234 232 Rumor Contents

We broke up with Legs after a final meeting. In the meantime, they gave me free information about Grandpa Garth that I now have, but I have to pay a proper request for exploration and re-investigation.

The request fee to be paid, whatever information was available, was 30,000 G. It seems a little higher than the market, but I kept it excited to get it working there.

"Let's talk to Gumd first"

"Mmm."

When I put out my guild card at the guild reception and asked to meet the guild master, the receptionist responded immediately.

Rather than say rank, he still knew Princess Black Thunder's name. Sounds like it's already spreading to alliance officials.

Someone who looks like a secretary will guide you to the second floor of the guild.

"Hey, it's been a while. Looks like you've been working at Wolmut."

"Mmm."

Waiting in the room that was put through was the Guild Master of the Barbora Adventurers Guild. He was a former Rank A adventurer and a dragon crash gumd.

He was among those who fought alongside Falund and others during the evil man incident in Barbora. He's a huge hammer with a height too, and I'm impressed he was blowing up Linford's giant. That was really helpful then.

"If it hadn't been for the end of the case, I'd have gone to see it too."

"I have no choice."

"No, I wanted to see a fight between your daughter and Fermus! His yarn is a real pain in the ass!

Between those who acted as Rank A Adventurers in the same city called Barbora. It's not just face-to-face, maybe we've done requests together. Aliases are dragon hunting and dragon crashing, and you were partying?

Instead, when I listened, what a real ex-party buddy. When it comes to Rank A Party 'Dragon Killers', it sounds like a legendary party. It's just cold if someone else tells you it's legendary or something, but it's weird because it sounds more like a good outfit when the Rank A adventurer talks.

"So, what's up today? You're not saying you came to see my face, are you?

Don't talk fast and help. Fran told him he was looking for Grandpa Garth and asked him if he knew where he was.

"I see where Lord Garth is..."

"Where are you now?

"I'm sorry. I don't know, I had my weapon maintained 10 days ago. I'm pretty sure he was in Barbora until that day."

But Gumd also says he doesn't know the footsteps that follow.

"He did say things like heading to Ulmut...... I don't know when you left."

"Yes."

Don't you know even Gilmouth? I don't have a choice. I don't think I have any more information, and do you want to go to the Blacksmith Guild? That's what I thought and tried to take a seat, but Gilmouth opened his mouth before that.

"Yes, sir, is there also some grudge against mercenaries?

"Hmm?"

"No, I heard some weird rumors."

"What rumors?

"Princess Black Thunder hates big mercenaries, and all hostile mercenaries are killed, or mercenary regiments that don't care are crushed, or sorcery flies unquestioned once the mercenaries are in sight, that's a rumor."

What? Why did you get that rumor?

"There are some mercenaries in this town, but they're totally freaked out. They're contacting me."

By inquiry, you mean you've heard firsthand that maybe Princess Black Thunder doesn't like mercenaries?

"Nothing, it doesn't matter because you're a mercenary"

"Oh, yeah?

"If you're an enemy, just crush it"

"... well"

"Mmm."

But in all retrospect, you've smashed mercenaries that have been involved several times in the past. Yes, the first memorable entanglement should also have been an ex-mercenary. You said the adventurers you beat up in Aretha's Adventurer Guild were ex-mercenaries.

Besides, in Urmut, there was a mercenary regiment of Blue Cats, blue pride and a single stuffing. It's the Beast Kings who crushed them directly, but it could look like Fran did something from someone he doesn't know.

I guess it was also because of the rumors that the guys I met on their way to Barbora, called the Dimru Mercenaries, were so frightened.

From them, Fran was a tyrant who said he hated mercenaries because he was a powerful man who could instantly kill himself, and that he would not forgive those who didn't like them. That's freaking me out.

"Well, that's what I'll tell the mercenaries, then?

"Do that."

"And I have one more favor to ask."

"Request?"

"Oops. Expect that arm crossing each other with a Rank A Adventurer."

What do you mean, some kind of nasty warcraft crusade? I'm having trouble being held for a long time.

If that's what you think, he's very different.

"There are a few guys in my guild that I've been eyeing, and I want to show them how awesome they are up there. I want a mock fight."

"What if Gumd does it?

"They've been taking care of you since you were a kid, and you take it for granted to beat me or Fallen. I just beat him up now, and he won't regret it."

I know it's overwhelming, and if you're dealing with someone like your master, maybe you don't think losing is too obvious.

"I won't let you take that much time. How about tomorrow morning or something?

"I don't mind."

"Okay! Then I'll get the kids, please! I need you to break those guys' noses in a pocket! Well, you're older than the lady! Gahahahahaha"

"Mmm."

Meet with Gumd in detail for tomorrow's rally time, and now it's time for Fran to leave the Adventurers Guild.
