Chapter 2213 - 788: The Foes and Friends of the Black Rose

’Young Master’ slightly opened his mouth, only to feel the murderous glare around him from all directions.

Moreover, it was obvious that someone who liked to stir up trouble had quickly recorded it... namely Zhu Meili.

He suddenly felt a bit at a loss.

’Young Master’ didn’t care how many people wanted to cause him trouble; it was all part of his daily routine anyway.

Besides, he was in the Defense Battle!

His whole body was enhanced with health and endurance divine artifacts, and he had a self-healing buff... from the blessings of the Little Fairy Queen and the Lord of Dawn... A super defense battle!

Although his combat power wasn’t as strong as ’Perfect Bald’, Baldy still wouldn’t find it easy to take him down.

Moreover, apart from the ’Old Age Striking King’ who outlasted him, how many people could take him down in a one-on-one fight?

He was even less afraid of group fights.

Youth Journey of the Wenjian World was the largest family.

Although many might not heed his words, they would definitely show up for this fight.

So, ’Young Master’ didn’t mind that his mouth often got him into trouble... Even if, as a result, the Chosen of the Lord of Dawn praised his straightforwardness for embodying the spirit of Dawn, which made ’Young Master’ a bit subtly unhappy, he didn’t plan on changing his style just for this slight discomfort.

He played the game to have fun, after all.

Moreover, if he had to be all approachable and kind, then it wouldn’t be playing the game anymore; the game would be playing him.

’Young Master’ often exaggerated his chuunibyou teenager persona to reduce unnecessary trouble.

Over the years, he didn’t even know what he would look like if he got serious... Of course, this was in the game.

As long as he saw himself looking like a child, ’Young Master’ could automatically put on the hat of a chuunibyou teenager.

He had long accepted it and didn’t plan to change.

But although he didn’t mind being the target of criticism and being scolded behind his back, ’Young Master’ was very unsatisfied that the guy he really wanted to curse was left untouched.

And that guy was still trying to turn the tables on him!

’Young Master’ puffed up his cheeks and put his hands on his hips.

Just as he was about to spew more intense words, the ’Perfect Bald’ promptly stopped him: "Young Master, consider the other person’s character issue.

Zhu Meili is one who could still smile gracefully among the endless offspring of Night Butterflies, you can’t match his thick skin.

Don’t pit your weaknesses against others’ strengths; that’s basic common sense, right?

Snow Old Dog won’t let you start a battle before you’ve even started working in this new world.

Do you really think you can swallow that anger?"

’Perfect Bald’ knew ’Young Master’ very well, and of course, he knew Zhu Meili even better... Over the years, Proud Sky Alliance’s external communications were mostly handled by their Black Rose, not without reason.

The mouths of the Magic Cult people may be sharp, but they are few in number.

As for the other few families... The students, only a few managed to learn the essence of shameless and reckless speech.

They usually resorted to simile and satire to express their emotions.

But this... to an experienced veteran with a truly strong inner self who has been in the game for many years, it was useless.

The families in the Battle Field were the type that wouldn’t speak if they could fight... Moreover, with their reaction speed, it was questionable if they could reply even one sentence out of ten said by others.

Only their Black Rose was unmatched in this area... Even someone who was once considered a cultured person from Academy Star could learn many ingenious languages at a construction-like site.

It guaranteed that you could understand the dirty and obscene content without a single explicit word.

So, by looking at the various divisions of Proud Sky Alliance, it was clear... Most of the diplomacy was handled by Black Rose, with other families just sending a few ears as representatives.

After all, once there’s trouble that can’t escalate to formal battles and only involves verbal sparring and saliva battles, only people from Black Rose could verbally battle multitudes.

And the only adversary capable of facing Black Rose head-to-head back then was Zhu Meili and his underlings.

Although they usually left the field with harsh words, at least they could still leave such words, which was rare and avoided annihilation.

’Lu Huayu’ was inadequate; this guy only played dirty tricks, rarely facing opponents head-on.

Although Zhu Meili’s side bore more animosity, it was, in fact, Road Eunuch who caused the most losses.

After all, Proud Sky Alliance had several blockheads who didn’t use their brains and just liked to use their fists.

Even if they could recover their losses later, the bitter pills had to be swallowed by themselves at the time.

However, outwardly, everyone believed Zhu Meili to be their most hated opponent... and indeed, he was.

After all, the absolute opposition between interests and positions always came first.

’Lu Huayu’ might have had skills, but at most, he could only tear a piece of meat from Proud Sky Alliance.

But the glorious debut of the Last-Era Clan, which Zhu Meili assisted, would inevitably mean the complete downfall of Proud Sky Alliance.

Therefore, even the ’Young Master’, who once suffered greatly at the hands of the ’Road Eunuch’, his first reaction facing these two people was to take down Zhu Meili first.

The timely intervention of ’Perfect Bald’ was still effective... The ’Young Master’ just didn’t react immediately, Zhu Meili didn’t need him to be on edge anymore.

Although this guy is still sinister, toxic, and shameless... Hmm... It doesn’t seem right to say the damage caused isn’t significant.

It’s fair to say that Zhu Meili is now a threat on the ’Lu Huayu’ level.

Then the ’Young Master’ couldn’t help but look around: "Eh? Where’s Ink Brush?"

"Haven’t seen him?"

"Ink Brush should be somewhere in the middle section." ’Perfect Bald’ responded coolly, "He always has neither good nor bad luck."

The ’Young Master’ glanced at him lightly.

Originally, the Wenjian, especially his faction, had a rather decent relationship with Black Rose and Black and White Path.

Maybe a bit older, having worked for many years, ’Perfect Bald’, despite his bad temper, really helped them a lot in the past.

Especially Ink Brush.

Perhaps due to personality differences, though both played with lolitas and shotas, he and ’Perfect Bald’ weren’t the same type of person.

The Black Rose member the ’Young Master’ most often played with was ’Old Age Striking King’.

Sometimes, like-minded people gathering is not just an empty saying.

The ’Young Master’s consumption habits and working style, people like ’Perfect Bald’ who rely on themselves, really can’t relate.

Both have sharp tongues, but ’Perfect Bald’ would never casually shoot map cannon... He prefers to use the enemy’s anger for acclaim rather than provoke everyone.

The ’Young Master’ doesn’t care about anyone.

’Old Age Striking King’ is somewhere in between them.

Thus, Ink Brush is the one who received maximum care from Baldy.

However, back in Teraxil, despite their good relations then, now it’s turned into a slow-paced neither good nor bad.

The ’Young Master’ lightly turned to look at the distant ’Lu Huayu’... It’s this guy who’s slowly approaching Black Rose instead.

It’s not as if they can build profound friendship, that’s impossible.

A straightforward person like ’Perfect Bald’ naturally despises the sly villainous conduct like ’Lu Huayu’.

But, their two families in Toril have indeed become a bit closer.

Mainly due to Ambori.

The Goddess of the Sea perhaps remembers the Black Rose family too vividly, so her Shark-heads, besides the Last-Era Clan, only walk closely with the Black Rose people.

When conducting seafood trade, if Black Rose is nearby, these Shark-heads will seek them as intermediaries... Toril people wouldn’t dare deal with them directly.

Without the Undead Tribe’s guarantee, the first reaction fishermen and merchants have upon seeing those Shark-heads emerging is to panic and shout enemy attack.

But if the Undead Tribe is around, these Shark-heads can even come ashore.

These merchant ships actually rather like trading with this group of Shark-heads... For pearls.

Though Shark-heads aren’t very smart, their skill in finding Pearl Shells and even cultivating them is quite impressive.

The shells hanging on Ambori aren’t just there for show... She actually has a divinity related to this.

But she prefers destructive laws, thus discarded such productive aspects.

Yet, her Chosen still retains some innate abilities... Allowing them to cultivate some special marine products in reefs.

Perhaps influenced by Agleya, lately Ambori seems to be slowly reclaiming some past things.

This Toril world is really quite amusing... Ambori essentially abandoned those divinities for nearly a hundred thousand years, yet not a single deity emerged to contend with her over these things.

Just like that elusive Goddess of Agriculture.

Even though the society is highly developed and thriving, the basic agricultural and animal husbandry production almost stagnated at tens of thousands of years ago.

Anyway, due to Ambori’s Shark-heads’ performance, the awkward yet stiff atmosphere between Black Rose and Last-Era transformed somewhat into positive competition.

However, not all clans in Proud Sky Alliance have good relationships.

Some clans, apart from knowing management and clan leader, ordinary clan members may not even recognize clan’s badge.

In Toril, almost every clan member carries the clan badge... Especially those blessed by deities.

Thus, he’s well aware that at times, members of Black Rose and Last-Era might lend each other a hand... Even if the two clan leaders still engage in verbal skirmishes upon meeting.

The ’Young Master’ couldn’t help but glance at ’Perfect Bald’ again.

’Perfect Bald’ of course understands what the young master opposite is thinking.

But estimates the guy’s mind is not so clear... The ’Young Master’ and Josh upstairs indeed have something in common.
