Vincent and Dave quietly looked at each other in the infirmary at the military camp. Neither one of them said anything, they were waiting for the other person to speak first.

Dave was defeated in the end. He retracted his gaze and turned his head to look elsewhere. He said in a low voice, “It seems that you are very talented in combat. You can foresee the results of high-level battles at a glance. As long as you continue to train hard, it is not impossible for you to become a top-notch expert!”

Vincent nodded. He smiled and responded, “Actually, it is also because the strength of the City Lord is too strong. Anyone with discerning eyes can see that he has been suppressing the mysterious Dark Elf the entire time. It can be said that he has the upper hand. It is already very fortunate that the mysterious Dark Elf has been able to hold on until now. The main reason is because of his Demon King’s Groan. I have to say that the three spells personally bestowed by Gajero are indeed powerful. Either one of them has the power to destroy the world. It’s a pity that they fell into someone else’s hands!”

Both of them were very careful with their words. They tacitly avoided mentioning what had happened. However, both of them knew that Dave would not let go of his suspicions so easily. On the other hand, Vincent would not reveal his background. Nevertheless, Dave decided to stop asking questions because he believed that Vincent would not betray him.

Even though his identity and background were still a mystery, and he was not actually a Dark Elf, Dave still believed that Vincent had his interests at heart.

Dave sighed and said softly, “After you recover from your injuries, help me find out who that mysterious Dark Elf was. He almost killed me today. You must avenge me! When the time comes, the Demon King’s Groan will belong to you!”

Vincent smiled bitterly and said, “Your Highness, I am only a level 25 creature! That mysterious Dark Elf’s strength is at least level 40 and above. Even if I manage to find his traces, I might not be able to kill him!”

Dave looked at Vincent and said in a relaxed tone and unconcerned manner, “You have to find him first before you decide whether you can kill him. Maybe there is a chance for you to kill him? I believe a miracle will happen!”

After hearing that, Vincent nodded and said, “Alright, leave the matter to me. I, too, believe that a miracle will happen!”

Vincent making a promise to him was similar to him admitting that he actually had the ability to kill the mysterious Dark Elf. However, Dave was not angry even though he felt like he was being deceived, he actually felt fortunate.

At that point in time, he really needed an expert by his side. An expert who could ensure his safety, help him take care of his opponent in the dark, and fight against his father at the critical moment!

If Vincent was the person that Dave thought he was, then he would be the expert that Dave was looking for!

Monica, who was standing next to Vincent, listened to the entire conversation between the two of them. It was as if the two of them had forgotten about her. However, at that moment, Monica wished that His Highness would ask her about Vincent. She clearly knew about Vincent’s background. At the same time, she had also seen Vincent’s strength.

The flame that he could control at his will, the power to change everything at will, and the ability that could cause the ninth floor to shake with just a single palm were sufficient proof of Vincent’s strength. His strength was considered one of the strongest even in the Dark Elves World.

However, Monica did not dare to reveal this information if Dave did not ask her about it. This was because she could tell that Dave trusted Vincent.

In the past, if Dave was ever suspicious of someone, he would think of ways to get rid of that person. Even though he had suspicions about Vincent, he still treated him as his confidant. He discussed everything with him and listened to his plans even when he almost lost his life. He did not show the slightest bit of anger.

Under such circumstances, if Monica took the initiative to expose Vincent’s identity, it would be unlikely to shake Vincent but instead, she might lose her life.

Vincent glanced over at Monica casually and instantly saw through her. He immediately pulled her into his arms and said casually, “Your Highness, we should return to the City Lord’s mansion earlier. You also have to show remorse, some anxiety as well as your concerns about the City Lord!”

He thought Vincent’s suggestions sounded like an order, so he stood up and said with a frown, “I’m not a child anymore. There’s no need to be so careful in such matters. I have more experience dealing with my father than you!”

Vincent nodded and said, “Also, it’s best not to bring that thing with you. You should be aware that the City Lord will search you if he is enraged!”

Dave immediately responded in a confident manner, “Don’t worry! I’ve already dealt with that thing long ago. It will definitely not be discovered! You’re injured. When you return to the City Lord’s mansion with me later, I’ll get someone to arrange a room for you. You should take a good rest. I can handle the rest of the matters myself!”

Vincent responded with a smile, “Since Your Highness is confident, then I won’t say anymore.”

At the same time, he turned his attention to Monica. He wanted to show off to her and let her know that even though he had given so many orders to Dave, Dave would still gladly accept them. Was there anyone else in the entire Devil Flame City who would also receive such treatment?

Monica was still being held tightly in Vincent’s arms. After seeing Vincent’s gaze, she had no choice but to rest her head on his shoulder.

This was what they had previously discussed and agreed upon. Monica had to pretend to be a woman from Vincent’s village in front of others. As there was no longer any hope to make a report against Vincent, she had no other choice but to accept her fate.

Dave noticed the interaction between Vincent and Monica. He could tell that it was something between a man and a woman, so he pretended to not see anything. He coughed lightly and said, “It’s almost time. Let’s go back to the City Lord’s mansion!”

Vincent stood up without any hesitation. He pulled Monica along with Dave and headed back to the gate of the City Lord’s mansion.

At that point in time, the atmosphere in the City Lord’s mansion was mournful. All the soldiers and servants were worried and afraid.

After seeing this, Dave could not help but let out a sigh, “Looks like Father has returned!”

Vincent immediately responded, “Then Your Highness should go over immediately!”

Dave nodded but he did not take immediate action. Instead, he raised his hand and beckoned a servant over. He told the servant, “This is Vincent, my distinguished guest. Prepare a room for him that is near to my room. The room must be quiet. He doesn’t like to be disturbed by others!”

The servant replied instantly, “Yes, Your Highness. I’ll do it right away!”

Dave then turned around and left with ease. Meanwhile, Vincent brought Monica along. They were led by the servant all the way to the easternmost courtyard wall of the City Lord’s mansion.

There was a separate courtyard there. Although it was not as grand and magnificent as the front of the City Lord’s mansion, it was still quite magnificent.

The servant said, “Since His Highness was born, this place has been opened up into a courtyard. It can be considered part of His Highness’s residence. In addition to the main hall and His Highness’s bedroom, there are also a few side halls and guest rooms. You can choose any guest room to stay in. All the rooms are ready for occupation. There is a special servant that cleans the rooms every day. You can rest assured!”

“Thank you!”

Vincent nodded and thanked the servant. After that, he brought Monica into Dave’s private courtyard and chose a guest room that was located in the corner. The room was considered the most remote guest room.

Although Monica was considered a high-ranking employee on the fifth floor of Hell’s Rose and was well taken care of by Lady Catherine, she still had to rely on herself in her daily life. Occasionally, she had to serve as Lady Catherine’s maid, hence, she knew how to be Vincent’s maid.

After Monica entered the room, she started cleaning up. She did not want to stop.

Vincent sat on the bed and looked at Monica who was constantly busy. He smiled and said, “Alright, there’s no need to rush to express yourself at this time. I can see that you wanted to take the initiative to snitch just now, but I have no intention of punishing you. After all, Dave has already guessed most of it. Whether you snitch or not is no longer important!”

After hearing that, Monica hurriedly threw away the tools in her hands and held her aching waist. She turned to Vincent and said, “Then why didn’t you say so earlier? I’m going to die from exhaustion!”

Vincent smiled and said, “Since you’re willing to torture yourself, I naturally don’t care!”

Monica stomped her feet in anger. She then walked forward and pushed Vincent on the bed.

Vincent turned his head to look at Monica on the bed and asked, “What are you doing?”

Monica buried her head in the quilt and said in anger, “I’m tired, I need to rest!”

Vincent shook his head helplessly, smiled, and reminded her, “I don’t have any objections if you want to lie down now, but you are my maid after all, so at night, I sleep on the bed, and you sleep on the ground!”

Monica turned over on the bed and looked at Vincent. She replied stubbornly, “Why should I follow you out and not even have a good sleep? I don’t care where you sleep, I want to sleep on the bed!”

After hearing that, Vincent could not help but threaten, “Then aren’t you afraid that I’ll eat you clean, pull up my pants, and refuse to admit it?”

Monica subconsciously curled up her body in a defensive manner. She said very coquettishly, “I’m not afraid! In any case, I can’t escape from your clutches now, so I might as well make my life more comfortable!”

Vincent nodded and said, “Very reasonable. You’re very resigned to your fate with this broken jar mentality!”

Monica looked at Vincent with a face full of anger. She thought that she had performed well enough. She even showed care toward Vincent in regard to everything. She deserved his trust and preferential treatment, but Vincent was like a demon. He was still bullying and threatening her.

At that moment, someone knocked on the door.

“Does Vincent live here?”

Vincent frowned and got up to open the door curiously. He saw a Dark Elf dressed as a soldier outside and could not help but ask, “I am Vincent. What do you want to see me about?”

The soldier said very succinctly, “The City Lord invites you!”

Vincent nodded and replied, “Alright, I’ll go and meet the City Lord now!”

Then, he closed the door and followed the soldier into the City Lord’s office hall.

In the City Lord’s office hall, there were only Andre and Dave standing there. Their expressions were very unsightly.

Vincent had just walked in and could not help but ask curiously, “City Lord, may I know why you have asked me to come here?”

Andre frowned and said with a very ugly expression, “Today, you came alone to report the news and saved my son in the alley. You have done a great deed. What kind of reward do you want?”

Vincent raised his head in confusion and looked at Andre, who had a strange attitude. He then turned to look at Dave.

Dave’s expression was even uglier. His extremely gloomy face seemed to be dripping with water.

Vincent turned his head and said to Andre, “I am the personal guard of His Highness. Protecting His Highness is my duty. I don’t need any rewards!”

However, Andre did not pay any heed to Vincent’s refusal. He said, “Currently, the position of City Patrol Officer in Devil Flame City is still vacant. I think that you will definitely be able to do it. You will not waste my trust in you! This is my son’s highly recommended position.”

“Ah, this…”

Vincent looked at Andre with a blank expression. He then turned his head to look at Dave. He did not know what was going on.

Speaking of which, this official position should have been given to Dave by Andre. How could it be offered to Vincent?

However, at that moment, it was not only Vincent who could not figure it out, even Dave who was sitting in the hall could not figure it out. Ever since he walked into the hall, everything he said to his father was within Vincent’s expectations, it was only when he finally promised him a position that a deviation suddenly appeared.

According to Dave’s thoughts, the position of the City Patrol Officer was neither too big nor too small. It corresponded to the position of young elder David. Since his father wanted to give up this position, it meant that he wanted to train someone who could deal with David.

However, this person was not Dave. Instead, he chose Vincent, who was closest to him. This made Dave very unhappy. He even began to doubt whether he was actually Andre’s biological son.

Why was it that other people’s children could receive the utmost love from their father? It was as if it was an extravagant hope for him to receive even the slightest bit of recognition from his father.

As the saying goes, there is no greater sorrow than to recall happiness in times of misery. At that moment, Dave was completely disappointed with his father. He immediately said, “Vincent, since father thinks so highly of you, then you should accept this official position. Currently, there is really no one more suitable than you!”

After hearing this, Vincent could only turn his head and say to Andre, “I will definitely not let the City Lord down!”

Andre nodded and said, “Then you can prepare to take up your post immediately. According to the system of my Devil Flame City, the City Patrol can have 300 soldiers. They can be considered as your own private army! In addition, if there is an emergency, you can mobilize troops from all the military camps in the city. However, you absolutely cannot deploy them for your own use. Do you understand?”

Vincent nodded and said, “I understand!”

Andre then waved his hand and said, “Go! You can directly go to any military camp to transfer 300 soldiers. After that, start patrolling Devil Flame City and the surrounding areas. You must find the mysterious Dark Elf who took away the Elf King’s remains!”

“At the same time, you must also pay attention to David’s movements. He has been a little too popular recently, and my son’s injury has a lot to do with him. If there is a chance, you can secretly handle it. As long as no one is killed, you can do it!”

Vincent nodded blankly and replied, “Yes, yes! Your subordinate will do it right away!”

Dave immediately stood up and said, “Father, then I’ll go back too!”

Andre smiled slightly and said meaningfully, “Alright, all of you can go now!”

Vincent and Dave walked out of the hall together, not knowing where to go for a moment.

Should they return to Dave’s residence, or head to the military camp to gather troops? Or should they head to the fifth floor of Hell’s Rose? No matter where they chose, it would be difficult to calm the unwillingness in Dave’s heart.

Suddenly, Dave pulled Vincent and said, “Let’s go! Come walk around the city wall with me!”

Vincent nodded and accompanied Dave to climb up the city wall where they had chatted the day before.

Dave looked at the Tias Mountains in the distance and sighed softly, “Vincent, you are now the City Patrol Officer of Devil Flame City. As long as you take a step further, you can become my father’s confidant. Are you still willing to stay by my side in the future? Compared to my father, what I can give you is really too little!”

Vincent smiled slightly and unfastened the Return Journey of the Dead by his waist. He leaned on the ground and looked ahead. He replied calmly, “No matter what, I will always be His Highness’s personal bodyguard. When I become a City Patrol Officer, it will be no different from when His Highness becomes a City Patrol Officer. As for what the City Lord can give me, I believe that when His Highness becomes the City Lord, he can also give it to me!”

Dave turned to look at Vincent and said with great gratitude, “Good! After hearing that, I am relieved, but now I need you to do something for me!”

Vincent turned to look at Dave and asked, “Your Highness wants me to help you kill David?”

Dave shook his head.

Vincent asked again, “Then Your Highness wants me to help you kill the City Lord? I can’t do that!”

Dave said softly, “I don’t need you to help me kill anyone. There are some things that I have to do myself. I want you to help me become stronger. Right now, only by becoming stronger can I let everyone see my existence. Only by becoming stronger can I make father regret his decision today!”

Vincent was slightly stunned, and then asked, “Then what does your highness want to learn?”

Dave raised his hand and pointed at the Return Journey of the Dead wrapped in coarse cloth in Vincent’s hand. He said, “I believe that the staff in your hand should not be a magic staff, right? However, for you to carry it, this means that it is definitely one of your powerful skills. Can I learn it too?”

Vincent nodded and said, “Of course, but I need to find a suitable weapon for His Highness first!”

“Oh? Where do I find one?” asked Dave curiously.

Vincent thought for a moment. He raised his hand and pointed at the Tias mountain range in front of him. He said, “There are often many treasures in the mountain range. I want to go there and try my luck. Maybe I can find a divine weapon for His Highness!”

Dave looked at Vincent thoughtfully. It was as if he had guessed Vincent’s true purpose in going to the Tias mountain range. After hesitating for a long time, he sighed softly, “You are now a City Patrol Officer. Since you are going to the Tias mountain range, then bring your men. You must remember to go early and come back early. I won’t be going to Hell’s Rose for a while. I will wait for you in the City Lord’s mansion!”

Vincent nodded and said, “Okay, then I’ll definitely go and come back quickly!”

After saying that, Vincent turned around and walked down the city tower. He headed to the nearest military camp and recruited 300 soldiers as his personal soldiers. He walked out of Devil Flame City and headed straight for the Tias Mountains.
