F-class adventurer of suspicious rumors
After shaving himself clean with the razor he found in the closet, Hyun-jun left the bathroom. The towels are also very soft. Even if I sold all of Hyun-joon’s clothes, I wouldn’t be able to match this towel. With a steamy body, he wore a white shirt and black trousers brought by the maid. I think it’s better than the clothes I used to wear in modern times. There were also leather shoes, but the leather was very soft and comfortable to move. Hyeonjun, who had been moving his body for a while, hardened his expression at the sudden thought.
‘The size is just right.’
It is the perfect size for Hyun-jun’s body, as if not only the clothes but also the shoes could be tailored. No matter how good your eyes are, could you have brought clothes that fit exactly in that moment? After entering the mansion, Guihern and Hyeon-jun entered the room without stopping. But how on earth did the maid come after Hyeon-jun with clothes that fit him perfectly?
‘Did you collect information that perfectly beforehand? Or did he really recognize it the moment he saw it for the first time and prepare for it?’
Either way it’s creepy. Even if you have collected information there, where? The oldest official record of Hyun-jun is that he was issued an ID about 15 days ago. There will be no correct information. No, there is only one place to point out.
‘Shosanna.’
Probably, if you ask the person who knows Hyun-joon best in this world, it would be Shosanna. Vance and Yetir were probably dead, and the temple people wouldn’t be bragging about Hyeon-jun. Does Shosanna accurately grasp Hyun-jun’s body size?
‘Well, I don’t know if it’s Hackman or Maria.’
Unlike the easy-going Shosanna, Hackman is the owner of the shop, and Maria looks naive but is the hostess of the shop. It wouldn’t be strange if he collected information about Hyun-joon without him noticing.
‘I hope it doesn’t hurt Shosanna.’
As his thoughts kept spinning around and around, Hyeon-joon just thought of it as the creepy skills of the maids and passed it off. Now you have to think about more important things.
‘What the Marquis wants from me.’
The Marquis of Benting is said to be shunned, but he is a Marquis. Hyeon-jun also knows what a Marquee is. A great nobility with territory on the borders of the country and a strong military force. Until I heard from the priest, I thought the marquess was also a count and looked at it lightly, but it was not a difference that could be passed on so easily. military commander. Even the knights called him Excellency. That is, military commanders with huge territories on the borders of the country.
‘Isn’t it just a monarch?’
Isn’t it a small country within a kingdom? How could such a person treat Hyeon-joon so generously just because he had something to eat?
‘Is this a tile to be used by the nobles of Scanden?’
If so, you don’t even have to do it like this. Even if you just drag it along, you have no choice but to keep your mouth shut and be dragged away. Even if the reason for sending the knights and wagons was to shake off the other nobles, there would be no need to gently coax the prey into their hands. It’s just a matter of cutting off the neck and skinning it.
‘Innovators? It’s absurd.’
No matter how much the innovative group is said to have been from the common people, it does not mean that they are really common people. This is not a place for an F-class adventurer. I don’t know if it’s a knife that I’ll wield once and throw away. the story comes back If it is a knife to be used and thrown away, there is no need to treat it like this.
‘There are my values that I don’t know.’
Even the priests do not know that. Do nobles know? If he knew, why did he stay still until he was taken away with his eyes wide open for Hyeon-jun, who was worth giving the Marquis a great deal of strength?
‘No, what if it wasn’t stolen, but something I couldn’t have in the first place?’
What if it’s medicine for the marquis but poison for the nobles of Scandinavia? The guards who came the previous morning. You came to the noble’s lobby? which lobby? You want me to bring you to the aristocratic family?
‘It could be a lobby to make me an asshole or kill me.’
A faint outline is visible. But crucially, it is impossible to know what kind of picture the Marquis is drawing.
‘… Lack of information.’
Again, I am acutely aware of the lack of information. It always has been. Whenever I feel like I’m getting a clue, I can’t make a clear decision because of the lack of information. It is unavoidable for Hyeon-jun, who came from Earth, but since this situation is repeated, he has no choice but to criticize.
‘I’d like to search on the Internet.’
Of course, you can still search, but it’s useless because it’s in the store. I looked around here and there just in case, but I gave up neatly because I was selling my 1st political sense for 1,000 karma. Mana Affinity 1 can live with 1,000 karma, but Political Sense 1 is 1,000 is absurd.
Of course, this is just Hyeon-joon’s superficial idea. It is because the taste of money and power that it gives to Hyun-joon, who has lived a life far from politics all his life, is too far away, and he has no sense of the powerful power of political sense. I couldn’t even go to college or the military, and even when I was working at a construction site, I just did what I was told to do, so I couldn’t experience politics in the university, politics in the military, or politics in the company. high school? How many children’s pranks do you have to do? To Hyun-joon, who has not even tasted the brutal politics of shaking hands with a smile and then turning around, sticking a knife in the back of a guy, kicking him off the cliff, and licking every single piece of flesh and every drop of his blood, his political sense is nothing but garbage that eats up karma. It would probably be worth 1,000 karma, but Hyeon-jun passed it on lightly.
‘It’s the same as before. I can’t make a decision because I don’t have information.’
In the end, Hyun-joon withheld judgment. It’s the most foolish thing, but there’s nothing he can do. Once I understood the situation, I decided to make a decision. I was admiring the decorations and furniture in the room to cool my head, when I heard a sudden knock on the door. Hyunjoon was startled. There was no sign of coming to his senses. It is said that the soundproofing is good, but it gives me goosebumps that I do not notice until I knock on the door.
“yes. Come on in.”
The door opened without a sound, and the maid she saw when she first entered the room lowered her head and spoke in a clear voice.
“Jun, the meal is ready. Would you like to eat at a restaurant? Or would you like to eat in your room?”
“I will go to the restaurant.”
I just want to hide in my room, but I decided to go to the restaurant to get a little information. Hyeonjun followed her and focused his senses.
‘He moves well and has developed muscles, but I don’t think he can come so quietly.’
No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t seem like an assassin approached secretly. Hyeonjun thought about it and spoke to her.
“Have you ever been in front of the room?”
“yes.”
‘Damn it. Didn’t he say something he shouldn’t have said?’
In the first place, there was only one sign of walking away after closing the door, and this maid continued to stand in front of the door like a statue without any movement. Hyeonjun tried to remember if he hadn’t said anything useless.
‘Nothing but chatter in the bathroom. maybe.’
Hyunjoon let out a sigh of relief and told her.
“You don’t have to do that next time.”
“Sorry for the inconvenience.”
“no···.”
There is nothing to say even with annoying. Hyunjoon finally shut his mouth.
‘Wouldn’t it be more sorry to tell Guihern directly?’
Hyeonjun pondered, thinking of the obvious thing to hit on the forehead no matter who heard it. ‘Hey, your assistant shooter the other day. It was no joke. I was really surprised that the world had changed. some, huh? Should I take care of it?’ Bastards who speak bullsh*t like this should disappear for the sake of human civilization.
Hyeonjun just silently followed the maid. Passing through the hall on the first floor and entering the restaurant, Hyeon-jun sighed in order not to be noticed.
‘I’d rather just eat at a beggarly inn.’
The long, straight dining table was covered with red cloth embroidered with gold thread, and silver candlesticks and tableware were neatly placed. If Hyun-joon ate in his room, what would he have prepared the tableware for? did you just leave it? Or did he figure out what Hyeon-jun decided to eat at the restaurant with the power of an unknown magical maid?
The maid guided Hyeon-jun, who was thinking nonsense, to the center of the long table and silently took out a chair. Hyunjoon just sat down with his mouth shut. In my heart, I wondered what would happen if I sat at the top of the table, but luckily it wasn’t. In fact, the chair of the chief seat is a person who stands out by itself, so it seems to be the seat of the Marquis himself. As Hyeon-jun sat down, the door opened and Gwihern and the maid carrying the tray entered.
“Did you rest well?”
“yes. I didn’t expect you to be so welcoming, thank you so much.”
“Fortunately, the.”
While I was talking with Guihern, the food was piled up on the table. They explain something about food, but I haven’t heard a single thing. Hyeonjun just laughed and said to Gwihern.
“Am I eating alone in this large place?”
“Yes, servants eat in a separate space.”
“I think it’s a little too quiet to eat alone, would you like to join us?”
Hyunjoon threw the dice. Gwihern smiled softly, but Hyeonjun felt his mood slightly shaken.
“All right.”
Gwihern sat across from Hyeon-jun around the long table. Suddenly, another maid enters the room pushing a tray.
‘Be alert.’
Food was placed in front of Gwihern as well, and the maid poured a glass of wine for her, and when she left, Hyeon-jun picked up the tableware.
“What a wonderful dinner.”
“thank you.”
Perhaps out of consideration for Hyeon-jun, the main dish was served instead of the course. The thick steak and beautifully arranged garnish in all colors look harmonious. Hyeonjun cut a little bit of steak. As the gravy came out, a strange meat scent spread out in harmony with the scent of spices and sauce. When you put it in your mouth, the unexpectedly refreshing sauce touches your tongue, and the moment you chew it, the juice explodes and blends with the sauce to show a new taste. Its unique texture, which is soft and chewy, is also excellent. what kind of meat It’s a taste I’ve never tasted before. I swallowed the meat and took a sip of wine. The alcohol content is low and the astringent taste is light. However, the fruity scent along with the grape scent hit my nose and I was immediately captivated.
“Nice.”
“I will definitely tell the cooks.”
said Gwihern proudly. Other than a soft smile, it was a different expression on his face that I had never seen before. But it’s something to be really proud of. Hyeon-jun ate all kinds of food with the money he saved while working hard. From course meals that cost hundreds of thousands of won per meal, to secret restaurants in alleys that only regular customers know about, I wandered around. On days off, I set aside a day and searched the alleys for hours in the morning, contemplating where to have lunch. Although he was a laborer, he spared no money for meals. There were times when I saved money for months and spent hundreds of thousands of won a month on food. It is also the reason why he did not save a single penny even after working hard for three years. It is such a wonderful meal that Hyeon-jun praised it highly. Was this some kind of magic? Is the cook a magician?
“Thanks to your Excellency, Marquis, I am able to have this kind of experience.”
Gwihern tilted his wine glass while examining Hyeon-joon behind his soft eyes.
“His Excellency heard Jun-nim’s performance and said he would definitely like to invite him.”
How did the writer on the frontier hear about Hyeon-jun so quickly? It must be the power of magic this time.
“I don’t know what rumors spread, but it’s all the priests’ achievements. How can I, a mere adventurer, do great things?”
“If you really hadn’t done anything, this story wouldn’t have come out like this.”
“Actually, I don’t even know what rumors are going around. Can you hear me?”
Gwihern looked at Hyeonjun and said softly.
“Rumors spread widely that there was an adventurer who first noticed the seriousness of the incident targeting the temple and accepted the request, and found and killed the culprit who rescued the children and drove the two combat priests to their deaths in just one day.”
Hyeonjun lost control of his body and his eyelids trembled slightly. That’s all right.
“In fact, it was an accident that I received the request, and the temple already knew how serious it was. It was the priests who drove the culprit and found the children.”
“yes. But no one reached out, and in the end it was Jun-nim who killed the culprit.”
Hyeon-jun leisurely took a bite of the garnish with the meat. The heavenly taste is no different from chewing rubber. Even sweet wine feels like muddy water.
“Actually, I have something to ask the Chief Chamberlain.”
“Tell me.”
Despite the unnatural change of topic, Guihern responded gently.

“I don’t know how a noble person like the Marquis invited someone like me.”
“How can I count on His Excellency’s intentions?”
There was silence for a while. Hyeonjun silently quenched his thirst with wine. Guihern added after drinking wine.
“But if I dare to guess, His Excellency the Marquis likes the brave.”
“…”
Wouldn’t it be nice if that was the end of it? In the end, the only thing I could do was headbutt him, so I ran into him. Isn’t it too much to give him a hint?
“Would you like to take a look around the garden after dinner?”
“I still wanted to see you once.”
I just want to get stuck in my room and go into hot water. Hyeonjun muttered inwardly, conscious of his back damp with sweat.
