Disciple of Immortal

A day after my secret conversation with Cotone, I was on my way to the Adventurer's Guild alongside Pomera and Filia.

I have heard from Cotone that Gannett is in the Adventurer Guild today.

Today is the day I want to talk to you about buying and selling materials from God's Blood Ether.

"... Kanata, what were you talking to Mr. Cotone about yesterday?

"Yes, no, it wasn't a big deal. I was in my hometown, so I just got a little excited."

So deluded, Pomera narrows her eyes in surprise.

"Just a little... it was so long. Pomera, you were so worried.

"And anyway, because he didn't seem like a bad person... I think Mr. Rosmond was just misunderstanding. Mr. Cotone is an oligarchy man."

Shortly after I said so myself, Cotone's appearance to speak out about comic book magazines crossed my mind.

An oligarchy person...... an oligarchy?

"Looks like you got close enough in one day yesterday, so maybe you're certainly not a suspicious person. But Mr. Rosmond also said oh. I think it's dangerous to trust Pomera too much."

Pomera was slightly swollen on her cheeks and looked grumpy.

... there's no reason to be angry either.

I left it for a few hours in that pressing situation, and I was just normally bickering, because it is.

And I can't talk to him on my own, so I'm lying low about Cotone's hobby, but Pomera kind of guessed that I was hiding something.

For Pomera, the reason for being peopled by Cotone remains almost a mystery, and I can't help but create distrust and frustration for me.

"Excuse me... at least I should have contacted Mr. Cotone when I found out he had no hostility"

Pomera bent her mouth to the letter to, speeding up her legs and overtaking me.

"Nothing, I'm not mad! Because there's no reason for Pomera to get mad!

Philia looks up at Pomera's back as she goes ahead.

"... Pomera, I'm mad"

I pulled Philia's hand and chased after Pomera.

I spoke to the staff at the reception about the Adventurer Alliance.

"Is Mr. Gannett here?

"Is it Master Gannett? Master Gannett is a busy person...... Um, do you have an appointment for a visit?

"Ya know what, you need it..."

Gannett is an executive of The Wand of Demonic Silver (Mithrill) and at the same time the guild master of the Adventurer's Alliance.

Someone like the heart of this city of Manarak.

At this rate, it seems difficult in itself to meet, and it might have been better to have Cotone do the taking over.

"Master Gannett is particularly busy today. I have an errand to greet a messenger from Wang Du..."

At that time, from the stairs behind the reception of the Adventurer's Guild, one large man descended at a rolling speed.

It is Gannett.

When Gannett landed on the floor, officials around him were stopping by surprise.

Gannett looks around quickly with his narrowed sharp eyes.

When he discovered me, he had his usual mild grin and came this way as if nothing had happened.

"Oh, this is Lord Canata and holy..."

Gannett almost said Holy Fist as much as he wanted, but when he looked at Pomera's vertigo, he coughed up with Goho.

"... to Lord Pomera, Lord Filia"

The look on Pomera's face came back to normal.

This guy, in an instant, found out that Pomera hated being treated like a holy fist, and came out to rephrase.

Terribly high interpersonal skills.

"Duh, thank you, Mr. Gannett..."

"The amount of Jade Dragon's Eye that I was asked to do before was somehow available, so I was going to report it from Noh."

"Dear Gannett, don't you have important business to do after this...?

Officials block Gannett's words.

Gannett pushed the staff away with his palms.

"I know! We still have time!

... Ho, are you sure you're glad you're here now?

"Um, I don't mind later..."

"No, no, Lord Canata. Don't worry, it's not a big deal."

I think I heard that he was a messenger from Wang Du or something...

Isn't it important?

Gannett told me to go to the staff room in the back of the reception.

"Gannett's mustache, funny!

As always, Phyllia is touching Gannett's hand properly.

"Phi, Philia, because that's really rude!

As I stopped, Gannett kept his head down so that Philia could easily touch it.

"Ho, Lord Philia, you can cut it off and take it home if you like with your grandfather's beard like this."

"... Are you really glad Mr. Gannett took the time...?

Pomera asks me anxiously.

I'm only anxious, too, but I can't say no now.

Let's get this over with as briefly as possible so Gannett can work on his original plans.

"Um, Mr. Gannett... I actually had more than one extra thing I wanted to get, and I was wondering if you could somehow collect this one, if possible."

"What, did you get extra...? I see..."

Gannett's smile slightly attracted him.

"... I knew you were busy, right?

"Yes, no! Oh, as long as you have time! No matter how many dragon eyes these gannets are, make sure you get them and show them! Name the total power of the Mithril Wand!

Gannett let his arms force him and proclaimed so aloud.

... or, after all, he seemed to have put a considerable strain on getting a few of the Emerald Dragon's Eyes collected.

However, it is not a Class B item like "Emerald Dragon's Eye" that you will be asked to collect this time.

It's for fine-tuning, and it's just items below grade C.

"It's what's on this list..."

Pass the paper.

Gannett runs his eyes quickly on paper and soothes his expression.

"Great...... this, you won't have to take the time to get it. Most of the stuff is going to be in manalac, so let your people collect it."

That's what Gannett said as a heartfelt relief.

I just clouded my expression along the way.

"... but when I say" Emerald Dragon Eyes, "you have a lot of orders. And the combination... is that, is it kind of ominous? Lord Kanata... What the hell are you building here?

"Should I tell you something?"

I learned to tense my own face.

God's Blood Ether seems better if I don't honestly tell him what I think.

"No, not at all! You've done an extra pry."

Gannett immediately put an end to his doubts.

I always thought this guy was too good to tell things.

"I'm just anxious to see if I can afford this extra."

"You don't have to worry about it, Lord Canata. Lily the Demon King's crusade reward paid to Lord Pomera was forty million gold. But this is a pretty low one, given Lily's estimated level of 400 and the scale of damage that would have extended to Manarak...... Assuming Lily the Demon was known to exist after the damage, there would have been assistance from the royal family and the crusade reward would have amounted to a billion gold."

"Ju, billion!?

I answered my voice unexpectedly.

A level 400 demon king, could he have been paid a billion gold as well?

"Yeah, yeah. It is also painful to pay for The Eyes of the Emerald Dragon. So if you don't mind fine bills etc."

... or Lily is not the Demon King.

Lily was the youngest daughter of the Mother Four sisters, with Marie the Third, Mary the Second, and Dory the First.

And the Demon King Mother was near level 1,000.

"... were those guys that bad?

I leaked like that while pressing my mouth.

"What is it, Lord Canata?

"Yes, no, nothing"

But even though they might have paid billions of gold, that's only a case of the royal family taking a heavy look at things.

It didn't actually happen.

I don't want to imitate it as sweet and unilaterally burdensome on Gannett.

That's what I thought, and the Spirit Tree Shizuku thing passed my head.

After all, let's see if you can buy some of this out.
