, and you don't have to be so angry, Louis."
"We are at a reception now, don't let other nobles laugh at our brothers."
As soon as these words came out, Lewis’s expression eased a little, and soon returned to his usual gentleness.
Steven also nodded slightly, agreeing with the words of the two older brothers.
As friends and brothers, once they talked it out, naturally there was no grudge between them.
Even though it's a little awkward now, our relationship will be closer when we wake up tomorrow morning.
After all, everyone can see that the hunting hero Louis never stood on the side of the nobles from beginning to end. Instead, he stood from the perspective of a hero and a friend to consider and strive for opportunities for them.
"Boss Louis, I did it, you can do whatever you want!"
Steven raised his glass of red wine and drank it all.
Louis smiled and patted his shoulder, saying, "Drink slowly, don't let time pass so quickly, tonight is our last chance to relax."
What a scene of brothers being friendly and respectful to each other!
Uncle Li on the side said in his heart.
Louis turned around, raised his glass apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Betty, I made you laugh."
Uncle Li shook his head and said, "The friendship between the brave men is touching, so how can it be laughed at?"
"Thanks for the compliment."
Louis said with a smile.
As for the other brave men present, after hearing that the little saint was molested by the greasy man Amy Gilbert, they also developed some good feelings towards the little saint who had so rashly disturbed her.
Especially Steven, who has a very serious "hatred of the rich" mentality.
With such a good tone, Uncle Li soon started chatting enthusiastically with several brave men.
As for the other prospective saints present, they looked at this side with extreme envy, and some even couldn't help but say a few sour words.
"Bitch, she finally got the chance!"
"That's right, that's the hero, and I know how he fell in love with this little cucumber."
“…”
If Uncle Li tried to curry favor with other nobles, they would not have such a big reaction.
But Uncle Li was chatting enthusiastically with the brave man who was destined to become a hero of the human race in the future, and the meaning of this was different.
Besides, those handsome and powerful brave men look much better than those disgusting and greasy nobles.
If they could fall in love with one of them, they would be willing to immediately give up their status as a candidate saint and become the other person's lover.
There were many prospective saints who were eyeing the heroes, but they didn't expect that Uncle Li would get there first.
But they can't do anything except curse her as "green tea bitch" in their hearts.
There were several prospective saints and noble ladies who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to sneak in, but they were politely ignored by the brave men, and finally had to leave in disgrace.
Just like that, a banquet was over.
Relying on his rich "life experience", Uncle Li easily became close friends with several young brave men who he regretted not meeting earlier.
Even the most mature and steady Louis developed a liking for this young saint.
Being accustomed to the filthiness of the aristocracy, only such "childlike" innocence could move his heart.
But what they don’t know is that this “childlike” little saint girl actually has an old man who can only shout “Fuck” in his heart.
At the end of the party, Steven was drunk and his face was red. He patted his chest and said to the little saint "Betty":
"Miss Betty, just wait and see. We will definitely get the head of the Undead Monarch back! We will then place it in the divine palace and let the gods condemn his sins! We will make sure that he will never be able to turn over a new leaf for generations to come!"
Steven was obviously very tall, and his voice attracted a lot of people's attention.
Louis sighed helplessly, asked the Sword Hero Roy to quickly support him, and said to Mr. Li:
"Ms. Betty, please forgive Steven for offending the Divine Court."
Uncle Li shook his head, with admiration in his eyes:
"Master Steven and all the brave masters, you all have a strong heart. Betty will pray for you, and wish you good luck in martial arts and a smooth journey!"
Perhaps moved by Betty's admiring look, Louis smiled gently, and finally looked around, lowering his voice and said:
"The Brave Team will set out in ten days. If Miss Betty has time..."
The words were not finished.
On his tipsy little face, Mr. Li showed the sweetest smile and said, "Betty understands. Betty will definitely see you off when the time comes."
In the end, Louis and a few brave men carried the drunk Steven away from the party.
They did not take any female companions with them when they left. They waved and said goodbye to Uncle Li with a smile.
What they didn't see was that shortly after they turned and left, a hint of an unnoticed sneer flashed across Uncle Li's innocent little face.
