Evil Dragon: The young dragon I picked up keeps planning on becoming an empress

Chapter 166: The Greedy Official Turns Out to Be Me?_3



Louis's face turned red, but he managed not to blurt out "You will become a corrupt official who is eventually executed by the King".

The young master in front of him clearly wasn't that corrupt official from the future yet.

If he had said it, it would have been like revealing the young master's future destiny in advance.

"Because you're not cut out to be an official."

"Too late, I'm already an official, the peace officer of the Eternity capital of the Ande Kingdom, in charge of the capital's security."

You're new to the Eternity capital, you don't speak the language, and if you want to make a living... you still need to get a temporary ID card. Even with a temporary ID card, you won't be able to find suitable work right away. Considering you keep saying "young master"...

I'm giving you a chance, to be my subordinates, to maintain the peace in the Eternity capital and to apprehend those who disturb the peace and commit crimes.

The trial period comes without pay, but food and lodging are included."

"???"

The members of the Bronze Bounty Guild glanced at one another...

No salary during the trial period...

Tsk...

That familiar air about the young master suddenly made itself felt.

"Young master, there are so many of us... Can you really take us all in?"

"If I've slogged through years of hard study and I don't even have this bit of authority after becoming an official... then I would seem quite incompetent."

"..."

They were finished, they might not only be unable to change the young master's future destiny, but they might also witness him being executed...

Becuase, truly, it was hard for them to refuse the young master's considerate arrangement....

"Young master... Are you planning to make us your lapdogs?"

"What lapdogs? You're all extraordinary beings. Once you learn the Ande Kingdom's language, I'll make you real peace officers and even give you promotions and raises.

I'll be your part-time teacher, teaching you the language of the Ande Kingdom. The temporary ID cards, I will also have someone expedite the process for you."

That very evening, the members of the Bronze Bounty Guild became peace officers of the Eternity capital, with a three-month trial period and no salary...

They studied the Ande Kingdom's language in the mornings and patrolled to maintain peace in the afternoons.

Not wanting to embarrass the young master, they made an extra effort while patrolling and maintaining public order.

After three months, they became official, salaried peace officers.

And the young master had already officially embarked on his path as a corrupt official.

While the young master was a peace officer, he started by accepting gifts and gradually moved on to taking bribes...

The criminals they arrested at the peace office, as long as they hadn't committed murder or were not extremely vicious, would be released after a few days if their families brought gifts for the young master...

The young master treated everyone equally, whether commoner or noble, as long as they hadn't committed murder, they could buy their freedom...

It was strange, while the young master's actions should have earned him a bad reputation, the citizens of the Eternity capital, as well as the nobles, all praised him as a young and talented official of integrity and honesty...

The law and order situation in the Eternity capital did actually improve during the young master's term in office, with nobody daring to cause disturbances in the streets or oppress the common people.

Bunny girl Meredith and the other members of the Bronze Guild did not forget their original mission during those three months.

However, the longer they were in contact with the young master, the more they felt... the key person triggering the "Historical Reenactment"... might very well be the young master himself.

Could it be that they could leave this "Historical Reenactment" just by preventing the young master from becoming a corrupt official?

Or perhaps... by helping the young master become a corrupt official as quickly as possible, they could leave the "Historical Reenactment"?

There was another key figure... the Emperor of the Ande Kingdom... whom they had not yet met.

The members of the Bronze Guild, unable to leave the "Historical Reenactment," decided to stay by the young master's side and work for him after discussing it among themselves.

At the very least, what the young master was doing at the moment... could only be described as both righteous and evil.

During their trial period, they didn't earn a salary, but the young master occasionally took them out for walks, bought them daily necessities, treated them to meals, and even bought them clothes.

In the blink of an eye, a year went by, and the young master got promoted. He was transferred to the military department.

Meredith of the Bronze Bounty Guild, along with Louis, Bazel, Dalton, Matthews, Jerome, and Raisent, were also taken by the young master to serve in the military department.

In his first year transferred to the military department, the young master was not just convincing passersby with reason, but also convincing...

Meredith, Louis, and the others had thought that the young master, newly transferred to the military department and being casually bossed around by senior officers, would submit to their treatment and suffer in silence...

Instead, the young master didn't take any of it lying down. He fought against anyone who tried to sideline him, anyone who sneered at him, and anyone who dared to give him a dirty look...

In less than a month, the young master had sped through the ranks of the military department with his talent and fists...

After blitzing through the military department in a month and being an idle officer for half a year, the young master, due to the matter of military pay, had won the goodwill of many generals...

Because during the half year the young master was in office, the military department never again fell behind in paying the soldiers on the kingdom's borders.

If the military department couldn't disburse the military pay, the young master would boldly go to the Ministry of Finance for money; if the Ministry of Finance was out of funds, the young master would go directly to the King of the Ande Kingdom for money...

The young master was blazing through his official career with a brave and carefree attitude.

What comforted the members of the Bronze Bounty Guild was that at this time, there seemed to be no signs of the young master becoming a major corrupt official...

"Meredith... do you think I could use the young master's method to fast-track through our kingdom's officialdom when we get back?"

"???"

"Dreaming in broad daylight isn't good, the young master looks greedy, but actually isn't at all. He seems to really want to climb the ranks and get rich, but in reality, he doesn't care about the size of his position at all.

When the young master takes office... it feels to me as if... it's like he's just playing around... Yes, like he's playing, and when he's having a good time he'll continue, and if not, he can leave at any moment...."

"Wonder what Lance would think if he knew that the corrupt official he talked about in the past was actually himself in a previous life."

"Isn't it obvious? Lance would say that the Golden City has always been his."
