What was more important in the slums?
Dignity?
No, it was money!
With money, they would not starve, they would have a house to live in, and they would be able to survive.
Leo already knew this at such a young age.
"Let me answer."
Leo didn't know if this 'amazing' person would endure it, so he took the initiative and said,
"Excuse me, what do you want to ask?"
However, he was not treated well.
" I'm asking you a question," the tall woman chided." You idiot! Mind your own position!"”
She even snorted." Let me ask you, have you seen a girl around your age with light purple hair around here?”
Leo didn't see the girl's figure, but a cloth bag…and three adult men in the place where he lived. When the three of them returned from their trip today, one of them was carrying a sack on his shoulder.
It's more than enough to fit a child our age.
However, this had not been verified after all, so he did not dare to answer rashly. Otherwise, if they were discovered to have made a mistake, not only would they not receive the reward, but they would also have to bear the anger of the nobles.
In that case, even if he survived the nobles, the three adult males would not let him off.
No matter how he looked at it, it was a terrifying outcome. He chose to shake his head.
" I know." The 'child' beside him answered.
Leo looked over in surprise.
The older woman looked back and forth between their faces.
She narrowed her eyes, and a cold gaze shot out from the slits of her eyes." Alright, you answer. But let me make it clear first, if you dare to lie to us…"
Under the cloak, a sharp sword was unsheathed and placed on the boy's neck.
"I will kill you immediately!"
Leo became nervous and thought,"'See, I told you to be careful…'
To his surprise, Jing Yu pushed the sword away from his neck. Then, he looked at the woman fearlessly with a smile.
"Before you answer, let's talk about the reward.”
The woman was originally surprised by his actions, but she was stunned when she heard him.
Among the three people she brought, the two shortest girls protested together.
"What is it? You're just a commoner, how dare you bargain with us!”
"Answer me quickly. If that child gets hurt tonight, I'll make you pay the price!”
Jing Yu sneered in response to their heated comments.
He looked at the two girls." Firstly, your attitude is not good. If you guys meet and say,'Little brother, our sister is missing. Can you help us look for her?' I'll definitely tell you immediately.”
He even acted like a brainless fan looking at his idol.
"Little…and that, that action!”
"Who would say that to you! He's just a commoner, how dare he…"
The two girls were furious.
Jing Yu was certain that they would not dare to attack him if they wanted to know the girl's whereabouts. He smiled faintly." Secondly, you're unlucky. I happen to be short of money, and you happen to be rich. How about it? If you pay, I'll bring you to find him. Or are you going to continue being headless chickens?”
He put on an attitude as if he was going to eat them up.
When had the two girls who had been pampered ever suffered such humiliation…and they were even commoners!
"Vanessa!" A blue-haired girl shouted.
The woman wielding the sword immediately swung it at Jing Yu.
Jing Yu could tell that she wasn't trying to take his life…She probably wanted to teach him a lesson and scare him.
However,'magic power to strengthen the body'. Jing Yu activated his sprite technique.
This was a type of application that Jing Yu had sensed when he had formed a contract with the elf. He could directly use magic power to allow his body to unleash power that ordinary people could not achieve.
He was strong and fast.
Well, it was quite similar to the magic power strengthening body in other worlds with magic power.
Then, he flicked his finger at the sword that he was completely unprepared for.
The sword that was slashing at him, intending to cut off some of his hair, immediately flew up.
"What?" The woman who almost lost her grip on the weapon exclaimed in shock.
When she finally managed to control the sword, she looked at Jing Yu in shock and immediately lowered her body to prevent Jing Yu from retaliating.
However, seeing that Jing Yu didn't make any unnecessary movements, he calmed down a little…He continued to stare at him while asking with doubt,"
"Miss Celia, I didn't pay much attention just now. Did he use a body strengthening spell?”
"…No, based on my perception, he didn't use it.”
The fourth cloaked man was shorter than Vanessa but taller than the other two girls. After saying that, she took off the hood that covered her face. A cute face of about ten years old with some baby fat was revealed.
