Price of Management

The next day, I went to the mercenary guild with Hansen.

Professional groups such as Magic Guild, Blacksmith Guild, Carpenter Guild, and Thief Guild exist in each region.

These guilds work for the cooperation and development of the same profession. If you are a professional from another country and cannot join this guild and get permission, you will not be able to produce.

The same is true of mercenaries. Mercenary Guilds exist in each region and are used to connect clients and mercenaries for a certain fee.

Mercenaries were treated and even killed if they acted without the permission of the mercenary guild. Clients can't hire mercenaries if they hate the mercenary guild.

Because of this, in some areas, mercenary guilds have been extremely aggressive, such as defrauding quests or demanding bribes.

I walked into the old office of the mercenary guild, and there were many mercenaries looking for work.

When they found Hansen with me, they flashed their eyes.

“Hire me! ”

“No one will follow me if I'm good at it! ”

“I've sent over a hundred men with 15 years of mercenary experience! ”

“Have you heard of the Blood Sod? A nickname that refers to me! ”

A week of starvation, the children struck out as if they had found a slum.

Due to the recent years of no significant warfare, the work of mercenaries has been greatly reduced. It wasn't hard for mercenaries to pursue a quest like that.

“Hansen.”

“Ugh, yes. ”

“Clear a path. ”

“Hehe.”

Despite the tears, Hansen thrust mercenaries from side to side.

“Out of the way! Coming through! Get out of the way!”

“What the fuck! ”

“Push who, you distant bastard! ”

“You want to play a game? ”

“Hire me or I'll cut your long legs in half!" ”

As the mercenaries brutally cursed, Hansen became terrified and depressed. However, as I worked hard not to give in, I thought I picked one of my employees well.

After all that trouble, I could barely get into the mercenary guild office.

What a hard time.

In fact, the order of the Houdini was a neighbouring territory. And this body is a very spiritual person! If you don't hire mercenaries, it doesn't matter much.

But you have to be careful about safety.

Clumsy monsters like Cobalt may encounter a group of powerful Orcs or encounter a large monster like a Troll.

If you are careless that this is only a chance, you will go to one.

“Welcome. What kind of quest are you here for? ”

A middle-aged man who works for a mercenary guild has a clean face without a scar. He did not appear to be a mercenary-related employee, just by looking at the belly of the puddle. Perhaps the administrative position was to hire a specialist.

“I am Baron Kunt's third son, Caroc Kunt, Lord of the Caroc Grain Chamber. We're looking for a small mercenary to escort us to the Houdini Order. ”

“Do you have any mercenaries you'd like to name in particular? ”

“I'd like to meet the Dean Mercenaries. ”

“Very well. One moment, please. ”

The middle-aged man ran somewhere.

I read the description of Dean Mercenaries on the list that Hansen brought me yesterday. They're only four small mercenaries, but they all say they're outstanding and credible in their seventh year of service.

Shortly after, the middle-aged man returns with four mercenaries. Your mercenaries are Dean Mercenaries.

One of the mercenaries steps forward.

“This is Dean, Master of the Dean Mercenaries. It is an honor to meet Confucius Carroc of the Kunt Family. ”

You also know your manners towards nobles.

Dean was a robust man who appeared to be in his mid-30s. Short blonde hair, bronze skin, thick jaw line and strong eyes.

“I'm Lex. ”

“I'm Mark. ”

“Hans.”

The other three also briefly introduced themselves.

I asked Dean.

“I hear you all have seven years of experience in mercenaries. How good are you? ”

“Before I was a mercenary, I was a member of the Horn Empire. I served as a Dozen for 10 years, and the other three served as a general soldier for five years. All four jobs were longevity workers. ”

“The Horn Empire? ”

I was quite surprised.

The Horn Empire is a military empire on the border with our Kingdom of Leaden. The Horn Empire army is famous for its heavy weapons and training. As long as you're from the Horn Empire, your skills are guaranteed.

“Then we won't need to check your skills. How much will it cost me to escort you back and forth to the Duke of Hoodini? ”

“Thirty Redinas.”

“I'll take the wagon. The wagon only takes 14 days a week in total. ”

“25 Redina.”

Dean calls for a reduced commission.

I smiled.

“And I am a lesser spirit. ”

The Dean Mercenaries were all surprised.

“Do you think I'm lying? ”

“…… 20 Redina. ”

I think I can hire six of those mercenaries out there swarming like beggars with 10 Redinas. When there's no work these days, the mercenaries' ransom falls as well.

Nevertheless, Dean's attitude to maintain a high price reveals his pride that they are not cheap.

Okay, I like it.

“Bargaining might be more discouraging, but you seem proud of your skills, so I'll stop shaving them. I'll pay you 20 Redinas. ”

“Thank you."

Dean looks down, smiling slightly, to see if he was happy with my respect.

“We leave tomorrow. Be armed and ready until then. ”

“Yes, Confucius Carroc. ”

When the contract was concluded, I gave 20 Redinas to the mercenary guild staff.

The quest fee was stored in the Mercenary Guild to prevent mercenaries from escaping. When the quest was completed, the system paid the remaining amount except 5% commission.

Transportation borrowed two wagons from the family. Borrowed a wagon and told Arthur what you wanted so much.

Chet, we can't help it.

I, Baron Kunt's third son, was not allowed to ride the wagon without proper clearance. At least two wagons have to show up on board to live face to face.

The Dean mercenaries appear armed with leather armor and spears.

Me and Hansen were in the wagon, Mark and Hans were in the wagon seat. Master Dean and Lex climb on the roof of the wagon.

“Why don't you just come inside? ”

“No. How will you accompany your client?" Plus, it's nice to be able to be vigilant around here. ”

“Well, make yourself at home. ”

“Then I'll be on my way. ”

“Ah.”

Soon after, Mark of the stableman whips. Both of Phil's horses start dragging the wagon forward.

The destination was the House of Houdini.

The Dean mercenaries were outnumbered. While I was working as a vigorous member of the Horn Empire, I didn't notice much fun in small talk.

But I know how to get along so quickly because 90 years of life isn't just about living it.

“You're from the Horn Empire? ”

Dean answers when he asks Dean on the wagon.

“Yes, I was in the 14th Legion. ”

“The Horn Empire is famous for its elite service, but I'm curious as to how it went. ”

If you ask a soldier to talk about his army, he'll be open soon.

“The main operation of our 14th legion was to wipe out monsters. It was really dangerous when fighting Ogres. ”

“Oh, my God, the ogre? ”

“Yes. They were all ambushed in the middle of the night, almost to the commander's goal. It was dark, and the commander of the military came from a millennium of noble background, so he didn't respond well enough, giving birth to more than a thousand victims. ”

Gradually, Dean's words opened, and soon Lex, Mark, and Hans became involved in the story and began to blossom with memories of military service.

“That's right, that's right. That's when I almost met my dead father. ”

“That idiot commander's orders were amazing. ”

“Hahaha, I know." Do something! "’Was it?'

“Khahaha!”

Hansen and I fell in love with their story, and so we quickly became close.

As the day begins late, Dean searches for a place to camp and decides to spend the day near the stream.

It was just Hansen and me sleeping in the wagon, but Dean's mercenaries were busy outside, setting fire and preparing for bed.

Whew!

The wind was pretty cold because it was late in the fall. I asked Dean.

“There's a lot of breeze, but is homelessness okay? ”

“It should be cold, but don't worry, we've been camping in winter. ”

Dean speaks earnestly. Hmm, that's not so bad, though.

Ah! You had gnomes, right?

When I came up with a good idea, I immediately summoned gnome.

- You called him?

“Yes. I wanted to see our gnome. ”

- Me, too.

Noonum and I smiled at each other.

“That's a spirit. ”

“I've never seen anything like it. ”

Dean's group of mercenaries can't seem to get their eyes off him for the first time since they've seen him.

“Can you build a house out of dirt? ”

- Home?

“Yeah, about the size of three people sleeping inside. You don't have to build it hard just to block the wind. ”

- Shape?

“We should leave that to our gnomes. ”

- Okay, that'll be fun.

Noonum shines like a child trying to play with dirt. Soon, gnome picks up his shovel and starts digging hard for dirt.

The shovel literally moved like a thunderstorm.

Puck, puck.

It was a strange thing. You unpacked the shovel once and it piled up like a pile of dirt. In an instant, a pile of dirt was piled up to the size of an aggregate.

This is the power of spirits.

Not only did Hansen and Dean mercenaries, but I also couldn't take my eyes off what Noon was doing.

- Hiya!

When gnome swings the shovel with a cute clap, the earth shatters into a circular shape. He continued digging with a shovel to complete the round earthen house.
