The more they oppose, the more it shows that I am doing the right thing

"Good job!" An Su applauded encouragingly, his eyes filled with admiration as he looked at Lister. That's the scope of their border people, "Let's see what he does next."

Lister smiled humbly, indicating that this was just a basic move for him.

"Your buddy Arthur also only had a week," Merlin said slowly, never having seen such a strange creature before.

"One week is really too short."

Lister's mouth cracked into an icy smile, and he replied politely to His Excellency Merlin, "Please fill me up!"

"...," At the other end of the Magic Communication, Merlin fell silent, never having encountered such an odd creature before.

"Your buddy Arthur also only had a week," he finally said slowly after a while.
Your journey continues at My Virtual Library Empire

Merlin wondered if two weeks would be too severe.

It wasn't that he was unwilling to act, but rather he was concerned that his actions might reach the criteria for sentencing. The Order Church's "Minor Saint Protection Law" and the Druid Court's "Rare Animal Protection Act" might come knocking on his door for vengeance. After all, beasts are animals, and this border breed like Lister would be considered rare even among beasts.

Lister enjoyed the protection of both laws, and when combined, it amounted to the legendary "Protection Law for Minors at Birth," which was indeed very powerful.

"Arthur is Arthur, and I am I," Lister said proudly, pushing up his glasses, "Not to hide anything, this perfect plan was initially conceived and proposed by me."

Lister's every move exuded the confidence and elegance of a noble. Faced with a reward from His Excellency Merlin, he decided to showcase his exceptional social skills to secure more benefits and advantages, as sophisticated social networking was a forte of the Moon Family.

As the legitimate eldest son of the Moon Family, he could not let them down.

"So you were the mastermind, correct?" Merlin massaged his temples, speaking coldly.

"I am indeed the main planner," Lister worried about His Excellency Merlin's level of comprehension, as "buddy" was misunderstood as "accomplice" and "main planner" as "mastermind." As a bishop of the Radiant Holy See, his intellectual quality and moral cultivation…

Merlin fell into a long, long silence.

He even began to question his life.

He had thought that the previous Arthur was arrogant enough, but Lister seemed to defy the heavens to an extreme.

He realized he had greatly underestimated these border-born individuals; each one of them was ferocious!

"How many more days do you want?" Merlin was on the verge of laughter from exasperation.

Lister noticed Merlin was still somewhat reluctant, what a miser. He promptly stated, "Your Excellency Merlin, I can offer you a reason you cannot refuse."

Lister chuckled lightly. His father had once taught him that to gain more benefits, one must first show more value. He was well-versed in the ways of noble social networking.

He spoke out loud, his words as impactful as a thunderclap, leaving both An Su and Merlin stunned.

"If you're tired of Miss Miejue, with the connections of the Moon Family, I can introduce you to many handsome and strong men!"

"The types are all varied, guaranteed to satisfy you," Lister said with confidence.

What the hell kind of crime is this declaration...

Merlin was shocked. One Rada wasn't enough, and now this guy wanted to introduce him to other strong men?

These border-born folks were nothing but lawless desperados!

Seeing His Excellency Merlin falling into a lengthy silence, Lister again displayed a confident smile; he knew his strategy was successful. His Excellency Merlin was speechless with excitement, embarrassed.

Haha, after all, men understand men.

Let's use a high EQ response to warm Merlin's entire day.

"Your Excellency Merlin, there's no need to be shy, I respect your interests," Lister said politely and understandingly, his words filled with the warmth of high EQ, "After all, everyone's orientation is free."

Merlin: "..."

"If I can make such a contribution for you, how many days do you think you should reward me?" Lister asked politely.

You dare to provoke me...?

Merlin, a scourge of the world for a century, had never seen anyone so brazenly audacious, more reckless than himself in his younger years. This kid didn't seem the slightest bit afraid; in fact, he was downright pleased and proud.

Relying on the "Protection Law for Minors at Birth," he dared to be so bold.

A mere Third Order saint daring to challenge a demigod— even the lunatics of the Mysticism of Chaos aren't as gutsy as this one!

Spread the word, and it would be enough to make Lister famous in the Church Nation.

The only bolder act Merlin could think of would be to conduct a sacrifice right in the heart of the Church's headquarters...

Thankfully, no one dared to do such a thing.

"You get a month."

Merlin said coldly, his tone filled with the domineering air of a demigod.

Since it was this little punk challenging him, even the Rare Animal Protection Law wouldn't save him. He was Merlin Andre, the Holder of Heaven, the Vice-President of the Magic Association, essentially a server administrator.

Having offended a server administrator, this kid had hit a steel plate.

Merlin was looking forward to seeing the kid's remorse and pleas for mercy, then coldly saying, "It's too late for regrets now," followed by reveling in his despair. Just fantasizing about it made him feel refreshed.

Who would have thought that upon hearing Merlin's generous offer, Lister was overjoyed, his voice brimming with happiness, "Then it's a deal, you mustn't go back on your word."

"...."

That's my line!

Don't turn the Steelyard against its master!

Merlin hung up the Magic Communication; another half a minute of this guy's nonsense, and he'd have a cerebral hemorrhage from anger!
