This is much more troublesome than money… Upon hearing Aester's request, Jiang Baimian—who only had two Grand Knight gold coins—sighed. She then asked, "What is it? If it's too difficult and exceeds our abilities, we can only choose to give up."
She deliberately didn't show that they were determined to get an answer out of him, lest Aester went overboard with his request. If that happened, the situation would become even messier and even bring them trouble.
Shang Jianyao didn't whimper, nor did he nod or shake his head. He was rather cooperative.
Aester seemed to sink into his memories, and it took for him a while before he said, "What I need your help with might be very dangerous for others. Apart from those who have nothing to speak of except their lives, nobody will be willing to take on the job. However, you are different."
Jiang Baimian frowned and asked, "Mr. Aester, aren't you overestimating us?"
