"Time Bug?"
Knight whispered, looking up at the street.
Don't meet anyone wearing monocles, it's creepy. "Is it magic? Time magic? Or magic to summon bugs?"
It's just a name, and the specific reward will only be known after the task is completed.
He took a look at the current number of registered users on Magic Internet. [Total number of registered users: 9119. ] This is less than 10,000 people, two-thirds away from the task target.
Speaking of which, the total number of first-generation rings obtained from the system is 11,100.
Knight still has more than a thousand left, even if all are activated, it's still far from enough. "Need second-generation rings..."
Thinking of this, Knight walked towards the apartment while opening his friends and sent a message to Lucy's father.
Sigma Man: [Mr.
Jiude, good evening, how is the first batch of rings being made?]
Jiude Heartfilia: [We have prepared a batch of about 30,000 rings. Do you need them now?]
Isn't this a coincidence?
Knight walked to the door of the apartment and met Lucy.
"Knight!"
"Good evening, Lucy."
Knight greeted her and saw that she wanted to run away like she did in the morning, so he quickly grabbed her wrist.
"Why are you running?" Knight was speechless.
"I...I didn't run!"
Lucy refused to admit it, and her face turned slightly red.
I noticed that she was holding some vegetables and meat in her hands, and seemed to be preparing to cook.
Knight thought about it and smiled: "Let's go and have a meal with your dad!"
"Ah?"
"No, let's go." Knight immediately activated the time-space magic Flying Thunder God.
The last time he went to visit, he deliberately left the coordinates for future visits.
A golden magic circle unfolded under the feet of the two, and the light flashed. In Lucy's blank expression, the two disappeared at the same time.
At the same time.
The Heartfilia family.
In front of the gilded statue in front of the villa.
The golden magic circle unfolded, and Lucy and Knight appeared here in an instant.
"My home!?"
Lucy opened her eyes wide.
This teleportation magic is too convenient!
Such a long distance, back in an instant.
Knight let go of his hand and walked into the villa first:
"Is anyone there?"
Lucy had to follow the ingredients for dinner and saw the familiar maid coming from the corridor to the hall.
"Mrs. Spette~"!"
The middle-aged maid Spette was surprised: "Miss Lucy, Master Knight."
Why are you calling me Master? I'm not into it.
Knight thought, and asked: "Is Mr. Jiude here?"
"The master is in the restaurant."
"It seems to be dinner time, you don't mind if I add a meal. "
Knight took Lucy with him again and walked towards the restaurant without any hesitation.
Lucy's villa is very luxurious, with three restaurants alone.
Main restaurant, servant restaurant, guest restaurant.
The last time she had dinner with Jiude was in the main restaurant, Knight knew the way.
Lucy immediately rolled her eyes at him, whose house is this?
When the two came to the main restaurant, they saw Jiude Heartfilia.
Jiude was very happy about his daughter and Knight's sudden return, and immediately asked the kitchen to prepare more food.
It was a very pleasant dinner.
After dinner.
Knight and Jiude came to the study.
Jiude asked someone to take out the 30,000 second-generation rings that had been prepared.
"I acquired several magic prop workshops and asked the prop masters to make trial works. Do you think they meet the requirements?"
As expected of a rich man, a big chaebol, he made 30,000 trial works at a time.
Knight was envious, opened the box, grabbed a handful of rings from it, and nodded after sampling and observing:
"No problem, after I add Internet magic to them, they can be put on the market for sale.
If there is a problem, it is that the materials used do not look very good.
Capitalists are experts in reducing costs.
"That's good!"
Jiude breathed a sigh of relief.
He has been under a lot of pressure recently.
He rejected the marriage proposal from the Qiu Renier family and offended them.
The railway company had previously expanded blindly and entered the south, investing a huge amount of money, which has led to problems with its capital chain.
If the Heartfilia chaebol cannot rely on the ring to open up a huge market, it may be in big trouble.
Of course, he couldn't say these words to Lucy, but he could talk to Knight.
This company is the result of the joint efforts of him and Lucy's mother, and he must keep it no matter what. "It seems that you have encountered a lot of trouble."
Knight added Internet magic to the ring while saying to Jiude: "Is someone eyeing the Heartfilia chaebol?"
In the original book, it suddenly went bankrupt and was acquired, which must have been done by someone.
Jiude nodded: "There are some troubles, but don't worry, the ring will not be delayed." "I'm worried about your personal safety."
The struggle between capital is much more dangerous than the battle between wizards.
Heartfilia Railway Company, what a big piece of fat meat is that?
Jiu De was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Knight to care about his safety. He couldn't help but laugh:
"No, those people's goal is only the company."
At the same time, he thought, I don't know how far Knight and Lucy have come. Haven't they started dating yet?
Young people just don't understand. As long as he is brave enough to express his feelings, he will probably agree with his daughter.
Jiu De already regards Knight as half a son-in-law, hoping that he can get along well with Lucy.
Knight pondered for a moment and suggested:
"I talked to the speaker of the Council before. The Council needs a large number of magic net rings.
"Mr. Jiu De, you can add the speaker as a friend and cooperate with the Council. "
Selling rings is one thing, and getting Jiude an official cooperative merchant of the Council is a brilliant move.
"Council?"
Jiude was shocked. As an excellent businessman, he understood the subtext instantly.
He couldn't help but admire Knight more and more, wondering whether he should help this kid.
But forget it. I promised Lucy not to interfere in her life before, so as not to cause her daughter's disgust and backfire.
".~ I know, I will visit you later!"
Jiude made up his mind to take the ring to the Council tomorrow.
Although communication can be done on the magic network, sincerity is not enough.
Knight has no objection to this.
It took half an hour to add Internet magic to more than 30,000 rings.
Jiude called a maid and asked her to put on the ring to test whether it was smooth.
After everything was fine, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
So, he kindly invited Knight to stay overnight.
Knight did not refuse.
The next day.
Knight brought Lucy returned to Magnolia.
"How come dad is closer to you than to me? Who is the biological child?"
After returning, Lucy couldn't help but complain about her coquettishness.
"We are one family, but we are talking about different things. " Knight teased.
"Who is your family? I'm going to the guild!"
Lucy blushed and hurried to the guild.
The eldest lady's reaction is always so interesting (OK).
Knight thought with a smile, "Next, wait for Jiude to sell the ring, and the task can be completed, right?"
While thinking, Knight went home to take a shower, thinking that the tool man of the missing body was idle.
So he arranged to continue writing code.
Just make a new game. There are only three games in the game section, which is a bit monotonous.
The next few days are all peaceful daily routines.
In the morning, he temporarily went to the guild to eat breakfast made by Mira.
At noon, Juvia would prepare a lunch box for him.
At night, Lucy was his exclusive little cook.
Of course, Knight did not forget to learn the law of fairies from Makarov.
At noon that day, the guild was under construction.
Erza suddenly found him.
"Knight, look at this!"
She pointed to her own magic net forum, one of the posts.
"I asked a question on the magic net, and someone finally gave information about the Tower of Heaven!"
Knight looked at her posting record curiously.
Erza is really diligent.
Since she came back from the Council Headquarters with him, she has been posting every day. [Shocked! Tower of Heaven is actually...]
