Count Scribe's Tutor

Chapter 43. Detection (3)

A maze of winding paths.

Ferda passes through the Dark Elves in the middle, finally arriving at the Information Guild headquarters. When I opened the squeaking door, there was a view that I could not easily see.

“Oh! Welcome home, Eun Gong. ”

The bear leaning sideways on the bed smiles brightly. I was happy to greet my old friend.

I was momentarily embarrassed by the strange appearance.

“I can't thank you enough for yesterday's disappearance. Thank you so much."

The bear grins with yellow fangs.

Then he stretches his front foot towards Ferda.

“Howard Littman. ”

Seeing that he reached out with his introduction, he seemed to ask for a handshake. But how do I get my hands on that front foot? Ferda hesitates for a moment and shakes her hand by holding her claws slightly.

“What is the honor of silver? ”

Howard asks for Ferda's name.

Come to think of it, I haven't told him his name yet. Ferda mentioned this and immediately opened her mouth.

“Grey Jean. ”

A pseudonym Yoo Baek Hyun used to defeat the Dark Ages.

I was too tired to think of a new name, so I just decided to use it. Meanwhile, Howard, who heard Ferda's pseudonym, asked with a glare.

“Oh, can I call you Grey Ball then? ”

“Call me whatever you want. I have more questions than that. ”

Greetings and names are enough.

Ferda gets right to the point.

“We know this organization is a place for information. Is that correct?"

“Yes, it is. It's called Ragny." ”

An information guild active in the Southern Capital Node, Ragni.

Throughout the kingdom, Ragney was the only one buying and selling information. That's why in the past, even nobles sometimes used to contact Ragni to buy information.

“Up until three years ago, it was the largest organization in the capital. ”

Howard's voice is full of pride.

A large organization with over 300 members. An organization that contracted mercenaries there, and also branched beyond the South and West.

That was Ragney.

“But now it's all the glory of the past. ”

Howard grins bitterly.

Since the time the princes began to meddle in the darkness, Ragnar's fall has been planned. The mercenaries who didn't want to be involved in the royal struggle left Ragini and were burned down by Lekka and Ersen.

“The princes were trying to get information about each other. That's why they wanted us to compete. ”

That way, Ragnar falls quickly.

It was hard to defeat the Knights, even if they were defeated by the Dark Ones.

“The gang is scattered. Those who remained were either dead or sold. And right now, all that's left is me and Kalman. ”

It was really dark when I heard it.

Only two out of 300 remain.

“Apologies to Eunuch, but Ragni is already finished. We need people to collect information, but not the most important. ”

When Howard blurred his words with his dark face.

Ferda asks the big question.

“I heard some members of the organization were sold out earlier. Where did they go?”

“The Ruchemble slave market. ”

The answer came from the wrong place. From Calman Sid, the grave boy who was looking after Howard. He blinked his eyes and said.

“I heard from the assassins. I sold my brothers there. ”

Kalman clenches his fist tightly since he was angry.

Meanwhile, Ferda glared at the word slave market. Because one day I had to find the slave market.

The reason was simple.

‘Mercedes Om. ’

Along with Kalman, Yoo Baek Hyun mentioned one of the three talents.

It was because he was the slave market.

Yoo Baek Hyun adds this story about the Mercedes Ohm.

If you have to choose only one out of the three, do not hesitate to pick a Meshed Om. The other guys are just as useful as they are.Mercedes Ohm is an indispensable talent.

Essential talent that cannot be replaced.

Yoo Baek hyun defined Meshed Ohm that way. It was the same idea, Ferda. He had tremendous ability to do the same for Mercedes Om.

‘It's a little early, but just in time. ’

In the eighth round, Merced Ohm said it had not been sold for two months. And now it's about the eighth and a month apart, so you can definitely find Mercedes Ohm in the market.

‘I think it's best to get it now. ’

Ferda smiles lightly after finishing her thoughts.

But for a moment, he returns to his expressionless face and looks back at Kalman and talks.

“I heard the slave market isn't open every day. ”

“That's right. It's open quite often, though. ”

“And what is the fastest day? ”

“Tomorrow at noon. ”

The timing was also very good.

‘We promised to go out tomorrow anyway. ’

It wouldn't be bad to stop by the slave market.

Ferda makes her decision immediately.

“Do you know the location of the slave market? ”

“Yes, but there is one problem. ”

“Problem?”

As soon as I tilted my head, the answer came straight back.

“When entering, check your identity thoroughly. ”

“To be more precise, only nobles can enter. ”

Howard explained in more detail.

But it wasn't a big deal for Ferda.

“It doesn't matter. I have a solution.”

After a blunt response, I look back at Kalman.

“We need Kalman, the location and entry of the slave market, and a list of the organizations sold. ”

“Yes! I'll fill it out and get it to you! ”

Karlman leaps out of his room coldly, answering. I felt empowered to think I might be able to save my brothers. Meanwhile, Ferda looks back at Howard and says,

“And I want to get some information. ”

“If there's any information left, I'll give you anything.”

I really like the cooperative posture.

Ferda smiles and asks.

“Which prince or prince of the two has the most money? ”

“A wealthy nobleman? Well, that's about it, but... ”

A blurry face, Howard.

After a while, I was curious about the eyes of Zachman, like a guava egg.

“May I ask why? ”

“I was originally going to overthrow the slave market. ”

I asked him why, and all of a sudden, an unpleasant answer returned. As Howard's eyes widen, Ferda boldly said.

“But I changed my mind. ”

You'd better leave the slave market alone for a while.

Only then will it be easier to find talented xenogens.

“So for the time being, I'm going to follow the market rules. ”

It means they will pay for slaves.

Howard nods as if he understood.

“I see. But what does that have to do with a wealthy nobleman? ”

“I care a lot. You need money to buy things in the marketplace. ”

Howard's eyes widen in response.

Then I felt like Ferda had a sense of what to do.

“Don't tell me Eun Gong is trying to do something! ”

“Oh, I wish I could tell you about a few. ”

Ferda got up from her seat.

He grins with a black mask around his mouth.

“The more money, the better. ”

* * *

Meanwhile, not long after Ferda left.

Damien calms the surprised chest as he catches his breath.

When I punched through the table with my fork, I was choked. I thought that fork would get stuck in his head if he did something wrong. But over time, I felt a little better.

“Hmmm! Then I'll start class again. ”

So I took out a short cough and stroked my voice.

Then I tried to finish the class.

“How to use a knife first · · · · · · · ·. ”

“Did you say Damien? ”

But then, I heard the real voice of the stars.

Damien looks at the realm in mysterious ways. It was because his voice sounded so cool even though he was still in the middle of the class.

But when I looked closely, my voice was not the only voice. The golden eyes were frozen like ice.

“How do you think you fooled me, but you thought you could fool my eyes? ”

“Yes?”

“Of course, you probably didn't notice because you don't know much about magic. I wouldn't have known if I hadn't looked so carefully. ”

“What does that mean · · · · · · · · · · · · ·. Knng!”

While tilting your head at a sudden horse, the starfish snatches his collar. Somewhat strong for a young boy in his early teens. Moreover, Damien is dragged away without resisting due to a sudden attack.

“In this tie. ”

“ · · · · · ·! ”

“Only this has a subtle sequence of magical forces. ”

Ends with a confident voice.

In reality, he grabbed the knife that was on the table.

“So if you split this up, ”

The knot side of the tie was cut as it was. Then a white marble fell out of the ground. A orb that looks like a magical mass.

It was the Watcher's Eye.

The reality of discovering it became colder.

“I don't know anything! ”

Then, Damien protested as if it were unfair. He shouts, shaking his halved tie with a reflected face.

“This tie was given to me by Prince Beinar. ”

“That's not all. ”

He stabs him in the chest with his fingers.

“Here. There's another one in your body. ”

“· · · · · · · Yes? ”

Damien asking with a blank face.

A moment later, he opens his eyes as if he had remembered something.

“Stop, you didn't give me candy back then. Knng! Uwaeeeeek! ”

But Damien couldn't go through with the recollection. It was because the reality of the star punched him hard between his mark and his abdomen. Along with the nausea, yellow gastric fluid gushed to the floor.

Tuk

A white orb that came out straight away.

It was a Watcher's Eye, like the one from the knot of a tie.

“The teacher said, ”

Damien's eyes trembled violently.

The real eyes faced this way were dull and dry.

“Never leave anything behind. So I was supposed to deal with you right after he left. ”

“It's all Sherrick's doing! ”

Damien screams.

“I don't know anything! Really, please believe me! I'm just here to teach manners. ”

A sharp knife flew in.

Qajik!

The knife slaps his cheek against the wall.

A thin bloodstream that flows as a red line emerges.

“Shut up. I'm not finished with you yet. ”

The rope growls ferociously.

After retrieving the knife, he goes on speaking.

“Anyway, I was just going to take care of it, so you can't learn the manners, right? So I'm just gonna keep him alive for now. ”

In the last words, Damien is exhausted. It was because I was relieved to have her alive for a while. But the truth is not yet finished.

“Instead, I want to hear that it's insurance. ”

“Insurance · · · · · · · · · · ·? ”

“I'm talking about this. ”

The thread reaches for the air. It was like catching something that was floating in the air. After several repetitions, I suddenly bashed Damien's head in.

Puck!

“Unh!”

I felt intense pain, but it didn't hurt that much.

After a while, a strange phenomenon occurred.

“Huff! Uhh! What is this? ”

My body was strange.

I felt like I had to wear something that didn't fit.

My heart was stuffy and my head was dizzy. Immediately, I started hearing strange chatter in my head. When I was experiencing hallucinations and hallucinations, the reality was brief.

“I planted a ghost in you. About five. ”

As Damien's eyes grew bigger and bigger in unexpected words.

A sudden headburst of pain struck him.

“Aah! Shhh! ”

“My head is going to break right now. There are six souls in one body. But this way... ”

The knob flicks its finger lightly.

And then, surprisingly, the pain that plagued him went away.

“Much better, right? ”

Damien, sitting on his knees, trembles.

It was truly terrible pain. I don't want to go through it again. The moment he was slightly frightened in his eyes, the reality ricocheted his fingers again.

“Now I can just flick my fingers. ”

“Huff! Uhhh! ”

“I can cause you pain, or I can take it. ”

“Ugh! Ugh, ugh. ”

“Of course, it's possible to take a life. ”

The pale bored face is covered with perfect horror.

His eyes are filled with despair. Sweat and tears poured down like crazy, but I couldn't even wipe my thumb. After trembling for a long time, Damien cautiously asked with a dazzled face.

“W-what do you want from me? ”

“Don't do anything stupid, just teach me some manners. And if he asks you something later, don't yell at him. ”

“Th-that's it? ”

“One more thing. What happened today, don't tell the teacher. Okay?"

Damien nods crazily.

Then I looked at the reality with my desperate eyes. I'll do as you say, so please don't flick your fingers. Fortunately, the truth didn't seem to bother him any more.

“Okay. Here, take it. ”

He pulls the knife from the wall and hands it to Damien.

Damien suddenly accepts this, dumbfounded.

“Yi, is this · · · · · · · · · · · ·? ”

“You said you'd teach me how to use a knife. ”

Along with that, reality returned to its original position. He then picked up a fork and knife and said, as he had learned from Damien.

“What are you doing? Sit down quickly. I have to study.”

He looks at Damien sitting on the floor and smiles brightly.

As if nothing had happened.
