Marquis' Express Butler

206. Hunting predators (1)

I turned into Soohyun and headed to Mathis.

I almost forgot to wear cotton wool. It was due to a double identity exposure to Confucius Hamel.

You should be careful because there aren't many people at Mattis headquarters who know about my double identity yet.

Especially for Calmond, who has sworn once in the past. It won't be too late to make a connection first.

“Master!”

Two young men guarding the door welcomed me.

“Haffnell, and Marmond. How are you?”

“Do you remember our names? ”

“Oh, my God! ”

They're the end of Mathis, but they're good. That's why we're guarding the front door.

I remember the names of those ends for two reasons. To raise the loyalty of employees and it's easy to remember.

Using a small amount of Mana doesn't put a man's name on his head.

I laughed bloody.

“He's your boss. You don't know his name. Has everything been okay? ”

“We're doing well. Welcome, Master. I'll take you inside!”

“Yes."

I went up to the Master Room with loyal staff greetings.

The inside is full of happy faces.

Calmond and Spinel sit together. It wasn't so nice to see Elona all the time.

“You guys look so fluffy without me. ”

“Master!”

Calmond comes close and hugs me with all his might.

It's a little overwhelming, isn't it? But I have taken his error level to the next level. He's a savior, not a master.

At that moment, the status window appeared.

I took a moment to look over the status window, taking his greetings.

“You're doing better than I thought. ”

You must have worked very hard. Rank up one to become a 4-star, and level up 4 to reach 45.

If you consider the difficulty of leveling up from 30 onwards, you have worked really hard.

There was a huge pile of unseen traits.

I feel like there are tons of presents in the rewards tab that I clicked later while playing mobile games?

Negotiation and narrative characteristics, as well as the characteristics needed to operate the company, such as human resources management.

What was even more surprising was that his power related traits were only daggered, and he was skilled in archery, sword, and spear as well. B through C rank.

“You've been working hard lately? ”

“Of course. We're working on something a little different to get stronger. ”

“Mastering multiple weapons? ”

I admire Kalmond, who was flabbergasted. He smiles brightly.

“You're a master. It's amazing that you recognize it all at once. ”

“Usually we do that a lot. Knowing the nature of the opponent's weapon makes it easier to react to the opposite. Good training technique.Any luck? ”

“It's not enough to call it achievement yet. There are gaps in the training grounds. ”

Spinel interrupts.

“Don't even say it. Thanks to Mr. Calmond, the maids complained that we have to turn the lights on every night at the training ground. ”

“That's what I'm telling the maid to do! ”

“It just is. Hahaha.”

Kalmon frowns at Spinel, turning his head back to me and smiling brightly.

“I think you've had it for too long. Have a seat over here.”

“Wait. You didn't even get to meet Spinel. ”

I shook Spinel's hand instead. I wanted to say hello, but I also wanted to see how well he accomplished.

In a nutshell, there was no big change. Level went up to 30 and several attributes were added.

Added properties are fusion, alchemy, and mechanical engineering. It seemed to be a skill I learned while excavating new materials this time.

It was particularly noted that my appeal rose to 91.

Compared to others, it is low, but it will be only a matter of time before the circle of fate is created. We plan to provide him with endless schematics from now on.

“Come, let's sit down. ”

We sat around in our seats. The comfort of the couch made me feel comfortable.

Starting with the company's policy story, we received a report on the recent status of merchants in Adeline territory. It looks worse than what Janrov heard.

“But when there's a war, don't merchants usually touch money for supplies? ”

I asked, and Calmond answered.

“This is a little bit different because it's more like a conflict than a war. Rather, the trade routes were blocked and several merchants were hit. Astria territory is an important point, so if you don't get through there, things from the south won't come up. The big merchants buy and resell goods from other continents and make huge profits, which makes it difficult to sustain. ”

“I see.”

I kicked my tongue. The problem between the Astrians and the Delfinos seems to need to be resolved quickly.

“What specifically are we doing on our end? ”

“We are helping the merchants in trouble with the investment nomination, but this will benefit us later. If we don't repay it in time, we acquire control. ”

“Did you buy your shares? ”

“Something similar, I'd say. ”

I nodded. But I drew the line just right.

“Still, don't take control. We don't have the luxury of running things ourselves. Make it a point. All we have to do is listen. ”

“I'm already doing that. ”

Well, there was Eluna.

Buying shares was also a strategy that came out of Elona's head. I don't think I need to be involved in this. All we have to do is draw a big picture.

This time it's Spinel's turn to water.

“You said the construction of the fountain pen cartridge was finished. I heard it on the way. What kind of stuff?”

“Do you remember when you asked me to study glue? ”

“You can't possibly not fly. That's our core business. ”

“I stumbled upon it while studying the viscosity of the adhesive. I put glue on the tree and forgot to leave it on. What's waterproof? so I could make a barrel that would keep the ink out. ”

“What a coincidence.”

“Say it's a miracle. ”

“Hahaha.”

I couldn't help but laugh at his nuance. I nodded and paid him a visit.

“Well done. Once the production base is completed on the Turret, it will immediately enter mass production." Then we sell our goods across the kingdom and enter the continent across the kingdom. ”

“You have to go to the New World. There's going to be a lot of demand there. ”

“Wherever people live, I plan to sell them all. So we're making progress on the glue? ”

“Nothing yet. Well, if you ask me to use it, I might get something useful, but I think I need to refine it. It's really not easy to solve this paradoxical proposition of keeping things sticky and sticky for a long time. ”

I understand. The invention is always cold and hungry.

But I have the ability to overcome such difficulties from the position of the owner.

“Anyway, if you need anything in terms of development, charge me. This is our core business and we need to develop it as soon as possible. ”

“I'll keep that in mind.”

I stretched my waist and looked around. And I meant what I said.

“Our company is growing steeply, but there are going to be a lot of invisible forces after us. Humans are jealous animals. So the better off we are, the better we look around. Especially behind you. ”

“I understand.”

That concludes the meeting.

“Calmond, prepare something for the second prince today. Where do we rendezvous? ”

“I've decided to meet you in the woods outside Adelina. It's 10: 00 p.m.”

“The woods.”

“Near the cemetery, to be exact. I went to the dictionary to pick up some important stuff, but it was kind of creepy. ”

“Really?"

However, it will be difficult to cast dark magic inside the city. There's a geographical advantage to that, if you're near a cemetery where you can get a body easily.

“Got it. Calmond, go get ready. Spinel, go make some glue." ”

“No, you know what glue is that easy to come by? ”

“It's possible for you. ”

“Hahaha. That's true. Let's give it a try. ”

Calmond and Spinel leave. It was intentional to send the two out. It was because I had to tell a story that only Eluna should hear.

“What's the status of the shipment? ”

“Nothing in particular is wrong. ”

“What's enchanted? ”

The grade of the magical item cannot be verified by Calmond who prepared this item. I can't handle Mana. Only when Eluna arrives did she check the goods again.

“It was the best. The second one will be satisfied. ”

“The problem is they get caught before they're satisfied. ”

“But don't you think if you put tracking magic on it, it'll detect the second one, too? ”

I nodded.

“You can feel Mana because you're a Mana user. But you won't feel a trace of magic. There's magic emanating from the ingredients themselves. If I mix my magic into it, you won't even know I'm tracking it. ”

“I see. If you remove the magical power suspiciously, you lose the function of the magical ingredient itself. ”

I flicked my fingers and pointed at Eluna.

“That's what we use. Using a crystal ball like a compass. Just like we did with the Black Ones before. ”

“By the way, how is Confucius Hamel going to fix this? ”

“I think I would like to escort an academic and a lawyer familiar with dark magic to preserve the site and obtain evidence. If that's the case, the second one's dead. ”

“Everything is in the Master's hands. ”

You're right.

If I set the site on fire by mistake, or if I give you a chance to do some cloaking, it's a horror trap. So we have to be careful.

“Let's wait for the night. ”

“Shall I come with you? ”

“No. This is my family's business. I'll take care of it myself. You wait here. ”

“I understand.”

I took a sip of tea and leaned comfortably onto the couch.

I've been seeing a lot of people since I got back to Adeline. So I felt like it's been a long time since I've enjoyed this relaxation.

* * *

The night came, and I went to Jim's Wagon before I left to cast a spell.

Magic was learned from Chris last night. It was not particularly difficult because it was not to convert magic into elements, but just to put it in itself.

I breathed my mana into the most expensive magical ingredient, 'Moonlight Herb’.

Growing up in the moonlight for a hundred years, 'Moonlight Herb’ is a very powerful magical object, so it was hard to sense my magic.

I finished the job and pulled the marbles out of my pocket.

Then you inject Mana and spark it. Soon Sparks began pointing in the exact direction of the Moonlight Herb.

“Good. Let's go. ”

“I'll be back.”

Calmond climbs into the wagon, and a three-carriage carriage slowly begins to cross the street at night.
