92 – He?
This f*cking adventurer’s guild calls us family when they’re taking commissions, and says they need help, so they flip their palms and say f*ck you right away?
Bolton and Elysia were trembling with a sense of betrayal.
In such a situation, the young man’s willingness to help them warmly soothed their wounded hearts.
apart from that-
“I am very grateful, but… ”
It never occurred to me that the young man would be of any help.
His fluttering, squinting impression was as light as if it would fly away if the wind blew.
In addition, the atmosphere in the adventurer’s guild was overly neat and refined.
He was the kind of person who should be in District 1 or Academy Street, not in the adventurer’s guild.
What if you happen to visit the adventurer’s guild?
‘Please punish those who bully me!’
Maybe it was to entrust that kind of mission.
“Oh, that’s fine. Would you like to entrust that friend with a request?”
At that time, someone made a sarcastic remark towards Elysia and Bolton.
Daltasian, an adventurer with an honest and righteous personality, was respected by many.
-Pretending to be clean by yourself, you f*cking bastard.
However, there were also those who did not like Daltasian for various reasons, such as envy and jealousy.
The man who had just mocked Elysia and Bolton was a living witness.
The scar on the left side of his face, which seemed to be connected to his mean smile, was Margo, a 5th-class adventurer like Daltasian.
Margo could be said to be an adventurer similar to or better than Daltasian in terms of performance and skill.
That’s why I was compared to Daltasian even more.
“Looking at what you said earlier, you looked like you were in a f*cking hurry. huh? Grab hold of someone who wants to help~ Is it time to cover the cold water with the hot water?”
Margot, who had always been disliked by Daltasian, mocked the situation his party was facing.
“Right, do you know? Contrary to what he looks like, isn’t he a tremendously talented person?”
Margo was sitting in a corner of the guild building, playing cards with the party members and waiting for a meeting with the guild leader.
His party members who were playing cards with Margo giggled and helped each other.
“Aside from your skills, I think you’ll do amazingly well with anything you’re looking for. The kids in the neighborhood always hide their belongings – that’s how they got trained.”
“Kuh-k-k-k-uh, look at what the f*ck is saying.”
“…”
“…”
Bolton and Elysia glared at them fiercely.
“I know it’s a f***ing thing because the string you’re holding is flimsy, but be careful with your eyes. If you fall off the ropes and your limbs become crippled, then what will you do?”
Margot looked at the card and passed it over with a relaxed smile.
Absence of Daltasians. and crisis.
Psychologically, Margo had no choice but to gain the upper hand.
“What the f*ck… ”
“Bastards… ”
In the end, Bolton and Elysia avoid eye contact first.
They looked at the teller again.
“How can you, really not?”
Elysia, who regained her composure due to a series of circumstances, spoke with a desperate attitude.
“It is true that this guild is operating a policy for the safety of adventurers. however… To suddenly organize a search party just because you suddenly disappeared from a drinking party-”
The window clerk only smiled bitterly.
“Ah really! It’s frustrating! He wasn’t in the mood to suddenly disappear like that!?”
“It’s okay, Elysia. stop.”
“Bolton!?”
“This is not the time to waste time arguing like this. Just, let’s entrust the commission with our money. After entrusting the request, finding it, then what did these adventurer guild bastards do when Daltasian was in danger. I’m just letting people know.”
The window clerk was slowly hardening, and the two were really about to request a mission to search for Daltasian.
“Hey guys…? If possible, I’d like to help too?”
A young man with his characteristic narrow-eyed expression, who seemed to be smiling servilely, intervened cautiously.
“Ah- uh… Ha.”
f*ck.
What are you going to do if you help!?
In frustration, Bolton managed to endure the obvious intimidation.
If you lose your temper to someone who wants to help, you’re no different from those Margo gangsters over there.
“Hey- I’m really grateful. The problem we’re facing right now is a pretty serious one.”
It was the time when Elysia tried to refuse the young man’s favor with a friendly smile.
“huh?”
Elysia’s eyes, looking at the young man, gained strength.
“You- no… are you an academy cadet?”
“what?”
Bolton looked at the young man in surprise.
“uh…?”
surely.
Looking closely, his outfit had many similarities with the uniforms of the academy cadets.
blazer jacket.
In addition to not wearing the most important thing in the atmosphere of the academy cadets.
‘Is this what an academy cadet is? Because of the easy impression that comes out of the sentimental phrase ‘nonsense’, such similarity has finally caught my eye.
“I’d like to say yes with confidence, but I’m just a newbie who hasn’t even taken my first class yet.”
The man smiled and scratched the back of his head.
He seemed to be spurring on his easygoing impression, but Elysia and Bolton didn’t feel that he was easy anymore.
The academy cadets were nine out of ten—no, ninety-nine out of a hundred nobles.
“Academy cadets… are you?”
said Bolton with a look of disbelief.
“hahahaha, even if it’s like me, it must be hard to believe.”
Bolton snorted as he smiled refreshingly, as if fully understood.
What is this guy all about?
at that time.
Elysia looked at the young man with a gaze of deep interest.
If you were an academy cadet, there was a high probability that you would have connections in aristocratic society.
If the aristocrat helps him find Daltasian, it will be of great help.
of course.
Under the assumption that the young man in front of him was really an academy cadet.
‘Is he…?’
Aren’t you impersonating yourself by picking up an academy uniform somewhere and wearing it?
It was difficult to connect the young man in front of me with the concept of an academy cadet, to the point where I even had such a far-fetched idea.
It’s the same behavior right now, but if you look at it, it’s like that.
The difference between nobles and commoners is revealed from their behavior.
manners, tone, atmosphere.
From that point of view, the young man in front of him was undoubtedly a commoner.
A commoner is an academy cadet?
It’s an unbelievable story.
‘uh?’
for a moment.
Commoners and academy cadets?
‘No way, he overtook that Rebringer and took the top spot in the swordsmanship club-‘
Elysia, whose accident had gone so far, burst into laughter.
‘Nonsense.’
Who is this stupid man?
Rather, it would be easier to believe that the man in front of him was the son of a great family.
It could really be an academy cadet.
Elysia carefully brought up the story with only that much possibility in mind.
“By the way- you said you wanted to help us, but why…?”
“Ah, nothing else- there’s something we want to solve right now. We think Mr. Daltasian is the right person for that job.”
“Since I have a request for Daltasian, will you help me find Daltasian?”
Bolton interjected and asked.
“Exactly.”
“Huh, what is this-“
Bolton burst out laughing.
There was nothing strange about the young man’s words if you listened roughly, but if you look closely, the cause and effect are somewhere out of sync.
What’s the difference between saying that that thing needs a shovel and helping you dig the ground where the shovel is buried?
“What on earth do you want to entrust to Daltasian?”
Depending on this answer, it depends whether you can ask him for help or not.
It was then that the two of them were nervous and waiting for the young man’s answer.
“Ah~ ah. Wait. Master. Would you like to wait?”
Before I knew it, Margo, who had approached with his gang, called the young man.
“If that’s the case, why don’t you help Daltasian and talk to me without having to do anything?”
While playing cards, Margo heard that the young man might be an academy cadet, and that he wanted to entrust Daltasian with a mission.
“Bocchan, you’re doing this sh*t. I was so excited to mock you earlier.”
Bolton laughed at Margo’s brazen behavior.
“Ah, that’s what you mean.”
“Keoeouk…!”
“100 million!”
Margo’s fists went deep into the stomachs of two of his teammates.
Just now, these two people were blatantly making fun of the young man.
“If you vomit, you will fall behind.”
“Ugh…! Oh, I see.”
“Nothing to say?”
“Bocchan… I’m sorry I just talked nonsense…”
“We didn’t know the precious person and met…”
After punishing the party members like that, Margot then looked at the young man.
-puck!
Then he hit his right face with his fist as hard as he could.
once.
twice.
third time.
The mouth was torn open, and the blood flowed out through the corners of the mouth.
It was as if the scar on the left side of his face, connected to his lips, had been torn.
“We apologize for the rudeness. We dare to meet the precious person.”
In that state, Margot respectfully bowed her head toward the young man.
“…”
From noble mtl dot com
“…”
The expressions of Elysia and Bolton, who had laughed at Bolton’s brazen behavior just before, hardened.
Margot, a former mercenary and now a high-ranking adventurer, apologized savagely, but it was just as strong.
If the young man was looking for Daltasian because he needed the power of violence, he would have gained a lot of interest from Margo with this case.
“Boss. It’s late, but let me introduce myself. I’m Margo. Like the Daltasians, I belong to the District 3 adventurer’s guild. Like the Daltasians, I’m a 5th-class adventurer. Based on my simple experience, I reached level 5 long before the Daltasian did. So, I think I can skip the cumbersome process and help you, Bocchan.”
The reason Margo suddenly became interested in the young man was because he was an academy cadet.
His interest in Daltasian played a bigger role.
Margo, who usually had negative feelings towards Daltasian, wanted to take this opportunity to deny his existence.
to be honest.
I didn’t want to work for such a stupid guy with such a low head.
I couldn’t believe that this idiot was an academy cadet.
But I’m willing to go through it in order to deny that unseemly Daltasian.
When Margo checked the distorted expressions of the two Daltasian colleagues, she smiled contentedly.
Then the man speaks to Margot in a frightened manner.
“Hey, thank you very much for this offer, but I’ve already decided to entrust Mr. Daltasian with the request.”
“What is the content of the request?”
“That’s a bit too much to talk about, so-“
Margot felt annoyed for some reason.
The man’s attitude was so servile and foolish that I thought it would be easy to deal with, but what is this?
Aren’t you good at what you want to say and what you want to say in a servile and servile manner?
“…Don’t be stubborn and leave it to me, can’t you? Am I not trustworthy?”
Margo spoke in an anti-threatening tone, using a violent tone as a last resort.
“Should I say I’m not trustworthy… I’ve heard of Mr. Daltasian, but I haven’t heard of Mr. Margo yet.”
“…What are you doing with this bastard?”
Looking at her servile and sloppy attitude, it seems like she can’t say anything about Margo’s overbearing atmosphere.
In reality, however, it was not enough to just say everything, Margo muttered, finally completely bewildered by the brazenness of the young man who even said something he couldn’t say.
“You bastard! I thought about it earlier, but you’re not even an academy student!?”
In line with Margo’s murmur, his colleague began to quibble at the young man.
“Sometimes there are idiots like you! You swindlers who bought an academy uniform and pretended to be students. Why do you only take off your jacket in this cold weather? It’s so damn expensive and hard to find! Am I wrong, you bastard!?”
At his words, even Elysia and Bolton nodded involuntarily.
surely.
The young man who claims to be an academy cadet is too suspicious even if he is suspicious.
Even though I am an academy cadet, I am also a commoner.
It’s like taking off only the jacket, the most important part of the school uniform, in this cold weather.
For an academy cadet, where only truly gifted people of his age can attend, he is too stupid.
“If you’re an academy student, you must have a student ID, right? Show that.”
The man became impatient and drove the young man away.
A young man who speaks with a troubled face.”
“hahahaha, this. Don’t I look like a student?”
“Sounds obvious.”
The young man took out a black rectangular slab in the shape of a card from his pocket and showed it to them.
The series of processes were carried out without any exaggeration or emphasis.
Is that why?
[Ceylon, the top passer of the Ain Academy entrance exam]
Let’s draw the phrase along with the young man’s face as a blue line dances on the surface of the stone slab that has nothing written on it.
The shock came without warning, so strong that it was no more.
“Ain Academy… the head of the swordsmanship entrance exam…?”
Margot murmured in dismay.
A commoner took the top spot in the academy entrance exam, beating geniuses from great families and gifted children from numerous high-ranking families.
It was a story that was rumored in Arien now.
At first glance, it is treated as the pride of commoners.
the rumored figure.
It was right in front of my eyes.
The person in front of your eyes right now.
He is the person of the rumor.
“hahahaha, this- showing it to others is more embarrassing than I thought? It seems like you’re bragging.”
He still looked dazed.
Such a young man – Ceylon’s appearance, they looked at with a completely different expression.
“uh?”
“that-“
That was then.
Someone entered the Adventurer’s Guild building.
A blunt expression with a sturdy physique.
It was Daltasian.
“Ha, f*ck…”
The moment she saw his expression, Margot sighed with a face filled with disappointment.
From now on, the thought of this man-Ceylon seeing Daltasian and making his face reddened made me feel like I was already getting bored.
“huh?”
Surprisingly, Ceylon’s response was lukewarm.
“Is that Daltasian…?”
He tilted his head at Daltasian.
