“…a hero?”
When I introduced myself as a hero, the little boy asked with round eyes.
“Yeah, just be aware of that.”
“…yes!”
Because she was so cute, my dad smiled and stroked his hair, and the information search system I had activated showed her information in front of my eyes.
And as soon as I saw the window, I frowned.
[Name: Glare]
[Ability: Strength 1 / Magic Power ??? / Intelligence 5 / Spirit 6]
[Speciality: Mysterious Potential ]
[Orientation: Pure ]
‘…Is it fashionable to have question marks on information windows these days?’
I was confused for a while by the question mark that appeared again, and only then did I find out the reason for the question mark by looking at her peculiarities.
‘…this little boy was a gemstone.’
According to the words of our ancestors left in the prophetic books, the ‘questionable potential’ trait is a trait that appears in young children with a very low probability.
If there is any chance, that characteristic blooms and blooms with a powerful ability.
Of course, there is no way to know whether the trait exists or not unless there is a system, so most children with that trait can’t flower, but the kid in front of me seems to be lucky.
‘This little boy’s magic is a question mark… Maybe he has a strong magical talent?’
I opened the item shop window to give the last present before breaking up with the little boy, but then I shook my head and sighed.
– Flask of Potential LV1 700pt
Description) This mysterious potion can also unlock the potential of the opponent you drink. (purchase limit 0/1)
‘…that’s right, can you only buy this once?’
In order to save Kania, whose curse is rapidly deteriorating, it is necessary to feed her ‘Elixir of Potential’ to her younger sister to quickly awaken her healing abilities.
So… I’m sorry, but I don’t think I can give this cute little boy an elixir of potential.
“…children.”
“yes?”
“From now on, listen carefully to what your brother has to say.”
“…Yep!”
Unfortunately, I tried to increase the possibility of her ability to bloom by alluding to her about the ‘questionable potential’, but…
[Congratulations! You have successfully cleared ＜Unexpected Quest: Rescue the Little Boy>!]
[As a reward, you can choose one of the following three items!]
Once again, the list of rewards appeared with the system window in front of me, and I shut my mouth for a moment and began to stare at the list.
1. False evil points 500pt
2. 150 gold coins
3. Lucky Ring
.
.
.
.
.
‘…Lucky Ring?’
There was an item with a name that drew a lot of attention in the 3rd reward, so without realizing it, when I put my hand on it, the description of the item began to appear in front of my eyes.
– Lucky Ring
Description) Might bring good luck to the wearer…?
As I stared at the item that had a questionable effect on the reward topic, I immediately fell into thought.
‘…Still, this ring is worth 500 pt of false evil points and 150 gold, right?’
I’m in a hurry to get a false evil point right now, but I’ve been working hard on false evil lately, so I have a little bit of room.
And, there’s still plenty of gold. Today, I brought all my fortune to secure the ‘item’… 150 gold is not a lot of money to me in the first place.
Then, all that’s left is this mysterious ring… How about giving it to the kid as a gift?
Although it is not possible to give the ‘Potion of Potential’ as a gift… Although it is a bit suspicious, if you give her a lucky ring as a ‘clear reward’, it may bring good luck to her as described.
And if that good fortune becomes an opportunity to awaken the ‘questionable potential’… there is no gift that is more satisfying than that.
“…here, hero?”
“yes?”
“What are you trying to say?”
“Oh, sorry. I kept you waiting.”
“Oh no! I wasn’t bored at all!”
“Didn’t I ever ask you if you were bored?”
“…Ugh.”
The little boy who was stabbed by my words opened his mouth and slowly turned his gaze to the side.
I laughed out loud at that cute appearance, and after choosing the 3rd reward, the Lucky Ring, as a clear reward, I gave it to the little boy.
“…Now, a present.”
“Again, again?!
“So, you don’t have to pay it back?”
“Uh, my mother said that if I owe a debt, I must pay it back…”
As I was about to ask where my mother was now at her gloomy words, I remembered why the children wandering around the market had been abandoned here.
Clearly, this little boy must have been abandoned by his mother, who could not stand it, or had left his mother’s side to beg on the street of the market.
So, let’s not touch that trauma again.
“Then, when I become famous later, I will come and pay you back.”
“…if you become famous?”
“Yes, soon the time will come when the whole empire will praise the hero’s name. If you want to pay it back, then pay it back.”
“Yes, yes!! I will definitely go back and pay off the debt no matter what!!”
“No, I can’t afford to pay it back, so don’t overdo it…”
“…Yes, yes.”
“Then, can I get a present now? Come on, give me your hand.”
The little boy hesitated when I asked him to reach out his hand, but then he cautiously reached out.
After staring at her skinny hand for a moment because she couldn’t eat, I carefully put the ring on her skinny finger so that she wouldn’t get hurt and started talking.
“…this is a lucky ring.”
“…Lucky, a ring?”
“Yeah, if you keep wearing it… you’ll get lucky sooner or later.”
“Gee, really?”
When I asked her with her eyes wide open, I answered in a confident voice.
“Then, I’m sure it’s me, the hero. So, keep wearing it from now on.”
Hearing my confident words, the girl, who was looking at the ring on her finger, immediately tilted her head and asked a question.
“Hey… don’t you need more of this from the hero?”
“yes?”
“If you’re a hero… you’ll have to fight bad people… don’t you need luck?”
To that, I answered with a liberated expression on my face.
“It’s okay because I’m a bad person.”
“…yes?”
“Oh, no… I do a lot of these things. You know I have a lot of money, right? So you don’t have to worry about it.”
Hearing this, the little boy quietly nodded, and after stroking her hair gently one last time, I headed towards the exit of the bar and gave my last advice.
“And, you have a talent for magic.”
“…Me?”
“Yeah, that’s a very good talent too. So, after you’ve healed your brother and saved a house, let’s work hard to learn magic.”
“…I, can I do well?”
The little boy hurriedly asked the last question from behind me, who went out completely, and I also gave her the last answer.
“Yeah, I assure you as a hero. You’ll be fine.”
“……!”
“Then, be well.”
With those words, I started to rush my steps to return to the plan I had originally made, leaving behind my short relationship in the back alley.
.
.
.
After staring blankly at Frey’s back, which was getting farther and farther away, the wandering girl, Glair, began to mutter quietly as he disappeared completely from sight.
“…I had a talent for magic.”
Saying so, she began to caress the ring on her finger, which was given to her as a gift by her savior, the hero.
“I’ll do my best. Hero.”
Then, the girl who stopped caressing the ring for a moment took it out of her finger carefully to avoid damaging the ring.
“Working hard…”

Eventually, she began to put the ring back on the ring finger of her left hand.
“…if I become famous, I will definitely go to pay off my debt.”
He smiled slightly and ended the conversation.
“…Iza, would it be okay if I replaced him?”
A faint light was emanating from her body.
It was the moment when a new turning point was engraved on the world line that neither the previous warriors nor Frey nor even the system expected.
.
.
.
.
.
“Fray!! Where the hell have you been?!”
“…I came here to get some air.”
“gibberish!!”
I’m scolding Isolet right now.
Because he had been neglecting her for a long time.
The truth is that the system receives a quest to save the world, attacks the illegal traffickers, removes the succubus queen, the henchman of the demon king, and frees all the kidnapped women and children. will be.
“Really, you are…!”
“Why are you worried?”
“…Shut up. I’m not in the mood to play with you right now.”
“Huh… you’re young?”
I stared at Isolet, who spoke dishonestly, then turned my attention to the dying voice from behind.
“It’s a good time… a good time…”
The store owner, who was lying on the floor and speaking in a dying voice, looked at me and started talking with a smirk on his face.
“So who is that wife?”
“…Academy professor.”
“Oh, it’s forbidden love. But the more you do it, the more… Khuh!”
The owner, who was still talking while dying, eventually got hit in the head by Isolet’s sheath and drooped.
“…you didn’t kill him, did you?”
“…stunned for a while.”
“Isn’t that over-repression?”
“…it was a fair move.”
The moment Isolet gave a cold reply, the magic tool shop that had survived even the rescue collapsed.
After staring at the owner for a moment, who had suddenly become homeless, I realized that Isolet’s cold eyes were still on me.
“…Tell me where you’ve been, Frey.”
“Well, did you come here to get some air?”
“If you don’t, I’ll tell your father about the brooch.”
“…it’s a shame.”
As I muttered with a frown on my face, Isolette said with a stern expression on her face.
“You’d better tell the truth. I can tell with your eyes closed whether you’re telling the truth or a lie.”
“…Okay, I’ll see.”
With a face that I couldn’t help it, I began to tell her the scenario I had prepared in advance.
“Actually, I’ve been to the information guild…”
“Information Guild?”
“Yeah, a place to buy and sell information. There are places that are legal, but the information guild in the back alleys has the most information.”
“…So, what information did you get?”
“Uh… Today, the biggest auction house held once a year is held in a back alley… I got information that there could be a terrorist attack there.”
“…What?”
When she opened her eyes at the word terror, I smiled inside and began to flesh the horse.
“No, I have a lot of money, right? That’s why I asked for the most advanced information you have. Every piece of information like that is a weapon.”
“therefore?”
“By the way, what is the best information about this? The auction house opened in less than a few minutes… It was a total waste of money.”
After hearing my words, Isolet said with an absurd expression on her face.
“Terrorism can happen and people can die… Are you regretting that you lost money now?”
“They blew 11 bags of gold coins! How serious is this…”
“Okay, tell me the location of the auction house right now. You’re leaving this place.”
“What is it that worries me…”
“Fray!!!”
I paused for a moment at her shout, then I scratched my head and opened my mouth again.
“…No, but there must be nothing you can do if you go?”
“What do you mean?”
“There is a powerful magic that can only be entered by those with a pass. How long will it take even if the imperial wizards come to dismantle it?”
“Ugh…”
At those words, Isolet quietly began to bite her lip. Realizing that she was on the verge of falling over, I started acting for the last time to strike a wedge.
“…Ah! Come to think of it, there is one way to get in…”
“Hey, what is that?”
When she asked the question urgently, I answered calmly.
“Me and Nu… the professor is going to be a lover.”
And when those words were finished, there was a moment of silence between the two of us.
– Sureung…
“Wait, wait! It’s not a joke, it’s real! It’s real!!”
As soon as she slowly drew her sword in the silence, I stepped back and spoke urgently.
“…Explain.”
Then she put the knife back into its sheath and opened her mouth, and I sighed in relief and began to speak.
“So, actually, I have a pass.”
“Okay. Give it to me right now.”
“It’s no use taking it. The pass can only be used by you.”
I continued speaking with a smirk at Isolet.
“However, if we register the two of us as lovers or husband and wife in the auction house system, the two of us can enter together.”
“…Isn’t the system too weak for a tight security?”
“It’s not because they get a pass, but only those who have proven families, even those with wealth and honor, so they’re given such a privilege.”
“……..”
“In other words, if you want to go to the auction house, you have to pretend to be a lover with me inside the auction house. Otherwise, you will be suspicious.”
I smiled at Isolet, who suddenly started blushing due to the onset of a chronic illness, and threw a few words at her.
“Then, please take care of me, Isolet.”
And the next moment I was hit hard in the head by Isolet with a scabbard.
.
.
.
.
.
“Register Frey Raon Starlight and Isolet Arham Bywalk as lovers.”
“…that’s amazing. Did you finally make peace?”
“Just sell it to the intelligence guild and get rid of it, the next day our duke will drive you underground.”
“I don’t think I’m joking, I’m afraid. Go in.”
Arham Bywalk and I, who passed the manager safely, entered the auction house wearing the black robe we had brought in advance and the mask the person in charge gave us.
“…Ko, do we have to have our arms crossed like this?”
“Look at how the guys who came in in pairs are doing… They’re hugging them.”
“Ugh…”
Seeing the couple’s affectionate behavior, Isolet made a sound of pain and struggled to avert her gaze.
“…it’s too stiff, try to fold your arms naturally.”
“…Cuck it, don’t you know if you’ve tried it?”
“…ha.”
So I took a seat in the auction house, feeling like I was wearing a hard piece of wood on my side, and started looking at the people inside.
Of course, people were hiding in black robes and masks, but my information search skill doesn’t take issue with that.
‘…to the Count, to the Elder Matap, to the person in charge of the imperial finances… The key figures of the Empire have gathered in one place.’
Quietly scanning the auction house, I found out that the people of the Empire were congregating in this narrow auction house, and I laughed and muttered to myself.
‘Well, the item I’m aiming for is of little known value at this point… But what’s important is an external competitor, not an internal competitor.’
I brought Isolet here today to prevent the demon king’s troops from attacking me for the items I’m looking for sooner or later.
I’m going to die hard these days, but if I write my ‘Blessing of the Stars’ here, I may suddenly die of death.
This is because the demon king’s army, which will soon attack this place, is not a small group like before, but a large quantity, so it consumes a lot of power.
Of course, since it’s a lot of money, Isolette can easily handle it, so I easily secure ‘items’ while she is dealing with terrorism.
If you secure the item like that, you can surely secure the ‘People’s Dormitory Attack’…
“…uh!?”
“Huh!”
I was startled when I found someone while searching for people, and when I screamed, Isolette, who had been stiffened next to me, screamed a strange scream.
“”………””
As a result, the people in the auction house began to look at us quietly, and Isolette and I had no choice but to bow our heads for a while.
“… the hell, why is that?”
“………”

Eventually, Isolette whispered to me in a resentful voice, but I ignored her and grabbed her head with a bewildered expression on her face.
‘…Why is Kania here?’
I don’t know why, but Kania’s information came to mind when I saw the person sitting next to Isolet.
I wished it was the same person, but the figures and peculiarities were the same. How the hell did this happen?
“…!”
I was so tired that I wondered if I had seen something in vain, so I looked up to check the information again, but this time the information about Saint Perloche came to mind from the person sitting in front of me.
“…Wait a minute, take a seat.”
“…Ah, yes. I see…!”
I was staring blankly at the information, and the moment I saw someone trying to sit next to me, pulling my body to the side and looking at him, this time, information about Princess Clana came to my mind.
“…Do you have any problem?”
“…No, no.”
I hurriedly gave an answer to the princess who asked a question while tilting her head, and then I looked at Isolet, who looked at me with bewildered eyes, and then looked at the main heroines who appeared in the auction house once, and muttered inwardly.
‘…….A real dog prank.’
