Chapter 262: The Growth of a Youth

"You... you dare!"

Little Konrad shouted with a flushed face, but unfortunately, the hotel manager opposite was still light and breezy, with only deep disdain in his eyes.

"Yes, I dare!"

Lifting his feet lightly, walking around the down-and-out young master, Lao Fulanke was satisfied.

"Unless..."

"Unless what?"

"Unless... you use that seed to pay off the debt!"

Frank's greedy eyes stared tightly at little Konrad's clenched fist, where his goal was.

He didn't know what the seed was for, but Lord Buluokesi was willing to pay three hundred gold coins to buy it.

My God, three hundred gold coins!

With this money, he didn't need to be any manager in the Stein family anymore. He could buy a manor on the West Coast and spend the rest of his life happily and abundantly.

I heard that the sunshine and beaches there are very good, and the ladies are all enthusiastic and generous. It's really a paradise!

Although Longfang is also beautiful, it is ultimately too humid!

Hearing Lao Fulanke's words, Konrad was stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage.

He was just young, not stupid!

"You... you... how dare you!"

Lao Fulanke smiled, nodding kindly again: "Yes, I dare!"

"My noble Young Master Konrad, people... always have to eat!"

The smile remained, but the threat in his eyes was self-evident.

"You... you..."

The youth was taught a real lesson!

His knuckles were squeezed white, a bit of bloody smell lingered in his mouth, and despair wrapped around him!

Little Konrad only then discovered that he seemed to have nothing. Everything he relied on in the past was brought by the identity of Stein, and at this moment, it disappeared!

Lao Fulanke watched the youth in front of him slowly loosen his clenched fist, and a seed emitting a hazy green light lay quietly in the youth's hand.

Greed spread in his eyeballs!

This... is the seed worth three hundred gold coins!

Lao Fulanke reached out tremblingly to grab the happy future, sunshine, beaches, beauties......

The eyeballs covered by greed only had beauty, and did not see the determination in the youth's eyes!

Dropping it lightly, the seed was thrown into little Konrad's mouth.

"Eh?!" Lao Fulanke was stunned for a moment, then widened his eyes. "No!"

Seeing happiness slip away from before his eyes, Lao Fulanke collapsed and yelled, his two old arms reaching out toward Konrad's mouth.

He didn't know what he was going to do, he just instinctively wanted to reach out and grab back the happiness in his fantasy.

"Boom!"

Thick spiked vines whipped through the air, and Frank's old body flew backward like a broken sack, his spine hitting the hotel's oak wall heavily, making a tooth-aching groan, and the old accumulated dust fell down.

The old manager's sunken chest made a fine bone-cracking sound. At the large piece of skin and flesh gouged out by the vine thorns, the bloody and terrifying wound was gushing out warm liquid, and the heavy bloody smell exploded in the turbid air of the tavern.

The whole hotel fell into dead silence, and everyone seemed to be pinched by an invisible hand.

At this moment, Konrad was covered in dark green moss-like color, only his pupils were burning with molten gold-like cold light. The right half of his body had completely alienated into a ferocious plant form, and five python-like vine arms were swimming slowly in the air. The end of the thickest main vine was still hanging with semi-coagulated blood plasma—it was the "arm" that had just committed the crime.

"You... everyone... deserves to die!"

The spiked vines raged, and the main target was naturally the hotel manager Lao Fulanke, who was sitting in the corner coughing up blood.

The hotel's wooden door shattered in the roar, and Sewiniya's tall figure appeared outside the door.

"What happened..."

"Boom!"

Blood flowers appeared, and the spiked vines pierced through Lao Fulanke's chest. The tattered body was rolled in mid-air by the clawing vines and thrown around, blood splashing everywhere and falling on the heads of the panicked crowd.

"Not good!"

Sewiniya's emerald pupils had already ignited with green light with circulating incantations, and countless vines grew from the hotel's walls, floors, and roofs, quickly entangling and controlling the runaway Konrad.

A broken brick floated up from the chest, emitting starlight, making this bloody murder scene stained with three points of holiness, and then these starlight spread to Sewiniya's arms.

Sewiniya walked solemnly to the little Konrad who was being controlled, and the palm with scattered starlight pressed onto the vine tumor squirming on his chest.

When Sewiniya's palm left little Konrad's chest, a seed with faint gold patterns was stripped out.

With the stripping of the seed, the youth's alienated body gradually recovered, and the clawing vines turned back into arms. Only the scale-like moss skin could never go back, and the original brown hair completely turned into nettle-like gray-green.

Looking at the unconscious youth in front of her, Sewiniya waved her hand, and those vines growing from the floor, walls, and houses gently supported him.

"What is going on?"

Facing one of the thirteen people with the highest power in the Longfang City-State, the servants in the hotel looked at each other, and no one dared to speak.

The gold-patterned seed in her palm emitted a hazy green light. She didn't believe that anyone would eat this kind of thing for no reason.

"Young Master! Young Master Konrad!"

In the backyard, Kalomu finally broke free from the servants' control and ran in.

The old manager stroked the young master's mutated skin and gray-green hair, tears streaming down his face!

Just at this moment, Konrad, who was unconscious, opened his eyes, and there was still a faint golden residue in his eyes.

The indifferent eyes swept across the bloody and broken hotel and Sewiniya and the seed in her hand. Even when seeing the scale-like moss residue on the skin of his hands, there was no change at all. Only when seeing the old face of the old servant beside him with tear-filled eyes, the coldness in his eyes faded slightly.

"Lord Sewiniya! I've caused you trouble!"

At this moment, the youth grew up!

"Sigh! I can probably guess what happened! Youth, are you willing to be my apprentice?"

Little Konrad's indifferent face finally had a change. He pulled out an ugly smile from the corner of his mouth and bowed to the female elf!

With this one thing, the youth understood that power is the foundation of this world!

Reaching out to return the gold-patterned seed to the youth, Sewiniya turned and left.

"Keep this seed well. Perhaps in the future, when that person comes to Longfang City again, your appearance can be restored!"

Little Konrad's face had no change, as if he had no feeling about the change in appearance. He just kept the seed well and silently followed the teacher's footsteps.

On the other hand, the old servant Kalomu on the side showed an excited smile on his face, muttering "That's good! That's good!" and followed his young master's footsteps. ===== CHAPTER 263 =====
