In the sea, the ship that Davis and the other two were on had already been repaired. It floated on the surface of the sea, slowly moving toward its destination, the Belgravia Empire.
During this period of time, Davis had nothing to do but flip through ancient books, guide Emily in battle, return to the alternate dimension to accompany Little Jade, and after a period of time, he would use his doppelganger to return to Paradise Island to check on the situation.
Just like that, a monthâs time passed by in the blink of an eye.
Finally, at the end of the horizon, a continent slowly appeared.
This was the southernmost tip of the Belgravia Empire.
On the dock, ships slowly sailed into the port.
âMaster, are you really planning to leave after we settle down?â
There was a hint of reluctance in Emilyâs eyes.
Davis nodded.
According to Davisâ instructions, after Emily and Wharton found a new place to live in the Belgravia Empire, Davis would return to Paradise Island.
The current strength Davis had could not be considered powerful in the entire world.
Although he had all kinds of powerful skills and extremely noble bloodlines, Davisâ strength was only at level 9 lord angel and level 1 chaos demon king.
Whether it was Lucifer who was facing the twelve demon god pillars or the four seraphim on Paradise Island, Davis could not do much damage.
The reason was that Davis was too weak at the moment.
Once his identity as a demon and angel was exposed, he would become the target of everyone in the demon world.
At that time, it would even implicate Fiona.
The current Davis had to continue using the system to get stronger and stronger.
On this trip out of Paradise Island, Davis did not use the system to get anything good.
This was also why Davis was always a little depressed.
âBeep, beep!
âSystem notification, host has arrived at a new location, Belgravia Empire, Blue Flame City Pier.
âHost, do you wish to sign in?â
âSign in.â
âBeep, beep!â
âCongratulations, host, for obtaining the Mysterious Treasure Chest!â
The systemâs voice rang out in Davisâ mind.
Following which, a golden treasure chest with a question mark appeared in Davisâ system space.
Mysterious Treasure Chest, what was that?
Davis was puzzled. After all, Davis had never signed in for such a reward before.
However, just as Davis was about to open the Mysterious Treasure Chest, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from afar.
âMalfoy, youâre finally back.â
A group of soldiers rode their horses to the front of Davis and the othersâ ship.
The old captain saw this and quickly walked out.
As he walked, he subconsciously turned his head to look at the three people on the ship.
After traveling all the way, he had witnessed how terrifying the strengths of the three people on the ship were.
According to the old captainâs estimation, even platinum-level adventurers were not as strong as Davis and the others.
âLord Kroll, what can I do for you?â
The old captainâs name was Malfoy. At this moment, he was rubbing his hands and speaking to Kroll very respectfully.
âIf we have anything to ask, of course itâs the tax that you owe us.â
Kroll snorted coldly.
Malfoy said doubtfully, âLord Kroll, isnât the tax of our Blue Flame City paid according to the price of the goods every monthâ¦â
Kroll frowned.
âMalfoy, your news is really too old. The current steward of our Blue Flame City has already changed from the original City Lord of Kaluwatt to the City Lord of Myers.
âThese rules set by the City Lord of Kaluwatt have to be changed, of course.
âNow, the taxes of our Blue Flame City are calculated per head.
âYou, Captain Malfoy, according to the current rules, you already owe 500 silver coins in taxes.â
Kroll took out a scroll from his pocket and said slowly.
Five hundred silver coins?!
Malfoy was completely shocked!
One had to know that he could only earn a few gold coins in just a few months by going back and forth between Pompeii City and the Belgravia Empire.
One gold coin was equivalent to a hundred silver coins.
If he really paid the taxes according to what Kroll said, Malfoy would not even be able to pay the wages of the sailors on the ship.
Looking at Malfoyâs hesitation, Kroll could not help but frown.
âMalfoy, hurry up and hand over the taxes.
âItâs not that Iâm making things difficult for you. These are the rules that City Lord Myers has instructed. If you still want to continue living in Blue Flame City, then obediently hand over the money.â
How could Malfoy have so much money at this moment?
Right now, he only had a few dozen silver coins on him. Asking Malfoy to hand over five hundred silver coins all of a sudden was undoubtedly a foolâs dream.
Davis leaned against the deck and glanced at Malfoyâs current predicament. He shook his head helplessly.
âTake it, including our taxes.â
The fist-sized cloth bag was thrown in the direction of Kroll. Kroll took it.
Kroll opened it and saw that it was filled with heavy gold coins.
There were probably 20 of them!
It was equivalent to 2,000 silver coins!
Kroll swallowed his saliva and subconsciously looked at Davis in the distance.
A guy who could casually throw out 20 gold coins must have an extraordinary identity.
For a moment, Krollâs expression became more respectful.
âRespected sir, we will leave now.
âThe Blue Flame City guards will always be at your service.â
After saying that, Kroll quickly led everyone away.
âSir, thank you so much.
âAlong the way, you couldnât help but protect our safety. You even helped us out at this time. I really donât know how to thank you anymore.â
Behind them, the sailors all looked at them gratefully.
If Davis had not helped them out at this moment, they would have paid a lot of money to transport the goods.
If that was the case, they might not even be able to pay for their meals.
âLetâs go.
âOnce I help you find a suitable place, it will be time for me to leave.â
Davis said calmly.
Malfoy still had to repair the ship. After going through so much on the way, the keel of the ship had suffered a huge impact. Even if it had undergone major repairs at the repair factory, it was likely that it would not be able to make another long voyage.
However, Malfoy did not mind. After all, after this voyage, he no longer wanted to leave the continent.
The three of them walked toward the city gates of Blue Flame City.
Davis looked at the surrounding scenery and casually opened the extremely Mysterious Treasure Chest in the systemâs inventory.
