A Pretentious Life In Another World Starting From Scratch

"Do you want to die?" After hearing Roswaal's words, Betty's face turned cold, and then she rubbed her face against Parker and said intimately, "Betty is just here to wait for her brother."

Roswaal was annoyed, but he didn't care. He seemed to be used to Betty's venomous tongue, so he turned to ask: "I wonder who the friend who helped Emilia retrieve the badge and rescued her is?" Where is it?"

"My name is Jiang Chen, nice to meet you, Count Roswaal."

Jiang Chen came out from behind and introduced himself politely.

"What!? Yes, it's you!"

The moment Roswaal saw Jiang Chen, the smile on his face froze, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he exclaimed.

He absolutely did not admit his mistake. This person was definitely the man flying at high speed in his territory.

"he????"

Everyone around them looked puzzled and didn't understand why Roswaal was so surprised when he saw Jiang Chen.

"Count Roswaal, do you know Jiang Chen?"

Amelia asked with a confused look on her face.

"Well, I met her once, but I didn't expect that it would be you who saved Lady Amelia.

Mr. Jiang Chen’s flying magic is really amazing!

Judging from your flying speed, I'm afraid you have reached the level of a wizard!

I don’t know which country you are from?

Forgive me for my ignorance, I know court mages from various countries, but I have never heard of Mr. Jiang Chen. "

Roswaal came back from his daze and asked in confusion.

He knows all the court mages from all the countries in the continent. Even if he has never met them, he has at least heard of them.

But I have never heard of a magician named Jiang Chen.

"The count has misunderstood. I'm just a novice who has been learning magic for a few days. It's normal that you haven't heard of me.

As for which country you are from?

You wouldn't believe it if I told you. "

Jiang Chen knew that Roswaal had misunderstood, so he explained.

"Well, Mr. Jiang Chen is really good at joking, how can someone who has learned magic for a few days fly so fast.

Since Mr. Jiang Chen doesn’t want to talk, I can’t ask any more questions. Please sit down first! "

When Roswaal heard that Jiang Chen was a novice who had only learned magic for a few days, he was stunned and the corner of his mouth twitched.

I have seen humble people, but I have never seen anyone so humble.

Damn it, your flying magic surpasses that of an old monster who has lived for hundreds of years, and you are a novice.

So who is he?

Not even as good as a novice?

I'm not willing to reveal the source yet. How could this be suspicious? It's just extremely suspicious!

No wonder Rem would take action directly.

But Roswaal was an old monster who had lived for hundreds of years after all. He quickly adjusted his attitude and waved everyone to sit down.

Regardless of whether Jiang Chen is a novice or a wizard, since he is a guest, he still needs to treat guests well.

Not long after, everyone was seated.

Rem and Ram directly pushed the dining cart up and started serving food to everyone.

As the owner of this mansion, Roswaal is naturally at the top.

Amelia, Jiang Chen is on the right.

As for Betty, she ignored everyone and fed Parker alone with a spoon, completely ignoring anyone.

The atmosphere suddenly seemed very strange.

After the food was served, Rem and Ram stood on both sides.

"Hey! So Mr. Jiang Chen, you have come all the way and you have some understanding of the situation in your country, right?"

Roswaal asked casually.

"Well, I know a little bit.

Now the king dies and preparations are made to elect a new king. "

Jiang Chen said.

"Oh, Mr. Jiang Chen really knows the situation in the kingdom!

So do you know Amelia's identity? "

Roswaal continued to ask.

"I know, one of the candidates for the 42nd king of the Kingdom of Lucnica."

Jiang Chen said directly.

"Ah! You knew my identity from the beginning!?"

Amelia was shocked when she heard this and looked at Jiang Chen with a look of disbelief on his face.

After all, when she first saw Jiang Chen, he was still wearing a somewhat tattered white coat and was surrounded by three gangsters.

No matter how you look at it, you look like a down-and-out immigrant.

And she never told Jiang Chen her identity from beginning to end.

She didn't understand why Jiang Chen knew so much about the entire kingdom, even her identity.

Could it be that Jiang Chen's initial depression was just an act?

Did he actually have an ulterior motive for approaching me?

"right."

Jiang Chen had no intention of denying it.

As an honest scientific researcher, he never lies.

"How could this be? Then everything you did to me was a lie, including helping me retrieve the badge and fighting Elsa for me, all to achieve your ulterior secret?"

Hearing what Jiang Chen said, Amelia felt very uncomfortable and spoke angrily.

I thought it was an unexpected encounter and acquaintance with Jiang Chen.

However, it now seems that Jiang Chen knew her identity from the beginning.

Are you helping her retrieve the badge and fighting Elsa to the death to achieve the goal of getting closer to her?

Fortunately she still likes him.

At this moment, Amelia felt that she had been deceived by Jiang Chen.

She couldn't accept the purpose of Jiang Chen approaching her.

"You're wrong. I never thought about getting close to you, and I don't have any ulterior secrets. I only helped you because you helped me in the alley."

Jiang Chen stared into Amelia's angry eyes and spoke calmly.

To him, he is not from this world at all.

There is no need to approach Emilia specifically.

It was just because she saved him, and as a time traveler, he knew that Emilia would die in the slums, so he helped her. It was that simple.

"It's that simple?"

Amelia was stunned, thinking that Jiang Chen had some hidden secrets when he approached her.

As a result, Jiang Chen fought with Elsa for her, but it turned out that he only helped her because she defeated three gangsters and helped him.

This reason is extremely ordinary, yet so sincere and heart-warming.

"Maybe this reason is hard to believe in your eyes, but it is the truth."

Jiang Chen doesn't like lying and doesn't want to lie, which is why he helps Amelia.

At that time, he had just traveled through time and had no means of attack.

Felt passed by and left him to fend for himself, but Emilia clearly knew that her most important thing had been taken away.

But instead of leaving, he chose to stop and save him.

If the person who stopped to save him was Felt, Jiang Chen would not have helped Amelia, but Felt.

"Sorry, I shouldn't have doubted you."

Amelia looked at Jiang Chen's upright face, serious expression, and upright eyes. She felt guilty in her heart and spoke apologetically.

"Oh! Mr. Jiang Chen's reason is so surprising!

But you can help Lady Amelia with a small favor, but I cannot not reward you for this, otherwise the entire Mezzas family will be laughed at by outsiders.

So what reward does Mr. Jiang Chen want? "

Roswaal naturally didn't believe that Jiang Chen would help Amelia so much just for a small favor.

So in the name of reward, I wanted to explore Jiang Chen's background and see Jiang Chen's true purpose.

"You want to reward me?"

Jiang Chen asked.

"Yes, tell me! As long as I can do it, I swear in the name of the earl that I will satisfy you."

Roswaal waved his hand and promised generously.

"I heard that there is a forbidden library in the Earl's mansion. I hope to go in and study."

Jiang Chen didn't hide anything and directly stated his purpose.

"ah!"

Betty, who was feeding the cat at the side, was stunned. She raised her head and looked at Jiang Chen with a surprised look on her face.

I thought Jiang Chen was here for Amelia, but he didn't expect that he was actually targeting her, and it was also targeting the Forbidden Library she was guarding.
