Chapter 47
The conversation with Ragnis that followed was normal.
What are you studying in between? Your magical achievement is so fast that Radnell Vandes is beyond satisfied with it. Most of the questions were, though.
In fact, I’m not the type to live spectacularly every day, so even though I didn’t have much to say, Ragnis was quite persistent and enthusiastic about my daily life.
To be honest, I was a little scared.
“Anyway, you mean I don’t have anything else to prepare?” After an interrogation-like daily conversation, I thought I would have to go to the
guild, so when I asked to check it out, Ragnis nodded with a satisfied face.
I want you to move with matching equipment and clothes.”
“They feed, sleep, and clothe you for free, but there’s nothing difficult about it.”
It’s not even the military.
Anyway, since I was in the position of personal escort for the Marquis, no one could tackle me or pamper me. It’s like going on a trip. Still, I’m going to a place called the heart of the Empire, so what’s the threat?
……If you reacted complacently like this until now, it seems that incidents continued to happen, but it won’t be like this time.
“Then, when a specific schedule is set, I’ll send someone to Ogatorp Street.”
I left the mansion, leaving behind Ragnis, who was reluctant to see me off because there were servants. It was inevitable because it had already changed a lot from when we first came to the capital.
By the time they returned to the guild, recovering the equipment they had left behind and purchasing additional items, it was already around the time the sunset and night began to fall. When the guild arrived just in time for the guild to start working on the restaurant after putting aside its normal commissioning duties, Engrim came out and greeted it as if it had been waiting for it.
“You’ve come at just the right time.”
“From what you’re saying, I guess I’m not the first to arrive?”
“Haha. That’s right. Rather, it’s the last time. I just said the perfect time because the meal was just finished.”
I don’t know if it’s because he’s simply being sincere or because he just made an appointment, so I don’t know if he’s been sitting in the guild all day, but since I wasn’t late, I nodded without hesitation and followed him in.
At first, I thought that we wouldn’t talk in such a public place, but seeing the noisy lobby in the lobby, I thought that it would be natural to have a conversation here and keep it a secret. It is clear that after a little more time, it will become so noisy that even having a conversation with the person next to you will be difficult.
If you really want to hide a tree, hide it in the forest. Since I don’t come to the guild very often at this time, I couldn’t imagine it would be this much, so I was quite surprised, but Engrim gave me a further explanation to see if he noticed me.
“It’s true that it’s louder than usual. I did some discounts.”
Looking around in admiration, I could see that alcohol and food were sold at almost half the price than usual. I wonder if it’s right to ask me, who is only green, to solve such a serious problem, but that’s the decision made by Engrim himself, so I decided not to get involved.
Actually, my skills aren’t the only ones, and I’ll be able to take care of my body somehow.
“Hey, guild leader. You came just in time… What is it? Was the last member a mad dog?”
A blond female warrior with bursting muscles twitching under her leather armor reacted as soon as she saw Engrim. Looking at the table she was at, there were two men and one woman besides her. Each of them had a unique look, but in the end, they couldn’t appeal their presence as much as the female warriors who reacted to us.
As soon as I saw the female warrior, I doubted whether it was the blood of Radnell Vandes or not. I was no longer short, but I could see that when I woke up, I would be a little taller than myself. Even so, her face is plump and pretty, so it’s really no joke.
Such a cute face on a body that looks like muscles will rise at the tip of the chin if you clench your teeth. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that he ripped out a cartoon.
“Isn’t mad dog green? I don’t doubt the guild leader’s eyes, but it’s quite surprising.”
The bald-headed man sitting across from her, tilting his glass first, smiled with rich emotion on his sharp face. The others didn’t say much, but had similar reactions, and Engrim laughed and pulled out a chair to make it easier for me to sit.
“There was a request to be sure of his skills this time. There should be no problem.”
“Hahaha! I don’t doubt that. Ah, Mad Dog already means that it’s great that you’ve been able to stand out that much, so don’t take it too badly. It’s a compliment if you insist.”
I just laughed along, feeling as if the wind was blowing in the hands of the female warrior who seemed to be laughing cheerfully. I don’t really know all of them, but they all seem to know me, so it was hard to react differently because it was already a distraction.
Have I really established myself as a mad dog? It’s a level where they call you by name instead.
“That friend has a name, but wouldn’t it be a bit odd to keep calling her by that nickname, Ekaterina?”
When a man boasting of his rich beard and hair beside his bald head gave a hint of warning in a voice that matched his appearance, the female warrior cutely opened her eyes round and said in a panic.
“Uh uh uh? Is that so? Is that so? I’m sorry for this! I thought I got this name because I had a presence after all, so I thought anything would be good. It must have been rude.”
Apparently, he was a foreigner, not a direct descendant of Radnell Vandes. An impressive woman with bobbed dark purple hair sitting next to her added a comment.
“Ekatrina is from Lovell. She’s a little weak in this area, so don’t worry too much, Mr. Ega.”
No, really, I don’t know them, and everyone seems to know me. It was a completely unexpected situation, so I decided to cut it straight before going deeper into the conversation.
“It’s okay because it’s really nothing. Personally, I don’t know you guys, but you know me, and this situation is getting more serious, so I hope someone can explain.”
In fact, that ‘who’ had already been decided, so I looked at Engrim. Then Engrim, who had just sat down and quenched his thirst, answered with a shy smile.
“I’ll tell you in advance, but I’ve never spoken to these people. You know from Ekaterina’s reaction.”
“I don’t intend to make a book with it, so please order me a full voice. I’ll listen to it while eating.”
I was also hungry, so I grabbed the turkey leg and started eating among the food on the table, and the others smiled and started eating.
Ekaterina, as the bobbed hair said, was a warrior from Lovell. Unlike their pretty faces, the majestic skeleton and muscles are the characteristics of the people of Lovell, so it seems to be a country of warriors. He is a young level adventurer who uses a huge warhammer suitable for his size as if he were wielding a wooden stick, so he must be able to use Auras without difficulty.
The bobbed-haired woman was a sorceress named Rellie. I thought I was from the upper class because he naturally called me by my last name, not my first name… I don’t know if he’s hiding it or not, but he says he doesn’t have a last name. Likewise, he was a high-level wizard who was classified as a ‘star-bearer’ even though he was a blue-collar adventurer.
I’m also a guy who can only use magic to the extent of lighting a bonfire, so I didn’t pay much attention to it.
I just remembered it as a title for a concept like a circle that I often see in fantasy novels, so I don’t know what level it is in detail, but I know it’s like a kind of qualification. Still, I knew that it was normal to be recognized at the upper level, the purple level, but seeing that he has already stood out, it seems that he is also a genius.
The hairy man was a young adventurer with a short name of Gin. I thought he had a body type that would make me believe that he was a dwarf, but he was a man with a twist that he was a real dwarf. At first glance, he looked like a short human, enough to be considered a giant among the dwarves.
But most of all, it was the bald man who was the real one.
The nickname of this bald man who identified himself as Gaendal was Weapon Master.
“Other people are surprisingly amazing, but Mr. Gaendal is one more drink.”
“It’s just that the people around me just called it, and it somehow hardened into a tinnitus. It’s not a great skill.”
Even if he said that, it was clear that he knew how to use all kinds of weapons that he could hold, so it was certain that he had skills that matched his nickname. Although he is still in the cheong-level, it is said that it is simply because of his lack of performance, not his lack of skills. After hearing all this, I feel very normal.
Anyway, by the time I came back to introduce myself, we had become close to the level of having a meal together and talking comfortably.
“And as everyone already knows, this is Mr. Eldmia Ega. Generally, they are called mad dogs…” “Ah
. Those with some skills call them lightsabers, right?”
“Eh? What?”
what sword? lightsaber?
“Hmm. It’s famous even among wizards. It’s not magic, but it uses magic-like swordsmanship.”
Even Rellie nodded as if she knew, and I was speechless at the sight of no one refuting it.
What? Why am I the only one who doesn’t know my name?
