Chapter 9 The Fat Man in Front of the Inn
What's the most important thing about living in a new place?
It’s the intersection of building a foundation with the locals.

Coming to a strange place, Mu Hua also needs connections, but he has no entry point for the time being.

But you see, he is trying to make friends with a young man who has come to him.

The local thugs, especially those who are addicted to magic.

Such people are usually hated by everyone and no one would be surprised if they died on the roadside one day. However, such people are usually well-informed.

"No, you can't do this. Hey, brother, I apologize. This is the territory of the Vito family. There are garrisons, guards, and adventurer's guilds in the town. You shouldn't use a gun casually."

The young man froze, and because of the impact of the gun barrel, he raised his head and dared not resist.

"Bang, bang!" The young man's forehead was hit twice by the gun handle again. He fell to the ground unconsciously, and bright red blood instantly flowed out.

Squatting on the ground, with the gun barrel poking into the young man's mouth, ignoring the fear in the young man's eyes, Mu Hua's fingers rubbed the outside of the trigger from time to time.

The Vito family? They probably have nothing to do with the chaebol aristocracy. They are probably a gang here.

"Are you from a gang? The smell on you is really disgusting. What kind of crap do you eat, you bastard?"

"I'm a potion master. The degraded magic potion I prepare can give you a whole day of climax. I like making friends."

"See, I think we can become very good friends."

"Don't worry, I'm a serious person. Do you know Dandelion Inn? That's my hotel."

"By the way, can you tell me how to get to the Dandelion Inn? You should come find me there later. Maybe I can give you some high-end stuff. We are friends, right?"

Mu Hua kept talking to the young man in a somewhat neurotic manner.

"Woo~ Woo~" The young man whimpered with the gun barrel in his mouth. After seeing that the young man had a begging expression on his face, Mu Hua belatedly pulled the gun barrel out of the young man's mouth.

"Oh, sorry, I just came here. You know, a new environment always makes people nervous." Mu Hua said apologetically.

Degraded magic potion, a failed alchemical product, with an effect similar to 'washing powder'.

It is highly addictive and can cause addiction after taking too much. It is also a banned item on the relatively open planet Loren.

"Cough... cough..." The young man coughed dryly. Perhaps he would dare to act like a rogue even if he met a demon hunter, but facing someone like Mu Hua, the young man knew how to restrain himself.

"Dandelion Inn? No, there is no Dandelion Inn in this town." The young man didn't dare to think about Mu Hua's so-called degraded magic potion. He didn't like to get along with such a thug. After thinking for a while, he denied it.

"Hmm?" Mu Hua frowned.

"Oh, yes, the De Man Hotel. That hotel seems to have a dandelion logo."

"The sign there was taken down a few days ago, and we thought it was because there was no business. Business there is indeed not very good."

"Follow the main road, at the third intersection, you can see it after passing through a large maple forest." Seeing Mu Hua frowning even deeper, the young man raised his voice slightly in nervousness.

"Well, thank you. What's your name?" Mu Hua nodded.

"JJ."

"Look, JJ, we are friends now, aren't we? We may have more contact. Like I said, I need friends. I think you need them too?" Looking at the young man again, Mu Hua asked in an affirmative tone.

"Cousin, what are you doing?" A gentle female voice came, and Helen appeared behind Mu Hua without him noticing.

He was dressed as a maid, with silver hair. Although his pupils were not vertical at this time, the fear on the young man's face was obviously more serious.

"Of course I'm asking for directions." Mu Hua patted JJ's shoulder, put away his weapon, and stood up.

Helen looked at JJ, frowned, and looked again at Mu Hua's hand that was patting JJ, with a hint of disgust on her face.

Ignoring JJ who was curled up on the ground, Helen walked around JJ and the two of them continued along the road.

"My dear cousin, you shouldn't have contact with such people." After walking a paragraph, Helen said to Mu Hua.

"I'm not familiar with this place. You should know that I'm not good at frontal combat. To complete the tasks assigned by Samantha, I may need to use them." Mu Hua shook his head and explained.

"..." Helen was puzzled.

"Do what Samantha told you to do? What did Samantha tell you to do? Do you need this kind of thug to get along with Tabitha?"

"My dear cousin, what the young lady wants is a demon hunting team, and she needs members with extraordinary potential. These street gangs can only bully the residents. There may be some supporting forces behind them, but they are of no use to us." Helen frowned and said.

"Hmm? Oh, I understand." Mu Hua looked at Helen in surprise, looked around, and suddenly realized. 'Tsk~, should I be so cautious?' Mu Hua thought to himself, nodded and said no more.

Helen doesn't talk much and she feels there is some communication barrier between her and Mu Hua.

However, Helen attributed this situation to the different cultural customs of the two planets. Since Mu Hua said he understood, Helen did not say anything more.

Although she also didn't understand what Mu Hua understood?
Helen knew that Samantha valued Mu Hua very much, and she also showed great respect to Mu Hua.

After walking for a while, Mu Hua suddenly remembered that Samantha gave him a lot of things, but it seemed that she didn't give him any money.

He glanced at Helen and thought, forget it, maybe it’s some restriction of family experience?

It is a rare new life and new environment. It is impossible to prepare degraded magic potions because the impact is too bad.

I have already given him a hotel. I wonder if Spring College will pay him a salary? Maybe he can sell one or two of those magic cores?

A high-level magic core. How many demon gold coins can it sell for?

Thinking about all sorts of things, Mu Hua followed Helen through a forest path.

The road is flat, scattered with fallen leaves, and shaded by trees on both sides, just like walking into a natural park.

After walking on the fallen leaves for a while, an open space appeared in front of us. A three-story building in the forest looked like a secluded palace. A hotel? It covered an area of ​​at least 4,000 to 5,000 square meters. It seemed to be a large hotel.

The overall exterior of the hotel is in the shape of a pentagram. From a distance, Mu Hua almost thought he had seen the Pentagon.

After walking through an open area, about forty or fifty meters away from the hotel, Mu Hua looked up in front of the main entrance. This place was completely different from the country hotel he had imagined.

Perhaps because it was too big, the expectations were excessively different, and Mu Hua couldn't find any sense of belonging here at all.

Although it has only three floors, due to its high height, this angular building looks like a villa of monotonous specifications when viewed from one direction alone. The balconies on the second floor seem to indicate that it can accommodate more guest rooms.

The building as a whole gives people a heavy and solid feeling, and the walls are covered with green vines, making it difficult to distinguish the building materials.

"Buzz~" With a slight buzzing sound, a magic circle rose from the ground.

A solidified cleaning array with a large range was set up in front of the main entrance of the hotel.

The dust that Mu Hua had accumulated along the way was filtered out by the magic circle, and his new and clean clothes and even his body felt refreshed.

"Tsk, magic is about destruction, its purpose is killing, and it pursues ultimate power. It's a life system? Tsk..." Mu Hua curled his lips. He had his own understanding of magic.

Mu Hua despised this kind of irrelevant magic.

Of course, this perception might be largely because he couldn't even use this kind of life-related magic.

"My dear cousin, I think the devil would like your understanding." Helen agreed.

No matter whether it is right or not, at least Mu Hua’s cognition is helpful for him to communicate with the devil.

Helen also hopes that Mu Hua can successfully sign a contract with the devil, and then kill the devil, so that she can return to Samantha.

"Hi, Helen." A fat middle-aged white man in his forties, wearing a floral shirt, big pants, and a pair of leather sandals, saw Mu Hua and the other man coming. The fat man stood at the door of the hotel and greeted Helen from a distance.

Helen nodded to the fat man and took a half step back to make way for Mu Hua.

"Deman, Deman Benson. I was originally the head of this inn. I once wanted to make this the best Dandelion Inn. From now on, I will help you manage this place. You are welcome to come."

"Master Mu Hua, this place is yours."

Facing Mu Hua, the middle-aged fat man had a complicated expression, and his respectful tone had a slightly strange accent.

The scale of the hotel in front of me is not small, so there should be quite a few service staff.

Mu Hua saw that the fat man came to greet him, but he was alone and his opening remarks were still ambiguous.

What's this fat guy up to? At least the affairs of this hotel are under our control, right? Is Loren so unbridled in treating his leaders?
