Chapter 731

"Ahahaha!"

The moment he was kicked out of the cemetery, the red-haired Director, whose face was flushed with holding back, couldn't help but burst into loud laughter, patting Leon's back vigorously while laughing.

"My god! It really cracked me up! The expression on the Third Generation old man's face when watching you forge was like you were cooking shit in his rice pot, his face even started to turn blue!"

"..."

"Ahahaha, ouch, I really can't take it anymore!"

After reaching out to wrap her arm around Leon's shoulder, the red-haired Director, who had been holding back too much, leaned half on him, trying to stretch her face to imitate the square-headed old man's expression while panting with laughter:

"Third Generation old man... haha... although he... although he isn't a bad person, that mouth is really annoying!"

"Lord Taurus is such a good person, but every time he sees Lord Taurus, the first sentence is always asking when she can die. I've wanted to fix him for a long time! Ahahaha!"

After finishing the small grudge between herself and the square-headed old man, the red-haired Director laughed and said:

"Leon! Do you know what he told me before you came back? He said he looked down on the current blacksmiths, feeling that they pay too much attention to the forging process, and are just a bunch of trash with no future."

"But when he was teaching you later, he wished he could stand behind you and hold your hands to operate step by step. Every time your hand shook, his face would twitch immediately..."

"Ouch, I can't take it anymore, it cracked me up!"

"..."

If he were purely a bystander, Leon would probably laugh along, but as the person who "cooked shit" in the joke, he really couldn't laugh.

Looking at the red-haired Director who was laughing until she was leaning forward and backward, leaning most of her body on him, Leon couldn't help but say helplessly:

"Director, I can't walk like this. We've been kicked out for a long time, and we haven't even walked ten meters yet..."

"Hmm hmm, then I'll... haha... then I'll hold it in!"

After pursing her lips hard, the red-haired Director finally managed to stop laughing, then bit her lower lip and hummed:

"Just right, you probably held it in for a long time too. If you have anything to ask, just ask!"

"Then I'll ask... were these things just now intentional?"

"Yes, but not entirely~"

The red-haired Director said with a smile:

"The purpose of me bringing you here was actually to ask him to make a new main combat anomalous object for you, and by the way, let him give you some pointers on forging secret arts, at most it's just pitting him for a few more good materials."

"You saw how many things he hid. Because they were buried for too long, the power of many materials has dissipated quite a bit. Compared to being buried by him until they are useless, it's better to take them to forge anomalous objects for you."

"But... I didn't forge anything either..."

Recalling the things he forged, Leon's mouth corners couldn't help but twitch twice, then he sighed and said:

"Compared to being wasted by me like this, those things would be better buried in his coffin."

"That's not necessarily true."

The red-haired Director shook her head upon hearing this, then reminded with a smile:

"Did you forget? Besides 【Desire-Dream Invader】, the Third Generation Lord also forged another anomalous object for you. Do you want to see it before saying anything?"

Another anomalous object? That roll of black snake skin? Could its ability change the anomalous objects I forged? But how did you know?

After hearing the red-haired Director's reminder, Leon couldn't help but be surprised:

"Director, you also understand forging? Can you see the function of that snake skin?"

"I don't understand forging, but I understand luck."

The red-haired Director said with a smile: "Today is my birthday. Every cleaner can get the blessing of the Lord of the Starry Sky on their birthday, obtaining strong luck comparable to getting what one wishes. As long as it's not the kind of wish that is completely impossible, there is a possibility of realization."

"And so far, I have made two wishes today. The second wish is to help you get the most suitable anomalous object, and my intuition tells me that the snake skin must be the thing most suitable for you."

Birthday wish?

After hearing the red-haired Director's words, Leon couldn't help but be slightly startled.

When it was his birthday last year, he had triggered this blessing inadvertently, but according to the Black Goat, this blessing is also accompanied by a curse. After the strong luck, you will follow with bad luck, and every time a wish is realized, you will have bad luck once.

A precious wish that only comes once a year and requires a price, actually used to help him get an anomalous object? How can he repay this favor?

"Thank you..."

Looking at the red-haired beauty who was smiling in front of him, Leon said with emotion:

"Director, I..."

"Alright, no need to say thank you! Mainly because this thing is indeed the most suitable for you, and I guess only you can get so many 'special' anomalous objects."

After raising her hand to make a stop gesture, the red-haired Director took out a small bottle from somewhere and said with a smile:

"If you really want to thank me, then just like we agreed before, help me realize my birthday wish, how about it?"

"Okay!"

After hearing the red-haired Director's request, Leon, who was full of emotion, nodded without hesitation, then asked with some curiosity:

"Director, your second wish is to help me get a suitable anomalous object, then what is the first wish? Is it very difficult to realize?"

"Not difficult, not difficult, very simple."

After handing over the small bottle in her hand, the red-haired Director said with expectation:

"You take a big sip of this, and then close your eyes, that's it!"

"???"

What kind of strange wish is this?

Looking at the somewhat familiar small bottle in his hand, and then looking at the Director who was smiling like a little fox, Leon's brows frowned slightly. After unscrewing the bottle, he didn't do it immediately, but cautiously sniffed it slightly.

Blackberry, cedar, spices, blood orange... the complex, rich yet clear and refreshing aroma rushed into his nasal cavity with a slight spiciness, surging into his lungs uncontrollably.

Then it combined with the blood in his breathing, flowing the inexplicable fragrance through his blood vessels throughout his body, making Leon's brain feel slightly numb, as if lying in a velvet soft pillow, producing a wonderful feeling similar to being slightly tipsy.

"..."

Wine?

And this taste... is it the only bottle of "Drunken Brew" level wine among those sent by Lord Taurus? Didn't I put it in the warehouse on the first floor of the Virgin Branch? Why is it in your hands?

After shaking his head vigorously to shake off the wonderful tipsy feeling, Leon asked with confusion:

"Director? Isn't this that bottle..."

"Oh, never mind what it is, just take a big sip and be done with it, I won't harm you!"

"..."
