After I Stopped Sponsoring, the Female Leads Began Obsessing Over Me chapter 210

210 – Paying the Bounty

Shaleam Bridge is powerful.

Therefore, there is a high possibility that Shaleamgyo is hidden among the academy professors.

No.

It will definitely be there.

He is also a professor who sits in a fairly high position.

Otherwise, it would be difficult for Shaleam Bridge to be active in the academy like this.

So.

Engelgard.

There were several reasons why this person, who was also the head of the swordsmanship department, caught my eye as he might be a member of the Shaleam School.

The first thing is timing.

Not long after the red flag was removed, Engelgard and Master arrived.

Even so, the master’s ability is unrivaled. Someone like Engelgard arrived here so quickly?

The other professors are still not even showing their noses.

Engelgard’s sense of duty is also not great, which makes me even more suspicious.

In addition to that.

More than anything, the problem is the attitude he showed when he first walked towards me.

Engelgard was tapping the handle of his sword as if he was thinking about something.

The way he turned his head and looked around seemed like he was calculating our strength.

Only after checking on the teacher did he take his hand off the handle of his sword.

It’s natural to have doubts about what that means.

No, it wasn’t suspicious, it was a certainty.

This person is a member of the Shaleam Church.

But.

“What are you thinking so hard about?”

“It’s nothing. I’m just a little distracted.”

“Oh, that’s possible. I understand.”

I didn’t react much to him.

‘Let’s hide what we noticed.’

It is a strategic choice.

There is no need to show off here.

From now on, just by watching him, you can predict to some extent what Shaleam Bridge will do.

Besides.

Definitely someone as good as Engelgard.

… It might be related to the ‘culprit’ I’m looking for.

We are certain that the culprit has some connection with Shaleam Bridge.

With the options narrowed down to two, Engelgard could definitely be the key to solving the mystery.

“Oh. And congratulations.”

He put his sword back in its sheath and opened his mouth.

“Yes?”

“That guy you caught. There was a pretty big bounty on him. You’ll get at least a few billion kroner.”

“I think I can get my hand refitted just fine. It doesn’t look like anything’s going wrong, so I’ll go first, Professor Asilia. Then, bye.”

He left like that.

Well, digging in is something that can be done slowly.

I did it so secretly that they didn’t even know that I noticed it.

‘Anyway.’

Then, shall we pick up some drops from the scenario boss?

I picked up the ‘Bloodmarked Balmacan’. The story goes that he kicked it and put it on his shoulder.

After using the magic, it feels like some kind of blood hole has opened in my foot.

In the distance, I saw the back of a cat walking into the shadows and disappearing.

“Black?”

This guy glances back at me.

— Nyaa

I had the illusion of hearing a sound like

.

No trace of him could be found.

Morning a day later.

Dannya was the one who welcomed me when I woke up.

Danya returned to normal quite easily.

This is probably because the spell was lifted when Evan, the sorcerer, died.

“Are you awake?”

She lifted my upper body up and said, “Wait a minute!” After saying that, she quickly ran to her kitchen.

What she brought out from her kitchen was a table with breakfast.

She poured water into her water cup and brought it to her mouth.

“?”

“Drink it.”

“I can do this…”

“How?”

I gave up trying to grab her cup of water by gathering her arms.

Because Danya was really crying.

“It’s all because of me… Ian… You tried to save me… I’m sorry. And thank you…”

“I told you to just say thank you. I’m sorry. It’s natural.”

“… Still.”

“It’s okay. Let me drink some water quickly.”

“Yes!”

Danya was so passionate that she ended up pouring down the glass of water in one go, but she drank it all without spilling it anyway.

Thanks to Danya, who took care of everything for her, she finished breakfast safely.

Is it because I took a one-shot of water?

“…Hmm.”

Please take a moment to realize that it is difficult for men to urinate properly without hands. “I’ll help you!” Somehow, after getting help and resolving the issue, everyday peace came.

And it was around that time that a knock was heard.

— Knock!

A knocking sound like a neat civil servant.

“I’ll go!”

Danya ran out and returned with an official document in her hand.

“I will read it to you. Announcement of receiving the reward. Ian Blackingas has made a significant contribution to eliminating the wanted man…”

“My eyes are normal? Do you just want to show me?”

“Ah.”

In short, this was the official document.

There is a bounty on Evan Kessler, and since the bounty culprit is dead, only 30% of the bounty is paid.

The reward is.

“1 Billion kroner…!”

Danya opened her eyes wide.

“I can get better treatment with this. I’ll pay you back later, so get the best treatment…”

I calmed Danya down a bit and then lost myself in thought.

‘Is it okay to go to the pension workshop at this level? Shall we try to guess one hand correctly?’

That is also a very player-like thought.

In fact, there is a concept of tuning in Panta

Tuning.

Players with extreme equipment skills are now optimizing the specifications by adjusting the detailed values of the equipment.

At this point, the amount of money it takes to increase one value each time you equip equipment increases exponentially.

‘Why do you do such a foolish thing? ‘I’d rather adjust the equipment.’

The thought may come to mind, but in fact, there are limits to how humans can wear equipment.

No matter how effective the shoes are, you can’t wear four pairs at a time, right?

So the concept that emerged is body tuning.

Since we can’t adjust more equipment, how about tuning the body itself? A slightly crazy story.

Of course, as a member of Pantaaka, I have experience with body tuning.

‘… It’s actually a good thing that my hand fell off.’

With that crazy thought, a store name came to mind.

「Lichten Pension Workshop」

The workshop run by one of the continent’s leading alchemists is located here in Liechten.

The biggest feature of that place is that they sell body parts.

From all kinds of magic engineering prosthetics made through alchemy.

Various things, including the bodies of monsters, are being sold ‘secretly’.

Of course, I have no intention of putting the monster’s hand in mine.

‘You don’t even need your hands. Since there is super regeneration, all you have to do is put in the framework with the best materials.’

My hands are completely crushed right now, so their super regeneration is not working.

Skeleton.

Even if a horse is a skeleton, all you need is a stick the size of a hair, similar to the body structure, and the remaining parts will recover on their own.

Therefore, it is said to be the optimal condition for tuning.

.”… I never thought I would have body tuning.”

You never know what will happen to a person’s life.

Lichten. So, the bounty payment system of the ‘city-state of Liechten’ was quite modern.

“Mr. Ian Black Angus. It has been confirmed that you have killed the wanted criminal, Evan Kessler. Here is 1 billion kroner.”

— Jangle

A bounty that is paid out very simply.

It turns out that the academy has a system in place to share the results of its case investigation in real time.

It is a city that runs efficiently despite its small size.

Danya takes the gold coin purse and makes a whining sound.

Well. If you give me 100 gold coins, it must be heavy.

“Put it in my pocket.”

When I point to Balmacan, Danya shakes her head.

“No, it’s okay.”

Well. Although he looks small, he is a serious academy cadet. That’s not a difficult weight for Danya. Above all, Danya is agile, so she is good at dealing with pickpockets.

And so we took our steps.

It is about a 15-minute walk from the southern part of Liechten, where various government offices are located, to the [Lichten Pension Workshop].

Thanks to Danya, who walked in front and next to me and escorted me, we were able to quickly arrive at the pension workshop.

“Wow – it’s so fancy!”

Danya was impressed as soon as she saw the building.

In fact, the golden building of the Alchemy Workshop was so extravagant that it was almost luxurious.

Because the only people who use this place are rich people.

Furthermore, not only the appearance but also all the new and strange smells coming from inside the building were enough to attract people.

But.

“This is not where we are going.”

“Nyan?”

Leading Danya, who was embarrassed, I walked around the side of the building.

Then you will find a rather dirty and narrow alley.

I took a moment to walk in a place that smelled of dust and old stones.

“There’s nothing here…? There’s no store.”

“It’s hiding.”

“To the store?”

“Yes.”

Danya looked around.

A street where there is not even a sign, let alone a store.

Dania looks up at me, embarrassed.

“Let’s go a little further.”

The [Lichten Pension Workshop] You see out there is a branch.

If you walk to a place where you can no longer see that gorgeous building…

‘Is this about it?’

I looked around and stopped in my seat.

I spread magical power with my toes.

Then, deep in the alley, a shabby sign hidden in a gap between buildings that seemed to overlap was revealed.

[ Alchemy Workshop ]

A signboard without any modifiers or decorative words.

Written in a cumbersome handwriting, this is the best workshop on the continent.

No signboard or special name required.

It is a ‘pension workshop’.
