I Rely on Drawing Cards to Set Up a Persona

special innate skills.

“The town is a bit of a distance from the manor.
We may not be able to make it back on foot this night, but with Rhett’s help, it will be faster.”

After hearing his name, Rhett gave a low howl and raised his head high, looking very proud of himself.

It’s super cool to have such a handsome magical beast as a mount!

Qiao Xingnan hid his inner excitement.
He glanced at Rhett, seemed to be accustomed to it, and got on the carriage with a normal expression.
Behind him was Zero, who still had a white hood covering his face and a sense of mystery, following after Qiao Xingnan.

Rhett ran steadily all the way, and through the carriage windows, they could see the forest and the flowing streams they passed.

“I wonder what kind of mount your Excellency prefers for transportation? Next time, I can help you arrange it in advance.” Ilir asked casually, seemingly unintentional.

If you are an ordinary civilian, even if you know the types of magical beasts, you will know only a few, and most of them are unsuitable for transportation.
Compared to transportation, they are more suitable for food or refining materials.

If you want to know whether the magical beast is suitable for transportation, you have to take a professional class on magical beasts or have been on the battlefield with magical beasts to know.

“Transportation?” The black-haired man’s eyebrows loosened, seemingly attracted by his offer, “In the past days, I would take a dragon as a substitute for walking, traveling 10,000 miles in a day, going anywhere.”

The smile on Ilir’s lips froze, “Your Excellency, dragons do not belong to magical beasts.
They are a foreign race and have been out of the world for a long time.”

It should be said that most people acquiesce to the fact that dragons are extinct.

The black-haired man had a ‘so what’ look on his face, “In my territory, foreign races are also my people, and they serve the royal family with honor.
Is there a problem with that?”

Seeing that Ilir could not provide a “dragon” mount, the dark-haired man was instantly disinterested.

Coincidentally, Ilir wasn’t very keen on talking to the liar now, and he turned his head to look at the strong man he had been wary of.

Although Qiao Xingnan also wrapped Zero with spiritual threads to control him, he wouldn’t restrict Zero’s curiosity to the outside and was considerate enough not to control his head, allowing him to look anywhere he wanted.

Zero had nothing to look at and just wanted to look at his master quietly, but at this time, his “friend-to-be” was looking at him.
In order to show his courtesy, he needed to slowly move his head to look at the other side.

Unfortunately, this move was a little difficult for Zero, so it was not very obvious and was equivalent to not moving.

So, in Ilir’s eyes, this strong man has been staring at the “emperor” he spoke of.

Regardless of whether it was true or not, the white-robed man carried out the duties of a knight to the fullest, and Ilir couldn’t help but admire this man somehow.

Soon, Rhett, the dog, brought the group to the town nearest to the manor.
“It’s not exactly a prosperous place, but many of the things there are unique to Arilance.” Ilir introduced and led the few people to walk in.

The small town with white bricks and red tiles looked clean, and the street fronts were selling all sorts of things.
Workers came and went through the crowd, and the merchants in the town occasionally shouted to get customers, making it look lively.

Most stores in the town were selling herbs and magical beast meat or sharp weapons made of magical beast horns, sharp claws, etc.

Qiao Xingnan calmly walked without any hurry.
Nothing on the side of the street would make him stop.
He just swept a glance and continued to walk forward as if, in his opinion, there was little value in these precious existences in the eyes of civilians.

But in fact, he murmured in his heart.
This one sells the meat of magical beasts, pass, pottery? I don’t know how to heat ah, pass.
Iron refining also requires skill.
Why are they all so difficult?

While thinking about this, Qiao Xingnan followed the original plan to pay attention to pedestrian traffic.
He needed to find some people to quickly “launder” their gemstones into gold coins.

Especially after looking at so many stores, Qiao Xingnan deeply felt that he could only do hard labor here.
Therefore, to successfully “launder” money, he looked for people more seriously.

Qiao Xingnan walked slowly, searching for the right person.
Suddenly, he saw two figures, one large and one small, in the alley.
He stopped at his feet and, under Ilir’s puzzled eyes, looked at the store on the side as if unintentionally and walked in.

“Is your Excellency interested in these things?”

Ilir looked at the things laid out on top of this store with an inexplicable expression.
How could this person like these things?

His eyes fell on the store filled with the eyes, claws, and hearts of magical beasts.

Not all magical beasts are good, and some are hostile to humans.
This store mainly sells various parts of magical beasts that can be used.

But these have not been processed, so this person should not be able to use them.

Qiao Xingnan seemed to be looking at it with great interest and incidentally sighed in surprise to Zero beside him: “So magical beasts will also have gray eyes.”

From the man’s surprised gaze, anyone could tell that this was the first time he had seen a magical beast with gray eyes.

Gray was the color of the pupil that only the lowest level of magical beasts would have.

The magical beasts around a noble emperor are also the most noble, and magical beasts of lower bloodlines do not deserve to appear in the other’s eyes.

Ilir seemed to understand that he came to see because he had never seen such a low-level magical beast.
However, he wondered whether it was real or fake that he hadn’t seen one.

And in fact, Qiao Xingnan indeed has not seen a low-level magical beast’s gray eyes.
To be precise, he has never seen what the eyes of all magical beasts look like.
He deliberately said this to brush up his persona and wait for a suitable time.

The white-robed man seemed to know that his emperor did not need his answer and quietly followed behind the other side like a shadow.

The shopkeeper on the side rubbed his hands, looked shyly at the few people, and carefully asked: “Noble lords, does this small store have anything that suits your liking?”

These people looked like rich nobles.
If they fancy anything, he could afford to open and eat for half a year!

Ilir silently cast his eyes towards Qiao Xingnan, the level of magical beasts here was too low to be of much use to him.

Then, he realized that this one’s attention had long been off these things.

Ilir frowned and followed the other man’s line of sight over to the street where people were coming and going, and there was nothing to attract him.

“Zero.” A clear, cold voice came from the dark-haired man.

“”

A white shadow flashed and appeared in front of Ilir the next second.
He saw the white-robed man pull out a large red gemstone and hand it to him.

“The emperor said, exchange.”

Exchange, what exchange?

Ilir didn’t quite understand what was meant.
