75 – I wasted my time – 2

A few days have passed since the ceremony and the party that followed. When the work to absorb the Caltrend territory into the kingdom began, Cecil returned to the principality.

And the warrior party also returned to the battlefield. He seemed to want to stay longer, but it was because General Leoden came and said that he needed the support of the warrior party. By the time the girls, who seemed quite reluctant, eventually left and the palace became quiet as usual.

I also got up from my seat to move.

“Um… so you mean you have to go back to the duchy?”

“Yes.”

The queen, who was sitting in her office, pressed her forehead. As Lucille grew up, her worries about her successor decreased, but the fatigue of the queen seemed to increase as more things related to diplomatic relations and the absorption of Caltrend territory increased.

In the meantime, it would be more troublesome to say that I, who was in charge of Lucille’s education, was going out.

“Are you going to take Lucille with you?”

“no.”

I’m going to go back and forth by teleportation, but I don’t think I’ll take someone else with me.

Is that why? The Queen nodded with a much improved face and smiled softly.

“Then I’d like to entrust you with a few things… can you do it for me?”

“Listen.”

“As an envoy, Dwarven City and…”

“Ah. I won’t do that.”

To use it as a special envoy to another race means that the kingdom will occupy a diplomatic advantage.

It took a lot of time and didn’t give me achievements, so I wasn’t interested in it.

“…That’s right. I was wondering if I could help.”

“No need.”

The queen, who used me as a weapon without much merit, let out a big sigh.

“Sage. I can’t ask you anything because I don’t know what you want. All right. Goodbye. Will you speak to Lucille?”

“Isn’t Lucille going to the Caltrend estate right now?”

“right.”

“I’ll be busy for a while, so there’s no need to talk. I’ll just go.”

In order to absorb the Caltrend estate into the royal family, Lucille, who needed practical experience, went there herself.

Of course, she wasn’t alone. Like Raquel or the Lily Knights.

Other than that, there are other loyal servants with me, so there won’t be any problems without me.

I continued my thoughts as I left the Queen’s office and left Baekam Palace.

There are two achievements that can be eaten raw by clearing events related to Cecil. And if you go through the linked quest, you can get one, so there are three in total.

I checked the remaining achievements. As if the efforts made so far were shining, the windows related to achievements were filled in quite a lot.

let’s just go like this Just like this.

After slowly drawing a blueprint for the future, I returned to my room and immediately used teleportation. The place to go is the capital of the principality.

As soon as I arrived at a corner of the bustling city, I headed straight to the adventurer’s guild.

“come here!!”

“Huh?! Isn’t that the wise man?!”

“Ohhhh~ I heard you settled in the fortress kingdom, so what happened to the principality?”

Like Bupyeongcho, there were quite a few adventurers I knew among the adventurers in the principality.

Among them, I raised my hand towards the one-eyed, bald spearman.

“Oh? Six Man? You here?”

Sixth Man Outin. He is a human warrior and an A-class adventurer like me. As soon as he saw me, he stuck out his tongue and frowned.

“What is it? Sage. Didn’t you ruin your life as an adventurer while being a teacher for the kingdom’s princess?”

“Slap. More than that, are there any promotion requests related to S-class adventurers?”

“You’re trying to get promoted? But haven’t you met your quota yet?”

“It fills up quickly.”

“If so.”

The Sixth Man tilted his head and smiled. Then, after handing over a document from his bosom, he spoke leisurely.

“I’ll share the information… Is the party still stable?”

“Huh? Huh.”

“Then let’s do it together. How is it?”

“It won’t matter.”

In order to be promoted to S-class adventurer, you must have a party of five.

As Jirobo-sensei also said, if 5 people get together, one person is trash.

Among the adventurers who already have a lot of trolls, Six Man is a decent guy, so it would be okay to join him as a party member.

“Okay. Then take it.”

I sighed as I read the request list written on the document Sixth Man gave me.

In the game, dirty quests that had to be completed to become an S-class adventurer were all piled up.

“I’ve only collected really messy quests.”

Or kill the messenger of Nemesis, who is immune to all attacks.

Or kill the nine-headed hydra.

Or kill the nine cannibals in the Great Forest.

Or finding the hidden treasure house of the great thief Laudin.

Exploring the ruins left by the god of devastation.

“Where. Sage. What is the request worth doing?”

When the S-class adventurer promotion review begins, you must select one of these and process it. Of course, only one request per team can be accepted.

If they failed, they would only have to suck their fingers until the next promotion review, so everyone had no choice but to be sensitive to these requests.

“Hmm…”

“Since you’re a wise man who knows everything, you know it’s okay, right?”

“I know, but it’s a bit like saying it now.”

Only then did Six Man look around. The adventurers around them pretended not to hear and kept their ears pricked up.

The Sixth Man who saw it showed his teeth and growled, but the adventurers around him only snorted or raised their middle fingers.

“Let’s talk about this later when the party members gather.”

“Then I’ll let you gather the party members. Is that okay?”

“I’ll tell you, but there’s no one to give you a carriage ride, so collect them on your own.”

The Sixth Man smirked and left with the other werewolves waiting at the entrance.

ruler. So, the S-class adventurers are over…

“Are you commissioned?”

“Ah. Yes. Sage. Let’s see… Currently on request…”

Among the quests from the dukedom, there were quite a few single-person quests that people didn’t do. Among them, there was a request I was looking for, so after accepting all the requests including that one, I came out right away.

“Now… Then.”

One of the preparations for clearing the Dragon’s Curse event.

The time has come to clear the E-class client ‘The Dream of Old Age’.

The request was given to a small house in a corner of the capital of the principality. The owner of the small two-story house was none other than a gray-haired old man.

“Oh… go, thank you…”

And the content of the request was simple. He wanted to exterminate monsters in the forest outside the capital of the principality.

I dreamed of becoming a warrior when I was young, but I just lived because I was hit by life, and now that the end is approaching, I wanted to experience combat.

“Thanks for letting me know…”

The old man shook his hands. Although he killed small monsters, called goblins, with his own hands, the impact was not too great.

“…That’s impossible for me.”

“Is that so?”

“Yeah… I’ve learned that each person has something to do with it… Whoa… Thank you.”

“Not much to say. Um… But I don’t think the old man’s past has been wrong.”

“…thank you.”

Everyone doubts their choices. Especially if it was a choice that determined your whole life.

Returning home, the old man spoke calmly. He said that he had the option of becoming a mercenary when he was young and the option of continuing the family business.

It is said that he did not know until now whether the choice he made was right or not.

Still, it’s good to know that your choice was right even now.

When he returned home, the old man smiled warmly.

“Thank you… and the reward… is this really okay?”

“Ah. Of course.”

The old man took out a silver key from his pocket. A silver key that I don’t know what it’s for, and I think I’ll get a couple of silver coins if I sell it to a shop.

Anyone who has played the game knows that that is the key item that easily solves the Dragon’s Curse event.

“A customer left it for me when I was doing business in the past. He said that someday, when I am confident in my life, I will give it to him…”

After saying that, the old man placed the key in my hand.

“If it wasn’t for the wise man, I wouldn’t have been sure in my life. Thank you…”

He looked quite relieved as he bowed and bowed. I said goodbye to him and left the alley.

ruler. Then, the next thing is to hire a competent priest… Shall we go to church first?

“what?”

A familiar voice was heard. When I turned my head…

“Huh? Why are you here?”

“What I want to ask…?”

A silver-haired beauty in a black robe.

Veronica, wearing casual clothes, not a nun’s uniform, was standing there with a complicated face.

“Why are you here?”

“Uh. That’s…”

“Shh… stay still.”

Suddenly, Veronica grabbed me and pushed me against the wall.

No, this is a wall knock?!

An arm rested next to my head and Veronica’s body clung to mine.

A sweet breath tickled his nose, and a beautiful face appeared before his eyes.

If you move a little, you can kiss.

“…Whew…”

After a while, Veronica slightly moved away from me and scratched her cheek in embarrassment.

“M-I’m sorry.”

“No, it’s fine. But what is it?”

“Actually… I was investigating because information related to the xie jiao came in.”

Even if the black traitor issue was resolved, Veronica was still the Heretic Questioner. The church was influencing all over the continent, and the principality was also recognizing the church.

As such, it was not wrong for the church to deal with the dangerous cults that were secretly operating here.

“Hmm…”

What was the xie jiao on the side of the principality?

“It must have been the silver blade of the spear.”

“…You know? That’s right. The silver blade. Traces of human sacrifice were found in Torreybon Village…”

In short, it is a pseudo-religion that practices human sacrifice.

They have their headquarters in the principality, and they were dispatched to eradicate them.

“To think he didn’t mind a field job even though he’s a cardinal. Great.”

“Because it hurts to be still. And this is what I have to do.”

Saying it as if it were natural, Veronica looked around. It seems that he was looking for the person he had been following earlier.

“Can I help you?”

“Huh? Really?”

“I had some time left. And I also had something to ask you for help with.”

In fact, you can bring any competent cleric without asking Veronica.

Wouldn’t it be better to write someone you know?

Veronica stared at me, then grinned, smirking like a Cheshire cat, and casually took my arm.

“Oh~ I’m just trying to use the cardinal of the church. Then I can’t use it~”

“If you don’t like it, quit.”

“No, I’m kidding. You really… uhh. What do I need help with?”

“I have to lift the dragon’s curse. I need your help at that time.”

“…The curse of the dragon? Could it be that… the affair of Prince Cecil Claudia’s family?”

“Huh? Huh.”

Veronica kept her mouth shut and stared at me. why is he like this again

“…What’s your relationship with the princess? And you know what? If you lift the Claudia family’s curse, you have to marry someone from that family?”

Where else did he hear strange stories like this?

I poked Veronica’s forehead with my finger at the voice that never changed.

“You’re wrong. You don’t have to get married.”

To be precise, you can ask for anything from the Claudia family.

In general, the men and women of Claudia’s family are quite attractive both externally and internally, so it’s just that many people wanted to marry someone from that family, so it was just that.

“Ah … ahhhh! Right! Yes!”

Veronica was embarrassed with a red face, then tapped my chest.

“Hey, hey, hey! Sage! There’s nothing I don’t know! Yes! Helping others is so wonderful! Yes! I’ll help too!”

It’s nice to see you lively!
