Price of Management

What's the worst that can happen?

Of course it's war.

You need money to go to war.

Without the power of the Orient Kingdom, the Horn Empire cannot wage war.

This is an economically vulnerable Horn Empire, and has been further compromised by the major famine and black blood disease of Yoban times.

Then what is the true target of Emperor Kars?

I thought about it, but soon my mind got complicated and I got over it.

Then I suddenly thought about going to the mercenary guild here when I saw Patrick trying to break in.

Exactly!

There are many famous mercenaries in the Orient Kingdom.

In my past life, many mercenaries lost their reputation when the war broke out in the Horn Empire.

Among them was a respectable Supreme Mercenary who valued honor and dignity as an unworthy knight.

Just then, my father asked me to introduce him to a talented mercenary who could be a family knight.

“Should I catch something useful for a while? ”

“Yes?”

Patrick asked me a question.

“It's nothing. I'm gonna go outside for a bit, so stay here. ”

“I'll go with you. ”

“I'm going for a little walk. You don't have to do that. You keep practicing. ”

“Yes, go on then. ”

“Yes.”

I stepped outside and came out of the palace.

The crowds are crowded at a glance.

The monarch, the continent's largest metropolitan city, was also the landscape of Orien.

The Orient Kingdom is particularly powerful.

The root cause is the current Reinforcement Policy of the King of Orien, but the king would have also contributed to the overwhelming population of Orien.

The population of this city surpasses such a large territory.

As King Erik, you will be very envious of the Orient Kingdom.

The mercenary guild was also located in the suburbs of Orien. There are not many mercenary guilds in the castle.

The Mercenary Guild is a place where armed mercenaries come and go, so they don't enter the castle to maintain security.

“Looking for mercenaries? Then you can hire me! ”

“I traveled all over the continent at this age. If you're looking for a guide, you don't have to go far! ”

“Hire me! ”

“My Lord! Why don't you test my skills?" ”

Ah. This place was also a recession in the mercenary industry.

Mercenaries encamping in front of the Mercenary Guild rush at me like beggars.

There's only one way to do this.

“Salamander.”

- Heheh heh heh! I'm gonna burn them all!

The salamander, who evolved into an intermediate spirit, boasted an even cheaper character.

“Huff!”

“What is that? ”

“The Devil? Huh, the Black Wizard?! ”

The mercenaries have retreated from me like a tidal wave.

Salamander winces with a burning eagle whip, and Abigail sees the mercenaries screaming and running away.

“It's too much, you bastard! ”

- Heheh heh! Roasted beggars!

“Phew, I won't talk. ”

I kicked my tongue and went inside the mercenary guild.

The king's guild of mercenaries in Orwen was much larger and cleaner than that of King Leaden.

The clothing and work status of the employees also looked very good. I also felt like a guild in the top metropolitan city.

“Welcome, client. Please let me know if you have any requests. I'll take good care of you.”

Oh, my.

Sales attitude is also very good.

I said, taking out a large 20-odd gold coin and handing it over.

“I'd like to get a list of all the mercenaries residing in Orien as well. ”

“If you have a list of mercenaries stationed, they are sold in 1st Orrin. Please wait a moment."

“Oh, really? ”

As expected, the King is also a mercenary guild of Orwen!

Looks like the list is also being sold separately.

I could see him trying many different tactics against the recession of the mercenary industry.

He's got a great attitude.

The staff, along with the list, defied the 19th Orrin.

I handed over the list and asked the staff.

“Who is the General Manager of the Mercenary Guild here? ”

“This is Guild Master Neil Perry. ”

“Neil Perry? ”

“Yes. He's been a mercenary veteran for 30 years, and the fifth year King has been guild leader of the mercenaries guild in Orien. who came up with Expert Intermediate, and they haven't rusted yet. ”

The male employee who appeared to be in his early 20s explained it very kindly.

Hmm, Neil Ferrari.

I've never heard of him, but he seems like a great talent.

If you were a guild leader for five years in your 30s, you'd be in your mid-50s by now, right?

I am more interested in management skills than in the excerpt intermediate skill set.

“What time does the Neil Ferry Guild Master leave? ”

“You always come home at 6 p.m., but do you have any business with the Guild Master? ”

“No, thank you. ”

“Yes, goodbye. ”

I left the guild with a respectful greeting from the staff. I looked around the street, wondering where I could sit comfortably and rest.

Nearby, I saw a small, rustic restaurant called 'Afternoon Sunshine.’

Unglamorous and simple decor made it look like an inexpensive restaurant for the common people.

I went inside and ordered a grilled smoked duck and a bottle of red wine.

“Enjoy your meal. ”

I brought food ordered by a fat chef who looks like a host.

I chewed and chewed a grilled duck that smelled good because it was lightly smoked.

It tasted pretty good.

The onions and all kinds of vegetables were baked together and the flavor was good.

The red wine was reasonably edible after calling Wounded and enhancing the flavor.

After I finished eating, I took a sip of red wine and scoured the list I received from the mercenary guild.

The king also had a list of the statues of the mercenaries who were staying in Orien. Of course, most of them were new names.

“It's a service. Have some dessert. ”

The host grinds nuts such as peanuts, walnuts, nuts, and nuts to bring dessert with honey.

“Thank you for what you said. ”

“You're welcome. ”

“Then I should return the favor. ”

I handed him a 20-dozen gold coin from my pocket.

“Calculate. Tip the rest. ”

“Cow, customer. It's too much.”

“Tip.”

“Thank you!”

The host was excited to say hello. This is what it's like to come and go.

After 30 minutes of tasting dessert and red wine, I scoured the list. I was able to draw the right two mercenaries.

First, a mercenary named Hardin.

Aged 24 years, advanced user to come.

But from what I recall, in the next decade or so, I begin to make a name for myself as Expert's top mercenary.

Your skills will continue to evolve without moving into place and will eventually advance to a higher level.

I heard that you completed the quest because you were responsible.

Um, extras in 10 years. That means that if you are systematically trained under your father, you can be Expert faster.

In fact, Patrick trained under his father for less than half a year, so he came to Expert.

There are times when the training of an authentic knight family ceremony improves the skills of the lid after only gaining experience through hands-on grafting as a mercenary.

“Heh heh, okay. First of all, Harden. ”

The price will not be too expensive since it is still on the user level. And the other guy, who got my attention, was a mercenary named Richard Buck.

“Haha, he's here now! ”

I couldn't help laughing.

Richard Buck is 31 years old and already a top mercenary in the early years of Expert Medium.

As I recall, Richard Buck is later recruited to the Earl Lindell, one of the families of the post-school families.

In his 40s, when he became a knight of Earl Lindell, he slowly blossomed his talents.

After continuing to break the wall and raise the ramp, we reached Excellent Exports.

After the Horn Empire destroyed the Kingdom of Leaden, Richard Buck dropped an impressive sadness.

Richard Buck is connected to the Kunt family as well.

What kind of relationship?

In his former life, Richard Buck was my father's archenemy!

The angry father who lost his brother Rick led a postcoital attack after becoming under the command of Emperor Kars.

The fierce actions of the father who had been oppressed by evil were enough to plant fear in the aftershore camp.

So, after school, they send out a skilled person who can deal with their father.

That was Richard Buck.

Richard Buck was one of the few foes to stand against his father, who was called the Devil of War at the time. In fact, he fought with his father three times.

A draw from the first brawl.

In the second bout, the weary father withdrew first and won Richard Buck's victory.

However, in the third brawl, my father pretended to run away and succeeded in stabbing the Long Sword into Richard Buck's careless heart.

It was said to have been a victory of determination and determination.

However, Father said lonelily, "I can only win 1 game and lose 1 game, but I can never win again."

Anyway, it was a pleasure to see my father's adversary, Richard Buck, here.

You're still in Expert Intermediate. You can't be serious about your ransom.

“But Richard Buck, no one else, is worth investing in. ”

An Error level Knight should pay a lot of wages, but it's worth it.

Look at our Kunt family.

Four years ago, even back when we were a small, nameless family, our neighbors didn't bother us.

It was because he was the Lord of Excellency of Expert.

To come that far, the Expert Knights were worth the investment.

Now that the Kunt family was rich in finances, I had enough time to recruit one or two such good articles.

It is our family that takes 4 halves of the profits from the Caroc Armory and half the profits from the Iron Ore Mine.

After drinking all the dessert and red wine, I left the restaurant. I was a little dizzy because I was going to move again.

“Wounded.”

- Yeah!

When I enhanced the taste of red wine, Woundee, who was always with me, immediately healed me.

I felt like I was washed with clear water, and then the spirit flew away as if it had been washed away.

“Thank you, Woundee. ”
