Chapter 5: Bloody Sword Sect. Who is Alexa's boyfriend?

Humans are creatures that love rumors and talk sh*t about people. Wherever Max moves, he can hear people talking about Alexa's boyfriend. Or Alexa and her gang have killed the bartender.

The morning had just begun, and most people had not yet woken up, but the buzz of rumors was already big.

“Well, as we can see, to bring the transformation ingredients, I will need a small army of at least 30 people to fight the ghoul. The ghoul is not an easy creature; this is really a problem. But everything has a solution.”

Indeed, the one-eyed blue ghoul is a very powerful monster. It is easy to defeat him if you are a wizard or a witch, but as an ordinary human, winning against the ghoul is only a dream.

"As for the lion's eye, it can be obtained easily."

“Blue Goblin Tail, I can hunt the Blue Goblin on my own.”

“But the blood of a virgin girl who deflowered during the transformation, that is a problem. My plan now is to use the Green Plant Gang to fight the ghoul. The problem is that the sacrifice I am thinking of is their leader’s daughter.”

“Thinking about using potions to control them all would be pure fantasy. The Green Plant Gang has great power. Although they do not use magic, they can use some expensive magic tools to defend against the cheap sorcery I used.”

“I'll be lucky if Alexa's father doesn't doubt that she's under control, of course not to that level, but it's a small chance.”

“But if I used it a lot and the leader discovered that something was not right, I would be in trouble.”

"Now on to the hunt."

Now some time has passed, and noon has arrived. Max hunted a huge lion and a blue goblin.

But the Blue Goblin was not as easy as he thought; the Blue Goblins were different from the normal, stupid green Goblins.

The Blue Goblin is a very smart creature, makes high-quality traps, and hides very quickly.

Catching the lion was very easy, but the goblin was what made him lose all this time from morning to noon.

He is now heading towards the butcher as usual, and of course, he plucked out the eye he needed from the lion.

As for the goblin, he put it in the system storage. Haha, exactly who? Is going to eat a disgusting goblin?

The Blue Goblin has another place that will be sold for a high price.

Now Max heads to the butcher. The lion sold for 95 coins, with a joke or two from the butcher about him being a great hunter.

According to the system, what Max currently has is:

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

[7 silver = 70,344 coins]

[His house, which is worth 60 copper = 6,000 coins]

[A bar worth 2.5 silver = 25,000 coins]

This is taking into account that the consumption of a family in this village of 4 people is 6 coppers, or 600 coins, per year.

Now he is going to sell the second prey that he has, and its price must, of course, be more expensive.

He headed towards one of the three big clans of the village, the Blood Sword Sect, and when he reached the entrance, the guard stopped him.

"Who are you, and what do you do here?"

“Hello, Mister Great wizard, I am Maxwell, and I have brought the corpse of a blue goblin to sell. I have already had some dealings with the deacons here.”

"Hmm, wait a minute; I'll be back soon."

'This is what I'm missing today: a new stupid guard who doesn't even know about the hunters who sell bodies here.'

After a little anger, his face changed to a gentle smile after the guard returned.

"You may come in. The deacon is waiting for you in the storeroom over there."

"Thank you for your directions." 'As if I've never done a transaction here before, I know exactly where the storeroom is.'

With a slight sigh, he continued on his way, carrying the bag with him. Of course, he would carry a bag with the Blue Goblin with him; he couldn't keep it in the system's storage. He would scare them, and they would think that he had a spatial ring in his hands, and they would try to steal him and perhaps kill him.

After heading to the storeroom near the gate, which cannot be considered the main storage because it is in front of the gate,

“Hello Max, it looks like you brought new merchandise,” the deacon known as Edward greeted him.

"Hello, Mr. Edward, I'm lucky to have found you today."

“Hahaha, sweet tongue as always, Max, so what do you have today?”

“I have a blue goblin; I think it's one of your basic needs.”

“The blue Goblin, hmm, we can't really make potions with it or do anything with it, but my magical beast likes to eat it, and it adds a lot of energy to it, so I will buy it from you myself and not on behalf of the sect.”

“Oh, would it be so lucky if Sir Edward bought from me himself? It would be an honor.”

"I'll give you 5 coppers for it."

"Deal"

[7 silver = 70,844 coins]

"Now that's enough; I need to see Alexa and meet her father. This should work for partial control of the gang and fighting the ghouls."

“You mean Alexa has a boyfriend?”

"Yes, sir."

"Who is Alexa's boyfriend?"

"His name is Maxwell. He has no last name. His parents died when he was 3 years old as a result of an accident. Although he was only three years old and his neighbors wanted to take him in and adopt him, he did not want to do that and stayed in his house, only living off some food that the neighbors sent him. And some of the money he earned from making some strange things. As soon as he was ten years old, he started hunting animals as his work, but because of his young age, he only hunted small animals, such as rabbits and so on. Some of them he sold to the butcher, who was the person who cared the most and protected him the most, and some he took for himself. For food, after the age of fourteen, he began hunting large and powerful non-magical monsters. At the age of sixteen, he participated in a magic test but failed. At the age of seventeen, he began hunting some magical creatures that were weak but too powerful for ordinary humans, and since those creatures cannot be sold to ordinary humans, he had some contact with the deacons of the Blood Sword Sect to sell those creatures. At the age of 20, he had his last magic test and failed it, and now he is 21 years old. By some calculations of what he has hunted for these years and the way he lives and consumes, it seems to me that he should not have less than five silver; that is, he is considered one of the rich people in the village without trade; he can be considered an excellent person, better than those boys from rich families who rely only on their family, sir.”

“Hmm, but before I ask anything else, something is puzzling me.”

“What confuses you, sir?”

“When did this young man meet my daughter, and if he met him before, why did I not hear about him in your reports?”

“Through the observers we put in place to monitor, no meeting between them was found.”

"This means they have secret meetings."

“Apparently, sir, that is the case.”

"Although, from what you said, he seems strong and has a good plan for his life, he seems to be a very ambitious person since he has such a large amount of money.”

"Yes sir"

"And I was not thinking about marrying my daughter to someone from a strong family in this village. Rather, I was thinking about marrying her to a wizard. But the problem is that wizards and witches only accept people who are as good as themselves, and Alexa has already missed two chances in the magic tests, and now she only has two chances left."

"So what's the matter, sir?"

“I'll leave her alone; she can choose to do whatever she wants; I won't stand in her way if that's what she likes; if I could find a way to bring her together with a wizard, I would have; and I don't want to lower my head to the sons of bitches any longer,” Zara said with angry red eyes.

“That is very wise of you, sir.”

“Bring me Maxwell; I want to know what his personality is like.”

“Listen and obey, sir.”

“Maxwell huh...” zara mumbled

“Now, I remember what happened yesterday; I was controlled.” Alexa looks into the mirror, observing her beautiful pale face and her golden hair that cascades down her back.

“How exactly did this happen? I can't even tell anyone that I'm under someone's control.”

___________

"Mr. Maxwell, my name is Tori, and I am the butler of Mr. Zara's house, your girlfriend's father." A tall, slim person with neat black hair and standard butler clothes with glasses similar to the looks of a certain butler in a certain anime called One Piece.

'Damn, he looks so much like him; is he going to take out his sword gloves and start slaughtering everyone?'

“Hmm, what does the butler want from this humble person?”

"Mr. Zara wants to meet you."

"Well, doesn't that sound fun? buhahahahahahaha"
