Chapter 203

Episode 203 In the end (5),

there were quite a few items that the Meister had designated to be delivered, as if there was a reason for calling in 200,000 gal. The same goes for the materials to buy.

One I am someone. Aren’t you the owner of the inventory?

Since we haven’t yet prepared lunch boxes and drinking water, there will be plenty of space. You can leave a few things in the workshop and pick them up when you come back.

I made the most of my inventory and left the workshop with my hands empty.

It is an aside that the Meister was very upset when he saw that. Well, later on, I changed to like it because I thought it wouldn’t cause anything to get damaged.

“There is no reason for you to insult my invention—!”

However, while purchasing materials, he realized that the amount was insufficient—even though he had delivered all the requested items and received full payment—and returned to the workshop for a while.

For some reason, a sharp shout was heard from inside the workshop where the door was open. It was the Meister’s cry.

“Ha, this is an insult to your advice. That means you are young. “Isn’t it true that you are wasting your time?”

Can I enter this?

I thought for a moment in front of the building. Meanwhile, the conversation continues inside.

“My research is now a waste...!”

“So if this isn’t a waste, what is? “I’ve been spending money for nine years and not getting any results?”

Wow... look at the level of remarks.

“The purpose of your research is the same. As for magic items that work without magical power, they probably heat water, produce weak light, and other little things like that. What value is there in that? “What difference do you think it will make if ordinary people have it?”

“At least there will be no reason to open my hands to a wizard like you!”

“Anyone who is thinking of opening their hands to a magician has the necessary financial resources. And they come to us not to turn on the lights or heat the water, but for much more than that.”

Separately, I don’t think you know how valuable it is to heat water or provide even a weak light, and what it means for it to be given to the general public.

“You too, look at reality now! Don’t get hung up on things that don’t work, do something bigger! Why are you using your talent for something like that? “What you need to do is develop stronger magic and better magic items, not some nonsense!”

I was dumbfounded when I heard that.

It’s ridiculous to say that you should do something else instead of what you want to do with someone else’s talent, which isn’t your talent, or that it’s not your job.

“Use your talents for the right things!”

You don’t even know how fortunate it is to be able to do what you want to do, or what kind of luck it is to be born with the right talent.

“This fucking bastard—”

“It’s ridiculous to blame your own intelligence and abilities on others. “Did you want to prove that all you can do is move your tongue?”

“...!”

“What...”

I chose to step forward even though I knew that we were not in a relationship like this and that this was Kabung’s territory.

“If you don’t want to, but you have time to discuss other people’s circumstances, erase your incompetence, you trash.”

Anyway, I don’t know if there were other topics to argue about, but I could never give up on this topic.

“Do you think I am who you say like that? “I am a wise man...!”

“The magic tower is also very rotten. “The only thing this wise man knows how to do is show off his position instead of his skills.”

“This bastard. “What do you know...!”

“At least I know that you are incompetent and incompetent. “Whether you are a sage or a great sage, if it was something you could do, there would be no way you would be asking a great master to develop it on your behalf.”

okay. Even if it is not my job, I cannot bear to step down.

“And in the public, that kind of thing is usually called incompetence, trash.”

I already know how miserable people become the moment they are unable to achieve their dreams despite their talent.

“...Phew. Puhahaha!”

Did he sublimate his anger and sublimate it again into an impassioned speech? The meister who was listening to that burst out laughing. I think it was funny that the wizard couldn’t properly refute it and just got attacked.

Even though it seems to me that he can do it well.

“Did you hear that, you incompetent trash sage? “If you’ve heard it, I’d like you to turn it off now.”

It’s a bit difficult to react calmly when you’re on the chopping block. If you think about it, it was easy for me to talk about it because it was someone else’s problem.

“...But that doesn’t change the fact that what you’re doing now is worthless! Do you think that making small things like that possible will change the world in a big way?!”

More than that, why is that wizard bastard being so mean? Are you a maggot?

“Even foolishness becomes comedy when it reaches its limit. go away. “The world will change more than you think.”

“What do you know when you’re not even a wizard?”

I raised my eyebrows at the wizard’s words.

Did you ask modern people, who know how much life has changed since the development of electricity, about the value of developing that battery? As far as I know, that battery is almost at the level of electric development?

“You don’t have to be a wizard to know that light brightens the darkness. If this becomes widespread, anyone will be able to efficiently use the nights they used to spend just sleeping. How can there be no value in that?”

“That is still possible! “What’s the point of something like that...!”

“under. Don’t you really know what it means to be able to brighten up the night to your heart’s content without consuming expensive oil and candles? “How did you become a wise man with a head like that?”

I looked at the wizard with sincere contempt. Then the wizard rattled. I don’t know what it was, but I guess my disdain was clearly felt.

“go away. I won’t waste my time on someone who doesn’t care about gold. “That would be a true ‘waste.’”

But I don’t want to say more here. I walked inside and passed the wizard. It is an aside that I straightened my back and tightened my body to make it look as big as possible.

The wizard, who was about to say something, kept his mouth shut and watched me pass by. This guy scared me. I had an intuition that was close to certainty.

“...You will regret it later!”

Look at me. If I hadn’t been scared, I wouldn’t have said something so cliché and would have just refuted it.

“I hope you regret treating me like this!”

“I definitely would have told you to fuck off.”

I will not refuse such a favor. I put a berry in my mouth. It was sweet and sour.

Jinglang.

“Oh my, thank you!”

I paid 15000 gal. This will make Frederick feel a bit better. In my mind, I think of a horse that is uncomfortable because it is stuck in a stable.

“Are you not interested in anything else?”

“cherry.”

“Wow, you have some eyes. “They were just harvested this morning.”

After putting the blueberries in a cloth, I also picked up some cherries and apricots. This is what I will eat.

Crunchy.

Hey, look at the juice. I bit into the second apricot, feeling slightly better from the ripe sweetness.

Before long, the destination began to come into view.

“From here on, civilian access is prohibited. Please identify yourself.”

With a clanking sound, the soldiers guarding the door moved their windows. The two windows that cross in the shape of an X and cover the door are exactly like the picture. Discipline is in place.

“I came after receiving a request.”

“Request... Are you an adventurer? “If so, please show me your card.”

Well, if the military discipline of a city where battles occur frequently is not strong, that would be a problem.

After submitting my card, I waited in front of the door while it was checked. The soldier who received the card, wondering if the gatekeeper himself was checking it, left his colleagues and went somewhere else in shock.

“....”

“....”

Rather, this soldier’s lips twitch slightly and his gaze continues to glance at me. Do you have something to say to me?

“...I.”

Should I say, ‘What are you looking at?’ or not. As I was pondering this, the soldier who was looking sideways spoke first.

His body was stiff and he only moved his mouth for fear of being caught by someone else.

“I was grateful last time.”

However, the gaze is very soft. I did that even though I was seeing him for the first time. I do not know the reason.

“You may not remember, adventurer... but if you hadn’t come forward at that time, I probably would have died or lost my leg. I survived thanks to the adventurer. Thank you again.”

...Oh, I see. But when did I help you? The only thing I did in this city was...

“Oh, that... I’m talking about suppressing devil worshipers.”

...there was. okay.

But have I ever saved a soldier? I just remember helping and suppressing the soldiers. It was dark and I was sleepy, so I didn’t pay attention to my surroundings properly when I cooperated, but whatever.

“...I just did what I had to do.”

Still, if that’s the case for the other person, that’s probably the case. It’s not bad news that he survived thanks to my interference.

So I answered hesitantly. The other person’s eyes were slightly bent.

“It’s just like what I heard.”

That question was what made me most curious about the situation. What. Where did you hear that? I heard it from someone.

“Confirmed!”

Meanwhile, the soldier who had carried the plaque returned.

“Take this and I will show you around. “Don’t go away from me.”

It was a bonus that a soldier followed them around to make sure that the visitors did not wander around carelessly due to their request.

In the meantime, the person who was talking to me turned into a stone statue again, as if asking when he had tried to talk to me. It’s kind of funny.

“Oh, that person...”

“Do you know someone?”

“I told you last time. At the checkpoint....”

“Ah.”

Anyway, I stepped inside under strict control. The soldiers resting on one side were whispering as to whether they were forcing them to follow the rules until the break.

Why? Everyone seemed to recognize me.

“You came on time.”

It was the same when we arrived at the parade ground, which seemed to be our destination. While the person who appeared to be the leader was dealing with me, some of the soldiers lined up rolled their eyes and whispered to their neighbors.

“Who opened the mouth?”

Although I was caught right away and received glares.

“I’m sure you’ve already heard the details of the request, right?”

Still, I don’t think they have any intention to criticize me in front of outsiders. The captain turned his attention to me again and continued the conversation.

“There is no need to use external personnel for reconnaissance... but the timing was right and we received recommendations, so we made a special request just this time.”

However, the overbearing tone of speech is not very favorable to me. ‘There is no need to use external personnel for reconnaissance’ and ‘recommendation’, which is why emphasis was placed on this part.

Apparently, this person had no intention of hiring me, but it seems the higher-ups noticed. I have no idea who put me in it.

“However, just because you are an adventurer, I will not tolerate disobeying orders, breaking rules, or behaving as you please. “Make sure.”

No, but who is it really? The captain’s attitude is none of my business as he is the kind of person who will part ways after work – I tend to meet people who are worse than that while working – and I would like to know who forced him to hire me.

Anyway, I don’t have any friends and it’s my first time in this city...?

“We leave in 30 minutes. In the meantime, listen to the unit’s rules from the unit commander and receive a harpoon.”

To say that the warrior party stabbed me... they had no reason to do so... What is it really?

I was caught in a mystery that I couldn’t solve. It was truly something I had no idea about.
