The God's Games

The players looked at Butch again and were about to ask Hanjun to help them seal the contract right away.

Butch glanced at Hanjun and boldly spoke up, "Can I request the Master-Servant Contract?"

Hanjun was a bit curious and asked, "So, who do you want to make the master-servant contract with?"

Butch replied, "I want to sign the master-servant contract with you."

Butch felt that this was probably the smartest decision he had ever made in his life.

If Hanjun's power was as strong as Butch sensed, he thought that becoming Hanjun's servant would be worth it.

He even believed that being connected to Hanjun might bring him new opportunities.

Hanjun couldn't help but smile wryly.

So this was Butch's plan all along.

By signing a master-servant contract with Hanjun, Butch would become a dragon under the God of Light's command.

In other words, he would go from being just a Draconid race with a half-dragon bloodline to being the God of Light's True Dragon.

Hanjun wondered if Butch had figured out his true identity, which is why he made such a request.

He had to admit that Butch was pretty clever.

But before Hanjun could respond, the players began to protest, "Do you really think you have a choice?"

Butch ignored them and looked at Hanjun with pleading eyes.

Hanjun, however, had no intention of signing a contract with him.

He waved his hand and smiled, saying, "It wouldn't work if I signed the contract with you. Snowball wouldn't be happy about it."

The white wolf at Hanjun's side bared its teeth at Butch threateningly.

Butch was a bit disappointed that his plan had failed.

"So what if it's a white moon wolf?" he thought, "I'm just as strong as it is, and while the white moon wolf is an enemy of dark creatures, I'm a dragon—I can do far more than it can."

He ignored the white moon wolf, and after being rejected, he immediately put on a pitiful puppy-eyed look.

Seeing that Hanjun wasn't swayed, he could only say, "Then let's go with the equality contract."

Since Butch changed his mind, Hanjun naturally asked the players for their opinion.

The players didn't really understand the purpose of these contracts; they just wanted to ensure that Butch wouldn't harm anyone and would work obediently in the factory.

Hanjun understood this and suggested that the players pick someone to sign the equality contract with Butch.

The players waved their hands and decided that the blacksmith uncle would be the one to take on the contract.

Hanjun agreed with their decision.

The blacksmith uncle liked making weapons and was now a follower of the God of Light.

If they explained Butch's situation to him, he wouldn't leak the information.

Plus, since Butch would be working at the ironworks, giving the contract to the blacksmith was the perfect choice.

Hanjun wasn't worried that Butch would try anything tricky or suddenly attack the blacksmith.

As long as Hanjun was around, Butch wouldn't dare.

After settling this matter, Hanjun began discussing another issue with the players.

He said, "Brave heroes, the townspeople have finally returned, but there's still a problem that needs to be resolved."

Master PungPong didn't expect to receive another quest and quickly asked, "Is there anything we can help with?"

Hanjun said, "You've probably met the town mayor, Herman, right?"

Master PungPong thought for a moment, and after being reminded by Pork Rib Boss, he then remembered, "Is he that chubby middle-aged man? I think I vaguely remember him."

It's more than just a vague impression.

After Pork Rib Boss mentioned what Mayor Herman had said, they didn't have much of a good impression of this NPC.

But an NPC is still just an NPC, and according to game rules, they couldn't kill NPCs randomly unless they turned hostile.

That's just common knowledge in the game.

Master PungPong waited for Hanjun to continue.

Hanjun said, "Snowball suspects that Mayor Herman is connected to the incident at the quarry, but we don't have any solid evidence yet. Tonight, Father Barry will gather all the town's residents in front of the church. Maybe you can find some evidence before then and reveal Mayor Herman's true nature in front of everyone."

So that's the quest!

With this reminder, the players immediately recalled the mission they did at the quarry and quickly understood.

"Don't worry, we'll handle it!"

After assigning the task of investigating Mayor Herman to the players, Hanjun believed they would definitely provide a piece of satisfactory evidence.

He petted Snowball, who wagged his tail wildly, seemingly aware of what Hanjun had done, and gave a happy howl while nuzzling Hanjun's hand.

The players left after receiving the quest, leaving only the blacksmith uncle and Butch at the ironworks.

The blacksmith uncle was already used to Hanjun assigning quests to the brave heroes, who would then eagerly go off to complete them.

Meanwhile, Butch couldn't help but feel tense, as he seemed to realize who was really in charge of directing these brave heroes.

To command this group—no wonder it's Hanjun.

Butch noticed Hanjun glancing in his direction and quickly tried to act nonchalant as he asked the blacksmith uncle, "Where's the place I'm supposed to work?"

Seeing this, Hanjun knew that the issue with Butch was settled and that he wouldn't cause any more trouble.

He left the ironworks with Snowball and went back to find Father Barry in the church.

When Father Barry saw Hanjun coming in with Snowball, he was surprised and asked, "Holy Son, are you planning to reveal your identity tonight?"

Hanjun waved his hand helplessly.

Father Barry was a bit too obsessed with the idea of revealing his identity.

Of course, that wasn't the reason why he had to come here.

"Do you still remember what happened at the quarry back then?"

Father Barry was a bit confused by the sudden change in topic but he still followed Hanjun's lead and continued, "I remember. Didn't you say that what happened at the quarry was suspicious, that it wasn't what we were told?"
